“Madam, you should sit down first. There’s no need to bother with us. We’re just resting here. We don’t need anything else. Just do things like you usually do.”
Seeing this, Tang Xiaoxiao sat down and smiled. “You’re really polite. It seems that you really treat this place as your home. That’s great. The other two must be very resentful about what happened just now. However, please rest a.s.sured that we will definitely not poison the tea. You can taste it and feel free to voice whatever you are dissatisfied with.”
Seeing this, Yuan Hehe did not say anything else and decided to drink his tea.
However, they heard what Jiang Ming said in his heart.
“Don’t drink it. I don’t know what’s in this tea. Don’t let it harm you. We still have to go out at night.”
These words reminded them to be vigilant, and they quickly nodded in their hearts. “Jiu Zhu, you’re right. We almost made a big mistake.” As they spoke, they raised their cups and pretended to take a sip.
But in fact, they did not drink it at all.
In Tang Xiaoxiao’s eyes, they drank it without thinking, so she could not help but smile.
It seemed that these two people were not on guard. She would make them suffer later on.
At the thought of this, she could not help but straighten her back, and she even looked a head taller.
“Jiu Zhu, what would you like to eat tonight? We have some fruits and vegetables here. My mother grew them herself. They’re delicious.”
“Just make whatever you want. We’re not that particular.”
Jiang Ming pretended to be polite, but he was frustrated.
He did not know how long he would have to wait for dinner to be served. He really did not want to waste time here.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, Tang Xiaoxiao’s expression suddenly changed. It was as if she was possessed. She floated up without touching the ground. Her hands kept grabbing forward, and her eyes were cold.
“What happened? Who’s playing tricks there?” This made Jiang Ming and the old woman panic.
This situation was truly strange.
What was wrong with Tang Xiaoxiao? Why did she suddenly become like this?
Jiang Mings heart tightened. He just stood there and did not move forward.
In his opinion, this old woman was much more anxious than him. He just had to let the old woman go forward later.
Just as he had expected, the old woman was really anxious when she saw Tang Xiaoxiao like this. She quickly spun around her as if she were facing a great enemy. She even went forward to pull her daughter’s arm, but she was pushed away by Tang Xiaoxiao.
“Mother, what are you doing?” Tang Xiaoxiao rolled her eyes. “Aren’t you making my condition worse?”
Seeing that her daughter had finally recovered, the old woman ignored her daughter’s words. She wiped her tears. “You acted like this before. I really want to know what’s wrong with you. Why don’t we find a doctor to take a look? I’ll go and look for him now.”
With that, the old woman ran out of the house in a hurry.
She did not want anything to happen to her daughter now. After all, she was her ticket to riches.
“I’m fine, Mother.” Tang Xiaoxiao quickly pulled the old woman back and shook her head. ‘Don’t worry.”
Then, she looked at Jiang Ming and the other two. “Don’t panic. I don’t have any serious illness. I just study a lot of spells. That’s why I become like this sometimes. I might have scared the three of you just now, but please don’t worry.”
“l wonder if you’re willing to let me take a look?”
Jiang Ming felt that this was not an ordinary change in behavior, so he spoke with a faint smile.
He could check on Tang Xiaoxiao’s condition. Then, he would know her secrets and would be able to take the necessary precautions.
Upon hearing this, Tang Xiaoxiao stepped back with a guarded expression. Her eyes were cold. “I appreciate your kindness. However, I don’t need it anymore. I know my condition. It’s not an illness, but thank you, Jiu Zhu.”
As she spoke, she deliberately bowed, but she could not help but mutter in her heart.
This skinny kid looked like he only knew a few spells. How could he know medicine? She suddenly wondered how skilled he was in medicine.
She had just released a silver needle into him, but if he could remove this needle, then her efforts would be in vain.
As she thought about it, she quickly said, “1 didn’t expect you to know medicine. This is beyond my expectations. You don’t look like someone who studies medicine.’
The old woman chimed in. “You already know medicine at such a young age.
You’ll definitely have a bright future. You’ll be much better than my daughter.
My daughter is just a half-baked doctor. She doesn’t know anything else. However, my daughter is proficient in embroidery, playing the zither, chess, calligraphy, and painting. Young Master, please feel free to quiz her. There’s nothing in the world that she doesn’t know.”
She deliberately covered her face and smiled, as if she was a little embarra.s.sed by her daughter’s talent.
Jiang Ming casually agreed and nodded. “That’s indeed very impressive. Your daughter is quite good.”
Yuan Hehe laughed to himself.
He was proficient in all these fields.
He had once fought for the first place among these women. At that time, he thought that he would take the form of a human woman in the future, so he learned these skills that might be useful.
In the end, although he had become a man, the skills were still useful.
However, at this moment, Jiang Ming suddenly realized that a few porcelain dolls had appeared in front of him.
He took a step forward and sized up the porcelain dolls.
The porcelain dolls’ facial expressions were all lifelike.
Some were angry, some were laughing, and some were confused. However, they all had one thing in common. They all wore bracelets.
However, these bracelets were drawn on, and the colors were different. There were all kinds of colors.
“Are these porcelain dolls yours?” he asked, turning to Tang Xiaoxiao.
He had a hunch that Tang Xiaoxiao was doing this to attract their attention.
These porcelain dolls should have been released by the person in the dark.
As for the person in the dark, it was most likely someone from the Red Organization.
He had thought it through, but he did not show it on his face. He looked at
Tang Xiaoxiao with a scrutinizing gaze.
Tang Xiaoxiao could not help but feel nervous.
Jiang Ming seemed to know everything, but his strength did not seem to be that impressive..
