The Divine Physician’s Overbearing Wife

Panda Novel

Suyi’s eyes moved slightly as she heaved a sigh of relief.

It turned out that the kids were still safe and sound…

Back then, Suyi left the Mu family without the slightest hesitation. Her strength was not as strong as it was now. It was extremely hard for her to raise Nan Xian. Hence, she was not capable of raising all the kids that she had brought back to the Mu family. Moreover, she did not want the kids to suffer hardship together with her.

As her strength had not been recovering all these years, she could not come back to the Mu family to take the kids away with her. Hence, she had not met the kids for years.

“Old Master, no matter what, these kids are not part of the Mu family. They should not use the Mu family’s resources. We should keep the goodies within the family. If these kids were still in the Mu family, they would use up all the spirit herbs. We would run out of spirit herbs. What about the Mu family’s future?” Mu Ying hesitated for a moment before he continued talking.

“Old Butler.” The old master sneered.

As soon as the old master finished talking, the old butler walked into the clan’s hall with an elder behind him.

Everyone could recognize the elder at a glance. It was Zhang Lao who guarded the spirit herb chamber. Simply no one knew why the old master had summoned Zhang Lao here.

Seeing Zhang Lao, Chen Qingyan’s face turned pale. A resurgence of panic crept into her eyes.

“Zhang Lao, besides my birthday gift, how many spirit herbs do we have left in the Mu family?”

“There are ten pieces of Grade-6 spirit herbs, fifty pieces of Grade-5 spirit herbs, a hundred and ten pieces of Grade-4 spirit herbs, a hundred and eighty pieces of Grade-3 spirit herbs, two hundred and fifty pieces of Grade-2 spirit herbs and lastly, five hundred pieces of Grade-1 spirit herbs.” Zhang Lao cupped his fists respectfully.

Currently, the amount of spirit herbs that the Mu family possessed was considered high in the secular world where spirit herbs were extremely rare as spirit herb mountains were dominated by the reclusive world. Even a piece of Grade-3 spirit herb was priceless.

However, the Mu family was part of the reclusive world. Besides Grade-6 spirit herbs, the amount of the rest of the spirit herbs was even smaller than those that the Tang family owned back then.

Moreover, the Mu family was the leading clan out of the four main forces in Tian Shen Manor.

Hearing Zhang Lao, the entire clan’s hall fell into a dead silence.

Everyone present held their breath and did not say a single word.

Mu Ling’s face took on a ghastly expression. He did go to the spirit herb chamber some time ago to get Zhang Lao to take some spirit herbs for him. However, Mu Ling did not ask Zhang Lao anything about the spirit herb chamber.

It was only dozens of years, but the number of spirit herbs had greatly dropped.

With the amount of spirit herb that the Mu family owned now, it was no match for a small prestigious family in Tian Shen Manor.

“Zhang Lao, tell us the spirit herb we have when Suyi was still in the Mu family.” The old master smirked.

“Alright. before the manor lady left the Mu family, we had ten pieces of Grade-7 spirit herbs, fifty pieces of Grade-6 spirit herbs, five hundred pieces of Grade-5 spirit herbs, one thousand and thirty pieces of Grade-4 spirit herbs, three thousand pieces of Grade-3 spirit herbs, five thousand pieces of Grade-2 spirit herbs and eight thousand pieces of Grade-1 spirit herbs. Each year, the spirit herb mountains contribute two thousand pieces of spirit herbs. After deducting the spirit herb being consumed daily, there would still be two hundred pieces of spirit herbs left. Moreover, whenever the manor lady went out to temper herself, she would collect some spirit herbs and put them into the spirit herb chamber,” Zhang Lao replied.

“Hence, when the manor lady was still in the Mu family, the number of spirit herbs in the spirit herb chamber would increase every year,” Zhang Lao said resolutely, his face was indifferent.

Spirit herbs had always been a clan’s last resort. People of the clan would only consume them during critical times.

Back then, Chen Qingyan had always been taking out the spirit herbs as she wished.

Zhang Lao told Mu Ling before that if Chen Qingyan continued doing this, the Mu family would run out of spirit herbs. However, not only did Mu Ling pay no heed to Zhang Lao’s words, he had allowed Chen Qingyan to take charge of the spirit herb chamber.

“It is true that the old master receives a lot of spirit herbs on his birthday every year, but Aunt Qingyan has taken them away.”
