"You!" Cai Ling's eyes flashed with knives.
At this time, there was a sound of applause. Everyone looked and saw a girl in a goose yellow dress walking out of the door. It was Miss Zhu Miaozhu, one of the three lucky guests who were given cakes a few days ago.
Zhu Miaonai is the daughter of Zhu Hongda, the county lieutenant. Although Zhu Hongda's official position is one level lower than that of the county magistrate, he controls the armed forces of the entire Fengchi County, so his actual power is not much different.
Cai Kuo, the county magistrate, was corrupt and perverted the law, disregarding human life. However, the reason Fengchi County could still prosper today was precisely because of the County Lieutenant Zhu Hongda, who kept him in check. Otherwise, if Cai Kuo had been the sole ruler, Fengchi County would have been driven into poverty by him.
Because of the serious disagreement between Cai Kuo and Zhu Hongda in political views, the Cai and Zhu families were incompatible, and the families of the two families were always at loggerheads when they met outside.
The cake that Cai Ling liked was the one Zhu Miao had ordered. When she came to pick up the cake, she happened to hear what Xue Huan said to Cai Ling, and she immediately applauded her in her heart.
Seeing Zhu Miao, Cai Ling's face turned even uglier. "Zhu Miao, why are you here to join in the fun?"
Zhu Miao smiled and said, "Oh, what a coincidence! This cake is exactly what I ordered. I heard you wanted to steal it. I haven't seen you for a while, and you still haven't gotten over your habit of stealing other people's things. It seems your confinement a while ago was for nothing."
As soon as these words were spoken, the other people in the store started whispering again.
"No wonder I haven't seen her out for a while. It turns out she's been locked up at home. I don't know what she's done wrong."
"I was saying that Fengchi County has been much quieter lately. I just realized it now. It turns out it's because someone's away."
"The county magistrate finally did a good thing, but it's a pity that he didn't keep her locked up for a while longer."
Cai Ling glared at Xue Huan and Zhu Miao fiercely. "Very good, Zhao Ji, I'll make a note of it."
After saying these harsh words, she left angrily with her maid.
Xue Huan inexplicably felt that this scene was somewhat familiar. Thinking back to the last time in Mo Hou Zhai, it was the same thing. She couldn't help but feel a strange sense of sympathy for Cai Ling.
If this were a novel, Cai Ling would obviously be the character of the vicious female supporting role, who appears to be courting death again and again, as if she has been reduced in intelligence.
However, this is not a novel, but the real world. Given Cai Ling's vengeful nature, she will definitely not let it go. She has to make some preparations in advance.
"Miss Zhao, thank you so much this time." Zhu Miao bowed to Xue Huan.
Xue Huan smiled, "It's nothing. Protecting the interests of our guests is what we should do."
Zhu Miao didn't rush to get the cake. She looked around and said to Xue Huan, "Miss Zhao, may I have a moment to talk?"
Xue Huan nodded and took her to the reception room in the backyard.
The place is also decorated in a cool and elegant style, which makes people feel comfortable just by looking at it.
After sitting down, Xue Huan poured Zhu Miao a cup of cold tea and asked, "I wonder what Miss Zhu wants to say?"
Zhu Miao took a sip of the herbal tea and found it particularly refreshing and soothing to the throat, with a hint of sweetness. It really quenched her thirst, so she drank two more sips.
"Miss Zhao, didn't you give me a gift last time? I've been drinking the flower tea you gave me these past few days. It tastes better than any other tea I've ever had. The key is that after drinking it, my period isn't as uncomfortable as before!"
She suffers from dysmenorrhea. Since her first period, she has to experience excruciating pain every month, and the pain lasts for seven days.
It is difficult to explain the problem of dysmenorrhea to the doctor in detail. When I saw the doctor, he just prescribed some analgesics and tranquilizers, the kind that would have no effect and no harm when taken.
So I have to endure it every time.
Many of the women around her, such as her mother, sister-in-law, and friends, also had this problem, but there was no effective way to deal with it, so they could only endure those few days.
"Women are all like this. Just bear with it and it will pass. I was like this when I was a girl. It will get better when you get married and have children." Her sister-in-law also said this to her.
Zhu Miao had heard this so many times that she felt this was probably the fate of women. If there was an afterlife, she definitely didn't want to be a woman. What good was there in being a woman? Every month she had to go through a cycle of death and rebirth, and giving birth was like going through the gates of hell.
However, this time, after her period, her symptoms were surprisingly much milder than before! Although she still felt some pain in her lower abdomen, it was bearable. Unlike before, when she was vomiting and having diarrhea, and was covered in cold sweats, it felt like a knife was twisting her stomach.
Zhu Miao pondered for a while, wondering what had caused the pain to decrease so much this time. It couldn't be for no reason, right?
After thinking about it, she realized that it might be because she drank the flower tea given by Miss Zhao!
In fact, when she drank it for the first time, she felt warm all over. She slept very soundly that night, and her feet were not as cold as before.
But at that time she just thought it was a coincidence and didn't take it seriously.
Until the sunflower water arrives as expected.
During her menstrual period, she would drink a cup of scented tea every day. Because of this, her dysmenorrhea symptoms were greatly relieved!
There are such obvious effects after drinking it just a few times. If she drinks it for a long time, won’t her dysmenorrhea be cured?
Thinking that she would be free from dysmenorrhea from now on, she felt that the sky became bluer, the wind became clearer, and even the noisy cicadas outside sounded so pleasant!
After listening to Zhu Miao's story, Xue Huan was not surprised, because what she gave to the three people that day was rose and motherwort tea, which can effectively relieve dysmenorrhea.
She also suffered from dysmenorrhea in her previous life. Her grandfather knew an old Chinese doctor. After taking her to see him, the old doctor did not prescribe her any medicine, but gave her two prescriptions, one for foot bath and the other for scented tea, and asked her to soak her feet and drink scented tea every day.
After persisting for a month, her dysmenorrhea was effectively relieved.
Three months later, the symptoms had become very mild.
After half a year, dysmenorrhea was basically gone.
Later, even though she no longer suffered from dysmenorrhea, she continued the habit of soaking her feet and drinking scented tea.
After coming here, Xue Huan planted large areas of roses and motherwort in the space, and after they grew up, she made a batch of scented tea.
Not only did she drink it herself, she also asked Xue's mother and Xue Jun to drink it too.
When I was giving a gift before, I couldn’t think of what to give, so I packed the flower tea in.
"Miss Zhao, do you have any extra scented tea? I'd like to buy some from you." Zhu Miao had laid so much groundwork just for this sentence.
Xue Huan had not originally thought of selling scented tea, but since Zhu Miao asked about it, she decided to put the scented tea on the shelves. Since she was going to sell it, she might as well target a wide customer base.
"Yes, ten taels of silver for one tael. How much do you want?"
This price was far beyond Zhu Miao's expectations. It was not too expensive, but it was too cheap compared to her expectations!
"Give me two kilograms first." Zhu Miaohao placed the order with great enthusiasm.
