Chapter 258 The Little Ornament I Gave You



Akiha Fukure: "Yes."

After waiting for a while, Qiuye came in carrying a small medicine pot: "Your Highness, I have brought the medicine."

Su Wanyan gestured, and Qiu Ye handed the small medicine jar to Su He.

Su He asked, puzzled, "Your Majesty, what is this?"

Out of politeness, before I could even finish asking the question, I carefully accepted it with both hands.

Su Wanyan smiled and said, "This medicine is very effective in relieving pain. You can take it and give it to the prince consort to try."

This is medicine she made herself.

Ever since the last spring hunt, when Yu Nanqing tried to pour the medicinal powder onto her face, she improved the medicine into this small bottle of ointment, like a perfume balm.

It can be used for both internal and external injuries, and its medicinal effects are especially evident in sprains and bruises. It is also convenient to carry and won't get everywhere. A thin layer is enough to heal wounds and stop bleeding.

Of course, we're not talking about deep, bone-exposing wounds.

Because she was very satisfied with her work, Su Wanyan made quite a few in one go.

They were just waiting for Yu Nanqing to get injured so they could use him.

Su Wanyan didn't elaborate on the origin and efficacy of the medicine. These kinds of things can only be known after using them; it would be a waste of breath to explain if people didn't believe her.

"Yes." Su He stood up: "This humble subject thanks you on behalf of the Prince Consort."

"Although this medicine is very effective, the prince consort's injury is not something that can be treated overnight. It would be best to have the imperial physician examine him."

The imperial physicians must also know acupuncture; combining them would yield better treatment results.

"Yes, Your Highness will certainly convey your words to the Prince Consort."

Having said all that needed to be said, Su He bowed respectfully: "Today, this humble subject has come to see Your Majesty. If there is nothing else, this humble subject will not disturb you any further."

Su Wanyan didn't linger, stood up and said with a smile, "I'll see you off."

"Your Majesty, please wait." Su He raised her hand to stop her, lowered her eyes slightly, and then turned and left the main hall.

As soon as Su He left, Huang Ye came in carrying a food box and curtsied, "Your Highness, these are butterfly pastries sent by Miss Xu. The person who sent them said they were just made this morning and are still warm."

Su Wanyan raised an eyebrow slightly; she had actually delivered it.

I thought it was just a polite remark to smooth things over.

Huang Ye placed the food box on the tea table, opened it, and golden butterfly pastries came into view. Judging from the color, they were freshly made, and the edges of the pastries were coated with glistening icing.

I picked up a piece; it was still warm.

"Autumn leaves, yellow leaves, you should try some too."

Qiu Ye and Huang Ye shook their heads repeatedly. This was Miss Xu's kind gesture; how could they possibly accept it?

Su Wanyan pursed her lips and didn't insist. Just then, Yu Nanqing's figure reappeared at the doorway against the light.

Su Wanyan's eyes lit up, and she looked up to see Yu Nanqing dressed in white brocade with a black python pattern, seemingly approaching with an imposing aura emanating from the light.

He was also holding a small trinket in his hand, which was a lucky doll holding a gourd flute.

Yu Nanqing had a faint smile on his face. Every time he saw Su Wanyan, his eyes were only on her: "What is Yan'er eating?"

"The butterfly cookies were sent by Miss Xu. I haven't tried them yet." As she spoke, she casually stuffed the butterfly cookie she had just picked up into his mouth.

Yu Nanqing wasn't annoyed that her mouth was blocked. She cooperated and took a bite, and crumbs of the pastry fell down with each bite.

Su Wanyan hurriedly reached out her small hand to catch it, but the crumbs had already fallen, and there wasn't much left to catch.

The two of them didn't seem to mind. Su Wanyan asked with a smile, "Is it delicious?"

"Mmm, delicious."

Su Wanyan smiled, her eyes crinkling. She turned the butterfly pastry in her hand around and took a bite from the spot where Yu Nanqing had bitten.

"..." Yu Nanqing's eyes widened in shock, his thin lips pursed, as if he wanted to say something but couldn't.

That's... the place he ate at...

"What's wrong?"

Yu Nanqing shook her head repeatedly, her heart pounding as she hurriedly covered the faint blush on her ears.

"What are you shy about?" He tried to cover it up, but Su Wanyan insisted on exposing him.

"Ahem." Yu Nanqing coughed lightly, her fist clenched to her lips, and quickly changed the subject, handing the small ornament in her hand to her: "This is for Yan'er."

"Hmm?" Su Wanyan had noticed it a while ago and asked curiously, "What is that?"

When the thing was placed in front of her, Su Wanyan noticed that the top of the lucky doll's head was not sealed.

Yu Nanqing placed the small ornament on the tea table, a smile playing on his lips, eager to show it to Su Wanyan.

He picked up the tea that Su Wanyan hadn't finished drinking and poured it over Fuwa's head: "Pour water in from here, and when it's full, the water will..."

It sputtered out from the tube of the hulusi.

"Haha!" Su Wanyan couldn't help but laugh twice: "It looks like they're peeing!"

He felt it was rude to say it aloud, so he quickly raised his hand to cover his mouth.

Yu Nanqing's face instantly darkened.

He hadn't thought about it that way; he just thought it was interesting and that Su Wanyan would like it. But now, seeing the water spitting out from the gourd flute, he immediately put down the teapot and put the ornament away: "This is no good!"

He'll go back and buy something even more interesting!

This is not good!

Seeing Yu Nanqing's reaction, Su Wanyan couldn't help but laugh even louder.

Yu Nanqing's expression darkened further, and she frowned, looking aggrieved: "Yan'er, stop smiling."

Su Wanyan was in a good mood and reached into his pocket: "We've already bought it, why take it back? Let me play with it."

"No!" Yu Nanqing avoided Su Wanyan's rummaging.

"Oh, so what? Doesn't the water clock look just like that when it's emptying water? Why don't you take the water clock apart? We can make a small landscape and put this doll in the room. It can not only be for decoration, but also create a feng shui corner. Wouldn't that be great?"

"..." Yu Nanqing frowned, her mind filled with strange thoughts.

How could a water clock resemble...?

"Oh, it's out!" Su Wanyan reached out and tugged at his wide sleeve.

Yu Nanqing was pulled down by her, and that delicate and petite face suddenly came into view, along with that pink and incessantly chattering little mouth, which made Yu Nanqing frown.

"Hurry up, isn't this a gift for me? I really like it, stop dawdling." Su Wanyan looked up at him, her eyes crinkling with amusement, unlike his gloomy expression. Su Wanyan smiled, her eyes crinkling into crescents.

If Yu Nanqing wanted to hide, Su Wanyan would definitely not be able to find him.

He pursed his lips and stiffened his body, persisting for a while. In the end, he couldn't resist Su Wanyan's insistence and took out the small ornament. He pursed his thin lips for a long time before saying, "You are not allowed to put water in it."

"..." Su Wanyan was amused by him: "Didn't you just say you were going to do landscaping?"

"I won't do it!"

"Alright, alright, then I won't do it. Whatever you say." Su Wanyan chuckled.

She turned the ornament upside down and shook it: "It's all wet, aren't you afraid of getting your clothes wet?"

What harm is there in a little water?

While thinking, she picked up the ornament, took out a handkerchief from her body, and carefully wiped the moisture off it.

But his appearance was still as awkward as before.
