After Ji Han finished speaking, he bowed and left. However, before he had taken a few steps, he returned and asked Shen Ruolan, "Master, those refugees don't have big pots. Should we buy them some?"

Shen Ruolan thought for a moment and said to Ji Han, "Go tell the villagers, whoever is willing to sell a pot, I will give him two taels of silver for each pot."

Nowadays, you can’t get food anywhere, let alone sell iron, so you can’t just buy a big pot if you want to.

"Yes, I obey your command." Ji Han said and went out.

After Ji Han left, Shen Ruolan asked Liu Gu to fetch her some hot water. She took a comfortable bath in the tub. The makeup on her face was washed away, revealing a stunning face. It was impossible to match the ugly face she had seen during the day.

Shen Ruolan enjoyed this rare short leisure time. She reached out and touched her slightly bulging belly. She lowered her head and asked with a smile: "Little ones, are you all well in your mother's belly?"

After saying that, she smiled silently and continued, "You two should grow up well in your mother's belly. Your mother is trying to find a place to stay, so that when you come out, we can have our own little home."

After Shen Ruolan finished speaking, she leaned back in the bathtub and fantasized about herself and the children together. As she thought about it, the sweet scenes filled her whole body with energy. She wished she could finish everything immediately and wait for the children to arrive with peace of mind.

After an unknown amount of time, Shen Ruolan realized that the water had cooled down and hurried out of the tub. She had just put on her clothes and before she could ask Aunt Liu to pour some water, she heard Li Heng anxiously shouting outside, "Little Doctor, please come out quickly. My master is dying."

When Shen Ruolan heard that Mu Jinxuan was dying, she paused for a moment, came out and asked Li Heng: "What's wrong? He was fine during the day..."

Shen Ruolan was halfway through her words when she saw Li Heng staring at her in a daze. She suddenly realized that something was wrong. Just as she was about to turn around and go back to the house, Li Heng came back to his senses and quickly pulled her back and said, "Little doctor, please help my master. He just had a sudden attack of cold poison and vomited blood and fainted."

His master would suffer from a cold attack on the 15th of every month, but in the past month, because the young doctor had given him acupuncture, he had not had an attack on the past two fifteenths. For some reason, he had an attack tonight.

When Shen Ruolan heard that the man's cold poison had broken out, she calculated the days. Something was wrong. The poison she had sealed for him should last for at least two months. Why did it suddenly break out now?

Shen Ruolan looked at the unconscious man on the ground, hesitated for a moment, and without even bothering to put on makeup, she squatted down and took his pulse.

After a while, Shen Ruolan withdrew her hand, wishing she could kick the man on the ground a few times. She had said that her acupuncture would work for at least two months, no matter if it lasted for three months. As long as he was seeking death, under normal circumstances, the attack would not occur.

Li Heng saw that Shen Ruolan looked unhappy. He looked at her anxiously and asked, "Little, oh no, Miss Shen, what happened to my master?"

Shen Ruolan looked at him unhappily and said, "Don't worry, you won't die."

After he finished speaking, he paused and continued, "But if he continues to do this in the future, even the Great Luo Immortal will not be able to save him."

After listening to Shen Ruolan's words, Li Heng looked at her and asked cautiously, "Miss Shen, may I ask what taboo has my master violated?"

Li Heng looked at Shen Ruolan, who had not disguised herself. Her serious aura was no less than that of his own master, which made him feel oppressed. Even when talking to her, he did not dare to confront her without scruples as usual.

However, he never dreamed that the ugly tomboy would have such stunning beauty. Her confidence and calm temperament were no less than those of the young ladies from noble families in the capital.

Shen Ruolan glared at him and said unhappily, "Your master's estrus caused the cold poison to attack. Tell him to be more careful next time. Otherwise, if it happens a few more times, he will die without treatment."

"In heat? Only animals can do that..." Li Heng didn't react at first. When he finally reacted, he stared at Shen Ruolan and shouted, "Shen Ruolan, believe it or not, I will kill you right now."

How ridiculous! His master is a precious commodity, and this damn woman actually dared to call his master a beast. She is simply courting death!

Shen Ruolan was not afraid of him. She looked up at him and said softly, "It's not that whoever speaks louder is right. You need to understand the situation. Now you are begging me. If I get upset later and want to raise the price or don't want to save people, what can you do to me?"

There was no way. She was pregnant now and couldn't yell back like a normal person. Otherwise, she would definitely compete with this reckless man in front of her with her loud voice tonight.

The quarrel between the two attracted the attention of Ji Ning and the others. They came out of the house and asked, "Master, what happened? Do you need our help?"

Shen Ruolan glanced at everyone and said, "No need, you all go down and rest."

"Master, you..." Many servants were shocked after seeing Shen Ruolan's true appearance. They never dreamed that they would follow a master who was like a fairy.

Shen Ruolan smiled at everyone and said, "Let's go to bed."

She disguised herself not to protect her own people but to protect herself from outsiders, so she didn't think there was anything wrong with everyone seeing her face.

"Yes." Everyone came back from their shock and responded to Shen Ruolan respectfully.

Ji Ning returned to the house and said to the women in the house: "No wonder our master wanted to disguise herself like this, it turns out that she is too beautiful."

The other women said, "That's right. Our master is a very wise man. Otherwise, with her appearance, she would have caused a lot of trouble among the refugees."

After hearing this, Ji Ning said with a worried look on her face, "But the master's true appearance has been seen by the master and servant. Will they have other ideas about the master in the future?"

The other woman said nonchalantly, "That master and servant are not simple at first glance. That young man is also handsome, and he is a good match for our master."

"Ahem." Aunt Liu coughed a few times and said to them, "Hurry up and go to bed. The master has his own way to deal with his affairs. Don't worry about it here."

Others might not know, but she vaguely felt that something was wrong with her master, but she would not make blind guesses before her master revealed it.

After hearing what Liu Gu said, Ji Ning and others shut their mouths and stopped talking.

Outside, Shen Ruolan asked Li Heng to find a torch. She gave Mu Jinxuan acupuncture for half an hour overnight. When she stood up, she lost her balance due to squatting for a long time and almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, Li Heng supported her in time.

Shen Ruolan rubbed her numb legs and said to Li Heng, "Hurry up and make a simple bed for your master tomorrow. Otherwise, I can't stand squatting like this every day."
