Seeing that Old Madam Xue was still worried, Xue Qi said, “Grandma, it’s better for to be stung than for Huan Er. After all, I’m a man.

“If Huan Er’s face got hurt, wouldn’t it be a pity?

“That makes sense,” she said.

Old Madam Xue, who was worried at first, laughed when she heard this, making everyone laugh.

Xue Zhi, who was standing nearby, told Jiang Peihuan, “Huan Er, Ah Qi told that you guys have found a special root that might cure Grandma.

“Yes.”

When Xue Zhi said this, Jiang Peihuan answered softly. But looking at everyone, she said, “Before we cure her, we need to do one thing.

“We need to find out why she got poisoned. If we don’t, she could get poisoned again even after we cure her.”

“How do we find them?”

As soon as Jiang Peihuan finished speaking, Xue Qi asked.

Jiang Peihuan didn’t look at the young n from Xue’s family but at Nanny Yun Gui. Yun Gui said to her, “Young Little Miss, tell what you need.”

“Nanny Yun Gui, you know my grandmother the best, especially what she eats.

From now on, Ye Xiao and I will check everything she uses every day.”

“I understand, Young Little Miss. 1 will arrange it.”

Nanny Yun Gui bowed to Old Madam Xue and left. Soon, she ca back with Jiang Peihuan and they went into Old Madam Xue’s room.

The Xue brothers followed them even though they didn’t have the knowledge for dicine.

Jiang Peihuan didn’t stop them because she was busy checking the items.

She thought the poison ca from sothing Old Madam Xue used every day because the poison from rosemary needs ti to work.

But she didn’t find anything after checking everything.

She looked at Ye Xiao, who shook her head when she saw Jiang Peihuan’s questioning look.

Seeing this, Jiang Peihuan frowned.

Suddenly, Jiang Peihuan’s gaze fell on Old Madam Xue’s bed.

When she moved closer, Nanny Yun Gui quickly followed her.

At first, Jiang Peihuan thought she slled sothing wrong when she stand in the middle of the room. But as she got closer to the bed, the sll got stronger.

In her previous life, when Jiang Peihuan was studying dicine, she had specially trained her sense of sll to prevent Xiao Junhao from being poisoned. As long as there was a strange sll, she would be able to sll it.

“Ye Xiao, co and sll this.”

Ye Xiao ca over when she heard Jiang Peihuan. After slling the air, she said, “It seems like it’s coming from Old Madam Xue’s pillow.”

“Yes, I sll it too.”

“Old Madam, I’m sorry.”

Ye Xiao bowed to Old Madam Xue and reached out to take the pillow from the bed.

Nanny Yun Gui, was surprised by this. She looked at Old Madam Xue and saw her face turn pale right away.

She stepped forward to support the old madam, Nanny Yun Gui looked at Jiang Peihuan and said,” Young Little Miss, isn’t this pillow filled with dicinal herbs that help with sleep?”

Hearing Nanny Yun Gui’s words, Jiang Peihuan replied softly,” Yes, indeed it is filled with dicinal herbs that help with sleep, but other than dicinal herbs, there is also rosemary. Its scent is hidden because there are so many different herbs.”

“Nanny Yun Gui, where did this pillow co from?”

“Huan Er.”

As Jiang Peihuan was about to ask Nanny Yun Gui, she heard Old Madam Xue’s voice and turned to look at her.

Seeing that the old madam had reached out her hand to her, Jiang Peihuan quickly went forward to hold her hand.

Old Madam Xue held her hand tightly. After a mont of silence, she said in a low voice,” Let’s end this matter here.”

Hearing this, Jiang Peihuan was surprised. Just as she was about to speak, Xue Qi angrily said, “Grandma, this person clearly wants to harm you. How can we let him off so easily? I…”

“I said that this matter ends here. Can’t you hear ?”

“Or are you saying you don’t listen to anymore?”

Before Xue Qi could finish, Old Madam Xue cut him off. Xue Qi wanted to say more, but Jiang Peihuan quickly said, “Cousin Qi, Grandma’s health is most important now. Let’s talk about this later when Grandma is better.”

Hearing this, Xue Qi, although confused, said nothing more.

“Enough, I’m tired. Huan Er, stay with . Everyone else, leave.”

As soon as Grandma Xue spoke, everyone else left, leaving only her and Jiang Peihuan in the room.

Even Nanny Yun Gui left.

Jiang Peihuan helped the old madam to sit down and poured her a cup of tea.

After handing the teacup in her hand to the old madam, Jiang Peihuan said softly,” Grandma, I specially asked Nanny Yun Gui to put so wild ginseng in here. Please drink so.”

Hearing Jiang Peihuan’s words, the old madam reached out and took the teacup.

After taking two sips, the old madam put down the teacup in her hand.

Looking at Jiang Peihuan, who was sitting beside her, she said softly,” I thought you would ask about this pillow.”

“Grandma, if you don’t want to talk about it, it ans that this matter involves quite a few people, and it must be soone close to you. Therefore, if you don’t want to talk about it, 1 won’t ask.”

“Huan Er, you’re young, but very wise.”

Hearing Old Madam Xue’s words, Jiang Peihuan just smiled and didn’t say anything.

She was wise because she had lived twice.

“The pillow was brought by your second aunt.”

“Second Aunt?”

Old Madam Xue said softly after a mont of silence, and Jiang Peihuan was shocked to hear this. If the pillow was from Wang Fengyi, Jiang Peihuan might believe it. But if it was Xu Yunniang who poisoned Old Madam Xue, Jiang Peihuan wouldn’t believe it at all.

Now, Jian Peihuan finally understood why the old madam was unwilling to pursue this matter.

After so thought, Jiang Peihuan looked directly at Old Madam Xue and said,” Grandma, although 1 haven’t had much contact with my second aunt, from what I can tell, she is a kind-hearted person and would never do such harm.”

“I trust your second aunt’s character, but I’m afraid she’s been used by others.”

Hearing this, Jiang Peihuan didn’t know what to say.

In such a large mansion, every household has secrets.

Jiang Peihuan thought this matter was over, but there was more to co.

“Didn’t you find the antidote? Why do you look sad?”

After leaving Old Madam Xue’s courtyard, Jiang Peihuan went to the bamboo garden..
