Hand Medicine Fragrance

Chapter 48

The person who tied them here sighed softly, "You'll know when we arrive. Next, we have to hurry up. We have wronged the two little masters on the way. Let's eat some dry food and tea first, and make a little cushion. We need to arrive within two days." Songzhou."

After finishing speaking, the man took out three sesame seed pancakes, handed over a water naan, got up and sat outside the carriage.

"Is it really my grandfather's house?" Brother Xuan's eyes were still full of disbelief.

Chai Sujin frowned, "Our family has a single family for five generations, and neither father nor grandfather has any brothers. The only ones who can be called direct relatives are mother's family."

It's no wonder Brother Xuan didn't expect that after Ji's elopement with Chai's father, her natal family severed ties with her.

Whether it was the Chai family's grandfather who fell to his death, or the Ji family who was killed in the street, the Ji family living in Songzhou ignored them and never showed up.

If they suddenly appeared, but they had the audacity to say something about their direct relatives, it was nothing more than a request to them.

"Have the two masters eaten and drank?" a question came from outside the carriage.

Before the two members of the Chai family could reply, the carriage started to move with a sound of "drive--".

Brother Xuan snorted coldly, "The Ji family really isn't very good. You don't even say hello when you invite someone over, and the greeting is just a pretense. Who is sick in his family? Didn't he plan to cure it at all?"

Chai Sujin twitched the corners of her mouth, just heard about the second master?That is her second uncle?
"Sister, it seems that their time in Fangcheng is still too short, and they didn't find out your reputation at all. If you ask you to go for treatment like this, I'm afraid you won't be able to cure the disease, and you will lose your life along with it?" Brother Xuan snorted coldly. .

The carriage trembled violently.

Chai Sujin cleared her throat, "Brother Xuan, don't talk nonsense."

She raised her hand and stuffed a piece of Hubing into his mouth.

Brother Xuan frowned, looking at her puzzled.He lowered his voice and asked: "When my mother was still there, I never saw them treat my mother as a member of the Ji family. I hardly knew that there was such a grandparent's family. Now I am so rude to ask you. What do you care about them?"

Chai Sujin lowered her eyes, "It's not a skill to take advantage of your mouth. Talk less, watch more, and do more."

"Oh," Brother Xuan nodded deeply, and gave her a thumbs up, "It's still my sister who is smart! Go and make their whole family fall ill! Let them know what a mistake it was not to be nice to mother!"

Chai Sujin shook her head and said nothing.

The servants of the Ji family were really on their way. After traveling for hundreds of miles, they finally arrived at Songzhou City the next night.

The city gate was already locked, and they thought they would spend the night outside the city gate, but they didn't expect the person guarding the carriage in front to show the sign, and without saying a word, the city gate opened.

Sitting in the carriage, the Chai siblings were very surprised.

Although I know that my mother's natal family is a rich family with a scholarly family.But never thought that the Ji family has such a status in the huge Songzhou?Reopening the city gate is not something ordinary people can do.

After the carriage entered the Ji family's mansion, he walked on Kuan Kuo Fuzhong Road.

Brother Xuan was almost shocked, "This is Ji's house? Mother's natal house? Such a big house? Such a wide road? You can drive a carriage, sister!"

Brother Xuan didn't recognize it, but Chai Sujin did. This is not an ordinary mansion, but the official residence of the governor of a state.

Isn't the Ji family an ordinary family, but the governor of Songzhou?

This surprised her very much.

The carriage stopped outside the second gate, Ji's family got the letter, and there was already a sedan chair waiting at the second gate.

The Chai siblings got out of the carriage, and before they had time to look around, they were helped into the sedan chair.

The bearer lifted the sedan chair and trotted along, shaking off his sweat while walking even faster.

The Ji family is really very sick?

The sedan chair was parked in a spacious yard.

The sky was too dark at night, and many lanterns were hung under the eaves, but they could not dispel the night.

From a general look at the scenery in the courtyard, it seems very atmospheric.However, it was a little gloomed by the crying sound from the main room.

"Here we come!" The little maid at the door reported to the inside, and at the same time raised the curtain and helped the Chai family sister and brother to enter the door.

Chai Sujin was expressionless, and Brother Xuan was a little nervous.

