90s: You are all reborn, who will spoil you?

Xie Kangyun's eyes looked particularly profound in the dim light. He said slowly, "Yes, we don't have raw Aconitum at home, but someone might want us to have it."

There was a barely perceptible chill in his tone, and he hoped he was right.

All the children of the Xie family will receive education on Chinese herbal medicine knowledge from the elders in the family when they are very young. They will only choose the most talented child among the children of this generation to inherit the family business.

Although Xie Kangyun is the successor of the Kang generation, it does not mean that other people of the Kang generation do not understand the knowledge and pharmacology of Chinese herbal medicine.

Therefore, Xie Kangyun already had a guess in his mind.

Yang Qin was terrified as she listened to this. She didn't understand why someone would be so deliberate in framing them.

Lin Xiaoya stood silently in front of the stove, the medicine pot in her hand bubbling with steam, the fragrance of the medicine filled the air, but it could not hide the worry in her heart.

"Jianhua, please help me check all the herbs in the medicine box and the pharmacy, especially those similar to Aconitum carmichaelii, to see if they have been replaced or mixed with anything." Xie Kangyun's voice was steady and powerful. Although he was seriously injured, his mind was still clear and sharp.

Upon hearing this, Xie Jianhua immediately ran to the corner, picked up the already somewhat worn medicine box, and carefully handed it to his father.

He picked up the herbs one by one, sniffed them carefully, twisted them gently with his fingers, and felt the texture and moisture of the herbs.

His eyes were focused and sharp, as if they could penetrate the surface of the medicinal materials and see directly into their essence.

"Dad, look at this!" Xie Jianhua suddenly shouted. He was holding a piece of black plant rhizome in his hand, but upon closer inspection, he found that there were fine serrated marks on its edge, which is a unique feature of raw Aconitum.

Xie Kangyun took the rhizome, examined it carefully, nodded, and said, "Yes, this is raw aconite. It seems that someone mixed raw aconite with my medicinal herbs without our knowledge."

When Yang Qin heard this, her face turned pale instantly. She couldn't believe that someone would frame them so viciously.

Lin Xiaoya stopped what she was doing, her eyes filled with shock and anger.

"But, Dad, everyone in Xiangjiazhai is from the Xie family. We have been related to the Xiang family for many years and have lived in peace here for decades. How could someone come in and drug us?" Xie Jianhua asked doubtfully.

Xie Kangyun pondered for a moment, then said, "Then there is only one possibility, it was done by someone from the Xie family."

Having said that, his eyes suddenly became sharp.

"Jianhua, go to the village and ask about your cousin Xie Kangyu's recent whereabouts and whether he has been to the medicine garden. Remember, don't alarm anyone." Xie Kangyun instructed Xie Jianhua.

Xie Jianhua nodded and immediately turned and walked out.

Xie Kangyun began to treat his own injuries.

He first used a splint to fix his fractured right hand, and then asked Yang Qin to help him bandage it.

Despite the unbearable pain, his face remained calm and determined.

Lin Xiaoya was silently boiling the medicine on the side, her heart filled with admiration and worry for Xie Kangyun.

At this moment, Xie Kangyun was like a towering mountain in her heart, standing firm no matter how fierce the wind and rain were.

"Yang Qin, go tell Lin Xiaoya why we didn't send her away." Xie Kangyun suddenly said to Yang Qin.

Yang Qin was stunned for a moment, then nodded, walked to Lin Xiaoya, and told her all the concerns of the Xie family.

When Lin Xiaoya heard this, a warm feeling surged in her heart.

She knew that Xie Kangyun's family truly cared about her safety and were willing to help her leave the deep mountains.

"Thank you, Uncle Xie and Aunt Yang." Lin Xiaoya said gratefully.

Xie Kangyun called Lin Xiaoya to his side and sighed: "Xiaoya, my second son met you at the foot of the mountain and saved you. It was originally a good thing."

Lin Xiaoya stood in front of Xie Kangyun's bed, her eyes flashing with a mixture of gratitude and uneasiness.

"Your Aunt Yang just told you that your original buyer is looking for you everywhere. It's not that we don't want to call the police, but the local police won't accept it because you don't have identification. As long as they unite and say you are a mentally ill young wife who ran away, the police will send you back to that den. So, your Aunt Yang and I can only protect you as much as we can."

Xie Kangyun's voice was low and magnetic, and every word seemed to come from the bottom of his heart, with unquestionable sincerity.

"Some time ago, the second brother told me about Xie Kangyu harassing you. I know this cousin of mine well. He's been uneducated and of low character since childhood. This incident might be related to him. Your Aunt Yang and I probably can't protect you. We will arrange to send you out as soon as possible. Please wait patiently. During this time, you must pay attention to your safety, understand?"

As Lin Xiaoya listened to Xie Kangyun's words, the gratitude and uneasiness in her heart became more closely intertwined.

She understood that meeting the Xie family was a rare opportunity given by fate and also a ray of hope for her to escape from that dark world.

"Thank you, Uncle. I... I really don't know what to say. You have done so much for me, but I have no way to repay you." Lin Xiaoya's voice trembled slightly, and tears sparkled in her eyes.

Xie Kangyun gently patted the back of her hand, and the warm and powerful touch seemed to give her infinite strength.

"Xiaoya, don't say that. Our Xie family has been practicing medicine for many years, and saving the dying and healing the wounded is our duty. Since you have come here, it is our destiny, and we will naturally do our best to protect you. Originally, I wanted to teach you some medical skills so that you can protect yourself, but..."

He paused, his tone revealing a hint of helplessness and determination.

"However, the current situation is a bit complicated. The buyer is looking for you everywhere, and Xie Kangyu has coveted you, which makes your situation even more dangerous. We must act quickly and get you out safely."

Lin Xiaoya nodded, tears in her eyes. "Uncle Xie, I will be obedient. I will be careful and not cause any trouble for you."

Xie Kangyun smiled with satisfaction, his eyes gleaming with admiration.

"During this time, you can live here peacefully. We will arrange everything. However, you should also be mentally prepared, as the journey out of here may not be smooth."

Lin Xiaoya took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down. "Uncle Xie, I understand. As long as I can leave here, no matter what difficulties I encounter, I will face them bravely."

At this time, Yang Qin came in with a bowl of boiled medicine. She saw Lin Xiaoya and Xie Kangyun chatting happily, and a relieved smile appeared on her face. "Old Xie, take the medicine. This is what the second brother checked."

Xie Kangyun took the medicine bowl, and a warm current spread from the palm of his hand to his whole body.

He blew gently and drank the medicine in one gulp.

Although the medicine tastes bitter, it is not as complicated and difficult as the current situation.

"Auntie Yang." Lin Xiaoya handed the bowl of medicine to Yang Qin.

Yang Qin took the medicine bowl and looked at Lin Xiaoya lovingly.

"Xiaoya, just stay here peacefully. When the storm has passed, we will find a way to send you away. Here, you are our daughter."
