After the separation, the family had a lot of fish and meat every day, and the best was furious

Seeing the old lady's face full of needles, Xiaojudu and Qu Yuanxun felt so distressed.

Qu Yuanxun even wished he could bear it for his mother. It was all his fault.

The needle has been inserted, but it needs to be left there for a stick of incense. Lin Ting washed his hands and waited aside.

Qu Yuanxun invited Lin Ting and Xiaoju to the side room and asked Lin Ting with a heavy heart.

"Mrs. Lin, tell me the truth. Can my mother be cured?"

Qu Yuanxun was afraid that what Lin Ting had said just now in front of Old Madam Qu was not sincere.

“Don’t worry, Master Qu. Madam Qu’s illness can be cured, and only acupuncture can do that.

As long as you apply moxibustion once every three days, you will slowly recover. It may take a month at the fastest, or more than three months at the slowest. In short, I am confident that this disease will be cured."

Qu Yuanxun couldn't bear the thought of having to use the needle for such a long time.

"As long as it can be cured, it must be treated. Madam Lin, is there anything we need to pay attention to during my mother's treatment?"

Xiaoju also nodded. Although she was dazed, she knew that the old lady was the best to her.

"Just eat normally. The most taboo thing is to avoid getting angry. During this period, let the old lady be calmer.

If you find that her drooling becomes more severe, please contact me immediately."

Drooling?

Qu Yuanxun looked at Xiaoju. It seemed like he had never seen his mother drooling.

"Xiaoju, are you and mother hiding something from me?"

Xiaoju was frightened by Qu Yuanxun's sharp questioning and immediately knelt in front of Qu Yuanxun with tears in her eyes.

"Sir, the old lady was afraid that you would worry, so she didn't let us tell you.

Her face was stiff and sometimes she couldn't chew her food and could only eat liquid food.

He likes to drink sour plum soup because he can suck it into his mouth through a straw.

The old lady has been drooling due to her illness, but she always wipes it off with a handkerchief. This is why she doesn't like to go out.

My Lord, you are busy with government affairs every day, and the old lady doesn't want her affairs to affect you.

She always pretends to be nice in front of you, but she endures the pain behind your back silently."

If Lin Ting hadn't discovered these symptoms, Qu Yuanxun might have been kept in the dark his entire life.

"Xiaoju, get up. Don't tell the old lady what happened today."

"Thank you, sir."

"Serve the old lady well from now on, and tell me immediately if anything happens."

Xiaoju: "Yes, sir."

"Mrs. Lin, my mother's affairs are entirely dependent on you."

Lin Ting: "I will try my best."

When the time came, Lin Ting went to get the silver needle for Old Lady Qu.

As soon as the silver needle came out, she only felt a sour and refreshing sensation on her face, and her nerves seemed to be able to sense something.

She reached out and touched his face, which was already full of wrinkles.

This feeling seemed to be more effective than the countless times she had taken medicine.

"Madam, today is the first time I'll give you acupuncture. I'll come and give you acupuncture every three days.

Soon you'll be like a normal person, trust me."

Mrs. Qu was very happy inside. Ever since her face became like this, her activities were limited to this yard.

She no longer sees strangers, and even if she does, others think she is arrogant and looks down on others.

Because her face is always cold, it leads to a lot of misunderstandings.

"Your name is Lin Ting?"

"Yes, old lady."

Old Madam Qu stood in front of Lin Ting. Although she could not make any facial expressions, her shining eyes were enough to represent her mood.

"Lin Ting, you know, my face seems to be able to move a little bit now. I really don't know how to thank you. This facial paralysis has troubled me for a long time.

I thought the rest of my life would be like this, but you brought me hope. You are truly my lucky star."

"You are too polite, old lady. You are a lucky person."

The more Mrs. Qu looked at Lin Ting, the more she liked him. This was not the first time she had seen Lin Ting.

Lin Ting had seen him once the last time she came to the county government office with her sister.

Xiaoju also told her that Lin Ting was married and there was a girl who often played at Wanhetang.

"Good boy, I am an old woman who is lonely. When you have time in the future, you can come to my place often to talk with me."

Madam Qu doesn't want to see anyone, so Xiaoju is the only one by her side, but who doesn't want a more lively atmosphere?

"Okay, the Tea House in the county is opened by my sister and me. As long as I have time, I will definitely come."

Seeing that Mrs. Qu was rarely happy, Xiaoju immediately took out the cakes that Lin Ting had brought and coaxed her to eat some.

"Madam, these cakes were brought by Madam Lin. Why don't you have some? You haven't eaten anything since yesterday."

In front of Lin Ting, Xiaoju knew that the old lady would eat a little even for Lin Ting's face.

As expected, Mrs. Qu glanced at Xiaoju, then picked up a piece of cake on the oil paper in her hand and started eating.

This pastry is soft and fluffy, melts in your mouth, is not very sweet, and has a light tea fragrance.

Mrs. Qu had never eaten such delicious pastries before. To be precise, this was not a pastry at all, but more like a snack that made people want to eat more.

"This! Is this the pastry you made, Lin Ting?"

After Mrs. Qu finished eating, she took another piece and put it in her mouth, which made Xiaoju and Qu Yuanxun very happy.

"No, this is our Tea House's cloud cake. It's soft and sweet. My sister grinds tea leaves into powder and adds special craftsmanship to make it."

Tea House!

Mrs. Qu remembered these three words. She used to like making pastries, but she rarely did so since she fell ill.

"Your sister is very skilled. It would be great if I could learn a thing or two from her."

Lin Ting felt that what the old lady said was really true. His sister lived not far from the county government office, and every time she returned home, there was no one to talk to.

The Tea House closes early in the evening, so why not come here and walk around with Madam Qu, so that neither of you will be lonely.

"Madam Qu, my sister also wants to find someone to talk to. You can make cakes, and my sister lives a little away from the county government office.

When my sister comes back, I will tell her to come and learn some cooking skills from you."

"Okay, if she has time, just ask her to come over. I'm always here."

Mrs. Qu was very interested, as this was one of her hobbies.

After returning to the Tea House, Lin Ting told Lin Lin about this matter.

Lin Lin understood and she would definitely make friends with this old lady Qu.

Only by building relationships can we establish greater prestige in Wenzhu County.

She had not read the books these days in vain, and she also knew that since she and Lin Ting were two women doing business here, it was inevitable that some people would be jealous and bully them.

"Sister, I think this is a good opportunity. After all, Old Lady Qu is Mr. Qu's mother. If we have a good relationship with her, we will have a protective umbrella."

"Yeah, I understand. One day we have to become strong ourselves. No umbrella can protect us forever."

What Lin Lin said was right. Lin Ting also discovered that since her divorce from Li Ergou, Lin Lin has become more and more different.
