Traveling through the Poisonous Concubine

Chapter 294 The Lump on Uncle Mu's Head

When Yun Yuxi saw the various delicious dishes piled up in front of her, she suddenly felt inexplicably irritated. She widened her bright eyes slightly and glared at Yan Wuque who was sitting next to her.

When Yan Wuque noticed that sharp gaze, a trace of embarrassment instantly emerged on his face. He lowered his head involuntarily, as if trying to avoid that gaze that seemed to be able to penetrate people's hearts, but the old man of the Mu family seemed to be heartless and laughed out loud. The hearty laughter echoed in the whole room, which seemed particularly abrupt.

Yun Yuxi frowned slightly when she saw this, then picked up a fragrant chicken leg and gently placed it in the bowl of the old man of the Mu family, and said with a little intimacy in her tone: "Grandfather, you should also try this chicken leg, it tastes delicious."

After that, she quickly picked up another chicken leg and placed it in front of Uncle Mu. With a sweet smile on her face, she said softly, "Uncle, eat it quickly. After you finish eating, we will play a super fun game together."

However, during the entire process, she did not pick up even a chicken leg for Yan Wuque beside her. This subtle action did not seem to escape Yan Wuque's eyes. He looked at Yun Yuxi's busy figure, and couldn't help feeling a little lost and jealous.

He knew very well that Yun Yuxi understood him very well and knew that he was not very fond of food like chicken legs. But at this moment, his heart felt sour as if a jar of vinegar had been overturned.

Uncle Mu happily took the chicken leg and started eating it in big mouthfuls, saying, "Okay, okay, I want to eat more. The chicken leg is so delicious. Sister, you should eat it quickly too."

Yun Yuxi picked up a piece of green vegetables with chopsticks and put it into the bowl of someone who had been staring at her. The man, who had been a little depressed, instantly smiled as if the sun had dispelled the dark clouds.

Yun Yuxi noticed this scene and sighed inwardly. She glared at Yan Wuque beside her fiercely, with a hint of helplessness and entanglement in her eyes, as if blaming him for being so sensitive all the time.

"Grandfather, after dinner, I will check on you and uncle. Maybe your uncle can recover," Yun Yuxi said as she served the dishes. She was pregnant and didn't eat much. She drank vitamins, so the morning sickness was suppressed.

"Girl, you should eat something. Eat something that you can eat." The old man of the Mu family knew that his granddaughter was pregnant and might not be able to eat many foods, so he reminded her gently.

"Well, I'll have a bowl of soup," Yun Yuxi said as she served everyone a bowl of soup.

The meal was cheerful and happy. The old man of the Mu family also showed his long-lost temperament and had a few drinks at the table.

"Uncle Zhao, take my uncle to wash and rinse his mouth. I will check on him later. The food in Uncle Zhao's kitchen is getting cold. Go and eat when you are done," Yun Yuxi ordered in a serious tone.

Uncle Zhao coaxed Uncle Mu to go out.

The old man of the Mu family frowned slightly, with a trace of worry in his eyes: "Girl, your words make me feel very uneasy. There are undercurrents in Kyoto, so you must be more careful when you go back this time. Your uncle is in this state now. If he is used by those with evil intentions, it will be bad."

He sighed softly, stood up slowly, and paced back and forth in the room, as if thinking about something important. "Alas, the departure of your first and second uncles was indeed too strange. I always felt that there was something hidden. Now your third uncle is like this. If I can't find out the truth, I'm afraid I won't be able to rest easy."

Yun Yuxi's eyes became redder and she bit her lips tightly, trying to hold back the grief in her heart: "Grandfather, no matter what, we must get to the bottom of this. The eldest and second uncles must not leave in such an unclear way, we must avenge them!"

Yan Wuque also had a solemn expression on his face. He clenched his fists and said firmly, "Don't worry, Yu'er, we will not let go of any clues and will find out the truth so that our uncles can rest in peace.

"Grandfather, I will try my best to cure my third uncle. How can my Mu family be cowardly? My Mu family needs someone to stand up. Since Grandfather understands everything, let the storm come even harder."

