Yu Jinglan was reading behind Yu Ansheng when she heard someone approaching. She quickly covered her face with the book and peeked out.

Wow! Shen Yu is already a mother of two? And she still has such a tall and slender figure, no wonder Prince Jing insisted on marrying her.

She smiled mischievously, thinking to herself that she was determined to give Chen Yu a good beating today.

She wasn't greedy; it's just that her younger brother needed medication regularly, and her father's meager salary only allowed him to buy inexpensive medicine. If she could earn more money, her brother could afford more expensive medicine.

She put down her book, put on her black veiled hat, stood up, and bowed to Chen Yu, saying:

【Madam, you want to buy flower tea? Your complexion looks a bit pale; some nourishing flower tea would be suitable. This is a family recipe passed down through generations. Please take a look.】

Shen Yu did not take the prescription; she simply stared at Yu Ansheng without moving.

Yu Ansheng had already noticed, and remained motionless with her eyes lowered, her cheeks already flushed red, but fortunately, her veil covered them.

At this moment, Yu Jinglan stomped hard on Yu Ansheng's foot, urging him to sell the flower tea. Helpless, he stammered, "Miss, would you like to buy... flower tea?"

Chen Yu snapped out of her daze, took the prescription, glanced at it, and immediately became interested.

Peony and chrysanthemum tea? Although she had lost her memory, she immediately realized the tea's exquisite qualities:

Peony flowers have the effects of clearing heat and cooling blood, promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis. Chrysanthemums, on the other hand, dispel wind and clear heat, soothe the liver and improve eyesight, and clear heat and detoxify. When steeped together, they not only complement each other but can also treat colds, blurred vision, heatstroke, etc.

Rose and jasmine tea? It's said to regulate qi, improve blood circulation, and regulate menstruation...

She read through all the recipes, and she knew the wonderful combinations in each one.

She was quite puzzled and handed the prescription to Yu Jinglan, saying, "I can prepare these myself. What you're selling is just some medical common sense. Does your household have anyone studying medicine?"

Yu Jinglan nodded, both afraid of revealing her secret and worried that Chen Yu wouldn't buy the flower tea. So, she pointed at Yu Ansheng and choked up with tears.

"Sister, this is my attendant... Yu Ansheng. We were on our way to the capital for the imperial examinations when we encountered bandits. They not only robbed me of my money but also broke Ansheng's leg. So, I was thinking of selling some flower tea to help Ansheng get a doctor..."

Shen Yu was astonished. No wonder Yu Ansheng was walking with a limp last night.

She hurriedly reached for her purse, only to find it empty; the family's finances were once again in Yanran's hands.

However, looking at Yu Ansheng's thin figure, her heart ached. If she didn't help, she was afraid she would be unable to eat or sleep.

Normally, she had sold all her jewelry to buy food and toys for her two children, leaving only the red jade hairpin on her head. This hairpin was a gift from the Empress and could not be sold!

She looked at An'er and Ping'er, took off the little fish pendants from their necks, and handed them to Yu Jinglan:

This is a fine white jade fish pendant. I don't have any money on me, so I'd be grateful if you could pawn it and use it to get a doctor for An Sheng.

Upon hearing this, Bailu and Heiya quickly stepped forward to dissuade her: "Young lady, don't be fooled!"

【Girl, quickly get your jade pendant back.】

Yu Jinglan quickly tucked the pendant into his sleeve and bowed to Chen Yu in gratitude: "My lady is truly a kind person. On behalf of An Sheng, I thank you for your generosity."

After saying this, Yu Jinglan neatly wrapped the flower tea in a bundle, grabbed Yu Ansheng, and hurriedly left.

Watching Yu Ansheng's limping figure, Shen Yu was still uneasy. She ordered Hei Ya to take the two children for a walk, while she secretly followed Yu Ansheng with Bai Lu.

Half an hour later.

Shen Yu peered through the crack in the door and saw Yu Ansheng lying on the stone table, casually tossing away his veil.

[Hey! Yu Ansheng, I advise you to use your brain a little. The Prince Jing's mansion forbids us from selling flower tea, so just wear a veiled hat when you sell flower tea, that way no one will recognize you.]

As Yu Jinglan spoke, she took off her veil and tossed it to Yu Ansheng. She sat on the stone bench, took out the small fish pendant, examined it closely, and exclaimed in amazement:

[It truly is top-quality white jade. No wonder they're a wealthy family; they're incredibly generous...]

Shen Yu's eyes widened in anger. It turned out that the scholar in blue was the one who had stopped her last night.

She suppressed her anger, thinking that as long as the scholar in blue took Yu Ansheng to see a doctor about his leg, the matter would be over.

To everyone's surprise, the scholar in blue robes tucked the small fish pendant into his sleeve, stood up, and said:

[Yu Ansheng, you should sell your flower tea at a different location later, like Songgui Street. That's where all the wealthy and powerful live; see if you can run into another sucker like Prince Jing.]

Where did Jingtao go?

I went to the pawnshop and pawned this jade pendant.

Upon hearing this, Yu Ansheng sat up abruptly, glaring at Yu Jinglan, and said, "I cannot accept this! Please... young master, return the pendant to Miss Chenyu."

Why?

[Because you've been a fraud, I don't care if you deceived Prince Jing, but you can't deceive Miss Chenyu.]

Why can't we lie to her? She's a favorite of the Empress, and she's got plenty of money.

She's my savior! If it weren't for her treating my illness, I would have died on the street long ago.

Yu Jinglan, with his nostrils flared, glared with eyes the size of peanuts, pointing at Yu Ansheng and scolding him:

Yu Ansheng! Don't forget, you were beaten black and blue by slave traders, your body was rotting. If it weren't for my father's kindness in buying you and spending money to treat your illness, you would probably have been eaten by maggots long ago.

You are a servant of the Yu family, and you must obey my orders. Do you intend to murder your master?

Yu Ansheng quickly slid off the stone table and knelt on the ground: "Ansheng would never kill her master. If you, young master, do not return the pendant to Miss Chenyu, Ansheng would rather die."
