Your Majesty, the princess ran away again!
Chapter 45 Big Gem
"Can you take me with you when you go out in the future? Your aunt is worried about me going out alone. I really can't stay in the mansion anymore. Is that okay, big sister~" Mu Xiyao gently shook her sleeves and acted coquettishly.
It's not impossible. I heard from Wanxi that Yaoyao's grandfather's family is a royal merchant, and the whole family are experts in accounting. The shops outside also need people to do accounting and check the accounts. Asking Yaoyao to check the accounts can save money and I can feel at ease. The most important thing is that no one can resist a beautiful woman's coquettishness.
"Okay, then you can follow me. The shop will be open soon. It's a good opportunity for you to help me with the accounts. This way your aunt can rest assured."
Mu Xiyao blinked her big eyes, "Really, big sister?"
"Ok!"
"That's great. I'll go tell my aunt." After saying that, she turned around and ran to the backyard, lifting her skirt.
"Slow down, girl." Mu Nanyan shook her head. This girl might be feeling suffocated.
"Auntie!" Mu Xiyao rushed into the yard, "Slow down, or she might fall. Have you given the money to Yan'er?"
"I gave it to my aunt. I want to tell you, huhuhuhu - my elder sister asked me to help her keep accounts." Mu Xiyao held her thighs, bent over, and gasped for breath.
Jiang handed her a glass of water and asked again, thinking she had heard wrongly, "What?"
"My elder sister asked me to help her with the accounts. Auntie, you can't lock me up at home this time." After saying that, he made a face at her and ran away.
"Hey——" Jiang wanted to ask some more questions and give some instructions, but this girl was too jumpy. She ran away as soon as she was not caught, which really made her worry.
"Aunt, Yuhuai also wants to play with big sister." Mu Yuhuai looked at his sister's back as she ran away, his eyes full of envy. Ever since he had a serious illness four years ago, his aunt had not allowed him and his sister to go out without permission. Even if they went out, they had to be accompanied by four people. He envied his classmates who could go out to play after school every time, but he had to go home alone.
Jiang squatted down and stroked his head, feeling sad. She had been focusing on their safety these years and had no time to pay attention to other things. She also knew that she was incapable of protecting her children. The eldest lady was back. After a few days of observation, she found that she was an extraordinary person. She felt relieved that her children were close to her. "Since Yu Huai wants to go, then go. Remember to listen to your eldest sister."
After getting his consent, Mu Yuhuai happily ran back to get the gifts, then skipped away with a bunch of things in his arms.
Mu Nanyan returned to Jinshengyuan, selected the medicinal herbs, and packed them up for later use.
"Big sister, my aunt agrees!"
"Big sister Yu Huai is here!"
Mu Xiyao and Mu Huaiyu ran into the yard one after another. Mu Nanyan put away the herbs and came out to see the two siblings, one holding a bunch of things and the other with a silly smile on her face.
Mu Nanyan stepped forward, took the things in his arms, and asked, "What is Yu Huai holding?"
"These are all gifts for big sister. This is a jewel given by my uncle at my grandparents' house. I'm a man and don't need these things. I give them to big sister. I heard from my classmates that their sisters all like shiny things. Big sister, do you like the big jewel that Yu Huai gave me?" The little man came close to her and hugged her thighs, rubbing his little head against her legs.
"I like it." No girl would refuse to play with a gem, especially when the gem is as big as her fist.
Mu Xiyao touched her body all over, lowered her head and didn't speak. Mu Nanyan noticed that she was in a low mood, put the things in her arms on the stone table, and put her free hand on her head, "What's wrong? Weren't you very happy just now?"
"I didn't bring any gifts."
Mu Nanyan was stunned, "What?" She didn't expect that the little girl would feel disappointed because she didn't bring her a gift. She thought it was because Yu Huai gave her the big gem but not Yaoyao. She was being mean and taking advantage of others. She was so ashamed.
Mu Nanyan smiled slightly, "Why bring me any gifts? You just need to wait for the shop to open in a few days, and managing the accounts well will be the biggest gift."
"Big sister, don't worry about this matter. Leave it to me." Mu Xiyao patted her chest, her face full of pride.
Mu Nanyan took one in each hand and led them into the house. "Let's talk inside. It's too hot outside. We are all sweating."
From the moment she arrived, she smelled a special smell on Yu Huai's body. She guessed correctly that he was poisoned. It had been too long. He had used life-extending medicine, but it couldn't last long. If nothing unexpected happened, he could live for two years at most. Aunt Jiang should know this.
Mu Nanyan asked the two to sit down and brought out a plate of biscuits from the inner room. These were the snacks she had stored in the space in her previous life. Fortunately, the space could automatically replenish the goods, otherwise she would not be able to stay there. As a senior snack lover, not eating snacks would be like killing her.
"Big sister, what's this? It's so sweet."
“Pah, pah, pah—why is this bitter, big sister?” Mu Xiyao took a big gulp of water with a look of pain on her face.
Mu Nanyan covered her mouth and chuckled, "This is chocolate. It's normal that you can't get used to it. It will be fine next time. You will fall in love with it after eating it a few more times. Believe me."
"Sister, let me have a taste." Mu Huaiyu jumped off his seat, ran to Mu Xiyao, grabbed a piece of chocolate, stuffed it into his mouth, and his lips were black from eating so much.
Mu Nanyan subconsciously took out a handkerchief to wipe his mouth. After wiping, she realized that something was wrong with herself. She would never have behaved so friendly before. Was it a problem with this world that changed her habits of more than 20 years?
"It's delicious. I like this." Mu Yuhuai looked at Mu Xiyao puzzledly, as if asking her why she didn't like it.
Mu Nanyan shook her head, shaking off unnecessary thoughts, "Yu Huai, sit down. I'll take your pulse."
Mu Yuhuai sat back in his seat obediently. Mu Nanyue moved a stool and sat opposite him. She stretched out her hand to take his pulse. His pulse was sometimes strong and sometimes weak. There were two poisons in his body that had been fighting each other for years. It was a miracle that his small body could endure it until now, not to mention that he had endured it for four years. In consideration of the gemstone he gave her, she helped him.
The two poisons must be detoxified at the same time. Any residual poison left by either one will take his life. She can only prescribe some medicine to nourish his body and suppress the toxicity of the two poisons. She will then use acupuncture to force out the poison after the golden needles are made. This is the best solution she can think of at the moment.
Mu Nanyan put down his sleeves and said, "Okay Yu Huai, Yaoyao, come over here and let me take another look at you."
Mu Xiyao came over very obediently. Mu Nanyan took her pulse. The pulse seemed stable but it was actually dangerous. If she didn't look carefully, she might ignore this slight change. It seemed that the poison was in her body. Mu Nanyan pulled her up and searched her up and down, but found nothing. Could it be that the poison was not in her body?
Mu Nanyan bit her lip and asked, "Yaoyao, do you feel uncomfortable?"
Mu Xiyao thought about it and shook her head.
There are no symptoms. It seems that the poison is not serious. Could it be that...
