The mother and daughter stared strangely at the medicine packet on the table, unsure of what the old lady had given them.“What is this?” the Yao family asked.The old lady stretched out in a yawn and languidly sat on a chair: “Arsenic.”The Yao family choked.Gu Jiao also almost choked. If she remembered correctly, the old lady just casually took it out of her pocket, didn’t she? Do old ladies nowadays carry arsenic around?“Where did you get arsenic from?” Gu Jiao asked the old lady.The old lady seemed a bit flustered under her gaze and cleared her throat: “Just… um… rat poison!”She hastily glossed over her words, but Gu Jiao still understood.Reselling, she said.Some time ago, Gu Jiao found out there were rats in the house, so she made some rat poison using arsenic.The rat poison disappeared, and so did the rats.She thought the rats had eaten all the poison.

Zheng Siye was taken aback by a three-year-old’s audacious backtalk, but still, he’s from the department of inspections and wouldn’t be bested by a child so easily.Angrily, he declared, “Alright, alright, alright. Such disrespect to your elders, it looks like you are in need of punishment! Servant! Bring me the disciplinary ruler!”Upon hearing that Little JingKong was about to be disciplined with the ruler, the young boy revealed a triumphant smile.At that moment, a slender figure walked over.Although he had to walk with a crutch, amidst the wind and snow he seemed as dignified and robust as an evergreen pine tree, radiating an awe-inspiring yet powerful aura.Everyone paused for a second, one, because of his aura, two, because of his appearance.This man looked way too…When Zheng Siye first saw Xiao Liulang, he was utterly stunned as well, but by now, he had become used to it.A face resembling others is no rarity. He had conducted thorough inquiries into eight generations of hi
