Chapter 282: Progress

After A Lian took this trip, she felt more confident. Looking at great lady`s calm appearance as if she would definitely won the battle, she thought, second lady`s unlucky day was not far away.

Not because she was not loyal enough, she was originally the maid of the Ye family, great and second lady were both her master. The great lady had already hurt second lady once; it was polite to use the word “despicable” to describe her. She never knew repentance. Even Hexiang, her favorite maid, was going to betray her. It can be seen how failed second lady was in life, and she was unlucky to follow such a ruthless master.

Therefore, she was right to stand on great lady’s side. A Lian thought like this, relieved her heart’s burden and became brisk.

Xia Chunyu had already taken a bath and changed into a plain suit of stone blue. He heard the dialogue between Yaoyao and A Lian through the assorted nirvana.

It seemed that Yaoyao had already had a mature plan. It was shameful to say that he should have done those things to get justice for Yaoyao, but Yaoyao was not willing to forgive him now. He had no idea at all.

He always thought it was not his style to have long-term love for children. It was only at the last moment that he knew that the hero was sad about beauty and man of iron also had tender feelings.

Fine, this time, he secretly stared at it, and when she needed help, he would come up.

When A Lian left, Xia Chunyu came in. Just now, he was still a cold-faced man who became weak for a second, covering his stomach and disgruntled: “Yaoyao, the medicine has been taken and my stomach is not feeling well.”

He pretended so well that Ye Jiayao couldn’t tell the difference and wondered if the doctor had taken too much medicine.

“Lie down, hurry up.” Ye Jiayao’s tone, though still cold, showed concern on the surface.

Xia Chunyu gave a whoop of weakness and grumble to his bedroom and fell on the bed.

Er … Ye Jiayao wanted to say, it was my bed, you should sleep on the floor. But when she looked the weak face, she swallowed it back.

Forget it, don’t dispute with the patient.

Ye Jiayao followed him and sat down on the couch opposite him. She said, “Tell you something, Brother Deng and Second auntie Li are leaving Jinling. I bought the Laifu Inn and spent 38,000 yuan.”

Xia Chunyu paused: “Where are they going?”

“It is said to be going to Wuzhou Prefecture, the bride’s family of Second auntie Li.”

“Oh, when will they leave?”

“Tomorrow, I said I was going to send them, but I’ll have all day’s class tomorrow,” Ye Jiayao regretted.

“Then I go!” Xia Chunyu sat up and suddenly remembered that he was pretending to be ill. He quickly covered his stomach:” Oh, it hurts to move.”

Ye Jiayao could not help but frown: “If you feel uncomfortable, lie down and don`t move.”

Xia Chunyu lay down again with stiff movements.

“If you get sick like this, you will be stay at home. Tomorrow, I will let Song Qi to send them.”

Xia Chunyu said regretfully, “It’s unfortunate that I haven’t been ill for several years, but this time I got ill.”

Ye Jiayao’s heart said that it was your entire fault to Insisted on standing outside the door. Didn’t he know how cool it was this autumn night, not to mention the heavy rain last night.

You sent someone to ask if they want to eat dinner today?

Ye Jiayao looked at the direction of the bedroom. He looked like a ghost. If You see him, there would be so much trouble.

Then she said, “You told Madam that I was not feeling well, so I won’t eat, nor did Heir-son Lord.”

Xia Chunyu secretly smiled in the quilt. The medicine was effective. Today, it had gone too far. He went into the house and went to bed. Yaoyao said so many words to him.

Ye Jiayao made the dinner herself. The doctor told her not to eat greasy food and high-protein food such as egg and fish. Yhe patient’s appetite was already not good, if the light food was not well prepared, it would be tasteless and even more difficult to swallow.

Jiang Yue would have done it if Jiang Yue had been there, but now Jiang Yue was completely in the pastry room. The people in this courtyard were all not so good and Ye Jiayao had to do it herself.

The millet gruel simmered slowly and steadily, fried a rotten green vegetable, a three-silk swallow dish, and made several mustard steamed stuffed buns, which were packed in trays and told Qiao Xi to serve them.

Xia Chunyu knew it was made by Yaoyao as soon as he tasted it, he felt a little guilty. He pretended to be ill and hurt Yaoyao.

Qiao Xi could not help but ask, “Heir-son Lord, are you really ill?”

Xia Chunyu booed quickly, looked outside warily and warned in a low voice, “Don’t do me any harm.”

Qiao Xi pursed her mouth and snorted contemptuously, “Xiangtao colluded with you! This bad girl, even hide me from you.”

Xia Chunyu hissed nervously again.

Qiao Xi did not care:” Heir-son Lord, this time second lady has been wronged greatly, and you will have to be better to her later.”

Xia Chunyu said, “You don`t say.”

Hearing footsteps, the two men quickly shut up.

Ye Jiayao came in and saw Chunyu had already eaten half of it. Her heart was secretly relieved that he was well enough to eat.

Xia Chunyu had only eaten half full, but Yaoyao was still here and he had to keep on pretending, so he had to bite the bullet and say, “I can’t eat any more.”

