After calling the cat several times without it returning, I tidied up the yard and closed the door, and only then did calico come back from outside.
"Where did it go?" Jiang Yue squatted down and petted the cat. It was still dry all over, so she didn't know where it had gone.
"Meow meow meow~"
Feeling Jiang Yue's touch, Sanhua let out a few comfortable moans. Jiang Yue got up and patted Sanhua's bottom: "Stop acting cute, come inside quickly, we're about to close the door."
After Sanhua came in, Jiang Yue locked the door and went back inside. After feeding the cat, she went to sleep.
The next morning, Jiang Yue got up early. After washing up and doing her morning prayers, she started cooking for herself. Not wanting to move today, she took out a portion of spiritual food from her space. She had only taken two bites when Sanhua ran over, smelling the aroma of the food.
Jiang Yue couldn't bear to see it acting cute, so she fed it a little bit of shredded meat. That was enough for her to digest for the day. She didn't dare to feed it anything indiscriminately, as it was not good for it to get too full.
After finishing her meal, she prepared to go down the mountain to the capital. She was running low on seasonings and wanted to buy some other things. Now she didn't have to wait for the village's oxcart to go to the capital anymore; she had her own horse-drawn carriage and could go whenever she wanted.
After packing her things, Jiang Yue began to descend the mountain. Upon arriving at the manor, she took a carriage to the capital. Once there, Jiang Yue first went to a bookstore. Although she had money now, she still needed to deal with the copied scriptures. So, although Jiang Yue copied fewer, she still accumulated quite a few over time.
After selling the copied scriptures, Jiang Yue bought some storybooks to read and also bought some books that she didn't already have at home to enrich her study's bookshelves.
After leaving the bookstore, she went to the pharmacy. Although she rarely went out in her real form, she didn't go out in disguise very often, so she still needed to buy the necessary medicinal herbs.
After finishing these two tasks, I strolled around the market, bought a bunch of snacks, and then some cooking oil, salt, soy sauce, and vinegar before heading home. Actually, these things could also be sold at the market near the academy, but Jiang Yue hadn't been to Chang'an for a long time, so she came here to have some fun.
It was already evening when I got home. It was too far away, and the day was gone in no time. I won't go there again next time; it's too much of a waste of time. Wouldn't it be better to use that time to read or write?
The carriage took Jiang Yue down the mountain back to the village. Jiang Yue didn't need anyone to take her; she carried her things up the mountain herself. After returning to the Taoist temple, she put the things she bought there and went to sleep, planning to organize them the next day.
The next day, after breakfast, she put her things away, and those who needed to go to the kitchen went to the kitchen and those who needed to go to the study went to the study. After tidying up, she wanted to read a book, but Master Sun came over and invited her to go to gather herbs. She packed her things and accompanied Master Sun up the mountain.
This trip lasted for more than half a month. After half a month, Jiang Yue had become quite tanned. Because the two of them had traveled quite far, their herb-gathering trip was very fruitful, and they discovered many rare herbs.
About half a month passed after processing the herbs, and Jiang Yue returned to her daily routine of drinking tea and reading books. While Jiang Yue was fine, the protagonist had a lot of trouble and even went to prison for a period of study. After learning the cause and effect, Jiang Yue could understand the protagonist, because many things that seemed commonplace in this era were unacceptable to modern people with their values.
However, every bad news has its good news. The protagonist is getting married, and Jiang Yue's calligraphy can be given away. But one piece of calligraphy isn't enough, so Jiang Yue prepared another gift as usual.
The wedding day was sunny and bright, a rare sunny day recently. It should have been very hot, but there was a gentle breeze. It was a lively day, and the guests were mostly people with names and identities in future generations. Jiang Yue controlled Bai Ze to record it and drew it out for future generations to see when she had time.
After attending the wedding, Jiang Yue returned home that evening, bringing some snacks with her. These were gifts from the main couple's family, and everyone would have some to eat the next morning without having to make breakfast.
After washing up, Jiang Yue went to bed and slept soundly through the night. The next morning, she ate the snacks she had brought back the night before for breakfast, planning what to do that day as she ate. Just then, someone came up the mountain.
Jiang Yue straightened her clothes and went to greet the guest. The guest was dressed in fine clothes, had an extraordinary temperament, and looked anxious. It turned out that his wife was having a difficult childbirth, and Master Sun from the academy had recommended him. The matter was urgent, and Jiang Yue picked up her medicine box and left without even closing the door.
On the way down the mountain, Jiang Yue learned that the woman was in the capital and had already entered the delivery room. She felt a little helpless. Was it too late at this point? Hearing that Master Sun had already passed away, there might still be some hope.
Fortunately, Jiang Yue had a horse and had learned to ride. After mounting the horse, she started riding at full speed, only slowing down when she reached the city gate. With the man's guidance, the two arrived safely. Once there, the man led the way, while Jiang Yue followed behind carrying her medicine box. After arriving near a courtyard, Jiang Yue saw the protagonist, Master Sun, and the man's family.
While Jiang Yue was cleaning the dust off her body, Master Sun explained the current situation to her. She should have taken a bath and changed clothes before entering the delivery room, but it was clearly too late. Jiang Yue cast a cleansing spell, nodded to everyone, and went inside.
"Don't worry, Master Jiang's medical skills are very strong, and he didn't arrive too late. There is still a chance for the mother and child to be born safely."
Jiang Yue went straight to the mother in labor after entering the delivery room. She grabbed one of her hands and started to take her pulse, but the mother was in too much pain and kept moving around, which greatly interfered with Jiang Yue's diagnosis. After taking her pulse, Jiang Yue's expression was a little serious. The mother's condition was a bit dangerous. To save her, she could only use elixirs. However, she didn't need elixirs from the cultivation world. She could use the ones she refined herself in the later stages of her cultivation.
Jiang Yue took out a small, precious-looking box from her medicine chest, a preparation she had made long ago. She certainly wouldn't wait until something happened to take it from her spatial storage. Coupled with her solemn expression and focused movements, anyone could tell that this medicine was very valuable. After taking out the pill, Jiang Yue called to the maid beside her, "Remove the towel from Madam's mouth, and then prepare warm water, quickly!"
The maid was well-trained and immediately sprang into action upon hearing Jiang Yue's command. There was no question of whether she believed him or not; if she didn't believe him, she couldn't let Jiang Yue in, could she? Jiang Yue walked up to the pregnant woman and said, "I'm about to feed you your medicine. Just bear with it and make sure you take it, otherwise even a god couldn't save you, understand?"
Seeing the pregnant woman nod, Jiang Yue had her take a deep breath and fed her the pill. After she took the medicine, along with a series of dazzling procedures such as acupuncture and massage, the pregnant woman's condition finally stabilized. In fact, it was the pill that had the effect; the other procedures were just to weaken the pill's effect. After all, after this incident, there would definitely be people who wanted the medicine, so the pill couldn't appear too effective.
