Chapter 48: Chapter 48 Elder Shen, Elder Pei, please stop arguing!

Chapter 48 -48 Elder Shen, Elder Pei, please stop arguing!

Elder Pei was delighted!

The last time he heard Shen Yurou say she saved him, it really troubled him!

He thought maybe his old eyes were failing him, remembering wrong, but he distinctly remembered that the one who saved him was a very beautiful girl, not the ordinary Shen Yurou at all…

When he asked the old man Shen, that crafty old thing feigned ignorance and wouldn’t tell him the truth!

If he hadn’t seen yesterday’s live broadcast on TV, he would’ve remained in the dark about Qingwu being the Shen Family’s daughter and having danced the first dance with his grandson…

That old man, truly cunning!

“Xiao Wu, I didn’t give you a gift for your birthday yesterday, but I’ve got something prepared for you for a long time!”

Elder Pei mysteriously took out a box and handed it to Qingwu.

Elder Shen said in surprise, “Old Pei, isn’t this what you bought when you married your wife? How could you bring out your coffin savings as a gift?”

“Go, go, that’s not right to say, old man. This was agreed upon in our family from the beginning, each granddaughter-in-law gets one! I thought I’d never get the chance to give it away in my lifetime, thankfully, Heaven has been merciful…”

Elder Pei’s eyes were full of affection as his aged hands caressed Qingwu and Pei Jue’s hands, placing them together and giving them a pat.

“Open it and see if you like the gift Grandpa gave you!”

Qingwu met Pei Jue’s equally expectant gaze, and obediently opened the wooden box.

A set of Emperor Level emerald jade appeared, each piece flawless with no defects, worth at least ten small fortunes in Qingwu’s expert opinion, having opened countless stones.

“This is too valuable, I can’t accept it…”

Elder Pei immediately clutched his heart, as if he was on the verge of a heart attack, ready to depart from this world!

“Old Shen… I think I see Cui Hue, the tofu seller from our village…”

Elder Shen joked, “Cui Hue probably doesn’t want to see you at all, she’s busy with her great-grandchildren, while you’re still without hope.”

“My heart hurts… Ah Jue, remember to follow the will I wrote before…”

Qingwu quickly spoke up, “I’ll accept it, but it’s too valuable, I’ll hold onto it for now and return it to Grandpa later.”

Elder Pei was instantly rejuvenated, as if he could climb five floors right on the spot!

“In the future, Grandpa may not be around, so since this has been given to you, it’s yours, there’s no taking it back! If others found out our Pei Family took back a meeting gift to a granddaughter-in-law, I wouldn’t want to face anyone!”

Elder Shen chuckled, “In a few years, you won’t be considered human at all, only a ghost.”

“You just want to anger me to death, hmph! Such an excellent granddaughter will be part of my family in future, a little concession doesn’t matter!”

Qingwu: “…”

The two old men were well-used to bickering, taking verbal jabs like children.

Qingwu looked at the jade in her hand, feeling a bit troubled.

Pei Jue softly said, “If it’s a burden, just hold onto it for now. This set of jade is more traditional because Grandpa always thought I’d marry at forty or fifty, fitting for a daughter-in-law then.”

Qingwu glanced at him, intending to have him take the gift back but unexpectedly lost herself in his smiling eyes, deep with unfathomable emotion!

“You suit the necklace I gave you yesterday more, why didn’t you wear it today?”

“I don’t like wearing accessories.”

She was either out to kill or on dangerous missions, wearing jewelry would only be a hindrance!

“When you’re not on a mission, you should wear it, it suits you well!”

Yesterday, at the birthday banquet, all the jewelry she wore was perfect, adorning her and making her shine as bright as a star!

Qingwu inexplicably glanced at him.

Whether she wore jewelry or not, what did that have to do with him?

“Elder Pei, let me give you a check-up.”

“Yes, yes, alright, you come, you come, girl, I trust your medical skills! Last time Professor Chen visited, he praised my good recovery!”

Elder Shen, seeing how attentive Qingwu was to Elder Pei, sourly commented, “Hmph, granddaughter is still mine, I’m sick too, I want a check-up as well!”

Qingwu: “…”

She grabbed Elder Shen’s wrist in one hand, and Elder Pei’s in the other, checking both their pulses simultaneously!

A gleam of amazement flickered in Pei Jue’s eyes!

Rumor had it that Ghost Doctor Chang Yue could check the pulses of ten people simultaneously, diagnosing their ailments in record time, snatching people from the grip of death!

Her slender, fair fingers rested on the old men’s pulses, her picturesque eyes narrowed, like a masterpiece painting.

“Grandpa, you stayed up late last night, if you do it again, I’m taking away your comic books. Elder Pei, you stayed up late too, and you’ve been quite irritable recently, your liver heat is a bit high.”

Elder Shen immediately covered his comic books hidden under the covers, “No, no, you can’t! Since you bought them for me, there’s no way you’re taking them away!”

“If you’re up past three, don’t even think about touching them.”

Elder Shen was a bit deflated after being scolded by his granddaughter.

“Alright, alright, you’re fiercer than your brothers. Even your second brother didn’t scold me this much during check-ups.”

The thing was, Zhongshuang majored in clinical medicine and didn’t know how to take pulses like Qingwu, let alone precisely calculating his sleep schedule!

Qingwu looked at Elder Pei, “Elder Pei, your body is generally fine, but the previous poisoning did deplete your energy. Also, have you been eating anything you shouldn’t have recently?”

Pei Jue also became nervous, looking at Elder Pei.

“Grandpa, after getting poisoned from wrong medication last time, why are you still eating carelessly?”

Elder Pei was quite aggrieved, “I haven’t eaten anything reckless! I’m just taking my medicine, having my meals, and often playing chess with Old Shen here, occasionally enjoying some afternoon tea from the Shen Family chef… I swear I didn’t eat anything else!”

His medicine and food had been thoroughly checked to prevent any recurrence of the past incident!

Not to mention, the Shen Family’s afternoon tea was truly delicious!

Qingwu looked at Pei Jue and explained, “Grandpa’s afternoon tea is a medicinal diet customized by me, Elder Pei having some is beneficial, no problem at all, but his pulse shows something off, may I see his medicines?”

“Of course, one moment, I’ll get it for you!”

Pei Jue’s long legs took him to the next ward to fetch Elder Pei’s medicine box, handing it to Qingwu.

“What’s this?”

She picked up a few pills from the box, frowning slightly.

Elder Pei was also a bit puzzled.

“Hey, what is this? I don’t even know— let me think… Oh, I remember, Yurou girl brought it by some time ago, said it was good for my health, probably supplements? She mentioned old Shen and Mrs. Shen were taking it, so I accepted.”

The most important thing was, when Elder Pei saw the enormous dress on Shen Yurou, bigger than his sickbed, he couldn’t think straight… Quickly sent her off without checking the items properly.

He had also forgotten about it the past few days, taking them along with his medications as usual.

Pei Jue frowned, very worried, “Xiao Wu, what is this stuff?”

Qingwu spoke calmly, “Black market Divine Medicine, Primordial Energy Pill!”
