There were also people from other branches here. When they heard Jiang Xue's words, sure enough, some of their expressions changed.
Their juniors were probably among the ranks of those people.
Youyue Ma wanted to step forward to explain, but Sima Zhi Yuan answered her first.
"I told you a long time ago, don't just stay at home and cultivate. Pay more attention to other things and use your brain. That way, you won't become an idiot. Why don't you listen to me! Look at it now, it's really like this! "Sima Zhi Yuan said regretfully.
"Pfft —" The others did not dare to laugh because of Jiang Xue's prestige in the family. However, Sima Youyue did not hold back and laughed out loud.
Great-grandfather was cursing in a roundabout way!
To be able to say something like that, wasn't he brainless?!
"Sima Zhi Yuan!"
"I can hear you, why are you shouting so loudly!" Sima Zhi Yuan dug his ears, "Am I wrong?"
Was it right to scold someone? You're a furball!
However, before Jiang Xue could say anything, he continued, "Youyue had clearly refined everyone's antidote pills and distributed them to all of you. But what about you? She was suspicious of this and that was why she didn't give those maidservants any antidote pills. When it comes to you, it's like Youyue only detoxifies the people from these branches, not your people. Tell me, have you become stupid from practicing martial arts? "
"Is that really the case?" The elders asked the people around them.
Those women lowered their heads and didn't say anything, silently agreeing with Sima Zhi Yuan's words.
"If that's the case, then she can't be blamed."
He was referring to Sima Youyue.
Originally, there was no need for the people of the clan to come out for such a thing as the Qu City Convention, but because they had sent letters home in the past few days, saying that something had happened here. They also said that because of the family, the matter could not be solved, so they came together.
However, he did not expect things to turn out like this!
When they returned, they would definitely teach those women a lesson. How dare they lie about the truth?
Those women received the reproachful eyes of their ancestors and did not dare to speak. Although they knew that they would be punished when they returned, this was the only way to get them to come and pressure Sima Youyue to detoxify their daughters and granddaughters.
Sima Youyue thought that those angry people would blame her, but she didn't expect them to be so reasonable.
"Even if it was their fault the first time, but later on, when they repeatedly expressed their apologies and asked her to detoxify the maidservants, Sima Xiu Qi and Huang Ying Ying deliberately obstructed and evaded. What can we say about this? Isn't that because they don't want to detoxify the poison? "
"That's not right. Since they have already apologized, saving a life is more meritorious than building a seven-storied pagoda. Xiu Qi, what's more, this is the younger generation of the family! "To be able to call Sima Xiu Qi by his name, it seemed like he was from the same generation as Sima Zhi Yuan.
He really didn't expect that such a matter would cause so many elders of the family to appear. It seemed like the other party wanted to make a big deal out of this matter!
So be it. Anyway, a barefooted person is not afraid of someone with shoes. The bigger the commotion, the more difficult it would be for the other party to get off the stage!
. "That's not right!" She didn't want to see her grandfather being wronged and said, "We agreed on this at the time. Don't regret your choice. It was their choice, so why blame my grandfather? Besides, I've been refining pills in my room these days and haven't seen them at all. I didn't even see them apologise. "
Her words were very strong and directly slapped that person's face.
However, that person wasn't angry and said, "If that's the case, then we apologize to you for what happened. Please detoxify the poison for the girls."
After speaking, he even bowed to Sima Youyue.
What — —?
The Sima family actually had such reasonable elders? She thought that they were all like Jiang Xue!
She couldn't get angry with them, but she wasn't willing to just let it go.
So her face was still ugly.
"I'm not a member of the Sima family. Don't think that I'll give in just because you said that." She snorted.
That old man smiled and said, "Of course we know. So, we're not asking you to treat them voluntarily. We're willing to pay you. "
"My payment isn't cheap. Everyone outside knows this."
"Yes, we'll definitely pay you a satisfactory payment." The old man smiled.
Seeing that the other party's attitude was so good, Sima Youyue said reluctantly, "Alright then, I have to see the payment first. Moreover, I won't treat this person's granddaughter! " She pointed at Jiang Xue and said, "She wanted to kill me just now. I don't dare to deal with such a person!"
"You –" Jiang Xue was furious. She would treat others but not herself?!
"As you wish."
The old man didn't force her. Anyway, that person wasn't his junior. If Jiang Xue liked to cause trouble, then she would solve this matter herself.
The mess in the courtyard told of what had happened just now. It wasn't strange that Sima Youyue would make such a request.
After all, which professional master didn't have their own temper? Not to mention such an outstanding junior like her!
Sima You Yue finally smiled. This old man really knew how to act!
"If that's the case, then let's talk about the payment. It's not that I want to say this, but the longer this Hundred Days of Sleep poison is delayed, the more damage it will cause to the body and the harder it will be to recover. After all, this consumes one's life force. Moreover, the herbs are extremely precious. Not only are they good herbs, but they are also very rare and hard to find. Sigh, it's hard to say for now. You guys go inside and I'll explain it to you guys … "
The corners of everyone's lips twitched. Her style had changed too quickly! Didn't she say so much just to extort a sum of money from them?
But what could they do? Those women were too short-sighted. They had to pay this sum of money even if they didn't want to!
Jiang Xue saw that they had all entered the house and only the people she brought were left. She was so angry that she stomped her feet.
"This little b * tch, I'll definitely teach you a lesson!"
Seeing her so angry, Miao Xihua was so anxious that she was about to cry when she thought of Sima Youyue refusing to treat her daughter's poison.
She had asked someone to pass the message to the elders in the family so that they would oppress Sima Youyue. In the end, they didn't say anything and just gave in. What was this?!
"Mother, that b * tch won't treat Xi 'er's poison. What will Xi' er do?"
"What are you crying for? She's not dead yet!" Miao Xihua shouted. "It's not only that little b * tch who knows how to treat the poison. Wasn't the prescription given by the City Lord of Tangerine City? Then he should know how to treat the poison too. Even if he doesn't know how to refine the pill, he should remember the prescription. Go and find him. Are you afraid that you won't be able to find the antidote? "
Miao Xihua was stunned. "I know that too. But we don't know where that person went. We can't find him at all!"
