Chapter 203: A Jade Rabbit

Yunzhu felt embarrassed and looked at the Boss squatting down and carefully cleaning the blood away.

“But is your hand all right? Just now, I saw my blood on your hands as well.”

Lin Mengya checked her hands with interests. They were fine.

“I don’t know why. Maybe it’s because too much medicine was mixed in with your blood. It goes against the medicine inside my body.”

It surprised her as well that venom had squirted out during the period of treating Yunzhu.

The moment the venom splashed over those crude medicines, they became less effective.

It turned out to still be overwhelming the poison in her body.

“You have to take the medicine several times to completely clear out the poison. But your face… your face will be destroyed a little in the end.”

The poison had been in her body for many years. Lin Mengya didn’t expect that her teacher’s medicine would work so well.

Most of the poisons were removed only once.

But Lin Mengya had to cut a small opening where she expelled the poison every time.

That small opening would then be contaminated, having no possibility to grow new skin.

“The face is unimportant for me. Don’t worry about it. I won’t blame you. Just do it.”

Yunzhu lightly touched the white napkin covering her face. She felt her face get hot when the venom was eliminated.

“I’ll try my best to help you with it. There are two bottles of detoxification pills. In the next few days, take one pill every day. The day you have no pills is when I’ll do the second acupuncture.”

Yunzhu nodded. She had been eaten up by the poison for many years.

She had enough patience to wait another few days.

“Is he all right?”

Yunzhu hesitated for a while and finally asked.

Lin Mengya smiled and turned back at her.

“If you want to know whether Teacher is alright, you can pay a visit to his place when it is convenient. I would not like to be a carrier pigeon between you two. I’m starving now. It’s time for food.”

Lin Mengya grabbed the basin and left the room.

“Are you all right, little girl?”

Lin Mengya just stepped out of the room, and Qinghu greeted her immediately. The worried expression on his face didn’t fade away until he saw her.

“I’m all right. Oh, I almost forgot.”

She took a bottle of antidote from her chest and dropped it into the water. Then, she handed the basin over to Baiji.

“I’m hungry. Aunt Bai, is there a meal left?”

The starving feeling passed from her stomach to her brain.

Lin Mengya had meals regularly every day after she traveled through time to the ancient world, not like when she was in the modern world.

Thus, she would feel starved if she didn’t eat regularly.

“It’s heating up. I’ll take it to you here. Baiji, clean Master’s face quickly.”

Baiji immediately went over to hold up Lin Mengya, who was so hungry that she could eat a horse.

Spare ribs with scallions, fried vegetarian chop suey, chicken and cucumber salad, and two kinds of pickles that Baiji’s mother made personally, as well as a bowl of rice… Lin Mengya enjoyed herself.

“Aunt Bai, you are excellent at cooking. None of the cooks in the mansion can be better than you!”

Lin Mengya was not stingy on praising Baiji’s mother as she was eating.

“It’s not entirely because I have the best cooking skills. It’s mostly because you, Your Highness, are appreciative of me.”

Baiji’s mother received great compliments from Lin Mengya. She found her more and more lovely and friendly.

Besides, Lin Mengya acted down to earth. So she didn’t restrain herself from speaking.

“Oh, how is the business in our drugstore recently?”

Baiji’s father had already gotten the ledger ready. He unfolded it in front of Lin Mengya.

“In accordance with your orders, we sold medicine to the poor at half or no price. But what we did sell was all rare medicine. So we made a good profit.”

Baiji liked Lin Mengya’s idea.

Their medicines were sold at an extremely high price. But Lin Mengya told them not to earn money from ordinary people.

“That’s good. In a few days, there will be patent medicines arriving. Remember, Uncle Bai, that they are not for public sale. You can only sell them to those people carrying a letter with my handwriting, remember?”

Baiji’s father didn’t ask why and directly nodded his approval.

“I’ll keep it in my mind. I’ll go by your orders.”

Lin Mengya carried on eating. She didn’t stop until she was full.

Her maids and Lin Zhongyu came to the yard and looked at Aunt Bai’s livestock, which included chickens, ducks, and rabbits.

Only Qinghu stayed with Lin Mengya.

“What information did you get about Yunzhu?”

Lin Mengya got up and stood by the window. She felt in a pleasant mood when she heard laughter from the yard outside.

“In the past years, she has been hiding in Capital City. I heard that she hid in the Han family.”

Qinghu turned his eyes to the wing room where Yunzhu was.

Baisu delivered the meal to her just now. But right now, it was empty of people.

“The Han family in charge of the imperial household? How could that be?”

Qinghu nodded, and then he told her everything he had heard.

