Raising My Children With My Personal Spatial Ability Chapter 3063: Thought She Misheard
Previously on Raising My Children With My Personal Spatial Ability...
Drinking medicine is simply drinking medicine, nothing more. Provided that Little Junior Sister of the Bright Moon Sect stays silent during the journey ahead, enduring the daily whiff of medicine won't be unbearable.
"Fine, we'll depart tomorrow morning."
Qian Yizheng gave a nod and motioned for Big Brother Min Yi to take a seat.
"Big Brother Min Yi, does the Min Family have any branches within the Saintess Sect's territory?" he inquired.
Min Yi hesitated briefly, evidently taken aback by Qian Yizheng's question, but he swiftly comprehended—were these young masters scheming against the Saintess Sect?
"The Min Family possesses branches in the Saintess Sect's territory, though none reside in the Main City. That said, my maternal family operates a branch in the Saintess Sect itself, right in the Main City. Should the young masters need to investigate anything, I can head there myself."
Truth be told, those Min Family branches pay him no mind; it's far simpler to summon aid from the Qing Family. Among the Qing Family, he merely needs to speak, and they treat him with utmost reverence.
"Hmm, we'll discuss it once we arrive at the Main City."
Qian Yizheng nodded in approval. Connections there suffice; he doesn't specifically aim to drag Min Yi's maternal family into strife with the Saintess Sect—he simply desires deeper insights into the Saintess Sect.
...
Another night passed.
Little Junior Sister panicked completely as Fifth Senior Brother presented her with a bowl of pitch-black medicinal decoction.
Back in the sect, she always took medicinal pills, and even prior to joining, she'd never swallowed such a liquid medicine—especially one so dark and bitter.
She strongly suspected Fifth Senior Brother had scorched the brew.
Harboring this doubt, the words refused to escape her lips, so she merely shook her head at Fifth Senior Brother to signal her refusal to drink.
"Oh, come on, oh come on."
Fifth Senior Brother gazed at Little Junior Sister, who wouldn't even touch the bowl, nearly erupting in curses.
For crying out loud, if it weren't the first day, he wouldn't have bothered brewing it—he'd have made her handle it alone. How dare she scorn his brewing skills, acting like he was born to serve her?
"Just drink it down. From tomorrow morning onward, you'll brew it yourself."
"What?!"
Little Junior Sister believed she'd misheard.
Fifth Senior Brother was instructing her to brew the medicine personally. With her esteemed background, she'd never performed such a task as decocting medicine!
"Hurry and take it."
Noticing her stunned expression, Fifth Senior Brother thrust the bowl straight into her embrace.
In a panic, Little Junior Sister seized the medicine bowl, terrified it might spill. After all, this was the remedy for her muteness; spilling it would ruin her chance to cure her condition later.
Fifth Senior Brother, seeing her grasp the bowl, spun around and departed.
The decoction was genuinely bitter. Merely preparing it had nearly turned his stomach from the scent.
No telling what the alchemist prescribed, but when he'd shown it to Junior Sister Jun before, she claimed ignorance. Whether genuine or feigned, her lack of understanding suited him perfectly.
Still, he had no intention of brewing anymore.
"Oh, right."
Abruptly recalling something, he pivoted back.
"Little Junior Sister, make sure to rise early tomorrow to prepare both the morning and noon doses. At noon, we must catch up with Min Yi's group, leaving scant time for brewing.
Alternatively, you could prepare the following day's dose the night prior, avoiding a morning rush."
He warned her that decocting medicine demands time, and tardiness would delay everyone—how long were they supposed to wait?
