After Tian Yu finished speaking, she led the group down into the field. Grandma Gouzi was anxious, but she couldn't dissuade her. Thinking about it, she realized that it was no use for Gouzi to farm the land by himself. She turned around and went back to prepare some hot water for them, which was the only thing she could still do.
After several busy days, the rice seedlings were finally planted according to Tian Yu's requirements. The day after they were planted, a thunderstorm broke out in the afternoon, and the weather was getting hotter and hotter. Tian Yu was writing in her room, with her collar open and her skirt sleeves rolled up. Qiu Ju and Lü Liu were used to Tian Yu's behavior. However, Li Xingyun, who came in, immediately covered his eyes and stepped back, coughing twice and saying, "How can a woman be so unladylike?"
"It's so hot, what's wrong with me relaxing in my room for a bit?" Tian Yu said, straightening her clothes.
“You’re both women, but your two maids are more knowledgeable and reasonable than you,” Li Xingyun said as she went back inside with Qiuju’s help.
“You’re so well-mannered, yet you’re bundled up in layers of clothing in this heat. Who’s going to look at you? Aren’t you afraid of getting heat rash?” Tian Yu said to Li Xingyun with a puzzled look.
"Don't look at me like that, I don't have prickly heat."
"Impossible, wouldn't you be hot wearing so much?"
"Not hot! I'm naturally prone to feeling cold."
"Naturally cold-sensitive? I've always been puzzled as to how you injured your leg. With your and your father's medical skills, how could they not have cured it?"
"This is my business, you don't need to know," Li Xingyun said, his expression changing slightly.
"Okay, if you don't want to talk about it, then pretend I didn't ask. What did you want to talk to me about?" Tian Yu changed the subject when she saw that he didn't want to talk about it.
A thunderstorm was raging outside, and it felt even hotter inside. Tian Yu said this as she habitually pulled open her collar and rolled up her sleeves, preparing to continue writing.
"Can you be a little more careful!" Li Xingyun said, turning his eyes away.
"What are you looking at? I didn't do anything. Did you see anything?" Tian Yu looked at herself. There was nothing excessive. She hadn't revealed anything she shouldn't have. She was covered up completely.
"Do other people know that you are like this?"
"I don't know if they know or not."
"They definitely don't know. If they saw you like this, who would want you?"
"Forget it, three-legged toads are hard to find, but two-legged men are everywhere. One more won't make a difference. If you have nothing else to do, hurry back and study your medicine. I have things to do." Tian Yu waved her hand impatiently.
"The incense you requested has been prepared. Go and pick it up yourself!"
"It's done! So fast! Qiuju, go get it and let me see it."
"Yes, madam."
Looking at the incense that Li Xingyun had made according to her request on the table, Tian Yu could already feel the money beckoning to her. She tried them one by one and felt they were all good, and the smell was much better.
Tian Yu picked up a bottle and ran to Li Xingyun's door, saying, "Brother! Are you there?"
"What's up?"
"Have you written down the process and method of making this?"
"Don't worry, I've already written it."
"May I go in first?"
"I told you you weren't allowed to come in."
Tian Yu pouted. She remembered the last time she went in and knocked over a bottle of his medicine, he flew into a rage and told her that she was never allowed to enter his room again unless he agreed.
"Alright then, how much of this did you do?"
Five bottles of each.
"Hmm, a little less, but it's still okay."
You should be content!
"I'm going to the county town in a few days. Would you like to come back with me?"
"No need, just bring me a few things."
"Okay, thanks bro!"
It was still raining at dusk, and the rice seedlings in the fields were no longer visible. Tian Yu led Ji Feng to organize people to dig ditches to drain the water. Fortunately, the rain stopped when it got dark.
When Tian Yu returned to her room and changed her clothes, Qiu Ju brought her a bowl of ginger soup and said, "Madam, please drink this ginger soup quickly."
"You even prepared ginger soup?"
"It was Dr. Li who asked us to prepare this, and he even added a few medicinal herbs!"
"Really! My brother is the best. Even if he doesn't say it, he still thinks about his little sister. It's not a waste to call him brother."
"Yes, Dr. Li is usually not very talkative, but he takes good care of Madam."
"Yes, send a bowl to Jifeng too."
"Don't worry, Madam, the green willow has already been sent."
"Green Willow!? That's progress!"
Outside the west wing, in the gust of wind, Green Willow held a bowl of ginger soup, pondering how to speak. After hesitating for a long time, she finally reached out and knocked on the door. A voice came from inside: "Who is it?"
"I... Madam asked me to bring you a bowl of ginger soup," Green Willow stammered.
The door opened, and Jifeng was still dressed. Lvliu glanced at him, blushed, lowered her head, and carried the bowl to the table inside the room. Then, she quickly left with her head down and small steps. As Jifeng was about to close the door, Lvliu turned back and said, "Drink it while it's hot; it won't be effective if it gets cold."
Jifeng closed the door without saying a word, while Lvliu pouted and said, "She always has that long face, she's so hard to please." Then she stormed off.
When Tian Yu saw that Lvliu had returned looking unhappy, she asked, "What's wrong? Who made Lvliu unhappy?"
"It's all because of that Gale. Why does Madam have to try so hard to please him? Look at him! I brought him ginger soup, and he didn't even say thank you."
"Really? Although Gale is usually not very talkative, he is very polite. Did you offend him in some way again?"
"No, ever since you spoke to me last time, I have taken good care of him and have not done anything excessive to him."
"What's wrong with Jifeng?" Tian Yu asked, looking at Qiu Ju and then at Lv Liu.
"Madam, you didn't see what he looked like just now! Who! Then he opened the door and stood in front of it with a look of disgust on his face." Green Willow said, while imitating Gale's expression.
