Chapter 141 Spiritual Spring

At night, Li Wei would stay up late to study.

Jiang Wanying used buckets to transport the spiritual spring water to the large bathtub. Soon, the small room was filled with hot smoke. She wiped the sweat from her forehead with satisfaction and planned to trick Xu Hongping over.

At this time, Xu Hongping was sewing her wedding dress in her room.

Jiang Wanying gently opened the door and poked her head out, "Aunt, come with me!"

"What's wrong?"

Xu Hongping put down the needle and thread in her hands, stood up and opened the door.

Jiang Wanying took her hand and walked out.

Jiang Dongfang had originally set aside a small room specifically for her to bathe in, while everyone else in the family used a basin of water to wash themselves in. The original owner wasn't selfish, though; she had invited Xu Hongping to use the room, but Xu Hongping thought boiling water was too much trouble and a waste of firewood, so she never used it.

"You're planning on taking a bath!"

Jiang Wanying gently pushed Xu Hongping's back and said, "It's not me. I prepared this especially for you!"

Xu Hongping was flattered and said with a smile, "No wonder I heard you fiddling with something in the kitchen. Turns out you were boiling water! I appreciate your kindness, but I just took a bath yesterday, so you can soak yourself."

Jiang Wanying shook her arm and said coquettishly, "It doesn't matter if you've already taken a bath. I asked my uncle, and he said that taking more hot baths is good for your health."

"If it's good for you, you should soak it well!" Xu Hongping still refused.

Jiang Wanying whispered in her ear, "To tell you the truth, this isn't just hot water; it contains medicinal herbs. I've been asking around in the city and they say it's effective for treating uterine cold. Why don't you try it?"

Xu Hongping's pupils shrank slightly. She had been depressed because of this for a while. She thought that as time went by, she would get over it. But when Jiang Wanying mentioned this again, she couldn't help but feel a layer of mist in her eyes.

"You...you child..."

Jiang Wanying took over and undressed her. "Whether it's useful or not is another matter. Just think of it as a way for me to honor you, okay?"

Xu Hongping resisted the urge to cry and gently touched Jiang Wanying's head. In fact, what does it matter whether she has her own child or not?

Yingying was the girl she raised by herself, and she was no different from her own daughter.

Not only her, but also Huaichuan, they were all children she raised and grew up with. With both a son and a daughter, what else could she be dissatisfied with?

Xu Hongping felt somewhat relieved, and thinking that she would not let Jiang Wanying down, she took off her clothes and went into the bath to soak.

After Jiang Wanying helped her hang up the clothes, she pointed outside with her little hand. "It'll take at least half an hour to soak. I'll come in and add some hot water for you. Just soak slowly, relax, think about happy things, and relax."

Xu Hongping didn't hold much hope at first that it could cure her uterine coldness, but after soaking in it for a few hours, she felt a warmth flowing through her lower abdomen.

Is it really useful?

After Jiang Wanying came out of the house, she went back to her own room.

Li Wei was still doing her homework when Jiang Wanying came over and lit another candle for her, making the room brighter and not hurting her eyes too much.

"Yingying, what were you doing outside just now?"

Li Wei put down the pen in her hand and rubbed her waist, which had been sitting for a long time. "I see you running in and out all the time."

"I'm here to help my aunt boil water for a bath."
