Chapter 1168: Chapter 371: Identity Revealed_2

"No, didn’t her in-laws send her to the ancestral house? What mischief can she still make?" Liu Tinglan said dismissively, believing her husband’s cousin had completely lost any chance to turn things around, and all that was left was to marry her off next year with her dowry, and all would be well.

Seeing this, Mo Yan couldn’t help but remind her, "You should still be careful, now that you and Brother Shen are staying in Jing City. If she takes advantage of your absence and starts her antics again, with crying, making scenes, and threatening suicide, couldn’t your in-laws still intervene on her behalf?"

Liu Tinglan frowned in annoyance, "Let her be. Even if she tries to please my in-laws in every possible way, it’s only a matter of getting a bigger dowry. At most, I’ll have to tolerate her for a year before she gets married. Brother Jin and I are in Jing City, and even when we return for the holidays, we hardly see her. I’ll just be more considerate to my in-laws in the future, I don’t believe she can completely win them over."

Mo Yan saw that she had her own ideas and it wasn’t her place to say much more; after all, it was their family matter, and it wouldn’t be good for her to interfere too much.

The two of them stopped discussing the disheartening topic and moved on to other more interesting matters. Halfway through their conversation, Mo Yan thought of something and leaned closer to whisper in Liu Tinglan’s ear, "Are those little pills effective? Did they work?"

Despite how powerful those pills were described in ancient texts, Mo Yan had never tested them herself or had others try them. It was Xuetuan who had tested them in his own way. He said they were usable, and that was the only reason she dared to give them to Liu Tinglan. As for the actual efficacy, she truly wasn’t certain.

Considering the timeline, they should have been used about three times by now, and the effects should be noticeable.

Liu Tinglan’s cheeks rapidly flushed with a shy crimson hue, and she nodded bashfully, "They are quite effective. If they could be sold to the women in the back quarters, I’m sure they would bring in a lot of silver." As for what made them so effective, she was truly too embarrassed to spell it out.

Mo Yan was quite pleased—this was her first time independently producing pills. Although she hadn’t invented them, she still felt a sense of achievement.

"These kinds of pills aren’t suitable for public sale. When the time is right, I’ll see if I can develop a similar pill to sell in the clinic."

For conservative ancient people, these pills were indeed inconvenient to use, yet there was much room for improvement, like changing their application from external to internal. This way, those buying the medicine wouldn’t feel embarrassed, and the sellers would have less trouble.

Many ancient remedies have been lost over time, and if they could be rediscovered one by one and improved to be conveniently ingested, just selling these health-regulating pills could make one wealthy.

Liu Tinglan’s eyes brightened, and she encouraged, "That’s a good idea, Yanyan, you’ll definitely succeed."

Mo Yan sighed, "Who knows, I can only do my best." Researching pills was much more troublesome than eating or drinking water. She spent a fixed amount of time each day researching in Space, but there was still little progress, and she couldn’t guarantee she would eventually figure it out.

At noon, Mo Yan made several of her signature dishes to treat Liu Tinglan.

Sitting at the dining table, Liu Tinglan noticed an unfamiliar child was present. She nudged her friend with her elbow and threw her a puzzled look.

Mo Yan looked up at the child sitting beside Lixiu, who was staring unblinkingly at the dishes on the table, restraining the deep longing in her eyes as she waited obediently for the meal to start. Mo Yan let out a sigh and quietly said to her friend, "She’s the child that Little Black brought back last year. It was only last month that she was willing to come out and eat at the table with us."

The child used to be shy and unwilling to speak, but gradually improved. Under Lixiu’s guidance, she finally agreed to come out for some sunshine. Still she rarely wanted to meet people until last month, when her condition improved a bit more and she dared to join them for meals. Usually, she would stay in her room, sitting by herself in silence.

Although the child rarely spoke, her wounds had all healed, with only light scars on her face, which would soon completely disappear. Her features weren’t exactly beautiful, but together they made for a pleasant appearance—a fine-looking little girl. From the outside, she seemed just like any normal child.

Liu Tinglan knew that Little Black had brought a child home last year, but since the child was afraid of meeting people, she had stayed in that room for months and refused to step outside, so Liu Tinglan had never seen her. Her heart went out to the child, and after a few glances, she asked, "She still can’t say where her home is?"
