The entire village shakes their heads at Zhuang Qingning - an orphaned girl who, after recovering from illness, stubbornly registers as a female household head instead of living with her uncle.

Chapter 453 The Happiness of Children

Chapter 453: The Joy of Children

"It should be the beginning of next month at the latest."

You can come back at the end of the month and the beginning of next month, which is the beginning of winter at the latest.

Well, it’s not too late.

Zhuang Qingning nodded thoughtfully.

"Why do you suddenly ask this, sister?" Zhuang Qingsui asked in surprise.

"Nothing, I just miss Lord Chu's life-saving grace. I thought that if Lord Chu comes back, I could send him some cakes and other food, which would be a good thing for me."

Be grateful and repay favors. Although the Chu family seems to have everything they need, that is their business. As for their family, they must show what they should show.

Although Zhuang Qingsui was young, she understood this truth and nodded, "Sister is right."

"But since you're talking about cakes, can you make some for me too?"

Zhuang Qingsui said with a giggle, "The lotus crisps that my sister made last time were delicious. Jin Zhou missed them a lot too. Can you make them for us tomorrow?"

"Okay." Zhuang Qingning dragged out the last line of the tone and tapped Zhuang Qingsui's forehead, "I'll make it for you tomorrow."

"But I have to go to the county town again tomorrow, so I'm afraid I have to go there very early in the morning. I'll get up early and prepare it, and you can share it with me when the time comes."

"Sister, are you going to the county again?"

"Well, there are some things that may take me two days to do." Zhuang Qingning smiled and patted Zhuang Qingsui's head. "Go quickly and put the things away. I'll make you your favorite braised chicken wings in the evening."

Zhuang Qingsui, who was originally a little disappointed because Zhuang Qingning had to go to the county town to work again tomorrow, was immediately overjoyed when he heard about the braised chicken wings. He nodded excitedly and went to pack up.

Children's joy is so simple.

Zhuang Qingning smiled and went to clean up and prepare dinner.

The next day, Zhuang Qingning got up early and made the lotus cakes that Zhuang Qingsui wanted.

The fried lotus crisps are layered and look like blooming lotus flowers, which is very beautiful, hence the name lotus crisps.

Moreover, this lotus crispy cake is crispy and delicious. You will never get tired of it even if you eat it for a long time. It has the fragrance of lotus and you will never get tired of smelling it.

Zhuang Qingning left enough lotus cakes for Zhuang Qingsui and others, and wrapped up the rest, planning to bring them to Mrs. Wen when he went to the county town today.

Yesterday, we had agreed to go to Zhuang Yutian's house for lunch at noon and visit Mrs. Wen, but because of the sudden situation with Cheng Ruize and Zhuang Wencheng yesterday, Zhuang Qingning did not have time to go.

Thinking that Zhuang Yutian must have told Wen about this yesterday, but she broke her promise, even if there was a reason, the arrogant old lady would probably roll her eyes to the sky.

Zhuang Qingning felt that the best way was to shut her up with delicious food first, so that she would not say anything about her.

After packing everything, Zhuang Qingning went out and rushed all the way to the county town to meet Cheng Ruize.

Fang Hou knew that Zhuang Qingning had arrived and hurriedly led her into the yard.

"Is Manager Cheng feeling better?" Zhuang Qingning asked.

"Much better."

Fang Hou was very happy when he mentioned this, but he didn't dare to show too much. He just lowered his voice and said, "After Manager Zhuang left yesterday, my young master woke up and said that although he still felt a little sore and weak, his mind felt much clearer."

"You ate a lot for lunch and dinner yesterday, and you seem to have a good appetite. You also took the pills on time, and swallowed them in one gulp according to the instructions of Shopkeeper Zhuang."

"The young master slept very soundly last night. When he woke up in the morning, he was still complaining about being hungry. He ate half a bowl of glutinous rice porridge and half a chopped green onion pancake, complaining that it was not enough. But he was taking medicine now, so we didn't dare let him eat anything too greasy. We only let him eat half a bowl of egg custard."

"I have already taken the morning medicine, and I seem to be in good spirits. The young master also said that the aches and pains in his body have been alleviated by a lot."

"But don't worry, Manager Zhuang. Only I and another personal servant know about this. Doctor Qin only checked my pulse last night and I didn't ask him to see me again. No one else should know about this."

"Also, I have arranged for everyone in the courtyard to do only chores and not to get close to the young master. I have also told the public that the young master is still seriously ill, and I have also pretended to send someone to the capital to inform the master and the mistress. I think they will not be suspicious."

Zhuang Qingning nodded approvingly, "Excellent work."

The previous time I met Fang Hou, I had only seen him in Cheng Ji's shop selling preserved eggs. At that time, I felt that this clerk seemed to be very perceptive, and he was also active in his work and speech. Now, seeing that Fang Hou arranged everything very properly, I admired him even more.

"Manager Zhuang, thank you for the compliment. It's all my due." Fang Hou chuckled, "Manager Zhuang, please go and help my young master with his medical treatment."

"Okay." Zhuang Qingning followed Fang Hou into Cheng Ruize's bedroom.

Cheng Ruize was still in bed at this time, but because he was in great spirits, he was sitting or lying, leaning on a thick soft pillow.

"Manager Zhuang." Cheng Ruize bowed when he saw Zhuang Qingning coming in, and said with a guilty smile, "I'm sorry for not being able to stand up to greet you."

"Manager Cheng, don't worry. This is a special situation. Let me take your pulse first." Zhuang Qingning said.

Cheng Ruize rolled up his sleeves and stretched out his hand.

With yesterday's experience, Zhuang Qingning was no longer as flustered as yesterday, and he acted very well. He put his hand on Cheng Ruize's wrist in a pretentious manner, and then nodded slightly, "Well, Manager Cheng's condition has improved a lot. He only needs to be treated for another two days, and take the pills I prepared on time. He will be cured in less than a month."

"Thank you, Shopkeeper Zhuang." Cheng Ruize thanked him repeatedly, "If it weren't for Shopkeeper Zhuang, I'm afraid my illness would be difficult to cure in a short time."

Although he didn't know what his illness was, he must be seriously ill, judging from the fact that he had been drowsy and seemed to have no energy for the past two days, and the fact that the doctors who came to see him were helpless.

But this time, Zhuang Qingning was able to identify the cause of the disease so easily, and the medicine worked, and the patient showed significant improvement in just one day.

"I am extremely grateful to Manager Zhuang for saving my life. Manager Zhuang's medical skills are superb and admirable..."

"Thank you for the compliment, Manager Cheng." Zhuang Qingning said hurriedly.

It's not that she is modest, it's just that the antidote is provided by the system, and the rescue mission is also issued by the system. She is just an emotionless mission completer. Listening to so many compliments, she feels a little guilty.

When Cheng Ruize heard Zhuang Qingning say this and saw a bit of embarrassment on his face, he stopped expressing his gratitude.

He had such outstanding medical skills, but he never told anyone about them, let alone showed them at all. I guess he didn't want to show off.

Cheng Ruize wondered this in his mind, and then changed the subject, "Is Manager Zhuang going to start the treatment now?"

"Well, please roll up your sleeves, Manager Cheng, and expose your left upper arm." Zhuang Qingning said.

"I'll be waiting outside. If Manager Zhuang has any instructions, just call me." In view of yesterday's situation, Fang Hou prepared to go out very consciously.
