Chapter 317 Delivering Medicine
Yin Qianxue made a lot of sugar cakes, two full plates with more than ten of them.
Each one is golden, neatly shaped and has a crispy skin.
She called Xia He, Lan Xiang, Cui Qiao and others over, and everyone in the shop sat together and each of them took one to eat.
The sugar cake is crispy, sweet and glutinous when you take a bite, and it tastes great.
Baoya was a little surprised: "Although the sugar cakes made by Madam Chen are not as good as those made by mother, they are actually quite delicious!"
Yin Qianxue covered her mouth with a handkerchief and laughed secretly.
She was personally taught by her sister, so she must try her best to make it delicious.
After finishing the cake, Baoya wiped her lips and suddenly waved towards the door of the shop: "Dad!"
It was Yun Sanlang who came to take them home.
"There are so many people here, Chunxiu, how about having tea in the afternoon?" Yun Sanlang was a rough man, a bit careless, and his word choice was not very accurate.
He Chunxiu slowly stood up, amused by his words: "That's called afternoon tea, right? No, Mrs. Chen was interested and asked me to teach her how to make sugar cakes."
"There are just two left. Would you like to try one?"
As he said that, he pinched one and walked over to hand it to Yun Sanlang's mouth.
Yun Sanlang lowered his head and took two or three bites of her hand. After eating, he licked her fingers with the tip of his tongue with evil intentions.
"What are you doing? There are so many people here!" He Chunxiu's face suddenly turned red.
"Hehe." Yun Sanlang smiled innocently, "No one saw it."
Yin Qianxue sat at the table and couldn't get a word in.
She had always felt that this rough man was not worthy of her sister.
These days she came to talk to He Chunxiu every day, and also met Yun Sanlang several times. Gradually, she began to accept it.
He is a simple-minded and rough man, but a nice person. He and his sister have opened two shops in the town. Most importantly, she can see that Yun Sanlang really loves her sister and treats her well.
The scene before her made her cheeks hot and she thought of Chen Huan again.
Chen Huan is very different from Yun Sanlang. He is a person who is extremely rigorous and rigid.
He was meticulous in handling state affairs and was often so busy that he was not seen for days.
However, Chen Huan actually treated her quite well.
When we first got married, no matter how busy I was, I would rush back to be with her.
All matters, big and small, including the household treasury and the treasury, were handed over to her, and the emperor trusted her absolutely.
But when she saw He Chunxiu and Yun Sanlang feeding each other intimately, she felt a little cold in her heart again.
Chen Huan had never been so close to her before.
Do they have any feelings at all?
"Sister...Sister He, it's getting late, Xia He and I will go back first." she said.
"Hey, you're leaving now?" He Chunxiu was a little surprised. "It's okay to sit for a while."
"No, elder sister should go back and rest early." Yin Qianxue said, pulling Xia He out of the shop.
Lan Xiang and Cui Qiao had almost finished cleaning up the shop. He Chunxiu was careful and checked it inside and out before taking Bao Ya and Yun Yue onto the ox cart. Yun Sanlang closed the door and locked it.
On the ox cart on the way back, He Chunxiu's mind kept turning over the image of Yin Qianxue and the memory that suddenly popped up.
Could that be her background?
"Mom, what are you thinking about?"
A soft white little hand suddenly waved in front of her eyes.
He Chunxiu came to her senses and saw Baoya staring at her with her round eyes wide open, without blinking.
"I'm not thinking about anything." She reached out and pinched the little bun on Baoya's head, and suddenly remembered what Yunyue had said to her on the ox cart a few days ago.
Turning to Yunyue, he asked, "Yueya, you said a few days ago that Madam Chen looks a bit like Third Aunt?"
Yun Yue was holding a wooden kitten in her little hand, fiddling with it over and over again.
Hearing the voice, he said without raising his head, "Yes, that Madam Chen's eyebrows and eyes really look like Third Aunt. If Third Aunt were to dress her up, and the two of them stood together, maybe people would mistake them for sisters."
sisters……
He Chunxiu was stunned, and it seemed as if a small corner in her heart was slowly revealed.
…
Early the next morning.
Baoya and Jingzhen came back from practicing martial arts in Taohuayuan, picked up Yunyue, and took Ling An's carriage to the town.
Inside the carriage, Baoya and Yunyue told Jingzhen about Yin Qianxue and Liu Rumei one after another.
After Baoya finished speaking, she raised her little face and looked at Jingzhen and said, "Brother Jing, do you think we did a good job?"
"Okay." Jing Zhen nodded. "But, what about Liu Rumei? Do you plan to keep an eye on her?"
"Hmm..." Baoya thought for a moment, "Let's wait until she gives birth safely. Then we can send her back."
"Then what about Madam Chen?" Jing Zhen asked.
"I asked Sister Xia He to secretly deliver a letter to Master Chen. If Master Chen cares about Madam Chen, he will definitely come to town."
Jingzhen stretched out his fingers to open the curtain a little, took a look outside, and said softly, "Just one or two days."
"Hmm?" Baoya didn't hear clearly what he said.
"Nothing." Jingzhen reached out and pinched her little face.
The carriage soon stopped at the entrance of a small alley on Nanjiao Street.
Baoya and Yunyue were both a little surprised. Why weren’t they going to visit their third sister and Grandma Yu today?
Just as she was about to ask, Jingzhen took out a small paper bag from her arms and put it into Baoya's hand.
The paper package was small and tightly wrapped, but Baoya could still keenly smell a faint herbal scent.
"Brother Xiaojing, is this medicine? Why are you stuffing it into my mouth?"
Jingzhen didn't answer, but said, "Go see Yunhua later and take this medicine to that mother-in-law."
"For Grandma Yu?" Baoya was even more puzzled. Why did Brother Xiaojing send medicine to Grandma Yu for no reason?
"Yes," Jing Zhen nodded, "a few days ago, an aunt in her thirties or forties asked me to buy it. She said she wanted to deliver it to a house on Nanjiao Street."
"I thought about the location and it should be bought for the mother-in-law you often visit."
"Oh, then my fourth sister and I will be back soon."
Baoya didn't suspect anything and took Yunyue's hand, and they got off the carriage together.
Slender white fingers lifted the carriage curtain, and Jingzhen watched the two small figures of Baoya and Yunyue slowly go away and disappear into the alley.
He sighed softly.
He asked Rong Bing to prepare this medicine, and he went into the mountains several times before he finally got all the medicine. He didn't know if he could cure Grandma Yu.
Baoya and Yunyue stood at the door of Grandma Yu's house, curled up their little hands and knocked on the door.
"Here I come!" Qianqiong's voice was heard in the yard.
The wooden door opened quickly.
"It's you, come in quickly." Qian Qiong smiled and welcomed the two in.
But her face was a little pale.
Grandma Yu coughed badly this morning and tossed and turned for a long time, which scared her. She just took some medicine and went to bed.
It was still early and Yunhua had not yet come from the academy.
"Mother-in-law is still asleep, and Yunhua hasn't come yet. You two should go inside and sit for a while." Qianqiong said, "I'll go get you some water. Have you had breakfast?"
"Aunt Qiong, don't bother. My fourth sister and I are here to deliver medicine to mother-in-law." Baoya said.
"Send medicine?" Qian Qiong was stunned. "What medicine?"
