Chapter 680: Ouyang Jinguo
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Shen Xiaoxiao had some understanding of Ouyang Jinguo’s character. It was as if he had shut off social interaction. He only cared about his studies and didn’t care about anything else.
Of course, Ouyang Le was an exception.
Although Ouyang Jinguo didn’t seem to know anything, he was the person who knew the most in the entire Ouyang family. Because he didn’t care, he could see more clearly than others.
“Shen Girl, why did you capture Lele?”
Getting straight to the point?
Shen Xiaoxiao liked to deal with people like this. It was straightforward and simple.
Moreover, Ouyang Jinguo hated it when others played tricks on him.
The more straightforward it was, the easier it was to get the information.
“Because she knew that I was poisoned by the Suoyin Flower Tears. Even the people closest to me don’t know. I’m very curious how she knew.”
Ouyang Jinguo didn’t expect Shen Xiaoxiao to be so direct. Of course, this news also surprised and shocked him. How could she be affected by the Ouyang family’s thousand-year-old toxic Suoyin Flower Tears?
“How? How could you be affected by the Suoyin Flower Tears?”
“Because I’m a member of the Shen family. It’s that simple.”
Hearing Shen Xiaoxiao’s answer, Ouyang Jinguo’s heart stopped. Yes, how could he forget that Shen Xiaoxiao was a member of the Shen family?
“It seems that Lin Jiahui still hasn’t given up. Even now, she still wants to save Uncle.”
Hearing Ouyang Jinguo’s words, Shen Xiaoxiao was puzzled. Ouyang Jinguo knew the old woman?
“You know Lin Jiahui?”
“Sigh, I know that you captured Lele to ask me to come over. After all, in the entire Ouyang family, no one knows her better than I do. Of course, Ouyang Tian is an exception.”
“Lin Jiahui is my mother’s elder sister. When my mother was young, she was chosen as the candidate for the position of the madam of the Ouyang family. She was brought up by the Ouyang family since she was young.”
“Coincidentally, at that time, Xinhua was founded, and many things were left to be done. The impact on the Lin family was huge, and they were cast as villains. In the entire Lin family, only my mother and Lin Jiahui were saved.”
“At that time, Lin Jiahui was 14 years old, and my mother was 13 years old.”
“My mother and Lin Jiahui had a very good relationship. From then on, the two of them lived together in the Lin family. For some reason, they fell in love with Ouyang Jue. Ouyang Jue was more than 20 years older than Lin Jiahui, but the rules of the Ouyang family had always been… As the successor of the family head, he absolutely could not enjoy women other than those with the Suoyin flower tattoo on them.”
“It was just that at that time, Ouyang Jue loved Lin Jiahui very deeply, and there were always times when he could not control himself. It was just that this matter was secretly obtained by Ouyang Tian. He deliberately pretended to be a brother to deceive Ouyang Jue’s trust. He secretly gave the Suoyin Flower Tears to Ouyang Jue. He had taken the antidote in advance, so something happened to Ouyang Jue. My father simply didn’t do anything and directly seized the position of the old patriarch, seizing the position of patriarch.”
“After that, Lin Jiahui wanted to report to the elders. Ouyang Tian originally wanted to execute her directly, but Ouyang Jue’s confidant found out and sent her away early. It was just that Lin Jiahui’s fate wasn’t good. Later, Ouyang Tian found out and sent people to defile her. Fortunately, she ran quickly and hid from them ever since. There was no news of her anymore.”
“Previously, the Ouyang family’s actions were getting bigger and bigger. I sensed that something was wrong and started to transfer a portion of the property. After Lele’s accident, I went to look for Lin Jiahui. She can be considered my aunt. In addition, my mother doted on me the most, so… I used the Suoyin Flower to exchange with Lin Jiahui and saved Lele’s life.”
Shen Xiaoxiao didn’t expect that Lin Jiahui would have such a fate. No wonder she hated the Ouyang family to the bone.
There were probably many things that Ouyang Jinguo hadn’t told her about.
“Actually, from what my mother knew, Lin Jiahui’s days in the Ouyang family could be said to be like walking on thin ice. Although the Ouyang family was bright and beautiful on the outside, they were already rotten to the core.”
“Lin Jiahui was almost defiled by those men from the Ouyang family’s side branches several times. Even the servants of the Ouyang family had some dirty tricks and wanted to make a move on her.”
“If it weren’t for Ouyang Jue, Lin Jiahui would have died at least a hundred times. Therefore, although Lin Jiahui was young at that time, she was absolutely sincere to Ouyang Jue. Look at how many years it has been, and she is still so stubborn.”
“No wonder Lin Jiahui was satisfied with destroying the Lin family. However, she was really amazing. Back then, she was r*ped by someone, gave birth to a child, and then abandoned it deliberately to my grandfather’s side. It seems that she knows the secret of my Shen family. Even when I was kidnapped and sold abroad, she was the one who planned it. She let my Shen family die, and then she could get the key to my Shen family’s fund. This idea is really good.”
“No matter how good the fight was, I don’t think she had planned all of her plans. However, there was a variable like you.”
“Indeed, there was a variable like me.”
“Sigh, you can ask me anything you want to know. Lele is too stubborn. I can’t protect her forever. She’s always unwilling. What a sin…”
Shen Xiaoxiao looked at Ouyang Jinguo. Ouyang Le was really lucky to have such a father who cared about her.
“Ouyang Le is lucky to have a father like you. I can promise you to let her live, but I also have to know how she found out that I was hit by the Suoyin Flower Tears. You know your daughter. She is not an easy person to deal with.”
“I will try to persuade her. If it continues like this, there is nothing I can do. I am also half-buried in the ground.”
“You are a good father.”
“Hahaha, a good father? The people of the Ouyang family are naturally cold and distant. If she didn’t have the only blood in my body, I wouldn’t care. However, there is nothing I can do. I don’t have a second Suoyin flower to save her life.”
“Is the prescription that the Ouyang family used to cure the Suoyin Flower Tears real?”
Ouyang Jinguo sighed. Who knew if it was real or not? However, the prescription that had been passed down for thousands of years was real.
“It’s true for a thousand-year-old prescription. I’m not sure if it’s effective.”
“What about the Banxia? The Banxia was also passed down by your mother. What’s the use of that thing?”
Ouyang Jinguo didn’t expect Shen Xiaoxiao to know about the Banxia. However, he remembered that he had saved Ouyang Le with the Suoyin flower. His sister-in-law could also use the Banxia to save her three children.
“Back then, Mother gave the Banxia to Sister-in-law. This Banxia is the nemesis of the Nine-Tailed Snake. Back then, my mother was very sick. If it weren’t for that Banxia, my mother wouldn’t have been able to hold on for so long. You don’t know that women with the Suoyin flower tattoo would be used as tools by the Nine-Tailed Snake in the end. It wasn’t humans who controlled the Nine-Tailed Snake, but the Nine-Tailed Snake who controlled the humans.”
“As long as the Banxia is roasted, its fragrance alone will be enough to deter the Nine-Tailed Snake’s movements. However, at that time, my mother was too sick. Even so, it didn’t take long. However, I have done some research over the years. If the Banxia is the nemesis of the Nine-Tailed Snake, then the Banxia will definitely have an effect on the Suoyin Flower Tears. After all, the formation of the Suoyin Flower Tears is closely related to the Nine-Tailed Snake. I just don’t know why the prescription passed down back then didn’t contain the medicine Banxia.”
“So this is also what I’m confused about. And this Banxia, Professor, do you know what it is?”
