Chapter 3166: Chapter 3167: Is Six Sick?
"Hmm?"
Ding Rong and Ding Xu looked at him simultaneously.
"Didn’t say anything."
"Just saying, we’ve only been away for a few days, and yet the changes in the house are quite significant." Ding Xu said.
Ding Rong: "..."
You, who’s always in your courtyard... no, in your room with your dicine pots, even left the last ti at night, do you really know what changes there are in the house?
Saying this will only make their father more suspicious, right?
But clearly, Ding Zhuzui didn’t see anything wrong with his son’s words, instead he felt he was quite right.
"After you left, so small things happened at ho, and your grandmother reorganized the household a bit, so the changes are indeed noticeable." Ding Zhuzui agreed.
Ding Rong: "!!!"
This, her father believes that?
No wonder all these years, he could be so easily coaxed by her mother without any doubts.
Indeed, Lin Caisang is right, all n are just big hog hooves, they fail at crucial monts, her father is really... indescribable.
"Dad, let’s hurry, grandmother must be waiting for us in the courtyard." she reminded.
"Right, right, let’s go quickly." Ding Zhuzui responded hastily.
...
In Old Madam Ding’s courtyard.
Before she could wait for her grandchildren, Old Madam Ding received news brought by a steward from a Ding Family branch.
"Six is sick?"
Old Madam Ding’s gaze was solemn as she looked at the nanny beside her.
Of course, the steward from the branch naturally couldn’t see her, so he could only wait outside, letting the nanny beside her convey the words.
"Yes, Old Madam, that’s what the steward from Sixth Old Master’s side said." the old nanny replied.
"Ha."
Old Madam Ding chuckled coldly.
Sixth Ding is well-known for being robust and healthy. At the family gathering earlier this year, she saw him full of vigor, boasting about his martial prowess and how much progress he had made.
It’s not even been that long, and now he’s sick?
Sick to the point of needing dicine from the main family? Must be so kind of terminal illness.
Even as a branch, they have a certain amount of wealth, surely not so poor that they can’t afford an alchemist or buy so rare herbs, right?
If there’s nothing fishy going on here, she wouldn’t believe it, no matter what.
"Did he say what illness and what herbs are needed?" she asked.
"Replying to Old Madam, the old servant asked the steward, and he couldn’t say what illness Sixth Old Master has, but he did clearly state what herbs are needed."
The old nanny replied.
"Sixth Old Master needs a thousand-year Tian Yin Zi, a hundred-year-old Chi Di Shen, and..."
"And what else?"
Before the old nanny could finish, Old Madam Ding interrupted coldly.
"Uh."
The old nanny was choked by her master’s sudden question and dared not speak further.
"He’s got it all figured out!"
Old Madam Ding slamd the small jade ornant she was playing with onto the table.
These herbs are rare treasures, acquired by the Ding Family through great fortune.
After obtaining these herbs, they’ve been secretly stored away, unknown to outsiders.
Yet this Sixth Ding sends a steward to take all these herbs, he surely is bold and daring, really thinking those herbs are as common as cabbages and radishes, easily up for grabs?
