Chapter 194 Physical Recovery
After Xiaowu left, half an hour later, Jiang Hongyu went to the beach to take a look.
There were quite a few people on the beach, lined up in two lines. Xiao Wu had a stern face and sat at the table with Ye Lang. Ye Lang was writing something on a piece of paper as he listened to the people who came to register talk about their pearl diving experiences.
Ye Wu helped a few constables maintain order at the back of the team and answered everyone's questions from time to time.
Jiang Hongyu looked at it for a while, thought it was okay, and turned and left.
Xiao Wu happened to see his back, but he couldn't leave for a while. His expression became more serious, and the person who was speaking began to stutter: "I've been in the sea for five years..."
Jiang Hongyu went to the village to exchange for a few pieces of bacon and a basket of eggs, and sent them to the clan leader's house, handing them to Aunt Guilan: "Aunt, let Master Cui eat at your house from now on. He asked me to bring these things. If they are finished, you can add more first, and I will send them back later."
Aunt Guilan pushed it out: "We have all these things at home."
Jiang Hongyu insisted on putting it down: "Master Cui is a very delicate eater. I will send some refined rice and flour over tomorrow. Then I will let Cousin Lang accompany him. The two of them can talk more."
Aunt Guilan's face was full of smiles: "We have fine rice and flour at home, so you don't need to bring it over. I promise not to treat Master Cui unfairly."
Her son can have dinner with Master Cui, and the benefit is not just eating, it is a chance to get close to Master Cui. Since Jiang Hongyu can give this opportunity to her family, she will definitely do her best.
"Don't worry, niece-in-law. When your cousin Lang becomes successful in the future, he won't forget your support." Aunt Guilan whispered as she saw Jiang Hongyu off. "If you need anything in the future, just come to me and I'll definitely take care of it for you."
Jiang Hongyu smiled. The main reason he chose Ye Lang's house was that his family was small and he had more freedom in eating. Ye Wu always ate at his uncle's house, so he would feel uncomfortable eating at his house.
He then went to the village chief's house again and left five taels of silver, asking him to entertain the four constables who came with Xiaowu. The village chief happily agreed.
After everything was arranged, Jiang Hongyu went straight home to pick up Ye Mingzhu, and the two returned to town.
Xiaowu went to Jiang's house excitedly at noon. When he saw the locked door, he was so scared that smoke seemed to come out of his head. When Ye Lang came to invite him, his face was as sour as it could be. It was not until Aunt Guilan brought the dishes and said that Jiang Hongyu had specially brought meat and eggs, and that she would send fine rice and flour tomorrow, that his face looked much better.
Ye Lang had been observing Xiao Wu's expression. Seeing that his face had relaxed, he said, "Hong Yu was anxious to go back because something happened. Fortunately, he will be back tomorrow."
Xiaowu thought about it and realized that was right. He would find a reason to keep him tomorrow.
Xiao Wu, who had figured it out, also regained his appetite. He took a bite of the dish and thought it tasted okay. He asked Ye Lang to sit down and eat with him.
Ye Lang talked about some interesting things during his previous patrols, and Xiao Wu occasionally asked a question. Only then did Aunt Guilan, who had been listening outside the house, feel relieved.
Jiang Hongyu and his friends returned to their home in the town. Lao Hu came to open the door. Jiang Hongyu gave him two taels of silver and asked him to go to the grain store to buy some fine rice and flour. Lao Hu agreed readily, found a cloth bag and went.
They returned to the backyard and saw Yunniang helping Aunt Jiang make clothes while Ye Yunan was writing beside them.
"Brother Yu is back?" Yunniang was the first to notice the two of them and stood up to salute.
Jiang Hongyu nodded. Ye Mingzhu noticed that Yunniang's complexion looked better than when she first arrived, so she looked at her again.
After Yunniang left, Aunt Jiang first asked about the situation in the village. When she knew everything was going well, she pointed to the chair next to her and said, "Mingzhu, sit down. I'll take your pulse."
Ye Mingzhu sat down obediently: "Mom, I've been fine recently and have been taking medicine."
"Well, I know you are a good boy. Only if you take medicine on time can you get better." Aunt Jiang looked up at Jiang Hongyu.
Jiang Hongyu looked to the side. He was already an adult and didn't want to be scolded by his mother. Besides, he had a good recovery ability, so it didn't matter if he didn't take medicine.
Aunt Jiang rolled her eyes at him again and concentrated on taking Ye Mingzhu's pulse. After a moment, her eyes were filled with surprise, and then she frowned.
Jiang Hongyu's heart was lifted: "Mom?"
"Quiet." Aunt Jiang scolded, and Jiang Hongyu immediately shut up.
Aunt Jiang took Ye Mingzhu's pulse for half an hour. Ye Mingzhu, who had originally thought she was fine, was in a state of panic. Could it be that her illness had worsened? But she had clearly felt fine recently.
Jiang Hongyu clenched his fists and placed them tightly on both sides of his body.
Aunt Jiang put away the pulse pillow with doubt in her eyes. When she looked up, she saw that the two of them were worried. She quickly waved her hand and said, "Mingzhu is in good health."
Jiang Hongyu and Ye Mingzhu both breathed a sigh of relief. Jiang Hongyu complained, "Mom, Mingzhu is fine, so why did you take her pulse for so long?"
"I'm surprised Mingzhu recovered so quickly. It's only been a short time, and Mingzhu's cold has improved so much. Normally, it would take at least a year or two for a cold to ease, but in just a few months, Mingzhu has recovered better than others who take half a year."
Aunt Jiang carefully considered the medicines she had been using for Ye Mingzhu during this period, and found no changes from before. Could it be that the quality of the medicines she had been using during this period was better?
Ye Mingzhu thought it was because of the pearl in her body, but she couldn't say it, so she could only change the subject: "I think it's because of my mother's good medical skills. Yunniang has only been back for two days, and her complexion has improved a lot."
Aunt Jiang couldn't figure out the reason either, so she answered Ye Mingzhu's question first: "Yunniang has been eating well these past two days and is relaxed, so her illness will naturally heal faster."
Jiang Hongyu didn't care about Yunniang's condition, he just wanted to know how Ye Mingzhu was recovering.
Aunt Jiang glanced at him and said, "Mingzhu's body has recovered well, but she has had a cold after all, so she still needs to take good care of herself."
Jiang Hongyu nodded: "Mom, please tell me what Mingzhu needs to eat. I will buy it tomorrow."
Aunt Jiang pondered for a moment and said, "Mingzhu's body has recovered well. See if you can buy some bird's nest. It's better for Mingzhu's body."
Jiang Hongyu didn't hesitate at all: "Okay, I'll find a way to buy more tomorrow, so that mom can eat it too."
Aunt Jiang waved her hand indifferently: "I'm old, it doesn't matter whether I eat it or not. Just remember to buy it for Mingzhu."
"We're not short of money. Let Brother Yu go buy some and we can eat together." Ye Mingzhu whispered in Aunt Jiang's ear, "Mom, Brother Yu and I have money. You don't have to worry."
Aunt Jiang patted her hands with a smile on her face: "Okay, mother knows you are filial."
Jiang Hongyu watched the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law talking, and his expression was relaxed.
At this time, Yunniang came in with a note, saying that it was sent by the Lin family next door, and they were planning to visit tomorrow.
Ye Mingzhu smiled and said, "I didn't expect Sister Lin to actually post a message for me. Okay, go tell the person who's coming that we'll be waiting for Sister Lin at home tomorrow."
