Her husband left for the frontier, and Rong Linlang diligently served her in-laws for five years. In the end, her husband faked his death to become a son-in-law in a powerful family, while her in-l...
The six people stayed on the mountain for half a day and returned to the villa when it was almost dark.
Seeing that they were still talking excitedly, Song called Linlang over and went to the study. She smiled and said to Hu Shan, "I wonder what good things they found in the mountains. Look how happy they are."
"They must have found some treasure, so they called Sister Linlang over. It must be some precious medicinal herb." Hu Shan guessed.
"Let them go. They probably found some wild animals or medicinal herbs." Song said, "Are you hungry? Do you want to eat something to fill your stomach?"
"I talked so much with Sister Linlang this afternoon and ate so much, I'm not hungry at all."
Hu Shan told Song, "I didn't expect Sister Linlang to be so lively and cheerful after going through so much. I really admire her."
"You are also very brave. You faced the disease bravely and were not overwhelmed at all."
Song held Hu Shan's hand distressedly, "Linlang said that you can walk around more often, but not do strenuous exercise. She will control your condition and make you get better slowly."
"Your illness has been with you since your mother's womb. It will take time to recover. Don't be anxious."
"Ma'am, I understand. I'm not in a hurry."
No one knew how much Hu Shan longed for the outside world. She wanted to go shopping, attend flower viewing and tea parties, learn horse riding, and go to girls' school with her sisters like ordinary women.
She didn't want to be trapped in that small world, where she had to drink endless medicine every day and couldn't breathe after walking a few steps. When she fell in love with her handsome, tall and handsome brother-in-law, she wanted to live longer, even if she couldn't be with him, just to see him a few more times would be enough.
Unexpectedly, her brother-in-law liked her. After discussing with his parents and brother and sister-in-law during the Mid-Autumn Festival, he brought her out. After seeing the scenery outside, she felt that the wind was more wonderful than the yard.
Hu Shan was very confident, "Madam, I will definitely get better."
Song noticed that she was in better and better spirits since leaving the capital, and the smile on her face never disappeared. She knew that she was really happy.
Linlang said that her condition could be controlled and she would get better slowly. Although the disease could not be eradicated, as long as things were developing in a good direction, the Song family would be happy for Hu Shan.
On the other side, Su Nanting ordered the secret guards to surround the study and no outsiders were allowed to enter.
After closing the doors and windows of the study, Su Nanting could no longer contain his excitement. "Linlang, I heard from Amu that you researched this thing. It's amazing, so powerful. After witnessing its power, I can almost see the people of our Jing Dynasty standing up with their heads held high."
"This thing is too important to be known to anyone other than the seven of us." Su Nanting asked in a low voice, "I just wonder if Linlang invented it herself, or if her master taught her?"
Linlang would definitely not say that she invented it herself. "Of course, my master taught me this. He accidentally discovered it during a medicine-making process and wrote it down. Unfortunately, my master died of a sudden illness and didn't have time to realize its effectiveness."
"Last time I heard Ah Mu talking about Northern Qi's thunder bombs, I thought this thing was very similar to the thunder bombs, so I decided to give it a try. Unexpectedly, it worked."
Linlang sighed, "Maybe God couldn't stand seeing Northern Qi bullying us like this, so he gave us a chance to fight back. Don't worry, father, no one knows about this except us."
"That's good." Su Nanting nodded. After thinking about it, it made sense. If anyone had this secret recipe, they would have gone to Beijing to present it to the emperor and seek wealth and glory. They would not have waited until now.
Su Nanting asked the children to sit down. "This secret recipe cannot be revealed to anyone else. It can only be given directly to the emperor. Those princes are not easy to deal with. They will do anything for the throne. They might even collude with Northern Qi."
"Then father, please return to the capital and find a chance to show the things to the emperor." Su Jinrui said, "We will wait here. If possible, we can buy the mountain behind."
Su Nanting must return to Beijing as soon as possible. Such a precious thing must be made known to the emperor. He can imagine how happy the emperor will be when he sees this.
Bring something back, but don’t bring the recipe. Find a place to blow one up and let the emperor feel its power.
To make a thunder bomb, a lot of silver is needed. They can't just provide the labor and money at the same time, the emperor has to pay for it.
Su Nanting wanted to leave right now, but he had just arrived in Luer Town and was in a hurry to go back. As soon as he got back, he went to see the emperor. Others would definitely guess that he had something important to discuss with the emperor.
After all, he was well-known in the capital for doting on his wife. It was not normal for him to leave his beloved wife and run back to the capital.
If he caught other people's attention, they would investigate him and he would be easily exposed. He could only go back if there was something going on at home.
The five of them, father and son, thought of one person, the old lady.
Linlang and Amu exchanged a glance. Their calculating eyes were too obvious. Who were they plotting against? The old lady?
Su Jinnian said, "Gu Yuanfang has been asking Aunt Yao to inquire about the Fourth Prince's hobbies and whereabouts, hoping to have a beautiful encounter with him. Every Mid-Autumn Festival, the Fourth Prince would accompany his mother to Xiangguo Temple to stay for a few days, eating vegetarian food and chanting Buddhist scriptures, praying for the Emperor, Empress, and the people of Jing Dynasty."
I understand. Su Nanting said, "Let someone release Gu Yuanfang. The old lady wants to go to Xiangguo Temple to burn incense, and she needs someone to accompany her."
Su Jinnian snapped his fingers and said, "Son, send someone to do it immediately."
Su Nanting instructed his three sons, "Arrange someone to secretly purchase these materials and send them all to the cave. Be sure to send someone to strictly guard it and don't let the people below the mountain find out."
Not wanting people to get close to that place, Linlang said, "Just say there's a tiger over there. If you create some scary supernatural events, no one will dare to go near that place."
Linlang had thought about this before, but she didn't have enough manpower. Now that there are so many experts, it can be implemented.
Su Jinyao was interested in this. "Leave it to me, sister. I will definitely take care of it for you."
After assigning tasks, Su Nanting said to Linlang, "For now, just rest assured and take care of your pregnancy in the other hospital, accompany your mother, and check on Shanshan's illness. Leave the rest to us, don't worry."
"I understand, father."
The next day everyone was busy. Although Su Nanting was eager to go home, he pretended to be calm, accompanied Song, played chess with Amu, and practiced a few moves with Moer to pass the time.
Linlang began to prescribe medicine for Hu Shan. Some herbs were not available in the town, so Su Jinrui rushed to the county town to buy them.
In addition to prescribing the right medicine, it is equally important to maintain a good mood. Hu Shan's emotions cannot fluctuate greatly, so Linlang specially prepared some fast-acting heart-saving pills for her in case of emergency.
Hu Shan was interested in everything outside. Linlang killed small insects and fed them to the ants. She could see the end of it by watching the ants transport the food.
Linlang took her to pick dates. Moer went up and hit them with a wooden stick, and they picked them up from below. Occasionally, they were hit on the head by falling dates, and they looked up and smiled foolishly.
The two maids following Hu Shan were extremely happy to see that their young lady's face was becoming more and more rosy and she was not ill.
Mrs. Xiao is indeed a miracle doctor, the young lady’s illness can be cured.
