Ji Ling Xue's lips twitched, Bai Mo was getting better and better at talking, the fire in her heart burned a little less, maybe it was good Bai Mo came.
Returning to the small courtyard, Bai Mo took Xiao Xiang's pulse, his expression grave, making Ji Ling Xue standing to the side restless.
Ji Ling Xue said: "How is it?"
Bai Mo retracted his hand, making a please gesture, the two walked out into the courtyard.
Xiao Xiang looked at her chubby hand, then watched Ji Ling Xue and Bai Mo walk away, not sure why they needed to speak in private.
The other side, Xiao Mo was hugging Xiao Yi Chen's thigh and telling him what happened that afternoon, putting emphasis on how arrogant and despotic the people from the Qian family were, how him and Xiao Xiang were bullied.
Xiao Yi Chen patted Xiao Mo's shoulder in comfort: "It's in the past, don't be sad."
Xiao Mo curled his lips: "He's only the grandson of a landlord, what's so great about it, using their position to bully people, they're only bullying us because we're outsiders without status?"
Xiao Yi Chen's face blackened, it was joke, how respectable was Xiao Yi Chen, his son and daughter were a prince and princess, he didn't want those titles so he threw them away.
Xiao Yi Chen rubbed Xiao Mo's head, "Mo Mo, daddy won't allow anyone to bully you."
That night, Xiao Yi Chen worked hard to send those two children to sleep next door with Bai Mo, because they wanted to hear miracle doctor Bai Mo's thrilling travels, the husband and wife had a rare moment to themselves, Ji Ling Xue curled in Xiao Yi Chen's arms: "Today Bai Mo took Xiao Xiang's pulse, her pulse is still continued steady, but he is worried fighting poison with poison isn't a long term solution, we need to gather the three herbs as soon as possible to cure her poison, even if I lose my voice I'm willing."
Xiao Yi Chen patted Ji Ling Xue's shoulder in comfort: "Don't worry, with such a resourceful husband, we won't lose her." The Dongqi gold mine could support the family for three generations.
Ji Ling Xue closed her eyes, hugging Xiao Yi Chen, "With you here, the problems will disappear."
Xiao Yi Chen gently said patting Ji Ling Xue on the shoulder: "Sleep, let me worry about everything."
Ji Ling Xue didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "You seem to be coaxing a child..."
Xiao Yi Chen chuckled lightly, tapping Ji Ling Xue on her sleeping acupuncture point, Ji Ling Xue laid softly in his arms breathing heavily.
Xiao Yi Chen lowered his head to kiss Ji Ling Xue's forehead, laying her down, he covered her with the quilt, then turning to the wardrobe he took out a night outfit from the bottom, opening the window he entered the darkness.
"Master!" An Ge appeared standing in front of Xiao Yi Chen, "Where are you going?"
Xiao Yi Chen waved his hand, "Guard here." What he needed to do couldn't be known by others.
An Ge respectfully bowed, turning he disappeared into the darkness.
In the middle of the night, Ji Ling Xue turned over, she didn't feel any warmth beside her, opening her eyes, she couldn't see Xiao Yi Chen.
Ji Ling Xue sleepiness was gone, she lit an oil lamp, picking up a book she flipped through it.
An hour passed, the window quietly opened, Ji Ling Xue raised her head, Xiao Yi Chen had jumped through the window in the night clothes.
"Wife why are you awake?" He remembered poking Ji Ling Xue's sleeping acupuncture point, how did she wake up so soon?
Ji Ling Xue smiled: "Husband, where did you?"
Xiao Yi Chen felt his back turn cold for no reason, "I couldn't sleep so I went out for a walk."
Ji Ling Xue followed: "You need to wear night clothes for a walk? If people didn't know they would think you're a thief?"
Xiao Yi Chen took off the night clothes and dove into the quilt, yawning he said: "So tired, madam hug me!" He wanted to just pretend nothing happened and not tell her.
Ji Ling Xue approached Xiao Yi Chen, probing him: "You didn't go to cause trouble for the Qian family right?" Because of what happened during the day, the impatient Xiao Yi Chen went to cause trouble for them to protect his son's heart, this was very understandable.
Xiao Yi Chen took Ji Ling Xue into his arms, lightly patting her back, "How can you think of your husband like that, this husband isn't a petty person, children should solve their own little problems, us adults shouldn't have to stand up for them over everything, we need to let the children grow up, we ought to worry less."
Ji Ling Xue: This makes sense but something seems wrong.
The next day, the Qian family came to give a gift as thanks, grateful Ji Ling Xue didn't hold a grudge and saved the Qian young master.
Ji Ling Xue opened the gift to see it was a first-rate black atractylodes rhizome, Ji Ling Xue tilted his head to say to Xiao Yi Chen: "What is landlord Qian's meaning, giving me such a good black atractylodes rhizome?"
Xiao Yi Chen: "I think this landlord Qian knows mine and yours identity, this black atractylodes rhizome is to make peace, it's only children falling out with each other, what's more the nanny was ignorant, hoping you will be magnanimous."
Ji Ling Xue said: "We're no longer the emperor and empress of Dongqi, and not prince Chen or princess Chen, how can he know."
Xiao Yi Chen laughed, picking up the black atractylodes rhizome: "Someone delivered the medicine I want, then I won't be impolite and take it, but...I don't know when we'll gather the two other herbs."
Xiao Yi Chen held Ji Ling Xue's shoulder, "Don't worry, those who try hard succeeds, we will gather the herbs needed to cure Xiao Xiang of the poison."
Ji Ling Xue nodded, leaning into Xiao Yi Chen's embrace she closed her eyes, "When we go to the herbal medicine festival in the capital, maybe we'll come across them, when Xiao Xiang's poison is cured we'll settle down, then open a small store, our lives will be carefree."
