"Your Majesty?"
Shen Cha frowned, stood up and walked over to look at the fire in the charcoal basin. He felt that it was about to go out, so he let it light up again. Then he opened the window behind him a little wider and looked at the yard outside, which was guarded by shadows. Yan Yanshen, gently raised the corners of his lips.
"Yes, my mother." Ning Cheng nodded, "My mother knows this. She told me that I must hide it from my sister and not tell her the truth."
"Is this related to your sister?"
"I hate Boss Luan because he broke the rules he set himself. My sister just said that he doesn't allow people in the Ning family to touch Wangyou San, otherwise they will be kicked out of the house, but he Isn’t it ridiculous that I sent Wangyou Powder to my mother?”
"But why?"
"The reason is just to use my mother to test his new medicine."
"New medicine?" Shen Cha came back and looked at Shen Haolin, then at Ning Cheng, "Didn't your mother pass away because of Wangyousan?"
"Wangyousan is just a general term. There are many different types, and the effects are also different." Ning Cheng sighed and said, "My mother was depressed because of the death of her father and brother, and because of what happened to her sister, she He was incompetent and resented himself. Gradually, he became taciturn. Slowly, he started to get sick. When it got serious, he was too sick to get out of bed." He looked at Shen Cha, then looked at Looking at Shen Haolin, he sighed again, "Later, I don't know who got the news to Boss Luan. Through the clan leader and elders, he apparently sent medicine to my mother, saying it was good for her illness. , in fact, this medicine is not a good thing, it is a new kind of Wangyou powder they have made. When I first took it, I didn’t feel like I was intoxicated. It can indeed cure the disease and make people change from weak and weak to... You have to be energetic and strong, but if you take it for a long time, you will still have a deep dependence. If you don't take it for a day, you will feel like your whole body is being eaten by small bugs from the inside out, and you will become deformed. People are not human, ghosts are not ghosts, all their ugliness is revealed, and they have completely lost their dignity as a human being. However, there is one thing. The most original Wangyousan will make people who take it become thin and haggard, but this new variety It’s different, it doesn’t cause any physical changes at all, so we were completely unprepared and didn’t think that my mother had used Wangyousan.”
"That is to say, your father has been taking Wangyousan for a long time, and you don't even know about it, right?"
"Yes!" Ning Cheng looked at Shen Cha, nodded slightly, and said, "The original Wangyou Powder, if you take it, will emit a sweet and greasy smell, which is not good. It's okay, but it's very special anyway, and people react immediately. But my mother's improved Wangyousan is different. It tastes like a normal medicine. What does the decoction taste like? It just tasted like that, so we all thought that what my mother took was medicine, and no one doubted it at all."
"Then, who realized that your mother actually took Wangyousan?"
"It's my mother!" Ning Cheng looked in the direction of the door, smiled, and said, "My mother, you have also seen it. She is well-informed. What she has seen, heard, and eaten, I, My sister and my mother together were not as rich as her. After we left the Ning family, we moved into my mother's private residence in Chaozhou. On the first night, she came up to me and asked me if I knew my mother was there. Taking Wangyou Powder. I was quite stubborn at the time and told my mother that it was absolutely impossible. What my mother hated the most in her life was Wangyou Powder. How could she possibly take it?" He smiled bitterly as he spoke, "As a result, my mother Slap me hard in the face with the truth."
"Did she take you to ask your father-in-law? Your mother-in-law doesn't know if the medicine is medicine, right?"
"Maybe I know, maybe I don't know, we haven't asked about this." Ning Cheng shook his head gently, "My mother took me to a place, which is the house of her good friend. Her good friend's nephew was Wangyousan. He was trapped, and finally he only had one breath left, just in time for me to go over and see him for the first and last time, and this nephew’s Wangyousan was very similar to my mother’s medicine.”
"I'm afraid it's not highly similar, but exactly the same, right?" Shen Haolin exposed his self-deception, "Do you know what your mother did after taking Wangyousan?"
"Forced drug withdrawal has failed several times." Ning Cheng shook his head helplessly, "But this thing must not be used anymore. No matter how hard my mother tried, I never gave it to her, even if my sister said I was unfilial. She quarreled with me several times, but I didn’t agree. But I didn’t tell her the truth. I only said that I asked a doctor to refill the medicine, which would be more effective. Fortunately, my mother’s help, otherwise, this lie would really be far from true. However, the doctor's medicine was indeed very effective. My mother's restless mood was quickly calmed down, and she did not break out for three or four months in a row. But after three or four months, her whole state became worse. It’s becoming more real.”
"Trenching towards reality means..." Shen Cha sighed, "The effect brought by Wangyou Powder is no longer there, so it is what it should be. Not only does the pain not lessen, but it actually seems to be more serious, right?"
"Yes!" Ning Cheng nodded, "However, after three or four months of subtle influence, my sister accepted my mother's dejection. She also knew that there might be something wrong with the previous medicine, but she didn't ask any more questions. I accepted it so calmly. My mother left one night in the fifth month after she stopped taking the medicine. When she left, she held my and my sister’s hands and told us to live well and not to cause trouble. , just live your life well.".
"So, your mother knows that there is something wrong with her medicine." Shen Cha sighed and poured a cup of tea for Ning Cheng, "It seems that half of your family has been ruined by Wangyousan and Boss Luan. "It's natural for you to hate him." She thought for a while, "The enemy is not far away, do you really not want to take revenge?"
"I don't want to disobey my mother and my mother, and I don't want to make them sad. Besides, if I kill him, my mother won't be able to survive, and my hands will be stained with blood in vain. There is no need at all. Besides, his The crimes are already too numerous to describe, so let’s leave them to the Duke and the General for trial!”
"It was handed over to the Bactrian Law for judgment."
"You're right!" Ning Cheng nodded, took a sip of tea, and suddenly patted his forehead, "Hey, I forgot something. I was thinking about telling you about medicine just now!"
"say what?"
"Just now when my sister was telling the story about the cooperation between Boss Luan and the Ning family, I suddenly thought of what the businessmen from the Western Regions told me."
"say what?"
"They said that when Boss Luan was in Ubi City, strange things happened every once in a while." Ning Cheng looked at the two people in front of him, "There will always be a child lost."