Watching Qiao Xi carry the food away, he should have told Qiao Xi to hide two big steamed buns for him.

Rinse his mouth and Ye Jiayao personally brewed a cup of chrysanthemum tea.

“Drink more water when you catch a cold or fever. Chrysanthemum tea is for clearing heat and detoxifying. Tonight’s task …” Ye Jiayao looked at the cup in her eye and estimated it according to the size of the cup: “Five cups!”

Xia Chunyu said gloomily, “I would pee all night!”

The point was he couldn’t drink scented tea!

But, madam had ordered, husband would do it.

“I`ll drink it.”

Ye Jiayao served this lord, touched his forehead and it did not burn badly, so she went to write her handout safely.

Ye Jiayao was working. Xia Chunyu was not good enough to disturb her. He bored his fingers, proposed to take a book and read it. He was rejected and had to continue to do so.

By the time Ye Jiayao finished the handout, it was already an hour and a half later. She had a good stretch and turned to Chunyu. This guy had fallen asleep with the quilt in his arms and gave out a slight nasal snoring.

Ye Jiayao went softly to wash and came back softly to touch his forehead. Well, the temperature didn’t rise, so he moved to the small square table on the couch and lay down with her clothes.

As soon as the lights went out, Xia Chunyu opened his eyes. His eyesight was excellent. He could see things in the dark after a little adjustment.

The man on the couch was lying on his side. He could see that she didn’t even take off her coat for the convenience of getting up in the middle of the night to take care of him.

Xia Chunyu’s tender feelings rippled in his heart. Yaoyao did not really have to say anything to him. She was still angry, but she still took good care of him.

All of a sudden, that man got up and looked at him. Xia Chunyu closed his eyes.

Ye Jiayao was carrying a heart, and she was afraid of if he needed anything, did not sleep well, and woke up as soon as there was any movement.

That repeated several times which made Xia Chunyu’s heart ache and confess. She was going to have a day’s lesson tomorrow. But she was afraid that Yaoyao will be even angrier when she knew it and could only endure it.

Ah, I should have shown mercy when I hit Lu Xiaochuan. He hit him so happily, but it was Yaoyao who was affected.

Ye Jiayao did not get up until after midnight to check his body temperature once again. He really couldn’t hold up, and then fell asleep.

Xia Chun did not dare to turn over, so he was afraid to wake her up and remained in a daze until dawn.

At daybreak, Ye Jiayao got up and Xia Chunyu looked at her eyes glowing blue, worried: ” Otherwise, let Zhong Xiang go to class today! You also have a rest. ”

Ye Jiayao, while dressing, said, ” How can that be done? I have to prepare before class. Today is my class. Zhong Xiang is not prepared. You let him make a fool of himself!”

The participants in the training course were all cooks with a certain foundation, and they could not be dealt with casually.

“You have a good rest, take medicine, and don’t let me worry,” Ye Jiayao told him.

“Oh, definitely.” Xia Chunyu answered quickly.

Ye Jiayao ordered Xiangtao to take good care of the Heir-son Lord and then left home with Qiao Xi.

At noon lunch break, Little Jing brought Mu Qinchu to the training class.

Three people were talking in the lounge.

Mu Qinchu said: “I’ve met my dad. My dad said he knew Wei Liujiang had bitten him, but he was struggling to defend himself. Also, there were more officials in the household department who had problems. He didn’t bite them out because he wanted someone to help him. Since everyone was sitting on the wall, he had nothing to worry about, and he hoped to be able to redeem himself.”

Ye Jiayao only cared about the Wei family: “What about the Wei family?”

Mu Qinchu said, “My father is very dissatisfied with his uncle. Since he is heartless, we don’t need any handouts. He has this situation only for Wei Liu Jiang’s sake.”

“Funny thing is, uncle came to my house yesterday and asked my mother and I to go to Jinan with him. Hum, we are so difficult now. Ask him to borrow some money and he will send me twenty taels like a beggar. How can I trust him? In Jinan, can we still have a good life on his territory?”

“So, my mother and I decided to go to the government office in the afternoon to file a complaint,” Mu Qinchu gnashed his teeth.

Ye Jiayao turned to ask Little Jing: “If Assistant Minister Mu offers other corrupt officials, will he be able to atone for his achievements?”

Little Jing mused, “If verified, it should be possible.”

Moreover, most of the people in the household department were on King Yu’s side. A large part of King Yu’s benefits csme from the household department. If you could bring the household department into one pot, it will be a heavy blow to King Yu and greatly benefit the prince.

This was Little Jing’s idea, which was related to the party power struggle. He was afraid that Ye Jiayao would think much, so he didn`t tell the truth.

Ye Jiayao said, “Well, Jing will take care of business in the government. You just file the complaint.”

Mu Qinchu handed over his hand and seriously said, ” If my father can ease his guilt this time, the two are the great benefactors of our Mu family. Please accept my respect.”

Ye Jiayao smiled and said, “You and I should each take what we need, or simply treat it as a deal.”

She didn’t want such a debt.

Little Jing said, “If you have written your complaint, show it to me first, and then present it.”
