Bei Yutang asked, "Is there?"
The shopkeeper suppressed his surprise and said with a smile, "Yes, we do, but we don't have the quantity you want for a few of the herbs you want."
"Give me whatever you have in your shop."
"good."
"Please help me prepare it first. A carriage will come to take it away later. This is a deposit for you." Bei Yutang took out a silver note of fifty taels.
After leaving the pharmacy, Bei Yutang went to purchase some other miscellaneous tools, which she would need in the future.
Near noon, Bei Yutang asked, "Are you tired?"
Xiao Zimo shook his head.
Honestly, Bei Yutang's body was too frail, and the flesh on her body was just puffy. After walking all morning, she was exhausted. Looking at little Zimo beside her, who didn't cry or get angry, she felt sorry for this sensible little guy.
All morning, Zimo followed Bei Yutang obediently, watching her busy herself without disturbing her. Sometimes he would show his curiosity, but he would not pester her with questions. Instead, he would observe and ponder on his own.
Bei Yutang took out a silk handkerchief and wiped the sweat off his forehead. "What do you want to eat?"
Xiao Zimo glanced at the surrounding stalls and pointed at the noodle stall in the corner.
"Okay. Let's eat noodles." Bei Yutang held her hand.
When the noodles came, Bei Yutang transferred the meat in the bowl to Xiao Zimo's bowl. Xiao Zimo looked at her in surprise, and his eyes were slightly moist when he looked at Bei Yutang.
"Mom, Mo'er, that's enough." Little Mo wanted to put the meat back into her bowl, but was stopped by Bei Yutang.
"Mom, you're too fat. You can't eat too much meat. Mo'er, help me share the burden."
Xiao Zimo nodded obediently.
After finishing their meal, the two rented a carriage and loaded all the things they had bought in the morning onto the carriage. Finally, they went to the drugstore and loaded the herbs onto the carriage. After Yutang paid the bill, they took the two hundred silver coins from Hongfu Restaurant, but only a few taels were left.
Sitting in the carriage, Xiao Zimo finally asked, "Mom, are these herbs used to treat illnesses?"
Bei Yutang understood that the "cure" that Xiao Zimo was talking about was his own drowsiness.
"Sort of."
These herbs were for the ointment she was going to make. This ointment was something she had learned in the previous plane of existence, and it could remove scars and whiten the skin. She was so poor now, so poor that even a third-class maid in Gu Pianran's house was richer than she was.
Gu Pianran possessed immense wealth and had the support of countless powerful men. Now, a year after her death, the only man she had taken into her harem was Tang Jingyu. As for Hua Feiyu, the eldest prince of the Zhou Dynasty, he only had admiration for her and they were playing an ambiguous game with each other without breaking the window paper.
As for now, she has hooked up with the fourth prince Gu Fanzhi, has not met Xue Qian, the successor of the Valley of Divine Doctors, has not met Qin Yuxuan, the leader of the martial arts world, and has not encountered the world's number one killer An Ye and the cult leader You Ming.
However, within the next five years, she will meet them and fall in love with them, so much so that they are willing to share the same woman with other people.
Bei Yutang never understood what love was, but now she has a vague understanding of it.
Love is staying with each other and being the only one for each other.
As for their love, Bei Yutang couldn't understand it.
I don't want to understand it either, because they are destined to be enemies.
Now she must do her best to destroy these men who have become her strong backing before Gu Pianran meets them.
