Xiao Qianhan can’t help but laugh, because Qianzi’s way of showing off was particularly funny. She indeed needed Appearance Flourishing Elixir right now to quickly recover her appearance and ruptured tendons. At first, she intended to let the wounds heal by themselves. After she planned and prepared things carefully, she would find a way to buy Appearance Flourishing Elixir and Thousand Strands Elixir to regenerate the veins.
She never expected for Qianzi to appear out of nowhere.
“Is there any Thousand Strands Elixir within these elixirs?” asked Xiao Qianhan.
Qianzi nodded. “There is, there is. There’s one left!”
Xiao Qianhan raised the corner of her mouth slightly as she was in a really good mood. The haziness that Murong Ce, Xiao Yuluo, and her grandpa Xiao Hongyan brought upon her had now dissipated.
“Mistress, aren’t I awesome?” Qianzi looked at Xiao Qianhan with sparkly eyes, waiting to be praised.
Because Xiao Qianhan knew Qianzi’s age, she felt a bit awkward seeing her acting like a spoiled child at this moment. She pursed her lips and nodded reluctantly as she said, “Not bad.”
After that, Xiao Qianhan didn’t hastily take the elixirs. Instead, she tried what Qianzi said before, she entered a state of meditation to feel the Thousands Cauldron Mark. As expected, countless information regarding medicinal books came to her mind.
After half an hour, when she opened her eyes again, all of the information had been received thoroughly. But she didn’t know anything about medicine and has never been in touch with it before. Receiving such a great amount of information regarding medicine and alchemy all of a sudden was quite difficult for her to digest for a moment. It seemed that she needed some time to be able to digest everything properly.
“Qianhan? Are you awake?” Xu Yuman called her softly.
“I’m awake, Mother.” Xiao Qianhan immediately responded. She glanced over Qianzi and the latter immediately went into the Thousands Cauldron Mark.
Xu Yuman promptly pushed the door and went inside. She was holding a warm congee and a herb in her hands. Because she had just come in touch with the medicinal knowledge from the Thousands Cauldron Mark, Xiao Qianhan only needed to ponder for a bit and immediately knew what herb it was.
Heavenly Fungus Herb. It could only be fetched right when the sun rose in the morning. Although it was an ordinary medicinal herb, it was good for the recovery of wounds and veins. There were also some dewdrops on it. They didn’t have gold or treasures in the house, so Xiao Baihao who was still injured must have fetched it himself.
Xiao Qianhan’s throat felt painful, yet her heart felt very warm.
Noticing Xiao Qianhan staring at the herb, Xu Yuman explained softly, “It was your father who retrieved it. You should consume the Heavenly Fungus Herb after eating the congee. He couldn’t buy Appearance Flourishing Elixir for the time being, but taking Heavenly Fungus Herb everyday is good for healing your wounds and severed tendons.”
“Father is still injured. There are a lot of ferocious beasts in the mountain, so don’t let him go there at midnight. Mother, my injury will heal very quickly.”
I shouldn’t tell them about the Thousands Cauldron Mark for now. Before I can ensure the safety for myself and my family, the Thousands Cauldron Mark should be a secret that only I should know. However, I should let them know about Qianzi. If not, she would certainly arouse others’ suspicions when her appearance and veins got recovered without any cause or reason.
Xu Yuman was also very worried, but seeing that Qianhan was still suffering from the pain in her body, she could only keep watch at the door every night to wait for Xiao Baihao to come back safely. It was inevitable that Xiao Qianhan would be worried, thus Xu Yuman nodded in agreement to her words.
Upon seeing this, Xiao Qianhan had guessed Xu Yuman’s thoughts. Apparently, Xiao Qianhan had to take Appearance Flourishing Elixir and Thousand Strands Elixir as soon as possible and quickly earn money to change the temporary predicaments her family was facing.
“Heavenly Fungus Herb? Even if you take it, it won’t be able to completely recover your appearance. If you had known it would come to this and accepted the Appearance Flourishing Elixir from the Seventh Prince, you wouldn’t have looked like a ghost now!” The arrogant and mocking words of a woman could be heard from the front of the door.
