"Silly child, get up quickly!" The old lady raised her hand, and Granny Chen stepped forward to help the child up.
Qian Youxue shook her head, knelt down and moved forward to her grandmother's side, affectionately resting her head on her grandmother's lap, and softly called out, "Grandmother!"
"Grandma Chen is no outsider, so please speak your mind." The old lady stroked Qian Youxue's long hair with a kind smile. Poor child, she had suffered so much, and now she had to shoulder that responsibility. How could her small shoulders bear it?
It's so unfair of God. Why didn't He put this heavy responsibility on other children? At least it would have lessened her guilt. Thinking this, her eyes welled up with tears.
Feeling the warmth, Qian Youxue looked up and saw the pain in her grandmother's eyes. She hesitated again, wondering if she could tell her grandmother about the poisoning. But if she did, it would probably put even more burden on her grandmother; if she didn't, she worried that she might not have another chance.
"Child, have you been feeling unwell these past few days?" The old lady became very worried when she saw that Qian Youxue was silent.
"No, no, no! Youxue is fine. This time, Grandmother was seriously injured because of Youxue. Youxue brought some things for you. Although they can't cure the disease, they can at least alleviate the pain." Qian Youxue said, taking out several bottles of pills from her body and explaining the uses of each one.
The old lady was so surprised she couldn't close her mouth. How much silver must have cost for so many pills? The child's monthly allowance was pitifully small; even with the little she gave him, it was far from enough to buy just one pill.
"Young Miss, you haven't been tricked, have you?" Granny Chen was very skeptical about the authenticity of the pill.
Qian Youxue knew they wouldn't believe her, so she casually unscrewed the cap of a bottle, handed it to Granny Chen, and then handed another bottle to her grandmother.
When the first bottle was opened, the fragrance of the elixir filled the entire room, and the old lady and Granny Chen's expressions immediately changed drastically.
So the two opened the remaining porcelain bottles. The fragrance inside each bottle was different, but very strong. Even without looking at the shape of the pills, one could tell that the quality was not bad.
"Child, where did you get so many good things?" The old lady excitedly pulled Qian Youxue up and settled her in a chair.
Under the expectant gazes of two pairs of eyes, Qian Youxue felt like a criminal being interrogated. At that moment, she regretted her impulsive actions.
Seeing that the young lady seemed a little scared, Granny Chen said gently, "Young lady, please tell me what's wrong, so that the old lady won't worry."
reason!
What kind of reasonable reason can you come up with?
If we tell Grandmother at this time that not only is her spiritual root healed, but she can also refine pills and is about to break through to become a low-level alchemist, will all these surprises make her too excited?
Qian Youxue had a headache and was about to speak when she heard the mistress speak.
"Tell your grandmother where you got so much money?" The old lady thought Qian Youxue was frightened, and her tone was much gentler than before.
Qian Youxue suddenly laughed, shook her head and replied, "I'll tell you a secret, but you have to promise me you won't tell anyone, not even your father."
"Alright, alright! I won't tell, I won't tell, quick, quick, tell Grandmother." The old lady was so anxious she could hardly contain herself, and she nodded repeatedly.
"Pinky promise!" Qian Youxue pouted mischievously and wiggled her body.
Granny Chen was amused by the young lady's appearance, and the originally tense atmosphere became lively. The old lady couldn't help but shake her head and obediently started to playfully rub against her beloved granddaughter.
