"So you know how hard your husband works outside."
"Of course I know. This ham is for nourishing your legs. As the saying goes, you are what you eat." Gu Yunru raised her beautiful swan neck proudly, and when she looked at Rong Zhen, she rolled her eyes and quickly lowered her head.
"Husband...you haven't told me the whereabouts of those people yet?"
"There's no trace of that group of people. They must have heard the news in advance and ran as far away as possible. But I have found someone who can decipher the ancient text for that book, and he will translate it into words we can understand and send it to us in a few days." Rong Zhen did not return empty-handed these days. He finally made some progress.
"That's great. It would be great if we can crack the code then. How's the matter of Bai Fuling?" Gu Yunru took his arm and asked incessantly, as if she wanted to resolve everything overnight. Gu Yunru knew that it was impossible to do so, but it was better than sitting at home without any progress.
"Don't worry, I have already had the herbs you mentioned prepared. The degree of mutation of the Gu people is different, so we have to distinguish them when the time comes and then feed them the medicinal food."
"Well, that's what we have to do! By the way, the physical fitness of those children is not very good, so I have to make more of these medicinal dishes for them when the time comes." Gu Yunru felt a little proud when she thought of so many children who needed to be saved.
The next morning, Xiangping had already put on an apron and was busy in the kitchen. Thinking of the medicinal stewed pig's trotters that Gu Yunru had made that day, he started practicing early in the morning.
"It smells so good, Miss Xiangping, what are you busy with?!" After smelling the aroma, the bridesmaid came over happily. She didn't expect to have pig's trotters to eat so early in the morning. Her face was filled with wrinkles from smiling.
"Xi Niang, how about trying this medicinal stewed pig's trotter?" Xiang Ping loves to learn new things, especially the combination of medicinal diet and food proposed by Gu Yunru, and he studies and practices it every day.
"It tastes good, very flavorful!" The bridesmaid gave a thumbs up and praised her. Xiangping is a smart girl and she can cook any dish just by seeing it once.
"As long as the bride likes it."
The bridesmaid was watching him eagerly, as if she wanted to say something but hesitated. Xiangping stopped what he was doing and blinked at her blankly.
"What's wrong? Xi Niang, do you have anything else to say?" Xiang Ping wiped his wet hands and walked to Xi Niang. Xi Niang smiled at him awkwardly, "Xiang Ping girl, I heard that this medicinal diet can nourish the body. And I heard a blind fortune teller in the dilapidated temple in the east said that combining medicinal diet can nourish women's bodies and make them pregnant no matter how old they are. Is this true or false?"
I didn’t expect that the bridesmaid still wanted to have a son at such an old age.
Xiangping's face was full of dissatisfaction and surprise, and he didn't know what to say. Xiniang stealthily pulled him in a little further.
"Girl, you must not tell the boss about this. If he finds out, he will probably scold me again. I'm only 42 years old this year, so I'm not too old, right?" The bridesmaid looked at Xiangping eagerly, hoping that Xiangping could fulfill her little wish. If she could get pregnant at this old age, it would be like an old clam giving birth to a pearl.
"Xi Niang, this is no joke. Do you really want to get pregnant?" Xiang Ping didn't react for a long time and had to confirm it again.
"Of course. Mazi and I have been married for so many years. If we hadn't missed the right opportunity, we would have had many children. We are both getting older and older, and we just want to have someone to rely on and care for in the future." The matchmaker talked about what she and Mazi had experienced, and she couldn't help crying again. Xiangping couldn't stand seeing women cry the most.
"Okay, okay, Xi Niang, I promise you!" Xiang Ping looked at Xi Niang who was so eager to get pregnant, so he had to promise her. This combination of medicinal food can nourish his body, so he said, "There are several ways to steam medicinal food, including steaming with wrapping, sealing, buckling, and clear steaming. I have to teach students in the future, so it is impossible for me to serve you every meal. I will only teach you the method. Remember to take the seasoning mixed with medicinal food every day in the future."
"Don't worry, I will remember it well!" The bridesmaid looked at her with a smile. Seeing that she had prepared the red dates and pork elbow, she did it herself and prepared the pork elbow, sprouts, cooking wine and other seasonings. She washed the pork elbow and the hairy melon herself, then steamed it and drained the water.
Xiangping lifted the steamer and put all the bowls containing pork elbows into the steamer. After about two incense sticks of time, he used the plate buckle to turn the steaming bowls over and put them into the plate.
"What a nice smell! This steamed pork elbow with red dates! Can it really help me get pregnant?" When the bridesmaid smelled this steamed pork elbow with red dates, her saliva couldn't be restrained and her eyes were full of halos.
"What are you thinking about? Xi Niang, these medicinal cooking methods are for you to take them every day until you become pregnant. You can stop taking them only when you are pregnant. When you are pregnant, you should not take anything too nutritious. You should eat lighter food."
Xiangping's words made perfect sense, and Xiniang kept every word of her in mind, for fear of any mistakes.
"This steamed pork elbow with red dates can regulate the deficiency of qi and blood, replenish qi and promote salivation and treat malnutrition." Xiangping introduced the effects of this dish to her word by word, and Xiniang ate up the steamed pork elbow with red dates without saying a word.
That day, Gu Yunru took Xue'er to the government office and saw many prisoners being arrested, shouting that they were innocent. Xue'er had never seen such a scene before, so she was inevitably frightened.

"You don't have to be afraid, Xue'er. These people have done something wrong and are being arrested and reformed. They will only be released when they come to their senses one day."
"Yeah." Xue'er nodded reluctantly and came to the backyard, where she saw Shu'er busy in the empty kitchen.
"Shu'er." Gu Yunru called her softly, and Shu'er finally reacted.
"Aunt, now that you are here, come and try this dish of red dates and peas that I made." Shu'er couldn't wait to practice with the recipe. After she finally finished the dish, she was about to grab a few people to taste it, but when the servants heard that she had made some medicinal dishes, they ran away without a trace.
"Are we here at the wrong time?" Gu Yunru called and looked at Xue'er who was standing beside her. She had come to see how Ji Heng was doing, but she didn't expect to be caught by Shu'er, who forced them to drink something like red dates boiled peas.
