Chapter 102 (2/2)

Chen shi quickly said: “Zi Hao is too naive. Husband, do not get angry with him. After today, this concubine will definitely take care in teaching him. This concubine is certain that Zi Hao will change for the better.”

Feng Jin Yuan did not want to contradict Chen shi. After all, her performance today, up to this moment, was very decent. He also truly hoped that Chen shi could maintain this and reform Zi Hao. Teach him to know some human affection, thus he nodded and did not say anything else.

Feng Yu Heng glanced at Chen Yu and found that Chen Yu kept her head lowered without saying anything. She also did not get close to Chen shi. The work she had done previously in maintaining the peace was now done by Chen shi. As for her elder brother’s character being attacked, she had absolutely no reaction.

The matriarch took care of everyone eating and said to Feng Yu Heng: “How about explaining some more dishes.”

Feng Yu Heng smiled and gave a simple but clear explanation: “This is a cold dish of pig heart mixed with elevated gastrodia, oriental arborvitae seed, Chinese angelica and wild jujube. It helps with falling asleep and eliminates fatigue. Assorted lotus root slices, it quenches thirst, reduces internal heat and replenishes blood. Shredded chicken and sheet jelly mixed with sesame paste, this is good for the liver and kidney, darkens the hair and helps slow aging…”

She gave an explanation for every dish, causing everyone to fight over the food. Even Feng Jin Yuan found interest in this.

In these dishes, most of the medical herbs had been delivered from Hundred Herb Hall; however, every dish had some special medical ingredients that were secretly retrieved from her pharmacy. For example, in the dish of ginseng chicken, it used a piece of five-hundred year old ginseng. The effect would naturally be better than normal ginseng.

Han shi’s body had always been poor. Hearing that these medical herbs had some effect, she could not help but eat some more of each dish. Perhaps there was some psychological effect, but she really felt that she had recovered quite well. She also felt that she was no longer as dazed as she was previously.

As for Chen shi, this was a change from the forceful way she ate previously. She now ate slowly one bite at a time. She now ate and continuously praised the taste of the dishes. The matriarch also ate an awful lot and could not be bothered with speaking.

But nobody could have foreseen that as they were eating, Chen shi would suddenly fall backwards.

Sitting beside her, Feng Jin Yuan’s reaction was fast, as he subconsciously reached out to support her; however, Chen shi was too heavy, and this grab also caused Feng Jin Yuan to also fall to the ground.

After this, Chen shi began to convulse for some reason. A bit of white foam appeared at the corner of her mouth. A little while later, she actually began to vomit.

Fen Dai felt nauseous and quickly hid behind Han shi, not wanting to look at Chen shi at all.

The other people were stunned in place, completely struggling to understand. They were happily eating, so why would this sort of thing happen.

“Go call a doctor! Quickly go call a doctor!” The matriarch used her cane to slam the ground while yelling, and some servants immediately departed.

Just as everyone was scrambling about in a hurry, Chen Yu, who was still sitting at the table, suddenly put her head in her hands and furrowed her brows tightly. She weakly said: “My head really hurt. What exactly is happening?”

Fen Dai suddenly said: “It shouldn’t be from the medicine, right?”

The matriarch was stunned, then she thought of the table full of food cooked with medicine, her heart suddenly filled with doubt. But after feeling out her own body’s condition, she did not feel that anything was wrong? Those dishes with medical herbs were very exquisite, and she felt that they were very delicious. She even wanted to have some more.

Han shi also felt this was odd and quietly muttered: “The food cooked with medicine shouldn’t have any problems, right? I feel that they had quite a good effect after eating them.”

“What do you understand?” Fen Dai quietly rebuked her: “Do not speak nonsense.”

But still, the people felt that there was nothing wrong with the food. Presently, Chen shi and Chen Yu were the only ones with any reaction, so they couldn’t help but feel more cautious. For a while, nobody dared to continue eating. Of course, they could no longer stomach eating because Chen shi vomiting was truly too disgusting.

Some servants busied themselves with cleaning up the mess. Feng Jin Yuan took off his now-dirty robe and handed it to a servant. Not long after, another servant came and gave him a clean robe.

“So your plan was to poison us to death!” Feng Zi Hao once again began his attack. This time, he spoke boldly and assuredly. He pointed at Chen shi, who was on the ground, and said; “My mother just returned to the manor, and you come out with this trick. Feng Yu Heng, what sort of heart do you have?”

Feng Jin Yuan’s expression also sank and coldly said: “A-Heng, give father an explanation.”

Feng Yu Heng blinked: “Everyone ate the food. Does anyone feel anything wrong?”

On this point, everyone was quite obedient. Aside from Chen shi and her daughter, everyone shook their heads.

The matriarch glanced at everyone and spoke: “Guards! Go bring the person in charge of the kitchen!”
