Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s-Chapter 1727 - 1663 Someone to Confide In

Chiang Xiao had another question. "Are these encompassed within the study of traditional Chinese medicine? If so, your nephew is at the Jiang Family, wouldn’t he notice food-related issues?"

Chen Baoshen shook his head, "Many edible fruits, vegetables, and meats are not included in the study category of traditional Chinese medicine. This practice relies entirely on the individual. Even if one knows, it’s impossible to be thoroughly familiar with every single one. Moreover, Old Master Jiang wouldn’t call a doctor to check every meal."

That’s true.

It’s not like the emperor of ancient times, constantly fearing someone might want to harm him, needing to test for poison during every meal.

Besides, even the concubines of emperors in ancient times might not really test for poison with a silver needle at every meal. It might just be a plot in novels and TV dramas; reality may not require such caution.

Moreover, food incompatibilities are not poison and might not truly be detectable.

So, indeed, there might be demons hiding within the Jiang Family.

This is true; wealth moves hearts. The struggles and filth within The Great Aristocratic Families might be unimaginable to ordinary people. Even in regular families, siblings can become distracted and hurt each other, not to mention great clans.

Speaking of which, take the Chiang Family, Chiang Songtao as the eldest brother, Ho Laidi as the eldest sister-in-law, and those brothers of Chiang Baoguo’s; where is their respect and familial love?

At this moment, Chiang Xiao hesitated greatly, unsure whether or not to save Old Master Jiang.

"Xiao Chiang, how is it, do you have the medicine?" Chen Baoshen asked again.

Chiang Xiao thought for a moment and said, "I have to go take a look, Grandpa Chen. You know I just moved here not long ago, and earlier I went to find my dad, so I haven’t properly organized the things I brought. It’s a bit unclear now. Why don’t you sit for a bit, and I’ll go check."

"Alright, but hurry. After you get the medicine, I still need to rush to D State. Don’t delay for too long."

Chiang Xiao responded and left the living room.

She saw Ah Liu sitting on a small chair by the kitchen door, picking beans, and felt a stir in her heart as she walked over to him.

Ah Liu looked up at her and asked softly, "What’s wrong? Is there something troubling you?"

Chiang Xiao was surprised, "Dad, how did you know I have something troubling me?"

"If it weren’t troubling, you would have already said whether you have the medicine or not directly. Seeing Doctor Chen so anxious, with your character, you would have told him immediately, be it yes or no, without keeping him waiting."

"You know me so well." Chiang Xiao was somewhat taken aback.

She hadn’t expected Ah Liu to have such keen observational skills and to understand her character so quickly.

"Maybe it’s because you’re my good daughter." Ah Liu beckoned to her and said softly, "Come, tell Dad. What’s troubling you?"

Chiang Xiao was very troubled at this moment and didn’t know what to choose. So after thinking it over, she decided to tell Ah Liu.

"Dad, actually, I do have some of the medicine Grandpa Chen wants, but the person he wants to save with it is someone from a family where one member is my enemy..."

Before she could finish her sentence, Ah Liu’s expression had already slightly changed.

Little enemy?

What kind of situation would make someone be seen as an enemy?

Chiang Xiao’s nature is kind and good, so unless the other person really did something particularly excessive to her, she wouldn’t casually see someone as an enemy.

What hurt did she suffer?

But looking at Chiang Xiao, Ah Liu couldn’t bring himself to ask such a question at this moment.
