Jiang Zhongxing stared at her for a while, then casually picked up an empty tea bowl from the table, "I’ll fetch the water myself."
He quickly brought a bucket of water back.
Then he pricked his middle finger and let a drop of blood fall, followed by pricking Jiang Han’s middle finger.
Jiang Han felt a bit uncertain at this mont. He nervously watched the tea bowl and saw the two drops of blood slowly rge together.
He jumped up, "I told you, I’m truly my father’s—ouch—"
In his excitent, he opened his mouth a bit wide and cried out in pain.
Jiang Zhongxing stared at Aunt Su, "Then what was with the previous bowl of water?"
Aunt Su replied sorrowfully, "Even I don’t know. Maybe soone in this household dislikes my son and ."
Jiang Zhongxing sneered, "Really?"
"But that bowl of water was originally intended for and Jiang You to verify our blood."
Nanny Yuan looked uneasy. She had personally brought the bowl and ladled the water, yet she couldn’t prove her innocence now.
The Princess looked at Nanny Yuan, soone who had been with her for decades and whom she trusted absolutely. She figured Nanny Yuan had been taken advantage of at so point, "Take so people and apprehend all the kitchen servants."
Lady Wu sighed, knowing the Princess wanted to clear this matter but considering today was New Year’s Eve.
People in the room were waiting to eat, and what would happen if they apprehended the staff?
Where could they find cooks now? Would they still eat?
Lady Wu stood up, "Mother, it’s New Year today. Perhaps we should let this go. It was my lack of managent in this household."
The Princess waved her hand, "It’s not your fault. You just returned a few days ago, and there are many troubleso elents in this household that need to be dealt with slowly."
Jiang Zhongxing knew they couldn’t find much at this mont. With such a crowd in the kitchen, any tampering could happen in an instant.
He cast a sinister glance at Aunt Su.
Aunt Su quickly signaled Jiang Zhongxing’s eldest cousin’s wife, who chuckled, "The eldest young master’s blood hasn’t been verified yet!"
As she spoke, she picked up a tea bowl from the table, ladled a bowl of water Jiang Zhongxing had just brought in from the bucket, and placed it on the table.
Jiang Zhongxing looked at her with so dissatisfaction; this cousin’s wife was a bit overly active today.
Then Yun Jiao suddenly stood up, walked to the table, picked up the bowl of water, sniffed it lightly, and said, "This water contains blood coagulation grass powder."
Everyone looked at her.
Jiang Zhongxing raised an eyebrow, "Doctor Gu, what effect does the blood coagulation grass powder have?"
Yun Jiao replied flatly, "With this added to the water, the blood droplets won’t disperse but will assu a relatively solid state, so they won’t rge."
"Actually, this thod of testing familial blood is unreliable; everyone’s blood can actually rge."
"The previous bowl of water should also contain blood coagulation grass powder."
Jiang Youzhi looked at Yun Jiao, a smile playing on his lips.
Jiao Jiao was his lucky star; once again, she had dissolved a crisis for him with her vast knowledge.
Aunt Su nearly gritted her silver teeth to pieces.
Upon hearing Xing Yu ntion that Yun Jiao was a doctor, Aunt Su had an inkling of concern, but she hadn’t anticipated that Yun Jiao would recognize such obscure herbs. That wretched girl, if not for her, it would have happened today!
Jiang Zhongxing’s eldest cousin’s wife suddenly grew flustered, "Why are you all looking at ? Are you accusing of tampering?"
"How unjust! I had good intentions, hoping the eldest young master wouldn’t be doubted."
Jiang Zhongxing’s eldest cousin chided, "You’re always ddling. When will you stop being so nosy?"
