As the silver needle was pulled out, Shen Yaowen slowly woke up as expected.

He opened his eyes and saw the two siblings standing by the bed with worried faces. He said softly, "I'm fine. You don't have to worry."

The court doctor came forward, carefully felt his pulse again, and then warned him in a serious tone: "Although you have woken up now,

But I am old now, so I must avoid such emotional excitement in the future."

Then he took out a pen and paper, wrote down a prescription, and handed it to Shen Chenxi.

“Boil three bowls of water into one bowl, take it once in the morning and once in the evening, for three consecutive days.”

Shen Chenxi took the prescription, quickly glanced through it, and then handed it to Zhu Mo, Shen Yaowen's personal servant.

"Did you hear that?"

"Yes, young master, boil three bowls of water into one bowl and take it once in the morning and once in the evening." Zhu Mo answered respectfully.

"Go ahead, boil the medicine."

"Yes," Zhu Mo bowed and quickly left the room.

"Master, I will go back first. If you need anything, send someone to call me."

The court doctor bowed to Shen Chenxi and prepared to leave.

Shen Chenxi nodded.

After the court doctor left, Shen Yaowen asked, "Xi'er, how are the arrangements for Xianxian's funeral?"

"Please rest assured, father. I have already asked the housekeeper to take care of it. They will be buried together." Shen Chenxi comforted.

After hearing this, Shen Yaowen finally felt relieved.

He nodded slightly, a hint of relief flashing in his eyes.

Then, he looked at Shen Jingyi and said softly, "Yier, go back! Don't worry about me."

Shen Jingyi glanced at the sky outside. The sun was already setting, and it was indeed getting late.

So, nodded.

"Then I will go back first, father. I will come back to see you in two days."

Before leaving, she bit her lip, with a barely perceptible struggle in her eyes, and finally she spoke out to comfort him, "Let the past be the past!

What’s important is that you will have many children in the future, so you have to cheer up for them.”

Shen Yaowen looked at his daughter with complicated eyes, and a feeling of being touched and relieved surged in his heart. He didn't expect her to say such words.

He was silent for a moment, his lips trembling a few times, and then he stammered, "You... don't hate me? Your mother's death..."

His voice was low and hoarse, with a hint of guilt that he couldn't hide.

"I hate it, right? After all, it was your mother who killed my mother! I don't know what the old lady's heart is made of, to be so cruel."

Shen Jingyi's voice was calm, but it revealed hatred for the old lady.

When Shen Yaowen heard this, his eyes widened, his lips moved a few times and then closed again. It would be inappropriate for him to say anything now, so it would be better to remain silent.

Shen Jingyi didn’t seem to notice the change in his expression, and continued, “My mother once told me that people can’t always live in the past;

We must learn to look forward, so that the world will be broader.

I think what she said makes sense, and now that I have found the real murderer and avenged her, I have let it go."

After hearing this, Shen Chenxi gently patted Shen Jingyi's shoulder to express his comfort and support.

"Come on, I'll take you out of the house." He said gently, his eyes full of concern.

"it is good."

Shen Jingyi looked at Shen Yaowen again, "Father, I'll go back first. Remember to take your medicine on time."

"Got it." Shen Yaowen responded tiredly and waved his hand to signal her to leave.

The two walked side by side in silence all the way.

When he reached the gate of the mansion, Shen Chenxi stopped, turned around, and stared at Shen Jingyi with deep eyes.

"Were you serious about what you just said to your father?"

Shen Jingyi raised her eyebrows and replied indifferently: "Half of it is true, and half of it is just to comfort him;

I’m afraid he’ll be upset and that will cause more trouble.”

Shen Chenxi chuckled, "Haha~ I knew it..."

Shen Jingyi looked at her brother's smiling face and was not angry. She just said with a serious face: "Brother, I'm telling you, you can't burn paper for that old lady during festivals in the future. Do you hear me?"

"Hahaha......."

Shen Chenxi couldn't help laughing out loud when she heard her sister's request.

Shen Jingyi is a man of integrity, why is she smiling?

She herself came from the modern era, so she still believed in ghosts and gods.

"Don't laugh, be serious, I'm talking about business!" Shen Jingyi said to Shen Chenxi seriously.

Seeing that Shen Jingyi was really angry, Shen Chenxi quickly restrained her smile and said seriously, "Okay, I understand. I won't burn paper for her anymore."

When Shen Jingyi heard the answer she wanted, a satisfied smile appeared on her face, and she said, "That's about right. Okay, I'll go back first. Remember to send someone to notify me if anything happens."

Shen Chenxi nodded and agreed: "Don't worry, I will.

Go back quickly. It is not convenient for your family to keep you for dinner today. If you don’t go back, it will be past dinner time.”

He knew very well that his sister cared about him and was worried about the family.

"Then I'm leaving!" Shen Jingyi waved her hand, turned around, and got on the carriage with the help of Xia Zhu.
