Jiang Rong picked up the teacup and drank it tremblingly.
After that, Suqianji didn't say anything else.
Everyone else was confused, only Jiang Yao was surprised.
Did Su Qianji see me add something to Jiang Rong's cup? Otherwise, why would he only ask Jiang Rong to drink tea?
In the end, she still couldn't figure out why Su Qianji did this. In the end, she could only blame it on the fact that Su Qianji was unhappy with Jiang Rong and deliberately scared him.
After a cup of tea and a few rounds of conversation, Su Qianji said he wanted to go for a walk in the mansion garden, but as long as Lang Qi was with him, Jiang Yao would be free.
This was a good opportunity for her, so she grabbed her small bag and ran to Jiang Ao's residence.
"What do you think is Master Su's intention in bringing Yao'er back with him?"
Hearing Jiang Ao mention him in the house, Jiang Yao withdrew his hand that was about to knock on the door and stood quietly at the door listening.
"Old Master, you may really be overthinking it. Didn't Mr. Su say he was just passing by?"
This is the voice of Butler Liu.
After Butler Liu finished speaking, Jiang Ao only let out a deep sigh.
"Alas, how can I not think about it? In the year that Master Su has been in Zhao State, he has never visited any other ministers' homes. The Jiang family is the first mansion he has set foot in. Who knows what kind of gossip will spread in Jincheng tomorrow."
"The three eldest daughters of our Jiang family are all in Feiyan Palace. It is understandable that Master Su values the Jiang family. This is a gift."
"But I'm afraid that if this gift is too much, it will backfire."
"How can this be reversed?"
"Yao'er serves Master Su, but she's not a saint. What will she do when Master Su leaves? If the emperor doesn't arrange a marriage for her, she'll be laughed at by the people of Jincheng. The more low-key Master Su is towards the Jiang family, the less attention Yao'er will receive in the future, and it will be easier for me to find a husband for her."
After all, Jiang Ao was most worried about Jiang Yao.
Because she was just a maid, and no emperor had ever arranged a marriage for a maid, so it was best for Jiang Yao not to be noticed and let everyone forget about her. In the end, when Su Qianji passed away, Jiang Yao would still be Jiang Yao, and no one would make too much of the fact that she was Su Qianji's maid.
Jiang Yao's eyes turned red when she heard this. Jiang Ao treated her really well.
"Who's outside?"
Butler Liu heard the noise and asked in a cold voice.
"Grandpa, it's me."
It was Jiang Ao who opened the door. As soon as he saw Jiang Yao, his face was full of smiles.
"Why is Yao'er here?"
Jiang Yao sniffed, hiding his emotions so as not to worry Jiang Ao.
She grabbed the small bag she was carrying and walked inside: "Grandpa, you forgot, I promised to treat your knee."
"This matter."
Obviously Jiang Ao didn't take her words to heart, but he was still very happy to hear her say that, and his face was full of smiles.
"My daughter Yao'er is thinking about me. I feel so happy."
"Grandpa, please sit down."
"Okay, Grandpa, sit down." After Jiang Ao sat down, he suddenly thought of something and asked nervously, "Where is Master Su?"
"Master Su asked Master Langqi to follow him. Now that I'm fine, I'll come and treat Grandpa's knee."
Jiang Yao took out a needle bag and several bottles of medicine from his small pocket.
Seeing that she was in good shape, Jiang Ao didn't interrupt her and just let her go.
"Grandpa, do your knees hurt more on rainy days?"
"Yes, this knee starts to ache, and it means it's going to rain."
Jiang Yao nodded, then took out a silver needle and said, "Grandpa, your knee needs acupuncture and moxibustion, and then apply some medicine. It will slowly get better. Although it won't be as good as before, it won't hurt so much in the future."
After all, Jiang Ao is old and his recovery ability is not as good as that of young people. If he delays any longer, his leg will probably become lame.
But in her hands, it definitely won't be lame.
"Okay, you can treat it for me, I will listen to you."
Jiang Yao took out the silver needles skillfully and slowly placed them on Jiang Ao's knees, carefully placing each one.
Butler Liu and Jiang Ao looked at each other in surprise. They had thought Jiang Yao was just pretending, but they didn't expect him to be so professional and look like a real doctor.
"Grandpa, it might sting a little later, please bear with it."
"Okay." Jiang Ao's curiosity was focused on the bottle in Jiang Yao's hand: "Girl, what is this?"
"Medication for arthritis. I made it myself."
"Do you really know medicine?"
"Didn't I tell Grandpa that I read some medical books when I was bored at home, so I remembered some of it."
"Second Miss, your technique doesn't seem like someone who only knows a few. I've seen doctors out there who can't place a needle as firmly as you can."
"That means I'm a good student."
Jiang Ao looked at the playful and lively Jiang Yao with a look of relief.
"Girl, have you been doing well in Feiyan Palace these days?"
"It's great. I eat well and sleep well. Master Su is also very good to me."
In fact, the real situation is that she can't eat or sleep well, and Su Qianji's daily annoyance has made her mentally exhausted.
But now she also understood that it was best to report good news rather than bad news to the relatives who cared about her, so as not to make Jiang Ao worry.
"But Grandpa, why do you look thinner?"
"Grandpa, I've obviously gained weight."
She could feel it herself. When she was in Feiyan Palace, she ate with Su Qianji every day. Although the taste was very bland, they were all high-nutrition and high-protein foods, so she was obviously fat.
"It's better to be a little fatter. You're too thin." Jiang Ao frowned and stared at his knees, saying, "It really hurts."
"The medicine needs to be transmitted to the joints through the silver needles, so there will be some stinging. Grandpa, just bear with it, it won't last long."
"Don't worry, Grandpa has lived for more than 60 years, he's not afraid of this little pain."
Jiang Yao didn't dare to be careless at all. Medicines and needles should not be used randomly. Although she had never made a mistake, she was extra careful because she was showing it to Jiang Ao.
"Girl, when you were in Feiyan Palace, did your eldest sister and third sister ever give you any trouble?"
Jiang Yao paused and was silent for a moment: "No."
She chose to conceal it, not wanting Jiang Ao to worry about these things. She didn't care about those people, and would take action if they were provoked, so there was no need for Jiang Ao to uphold justice for her.
"Hey, girl, you've really grown up. In the past, when they wanted to bully you, you would have come to Grandpa crying and shouting. Now you have learned to hide it from Grandpa." Jiang Ao lowered his head and smiled and asked, "Girl, are you afraid that Grandpa will worry so you don't tell me?"
"Grandpa, I'm grown up now and can solve problems on my own. I'm not a child anymore. How can I always look for adults when I have problems?"
Jiang Ao was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter: "Hahahaha, Yao'er is right, you have grown up, and you can handle many things by yourself."
His tone suddenly changed, becoming serious and earnest: "If Shu'er and Xing'er bully you, don't endure it if you can fight back. Don't think about Grandpa. Grandpa is old and will leave sooner or later. You must make yourself strong."
Jiang Yao's nose felt sore instantly, and he said in a sullen tone, "Grandpa will live to be a hundred years old."
"Even if you live to be a hundred, you still have to die, Yao'er. Remember what Grandpa told you. You are different from Shu'er and Xing'er. If Grandpa is gone, there will be no one to protect you. So you have to be sensible and learn to take care of and protect yourself. Don't let yourself suffer. Remember?"
