C1653 The Food Is Ready

On the other side, Mo Nan, who was following a member of the Hong family, walked deeper and deeper into the manor. Along the way, he heard some news from a servant.

The old master of the Hong family had passed away last night.

And he was going to treat him now. Most likely, she was the old master's wife. She had heard that she had passed out due to her sadness last night and had yet to wake up.

Thinking about these things in his mind, Mo Nan felt that something was wrong.

...

After walking for a while, the Hong family led them to a house and stopped. They pointed to the door and said,

"Sir Medicine Master, please."

"This one, please follow me."

After saying that, he respectfully pointed in another direction to Chu Qingming. Clearly, he did not want Chu Qingming to enter the old madam's room as well.

Chu Qingming and Pang Hu looked at Mo Nan at the same time.

After old rascal nodded, the man and the tiger left with ease.

Mo Nan immediately entered the house.

The entire room was filled with the fragrance of medicine. Clearly, many doctors had come before him and treated him, but none of them had any effect.

Looking for the smell of medicine, Mo Nan quickly saw the old madam on the bed. Her brows were tightly furrowed, as if she was still in pain. Indeed, there was no sign of her waking up. From her appearance alone, the old lady was not considered old. Her body was still considered healthy.

There were more question marks in Mo Nan's head.

He did not want to think about it anymore, so he checked the old mistress first.

He reached out and grabbed the old mistress's wrist, closing his eyes to check. Not long after, Mo Nan withdrew his hand.

Sure enough.

He had been suspicious on the way here.

It wasn't that he suspected that the relationship between the two elders wasn't good. It was because the old man had passed away normally and lived to the end of his life. Logically speaking, the old mistress had already predicted this situation and was already mentally prepared for it.

It was certain that she would be sad, but it did not make sense that she was so sad that she fainted...

After checking, Mo Nan found that the madame had been in a coma until now. It was more like she had been poisoned than because she was sad.

He could not tell what kind of poison it was.

"Phew."

old rascal let out a long breath. He wanted to inject some life force into the madame's body to ensure that she could stabilize the condition of her body. He went out.

In the courtyard outside, many people from the Hong family, including Hong Ze and Hong Xiaoling, were already waiting outside. As soon as Mo Nan went out, he bumped into them.

"Master Alchemist, how is my ancestral milk?"

Hong Ze asked with a sincere expression.

Mo Nan hesitated. He looked around. When he looked at Hong Xiaoling, he gave her a look. Then he shook his head and said regretfully, "Master Medicine Master, how is my ancestral milk?

Madam's heart is blocked due to her grief. She is not in a good condition. I can only say that I will do my best."

Upon hearing these words, many people from the Hong family looked gloomy. Most likely, they felt that Medicine Master's words had proved that Madam was hopeless.

First, it was the old tutor, then the old madam. The two of them suddenly let go of their hands and left. What should the Hong family do? What should they do...

Only Hong Ze had not given up hope. He urgently said,

"Master Alchemist, please do your best. I will find whatever kind of spirit medicine you need. After this, if you can wake up the ancestral milk, even if you want me to hand over the entire Hong family's property, I will do it."

In any case, the old mistress was still alive, so those properties could be kept. If the old mistress wasn't here, the property would have been taken away. It's only a matter of time...

Mo Nan's eyes lit up when he heard this. He was extremely excited.

He did not know how many businesses the Hong family had, but he thought that it would not be a problem to feed the two of them and the tiger for hundreds of years.

However, Mo Nan quickly calmed down. Even if Hong Ze really gave him those properties, he wouldn't want them. It was true that old rascal was short of money, but he was just short of money. He still had business to attend to and didn't have time to take care of those properties.

"It's not too late to talk about those things when the old madam wakes up."

Mo Nan shook his head quickly, and then his mood changed. He touched his stomach. He laughed and said,

"By the way, are the dishes ready?"

Hong Ze was stunned. Hong Xiaoling, who was beside him, trembled and held back his laughter.

When Mo Nan glared at him, Hong Ze also sent someone to bring Mo Nan to dinner. He also said that Pang Hu and Chu Qingming had gone ahead of them. old rascal immediately became anxious and left in a hurry, not caring about anything else.

Damn, those two gluttons had already left. If he had gone too late, I'm afraid I can't even take a sip of soup...

Mo Nan immediately left. The moment he left, Hong Xiaoling also said to Hong Ze,

"Family head, I will accompany that alchemist. Do you want to come with me and eat something while you're at it?"

Hong Ze smiled bitterly.

At the moment, he did not have any appetite.

Just as he was about to shake his head, he realized that Hong Xiaoling had winked at him. He thought for a while and nodded. He agreed and turned back to instruct the other clansmen.

"We've been busy all night. Let's go. Madam, if there is any new situation, I will immediately send someone to inform you..."

The head of the family spoke. Hearing this, the Hong family members had no choice but to leave and go back to rest.

"Let's go."

After sending off his family members, Hong Ze raised his chin and said to Hong Xiaoling suspiciously. The two of them then chased after Mo Nan in the direction he had left.

...

In the living room, there was a huge table. When Mo Nan came over, he could not help but let out a sigh of relief.

Pang Hu was still thinking about him, including Chu Qingming. A man and a tiger were still waiting quietly without moving their mouths.

"I've been waiting for a long time."

Mo Nan came to the table and sat down. He rubbed his hands. "Let's eat," he said. The two men and the tiger moved their index fingers and cleaned up everything on the table.

A martial artist's appetite would grow in the future, especially since they had been hungry for an entire day.

As a result, when Hong Ze and Hong Xiaoling came over with the thought of casually padding their stomachs, they discovered that the table was a mess. There was no place for them to use chopsticks at all.

How many days had they been starving?2

Hong Ze's eyelids twitched. The master of the family was still breathing. There was no sign of dislike in his eyes. He sat down on the left and smiled at Mo Nan respectfully.

"Master Alchemist, are you satisfied with the food?"

"Yes."

Mo Nan nodded. He looked at Hong Xiaoling, who was laughing at him. He reached out and rubbed the girl's head with a greasy hand.

"Ya!"

Hong Xiaoling was instantly annoyed. He wanted to wipe his head, but he found it dirty, so he hesitated and couldn't raise his arm.

For some reason, when Hong Ze saw this scene, he was also a little frightened. He looked at Hong Xiaoling and Mo Nan as if he had seen something unbelievable.

Very quickly, he retracted his gaze and turned around.

"Master, the situation of my ancestral milk..."

"Oh, I was just about to talk to you..."

Mo Nan, who was laughing at Hong Xiaoling, immediately turned his attention to Hong Xiaoling when he heard that. He said seriously,

"Your old madam is not too sad, but poisoned."
