Jiang Yan opened the medicine packages and checked them one by one to make sure there was no mistake with the medicine. Then she repacked the rest of the medicine packages and left only one to prepare for boiling the medicine.
Chen Juxiang leaned over to take a look, and saw bugs in the herbs. She was so scared that her face turned pale.
Jiang Yan taught Li Caiying and Chang Li how to boil the medicine. "This is not difficult to learn. It is very similar to the way Chang Li boiled the medicine before. It is also three bowls of water boiled into one bowl. Just keep the heat on medium."
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Chen Juxiang called Bao Yuanchao back to the west room and said, "Look, there are no insects in the medicine, and it seems there is also tree bark. Will this work?"
Bao Yuanchao didn't understand at all, but he believed in Jiang Yan.
During the most confused period of his life, it was Jiang Yan who helped him, taught him farming techniques, bought him books, and patiently solved the problems he raised.
In Bao Yuanchao's eyes, Jiang Yan is omnipotent. She is very smart and very powerful.
"I don't know much about medicinal herbs either, why don't you go ask?"
How could Chen Juxiang dare to do that? Her husband's family was all being played around by Jiang Yan. If she went over to them, she would definitely be scolded.
"Go ahead and ask her what kind of medicine they are." Can a daughter-in-law be the same as a son? A daughter-in-law is in her husband's house, and she can be right or wrong. Sons are different. No matter what their parents do, they will not take it out on their sons.
"Go ask."
"I won't go." Even though Bao Yuanchao had a good temper, he knew that Chen Juxiang was asking him to go out and take the blame. "Juxiang, let me tell you, you haven't been in contact with Xiao Jiang for a long time, and you don't understand her temper. She is a person who sticks to her word. You'd better not mess with her."
The two have been married for almost two years, and Bao Yuanchao knows Chen Juxiang better. As the favored youngest in the family, she is the only girl in the family, and she is extremely precious to him. This also makes Chen Juxiang's character very competitive. She wants to compete with others in everything and never admits defeat.
It would be fine if she was ambitious, but she is the type who can't stand others doing well.
"Is it as exaggerated as you say? I don't think Jiang Yan is that amazing. She's just an ordinary person. Only your family treats her like a treasure."
Chen Juxiang was a little unconvinced and muttered quietly, "Isn't it just that he has an attractive face?"
She thought she spoke very quietly, but unfortunately every word of this sentence fell into Bao Yuanchao's ears. The man exploded on the spot, locked the door from the inside, and pushed Chen Juxiang.
Chen Juxiang was startled and was about to explode when she realized what was going on. "What are you doing?"
There was no man in the Bao family who would fight with a woman, so Bao Yuanchao just pushed her. Facing Chen Juxiang's questioning, Bao Yuanchao did not tolerate it. He pointed at Chen Juxiang with his eyes wide open and said in a low voice, "Chen Juxiang, I warn you, shut your stinky mouth."
"you……"
"What do you mean by 'you'? Do you think you can bully Jiang Yan? Let me tell you, she saved Xiaobao's life on her first day as an educated youth in Shengli Brigade. If it weren't for her, Xiaobao would have drowned."
She also knew about this.
"Later, my eldest brother's ex-wife went crazy and tied Xiaobao up to the mountain. He was almost taken away by a wanted criminal. It was also Xiao Jiang, the educated youth, who single-handedly rescued him? She almost crippled that man. Do you think you are more powerful than the wanted criminal?"
Chen Juxiang was frightened. No matter how strong she was, she was only strong at home and in the village, and was spoiled by her family. If she really met such a dangerous person, she would probably faint on the spot.
"Later, my eldest brother was stabbed by a gangster while on a mission. That gangster was a real desperado who had killed several people! It was Jiang Yan who caught him, tied him up and took him to the police station, saving my eldest brother."
Chen Juxiang's legs went weak when she heard this. "It's fake, isn't it?"
"Hmph, you'd better be honest and don't break our family's taboos. Su Yun gave birth to Xiaobao, but she plotted against Jiang Yan, and our family couldn't tolerate her. In the end, she divorced my eldest brother and lost her life. She is a lesson for you, you'd better think about it. We don't have any children yet..."
It is true that Bao Yuanchao is an honest man, but he is also a smart man. His honesty does not mean he is stupid. If Chen Juxiang lives an honest life, he can tolerate her little tricks and her little hypocrisy, just as a couple's interest, nothing big. As a man, let your wife take advantage of you, and don't suffer any loss.
But if she makes a mistake and attacks the benefactor of the Bao family, don't blame herself for being ruthless.
Bao Yuanchao's words really frightened Chen Juxiang. She didn't know Jiang Yan was such a cruel person! She only knew that Jiang Yan saved Xiaobao and Bao Shengli, but she didn't know how.
Now that she knew, she would never find fault with Jiang Yan again.
Anyway, she is a guest and will leave sooner or later. After she leaves, I will still be the only one in this family.
"I, I don't know. Yuan Chao, don't worry, I won't talk nonsense again. I, I am doing this for the good of this family. I am afraid that you will be deceived by her."
Bao Yuanchao glared at her fiercely and said, "Watch your mouth!"
After saying that, he turned around, opened the door and walked out of the house.
Anyway, I'm feeling very confused right now, so I'll just find something to do, fill the water tank, and chop some firewood.
Chen Juxiang felt a burning sensation on her face and was very sad, but she didn't want to give others something to talk about, so she slapped her face and hurried out.
Chang Li was decocting medicine. Although she looked quiet and the same as usual, Chen Juxiang didn't know why, but she felt like she was laughing at her.
She was so mad!
Chen Juxiang stamped her feet, turned around and left the room.
In the yard, Bao Yuanchao was chopping wood. Jiang Yan seemed very interested and took the axe from him.
Chen Juxiang was a little dissatisfied, but she didn't dare to say anything and could only watch from the side.
Doesn’t this woman want to chop wood?
This is not a job that everyone can do well, it requires a lot of strength and accuracy.
Jiang Yan took a piece of log and placed it on the tree stump, then gestured with the axe.
Bao Yuanchao didn't know what she was going to do, but he still stayed away from her because he remembered his elder brother saying that the educated youth Xiao Jiang was very strong.
Jiang Yan raised his arm, lifted the axe high, and then dropped it heavily.
A loud noise was heard, startling even the people in the house. They rushed out to see what was happening, but they opened their mouths in shock at the scene before them. The big tree stump used for chopping firewood at home had been used for many years. It was picked up from the forest farm. It was big and solid, just right for chopping firewood.
But now, the wooden block was actually split into two halves, and the axe was deeply embedded in the bricks, splitting all the bricks on the ground.
"I'm sorry, I used too much force."
Chen Juxiang covered her chest with her hands, feeling inexplicably that Jiang Yan did it on purpose. She made such a big noise just to warn her.
Chen Juxiang wanted to cry, but she was a little afraid...
She wants to go home...
