Chapter 449: A broken heart
The doctor that treated her cleared her and they returned home that morning, Chi Lian did not want to spend a single moment more in the hospital for there was a lot to do. She had successfully pacified Muyang and she planned to go on with her trip after making many promises to take care of herself and video call him every after two hours.
The old madam was unhappy to see them when they returned, she was leaving the house with her husband and breakfast for Chi Lian.
"How can you allow her to come home so soon?" she blamed Muyang.
"The doctor cleared her." he answered.
"Come and help her to the dining table, she has to eat before doing anything else." the old madam told the maids. "It was supposed to be twenty four hour observation in the hospital, those hours have not yet elapsed." she mumbled.
"She looks fine." the old master told his wife.
"Looking fine on the outside is not the same as being fine on the fine on the inside." she retorted.
"But with that special medicine of hers do you really think that she can fall sick and not use it? Look at our condition, we are probably some of the healthiest over seventy people in the empire." The old master spoke wisely. He and his wife had not fallen sick ever since they took that capsule. It was impossible to believe that the owner of the capsule had no means to cure herself.
"You are right." his wife answered. "Now that you are talking about that special medicine I want to ask Chi-Chi to give me some to save for the children. If it can be preserved we can hide it in a bank vault and only tell a few trusted family members. We should prepare for emergencies, what if something happens someday when Chi-Chi is not around?"
