Chapter 41: Confession

Chongjia is made of medicinal materials, passed down from generation to generation, and the secret recipe is a well-deserved heirloom of Chongjia.

My mom also said that when the time is right, she will pass on the secret recipe to me, but she never told me about the secret recipe of the heavy family.

My mother was also confused: "Snake King, are you mistaken?" Cheats are generally used for cultivation, right? Don't say it's me, even Huanhuan's grandfather and grandfather have never cultivated, where do you come from? โ€

My mother's expression didn't look like she was lying, so I asked, "Mo Jiuqi, are you mistaken?" โ€

"Maybe." Mo Jiuqi didn't ask, "Let's eat." โ€

ยท

After breakfast, Mo Jiuqi asked someone to send us back.

The driver was a middle-aged man, very strong, with calluses on his hands, and he should be a practitioner.

When we came out of the courtyard, it seemed to be foggy and misty, and we couldn't tell the geographical location of this place.

By the time the scenery outside the car window gradually cleared up, it was already on the outskirts of the city.

My mom kept holding my hand tightly and she was nervous.

Going home means being free from all protection and facing the unknown that is about to happen, and we have no ability to protect ourselves.

The car drove into the ancient town and stopped in front of my house, without saying a word during the whole process.

I helped my mom out of the car, watched the car leave, and finally disappeared into the alley, so I took the key to open the door.

I didn't come back for many days, and there was a layer of dust in the house, so I immediately started cleaning, and my mother stood at the door of the store, seeing that I was busy, and she was a little stunned.

After a while, she stepped forward, took my hand and said seriously: "Huanhuan, you believe Mom, I really don't know what secrets our family has." โ€

"I believe it." I said in a relaxed tone, "Mom, grandpa was in a hurry at the beginning, and there were many things that he didn't have time to explain, and besides, Mo Jiuqi may just be deliberately tempting, you don't have to take his words to heart." โ€

My mother shook her head: "No, since he asked, it means that the Chongjia family at least really had such a secret book before, but in which generation it was lost, or your grandfather thought that thing was too troublesome, and it wasn't necessarily if he didn't tell me." โ€

"I'm afraid, I'm afraid, the cheats are still there, but they were hidden by your grandfather in Dushui Village."

Only then did I understand my mother's worries, Mo Jiuqi knew the existence of the cheats, so Liu Xizhen must also know.

Liu Xizhen is the protector of my family, and he may be more familiar with my family than me and my mother, if the cheats are hidden in Dushui Village, there is a great chance of falling into the hands of Liu Xizhen.

I held my mother's hand and comforted: "Mom, to tell you from the heart, you and I are as weak as ants in front of them, we can't fight, then calm down, let him come, and all the truth will eventually surface." โ€

"You, you just have a big heart." My mom reached out and tapped my eyebrows and snorted.

Then he sighed: "If your grandmother hadn't left back then, maybe the Chongjia family wouldn't have come to this point, Huanhuan, my mother still hopes that you can go to Miaojiang and take a look." โ€

I nodded and said, "Yes, I will definitely go." โ€

My mom patted my hands and went to check on the snake wine.

The door of the store has to be opened, and the days have to go on, and one day when my mother and I are here, the heavy family medicine and wine will not be broken.

ยท

School will start in two days, and I was supposed to intern at the first hospital in the city during the summer vacation, one is to accumulate experience, and the other is also for my graduation thesis.

Who would have thought that so many things would happen before the internship was completed.

I called the department and made an appointment to get the internship materials early the next morning, and by the way, I went back to my room to pack up my belongings.

I was packing up when my mom knocked on the door and came in, holding an antique red sandalwood box in her hand.

I know that box, it's my mother's baby, my family's valuables are locked inside, and my mother won't let me touch it since I was a child.

She sat down at the table, beckoned me over, and opened the box.

The box is not big, it is divided into two layers when opened, the upper layer is placed an account book, some gold and silver jewelry, passbooks, real estate certificates, etc., and the lower layer is a thick notebook, made of kraft paper, a few keys, and a palm-sized red sandalwood box.

My mother pushed the box in front of me and said, "Huanhuan, this is all our belongings, originally I thought you were still young, and I will keep it for you for a few more years, but now, I think I should be more relieved to put it with you." โ€

I chuckled in my heart, and my nose was inexplicably sour: "Mom, what are you talking about, I'm about to start school, who has time to help you keep these, you take them back." โ€

"Take it." My mother insisted, "These were originally meant to be left to you, and this account book contains the contact information of the medicine farmers I have cooperated with all year round, the IOUs for medicine and liquor on credit, etc., and the password of the passbook is your birthday." โ€

"This notebook is handed down by the ancestors, and all the secret recipes of the heavy family medicine and wine are in it, your mother is really a little stupid, there are many fonts in it that I don't recognize, and there are not many secret recipes that can be used."

My mother smiled self-deprecatingly, picked up the keys again, and explained them one by one: "This is the key to our medicine and wine warehouse, this is the key to the box containing precious medicinal materials, this ......"

After explaining this, she took out the small red sandalwood box, put it in my hand, and said, "This thing is also handed down from my ancestors, but no one has been able to open it yet, and I don't know what is inside." โ€

The little box was so integrated that I didn't see any gaps, let alone find the lock or something, like a lump.

But since it was handed down from the ancestors, there must be some hidden mechanism, and ordinary people can't open it.

"Black Snake...... "My mother hesitated for a moment and said, "I think he's very good to you, and you have the truth of husband and wife, if he can protect you, you ...... Don't disobey him for the time being, it's best to ask him to help you cultivate and learn some skills for self-preservation, which is the most important thing. โ€

That afternoon, my mother took my hand and babbled about this and that, and the more I talked about it, the more uneasy I became, she was like ...... It's like you're explaining what's going on.

But after that, she went to sort out the online orders during this period of time as usual, looking for an errand boy to deliver them from afar, and she delivered them to her own door as usual, which looked quite normal.

I went to the hospital early the next morning, went straight to the head of the department, and asked him to help me get the internship materials.

Originally, my internship materials were all on Miao Yi's side, but now his life and death are uncertain, and he has already taken a long leave from the hospital, so he can't help me.

Unexpectedly, I explained my intention, but the director of the department said: "Coincidentally, Dr. Miao came to work today, and the materials are all there, you can go to him......"
