Knowing that Manager Qi was a workaholic, Su Yingxue didn’t force him.
She returned to the study in the backyard and was troubled by the numerous medical books there. There was still so much she wanted to learn, and leaving them here might attract unwanted attention.
After a brief consideration, she decided to move all the medical books and items in the study into Medicine King Valley. This way, no one could steal them, and only she could access them.
However, this was not a small project. Little Ginseng floated around in her sea of consciousness, not offering a helping hand.
When she complained of fatigue, it even criticized her, “You’re moving so slowly. You’re really useless.”
“You’re so good at making sarcastic remarks. Won’t you come and help?” Su Yingxue rolled her eyes at it.
Little Ginseng pouted proudly. “Have you ever seen a ginseng moving things?”
“You can let me broaden my horizons.”
“I, as a ginseng, don’t have the time for such trivial tasks. Hey, you dropped something. There’s a black box in the corner!”
Little Ginseng reminded her kindly.
Su Yingxue hadn’t noticed yet, but in the corner of the bookshelf, there was a large box, dark and imposing. She tried to open it but found a lock on the box that was completely different from the usual locks they used. It had no keyhole, only a string of symbols she couldn’t understand, and it could be rotated.
She tried to turn the lock, but no matter what she did, she couldn’t unlock it.
Little Ginseng saw that she was sweating profusely and that the box was still intact. It waved its whisker and said, “This thing doesn’t belong here.” “Doesn’t belong here?” Su Yingxue rubbed this special lock and raised her eyebrows.
Little Ginseng’s tone became serious., “1 haven’t seen this thing in thousands of years! It definitely doesn’t belong here… You better keep it.”
Su Yingxue threw the box into the Medicine King Valley. However, since the box couldn’t be opened, she didn’t pay much attention to it.
She didn’t expect that when the box was opened, it would unveil a whole new world in her life.
Su Yingxue rushed back to the Marquis’s Manor after she was done with her work. Su Dingheng brought Su Yurou to the flower hall and waited for her for a long time.
The rare occasion of the three family members sitting together for a meal. As soon as Su Yingxue sat down, Su Dingheng picked up a piece of meat for her. “You’ve worked hard these days. Eat more. It’s not good to lose weight from hunger!”
“Yes, thank you, father!”
Su Yingxue was unusually obedient. She glanced at Su Yurou across from her, and the look in her eyes seemed like she wanted to devour her.
She was such a disappointment!
Su Yurou and her mother’s plan had failed to kill her.
Su Yingxue enjoyed the meal, but Su Yurou wore a stern face. Even Su Dingheng looked displeased as he glanced at her. “Rou’er, your sister’s favorite dishes are with you. Hurry up and serve some to her.”
Su Yurou quickly smiled, “Yes, father. Sister risked her life and made a great contribution. She should eat more.”
Su Yingxue put down her chopsticks and said with a smile, “Thank you. I’m full.”
She got up and said that she wanted to go back to rest. Su Dingheng didn’t stop her.
Su Yingxue pretended to mention it unintentionally. “Father, have you paid attention to the account books of the few shops in your hands recently? Check if the income and money are in order.”
Su Dingheng was stunned. “Why bring this up all of a sudden?”
He trusted Liu Shulan, and he had entrusted her with the account books and money. It had been a long since he last checked.
“This time, my medical center was burned down, and some of the account books were damaged. As 1 went through them, I found several mistakes. I thought of reminding father.” Su Yingxue’s eyes were pure as she left after saying that.
Su Dingheng thought that she was just giving a well-intentioned reminder and planned to check with Liu Shulan later that night..
