The general's eldest daughter has a spatial ability

Upon hearing Li Liuyun's words, Nangong Li deflated like a punctured balloon: "Then let's forget about it."

Zhang Tianci brought the pills home and had the maids wash their hands and start filling the pills in the hall.

After about two cups of tea's time, all the pills were packed. Zhang Tianci looked at the densely packed medicine bottles on the table, counted them, and found there were actually two hundred bottles. Zhang Tianci instructed people to pack all the medicines into wooden boxes.

Then he instructed the steward to gather everyone in the mansion in the courtyard. In less than the time it takes to drink half a cup of tea, everyone in the mansion had gathered in the courtyard.

The steward stepped forward and reported: "Master, all the servants, maids, and maids in the manor have arrived. There should be forty-five people, but forty-four are present."

Zhang Tianci frowned upon hearing the butler's words: "How come one person is still missing? Where is the other person?"

The butler whispered, "Master, there's also the maidservant who serves the madam; she's currently locked up in jail!"

Zhang Tianci waved his sleeve: "I don't care if she lives or dies. She dared to harm the madam and caused her to lose two children. She deserves to be torn to pieces. Her life wouldn't be enough to compensate for it!"

Upon hearing Zhang Tianci's words, everyone in the mansion lowered their heads. The events of the day had spread throughout the mansion in less than half a day. Everyone had heard that the lady's dowry maid had tried to climb into the young master's bed and secretly drugged the young lady, causing her to almost miscarry today! Fortunately, the divine doctor saved her, and the young lady was able to keep her child.

Seeing that everyone in the mansion had their heads down, Zhang Tianci nodded to the steward.

The butler stepped forward and said loudly, "I'm sure you've all heard about what happened today. I've gathered you all here because I have two things to say."

First, the Zhang family only has one young mistress, and it always has! The young master will never take a concubine in his life. Anyone who tries to climb into his bed will only face one fate: at best, they will be sold into slavery, and at worst, they will be beaten to death! Your indentures are all in the mansion, so don't have any improper thoughts, lest you bring disaster upon your families.

The affection between the young master and young mistress is evident to all, and they are both kind-hearted. The Zhang family's wages are the highest among all the prominent families.

The young master and young mistress never mistreat their servants. It is your good fortune to serve in the Zhang household! But first and foremost, you must be loyal and not harbor any improper thoughts. I presume you all know what to do from now on?

As soon as the steward finished speaking, the servants in the courtyard immediately knelt down and said, "This servant/madam will do her best to serve the young mistress and young master! We will be loyal to them!"

Zhang Tianci waved his hand and said, "You have all heard today that the young mistress is pregnant. Everyone in the manor will receive a reward of five taels of silver, and this month's allowance will be doubled!"

The servants of the Zhang household were filled with righteous indignation upon hearing this:

"Did I hear that right? The young master said he'd reward me with five taels of silver?"

"Five taels! That's almost a year's worth of our monthly salary!"

"Try pinching me and see if it's real."

"Ouch, it really hurts! I told you to pinch me and see if you could, and you actually did? You pinched me way too hard."

"Hehe, I'd like to know if it's true too!"

Zhang Tianci looked at the crowd below, all of whom had beaming faces, and then looked at the butler, signaling him to continue speaking.

The butler raised his hand: "Quiet, quiet, everyone quiet! The young master's golden words are of course real!"

There's another matter. The head chef of the manor, Liu, has contracted a strange illness. The divine physician has determined the cause: a parasitic plague resulting from his personal dietary habits. The divine physician has bestowed upon him a special elixir; if there are parasites, it will expel them; if not, it will strengthen his body!

This is the statement Zhang Tianci and his wife discussed today. He was afraid that if they told the truth, people would think it was a contagious disease, and that it would cause panic among the public.

They were also worried that the restaurant's customers might cause trouble, and the miracle doctor had said that not everyone has parasites in their stomachs. Anyway, the medicine had been given to them; whether they took it or not was entirely up to them.

Upon hearing about the plague, everyone shrank back and began whispering among themselves.

"Insect plague? I've never heard of that before. Does such a disease exist?"

"So you mean there are worms in your body, right?"

"My God, this is disgusting! There are worms inside my body?"

Zhang Tianci coughed lightly: "The divine physician has bestowed the pills, which will be distributed to everyone today. There are ten pills in this bottle. Adults should take one pill in the morning and one in the evening for three consecutive days. Children should not take them for the time being. The divine physician is currently developing a deworming medicine specifically for children, which should arrive soon."

Upon hearing Zhang Tianci's words, everyone knelt down and said, "Thank you for the medicine, young master!"

Zhang Tianci raised his hand: "Get up, everyone. Steward, distribute the prepared silver and medicine to everyone. I'm going to check on Brother Liu. Give me Brother Liu's medicine."

The butler nodded, took out the medicine that Li Liuyun had prepared separately for Liu Yidao, and handed it to Zhang Tianci.

Zhang Tianci turned around and went to Liu Yidao's room, knocking on the door: "Brother Liu, it's me! I've come to bring you medicine."

Upon hearing Zhang Tianci's words, Liu Yidao did not open the door. Instead, he spoke from inside the house: "Young Master, please leave the medicine at the door and tell me how to take it. The young mistress is currently pregnant, and I have the parasitic plague. It would be bad if I infected you."

Zhang Tianci raised his hand to his forehead: "I asked the miracle doctor, and he said it's not that serious. Open the door."

Liu Yidao insisted, "The young mistress is pregnant and cannot afford any mishaps. The young master still trusts me, so just leave the medicine at the door. Please tell the servant who is taking care of me that until I recover, my daily meals should be left at the door and I don't need to come inside."

Seeing Liu Yidao's insistence, Zhang Tianci stopped pressuring him and left the medicine at the door. He then took out a slip of paper from his pocket, which contained the instructions for taking the medicine: "Brother Liu, I've left the medicine at the door. The instructions are on the slip of paper underneath. If you take the medicine and experience any problems, immediately send someone to find me. Your servant is next door."

"Thank you for your concern, young master. I understand," Liu Yidao replied through the door.

Zhang Tianci put down the medicine, turned and left the room. A moment later, the door opened. You Dao took the medicine in, read the instructions, and swallowed two pills.

That evening, Li Liuyun bought another batch of deworming pagoda-shaped candies, unwrapped them, wrapped them in oil paper, and had the innkeeper deliver them to Zhang Tianci. He also distributed deworming medicine to all the inn's staff, instructing them to take it on time.

That evening, just as Li Liuyun had predicted, Nangong Li looked at the table laden with meat and was somewhat amused and exasperated. On the table were braised pork hock, braised pork belly, braised chicken, and two servings of ginseng chicken soup and pork rib soup. There were only two kinds of vegetables.

Wushuang and An Yi drooled at the sight of the dishes. Li Liuyun picked up a piece of braised pork for Nangong Li and served him a bowl of ginseng chicken soup. He said with a half-smile, "Here you are, Your Highness, here is the meat and soup you ordered!"
