Mu Zhongli heard this and laughed, saying: "Second Brother's family is indeed prosperous now, they can even afford to drink ginseng soup, unlike us poor folks who haven't even seen what ginseng looks like!"
Mu Zhongqing explained: "The children saw that I was ill and my body was very weak, so they gritted their teeth and bought two small ginsengs to help me recover. It's not like we are frivolously enjoying such good things!"
Ignoring the cold words of her eldest uncle, Cai Wei, as if she had not heard him, walked up to her father with the tray and handed him the bowl of medicine.
Mu Zhongqing took the medicine bowl, gave his daughter a gratified look, then drank it all down in one gulp with a frown. The bitterness made him scrunch up his face. Cai Wei quickly passed him the ginseng soup to rinse out the taste. Although the taste of the ginseng soup is not good, it was like heaven compared to the bitter medicine made with Huanglian.
