Daohua brought medicine to Gu Jian's bandage, and while applying the medicine, she asked: "Master, are you sure there is Ganoderma lucidum over there at Ningmen Pass?" There is Polygonum multiflorum, and she found it the last time she was looking for a gold mine.<

/p>

Gu Jian nodded: "I have met several herb collectors before, and some of their ancestors collected them there." After speaking, he looked at the injuries on his body.

"Most of my injuries are just skin peeling off. I'll take a rest for two days and then I'll take a look."

Daohua said quickly: "You'd better calm down. When I was getting the medicine, my mother-in-law asked me what happened to you."

Upon hearing this, Gu Jian couldn't sit still: "You didn't tell your sister about my injury, right?"

Daohua: "How dare I say that my mother-in-law would be so anxious if she knew you were injured."

Gu Jian breathed a sigh of relief: "It's fine that I didn't say anything."

Over the years, my sister has always felt that she was dragging him down, and she feels very guilty. If she knows that he was injured in order to help her collect medicine, she might be very sad.

Daohua thought for a while and then said: "My mother-in-law's medicine cannot be stopped. Since I am sure that there are Ganoderma lucidum and Polygonum multiflorum in the mountains over Ningmenguan, then I will go look for them. You can stay at home with your mother-in-law."

Gu Jian frowned, not very willing.

Xiao Yeyang spoke at this time: "Master Gu, don't worry, Daohua will be fine as long as I'm with you."

Gu Jian was still a little hesitant.

Daohua smiled and said: "Master, why are you worried about me? I know as much about medicinal materials as you do."

Gu Jian: "...Going to the mountains to find medicine is hard work. You are a girl..."

Daohua interrupted and said: "What's wrong, girl? I'm not the kind of charming young lady who never steps out of the door. I don't mind climbing mountains and ridges. Besides, there's Xiao Yeyang.

"As he said that, he glanced at Xiao Yeyang.

Xiao Yeyang immediately smiled and said: "Master Gu, I will bring enough people so that Daohua will not be tired. She can just help us show the way."

The two took turns persuading each other for a while before Gu Jian nodded.

After the wounds on his body were bandaged, Gu Jian changed into clean clothes. After making sure that Granny Gu wouldn't notice anything, he went out to eat with the two of them.

......

Because she had to collect herbs, Daohua couldn't return to Ningmen Mansion in time, so she wrote a letter to her family and told her the reason. Then she changed into men's clothes early the next morning, packed some things, and took Wang Man'er and Bi

Shi, followed Xiao Yeyang to Ningmen Pass.

While Daohua and Xiao Yeyang were going into the mountains to look for medicine, the Jiang family and the Guo family in Ningmen Mansion were waiting for Xiao Yeyang to visit them.

However, a few days passed, and there was no movement at all from the Xiao Mansion, which made both Mrs. Jiang and Mrs. Guo very dissatisfied.

Guo Mansion.

Mrs. Guo complained to her daughter Guo Xueming: "Master, didn't you say that Yeyang is now old and promising? This is how he became promising? He doesn't understand any etiquette! I am his aunt after all. What happened to him when he came to Ningmen Mansion?

Everyone should come to visit them, but where are the others now?"

Guo Xueming comforted him in a soft voice: "Mom, cousin Yeyang didn't come to our house, but didn't he go to other homes either? Maybe he was delayed by something."

Mrs. Guo shook her head and snorted: "Even if he is a busy man, can't he even spare most of the day? Okay, I will take a step back and treat him as if he is too busy to spare, but he can still express his greetings.

Mr. Zi should know how to hand it over, but did he do it? To put it bluntly, he just didn’t take us seriously."

Now, Guo Xueming didn’t know how to answer the call.

To be honest, this was indeed a breach of etiquette by cousin Yeyang, and I don’t blame my mother for being angry.

Mrs. Guo was silent for a while, then asked her confidant, "That boy from Yeyang didn't come to our house, nor did he go to the Jiang family. So has he been to other houses? For example, the Yan family."

The mother-in-law shook her head: "Our people have always paid attention to Xiao Mansion and have never seen the young prince go out."

