Ruling the Historical Romance Novel as the Female Supporting Character-Chapter 156: Preparing to Go to Yun Province

"Great!" Gao Huabin eagerly walked up to the tree, wrapping his arms around it and attempting to pull it up. He exerted some force but realized that he needed even less strength than he had initially anticipated. He didn’t manage to control it, stepping back two paces and unintentionally bringing the tree down with him. Luckily, his quick reaction prevented the tree from falling on people in the yard.

Su Yijia fetched a hatchet from a nearby bamboo basket and handed it to Gao Huabin. He split the tree into three sections, cutting off the larger branches, and placed them in a corner of the yard to clean up the next day.

"How about now? Does it feel more real?" Su Yijia asked with a smile, seeing his dazed expression.

Gao Huabin looked at her blankly, then nodded absentmindedly.

This was the Great Strength Pill? He initially assumed it would just enhance strength, maybe even double the usual power. But this strength seemed completely supernatural, far beyond what a regular person would have. How could a medicine reach such a level? Despite racking his brain, he couldn’t figure out the underlying principles. But the evidence was right in front of him, forcing him to believe.

Su Yijia didn’t explain further. Instead, she turned to Xia Weiguo, who was equally astounded.

"Uncle Xia, Gao and I took the pills. Tomorrow, you can take us to a trusted hospital for a check-up to see if our physical conditions have changed. Then, after a few more checks to confirm there are no side effects, you, Kaize, Ke, Zhu, and my grandparents can take it too."

She had planned ahead to give the first batch of the Great Strength Pill to the people who genuinely cared for her. This, however, startled Granny Lin and Grandpa Lin.

"Do we need to take it? We’re both old, almost halfway to the grave. No need for us to take such good stuff. Let’s leave it to you youngsters. It’ll only help if you take it," Grandpa Lin solemnly refused.

But Su Yijia furrowed her beautiful and delicate brows, looking at them seriously. "I made the medicine, I earned the money to buy the ingredients, and you are my grandparents. Who says you don’t need to take it? You’re in your sixties; you could easily live another twenty or thirty years. You’ll not only see my and Kaize’s children born but also our grandchildren. After taking the pill, no one would dare to bully you, and when Kaize and I are not at home, out for work, we can be a bit more relaxed, right?"

Grandma Lin still felt a bit distressed, but Grandpa Lin nodded in agreement. "Wife, let’s go along with Yijia’s intention. We’re of an age where we can’t help the kids much, but at least we shouldn’t be a cause of worry for them while they are out working."

"Then we’ll take it," Grandma Lin nodded in agreement, looking at Su Yijia with a loving smile. "We won’t wait for your health test reports; we’ll take it straight away."

"No, you can’t. We need to wait for the health test reports to come out in a couple of days. I have to review your conditions and ensure your body is in good shape before taking it. The potency of this medicine is strong; we need to be careful when administering it," Su Yijia refused promptly.

Just from their appearances, she could tell there might be some chronic illnesses in their bodies. They would need delicate care and precise types and dosages of medication. She wouldn’t casually experiment on her own grandparents’ health.

"Then we’ll listen to you," Grandpa and Grandma Lin looked at Su Yijia with even more affection. Their Yijia was indeed a thoughtful and filial child.

Xia Weiguo was planning to take the medicine directly. However, considering the position he was in, he was wary of causing any trouble to Yijia. So he decided to be cautious and not trouble her.

"I’ll take it." Qin Kaize blinked, showing firm determination. He had immense trust in his little wife. Besides, if even Gao Huabin had taken it, he couldn’t possibly stay behind.

"But you can’t, either. We’re having a wedding in three days. Two days after that, it’s Su Xinyue and Qin Mingcheng’s. Five days later, I’m going to Yun Province to gather the detoxification pills’ ingredients. That’s potent medicine. You can’t take any risks by consuming random substances. They might have adverse interactions with each other," Su Yijia sighed, squatting down to have a direct conversation with Qin Kaize.

"I know you trust me, but we can’t play with our health. Your most crucial task now is to eat well, drink well, and keep yourself healthy, to prepare for the upcoming detoxification pills."

The concept of the detoxification pill sounded intimidating, making her even more cautious.

"I’ll accompany you guys to Yun Province," unexpectedly, Xia Weiguo spoke up.

Su Yijia was momentarily surprised. She hadn’t expected such a high-ranking officer to take time out for this. But on second thought, considering Xia Weiguo’s emphasis on Qin Kaize, he wouldn’t feel reassured without keeping an eye on such a potent medicine himself.

"From what I heard, the weather in Yun Province is quite mild throughout the year. As there’s not much time left, we should prepare our outerwear. Since Xia Weiguo is also going, Qin Kaize should come along as well, right? Let’s buy a camera, consider it a trip. Grandpa and grandma, you should come with us," Su Yijia suggested.

Logically speaking, such a dangerous place wasn’t suitable for Qin Kaize or her grandparents. But Qin Kaize would never agree to let her go to such a distant place with someone else. Leaving her grandparents behind would make them feel a bit disheartened, and she wasn’t at ease doing that either.

Twenty years ago, the one responsible for her family’s misery, Yin Linjiang, was still under investigation. The investigation would conclude half a month after the wedding, with orders to remove the stigmatizing labels. A large number of people would return to their hometowns and resume their work. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

In such a situation, desperate actions might be taken by those who were involved in the past, and she wasn’t certain how Yin Linjiang might react. But if he knew about her grandparents returning, he certainly wouldn’t easily let it pass. So, it was better to bring everyone along. Even if it was a bit troublesome, she could at least keep an eye on them every day, preventing any untoward incidents.

"Alright, we’ll go with you to explore our motherland’s beautiful landscapes," Grandpa Lin nodded with a smile. He knew his granddaughter was sensible and naturally followed her lead.
