After returning home and having dinner, Fang Zheng opened the Chinese medicine bag and prepared to boil the medicine. Inside was the prescription and the method of boiling the medicine, which should have been written on a piece of paper by Jiang Shunying herself.

He carefully checked the prescription and the medicinal materials, looked up the ingredients of various medicines in the book, and after confirming that there were no side effects on pregnant women, he poured the medicine into the porcelain jar. At this time, he found a few lines of words on the back of the prescription, which had nothing to do with decocting medicine:

All the children are doing it, all the children are doing it,

I want to talk but I have no words to listen to the flowing water.

Out of sight, half gone.

Fang Zheng looked at it and didn't quite understand. After adding water to the porcelain jar, he took the note and went to the study to find Ruan Xiaojing.

Ruan Xiaojing turned on the computer and was preparing materials for tomorrow's meeting.

Fang Zheng handed the note to Ruan Xiaojing, "Girl, take a look at what this means."

Ruan Xiaojing took the note, looked at it and said, "This should be a riddle. Why is this written at the end of the prescription? Does it have any special meaning?"

Fang Zheng sat down next to Ruan Xiaojing, "Then let's guess riddles."

Ruan Xiaojing took a pen and drew on the paper, muttering: "If you want to speak, you have to listen to the flowing water. Without words, only the right side is left. Add water, and this is the word 'live'."

Fang Zheng pondered for a long time and said, "The last word should be '着'."

"The first one is 'good.'" Ruan Xiaojing wrote down several words on the paper: "Live well."

The two were stunned.

Ruan Xiaojing murmured: "Why do you write this at the end?"

"Could it be..." Fang Zheng excitedly grabbed Ruan Xiaojing's hand, "Could it be that she knows something?"

Ruan Xiaojing shook her head in disbelief: "Impossible, how could she know? No one knows we went to the courtyard."

"Then why did she write this?" Fang Zheng said.

Ruan Xiaojing smelled the smell of medicine coming from the kitchen, and quickly covered her nose and shouted: "Fang Zheng - medicine in the kitchen -"

Fang Zheng ran to the kitchen. Fortunately, the pot had just started to boil. He turned down the fire according to Jiang Shunying's instructions on the prescription and set a fifteen-minute timer on his phone.

Jiang Shunying's note disturbed him. Worried that Ruan Xiaojing couldn't stand the taste of the Chinese medicine, he closed the kitchen door and walked into the study again. Looking at Ruan Xiaojing who was still wiping her mouth with a tissue, he asked worriedly, "I wonder if you can drink the Chinese medicine later?"

Ruan Xiaojing said: "You must be able to drink it, that's your mother's intention."

Fang Zheng sat in front of Ruan Xiaojing, looked at her seriously and said, "If my mother knew my identity, she would think this would be the best situation, so she left a note for me."

Ruan Xiaojing wiped her lips and asked, "Who told her your identity?"

Fang Zheng thought of Song Simiao whom Du Qingqing mentioned. He fully understood his situation. If he told his mother, what would be his purpose?

He suddenly remembered a lot of things, including the garden house and the golden lock in his bedroom at his aunt's house.

"Xiaojing, I'll take you to see an old house someday," Fang Zheng said.

"What old house?" Ruan Xiaojing asked.

"Uncle He gave me the key and property title earlier, saying it was a house passed down from the Zhang family. It's a western-style house with a garden, located in the old street. The old street is under planning, and it will probably be demolished soon."

Ruan Xiaojing laughed, "Why haven't I heard you mention this before? Are you planning to use the relocation money to find someone to live with?"

Fang Zheng looked at her and said, "Seeing you and my mother, you are both so safe and healthy by my side. Suddenly I don't want to do anything. I feel so happy just being with you."

Ruan Xiaojing took Fang Zheng's hand and said, "The matter between Song Siyao and your family——"

Fang Zheng shook his head. "To my family, Song Siyao may be a demon, but to the whole society, he has contributed so many medicines, saved many people, and saved many families. Tell me, is he a good person or a bad person? How do you judge him?"
