After Wang Jingye sent his great-uncle back to Beijing, he immediately rushed back to Zhuangzi.

When he saw his cousin, the first thing he asked was, "Was my great uncle responsible for my father-in-law's accident?"

Queen Mother Wang shook her head and said, "He said no, it was done by the Nie family, but he didn't say who it was."

Wang Jingye held onto the door frame, breathed a sigh of relief, and closed the door after entering.

The Queen Mother briefly explained what her grandfather had said, and Wang Jingye's face was full of disbelief.

He and his cousin pondered over and over again, thinking that their great uncle was teasing them.

It feels like I'm just teasing them. What kind of tempering stone is this? Isn't that nonsense?

"What did he want to do by saying all this? To confuse my cousin? Why did he take my uncle away with him, leaving behind his family, my cousin's mother and daughter? I think my great uncle has another trick up his sleeve."

The Queen Mother did not mention what happened between her grandfather and the late Empress Dowager, nor did she mention that the Emperor's family all had special hobbies. Such matters could only remain secret.

"Grandfather said he didn't have much time left. I saw him coughing up blood, so it doesn't seem like he was faking it. Before you go, ask Doctor An to take his pulse and give him some good herbs."

Wang Jingye agreed. Seeing that his cousin didn't say anything more and got up to leave, he also went back to the farm.

Since his father-in-law's accident was not caused by his great-uncle, he finally felt relieved. Otherwise, he would have been too ashamed to face his wife and brother-in-law.

Who could it be from the Nie family?

Grandmother Nie must know who it is. After her father-in-law passed away, she protected her wife and brother-in-law. Otherwise, how could the children deal with the conspiracy?

Wang Jingye returned to the farm and told his wife that his great-uncle had met his cousin alone. There had been some misunderstandings before, but now they had been resolved. His great-uncle would return home soon.

"It's my uncle's family and my cousin's mother and daughter who will stay. After my great-uncle leaves, we'll go to Suzhou and Hangzhou, and my uncle and his family will live in the house."

Mrs. Wang agreed, and she didn't want to live with the Wang family either.

Old Master Wang really did as he said and returned to Guanzhong with his eldest son.

Queen Mother Wang and the Emperor did not personally escort him out of the city, but sent Eunuch Liang to escort him several dozen miles away.

During this period, Mo Chenxi was busy preparing the betrothal gifts for his eldest son. Apart from the small amount of silver notes left by the original body, the He family had not prepared any betrothal gifts for He Shanluo's marriage.

If they relied on the He family's public servants to prepare a betrothal gift for Shanluo, the marriage would not be possible. Firstly, the He family's public servants did not have any extra money in their accounts, and secondly, the He family wanted to start growing flowers, and the three brothers had already started to think of ways to raise money. Mo Chenxi still supported such a major event.

Mo Chenxi took out the banknotes left by her original body and the profits she had received as dividends and started to make purchases.

However, the general ledger will be recorded, noting the borrowed money, which means it will be repaid in the future.

Since the family has not been divided, the marriages of the sons of the first, second and third wives and the marriages of their daughters will all be borne by the public.

The betrothal gift that Mo Chenxi gave to Shan Luo was recorded on the surface after careful consideration. He did not record too much because the eldest sons of the second and third wives would have to refer to the eldest son of the first wife when they got married in the future.

Apart from those recorded in the book, the rest are additional additions made by the eldest wife. In the future, if the second and third wives want to give their sons more betrothal gifts, they will also have to bear the cost themselves.

In order to prepare the gift list, she went to Cao's house in person. The woman wanted to know the amount of the betrothal gift so that she could prepare the dowry.

Mrs. Cao was very enthusiastic. She took the gift list and glanced at it, saying, "I'm satisfied. I'm satisfied with everything. I'm absolutely satisfied that my daughter Yue'e will be your daughter-in-law. Mrs. Zhao said that if she can find a matchmaker, the mother-in-law will definitely treat her daughter-in-law as her own daughter."