Xiao Yi Chen asked: "Are we going to return to Dongqi, Chi Feng is waiting for us to return for his wedding."
Ji Ling Xue opened her eyes, pulling on Xiao Yi Chen's arm: "Chi Feng is married, how do you know, tell me..."
Outside the door, Xiao Xiang and Xiao Mo stretched their ears to listen, Xiao Xiang looked up at the clouds in the sky, if there was no poison, mother and father won't worry about he.
Xiao Mo patted Xiao Xiang's shoulder, "Older sister, don't worry, daddy and mother will definitely cure the poison in you, then you'll just be like me, a healthy baby."
Xiao Xiang looked down on Xiao Mo, she didn't need his comfort.
Xiao Mo said: "Older sister I won't fight over food with you, I'll give you whatever you want to eat."
Xiao Xiang's lips curved: "Who told you to let me, if you want to eat then take it, stop making me out to be a glutton."
Xiao Mo: "Older sister, what are you thinking?"
Xiao Xiang: "I'm really curious why I'm poisoned but you're not, we both came out from mother's stomach, why is there such a huge difference?"
Xiao Mo shook his head, it was hard to answer Xiao Xiang's tricky question.
Xiao Xiang: "AI!"
Xiao Mo said: "I heard from nanny that I was very small when I was born, they even teased that you took all the nutrition."
"Heng!" Xiao Mo and Xiao Xiang turned their heads away, no longer paying attention to the other person.
Two months later, Ji Ling Xue and Xiao Yi Chen carried the three herbs and placed them in front of Bai Mo, Bai Mo used the tip of his tongue to sample them then nodded, "Xiao Yi Chen, you're amazing, you found a bear pill so quickly, where from, at the herbal medicine festival you used all your fortunes to buy sago pondweed, but a bear pill never appeared?"
Xiao Yi Chen said: "En, there's a black market in Beiling, today I got someone to take me there for a wonder, I didn't expect to actually come across it!"
Bai Mo questioned: "Then where did this bear pill come from?"
Xiao Yi Chen said: "The bear was fed some rare herbs, after three to five years, the bears body will bear a bear pill, it's known bears are rare and are hard to tame, they are wild and strong, sometimes rearing several bears won't produce a single pill, that's why they're so uncommon, some people haven't even heard of it."
Bai Mo suddenly nodded, throwing Xiao Yi Chen an enviable gaze, a local tyrant was indeed the strongest.
Xiao Yi Chen patted Bai Mo's shoulder: "The herbs have been given to you, the manufacturing will be up to you, we'll wait for the good news."
Bai Mo nodded, "Tomorrow at this time, bring Xiao Xiang over."
The next day, Xiao Yi Chen carried Xiao Xiang into Bai Mo's room, as soon as they entered the smell of medicine assailed their noses, Bai Mo smiled: "You came at the right time, the pill just finished."
Xiao Xiang tilted her head to look at Xiao Yi Chen, Xiao Yi Chen nodded, Xiao Xiang took the pill from Bai Mo's hand and swallowed it in one.
The atmosphere was rather tense, Xiao Yi Chen and Bai Mo watched Xiao Xiang, waiting for the medicine to take effect...
Xiao Xiang blinked, her face turned red, those enthusiastic eyes made her uncomfortable.
Elsewhere, Ji Ling Xue held a ink blue jacket calling Xiao Mo over to wear it, "Mo Mo, this is a new clothing mother made for you, come, try it on."
Xiao Mo looked around asking: "Mother, why can't I see father and older sister?"
Ji Ling Xue gave an oh: "Oh, they went for a walk, let mother put this on for you."
Xiao Mo looked at the uneven sleeves on the jacket, "Mother, the sleeves are too different on the jacket?"
Ji Ling Xue took a step back, looking left then right, "It's fine, it's more distinguished with such sleeves."
Xiao Mo: "..."
Xiao Xiang's sweet laughter came from the door, "Mother, mother, we've come back!"
Ji Ling Xue turned to look, Xiao Yi Chen was holding Xiao Xiang in one hand, another hand he was holding a box as he strode over.
Xiao Xiang's keen eyes noticed the new clothes on Xiao Mo, covering her mouth she laughed: "Daddy look, younger brother's clothes are so funny."
Xiao Mo said: "Mother personally made this." You dare to laugh at mother, you don't want to eat well!
Xiao Xiang choked on her laugh, she saw Ji Ling Xue holding a dark blue short jacket in her hand walking towards her, "Xiang Xiang, mother also made you one, quickly try it on."
Xiao Yi Chen put Xiao Xiang down, putting the food box onto the table: "They have new clothes, where's mine?"
Ji Ling Xue helped Xiao Xiang put on the jacket: "I only learned how to make clothes, later I'll make something for you."
Xiao Xiang looked at the jacket which was short by a chunk, saying in her heart: Daddy, you're lucky you don't have something.
Xiao Mo: So mine and older sisters clothes are practice for mother...
Xiao Yi Chen opened the food box picking up a pastry he stuffed it into his mouth: "Ok, I'll wait."
Ji Ling Xue turned around and returned to Xiao Yi Chen's side asking, "Is the poison in Xiao Xiang cured?"
Xiao Yi Chen nodded, the pill refined by Bai Mo hadn't failed.
Ji Ling Xue let out a long breath, the heaviness in her heart fell away, her entire person was a lot lighter.
Xiao Yi Chen held Ji Ling Xue by the waist, letting her sit on his lap, another hand he picked up a piece of pastry and placed it into her mouth: "Try it, isn't it sweet?"
Xiao Xiang and Xiao Mo looked at each other, had they been forgotten by mother, should they remind her, the clothes on them didn't fit at all, she ought to alter them.
