With the help of the second housekeeper, Xu Shichu selected the slaves he needed and asked a few guards to take them back to the Prime Minister's Mansion for placement. Then he went to the largest medical clinic in the capital.

When people at the medical center saw Xu Shichu coming in with a team of well-trained servants, they immediately realized that she was an extraordinary person. Although they didn't recognize her as a noble person for a while, they still didn't dare to neglect her, so they asked her kindly.

The old doctor came up to receive her.

"Madam is fine, but do you need to seek medical advice?"

"Yes, I need to recuperate my body." Xu Shichu nodded, sat in front of the pulse table and stretched out his thin hands.

Although the old doctor was a little confused as to why the noble lady did not invite the doctor to come to the clinic for treatment, but went to the medical clinic herself, he did not want to meddle in other people's business, so he treated Xu Shichu as an ordinary patient.

The old doctor carefully observed Xu Shichu's face, focusing on the color of his eyes and lips for a long time, then frowned and took Xu Shichu's pulse.

After checking for a long time, the old doctor said: "Madam, your pulse is thin and weak, hard and slow, which is a sign of deficiency of both qi and blood, and various types of fatigue and fatigue. It is also floating and weak, which is due to insufficient yin and is a cold syndrome. Most of them are inverse limbs."

Cold, heat-related injuries, excessive sweating, and inability to digest food...If not properly treated and nursed back to health, life expectancy will be hindered."

The old doctor said a lot. In short, he said that Xu Shichu's physical condition was very poor and he was suffering from severe losses. If he didn't take good care of himself, he wouldn't live long.

Xu Shichu had already been mentally prepared for this, so he said calmly: "Then I'll ask the doctor to prescribe a prescription for me."

The old doctor looked at Xu Shichu, hesitating to speak. Perhaps he was wondering why her body was so bad despite her extraordinary status. Looking at her physical condition, it was obvious that she had many hidden dangers since she was a child, not just the loss of Qi and blood.

, as well as meridian blockage left by trauma.

Obviously, this lady's life is not as good as she appears.

Xu Shichu pretended not to notice the old doctor's expression. While she was waiting for the medical staff to give her medicine, she bought some other medicinal materials, which she had other uses for.

After coming out of the medical clinic, Xu Shichu didn't go anywhere else and went directly back to the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Only two servant girls were left to train the newly purchased slaves, and the others were returned to Luo Yaqing by Xu Shichu.

When Xu Shichu returned to his small, remote courtyard, he felt weak all over and dizzy. His health was so bad that he couldn't bear to go out to do such a small thing.

She ordered someone to boil the medicine and then lay down on the bed to have a good rest.

In the study of Luo Changqing of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Luo Changqing had already come out of the palace. He frowned and looked at the documents in his hand, and asked the second housekeeper who was standing with his hands lowered: "What did Mrs. Xu go out to do today?"

The second housekeeper then told everything Xu Shichu had done, including asking the eldest lady for servants, returning to her parents' home to get rid of dowry, buying slaves, and seeing a doctor. Everything was explained clearly and carefully, even Xu Shichu and Xu Shichu

Zhou's dispute and the medical doctor's pulse check were all explained clearly.

Luo Changqing was a little surprised when he heard this. He didn't even read the documents in his hand and said, "Why is this Mrs. Xu so different from her previous personality? How dare she scold her eldest aunt and hit her step-sister? She is not

Are you being bullied to death by the people in that mansion?"

The second housekeeper looked at Luo Changqing carefully and saw that his face was only surprised and not disgusted, so he said:

"Perhaps I have finally escaped from the wolf's den and no longer need to hide myself or show weakness in order to survive?"

The second housekeeper himself found a reasonable reason for Xu Shichu. He listened to the old doctor telling him the true condition of Xu Shichu's body. His body was not even comparable to that of the little girl who made the fire in the Prime Minister's Mansion. The little girl who made the fire could do it.

She had no worries about food and clothing, but Xu Shichu, as a serious young lady in Uncle Ningyuan's house, had neither enough food nor clothing to keep her warm, and suffered mistreatment, which made the second housekeeper, a servant, sympathize with her.

Luo Changqing listened to the second housekeeper's words and nodded, somewhat understanding Xu Shichu. After all, she had lived under such a cruel stepmother. If she had not restrained her temper and endured the humiliation, she would probably not have survived to get married.

And now that she has arrived at the Prime Minister's Mansion, although he cannot regard her as his real wife, he has given her the dignity as the Prime Minister's Mansion's wife. It just depends on how she uses this dignity in the future.

Three months after getting married, Luo Changqing saw that she still had the same cowardly and submissive look. He thought that was her true character and couldn't change it. Unexpectedly, she impressed him today. Not only did she deal with the dowry vigorously and resolutely,

The Diao slave also began to take care of his body, looking like he had changed his face and lived a good life.

Luo Changqing is happy to see her change. After all, even if she is just a nominal mistress of the Prime Minister's Mansion, she still has to go out to socialize. If she is weak and can be bullied, it will not be a good thing for the Prime Minister's Mansion.

I didn't care about her before, just thinking that she couldn't be held up by mud. Now that she is no longer mud, I can help her.

"As long as she abides by her duties and does not interfere in the affairs of the young master and the young lady, then whatever she wants will satisfy her." Luo Changqing ordered that he would give her the dignity of the prime minister's wife, as long as she is smart enough.

"Yes!" the second housekeeper replied, feeling happy for Xu Shichu in his heart.

Xu Shichu didn't know that she had much greater power, but she felt a good change in her clothing, food, housing and transportation the next day. Beautiful clothes and jewelry were delivered in a stream, the breakfast was much more delicious, and the dilapidated yard was completely different.

Construction has begun, and the flowers and plants in the garden have also begun to be planned...

From this day on, Xu Shichu began to feel the joy of life that she should really enjoy as the wife of the Prime Minister.

After lunch, she was lying on the porch basking in the sun, and saw several servants arranging flowers and plants in the yard.

Xu Shichu called them over and said: "Except for the precious ones, you should pull out all the ordinary flowers and plants and clear out the spare land. I have my own plan for what flowers and plants to plant in the future."

The servants did as she asked.

Xu Shichu didn't have any leisure time to plant flowers and grass. She planned to plant flowers and plants that could be used as spices, such as bergamot, mint, osmanthus, plum blossoms, magnolia and other flowers that could be used in a variety of spices.

After Xu Shichu went through her meager dowry last night, she found a spice shop and a bookstore, so she planned to develop her spice shop.

And it happened that she traveled to the last world and became a maid specializing in perfumery next to the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother had long been the ultimate winner of the previous harem, and the current emperor's harem had nothing to do with the Queen Mother, so Xu Shichu felt quite comfortable being the Queen Mother's maid.

Yes, she only needs to concentrate on blending the fragrance, which gives her the time and conditions to delve deeply into the craft of spices.
