The old lady sat up straight, picked up the porcelain bottle and looked at it again and again. After thinking for a while, she spoke up: "She said that these were all given by the young master. He gave us so much last time, and now he has sent so much again after only a few days. Don't you find it strange?"
"The old lady is right, that's true. No matter how rich the young master is, he couldn't possibly give the young lady so many pills. What do you mean?" Granny Zhang smiled, following the old lady's thoughts.
The old lady was only guessing, but if it were true, it would be a great thing. Having more skills meant having more survival instincts. Even if she married into the royal family, she would have fewer worries.
"Madam, Miss has come to see you." Mei'er's happy voice came from outside the door.
"Quickly, let her in, come in!" The old lady responded happily to Mei'er outside.
Before long, Qian Youxue came in and sat down. Several more bottles of pills were brought out as if they were free. Not only did the old lady get some, but Granny Zhang also benefited.
Now, the old lady's suspicions were almost certain. She exchanged a glance with Granny Zhang and deliberately ordered, "Go and bring the silver notes I prepared to the young lady."
"No, no, Youxue doesn't lack money." Qian Youxue nodded repeatedly. The money Wuxie left her was enough to live on, so why would she need her grandmother's money?
Now, not only was the old lady certain, but even Granny Zhang was convinced of her guess. She went forward to close the door, turned around, and nodded to the old lady.
Sensing the awkward atmosphere, Qian Youxue walked behind her grandmother and began massaging her back: "Grandma, is there something you want to say to Youxue?"
The old lady smiled slyly, grabbed Youxue's hand, and said, "You have something to say to your grandmother, don't you?"
Qian Youxue stopped what she was doing and followed her grandmother's gaze to the pills on the table. She immediately realized that her good intentions had betrayed her.
Who is Grandmother? How could she not suspect the true origin of all these pills when they suddenly appeared?
hehe……
She laughed foolishly, walked around to her grandmother, squatted down, and nestled in her grandmother's arms.
The old lady stroked Youxue's long hair and said with a kind smile, "Silly girl, tell your grandmother, what level of alchemist are you now?"
"Grandmother saw through me again. Youxue is only at the beginner level. These were indeed given by the young valley master. However, Youxue will definitely be able to refine high-level pills for Grandmother in the future." Qian Youxue still refused to tell her grandmother the truth. She didn't want to disappoint her grandmother. It wouldn't be too late to tell her grandmother after she had truly passed the intermediate-level alchemist exam.
"You've given us so many surprises in such a short time, and Grandmother is truly happy." The old lady glanced at Qian Youxue, hesitated for a moment, and still didn't tell Qian Youxue the secret of the Qian family.
Granny Zhang thought the old lady would speak, but seeing that she had swallowed her words again, she naturally didn't say anything more. She went downstairs to prepare some desserts and tea for the young lady, leaving the grandmother and granddaughter some time alone.
After having dinner with the old lady, Qian Youxue returned to her residence. She thought that since Uncle Long had appeared yesterday, Sai Miaoshou probably wouldn't come.
Unexpectedly, not long after the sun set, the master shrewdness reappeared.
This time, Sai Miaoshou was determined to win. He arrived at the Qian family's residence before dark, confirmed that the expert from the War King's Mansion had not appeared, and then appeared in the courtyard after dark.
As soon as the person arrived, Yunhe sensed it. At that time, she was busy in the room organizing the dowry for the young lady's wedding tomorrow. After sensing that something was wrong, she immediately ran out of the room.
