Chapter 295 Preparation
"Shi Mi?" Yuan Ziyu's eyes widened when he heard this: "The injured person is Shi Mi?"
Yuan Zian nodded.
"Where is Shi Mi?" Yuan Ziyu asked hurriedly.
"In the backyard!" Yuan Zian saw that Yuan Ziyu was very worried, and hurriedly said, "Don't worry, Chongshan is taking care of her."
Yuan Ziyu paused and looked at Yuan Zian: "Chongshan?"
Yuan Zian nodded and said, "There are no women in the shop. Chongshan is the one who is most familiar with her, so let Chongshan take care of her first. Don't worry, Miss Shimi's injuries are not serious."
"Oh!" Yuan Ziyu nodded and said, "I'll go see her. Chongshan is a man after all, so it's not convenient for him to go. I'll take her back later so that someone can take care of her."
"Alright!"
Yuan Ziyu entered the backyard and just as she reached the room where Shi Mi was recuperating, she heard Chongshan's voice: "Miss Shi Mi, this medicine is at the perfect temperature. Drink it while it's hot."
"Thank you, Brother Chongshan!" It was Shi Mi's voice.
"Um... Miss Shimi, you are too polite!"
Yuan Ziyu pushed the door open and walked in. Chongshan turned around and saw that it was Yuan Ziyu, and hurriedly bowed and said, "My humble servant greets the Second Miss!"
"Second Miss!" Shi Mi got out of bed and bowed when she saw her.
Yuan Ziyou hurried forward and held her down: "You are still injured, don't move too much, lie down quickly."
"Thank you, Second Miss!"
Yuan Ziyou asked, "Where is the injury?"
"Second Miss, it's nothing serious. You just bumped your leg. It will be fine in a few days!" Shi Mi said with a smile.
"You were hit pretty hard. The doctor told you to rest for at least half a month!" Chongshan hurriedly replied.
Yuan Ziyu glared at Shi Mi and said, "It's so serious, and you don't take it seriously. What if you develop a chronic illness later?"
"It's really okay!" Shi Mi said with a smile.
Yuan Ziyou glanced back at Chongshan and said to Shi Mi, "Come back to the manor with me later. We'll return to the village after you've recovered from your injuries!"
"Second Miss, no, there are still many things to do on the farm!" Shi Mi said hurriedly.
"It has to be done, even if it's not possible. Things at the manor won't take place in the next few days. I happen to be going there in the next two days, so I can just make the arrangements!" Yuan Ziyu said, without allowing Shi Mi to refuse, and ordered Qingying and Qingzhi: "You two will help Shi Mi get on the carriage, and we will go back to the mansion!"
"yes!"
After returning to the Yuan Mansion, Yuan Ziyu placed Shi Mi in Wuyou Pavilion and sent a little maid to take care of Shi Mi.
"Second Miss, I want to tell you something!" After everything was settled, Shi Mi hurriedly said to Yuan Ziyu.
Yuan Ziyou asked, "What's the matter?"
Yuan Ziyu knew that if it wasn't something urgent, Shi Mi wouldn't have come all the way here in such a hurry.
"I was looking through the manuscripts my father left behind a few days ago!" Shi Mi said, pulling out a piece of paper from her bosom and handing it to Yuan Ziyu. "It records some things about epidemics, not only how to prevent them, but also prescriptions for treatment. I thought that with the increasing number of refugees nowadays, the herbal medicine farm set aside by the second young lady might be useful, so I thought of giving it to the second young lady to see if she could use it."
Yuan Ziyou took the paper, glanced at it briefly, and said happily to Shi Mi, "That's great! It's very useful. Thank you for your hard work this time!"
When Shi Mi heard Yuan Ziyu say it was useful, she narrowed her eyes and smiled: "It is my honor to be able to help the second young lady!"
"Don't think about anything these days. Just rest here and recuperate. I will talk to your mother!" Yuan Ziyu ordered.
"Thank you, second lady!"
In the evening, Yuan Ziyu ran to Liufeng Garden and told Yuan Qifeng and Liu about his decision to follow Huo Xifei to provide disaster relief.
Yuan Qifeng was fine, but Liu Shi was reluctant to let him go: "You'er, if we go south, how can a girl like you withstand all the bumps and bruises? Listen to your mother and stay at home, okay? If you want to show your gratitude, just donate more rice and grain!"
"Mother, I've learned a lot about medicine these days, and I've also learned a lot from Aunt Gu. I can use all of this right away. I should be able to help in the south!" Yuan Ziyu took Liu's arm and said, "Mother, please let me go. I promise to be back soon, okay?"
"No!" Liu frowned and said, "There are severe floods everywhere right now. Just look outside the capital and you'll see. The number of refugees is only increasing. What if they riot and hurt you? No, absolutely not. You just stay home and don't go anywhere."
"Mother, you've forgotten that I didn't practice all this kung fu in vain. I'm not one of those ladies in the boudoir who can't lift anything!" Yuan Ziyu shook Liu's arm coquettishly, "Mother, just let You'er go. You'er promises that no one can hurt me. Besides, I have Brother Xi to protect me. If I go to the south, I might be able to save a lot of people! Maybe someone can survive because of me. Think about it, this is a great merit!"
"You'er, be obedient!" Liu remained unmoved.
"Dad!" Seeing that he couldn't persuade Liu, Yuan Ziyu had no choice but to ask Yuan Qifeng for help!
Yuan Qifeng was naturally reluctant to let Yuan Ziyu go on this long journey, but when he saw that his daughter cared about the people, he felt very comforted and proud.
Seeing Yuan Ziyu asking for help, he smiled and said to Liu: "Yun'er, since You'er insists on going, let her go. With Fei'er here, nothing will happen!"
"Brother Feng!" Liu frowned and said, "You'er is making trouble, why are you doing the same? You'er is skilled, but two fists can't stand up to four palms, not to mention that You'er is a girl!"
"I know, but You'er is going south with the intention of saving people!" Yuan Qifeng said with a smile, "Why don't we just agree? What if we don't agree and You'er sneaks away? Wouldn't you be even more anxious?"
When Liu heard Yuan Qifeng's words, she immediately glared at Yuan Ziyu: "How dare she!"
"I dare not!" Yuan Ziyou hurriedly comforted the furious Liu: "Mother, please agree to your request, You'er!"
In the end, after some persuasion from Yuan's father and daughter, Liu finally agreed to Yuan Ziyu's request, but she also made three conditions before finally agreeing.
Yuan Ziyu breathed a sigh of relief. At least she had passed the test of the Liu family. Otherwise, she would have been really struggling with whether to sneak away and follow Huo Xi to the south. After all, she still remembered Master Wujie's words clearly!
In this life, there is a sharp knife hanging over the heads of their Yuan family, and no one knows when it will fall. If this disaster relief can really accumulate merit, it may be of benefit to their Yuan family.
After persuading Liu, Yuan Ziyu hurried to the herbal medicine farm and brought back all the herbs stored in the farm to the Yuan Mansion. When no one was paying attention, he collected half of the herbs and placed them in the Qiongjiang Pavilion.
The same method was used for the rice from several other farms, with only half left outside.
Two days later, Emperor Wen of Qi issued an edict, ordering Huo Xifei to go to the south to provide disaster relief.
