The next day.

Shen Yijia sent Brother Hao and the others to the academy and brought Mo Yuan to visit Madam Qiu.

It was only when Song Jingchen mentioned it that Shen Yijia realized that the emperor knew what had happened in the capital so quickly because of Dean Lu’s help.

As for why Song Jingchen knew, it was because the Imperial Official, Vice Minister Zhao, had told him yesterday.

Vice Minister Zhao was Dean Lu’s student.

Madam Qiu often talked about Shen Yijia, but she could not leave the house often with her weak body.

Dean Lu couldn’t find a reason for Shen Yijia to visit, so he asked Old Master Zhao to mention this to Song Jingchen and tactfully said that Madam Qiu liked Shen Yijia a lot.

Song Jingchen was not at home during the day, but Shen Yijia would tell him what had happened at home every day. Naturally, he knew that Madam Qiu had once visited.

Even the set of Four Treasures of the Study that Madam Qiu had given to Shen Yijia was given to him by Shen Yijia. It was still placed in his study.

Shen Yijia didn’t understand the value of that gift, but Song Jingchen did. To scholars, any one of them was a priceless treasure.

Moreover, Song Jingchen was happy to see Shen Yijia gain another backer.

At least when he was not around, if anything happened to Shen Yijia, she would not be so isolated in the capital.

When Shen Yijia arrived, Madam Qiu had just woken up. When she heard that Shen Yijia had arrived, she quickly instructed someone to prepare tea.

Previously, Shen Yijia was worried that she had caused trouble, so she did not have the time to appreciate this courtyard. At this moment, she looked at the fruits on the grape vines.

She couldn’t help but reach out and grab a grape and stuff it into her mouth. It was so sour that she quickly spat it out.

Madam Qiu came out of the house and happened to see this scene. She smiled and said, “It’ll only ripen in a month. If you like it, I’ll get someone to send some to you after you pluck it.”

Nanny Lan helped Madam Qiu sit down on the stone bench and teased, “Our Madam personally planted these grapes. They’re sweeter than those bought outside. In the past, only the empress dowager could get a share. This year, Madam Song is in luck.”

Shen Yijia’s eyes lit up. “That’s good.”

These words successfully made Madam Qiu and Nanny Lan laugh.

Shen Yijia was speechless.

She was here to thank them, so she naturally brought a gift.

Madam Li had prepared the gifts. Among them was a wild ginseng that was more than a hundred years old. Shen Yijia had dug it up when she was in Xiagou Village.

The wild ginseng roots were intact. It did not look cheap.

Surprise flashed across Madam Qiu’s eyes. “I’m already very happy that you can come and see me. Why did you bring such an expensive gift?”

Shen Yijia scratched her head. “I heard from my husband that it was all thanks to the dean’s help last time.”

There were still a few such wild ginsengs at home, so they were not considered expensive. She originally wanted to give them a few gold bars, but Madam Li said that it was not appropriate.

Madam Qiu was stunned and immediately understood the cause and effect of Shen Yijia’s visit. She was helpless and amused by Dean Lu’s actions.

Shen Yijia chatted with Madam Qiu for a while and suggested that Mo Yuan take her pulse.

This was also the reason why she specially brought Mo Yuan along.

Madam Qiu glanced at Mo Yuan and did not refuse.

After taking Madam Qiu’s pulse, Mo Yuan said, “Madam, don’t take the medicine from before. It’s weak and can’t nourish you. It looks effective in the short term, but it’s actually draining your vitality.”

Nanny Lan was shocked. Madam had been taking medicine concocted by Miss Ji these days.

She looked at Madam Qiu and opened her mouth.

Madam Qiu shook her head, indicating that she did not have to say anything else. She turned to Shen Yijia and asked, “This is?”

Shen Yijia said, “She taught me medicine.”

Although she had only learned a little, it was not a lie. This also made sense for her to save someone.

As expected, Madam Qiu did not suspect anything. She looked at Mo Yuan more seriously.

Mo Yuan did not prescribe a prescription for her. Madam Qiu was a cla.s.sic medicine jar. Ordinary medicine was no longer effective on her body. If she used heavy medicine, it would be no different from the medicine she had originally taken.

“Then… doesn’t my madam need to take her medicine?” Nanny Lan expressed her doubts.

Mo Yuan glanced at Shen Yijia. “I’ll make some health pills in a few days. When the time comes, Madam only needs to eat that.”

Although she was already used to it, no one liked to take medicine. In addition, she trusted Shen Yijia.

Madam Qiu immediately asked Nanny Lan to bring Mo Yuan to the pharmacy to see what medicine was needed. They could take whatever they had here. If they didn’t, they would send someone out to find it.
