Those who received the eye warning knew that they had said something wrong and stopped complaining.
After Lu Mingxian left, Doctor Mo came again. Now there was only one Doctor Mo in the palace. The other one had been locked up as a lunatic since he went crazy and wanted to kill Mo Ninghai last time. No one had seen him since then. Who cared whether he was dead or alive?
After Doctor Mo came to take the Queen Mother's pulse, he said that her condition had improved, prescribed some medicine for her, and then left.
Jin Suting was puzzled. Although she was seriously ill, the dosage of the medicine was too much.
Not only do you have to take the medicine before and after meals, you also have to drink it early in the morning on an empty stomach, before taking a bath and before going to bed, and even after taking the medicine and going out to bask in the sun at noon when the sun is at its strongest. It is said that this is for easier absorption and digestion.
Jin Suting had never heard of this before. When she raised the question, the Queen Mother said that it might be a unique folk remedy.
Doctor Mo originally entered the palace to treat the Queen Mother because of his reputation as a folk miracle doctor, but Jin Suting was stubborn. Helan Rui thought about medicine and went back to talk to him.
Because Helan Ruizhe told her last time that the Queen Mother didn't have much time left, she often came to the palace to see the Queen Mother in between practicing painting and playing chess, cooking for her, telling jokes to keep her entertained, and she was very happy.
Jin Suting has been without a grandmother since childhood. Although the Queen Mother is not that kind, she is at least a grandmother. Moreover, the relationship between the Queen Mother and Jin Suting has been rapidly heating up in recent days.
Sometimes Shi Qingmiao and Si Shuo would come to see the Queen Mother. Changding Palace was far away, so they came together. Ever since Si Shuo said that he would return to Simu Kingdom on June 15th, Shi Qingmiao was afraid of losing this good friend and stayed with him all day long.
Helan Minzhi didn't know what was happening here. She was sick and had been lying in bed for three days. Doctor Mo said it was a cold.
He then became even more isolated from the world, neither leaving the palace nor paying his respects to the Queen Mother.
Helan Ruizhe often came here as soon as the court was over, one to report the state affairs to the Queen Mother, and the other was because he was worried about Jin Suting being here.
What’s amazing is that Helan Yinsheng also came to see the Queen Mother, bringing Yu Qinglan with him. This is something you never see in your life.
But after Yu Qinglan came a few times and saw that the Queen Mother was not as loving and enthusiastic towards her as before, she gradually stopped coming.
At this moment, Helan Ruizhe had just come back from court. Shi Qingmiao took the snacks that Jin Suting had just made and fed them to the Queen Mother. Si Shuo was watching quietly on the side. It was quite harmonious.
"Brother!" Shi Qingmiao had no manners in front of acquaintances and close friends. She called out crisply to Helan Ruizhe who had just stepped into Fengluan Palace.
Jin Suting looked over at the direction of the voice, her eyes filled with joy. Si Shuo nodded lightly. He didn't need to be polite, as they were not in a relationship of monarch and subject.
The Queen Mother smiled and waved to Helan Ruizhe, "Come here and have some snacks."
The man walked straight to Jin Suting and sat down next to her, saying lightly, "I don't want to eat," also with a smile.
The Queen Mother was not annoyed and praised Jin Suting's cooking skills generously, "Su'er's cooking skills are becoming more and more exquisite. The dim sum can be made so uniquely, tenderly and deliciously."
Jin Suting made a few rabbit molds when she was free, and made the snacks into the shape of rabbits. They were so cute that people couldn't help but eat them.
She was quite modest. "You're too kind, Queen Mother. I just studied it in my spare time. It's not really a craft."
The Queen Mother smiled heartily, as if she had never been sick before. She was as cheerful as the carefree princess she used to be. If it weren't for the gray hair on her temples, you really wouldn't know she was fifty years old. "A Rui, look at your wife. Don't be so fickle all the time. If you have nothing to do, learn some of these things. Don't just eat and do nothing."
If it were in the past, how could the Queen Mother make such remarks? She would have wished that Helan Ruizhe would spend twelve hours a day in the training ground and would not stop until he had mastered martial arts that were invincible in the world. Perhaps it was because she had grown old and been sick that she had become more open-minded about many things and no longer had such a strong obsession with fighting and killing.
Helan Ruizhe glanced at Jin Suting with a smile and replied to the Queen Mother, "I am learning."
He has learned how to make red bean and barley porridge, preserved egg and lean meat porridge, lotus root and pork ribs porridge. Recently, he has been learning how to make sweet and sour pork ribs, but he feels a little bit tired.
But he would not say these things out loud. Jin Suting had already mocked him privately for being able to only cook porridge and nothing else. How could he bring these up again and let the Queen Mother laugh at him?
"Then your cooking skills are definitely not as good as Su'er's." The Queen Mother was determined to favor this, causing Shi Qingmiao to laugh loudly while stuffing snacks into her mouth and almost choking.
Si Shuo and Queen Mother simultaneously warned her from both sides: "Eat slowly."
But Si Shuo continued with the second half of the sentence, "Be careful not to choke again."
The Queen Mother gave Si Shuo a look as usual. Si Shuo pretended to know nothing and calmly handed Shi Qingmiao a cup of tea. Shi Qingmiao had stuffed the snack in her mouth and swallowed it, but she was reluctant to eat it. It happened that Si Shuo's cup of water saved her. She drank it all in two gulps. It felt so good!
"Drink slowly." They said in unison again. It was really awkward at this moment. The Queen Mother glared at Si Shuo fiercely.
Jin Suting was too embarrassed to hold back her laughter. Seeing that the two men were looking at her again, she took a piece of dessert and stuffed it into her mouth, pretending that she saw nothing.
Shi Qingmiao finished her tea and broke the awkward atmosphere, blabbering, "The prince is getting married on the 11th. Can we leave the palace?"
When she said "we", a large part of it referred to "me", and this "we" was referring to someone she loved.
On that day, the Queen Mother should be present in person. It was the marriage she had arranged, and Helan Yinsheng had lost his parents, so she was the only one who went.
It should be said that everyone in the Helan family should be present, and Helan Minzhi should also go, if her illness has been cured by then.