Cao Yue'e lowered her head and blushed behind her grandmother.

Mo Chenxi said, "I like Sister Zhao and Old Madam Zhao the most. They are like real mother and daughter. I told Old Madam Zhao that as long as my daughter-in-law is as cheerful and generous as Sister Zhao, I will treat her as my own daughter. I have a soft personality, I am not good at talking, and I don't get angry easily. I was sick this year, and I don't want the inner house to be in a mess.

"My son and daughter-in-law are living in harmony, so let them live well. The He family house is not big, and it will be crowded with more people."

Old Madam Cao's eyes narrowed with a smile. Madam He meant that she would not put anyone in her son's room.

She thought of Old Madam Jiang, who was ruthless in bullying her daughter-in-law. However, if she wanted to bully her granddaughter-in-law in the future, she would ask her if she agreed.

But I have to explain to my granddaughter that Madam He can't do anything about her mother-in-law, and that's because Lord He listens to his mother. In the future, he should first control his son-in-law and let him take the lead in dealing with that damn old woman.

When Madam Jiang returns to Beijing, she will also meet her. If anyone dares to put someone in her granddaughter's room, she will send someone to the room of the second aunt of the He family.

Mo Chenxi and the Cao family agreed on a betrothal gift and dowry, and she thought about the alcohol she made. She used it on Xiao Xiangming last time, and no one asked her about it after that.

She planned to give this recipe to Wang Dongjia as a reward for his help to the Mo family.

She first went home and told her father, asking him to give it to Wang Dongjia.

Wang Dongjia had wanted to ask the Mo family about the wine that could cool people down, but he didn't have time to pay attention to his great-uncle's visit to Beijing.

After his great-uncle left, the eldest uncle of the Mo family asked him to meet him, so he went to the Mo family.

Mo Yuanji said, "The recipe for the wine I gave to Mr. Nie's brother-in-law last time is here."

He took out the recipe and put it on the table.

"It was Shanluo's mother who said to give this to Wang Dongjia. She said that in our hands, if we take it out and use it, it will be lost sooner or later. It will be of great use to Wang Dongjia."

Wang Jingye stood up and saluted Mo Yuanji, "I was hiding from you, uncle. I wanted to ask you if you could sell me the recipe."

Mo Yuanji waved his hand and said, "No, Shanluo's mother said that if we accept payment, it would be unscrupulous. What the Wang family did to our Mo family was just a prescription. Negotiating the price will hurt the relationship."

Wang Jingye thanked him again solemnly.

"Shanluo's mother said that if this is used on the front lines, it can save many lives. They are all guards of our Great Yan State. Our ability to live and work in peace and contentment is earned by the blood and sweat of those guards. It is the duty of our Mo family to use this for them."

Wang Jingye stood up and saluted again, his eyes moist, "On behalf of the border guards, I salute Uncle Mo."

He remembered what his cousin said: I don't care about being the queen mother and being high and mighty. I just want to be the queen mother. What can I do for the people of the world? I want to protect our land, protect our people, and make sure that they no longer have hunger.

This recipe belongs to Mrs. He. No wonder my cousin is willing to talk to Mrs. He. She also has great principles.

Wang Jingye brought a jar of alcohol into the palace and told his cousin the use of the alcohol and how he had used it to save Xiao Xiangming last time.

The Queen Mother was very excited. After each battle, many guards died due to poor follow-up treatment. The doctors also said that the wounds were festering due to the ineffective tools, and the whole body became hot and could not be cured.

Not to mention the border guards, many civilians died because they could not reduce their fever and delayed their death.

One life after another was lost because of a little bit of uncleanness.

The Queen Mother immediately ordered the Imperial Hospital to conduct experiments on chickens and to check if there were any patients with fever, and to test them one by one.

After giving the order, she remembered that Madam He loved to give chickens as gifts, so she asked Eunuch Liang to pass on the order that the chickens and smoked meat from the Mo family farm be purchased from the palace.
