When Meng Laofuren handed the box to Lin Chujiu, she seemed felt quite relieved. Her hand that was grabbing Lin Chujiu's clothes has loosened, but she still blinked her eyes.
Once the old mama understood Meng Laofuren, she said what it means to Lin Chujiu: "Young miss, the old lady asked you to take out the things inside."
Now that the Meng Family was in shock and chaos, and Meng Laofuren has fallen ill. Lin Chujiu felt embarrassed to come outside with a box. The people outside might think she took away the old lady's belongings.
At this moment, Meng Laofuren was still thinking about Lin Chujiu.
"Okay." Lin Chujiu wanted to treat the old lady first, but she couldn't brush away the old mama's kindness.
There was a lock on the box, the old mama took the key from Meng Laofuren's neck and handed it to Lin Chujiu.

When the box opened, she saw an ink-colored token and a yellowish colored letter. The letter looked like was written many years ago.
The texture of the token could no longer be identified, but it was a palm size and quite heavy. The front of the token was carved with the word "Lin", while the opposite side was carved with a group of flowers, that Lin Chujiu doesn't know.
The seal of the letter was made of wax, so at first glance, it can be seen that it was kept untouched. In front of the letter, there were written words: 'To my child Chujiu, from your parents'. With the handwriting, it can be seen that the writer was a woman.
Lin Chujiu didn't rush to open the letter. After taking the token and the letter, she went outside the room to get her medicine box.
However, as soon as she came out, she was stopped by the three Meng brothers and their wife.
"Chujiu, how is mother?" This was what the three Meng brothers care about.
"Chujiu, now that you're here, there is a big event, you must save… …" On the other hand, this what Meng Er furen and Meng San furen had said, but they were interrupted by Meng Shi: "Okay, let us ask mother's situation first."
"Grandmother's situation is very bad, I am going to get my medicine box." Lin Chujiu was not willing to say anything else.
Meng Shi wanted to let the maidservant next to him take it, but Lin Chujiu went straight ahead and drilled herself inside the carriage.
After closing the door and the windows, Lin Chujiu took out medicines for treating stroke in the medical system. Then, she put them inside her medicine box.
Lin Chujiu had a cold face when she came out, her whole body was also emitting a cold atmosphere, so when she came back, no one had dared to approach her.
In the modern time, the stroke cases were still hard to cure. Lin Chujiu could only make the old lady feel comfortable.
After giving the old lady an infusion, Lin Chujiu felt that the old lady had a lot more spirit and her mood had quite stabilized.
And after the old lady drank some ginseng soup, Lin Chujiu injected the old lady with a tranquilizer. She wanted Meng Laofuren to sleep and have some rest. Then, she told the old mama to take care of the old lady.
"Chujiu, is mother okay?" Outside the room, the three Meng brothers and their wife has been waiting.
Lin Chujiu, who looked tired said: "Grandmother's condition is stable now, but I'm afraid that she can only stay in bed."
The eyes of the three Meng brothers were red, but they knew her situation before. So after listening to it the second time, they were not that sad. They only said: "Mother is alright."
Alright?
How could she be alright?
Except for her head, she can't move at all. Can you call that alright?
* Meng Er Furen – Meng Second Son's wife.
*Meng San Furen – Meng Third Son's wife.
However, this was not the time to say those words. Lin Chujiu wiped the tears on her face and asked: "Why grandmother suddenly had a stroke? What happened?" When she saw her last time, Meng Laofuren was healthy. She didn't show any symptoms of a stroke.
When Lin Chujiu finished her words, Meng Er Furen tears fell down: "Chujiu, mother, she is… …" Meng Er Furen couldn't make a clear sound, nor say a complete sentence.
Lin Chujiu didn't understand immediately the situation. But, she was sure it must be a big event: "What happened in the end?"
"Your cousins… …." Meng Er Furen said as an opening while sobbing. On the other hand, Meng San Furen already cried in the arms of Meng Sanye. Meng Da Furen stood still like a puppet. And the three Meng brothers has a face that looked like they wanted to say something.
"What the hell is it?" Lin Chujiu asked again. Meng Da Furen bit her lips and refused to smile. She shook her head firmly, then said: "Nothing is happening. The time is not too early, you should go back."
"I'm not stupid, you all look like this, so how can I believe that nothing is going on?" The whole family's face looked very gloomy, so how can things be okay?
"Chujiu… …" Meng Da Furen opened her mouth, but she was interrupted by the Meng Er Furen: "Chujiu, there is, there is something big going on. Your second cousin, third cousin, and fourth cousin had an accident. They were all gone."
Meng Er Furen's son was Meng Family's only grandson.
Aside from Meng Da Furen, the other furens sighed in relief, when they opened it up.
"What do you mean? They all disappeared?" Countless terrible thoughts flashed in Lin Chujiu's mind. Meng Shi nodded his head to confirmed Lin Chujiu's guess, then said: "It is just like what you are thinking, they were kidnapped. The other party sent the hands of your three cousins together with their jade ornament."
"What do they want?" Lin Chujiu had no impression of her three cousins. So, although she sounded worried, she can ask questions very calmly.
"After three days, they want you to come in the Wind Cliff Valley. You must come alone." It was a choice between grandson and granddaughters of Meng Family, which was very difficult. Meng Laofuren doesn't want Lin Chujiu to get involved. So, she warned her three sons not to mention this matter to Lin Chujiu before she loses consciousness.
"Chujiu… save your cousins, save your cousins please." Meng Er Furen and Meng San Furen knelt in front of Lin Chujiu. They know this was wrong, but… …
Those were their children.
Meng Da Furen also wanted to speak. But, when she remembered the old lady's words to her earlier, she chooses to endure.
Meng Laofuren told her that she is now the headmaster of the family. As the headmaster, she cannot be so selfish.
"Chujiu, this is our family's business, we will solve it ourselves." Meng Da Furen pressed down the pain in her heart and said without emotion.
One of the three children were also her child.
"Sister-in-law… …" When Meng Er Furen and Meng San Furen heard her words, they became more desperate.
How can their sister-in-law be like this?
"Did you forget what mother said?" Meng Da Furen's eyes became teary, but she refuses to let them flow.
She remembered the teachings of the old lady, the men of the Meng family has retired in managing the family's business. The women of Meng Family must stand up.
Meng Er Furen and Meng San Furen immediately closed their mouth. The Meng three brothers also lowered their head and didn't dare to look at Lin Chujiu.
They don't want Lin Chujiu to get hurt, but… …
They can't think of another way!
