After Yao Hua left, Jiang Yue spent even more time with Old Man Chen.
Sometimes they don't even go home to sleep at night.
Moreover, Jiang Yue has become increasingly sleepy these past few days, and yesterday she slept for a whole day and night.
He was leaving in three days, and Jiang Yue's increased sleepiness made Lu Jingnian very worried.
"Master, is Yueyue really alright?"
Lu Jingnian looked at Jiang Yue, who had fallen asleep on the recliner again, his brows furrowed into a deep frown. He walked over and gently picked her up. "Master, I have to go on a mission soon. I'm really worried about Yueyue in this state."
Old Chen waved his hand dismissively, "She's been learning too much these past few days, which has taken a toll on her energy. It's normal for her to be sleepy."
Don't worry, she's finished learning everything she needed to today. Let her get a good night's sleep; after a couple of days of rest, she'll be full of energy again.
If Jiang Yue hadn't been pregnant, this situation definitely wouldn't have occurred if she hadn't been learning these things.
However, she is currently pregnant with twins, so it's normal for her to become sleepy while learning these things. It's just that she'll be sleepy, and it won't cause any harm to Jiang Yue's body, so Old Man Chen isn't worried.
After Old Chen finished speaking, seeing that Lu Jingnian still looked worried, he pursed his lips speechlessly.
"Alright, if you want her to get better quickly, go buy her a ginseng root and an old hen, make her some soup to replenish her energy."
Upon hearing this, Lu Jingnian immediately carried Jiang Yue back to the guest room, gently placed her on the bed, covered her with a blanket, and then went to buy ginseng and an old hen.
As he was leaving, Old Chen told him, "The older the ginseng, the better."
"Yes, Master."
After driving away from the courtyard, Lu Jingnian called Song Gang to inquire who had any aged ginseng.
More than an hour later.
Lu Jingnian returned to the small courtyard with a ginseng root that was nearly a hundred years old and an old hen.
Ginseng is not easy to find; those that are over a hundred years old are especially rare.
If it weren't for Song Gang's connection and the fact that Lu Jingnian offered a truly high price, the other party wouldn't have been willing to sell the ginseng to him.
After taking the items back to the courtyard, Lu Jingnian saw that Old Man Chen had given him a bunch of medicinal herbs.
"Can you make medicinal cuisine?"
Old Chen handed the medicinal herbs to Lu Jingnian, glanced at the ginseng he had brought back, and nodded in satisfaction, "This ginseng should be a hundred years old, not bad."
Cut a few slices of ginseng and put them in, then carefully store the rest; you'll need them every month.
When Old Man Chen said that Jiang Yue would need this advice, Lu Jingnian assumed that Jiang Yue would have to learn these things from him in the future and would become sleepy, so he would need to use ginseng to replenish her vital energy. He didn't think of anything else at all.
"I understand, Master."
After preparing the ginseng and the medicine that Old Man Chen had brought, Lu Jingnian carefully packed away the remaining ginseng.
Keep it for Jiang Yue to use later.
Lu Jingnian knows how to make medicinal cuisine; Jiang Yue taught him before.
This medicinal soup was stewed for quite a long time. Although a lot of medicinal herbs were added, the stew didn't taste medicinal at all; instead, it was very fragrant.
Jiang Yue, who was sleeping, was woken up by the fragrance.
Rubbing her eyes, Jiang Yue came out of the guest room and asked Lu Jingnian, "Lu Jingnian, what did you make? It smells so good!"
"You're awake."
Seeing that Jiang Yue had woken up, Lu Jingnian immediately smiled, "Master asked me to stew some medicinal food for you. It will be ready in half an hour. Go to your room and wait. I'll bring it to you when it's done."
It was a bit cold outside, and Jiang Yue wasn't wearing a coat. Lu Jingnian was worried that she would catch a cold from the wind.
Jiang Yue glanced at the somewhat gray sky and suddenly asked Lu Jingnian, "Lu Jingnian, it's so cold, it must be snowing soon, right?"
The Lunar New Year is just two months away. Jiang Yue heard from her grandmother that it snows in City A every year around this time.
"Judging from the weather, it's likely to snow today."
Lu Jingnian helped her into the house and asked Jiang Yue, "Do you like snow?"
If it snows tonight, shall I build you a snowman?
Anything Jiang Yue likes, and anything Lu Jingnian can do, he will definitely fulfill for her.
"Then I want to build a snowman with you, a snowman of you and a snowman of me."
"Okay, I'll do as you say."
Lu Jingnian smiled and pinched her cheek, then helped her put on her coat. "It's cold outside, you wait for me inside. I'll go check on the medicinal cuisine."
Watching him go to the kitchen, Jiang Yue suddenly stopped smiling and touched her stomach.
After waking up, she felt nauseous and had an upset stomach.
Although Jiang Yue had never given birth, she had seen stories about morning sickness in pregnant women when watching TV dramas or browsing videos online.
Jiang Yue found it somewhat unbelievable; could morning sickness start so early?
It's only been a few days?
If Old Man Chen hadn't told her she was pregnant, she wouldn't have been able to find out at the hospital.
Jiang Yue got out of bed, put on her shoes, and was just about to go find Old Man Chen to ask him to take a look at what was wrong when Lu Jingnian, who had gone to the kitchen, returned.
He was holding a freshly brewed medicinal meal in his hand.
“I was originally going to wait a while before you drank it, but Master said that this medicinal soup is just right after being simmered for this amount of time, so I brought it to you.”
The medicinal food emitted a fragrance that Jiang Yue couldn't quite describe. The smell of this fragrance instantly made the discomfort in Jiang Yue's stomach disappear.
Upon hearing that it was Old Man Chen who had asked Lu Jingnian to prepare the medicinal meal, Jiang Yue took the spoon from Lu Jingnian's hand and carefully took a sip.
The medicinal food had a sweet taste, but there was no medicinal flavor in it. I don't know what was put in it, but it tasted very good.
"Drink slowly, be careful it's hot."
Seeing that Jiang Yue was drinking too quickly, Lu Jingnian was worried that she might burn herself.
"Don't worry, I won't get burned."
After finishing the medicinal diet, Jiang Yue had a thin layer of sweat on her forehead and felt warm all over. Compared to the drowsiness of the past few days, she now felt like she had just recharged and was full of energy.
And that nausea disappeared, and my stomach felt especially comfortable.
"Lu Jingnian, what's in this soup? It's delicious."
"There's ginseng in this, along with medicine prepared by my master. If you like it, I'll go ask my master later if you can still drink it tomorrow. If he says you can, I'll make it for you again tomorrow."
Jiang Yue knew the effects of ginseng and that pregnant women could eat it, but not too much.
After drinking the medicinal food and regaining her energy, Jiang Yue began preparing things for Lu Jingnian to protect himself and his life.
"Yueyue, what you've given me is enough."
Lu Jingnian watched her busy work and reached out to grasp her wrist.
"Stop doing it, I promise I'll come back alive to see you."
"I believe your assurance, but I'm still not at ease."
