Chapter 28 My 'Friend'
"what?"
Inside the ward, Jiang Mu also looked at the things Chi Hao had handed him.
The mesh packaging was very simple, like something that PXX had just bought wholesale. When he got close, he smelled a strong medicinal aroma.
Chi Hao scratched his head. "Sister Song gave it to you. Oh no, I forgot to ask her how to use it. Do I have to put it in a pot and boil it?"
Is this how you decoct traditional Chinese medicine?
He was no longer sure.
Upon hearing that it was given by Song Nanxi, Jiang Mu's eyes flickered.
He reached out his hand, "Give it to me."
"Oh."
Chi Hao, unsuspecting, placed the medicine packet in his hand, then took out his phone. "Let me ask her if this is for external or internal use."
"I'll ask myself."
"Huh?" Chi Hao didn't hear clearly.
"Give me Song Nanxi's contact information."
Chi Hao:! ! !
He was stunned for several seconds before, under Jiang Muye's increasingly dangerous gaze, he pushed Song Nanxi's WeChat contact to Jiang Muye.
I was shocked.
Brother Ye actually took the initiative to add girls as friends one day!
Unbelievable!

That night, Song Nanxi returned to her old house to stay.
She strolled into the kitchen and handed Aunt Liu a medicinal diet recipe. "Aunt Liu, my friend's ancestors were imperial medicinal diet chefs. This recipe was given to me by him. It's suitable for the elderly. You can make some for the old man to eat from time to time."
"Oh! It's something passed down from the palace! That's a real treasure!" Aunt Liu wiped her hands and happily accepted it. "Alright, let me study it. I don't know if I have the skills to make it."
Song Nanxi chuckled, "Aunt Liu, don't belittle yourself. Your cooking skills are top-notch!"
She gave a thumbs up.
Aunt Liu was amused and laughed. Oh dear, she really liked Miss Nanxi; she was so sweet-talking and down-to-earth.
Old Master Song had suffered hardships in his youth, but even after retiring from the military and becoming a wealthy businessman, he never became arrogant or extravagant. As he aged and felt his energy waning, he gradually handed over the company's affairs to his children, leaving only a few servants in the old house to handle their respective tasks.
Unlike Song Hai's side, where there are several chefs just responsible for cooking.
Occasionally, when they want a change of pace, they'll invite a professional chef to their home to cook for guests.
Song Nanxi reminded her, "Aunt Liu, don't forget to do it!"
In fact, the so-called friend was entirely fabricated by Song Nanxi. If she were to say that she had tailored this prescription to Old Master Song's physical condition, no one would believe her.
Sigh, proving that I'm not a complete idiot is still a long and arduous journey!
After speaking with Aunt Liu, Song Nanxi went to find the old man, carrying an exquisitely packaged box in her hands.
The velvet gift box had no writing on it and was tightly sealed, making the contents seem even more mysterious.
Grandpa Song was reading in his study when he noticed the thing in Song Nanxi's arms. He pushed up his reading glasses and asked, "Where did you go gallivanting again today?"
He exuded an imposing aura, but Song Nanxi was not afraid at all.
She said in a half-coquettish tone, "What do you mean by 'wild'? I clearly went to work, okay! Ling Sheng even wrote me a stack of plans today, saying he wants to mold me into a rising star. Sigh, being too capable isn't good either; you always have to bear several times more pressure than ordinary people."
Her arrogant manner amused Old Master Song, who pointed at her with a hint of annoyance.
"Okay, on that day, I'll definitely be there to support you."
Upon hearing this, Song Nanxi actually imagined the scene, her eyes brightening, "Then it's a deal?"
Grandpa Song: "I don't like to cheat."
"Pfft, you mean I'm cheating?"
Song Nanxi hummed softly, opened the box, and immediately a pleasant medicinal fragrance filled the air.
The box contained thirty pills, neatly arranged.
Anyway, anyone who sees it will think it's some kind of high-end skincare product.
Old Master Song got a headache as soon as he saw it. "Why are you doing this too? Take it away! I don't want to eat this stuff!"
There's a whole bunch of skincare products in the old house's warehouse.
"This is different from those skincare products! I specially formulated this for you. Don't you often suffer from insomnia and headaches? Take this, and I guarantee you'll sleep soundly until morning!"
Grandpa Song lifted his eyelids slightly, continued reading his book, and said without looking up, "It's no use eloquently saying anything."
"Tsk, Grandpa, aren't I your most beloved granddaughter?"
"What?"
"How can you bear to let my filial piety go to waste?" Song Nanxi pretended to wipe away tears, but she was actually secretly watching Old Master Song's reaction. "I spent a lot of money to buy this. If you don't eat it, my money will be wasted!"
"Hmph!" Old Master Song slammed the book down. "How much? I'll give you the money. You can take the book!"
Song Nanxi: "..."
The fist hardened.
But she couldn't use her crazy antics on this old man.
"You really won't eat?"
"Don't eat!"
Grandpa Song's attitude was very firm, and he thought Song Nanxi would try to persuade him again.
Song Nanxi said dejectedly, "Alright then, goodnight Grandpa, I'm going back to sleep now."
After saying that, he left dejectedly.
He looked dejected.
Old Master Song: "Hey, you..."
He stared blankly, while the pills on the table continued to emit a pleasant fragrance, making their presence felt.
He never liked eating this stuff, believing that all health products were scams—expensive and useless, and that practicing Tai Chi a few times in the morning was far more effective.
But this is a filial gesture from the granddaughter. Was Nanxi feeling sad just now?
Grandpa Song's mind raced, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that his earlier refusal had been too hurtful, and he felt a pang of guilt.
Just then, Butler Bai knocked on the door and came in.
Upon seeing the pills on the table and hearing the old man's words, I realized that they were also a gift from Miss Nanxi.
He said, "Miss Nanxi is very filial. She gave Aunt Liu a medicinal diet recipe when she came back just now. She said it was some kind of imperial medicinal diet and asked Aunt Liu to make it for you every day. I had a nutritionist look at it and said that this recipe has a very good nourishing effect and is good for your health at your age."
"This child... I already said no!"
Despite his complaints, Old Master Song couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips.
"Fine, fine, I'll make an exception for her! So that the kid won't be begging me for mercy!" He casually picked up a pill and popped it into his mouth. The disgust on his face changed after it entered his mouth. "Could Nanxi have been tricked? Why does this pill taste so sweet?"
It's not bad at all.
Not only did Grandpa Song eat it himself, but he also invited Butler Bai to try it.
"Try one, it tastes like a candy bean."
Butler Bai didn't refuse, and ate one with a smile, "It does look a bit like it, and it tastes pretty good."
It was delicious, and it cost Song Nanxi a lot of money.
She asked the shop staff for help this time; if she had the tools, she could have done even better.
As the two were talking, neither noticed a head suddenly peeking out from the doorway. Upon noticing that the pills in the box were missing, the head gave a triumphant smile and drifted away.
Plans are in place!