The room was brightly lit and there were many people sitting there.

But what attracted the most attention was the old lady sitting on the honorable seat.

The old woman was not young, with gray hair, but her face was majestic, with the corners of her eyes and mouth drooping slightly, revealing a shocking force.

"This is the old lady. You siblings have never met before. Call your grandmother!" said a middle-aged woman with a slightly fat body and an anxious face.

Mrs. Ji coughed lightly, "Concubine Chai? Chai Jingxuan? I heard your mother mentioned your names. It is imperative to invite you here."

Chai Sujin looked up at the old lady. Although the old lady was old and had many wrinkles on her face, it was not difficult to see from the facial features that she must have been a beauty when she was young.

Mother Ji is very similar to the old lady.

"Tell the children to step back first, I have something to say to them." The old lady said to the fat woman.

The chubby woman immediately responded and called everyone in the room to leave.There were still tears in the corners of the woman's eyes, and she thought it was she who was crying just now. After everyone was kicked out, she wiped her eyes and stood still in the room.

"You go out too." Mrs. Ji glanced at her.

The woman was taken aback, "Mother..."

Mrs. Ji lowered her eyes and did not speak again.

The woman bit her lower lip unwillingly, but she bowed and walked out of the door without daring to argue.

"Your concubine..." The old lady bit her tongue, as if she wanted to say something intimate, but she couldn't say anything awkwardly to the two complete strangers, so she simply said bluntly: "Your second uncle is sick. I heard that you are famous as a doctor in Fangcheng, so I invite you to treat your uncle."

Brother Xuan wanted to speak, but was pulled by Chai Sujin.

She smiled, "I don't care whether uncle is uncle or not. I haven't seen someone ask for a doctor before. It's like this. This journey is almost exhausting. I'm very tired now, don't talk about seeing a doctor for others." I am afraid that I will fall down at any time."

The journey was indeed tiring, and both she and Brother Xuan also looked tired and blue.But after all, he is a young man, and it is far from enough to fall down.

"I know that you are dissatisfied with the Ji family and hate us for being cruel to your mother, but you may not know it. Your mother is my only daughter, and I love her no less than your mother loves you. She is disobedient and like your father When I eloped, I was annoyed at her and complained about her. It can be seen that she was happy and often wrote letters to care for our two elders. I have already forgiven her," Mrs. Ji sighed, "The year you were born, your second uncle was still alive. I went to visit her, and even hugged you. When I came back, I cried a lot, saying that your mother is pitiful, that you are pitiful, that you have a birthmark on your face, and I don’t know if it will fade away when you grow up.”

Brother Xuan tensed his back.

Chai Sujin kept looking into Mrs. Ji's eyes.

"After having you, your second uncle will send someone to give your mother a gift every year during festivals, for fear that she will be wronged." Mrs. Ji wiped her eyes with a handkerchief, her tone slightly aggravated, "But then When you were young, you may not remember it, but if something happened suddenly to the Chai family seven or eight years ago, maybe the relationship between the two families has become very good now."

Seven or eight years ago?What happened suddenly?
These words caught Chai Sujin's attention, "What's the matter?"

Mrs. Ji shook her head, "To tell you the truth, I didn't know, and your mother didn't go into details. She only wrote one letter, saying that she would cut off ties with us in the future, and would never see us again. At that time, the old man was very angry. Your uncle I even sent someone to ask if she was in any trouble, and her natal family would definitely help her. But who knows, they were sent back without even seeing your mother."

Chai Sujin frowned. Could what happened seven or eight years ago have something to do with his father and grandfather's "accidental fall off a cliff"?Could it be related to that hidden weapon?Could it be related to the secret that grandpa hid in the next "Pharmacopia"?
"Since you don't know, what's the point of saying it now?" Chai Sujin lowered her eyes, suppressing the eager curiosity in her heart, and asked in a cold voice.

"You don't believe me." Mrs. Ji nodded, "There is no evidence for it, and it is reasonable for you not to believe me, but with your mother's handwritten letter as proof, you can always know that I did not lie to you."

Mother's handwritten letter?

Chai Sujin suddenly looked up at Mrs. Ji, what kind of information would the letter reveal?
