70: The Soldier King's Supernatural Wife, Three Babies in One Child

Three days later, Li Hongmei brought a strange man.

He was tall and strong, with bright eyes and half of his face hidden in a thick beard.

He followed behind Li Hongmei and smiled admiringly at Lu Chaoyan without saying anything.

Lu Chaoyan has been waiting for him to come during this period of time.

She asked Lu Xiang to take Shi Haiyan out to buy some delicious food, go shopping for a while, and not come back so early.

"Zhao Yan, my dear children, it was my grandma who was blind and didn't recognize Zheng Yan as Mu Lao's grandson. I'm really sorry for you."

Li Hongmei looked at Lu Chaoyan guiltily and took out three red envelopes and three velvet boxes from her bag.

"Give me three god-grandchildren, I wish them long life and happiness for all their years."

"Thank you, grandma. I'm sorry for the expense."

"Well, we are all family, let's not say such foreign words."

Li Hongmei smiled and looked at the man, "This is Uncle Zhengyan's second son, Mu Liangfeng."

Mu Liangfeng pulled off his beard, revealing a hard face with sharp edges and corners, as if carved by a knife.

He has thick eyebrows, big eyes, a nose like a hanging gallbladder, and his whole body exudes a wildness, like a snow leopard roaming on the snowy field.

He took out a palm-sized gold lock and a red jade token from his pocket.

He said apologetically, "Sister-in-law, my name is Mu Liangfeng. Before I came here, I didn't know you had three children, so I only prepared one gift. I'll make it up to you next time."

Lu Chaoyan took the gold lock and jade token and said generously, "Hello, second cousin. My name is Lu Chaoyan. You are so polite!"

Mu Liangfeng smiled and said, "Hello, I received your letter last year, but the weather was bad over there, so we couldn't come out and meet you. I'm really sorry."

Li Hongmei also helped explain, "Your aunt's health has not been good in the past few years. If it weren't for the ginseng you gave her last year, she would have passed away."

Li Hongmei is the aunt of Mu's aunt's mother. When she talked about her niece's illness, her eyes were wet.

Mu Liangfeng also looked at Lu Chaoyan with great gratitude, "Sister-in-law, can you tell me what my cousin has been through over the years?"

"Yes, after he was brought back by the Si family, he became Si Zhengyang's twin brother..."

Lu Chaoyan talked about Si Zhengyan's past and present.

He no longer concealed what Jiang Xiuqin had said.

The excuse was that she came here and found out from an acquaintance of the Jane family.

After hearing this, Mu Liangfeng was furious, "My aunt was actually murdered by someone she knew!"

Lu Chaoyan said seriously, "It should be an acquaintance without a doubt, but I don't know if you know the so-called aunt?"

"My Mu family's ancestors didn't have any close cousins, and I've never heard my parents say that there are relatives in the family who call themselves aunts. Could it be that she heard it wrong?"

Mu Liangfeng said doubtfully, and looked at Lu Chaoyan, "Is the acquaintance of the Jian family reliable? Why can she tell you this?"

"There is no way to verify her words, and I don't know whether they are true or not. There is no one from your family, so it should be someone from the Li family. Someone must have arranged it in advance, deliberately not wanting Li Mingxiu to go to the northwest."

She had suspected Lin Fangrou, but she was an orphan adopted by the Li family.

Twenty years ago, even if she had the intention, she probably wouldn't have been able to pull off an assassination by bandits.

There must be other conspiracies and masterminds behind the Mu Bangning accident.

She suspected Jian Tingxun and Li Qing because they were the biggest beneficiaries around the Mu family.

"You're right. We have been trying to find out the truth behind my aunt's accident over the years. We all suspect that someone deliberately prevented my uncle from accompanying my aunt to the northwest."

Mu Liangfeng told Lu Chaoyan the results of their investigation.

When the two people's information collided, their guesses were almost the same, and they both believed that it was the Li family who did it.

Mu Liangfeng added: "Don't contact my grandfather for the time being, and don't go looking for him. It's not safe yet."

He spoke cryptically, fearing that Lu Chaoyan would not understand, so he added, "My grandfather did not recognize Si Zhengyang, probably to protect him. Unfortunately, he was targeted by Li Qing, who was determined to squeeze out the last bit of favor my grandfather had in the South."

Lu Chaoyan smiled deeply, "It may not be a bad thing. With him as a target, we can also tell who is a human and who is a ghost."

Seeing how insightful she was, Mu Liangfeng nodded and expressed great admiration for the beautiful wife his cousin had married.

Then they talked about the telegram they received from Lu Chaoyan.

"Don't worry about my cousin's matter. My eldest brother has already led a group of people to the southwest, and this time, I will hide my identity and go to my cousin to help him."

"thank you all."

Lu Chaoyan happily took out a pen and paper and wrote down a few people's names and a code word.

One of them is Ji Xiaoxiao.

"After my cousin leaves, he can talk to them to find out more about the situation, but don't trust them completely. You must be especially wary of Jian Xiyuan, as she is a very cunning and ruthless person."

Then he took out a photo of Si Zhengyan and said, "This is Si Zhengyan. Look carefully, don't help the wrong person."

"Okay, haha, I won't help the wrong person, my cousin is so good-looking!"

Mu Liangfeng put away the note and looked at the photo of Si Zhengyan, who resembled his father Mu Rongan.

He then talked about the shortage of medicine in the Northwest, the rampant spread of various infectious and parasitic diseases, and how cancer was a common disease among the people.

Especially stomach cancer. His mother is in the advanced stage of stomach cancer and only has a few months left to live.

"I heard that my brother's wife is a miracle doctor. Do you have any good prescription? I don't ask for my mother's illness to be cured, but it will be better. Her miserable condition after the illness is really heartbreaking."

Lu Chaoyan was not surprised by what he said.

The conditions in the Northwest are harsh, and it is an area where animals gather, making it most likely to breed zoonotic infectious diseases.

Unclean water resources and food shortage are the very causes of stomach diseases.

Unfortunately, there was nothing she could do. Saving thirty people a year was already her limit, but the world was so big that there were countless people suffering from terminal illnesses.

The only solution is to develop better drugs.

"Second cousin, you have found the right person. I specialize in treating cancer, but your aunt must come to me. There is no other way."

Hearing this, Mu Liangfeng asked in surprise: "My mother has stomach cancer. She is in so much pain every day that she can't eat. The doctor said that she can only survive for another half a year at most. Can this be cured?"

"Of course, I can definitely cure my aunt's illness."

Lu Chaoyan relaxed her brows and smiled confidently.

"Last time, Grandma Li wrote to me about my aunt's illness, so I planned to take the children to the northwest to visit my uncle and aunt."

A trace of sadness and helplessness appeared on Mu Liangfeng's resolute face.

“Life in the Northwest is too hard, and transportation is inconvenient. Your child is so young, don’t go there.

We can't come to your place either, how about you go to Longzhou?

My eldest sister-in-law’s family has relatives there.

I will send a message home and ask my sister-in-law to take my mother to Longzhou, and you can take the children to meet them there."

Longzhou is located at the junction of the northwest and southwest, and can be considered a prosperous city.