"Girl, actually I also have selfish motives. Your eldest uncle, second uncle, your mother are all gone, and your grandmother has also passed away. Now there are only your third uncle, you, and me, an old man half buried in the ground, left in my Mu family." After saying this, the old man of the Mu family choked up several times.

"Girl, I think it would be great if your third uncle could live happily like this. The Mu family can't stand any more blows. Now, at least your third uncle can be happier and doesn't have to think about the past and disasters of our Mu family."

"Grandfather, those people outside have very complicated minds. They don't see these things as simply as we do.

On the way back to the capital, the prince told me everything that happened on the way. Just to say that the third uncle has become stupid now, but even though he is like this now, those people with ulterior motives behind him still don't want to let our Mu family go easily, and they are determined to cut the grass and root it out. Alas, it really fits the saying 'the tree wants to be quiet but the wind does not stop'. "

Yun Yuxi couldn't stop sobbing as she spoke, tears welling up in her eyes as if they would burst out at any time.

"Girl, I am old now. After I come back this time, I will never go to that border area again. I just hope to live a peaceful life with Heng'er. Even though I feel very unwilling about the current situation of the Mu family, the reality is that the Mu family no longer has enough strength to fight against it."

The old man of the Mu family had a weathered face, and his eyes revealed deep helplessness and fatigue. Every word and every sentence he spoke was so sincere, as if they were the truest feelings in his heart.

"The Mu family still has me, and my husband is still here." Yun Yuxi said firmly, with a hint of stubbornness in her eyes, as if telling everyone that the Mu family will not fall, and they still have hope.

"That's right. There's also me. From now on, the affairs of the Mu family will be the affairs of my Regent Palace. I will thoroughly investigate the injustice of the Mu family, so you can relax.

The most important thing right now is to see if we can find a way to cure Third Uncle and make him recover as before. "The man at the side spoke in a steady and powerful tone. He held Yun Yuxi's hand tightly, giving her endless strength and support.

"Girl, thank you. I'll do whatever you say." The old man of the Mu family was finally convinced.

"Sister, sister, look, I've washed my hands. Why don't you play a game? Let's start." Uncle Mu ran in with a happy face and took Yun Yuxi's hand.

"Play games. It's fun. Then you just listen to me, okay? Otherwise, I won't play this game," Yun Yuxi comforted Uncle Mu as if she was coaxing a child.

"Okay. I will listen to you, sister. Whatever you say is what it goes. You promised to play with me." Uncle Mu looked at Yun Yuxi pitifully with his big eyes, fearing that Yun Yuxi would go back on her word.

"Uncle, sit on a small stool with your eyes blindfolded. Let me see if you are good or not," Yun Yuxi coaxed.

As expected, Uncle Mu was very obedient and sat there quietly. Yun Yuxi smiled and said, "Uncle is very obedient, so there is no need to cover your eyes."

Then Yun Yuxi quickly felt Uncle Mu's pulse with both hands, nodded, and instructed Yan Wuque to feed the cut fruit to Uncle Mu.

Uncle Mu continued to sit quietly while eating fruit. As a doctor, Yun Yuxi knew that Uncle Mu might have nerve compression in his brain, which led to dementia, so she began to examine his head.

"Uncle, can I comb your hair?" Yun Yuxi was afraid that Uncle Mu would not cooperate, and the third uncle of the Mu family was skilled in martial arts. If he did not cooperate, he might hurt someone.

"Okay, okay," Uncle Mu agreed.

Yun Yuxi spread out Uncle Mu's hair and searched bit by bit. Finally, she felt a walnut-sized bump on the back of his head. Yun Yuxi pressed it with her hand, and Uncle Mu jumped up as if reflexively.

This frightened Yun Yuxi, and she hurriedly coaxed him. It took a while for Uncle Mu to calm down.

Then Yun Yuxi looked at the bag carefully again, and already had an idea in her mind, and then she gently fixed Uncle Mu’s hair.

"Grandfather, my uncle has treatment. He will recover within half a month," Yun Yuxi said firmly.

Uncle Zhao, who was walking to the door, burst into tears when he heard this.
