After I got into the drama, I led the plot astray

Looking at Hua Wushuang's heartless look, I think we should find her a capable and reliable wet nurse immediately, to prevent Du Jintang from being played to death by his mother.

After leaving the private room, Hua Wushuang rushed to the military camp to bring food to her husband. She didn't want her son anymore, so she threw him to Yang and ran away with the food box.

I was really at a loss whether to laugh or cry. I didn't have a wet nurse in my house. Fortunately, Yang had given birth to a child and knew how to raise a child, otherwise this fat boy would have to be sent back to the Du Mansion.

Our carriage was in the backyard. Fuyao went to get the carriage. Yang, I and Du Jintang waited at the front door.

I was playing with Du Jintang when a carriage slowly drove past us. Suddenly, a breeze blew up a corner of the carriage curtain, and a familiar face suddenly appeared in front of me!

I was stunned when I saw the face. Before I could react, the car window curtain dropped down again and the face was hidden behind it.

I ran after the carriage for a few steps, which frightened Yang. She ran after me, holding the heavy Du Jintang in her arms, and shouted, "Where are you going, Madam? Our carriage hasn't arrived yet."

I was awakened by Yang's shout. I stared blankly at the carriage going away and murmured, "How could it be him? Why did he return to Beijing?"

Yang was already struggling to hold Du Jintang, and after running a few steps she was already panting like a cow. She gasped and asked, "Mom, mom, what are you talking about?"

I shook my head vigorously and said, "I must be dazzled. I actually saw someone who can't possibly return to Dayu."

Yang was confused by what she heard. How could someone not be able to return to Dayu?

At this time, Fuyao came over in a carriage. Yang quickly put Du Jintang on the carriage, and then helped me get on.

When I returned to the Duke's Mansion, I found that an unexpected guest had been waiting for a long time.

This is actually Cheng Dazhi!

Due to his special status, Cheng Dazhi usually does not interact with officials. I didn't expect that he would come to my house.

When Cheng Dazhi saw me, he bowed deeply to me, prostrating himself on the ground, and said loudly, "I pay my respects to the Empress Dowager Shu. May the Empress live a thousand years, a thousand years, a thousand thousand years."

I was already surprised when I saw Cheng Dazhi, but I didn't expect him to give me such a big honor. I was so scared that I quickly helped him up and said, "Master Cheng, there's no need to be so polite. Please stand up quickly."

Cheng Dazhi stood up, picked up a wooden box on the table, handed it to me and said, "Your Majesty, I know that your health is not good and you need a hundred-year-old ginseng to nourish yourself. This is a hundred-year-old ginseng that I found with great difficulty. Please accept it."

Fuyao took it for me, and before I opened it, I could already smell a strong ginseng fragrance.

I really didn't expect that Cheng Dazhi came to my house this time to give me ginseng.

I said a little embarrassedly: "Master Cheng, this is too polite. This century-old ginseng is very expensive. I can't accept it."

As I said that, I asked Fuyao to hand over the wooden box.

Cheng Dazhi pushed him away and said, "I heard from Duke Zhao that it was you who suggested that your fourth sister go with you to save me. If you hadn't said that, I would have died long ago. Besides, even if you hadn't said that, Duke Zhao saved me, and I have to repay this great favor. It's just a ginseng, I can afford it."

After Cheng Dazhi finished speaking, without waiting for me to refuse, he turned around and walked away in a hurry, as if there was a vicious dog chasing him.

Looking at Cheng Dazhi's somewhat arrogant and stubborn look, I couldn't help but laugh.

This character is so cute in an awkward way.

But I couldn't care about Cheng Dazhi, I had something more important to do.

I asked Fuyao, "When you went to the backyard to get the carriage, did you see a tall, thin man wearing a blue brocade robe and a white jade hairpin in his hair?"

Fuyao thought about it carefully and said, "No, but when I went to the backyard, a carriage was leaving. I saw that the carriage driver's clothes didn't look like those of Dayu."

When I heard Fu Yao say this, my heart, which had been hanging in the air, seemed to suddenly fall.

I took a long breath and said, "Go and find out where this driver is now? Who is the man with him?"

Fuyao immediately handed the box of ginseng to Yingchun who had just walked in, and turned and left without asking why.

I like Fu Yao's personality. She has strong execution ability, is loyal, and most importantly, has very strong personal abilities. No wonder Zheng Xian gave her to me before he died.

Yingchun is getting a little older, so I no longer let her serve me. Her affairs have been handed over to Xichun. But she still lives in the Duke's Mansion. She comes to chat with me every day and sits next to me to do some needlework. She has become more plump and is bathed in the glow of maternal love.

Yingchun took a look at the ginseng sent by Cheng Dazhi and exclaimed, "This ginseng looks more than a hundred years old. Madam, look at the veins and the branches. They are at least two hundred years old."

Yingchun makes nourishing soup for me every day. She is quite knowledgeable about some high-quality nourishing medicinal ingredients.

Cheng Dazhi and I don't have much friendship, but I didn't expect that he would give me such a precious old ginseng.

I don’t know if I can bring this old ginseng back to the modern era. If I could, I would be really rich.

Just as he was thinking about it, Yi Ping and Zheng Yunyan walked in from the door together.

As soon as Yiping returned to the house, he sat down on a chair and said loudly, "I'm tired and thirsty. Hurry up and give me some sweet soup to moisten my throat. I feel like my throat is about to smoke."

Zheng Yunyan sat next to Yi Ping and said loudly, "I want one too."

I looked at them in confusion and asked, "What have you been doing? Why are you in such a mess?"

After hearing this, Xichun hurried to serve them the sweet soup and also brought my tonic soup.

Yi Ping waved his hands and said, "Don't mention it. Xingyaoxuan has just released a batch of jewelry, and I wanted to pick a few pieces for you. However, when I arrived, I was told that all the new jewelry had been bought by a customer. It's a good thing to have business, but I originally asked the shopkeeper to keep some for me, but he sold them all without leaving a single piece. I was so angry that I scolded him, but the shopkeeper said that the price offered by the customer was too high and it would be a waste of money if I didn't sell them. The jewelry was gone, and I happened to hear that our cloth shop had received several pieces of high-quality silk, so I rushed to the cloth shop to take those pieces of cloth back to make clothes for you. However, when I arrived, the cloth had been sold again, and it was sold to the same customer! Do you think I was angry? I was so angry that I almost smoked."

I said with some amusement: "You are an interesting boss, as if you are afraid of making money. But why did you think of making jewelry and clothes for me?"

Zheng Yunyan said quickly: "Because your birthday is coming soon."

Then I remembered that my birthday was indeed approaching.