“It’s weird. The Han family has an extremely close relationship with the empress. During these years of Yunzhu’s hiding, the Han family has been helping her?”

Hundreds of questions emerged in her mind. The Han family was not a noble family known for military devotion, but they took charge of the imperial household because they played up to the empress.

Everything that was needed in the palace, including food and the necessities of life, was managed by the Han family alone.

They dared to hide Yunzhu. It was not their style.

“The eldest son of the Han family in that year, he is the Master now. Do you know what his name is?”

Qinghu spoke of the past gossip with great interest as if he was a paparazzo in modern times.

“He is the most intimate friend, the best friend of your Teacher, Mr. Gusu—Han Yunji!”

Lin Mengya’s words struck her that Yunzhu got the news that Baili Rui adopted another person exactly from his friend.

“Is that him?”

Lin Mengya was puzzled and looked at Qinghu. But Qinghu just wiggled his head and avoided telling the truth.

She reached out her hands to forcefully pull him by the ear. Qinghu screamed out in pain. He finally surrendered himself to her violence and told her the truth.

Han Yunji was the eldest son of the Han family. He spent money like water, as if it was nothing important.

Baili Rui, Lin Mengya’s teacher, became famous due to his excellent acupuncture.

Han Yunji and Baili Rui felt like old friends at their first meeting. But unfortunately, they fell in love with a woman.

What happened afterward was an out-dated story.

Baili Rui vanished. Yunzhu had a love injury. As a result, the one who stayed with Yunzhu was Han Yunji.

“The one whom Yunzhu begged you to treat might be Han Yunji. Five years ago, he was suddenly confined to his bed with a serious illness for no reason. It was a surprise that he was poisoned.”

Too much information was poured into her head. Lin Mengya felt like that she might get involved in the love triangle of Baili Rui.

“It’s been so many years. Han Yunji still stays with Yunzhu. He is a good man, with affection and faith. I should help him out.”

Qinghu nodded his approval of her.

“You look like you have something on your mind. What did Baiji tell you?”

Lin Mengya often unconsciously frowned as if she had something unsolved in her mind.

She seemed to have gone far away from that young girl who often laughed as she wanted.

“Nothing. I just felt myself being unable to bear it. Too many things have taken place recently.”

After letting out a sigh, Lin Mengya shook her head with a smile.

Qinghu was about to comfort her, but he stopped as if something came to his mind.

He cautiously took a sandalwood box from his chest.

“Moran and Qingli found this for you the other day. Take a look!”

Qinghu presented it to Lin Mengya as if it were a treasure. Looking at him, Lin Mengya felt very warm in her heart.

He always treated her like a child and often presented something precious to her.

She took it and found a small jade rabbit with a piece of red string inside.

“It’s lovely!”

Lin Mengya took the rabbit out of the box. The jade rabbit was crystal clear with a little green piece on its mouth, which was a curved vegetable leaf.

“Look at it carefully. There is something different on the leaf.”

She took a closer look and found a tiny worm on that leaf. Heavens!

It would never be found by just glancing at it.

“Baizhi told me that you were born in the Year of the Rabbit. It is very lovely and it is also able to give off heat when you hold it. It is very helpful to protect your heart.”

Then, Qinghu put it around her neck.

The vivid rabbit dropped exactly on her chest.

“It’s true. I feel warm here.”

Lin Mengya gave it a try and found that the jade rabbit truly warmed her heart.

She knew that the area around her heart was damaged after Yue Ting’s death.

They all worried about her.

Qinghu especially often went out to seek something valuable to recover her health.

“Little girl, I’ve made a decision on the three Mr. Geniuses. Moran and Qingli will assist Yunzhu to govern Sanjue Hall for you. In the future, you should take care of yourself. Never wear yourself out.”

Hearing Qinghu’s words full of concern, Lin Mengya felt a surging in her nose.

She turned to embrace Qinghu. His body was thin.

“Qinghu, I promise you, I will definitely figure out the medicine to cure you. But you must promise me to keep yourself alive until I can work it out.”

A crooked smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He lightly embraced her back.

He wanted to stay with his little girl forever if possible.

Suddenly, he felt his stomach turn. He didn’t want to release his little girl, so he managed to suppress it. But his throat felt a little sweet.

“Why is there a smell of blood? Do you—”

Lin Mengya immediately went over to check his body, only to find two lines of fresh blood coming down from his nose, very shiny.

The guy whom she was worried about seemed to have lost himself in her beauty.

“Lecher!”

Lin Mengya forcefully stomped on his foot and walked out in anger.

“I was so worried about him. He deserves it!”

“Ah, slowly!”
