The servants in the outer courtyard never went inside the hanging flower gate unless there was an emergency. Qiuju looked up and saw Shuanzi's hesitant expression.

"Shuanzi, is something wrong?"

Shuanzi pointed to the next room, "Young Master Nangong is back, and he seems quite drunk. I was just wondering if the cooks are resting and if I could help make a hangover soup."

"It's okay, I'll cook it."

After Qiuju finished speaking to Shuanzi, she turned around and walked quickly towards the inner courtyard.

There were no herbs in the kitchen for making hangover soup, so she had to go back to Xingyue Courtyard to get them.

In the dormitory.

Jiang Shuyue watched Xue'er finish her midnight snack before getting up to go into her spatial dimension to bathe and go to sleep.

Hearing hurried footsteps outside the door, Jiang Shuyue sat down again.

The beaded curtain rustled, and Qiuju walked in.

Jiang Shuyue teased, "Why are you back again? Didn't I tell you to go back and rest? If you want to hold the baby as soon as possible, don't keep thinking about my place tonight."

"Miss, I'm not in a hurry to have a child," Qiuju said coquettishly, stamping her foot.

"That's right, the two of you should enjoy your time together first, and it's not too late to get pregnant next year."

Seeing that her mistress was joking with her in a serious manner, Qiuju quickly said, "Shuanzi said that Young Master Nangong got drunk tonight, so I came to get some herbs to make a bowl of hangover soup and send it over."

Jiang Shuyue stood up abruptly, walked to the wooden cabinet containing the medicinal herbs, opened the drawer, quickly grabbed a few herbs, wrapped them up, and handed them to Qiuju.

He then casually grabbed an earthenware pot and said, "Come with me to the next house."

The master and servant went to the next room. Qiuju took the earthenware pot to the kitchen, while the servant led Jiang Shuyue straight to the bedroom.

"Young master, please don't take it off, you'll catch a cold."

Hearing the voices inside, Jiang Shuyue immediately stopped in her tracks.
