A farmer's daughter who traveled through time: Marrying a sickly man

"Don't worry, ma'am, everything is fine. They covered their faces at the time, so no one saw them." Uncle Gu praised happily, "Yun'an is now very steady and responsible."

Yun An has now fully assumed the position of captain of the guard team on Xia Tian's side. In addition to being responsible for the security of the second courtyard, he is also responsible for the restaurant.

He is also down-to-earth, responsible and thorough in his work.

These days, we have arranged for people to be on duty at the restaurant at night. They are not only careful and thoughtful, but also steady and measured.

"Okay. Before doing anything, make sure you are safe first." Xia Tian said with a smile, but also gave a worried reminder.

I am afraid that they will be so focused on completing the mission that they will be careless and expose their flaws, putting themselves in danger, which is not worth it.

Uncle Gu, Yun'an, and the others have been working very hard lately, but no one has complained. Xia Tian was very pleased. "Uncle Gu, when you distribute the monthly wages this month, give Yun'an and the others an extra five taels of silver each, and you an extra ten taels as a reward for this period of time."

"Okay, ma'am, thank you very much." Uncle Gu rubbed his hands excitedly.

This lady is really generous. Normally, he already receives a monthly salary of fifteen taels of silver as the shopkeeper here.

They even give out rewards all the time, which is much better than his previous master.

Moreover, the lady is kind and never treats servants harshly, which is better than many other masters.

"Well, it's okay. I'll go back first." Xia Tian said hello to Uncle Gu after dinner and went back to Linglong Lane first.

In three days, Uncle Chen had already rolled out tens of thousands of soybean-sized pills.

I estimate that it should be all done in about ten days.

Aunt Chen only made about twenty sets of cotton-padded clothes and cotton-padded shoes.

Uncle Chen looked at Xia Tian, a little embarrassed, "Madam, girls are more careful when it comes to rolling the pills, so they have mainly helped us roll the pills these past few days."

The group of young men felt embarrassed when they heard Uncle Chen say this. The main reason was that rolling pills was a delicate job. With their clumsy hands and feet, they could probably roll pills the size of eggs, but soybean-sized ones would be a bit difficult for them.

"That's all right." Xia Tian looked at the rows of small porcelain bottles with a smile on his face. "First, let's get the pills out quickly and then make the clothes later."

It is not a good idea to boil medicine in the yard every day, mainly because the smell is too strong and the neighbors around will inevitably smell it.

"Okay, ma'am." Uncle Chen and Aunt Chen quickly agreed.

She looked at the porcelain bottles, each labeled with the name of the medicine, neatly arranged and classified, and nodded with satisfaction, "Uncle Chen is very meticulous in his work. These are packaged very well."

As she spoke, she picked up a porcelain bottle, opened it, poured out the pills and looked at them. They were exactly the same as she had requested.

Uncle Chen heard the compliment and grinned as he introduced Xia Tian, "Madam, each of these medicine bottles contains twenty pills. Here are five hundred bottles."

After a pause, he continued, "Madam, if all the herbs are rolled into pills, then the batch of porcelain bottles we ordered will not be enough. We need to order more."

I didn't think too much about it before and only ordered 2,000. I thought there would be some left over and I could put them aside when the time comes, as they can be used anyway.

I didn’t expect that there are fewer now.

"Well, Uncle Chen, take care of it. Order more. Maybe they'll be useful in the future."

Originally, she planned to pack the rolled pills into jars and put them in the space. After all, the space can keep the pills fresh and they won't go bad.

Then prepare some empty porcelain bottles in the space and put a few in them when you need them.

But because Uncle Chen needed to help boil the medicine and make the pills, they couldn't be packaged in this way, so we ordered two thousand porcelain bottles.

After she finished looking around here and there was nothing else to do, she returned to the Marquis' Mansion.

Wen Jin's wedding was in a few days, so Xia Tian didn't go out again. He just stayed in the house reading and painting.

