"This..."

The Old Madam Ding hesitated for a moment and didn’t continue.

If someone else had asked this question, she could easily answer it, but those previous medicines were used to extend Ding Xu’s life, and she didn’t want to bring up past issues in front of him.

"Mother, Sixth Uncle sending someone for the medicine for no reason is not a small matter, is it?" Ding Zhuzui sat next to the Old Madam and gently reminded her.

He remembered what Rong’er and Xu’er said in the study before, and their Ding Family needed to be cautious.

But for Sixth Uncle to suddenly request the medicines they painstakingly obtained is not something trifling. If roles were reversed, would Sixth Uncle willingly give away his hard-earned medicines to others?

It’s something that can be easily thought of, but Sixth Uncle seems to ignore that and just sent someone to ask for it?

"What has happened to Sixth Uncle, and why does he need to send someone to ask for the medicine? And which ingredients does he want?" he asked.

"Which other medicines? It’s just those few rare ones we found before. He dares to think big!" The Old Madam pouted displeasingly.

"Those medicines were originally sought for Xu’er; even if they’re not needed now, we can’t just give them away." Ding Zhuzui immediately replied.

It’s not that simple, is it? He just comes and asks for the medicine as if the medicines at home were gathered specifically for Sixth Uncle. Based on what?

"He imagines things quite beautifully," Ding Rong said with a sarcastic smile.

She knew about those few medicines, and she had also seen the prescription Lin Caisang developed, which included those medicines. Unexpectedly, Grandpa Six had come to ask for them.

It seems their Ding Family is indeed in a mess.

"Father, Grandmother, since those medicines were sought for me, why don’t you let me take them since I’m back today?" Ding Xu directly said.

Leaving those medicines at home for any longer might lead to unforeseen troubles.

Since Grandpa Six dared to ask, he must have someone behind pushing him. Expecting him to stop now is impossible.

If he can’t openly obtain them, he might act secretly. Besides, Grandpa Six came from the branch family; who knows how many people he’s left in the Ding Family?

"This..."

Ding Zhuzui did not expect Ding Xu to say this.

These medicines are of no use to Ding Xu now anyway. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

Suddenly, he thought of a possibility. Could it be that someone urgently needs these medicines, which is why Sixth Ding is being instructed to take them away?

If that’s the case, then he must consider whether this Sixth Uncle should stay in Sky City.

Anyone who poses a threat to the Ding Family or the City Lord’s Mansion, regardless of their closeness, he would rather make a mistake than let one go.

"Xu’er, why do you want to take those medicines? Is there any use for them?" The Old Madam had thought of this, and her face became even gloomier.

Of course, she was just asking, and it didn’t matter if she didn’t get an answer. After all, it’s their grandson, and if he wants to take things from home, isn’t that what he should do?

But Sixth Ding... this is courting death, trying to scheme against them. She would absolutely not let it pass.
