After sitting for a while, Jiang Mingwei got up and left.
Li Yihuan originally wanted to get up and see her off, but she and Jiang Mingjin stopped her, telling her to stay in the room and rest.
There will be many more opportunities to give it to her in the future.
But now, she has to think about herself and the child in her womb.
Unable to persuade the two of them, Li Yihuan had no choice but to nod helplessly. Before leaving, she reminded Jiang Mingjin to treat Jiang Mingwei well and never make her angry again.
After Jiang Mingjin repeatedly agreed, he finally let the two of them leave.
As soon as they stepped out of the courtyard, the brother and sister smiled at each other. Even with so many years of misunderstandings between them, they still couldn't help but smile bitterly.
After seeing Jiang Mingwei off at the gate of the mansion, as she was about to leave, she turned back to give Jiang Mingjin a final word of advice.
"Don't tell your sister-in-law too much about that doctor. Don't pry into the past. The plan that Father and Uncle Li contributed back then may have hurt the doctor's family, but as children at the time, we did nothing wrong!"
"Moreover, my sister-in-law has already paid the price for things she didn't do, and so have we."
Li Yihuan is a very soft-hearted person.
If she knew about this, she might be so worried and unable to sleep all night.
Jiang Mingwei didn't want to see this happen...
Jiang Mingjin nodded, saying he understood.
“I have wronged you in the past. Now I know how ridiculous I was. If you ever encounter any difficulties in the future, you can tell me! As your older brother, I will never stand idly by.”
"I'm sorry, Mingwei, all of this... is what your brother owes you."
Jiang Mingwei smiled faintly, lowered her eyes to hide the loneliness in them, and ultimately said nothing. She got up and, with Hua Cui's help, got into the carriage and then left.
Watching the departing carriage, Jiang Mingjin was filled with sorrow and grief. His heart felt as if it were being violently clenched, the pain making it hard for him to breathe...
Then, can he still get along well with the little sister he once doted on?
The carriage swayed and rocked along the way. Although Jiang Mingwei's face showed a hint of loneliness, it had already vanished without a trace when she looked up.
Instead, he saw that little girl Hua Cui was looking at him with a grin.
Jiang Mingwei tilted her head and flicked her forehead.
Hua Cui cried out in pain, and when she came to her senses, she realized that Jiang Mingwei was staring at her with a mischievous grin.
She pouted, somewhat displeased, "Miss, how could you attack me while I was distracted?"
"You're lost in thought! Why are you staring in my direction? I've been watching you for ages, and you haven't reacted at all. I need to get your soul back to its place!"
With her lips pouting, Hua Cui's eyes were full of grievance.
"I'm so happy! It's not easy to see that Miss and Young Master's relationship has improved. Although I also feel that Young Master still needs to be observed and cannot be completely trusted."
“But ever since Miss left the Jiang family and married into the Wei family, I’ve never seen you two get along so peacefully as you do today. Hua Cui can’t help but think back to the past…”
As she spoke, she couldn't help but sigh.
This caused Jiang Mingwei's hard-won composure to turn somber and sad once again.
She has indeed received this belated apology, but what about the original owner of this body?
At this moment, Jiang Mingwei actually hoped that the original owner's thoughts would appear and quickly devour all her own ideas, even if only for a moment.
It would also allow her to hear her biological brother's repentance and apology.
Unfortunately, there aren't that many "what ifs" in the world.
After returning to the Wei family home, Jiang Mingwei got off the carriage and walked towards her courtyard with Hua Cui's help.
Even though Jiang Mingjin has agreed to help her investigate, Jiang Mingwei still feels that she cannot sit idly by and wait for her fate.
Since she already possesses excellent medical skills, she must do something about it!
There might be a way to counteract the effects of Natala incense!
We'll probably have to find a way to get some incense from somewhere, and then treat the symptoms accordingly.
If an antidote could be developed that wouldn't make people addicted, then the Northern Frontier's attempt to control Southern Jing would naturally vanish...
However, the sale of this incense in the capital has probably been tightened now, and it is by no means an easy thing to buy.
Where exactly should we get some?
If all else fails, we could just ask Wei Jing for it...
But he loathes this incense; would he really give it to him?
Just as Jiang Mingwei was lost in thought, Cao Cao spoke up.
When Jiang Mingwei saw Wei Jing and Qingfeng walking towards her, she paused slightly.
The two of them had not seen each other for many days.
From a distance, the man appears tall and slender, his deep blue robe accentuating his composed demeanor, like a fine piece of black jade, warm yet subtly sharp.
However, he seemed to have lost a lot of weight and looked very tired.
When Wei Jing passed by the pond and came face to face with Jiang Mingwei, he couldn't help but be slightly taken aback, as if he hadn't expected her to appear there.
He subconsciously wanted to go up and talk to Jiang Mingwei, but Jiang Mingwei glanced away, leaned slightly towards him, and then stepped forward.
The two brushed past each other without exchanging a single unnecessary word.
Until she left, leaving behind only a lingering fragrance, Wei Jing's eyes gradually shifted from initial shock to being filled with vulnerability and bewilderment...
He knew that, in the end, it was his own words and actions that day that hurt Jiang Mingwei, making her feel helpless and in pain.
It's understandable that they don't want to talk to him now.
"It's strange. In the past, when the First Madam saw you, she would always exchange a few pleasantries with you, General. Besides, she was quite concerned about the matter of the 'Duo Luo Xiang' (a type of incense). I didn't expect her to not say a word to you at all. Could it be that you... offended the First Madam at some point?"
Qingfeng spoke subconsciously.
As soon as she finished speaking, she turned her head and saw Wei Jing's cold gaze. She was so frightened that she almost immediately fell silent. She wanted to slap herself for saying such things. How could everything he said come true?
He was incredibly nervous, fearing that Wei Jing would punish him for it. But after waiting for a long time, Wei Jing only sighed and then walked forward.
Let's go!
"Now that we've found out, we can't give up halfway. Whether that person is our brother or not, we have to find out the truth. If everything my sister-in-law said is true, and we've found out, then we should sincerely apologize to her."
"It's time to put an end to all of this!"
Upon hearing this, Qingfeng's expression suddenly turned serious.
However, when she looked at Wei Jing, there was still a hint of sympathy.
She quickly said something and then followed Wei Jing out of the mansion.
Although Wei Jing found it hard to believe, he still listened to Jiang Mingwei's words and began to investigate the mysterious person and the matter of the tuo luo incense.
Upon further investigation, he discovered that everything Jiang Mingwei had said was true!
The incense is indeed made from the blood of young women.
And now, finally, there is a clue about the man in black.
He was determined to find out the truth...