Mrs. Guo frowned: "What does that kid do all the time in the house?" After saying that, he paused and asked, "Has anyone visited Yeyang in the past few days?"

The mother-in-law shook her head again: "No."

Mrs. Guo was silent: "This young man of seventeen or eighteen years old, when he is full of energy, who would stay in the house all the time without going out? Is there something wrong with Yeyang?"

The corner of Guo Xueming's mouth twitched, and he said helplessly: "Mother, if you want to see cousin Yeyang, why don't we post a message and invite him to visit us?"

Mrs. Guo shook her head decisively: "No, I am the elder and he is the junior. He should take the initiative to greet me. What's the matter with us rushing up and down the post?"

Guo Xueming: "In this case, we can wait with peace of mind. You are my aunt, and cousin Yeyang will come to see you regardless of emotion or reason."

Mrs. Guo snorted and said nothing.

Chiang Mansion.

Mrs. Jiang also told Jiang Wanying about Xiao Yeyang's fault.

"I thought Xiao Yeyang would learn to behave after years of hard work outside, but now it seems that his temperament is still the same as when he was a child. He doesn't know etiquette and propriety. How can he be like Xiao Yeyang when he is like this?

Are Chen competing for the throne of the crown prince?"

Jiang Wanying couldn't help but said: "Mom, I think Brother Yang has changed a lot, not like what you said."

Mrs. Jiang immediately said: "Then we have been here for so long, why hasn't he come to see us?"

Jiang Wanying stopped talking. After a while, she whispered: "Maybe he doesn't want to see his daughter."

Mrs. Jiang frowned: "What are you talking about?"

Jiang Wanying looked at Mrs. Jiang: "I can feel that Brother Yang is very alienated from me when I come to Zhongzhou this time."

Seeing the sad look on her daughter's face, Mrs. Jiang quickly reassured her, "Don't think too much about it. That kid has been like this since he was a child. He is not very warm to anyone."

Jiang Wanying looked at the vase on the table blankly: "So, I don't have any weight in Brother Yang's heart, just like everyone else." When she was a child, she was the one who took the initiative to talk to him, and she still is now.

When she was young, this was nothing, but now that she has grown up and is a girl, she will be embarrassed if she is asked to take the initiative all the time.

Mrs. Jiang was silent, thought for a while, and asked her confidant, "I asked you to contact Aunt Jia, have you contacted her?"

The mother-in-law shook her head: "Madam, the gatekeepers of the Xiao Mansion are all guards. Oil and salt are not allowed in. Even if the servants ask them to pass a message, they are unwilling. If they go there too many times, they will wave people away."

Mrs. Jiang frowned: "How does this Xiao Yeyang discipline his servants?" She said, pondering for a while, "Keep staring at Xiao Mansion, Grandma Jia will definitely contact us."

The mother-in-law nodded, turned around and went out to deliver the order.

However, what Mrs. Jiang didn't know was that Nanny Jia, whom she wanted to contact, was washing a load of dirty clothes with a numb expression.

Before Defu left, he specifically told him that he would not be given food until he finished washing.

At first, Grandma Jia resisted, but after she was starved for three times, she began to wash clothes obediently with Bi Sha and Dai Yue.

There is no way, there are clothes every day, and today's washing cannot be finished, so it has to be postponed to tomorrow. There are more and more clothes every day, and she can't even think about eating.

Aunt Zhen, who was sitting in the room mending clothes, saw that Aunt Jia and the other three had become almost like rough servants in just a few days, and she felt a little more in awe of the young prince in Prince Ping's Mansion.<

/p>

After Ma's mother and son were straightened up, speaking of it, the situation of the young prince was not optimistic. With the addition of an eldest son, the title of Prince Ping's Mansion may not necessarily belong to him.

The young prince suppressed Aunt Jia just because he did not give the Queen Mother face. In doing so, he either had no brains or was confident in his heart and did not bother to ask for the Queen Mother's support.

Judging from the only meeting a few days ago, this young prince is definitely a powerful person. She has only seen the aura of calm and self-restraint in the emperor and a few powerful princes.<
