Chapter 183: Grandmother's Condition Improves

~7 min read 1,299 words

I never expected what knowledge he had learned or what skills he had mastered; she had corresponding points for all of them here. Previously she didn't pay attention, but recently she exchanged for a life-preserving pill and began to value the points.

Yes, but grandmother cannot use it.

The medicine I give grandmother to take is very precious; a person can only take one in a lifetime, to preserve vitality and prevent it from scattering.

The effect is long-lasting; it will continually exert its effect in grandmother's body, regulating her body.

However, because the effect is too strong, a person's body cannot withstand two.

These were specially introduced by the exchange space when she exchanged them.

So that's how it is!

Kang Mengxian calmed down; in the past two days, the old lady's spirits improved a bit, she kept pulling him to talk about Yun Chu's affairs, everyone thought Yun Chu had gone to the Kang Fu, the old lady became happy, and thus her mood improved, and her physical condition followed.

But this has continued into the third day; the old lady's mental state keeps getting better, and today she already went out for a stroll.

Only then did he realize something was wrong; he hurriedly submitted a petition to the palace, asking the emperor to issue an imperial edict, and brought the imperial physicians back to the residence.

Upon investigation, there's no problem.

The old lady's body kept improving; former injuries disappeared, the previously faint pulse regained strength.

Upon further inquiry, the two daughters-in-law said it was Yun Chu who gave the old lady medicine to eat.

Yun Chu, maternal grandfather...

Jiang Yun Chu hurriedly said, 'Grandfather, you protected me when I was young; I will support you in your old age.'

Kang Mengxian looked at Jiang Yun Chu and said, 'Good, good.'

The old man has been strong all his life, upholding the Kang Clan; as long as the Kang Clan does not fall, he can protect Yun Chu.

Now she has grown up.

Today I have class this afternoon; tomorrow I will go to the Kang Fu to see grandmother and prepare some other pills for her.

Alright, I won't tell grandmother first; otherwise she won't sleep all night, she'll keep asking all night whether Yun Chu will really come tomorrow.

Grandfather learned to speak like grandmother; after finishing, the grandfather and grandchild laughed together.

These days, the stone weighing on Kang Mengxian's heart was suddenly moved.

He, Kang Mengxian, is from a humble background, holding the position of prime minister, which he achieved step by step.

In order to protect the whole family, he also chose to retire bravely.

The old lady accompanied him all the way, enduring hardship and injury; seeing her body deteriorate, his worry and anxiety were placed in his heart.

He did not prevent the old lady from seeing Yun Chu; the imperial physicians had instructed that the old lady's body cannot withstand too great emotional fluctuation.

Coincidentally, Yun Chu is the person who can most cause the old lady's emotions to fluctuate.

He dare not!

After the grandfather and grandchild chatted a while longer, Kang Mengxian went to Ningguang Yuan; these days his lessons have basically been covered by Ningguang, and now that the old lady's body is better, he also needs to start preparing lessons.

Time flew by; in a blink, half a month passed; on the signboard of a shop in Jingdu, red silk was hung, filling it with a sense of mystery.

"Princess Consort, hasn't the time come yet?" Zi Su looked at the sun; which shop opens directly at noon?

Outside, a crowd had gathered, each craning their necks to look, not knowing what the shop sold.

Jiang Yun Chu took a sip of tea, then spoke unhurriedly: 'Later is also fine.'

Su Xin had Little Six following her; the two had just returned from the workshop, the molds are now in place, and following the Princess Consort's orders, they have begun mass production.

A crowd gathered outside, saying, 'If the Regent Prince's Manor sells rouge and powder, we will immediately smash the shop and then report to the Jingzhao Prefecture.'

A person dressed as a servant, but the jade pendant at his waist exposed his identity.

Exactly the Young Master of the Cao family, Cao Shuyun.

"Yes, Young Master, please rest assured." The surrounding crowd gathered, each with a fierce expression.

Now these prescriptions all belong to the Cao manor.

If the Regent Prince's Manor uses them, it will be theft of the Cao family's prescriptions; when the time comes, they will be reported to the Jingzhao Prefecture, and not a single person from the Regent Prince's Manor will escape.

The people who had just gathered dispersed again.

At the shop's gate, Jiang Yun Chu held a cup of clear tea in one hand and a book in the other, ignoring the surrounding commotion, reading attentively.

"Older sister, we're here." At that moment, a girl walked over, holding two children's hands.

The little girl walked over, 'Mommy~'

The little boy walked over, looked, and also called out, 'Mommy?'

Jiang Yun Chu looked at Jiang Yun Hui; the corners of their mouths twitched. Jiang Yun Hui hurriedly pulled Zhi Dong over, saying, 'Call the Dean.'

"Dean." Kang Zhi Dong was very obedient, immediately repeating the words.

Jiang Yun Chu rose from the chair, handed the book in her hand to Zi Su on the side; Zi Su quickly put it away.

"Did you learn the children's song I taught you?" she asked gently.

Ning Yue Xue immediately patted her little chest, 'Mommy, rest assured, I've got it.'

That big-sisterly demeanor...

Kang Zhi Dong nodded somewhat honestly.

"Go inside, let Zi Wu change your clothes and then dress up." Jiang Yun Chu had Zi Wu do the hair and makeup for the two; the performance outfits and makeup had already been prepared earlier.

Having the two children participate, disregarding status, is mainly to train their psychological quality.

Psychological quality still needs to be cultivated from childhood.

"Dean."

A sound came from afar; several nimble children weaved through the crowd and arrived before Jiang Yun Chu.

Seeing several people, 'Have you finished school?'

Now there are no watches; she looked at the sun, and it seemed the time was still early.

"Grandfather let us finish school early, saying to come over and help." Kang Zhi Chun smiled and answered on behalf of everyone.

Jiang Yun Chu nodded, "Then... you will be directed by Zhang Cunwen."

They are different from the two children; making them perform something is unnecessary and harmful to their future development.

Rather, let them experience how to handle a disordered stall.

Practice yields true knowledge.

"Yun chu."

Aunt, the eldest aunt and the second aunt, three people came together, and besides them, many women followed.

Jiang Yun Hui was also followed by a group of noble young ladies.

The shop has three floors, and behind it there is also a courtyard.

"Everyone has come, please sit here for a moment." Jiang Yun Chu had everyone sit at the side, under the awning that had been set up in advance.

Everyone had just taken their seats when a few young ladies frowned; before they could speak, Zi Su led a group of people out from the side.

"The weather is a bit hot; please try the Wang Fu's fruit tea."

These are all future gods; how could she dare to neglect them?

Everyone looked at the transparent cup, which resembled a seven-colored gemstone, and its unique shape was surprisingly tall—could this still be called a cup?

Inside the cup is a straw; this straw is made from reed stalks through a special process, becoming like this now, not easily broken, and it can also deform.
