Chapter 81 The Intertwining of Fates

Upon hearing this, Ji Yun was slightly startled, a complex expression flashing across his eyes, but he quickly regained his composure. He nodded gently and said, "Uncle Zhong, arrange for the Third Young Master to live in the main courtyard of Yixin Garden, Mo Yan and Mo Xian to live in the side courtyard, and Che'er to move back to Yingsong Garden. Dinner will be prepared in the main courtyard of Jingya Garden. Everyone else, go and get busy; we won't need anyone to serve us here." He arranged everything methodically, a hint of anticipation unconsciously appearing on his face. He knew very well that his wife had been waiting for so many years, and this time, he absolutely could not let her son leave her side again. After the servants left, the only sound in the room was the breathing of a few people.

Lu Linger looked around, thinking to herself, this scene felt like a "family revelation." Although she felt a little nervous, she maintained a calm smile, as if she had expected this situation.

"I have a few things I'd like to confirm." Lu Linger decided to get straight to the point. After all, if the atmosphere dragged on any longer, it would only become more awkward. "First, my parents should know that my brother-in-law has been poisoned, right? And it's the same poison my husband was poisoned with before. Yesterday was the fifteenth day of the lunar month, so my brother-in-law didn't come to our wedding banquet because he was poisoned, right?"

Lu Linger's question was thrown lightly, as if discussing daily trivialities, but every word hit the core. She had thought it would cause panic, but Ji Junche only nodded slightly, his face still gentle.

Lu Linger muttered to herself, "Why is everyone in this family so calm? I would have jumped up earlier." She glanced at Gu Yazhu and Ji Yun and saw that their expressions were also calm, so she continued, "Second, did you ask us to come here to ask your husband to confirm that you are indeed his biological parents? Third, you suspect I can cure your husband's poison, so you also want me to help your brother-in-law? Fourth, you want to recognize your relationship, but for some reason, you cannot reveal your identity and your husband's previous identity?"

Lu Linger threw out the questions in one breath, but secretly praised herself in her heart: What a genius! It's like Sherlock Holmes has taken over. This IQ has returned without any warning, it really feels like a time-traveling heroine!

Ji Yun and Gu Yazhu exchanged a glance, seemingly surprised by her directness. Ji Yun sighed softly and whispered, "Ling'er, you're right. We've been hiding a lot from you..."

Lu Linger immediately raised her hand to interrupt him: "Father, stop talking!" She smiled softly, revealing a hint of playfulness. "My daughter-in-law doesn't want to know these big secrets. I'm just an ordinary woman. I just got married and just want to live a good life with my husband. If I know too much, what if I become cannon fodder in the palace struggle? "I don't want to become one of those unlucky cannon fodder villains in the novels of transmigration. Saving my life is the most important thing." These words made the atmosphere in the room a little more relaxed, and even Ji Junche couldn't help but smile.

Seeing the atmosphere lighten up a bit, Lu Linger quickly changed the subject: "Uncle, hold out your hand. I'll take your pulse." She had thought she was here to heal a sick patient, but before she could finish her words, Gu Yichen had already quickly pulled out a handkerchief from his bosom and placed it on Ji Junche's wrist. Ji Junche couldn't help but laugh at his eldest brother's actions. What kind of jealousy was this? Lu Linger secretly rolled her eyes inwardly: This husband is too possessive. He doesn't even let his younger brother go. Tsk tsk, he even has to be on guard against his own brother? I'm really impressed.

Gu Yichen's expression was remarkably serious, completely oblivious to his brother's smile or his wife's humor. His eyes were determined, and his handkerchief pressed firmly against Ji Junche's wrist, as if swearing: No man, not even a brother, would be allowed to touch him. Lu Ling'er chuckled inwardly, too lazy to expose his pettiness, concentrating on feeling Ji Junche's pulse. After all, she didn't want to get involved in this "family war."

Soon, she gently withdrew her hand and nodded: "Uncle has indeed been poisoned by the Night Phantom, but don't worry, I can cure it." She glanced at Ji Junche mysteriously, "But, I can't stay here for a long time recently. If uncle doesn't mind, you can come to our Shen Mansion in the suburbs, and I will treat you there."

"This poison requires acupuncture and medicinal baths every ten days, three times in total." Lu Linger continued, "After the poison is eliminated, you still need to use medicinal food to recuperate for three months. Otherwise..." She looked Ji Junche up and down, a hint of ridicule flashing in her eyes, "With your physique, you will probably need to recuperate for another half a year.

"After hearing this, Gu Yazhu was so excited that tears welled up in her eyes. She tightly grasped Lu Ling'er's hand and said, "Ling'er, you are really the savior of our family! Even Dr. Luo Qi was helpless against this poison. I didn't expect you to have a way!"

Ji Yun also stepped forward and hugged her, comforting her softly: "Don't scare the children."
