310 Hard Work
“Yueyue, you’ve worked hard these past few days,” Jiang Ying said to Ning Yue with heartache.
“It’s fine. Eat something first.” As she spoke, Ning Yue picked up the bowl of porridge again, scooped a spoonful, and brought it to Jiang Ying’s mouth.
A smile appeared on Jiang Ying’s face as he opened his mouth and ate it. “It’s very sweet!”
Sweet? Ning Yue frowned. White porridge was ordinary porridge cooked with rice. She had not asked the servants to add anything. How could it be sweet?
“Is there something wrong with your taste buds?” Ning Yue looked at Jiang Ying in shock.
Jiang Ying shook his head. “It’s because you fed me personally.”
Ning Yue blushed. “You! You’ve just recovered and you’re already joking like this!”
“I’m not joking. Yueyue, it’s been hard on you these past few days,” Jiang Ying said with heartache.
“It’s fine. By the way, the smallpox on your body has already scabbed over. Don’t scratch it with your hands, or it’ll leave a scar,” Ning Yue reminded Jiang Ying.
Other than feeling sorry for Ning Yue, Jiang Ying was also grateful.
Smallpox was the most serious virus and could even infect people. If not for Ning Yue, he might have died from smallpox this time!
Just as Jiang Ying was thinking about how to thank Ning Yue, Uncle Su arrived and interrupted him.
“Heir and Princess, a young man is here. He said that he’s here on the orders of his young master to visit,” Uncle Su said.
“Who?” Ning Yue looked at Uncle Su in surprise.
The news that Jiang Ying had smallpox had already spread in Laifu Town. Those people probably did not dare to visit him directly.
“That person said that you’ll know when you go out.” As Uncle Su said this, he secretly observed Jiang Ying’s expression.
As expected, Jiang Ying’s expression was very ugly. He gritted his teeth. He wanted to know who was so bold to disturb his time with Ning Yue!
“Alright, I’ll go take a look first. Jiang Ying, wait for me.” After Ning Yue finished speaking to Jiang Ying, she left with Uncle Su.
Uncle Su followed behind Ning Yue and couldn’t help but say to her, “Miss Ning Yue, this person doesn’t look like someone to be trifled with.”
“Why did you provoke him for no reason?” Ning Yue looked at Uncle Su in confusion.
Uncle Su was speechless. He didn’t mean anything else. He just wanted to ask Ning Yue why she knew such a person.
However, at this point, he decided not to go deeper. He would leave everything to Ning Yue.
“Princess Mingyue, our master Lian Xin asked me to visit you. My name is Wu Xin,” Wu Xin said.
“Eh, what are you looking at me for? I’ll be at the jewelry shop in a few days. Tell him not to worry,” Ning Yue said.
“That’s not what Master Lian Xin meant. Master Lian Xin asked me to give this to you,” Wu Xin said as she took out a small wooden box.
The small wooden box was exquisite. There were beautiful patterns on it that looked familiar, but she couldn’t remember what they were.
Ning Yue took the small wooden box. “What is this?”
“This is medicine. Our master said that if you use the medicine he gave you to treat smallpox, you have to continue using this medicine so that there won’t be any aftereffects.”
Huh? Aftereffects?
Ning Yue was a little surprised. She had given Jiang Ying western medicine and treated the symptoms correctly. There were almost no aftereffects.
This medicine…
She still took it even though she did not use the medicine Lian Xin had given her.
“Master asked me to greet you,” Wu Xin said.
“Oh, I’m fine. Don’t worry about me. Go back and tell him. Thank him for the medicine,” Ning Yue said.
“Princess Mingyue, when our young master heard that Prince Jiang Ying had smallpox, he immediately found medicine,” Wu Xin said.
“Yes, I’m very grateful to him,” Ning Yue said.
“Alright, I’ll pass your message to our master,” Wu Xin said.
“Yes, help me tell him that Jiang Ying has recovered. Tell him not to worry about me. I’ll go to the shop in a few days,” Ning Yue said.
“Then Princess Mingyue, take care of yourself. I’ll go back and report now,” Wu Xin said.
“Yes, go,” Ning Yue said.
Wu Xin returned to where Lian Xin lived. Lian Xin immediately asked, “How’s Princess Mingyue?”
“There’s nothing wrong with her. She just looks very haggard. I think she hasn’t rested much these past few days because she’s worried about Prince Jiang Ying,” Wu Xin said.
Lian Xin didn’t say anything else. He waved his hand to dismiss Wu Xin. He stood in the back of the shop in a daze.
