Bab 41: Sacrifices

"Maybe your grandfather didn't know that Snake Swallowing Stone can cure scorpion poison..." Wang Hongxia ventured uncertainly.

Ding Yao waved her small hands fiercely as she shouted, "Shut up! You have no right to belittle my grandfather's skill in medicine! My grandfather would be rolling in his grave if he heard you spouting such nonsense!"

Wang Hongxia choked. Everyone was too embarrassed to refute Ding Yao. Third Uncle and Fourth Uncle Ding lowered their heads in guilt. How could they not have had faith in Ding Yao?

Ding Yao wagged her finger imposingly and said, "One should listen to reason and not close themselves or risk becoming narrow-minded and obtuse. Even if this matter were brought up to the police, I would have nothing to fear. The Snake Swallowing Stone is in my possession. If you want to take it from me, you are more than welcome to try!"
