Chapter 956: Nine hundred fifty-one, Chinese medicine became a beverage

After all, if there weren’t for the old patriarch, he might indeed find it hard to leave gracefully right now.

At this moment, the old patriarch looked eagerly at Gu Zhen, who was holding a bundle of traditional medicine in his arms.

This bundle of medicine seemed to be his antidote; when he saw it,

he was immediately unable to take his eyes off, while he also tried hard to breathe in.

It was as if he wanted his sense of smell to touch the scent of these herbs.

Gu Zhen also subtly observed this scene and felt incredibly puzzled.

He did not understand why the old patriarch was so interested in this traditional medicine, notoriously known for its bitter taste.

He could not comprehend whether the old patriarch genuinely felt nothing at all?

In the present situation, to still be willing to consider taking the medicine seemed beyond comprehension.

Although Gu Zhen did not understand internally, he did not express any of his opinions at this time.

Because he was well aware that he had no right to make any comments right now.

So all he could do was wait quietly until the old patriarch had finished drinking it.

He believed the old patriarch would definitely change afterward.

The people around them also noticed in an instant.

The old patriarch wondered why he was favoring Gu Zhen.

If it had been the old patriarch from the past, he might have said that Gu Zhen was very unruly.

But today’s old patriarch seemed to have completely transformed into a different person.

Although everyone did not understand, they could only remain silent,

while their gazes shifted towards the eldest son of the old patriarch.

It was as if they were waiting for him to continue.

However, at this time, the eldest son also dared not say anything further.

Because in the household, it had always been the old patriarch who had the final say; he dared not dispute anything the old patriarch said.

He even dared not rebel.

Even though the old patriarch was gravely ill by now,

and soon to die, all of the family properties would surely be his to inherit.

Yet, even under such circumstances, he still wouldn’t show the slightest sign of disobedience,

much like a full-time nanny for the old patriarch.

The people around were worriedly watching the old patriarch because they saw him directly picking up the bowl at that time.

The gesture was as if he were about to have a meal, which looked incredibly adept.

Moreover, they watched as the old patriarch,

took out all the traditional medicine that Gu Zhen had prepared for him.

Each became visibly shocked in expression,

as they couldn’t understand why the old patriarch insisted on consuming these medicines,

which to their eyes, sealed in jars, was hardly different from poison.

But in the eyes of the old patriarch, these things seemed to have become a routine.

This made them feel extremely puzzled.

The old patriarch sat there, imposing without anger; they didn’t dare to ask, only able to continue observing the eldest son.

At this moment, the eldest son also said nothing, rather looking at the old patriarch with a very neutral expression.

Gu Zhen couldn’t detect a trace of kinship in the gaze of this man.

As if for him, whether the old patriarch lived or died was not significant.

Even when the old patriarch was drinking the traditional medicine, he showed no concern.

After all, he was of no significance or stature; regardless of the old man’s status or identity,

regardless of who he was, if something was taken, he was sure to repay it.

So there was no blushing at all, and at this time,

that man also started talking as soon as he opened his mouth.

"Old man, are you all right?"

At that moment, he walked over and asked the elderly man curiously.

It was as if he was very concerned about the elderly man’s health.

After hearing this, the elderly man completely ignored the question he had just asked.

It was also at this time that he particularly enjoyed the traditional Chinese medicine.

It can be said without any exaggeration,

that the elderly man had, in his lifetime, usually eaten various bizarre folk vegetables.

And as for drinking, there was nothing he hadn’t tried, from all sorts of varied sources.

This included not only all manners of strange spring waters but also various alcoholic drinks.

One could say there was nothing named that the elderly man hadn’t tasted.

But now, his face was filled with a look of ecstasy.

It really seemed as if he was thoroughly captivated by the small bit of traditional Chinese medicine before him.

At that time, the elderly man simply couldn’t understand why this traditional Chinese medicine tasted so good that it was almost preposterous.

As he felt that, no matter what, it was just traditional Chinese medicine after all.

However good tasting a medicine might be, how tasty could it be? This was why he was so baffled.

But now, reality seemed to slap him in the face.

At that moment, he really couldn’t say a word.

Because now, the evaluation of this traditional Chinese medicine had become more than just simple.

It made him feel as if there was nothing in the world that could taste better than this.

So at that moment, his face was also filled with a raptured expression, and his heart didn’t know how to continue to express himself.

He himself felt these things were simply too wonderful.

But at that time, he also didn’t know what more to say, because if he admitted his liking for drinking traditional Chinese medicine,

others might think he was sick if he said it out loud.

After all, which normal person casually enjoys drinking medicine?

At that time, he didn’t know how to explain his actions, so he simply stayed silent and kept drinking on his own.

All eyes around him were focused on him, everyone was curious.

What exactly was the situation with the elderly man now? Unfortunately, the elderly man simply did not explain.

"Good stuff really is good stuff."

At that time, the elderly man also nodded affirmatively, his face filled with satisfaction.

He had not expected at all that this thing could taste so good.

Anyway, no matter what, he was still very satisfied in his heart.

Gu Zhen was watching the elderly man at this time.

Actually, Gu Zhen himself completely didn’t understand what exactly the situation was now.

He had never seen someone like the elderly man before.

To say the elderly man was strange was indeed a bit strange,

but to say he wasn’t strange left Gu Zhen unable to comprehend what he was doing.

Who else would normally like drinking medicine? Moreover, he himself did not want to delay the elderly man’s condition.

But the elderly man seemed unwilling to let go.

He also did not tell Gu Zhen about what was really happening in his heart.

Anyway, he was only concerned with his own drinking there, not saying a wasteful word to Gu Zhen.
