The fake daughter married into the mountains and had meat to eat every day during the famine

The two adults, Song Jinsheng and Mu Qiu, had few things and were efficient. As soon as Song Yuntang picked up the things, the two of them packed up their things and moved to the backyard.

Seeing Liu standing there holding the child, Song Jinyuan said while packing up his things, "Tang'er's back room is a thousand times more comfortable than our own home. Don't be reluctant. Jinsheng and his sister-in-law have already moved. It's not just us who are being asked to move. You take the child to the backyard first, and I'll pack up the things here."

He turned and looked outside the house.

"Look, Tang'er is personally watching the servants decorate the courtyard. It's obvious that the person coming tomorrow is of extraordinary status. If we really lived in the same courtyard with such an important person, I would feel very uncomfortable."

Liu followed his gaze. Although there was still no smile on her face, she didn't say anything more. She carried the child to the backyard.

……

The next day, before noon, an ordinary carriage stopped at the gate of Xu's mansion.

Song Yuntang got up early today and was already waiting at the door when the carriage arrived.

Seeing Li Xian getting off the carriage, she was about to salute, but the boy stepped forward and held her arm.

"No need to be so polite, my lady."

Song Yuntang made a gesture of invitation towards the courtyard.

"The yard has been cleaned up for you, Master. I'll take you there. If there's anything else that needs improvement, just tell me."

Li Xian nodded and followed her into the mansion.

While looking at the flowers and plants here, he walked towards the yard that Song Yuntang had cleaned up yesterday.

"I didn't expect that the county lady also likes to tend to flowers and plants."

Song Yuntang smiled gently, "Everyone has to do something, it's just to kill time when I have nothing to do."

When they arrived at the yard, Li Xian exchanged glances with Yixian who was standing beside him.

Then Jianyi took out a box from his luggage and handed it to him.

Li Xi'an took it and handed the box towards Song Yuntang.

"This is what I asked my father for before I left the palace. Please accept it, my lady."

Song Yuntang took the box with a puzzled look on his face, opened it and saw an imperial edict and a golden medal of immunity from death.

She looked puzzled.

"This is?"

Li Xi'an smiled.

"The county lady is new to the capital, so I guess she's not used to the kneeling ceremony here. So I asked my father..." He paused, "I asked my father for permission. If the county lady can cure my illness, this golden medal of immunity from death will be hers, and she won't have to kneel down to enter the palace in the future."

Song Yuntang was surprised.

It is said that serving the emperor is like serving a tiger. Now that she is in the capital, the gift in her hand is more valuable than gold, silver and jewelry.

She looked at Li Xi'an.

"The eldest master treats me so well, but is it because of your mother?"

There were painters in the palace who specialized in painting portraits of the emperor and the ladies. The late queen must have left behind a portrait before she passed away.

She didn't know how much she resembled the late queen.

But looking at the expressions of everyone in the Tang Mansion and the Empress Dowager and the Emperor, the similarity should be quite high.

Li Xian did not deny it.

"I have seen my mother's portrait. You two do bear some resemblance, but not exactly. I do not deny that my mother was the reason I asked for these things for the county lady. But if my father does not want these things, he will not grant them to me even if I ask him."

Song Yuntang smiled and closed the box.

"In this case, I must do my utmost to take care of the eldest master's health."

"You don't have to feel stressed, County Lady." Li Xi'an, perhaps a little exhausted from standing for so long, reached out and supported Yixian's arm. "I'm going to stay here to recuperate. I don't know how long I'll have to live under the same roof with you and your family. If you don't mind, you can call me Xi'an."

"it is good."

Seeing that his face was a little pale, Song Yuntang hurriedly helped him walk towards the main house.

"Xi'an, you've been exhausted all the way here. You should go back to your room and rest. After I check your pulse, I'll prepare some medicinal soup and food for you. After you eat, take a bath in the medicinal soup an hour later. You just arrived today, so rest is the priority. Tomorrow morning, I'll teach you the Five Animal Exercises. If you're feeling exhausted at first, you can start with a quarter of an hour and gradually increase the time."

"After the Five Animal Exercises, take a short break and continue soaking in the medicinal bath. After the medicinal bath, I will give you acupuncture."

Li Xi'an nodded.

"it is good."

Zhu Ling, who was carrying a large box and following behind the others, spoke.

"May I ask, County Master, how long will it take for the Master to see results in this situation?"

Song Yuntang glanced behind him. Although the woman who was speaking was wearing ordinary clothes, her eyes and brows were sharper than those of ordinary women. She must be a martial artist like Xia Ning.

I just don't know who is better at martial arts between the two.

"We'll see some initial results in seven days." He turned to her and asked, "This is Miss Zhu Ling, right?"

Zhu Ling nodded.

"Yes, your servant Zhu Ling greets the Princess of Le'an County."

After sending Li Xian'an into the house, Song Yuntang went to prepare the medicinal food himself.

Although she was not a martial artist, her senses were quite sharp. When she came out of Li Xian'an's yard, she clearly felt that there were many more pairs of eyes in the dark.

He must have been sent by the emperor to secretly protect the eldest prince.

She knew that the emperor could not have sent only one attendant and one palace maid to accompany the eldest prince out of the palace.

……

In the direction of the backyard, Liu peeked into the front yard with the child in her arms, and saw Song Yuntang leading a thin but noble child into the yard, with a slightly puzzled look on her face.

"I thought Tang'er's guest was some important person, but why is he just a child?"

"Although he's just a child, his attire and demeanor are not common in ordinary families." Song Jinyuan reminded her, "Remember Tang'er warned us yesterday. We should avoid him on weekdays and try not to disturb the peace of that distinguished guest."

Liu glanced at him.

"Need you to tell me? Do you think I'm so unreliable?"

After saying that, he turned around and walked into the house with the child in his arms.

They are Tang'er's family, and they share the same fate.

Since Tang'er reminded her again and again, this child must be of noble status, so she would naturally pay attention.

After coaxing the child to sleep, Liu saw Song Yuntang carrying medicinal herbs and fresh ingredients into the kitchen on a bamboo basket. She hurried in to help her.

Seeing this, Song Yuntang did not stop him.

"Sister-in-law, is Manman asleep?"

Liu nodded.

"I'm asleep." She looked in Song Yuntang's direction while helping him. "Tang'er, there's something I want to ask your opinion on."

Song Yuntang raised his eyes, with doubt in his eyes.

"what's up?"

Liu stopped what she was doing.

"I've been thinking that there are more opportunities in the capital than in Rongshu Village. I want to convince my parents to buy a yard here and live there. What do you think?"

"A courtyard in the capital isn't cheap. It'll cost you several hundred taels." Song Yuntang looked at her. "Besides, have you ever thought about how you'll make a living after settling down here?"