The day before Wen Jin's wedding, she went to Wen Yibo's house to add makeup to her makeup.

Hu Mengyao and Lin Sayu were naturally there too.

When she took out the portrait for Wen Jin, as soon as Wen Jin took it, Hu Mengyao looked at her expectantly, "Sister Wen, open it and show it to us."

Wen Jin glanced at Xia Tian, and when she nodded, she opened the box and took out the scroll. Just as she was about to open it, Hu Mengyao snatched it away, "Let me do it!"

As he said that, he handed one end to Lin Sayu and took the other end and gently unfolded it.

"Wow! This is so beautiful!" they exclaimed!

In the painting, Wen Jin is standing in a large plum forest, looking straight ahead. Her face is gorgeous, and her white cloak and the red plum blossoms complement each other beautifully, which is breathtakingly beautiful!

This was the first time I went to Lingwu Temple. The moment that impressed Xia Tian the most about Wen Jin was in the plum forest on the back mountain.

Wen Jin was naturally outstanding in appearance. The reason she became famous in the capital was not only her talent but also her beauty.

Wen Jin in the painting is lifelike, giving people the feeling of a fairy in a painting.

"How is it? Do you like it?" Xia Tian asked her with a smile.

Wen Jin stared at herself in the painting and nodded after a long moment. "I like it! Thank you, Xia Tian."

Although the trip to Lingwu Temple was not very pleasant as she met Liu San and the others, she really liked this painting.

She never knew that she could be so beautiful in the eyes of others!

"nice! You love it!"

Hu Mengyao had seen enough and started yelling, "Xia Tian, where's mine? Is my painting finished?"

Xia Tian glanced at her and said, "You haven't decided on a wedding date yet, so of course the painting isn't finished yet."

"Then I'll ask my mother to set a date for me as soon as possible." Hu Mengyao has already started looking forward to getting married for the sake of the portrait.

"You have no shame!" Xia Tian laughed at her. "You have to wait until the Spring Examination is over next year, right?"

"Hehe, it doesn't matter. Just prepare it for me first." Hu Mengyao laughed, "Remember, make sure you draw me as pretty as Sister Wen!"

"Alas! You're asking too much." Xia Tian pretended to sigh, "Wen Jin is beautiful because she has a beautiful face, so she can be painted beautifully. Do you understand?"

"What do you mean? Are you saying that I'm not good-looking?" Hu Mengyao glared at her angrily.

"Hey! Don't move. You look best like this. Let me write it down!" Xia Tian walked forward seriously and observed carefully. "You are so cute when you are angry!"

"You!" Hu Mengyao was so angry that she stepped forward to slap her.

"Hahaha!" Wen Jin and Lin Sayu stood by and laughed so hard that they bent over. These two were really funny. They always joked with each other whenever they met.

The laughter in the room attracted other ladies who came to add makeup and also came over here.

There were already a lot of people adding makeup today.

Xia Tian just came over, so the three of them separated from the others to come and greet her.

Because Xia Tian was not familiar with the others, Wen Jin was afraid that she would feel uncomfortable, so the three of them talked in a corner.

The laughter of several people at this time naturally attracted other people's attention.

Those who were curious came over.

"What are you laughing at?" The person asking the question was the second daughter of the Minister of Justice Wan.

Miss Wan Er's temperament is similar to Hu Mengyao's.

And her elder sister, the legitimate Miss Wan, was the daughter-in-law that Liu had suggested to Shen Ke.

At that time, Liu actually had her eyes on Lin Sayu, but unfortunately the Lin family rejected her. Later, she had to settle for Miss Wan.

Because Miss Wan's biological mother died early, she was raised by her stepmother, who is Miss Wan'er's biological mother.

He was a bit weak in character, but he was good-looking and looked gentle and frail. Liu felt that although he was not the best choice, he was easy to control, so she decided on him.
