On the way, Tu Xuehua talked about her strained relationship with her mother, Sun Biyun.
“My father has always been afraid of my mother. Even when my mother beats or scolds me, he doesn’t dare to stop her.”
"In the entire manor, the only two people who cared about me and whom I trusted wholeheartedly were my younger sister Xuejuan and Granny He. But I never expected..."
At this point, a hint of sadness appeared on Tu Xuehua's face.
Jiang Sishui followed up with her question, "Didn't expect anything?"
Tu Xuehua sighed: "I never expected that Granny He had a grudge against Yanxia Manor and even released poisonous spiders to ruin Xuejuan's appearance."
"Poisonous spider?"
"Yes, that kind of venomous spider is called 'Heartless Mother,' and its venom is extremely potent. After Xuejuan was disfigured, Yanxia Manor searched for famous doctors everywhere, but they were always helpless."
“Poisonous spider…disfigurement…” Jiang Sishui seemed lost in thought.
Then Tu Xuehua said, "Later, I heard a divine monk from India say that the only way to neutralize the 'Heartless Mother's' poison is to fight poison with poison."
"In the Forest of Ten Thousand Poisons, there once lived a jade toad that fed exclusively on spiders. If one could obtain the blood of the jade toad, the Indian monk would be able to concoct the corresponding antidote and restore Xuejuan's appearance."
"But the Ten Thousand Poison Forest is too vast; how easy is it to find even a toad?"
“Even a large-scale mobilization of manpower won’t work, because the Ten Thousand Poison Forest is full of poisonous gas, poisonous barriers and poisonous creatures. Even the flowers, trees and soil are poisonous. Even a Grandmaster wouldn’t last long if he went in.”
Jiang Sishui nodded: "So the spider venom on Miss Xuejuan's body has not yet been cured?"
Tu Xuehua frowned: "Yes. Xuejuan even gave up on herself for a time because of this."
"what about now?"
“Now? She’s at Yanxia Manor right now, and she doesn’t see any outsiders. It took me a lot of effort to calm her down.”
Seeing Tu Xuehua's worried expression, Jiang Sishui smiled and said, "Miss, there's no need to be so anxious. I think I can help your sister get rid of the spider venom and restore her appearance."
Tu Xuehua's eyes lit up, her face full of surprise: "Brother Jiang, is what you say true?"
In his excitement, he even changed how he addressed people.
Jiang Sishui gave her a reassuring look: "Absolutely true."
Tu Xuehua beamed with joy, clapping her hands and laughing, "If that's really the case, Xuejuan will be ecstatic!"
Prior to this, Tu Xuehua was not entirely confident that Jiang Sishui could remove the spider venom from Tu Xuejuan and restore her beauty.
She felt that Jiang Sishui's "purification technique" or Hou Jian's witchcraft should be able to cure it.
But this was just wishful thinking on her part, so Tu Xuehua was never sure.
Now that Jiang Sishui had given her personal assurance, she was finally at ease.
Therefore, the joy and excitement she showed were all from the bottom of her heart, without the slightest falsehood.
Seeing Tu Xuehua's delighted expression, Jiang Sishui couldn't help but marvel at her own luck.
He was originally thinking about how to quickly get closer to Tu Xuehua, but then this happened.
Just when you're feeling sleepy, a pillow appears; even God's favorite son couldn't be treated better than this.
"What's the story with that Granny He? What grudge does she have against Yanxia Manor?"
Although Jiang Sishui had a suspicion in her mind, she still asked to confirm...
Mentioning Grandma He made Tu Xuehua's originally relaxed and cheerful mood drop a bit.
She said slowly, "Grandma He's original name was Liu Piaopiao. It seems she had a grudge against my mother, but it's unclear what that grudge was. Xuejuan was probably just innocently dragged into it."
Liu Piaopiao...
Sure enough it was her.
Jiang Sishui understood everything perfectly.
"Alright, if you can't figure it out, then don't think about it anymore. I'll help your sister restore her appearance first."
"Uh-huh!"
How far is it from here to Yanxia Manor?
"It's not far now, we should arrive around 3 PM today."
……
The two chatted and laughed all the way until they finally arrived at Yanxia Mountain Villa.
Before even entering the house, Tu Xuehua sensed that something was amiss in the atmosphere inside.
It's so stressful and oppressive!
It was as if a dark cloud had descended upon it.
problem occurs!
The thought immediately popped into Tu Xuehua's mind.
She rushed forward and asked the two guards, "What happened? Did something serious happen while I was away?"
The two guards exchanged a glance and said, "Young Miss, it's the mistress of the manor..."
"My mother? What happened to my mother?"
"The mistress of the manor has a health problem; for some reason, she suddenly can't stand up."
Can't stand up?
Tu Xuehua was stunned for a moment, then quickly ran towards the backyard of the villa.
Although Sun Biyun treated her badly, she was still her biological mother. 3.7
Sun Biyun may not be kind, but she cannot be unfilial.
Therefore, when she first heard that Sun Biyun had an accident, her tension and concern were genuine and not at all unfounded.
Jiang Sishui followed closely behind.
The manor guards, seeing that he had come with the young lady, naturally did not stop him.
……
As soon as Tu Xuehua arrived outside the courtyard where Sun Biyun lived, she heard a familiar voice inside—
“The female benefactor is neither sick nor ill, but has been poisoned.”
"This poison is called 'Thousand-Day Laughter'. It originated in India. Those who are poisoned must not get angry, otherwise their whole body will slowly ulcerate and eventually turn into rotting flesh."
"In addition, when this poison takes effect, the poisoned person will become weak and unable to move."
"I am ashamed to say that this poison... is beyond my ability to cure."
297 Sun Biyun, Tu Xuejuan
It was that Indian monk!
Tu Xuehua recognized the voice; in fact, she was very familiar with it.
When Tu Xuejuan's appearance was disfigured, Yanxia Manor searched far and wide for famous doctors. Among those renowned physicians, few could even recognize the poison of "Heartless Mother," let alone remove the poison and cure the disease.
Only this Indian monk came up with a solution.
Although the jade toad is hard to find, it also shows that the doctor's medical skills are superb.
Now, this supposedly miraculous doctor is asserting that he is powerless to help Sun Biyun with her poison...
Thinking of this, Tu Xuehua panicked even more and pushed open the door to enter the room.
"Mom, you..."
There are four people in the room.
A middle-aged man with a kind face but a furrowed brow.
A middle-aged woman with a pale face and panicked eyes.
A slender, veiled girl.
An old monk dressed in exotic customs.
It was Tu Jin, the owner of Yanxia Manor, his wife Sun Biyun, his second daughter Tu Xuejuan, and the Indian monk.
The sound of the door opening attracted the attention of the four people. When they saw that it was Tu Xuehua who entered, Sun Biyun's already irritable mood worsened, and she glared at Tu Xuehua angrily.
It was precisely her cold gaze that made Tu Xuehua's 27 words, which she was concerned about, stop in her throat.
"You finally decided to come back? You've been like this these past few days... ah!"
She had only spoken halfway through her question when Sun Biyun suddenly cried out in pain. Looking at her calf, which was beginning to ooze pus, her expression was filled with terror.
“Amitabha, this is the ‘Thousand-Day Laughter’ flaring up. Female benefactor, you must not get angry.”
The Indian monk quickly offered a reminder.
Should I not get angry?
Sun Biyun immediately realized what was happening, took a deep breath, but couldn't calm herself down.
The excruciating pain in her legs only fueled her anger.
Sun Biyun gritted her teeth and glared at Tu Xuehua: "What are you still standing there for? Do you want me to die sooner?!"
