"Yes, keep Xing'er's medical skills a secret. They are in the dark and we are in the light. It's right for Xing'er not to show herself! She can be the key to our surprise victory!" Grandfather Bi made the final decision.
"Then will Xing'er stay in the capital?"
"If I stay, what about Grandpa?"
"He is safer over there. If we can find the person who poisoned us, maybe we can get him back!"
"Bi Fang, you arrange this matter! Ming Xue, you also prepare two people to go protect your father! Is the Gu family also over there?"
"The Gu family is there, and the Zhao family is also there. Xing'er also asked me to investigate the Zhao family!"
"Why would Xing'er want to investigate the Zhao family?"
"I can't explain it, I just find it very strange!"
"What's strange?"
"Zhao Sheng!"
"Zhao Hongye's youngest son?"
"Yes, also the youngest grandson. Zhao Sheng is incomparable to Gu Jingnian. Zhao Sheng is somewhat like... a spoiled child. His disposition is unstable!"
"And you find that strange?"
"I can't explain it, it's just a hunch!"
"Then let's investigate!"
Ji Xingmi poured some chicken soup from the clay pot into a bowl, then poured it back. She picked up the things and walked downstairs. When no one noticed, she poured all the chicken soup from the clay pot chicken into the garbage disposal in her space. She then put the bones back into the clay pot and returned them to the kitchen.
As soon as she brought the things into the kitchen, Sister Zhang came over. Seeing her dealing with these things, she quickly came to take over. Ji Xingmi didn't refuse, and after taking a kettle, she went upstairs again.
Using the old method, in a deserted corner, she replaced all the water in the kettle with spiritual spring water from her space and brought it into the study.
Seeing that she had nothing else to do, she read a book nearby after pouring water for them, until her adoptive father came to bid her farewell.
She had to stay here for a few days to detoxify Grandfather Bi, and her adoptive father also said he would send her younger brother over to accompany her.
After her adoptive father left, Sister Zhang had already cleaned up her living quarters, and she would be staying in the room next to Grandpa Bi. She informed Grandpa Bi and returned to her room. After locking the door, she entered her space. She prepared the medicinal herbs she needed and was about to start when her door was knocked. Hearing the sound, Ji Xingmi quickly came out of her space to open the door.
"Eldest Uncle? What's wrong?"
"Dinner is ready, come down!"
"Okay!"
Ji Xingmi followed her eldest uncle downstairs for dinner. When she got downstairs, she realized everyone was already there. She quickly went to apologize to Grandpa Bi. Grandpa Bi didn't say anything, just told her to sit down and eat quickly, and said to be more casual in the future, as there weren't so many rules at home. Just as everyone was about to eat, her younger brother arrived.
"Grandpa, I've come to see you!"
"Oh~ Hao Qi is here, are you afraid we'll abduct little Xing'er, so you've come to keep an eye on her?"
"Sister Zhang, add a pair of chopsticks!"
"Yes, madam."
"Hao Qi, sit down!"
"Thank you, Auntie~"
Ji Hao Qi sat down next to his sister. After everyone finished eating, Ji Hao Qi went out to play with his two older cousins. Originally, they wanted to bring their beautiful younger cousin with them, but their grandfather didn't allow it and told them not to disturb their younger cousin.
After Ji Xingmi finished eating, she went upstairs to make medicine. In the evening, when her younger brother came, he brought her some medicinal herbs. It was enough for her to use, so she made all the intended medicines, but did not take them out. She also made some health pills, thinking of using them for Grandfather Bi after the detoxification was complete.
Thinking about her plan, she went to the medicine garden to dig up some more herbs and made a new medicine. She made changes based on the formula for the health pills. It could maintain health, but it would make her appear unwell to outsiders. Western medicine would not be able to detect it easily, but someone with good medical skills would still be able to see it.
However, it should be enough to fool ordinary people. After all, she would look very weak from the outside.
