Chapter 108: The food in other people’s pots is the best
Because of her status, Xu Rongrong did not go directly back to the Luo family compound after coming down from Yushan Mountain.
Instead, he went to the government office to meet the "County Lady".
Wen Yao was so anxious that she was running around in circles in the back office, and Magistrate Wu kept trying to comfort her.
Soon, the bailiff who brought the news ran in and said, "Your Excellency, the person has been found."
Wen Yao ran out of the back court!
When she saw Xu Rongrong, her tears instantly welled up and she threw herself into her young lady's arms.
Onlookers: "..."
I didn't expect that this county lady would have such a temper.
Xu Rongrong didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She raised her hand to ruffle Wen Yao's hair and whispered, "So many people are watching. You are the county lady now."
Wen Yao finally came to her senses and sobbed, "I...I know."
After saying that, she wiped away her tears.
Magistrate Wu, who had just come with her to the front yamen, saw this and advised, "Don't be surprised, County Lady. Look, this man has returned safely, hasn't he? Please come to the back yamen and rest with him."
Wen Yao saw that his young lady's face and the back of her hands were covered with small wounds, and she must have to recuperate in the government office.
So she nodded and said, "Thank you, Magistrate Wu, to find us a clean yard."
"Okay, okay!" The prefect, Wu Mingshi, agreed repeatedly.
Xu Rongrong said, "The county lady's guard is also seriously injured. Sir Wu, please find a place for him to be treated." The "guard" she was referring to was naturally Mu Rong.
He was facing sideways at the moment, so Magistrate Wu couldn't see him clearly, but since he was the county lord's man, he naturally had to be served!
Next to the Yuzhou government office was an elegant residence with three courtyards, where Magistrate Wu settled them.
Xu Rongrong was extremely tired and sleepy at this moment, but she was holding on with all her strength.
Wen Yao saw that she was still holding the medicine bag tightly, and he understood.
She ordered someone to invite Doctor Shu.
After a while, Shu Qing entered the elegant residence.
When he saw Xu Rongrong, his face fell: "Are you injured?"
Xu Rongrong smiled and said, "No problem!"
As she spoke, she handed over the medicine bag. Before she could speak, Shu Qing asked, "Is your arm dislocated?"
Xu Rongrong: "..." Shu Qing's eyes were indeed vicious.
She could only say, "I fell off the cliff last night, but the Marquis has already caught it for me, so I'm fine."
Shu Qing frowned: "Whether it's serious or not, only I, the doctor, can tell you!"
He glared at Xu Rongrong and said, "Sit down!"
The sudden strong aura made it hard for Xu Rongrong to refuse for a moment, and it was obvious that the doctor in front of her was not interested in the medicine bag she handed over, so she had to sit down obediently.
Shu Qing carefully felt her pulse and muttered, "You haven't recovered yet, and you're being tossed up and down like this!"
Looking at his expression, Xu Rongrong knew that she was fine.
She smiled and said, "Doctor Shu, can you take a look at the goodies I brought back now?"
Shu Qing grabbed it and squinted his eyes as he untied the straps that bound the medicine bag. "It really is Moon Grass!" Xu Rongrong asked in confusion, "Why aren't you surprised at all?"
Wen Yao smiled and said, "Brother Chu said last night that the thing that made you work so hard to pick it must be the Moonlight Grass that can alleviate the epidemic."
Shu Qing was still puzzled: "But why did this medicine from the Western Regions appear in Yuzhou City?"
"I'm completely baffled. Perhaps the person who poisoned the city brought the Moonlight Grass seeds along with them when they transplanted the 'evil flower'. Regardless, with the Moonlight Grass, we can be sure the disease won't spread any further."
Shu Qing nodded upon hearing this. "Indeed. This morning's number of patients has doubled compared to yesterday. If this continues, it will definitely be treated as an epidemic. By then, not only will the people of this city, but even the entire Jiangnan Road will be flooded with blood."
Xu Rongrong remained silent. Wasn't this exactly the scene from her previous life?
Fortunately, there was now an antidote. With a medical expert like Doctor Shu, she no longer had to worry. "I'll be in your care from now on."
Doctor Shu smiled and shook his head: "With so many helpers, I naturally can't be tired."
Xu Rongrong was overjoyed when she heard this: "Is it the people from the capital who have arrived?"
"Just as Miss expected, Brother Luo Chen sent over a dozen doctors specializing in epidemic diseases, and they entered the city one after another yesterday."
Finally, no worries.
After seeing off Doctor Shu, Xu Rongrong went into the room and fell asleep.
Wen Yao took off his young lady's shoes and socks with heartache, put her feet on his legs and kneaded them gently.
……
Xu Rongrong slept very comfortably this time.
Despite having experienced something as terrifying as falling off a cliff, the usual fears she'd experienced in the past didn't appear in her dreams. As the sun set and lights were turned on everywhere, she didn't wake up.
He didn't wake up until he felt hungry.
From last night till now, she had only eaten a few birds caught by Mu Rong last night. When she woke up now, she was naturally extremely hungry.
Before leaving, Doctor Shu asked Wen Yao to prepare some medicinal food and keep it warm on the stove.
Seeing Xu Rongrong wanted to eat it, she quickly took it out.
Xu Rongrong took two bites, breathed a sigh of relief, and asked, "How's the situation with the Marquis?"
Seeing her young lady asking about it, Wen Yao quickly said, "Doctor Shu re-bandaged the Marquis's wound. Since the tendons and veins were not damaged, he applied the blood-drying grass that the young lady brought."
Thinking of the shocking wound, Xu Rongrong nodded without saying anything more.
After a while, she put down the spoon in her hand and instructed, "His injury was caused by me after all. Send him some of the medicine I developed a few days ago, and tell him not to touch water for the next few days."
Wen Yao smiled and responded loudly.
It seems that the Marquis’ efforts these days have not been in vain!
In the next room, Mu Rong ignored the seven or eight porcelain vases in front of him and only looked at Wen Yao: "How is she now?"
Wen Yao thought of his young lady's mouth filled with medicinal food and said with a smile, "My Lord, the young lady is feeling much better now after a good sleep and is enjoying the medicinal food in her room."
After she finished speaking, she picked up the food box and took out a small porcelain bowl from it: "My lady, you are eating well. Let me bring some to the Marquis as well."
This was naturally not Xu Rongrong's instruction, but the Marquis risked his life to save his own young lady after all, so Wen Yao acted on his own initiative.
Who told her to be the "County Lady" now?
Mu Rong's eyes lit up, but his expression remained calm: "In that case, I will try it." Because Mu Ai was injured, it was Mu Lu who was serving Mu Rong.
He looked at his master's pretentious expression and curled his lips: "I have never looked down upon the medicinal food in my own house, but today I am really interested in it! It is true that the food in other people's pots is delicious."
Also, what Yi Changshi said is right.
The Marquis's heart was taken away by the county lord!
