Fu Jichang only felt a gaze shooting towards him. He turned his head away hurriedly and shouted out the window: "Mrs. Huang is not here, and Heita is not here either. I'm fine. Stop yelling!"

When Ji Xiaobei came in, he was still thinking about the underwear and didn't hear what they were saying.

She looked at Fu Jichang in confusion and asked, "He Ye, did he bully you?"

There were two grown men in the room. One of them ran out in a hurry to find someone, while the other sat on the bed timidly, holding the quilt tightly...

It’s hard not to have wild thoughts in this situation!

Fu Jichang saw Ji Xiaobei's malicious eyes wandering around him, and asked with a stern face: "What do you want to do, He Ye is still here!"

"I don't want to do anything. What can I do? I'll come in after you and He Ye have dealt with the matter. I think I came at the wrong time..."

Ji Xiaobei glared at him and walked out.

He almost bumped into He Ye who rushed in through the door.

"Mr. He, I'm so sorry to bother you. You two can continue!"

Ji Xiaobei clasped his fists and said apologetically.

"Ah... let's continue. What are we going to do?" He Ye asked, scratching his head, and then looked at Fu Jichang, "Are you not in pain anymore?"

Ji Xiaobei quickened his pace and walked out of the house, not daring to listen any further.

"No, Miss Ji, you misunderstood..." He Ye seemed to realize that something was wrong, turned around and caught up with Ji Xiaobei and said.

"I didn't hear anything. I'll find him after you two are done."

Ji Xiaobei waved his hand.

Ever since Fu Jichang was poisoned, He Ye has been extremely anxious. Ji Xiaobei doesn't know what their relationship is, but they have a deep friendship.

He Ye is the commander of the Xishan Guard, stationed in Anzhou to ensure the stability of the people.

Fu Jichang should also hold an important position in Anzhou, so it is not surprising that the two have a good relationship.

She doesn't care about or want to know about things that have nothing to do with her.

Since she had decided to save Fu Jichang, she would definitely treat him to the end, and she did not need Fu Jichang's repayment.

She saved Fu Jichang and helped Liang Yuyao, but it was not out of excessive maternal love.

She just felt that she couldn't bear to see a good man die like that.

She was sitting on a stool in the side room, lost in thought, when she heard He Ye calling her from outside: "Miss Ji, I have something else to do, so I'll leave first! By the way, there will be an Autumn Society incense burning and blessing ceremony at Xishan Temple the day after tomorrow, you can go and pray!"

Ji Xiaobei responded.

She had heard about the Autumn Incense Burning Ceremony at Xishan Temple a long time ago, and Mrs. Lin and Mrs. Huang were eager to go.

After He Ye left, Ji Xiaobei looked at the sun and saw that it was getting late, so he decided to give him the injection.

She entered Fu Jichang's room and looked at him with a smile.

Fu Jichang felt a little uneasy.

Of course he knew what Ji Xiaobei was going to do next, so in order to ease the embarrassment and uneasiness, he smiled and said, "The Autumn Festival at Xishan Temple the day after tomorrow that He Ye mentioned must be very crowded. As a girl, you'd better not go!"

Ji Xiaobei had long wanted to join in the fun; she had never seen such a large ceremony before.

She retorted: "Why can't a girl go? The people of Anzhou can go, so why can't I go?"

Fu Jichang: ...

"Well, if you want to go, that's fine. He Ye will lead people there to maintain order that day. You should go earlier and let He Ye find you a seat near the front!"

"That's pretty much it..."

"By the way, how is my grandmother?" Fu Jichang asked again.

Ji Xiaobei told Fu Jichang what Old Lady Fu was thinking.

Fu Jichang nodded and said, "These past few days, I have also been thinking about asking Aunt Zhang to come back. She and Uncle Huang are both in the farm in the suburbs. I will ask Heita to bring Aunt Zhang over."

"If Uncle Huang has nothing to do, let him come over! The old lady has a male servant by her side, it will be more convenient." Ji Xiaobei said.

Since Old Mrs. Fu was in the textile workshop, Ji Xiaobei asked Mrs. Huang or Mrs. Lin to stay here with her.

If both Nanny Zhang and Ah Huang came, she would feel much more at ease.

Fu Jichang nodded.

"Uncle Huang came to the textile workshop. I would like to ask him to help look after the workshop. I will pay him the wages." Ji Xiaobei said.

She was worried because there was no one she trusted in the textile workshop.

"Uncle Huang's wages will be paid by the Fu family!"

"The money paid by the Fu family is the Fu family's. The money I paid was from Uncle Huang helping me look after the workshop. The wages I paid are not the same as yours."

Fu Jichang: ...Okay, you little girl is very clear about the distinction.

Fu Jichang tried his best to delay the injection, but he really couldn't find a topic to talk about, and the room fell silent.

Fu Jichang's hand suddenly touched the bag of pine nuts.

"This, Heita saw that I like it, so he bought me a bag!" Fu Jichang handed it to Ji Xiaobei.

Ji Xiaobei: Do you like pine nuts too? I don’t think I gave you any that day!

She felt that she had gone too far.

She pushed the pine nuts over and said with a laugh, "I have more at home, help yourself!"

"Then I'll pack it for you!"

"No, I had enough yesterday!"

"Try mine, maybe it tastes different from yours..."

"no need!"

"Ji Dongjia, please try it!"

……

The two pushed each other and almost tore the bag of pine nuts into pieces.

Ji Xiaobei grabbed the bag of pine nuts, threw it aside, and said sternly: "Xiaoyao, don't try to avoid the injection. You have to take it today, whether you want to or not..."

Fu Jichang was stunned and thought in frustration: How did she see through me!

Is it possible not to get this humiliating injection?

Fu Jichang looked pitiful.

Ji Xiaobei: No!

Fu Jichang's face turned cold and he said nothing.

"Yesterday you were able to pick pine nuts, and today you tried every means to avoid the injection. It seems that my medicine is very effective. I guess you will be able to jump up and run away tomorrow!" Ji Xiaobei said with a provocative smile.

"not me……"

"I have prepared the medicine, you must take the shot!" Ji Xiaobei said seriously.

"I'm almost well now, and the poison should be eliminated. Just ask Lian Feng to prescribe some other herbs for me to take care of myself!"

Fu Jichang showed no sign of weakness. He made up his mind that he would not give this humiliating injection again.

When you are unconscious and unable to move, you have no control over your body.

When you are sober, you can still make your own decisions.

Fu Jichang stiffened his neck in anger.

Ji Xiaobei couldn't bear to see him like this, so he put on his shoes and said calmly, "I've done my best to treat your illness. As for whether you want further treatment, that's up to you. I gave you injections for two days, and the medicine was developed specifically for you by someone I asked for help from many people and spent a lot of money, a total of 1000 taels of silver, you pay the money!"

Ji Xiaobei extended his hand to Fu Jichang indifferently.
