Chapter 724 The Mysterious West Courtyard (1 more)
The west room in the main courtyard is always locked, and only Miss Bai has the key.
Even when she is not in the village, no one else is allowed to come in and clean.
So every time I come back after a long interval, the room will inevitably be filled with dust.
The first thing she did after coming back was to clean it herself.
While cleaning, he whispered to himself in a low voice.
Just like you did when you were a child, tell your parents what you did during this time.
At this time, she would stay in the West Room for several hours.
She wouldn't come out until she had cleaned the room spotlessly and said everything she wanted to say.
Anyone who has been around Miss Bai for a long time knows this habit of hers, so no one rushed her, and they prepared dinner for her based on the time.
Sure enough, not long after dinner was brought back, people came out of the west room.
Miss Bai's body was still tired from the journey, but her eyes were shining and she seemed to be in a very good mood.
After dinner, someone came forward to clear the table, and the maid asked Rui: "Girl, the hot water has been boiled. You have been working hard all the way, so please wash up and rest early."
But Miss Bai shook her head and said, "Don't worry, I'll go to the West Courtyard first and talk about it when I come back."
As soon as they heard her talking about the West Courtyard, the others immediately fell silent.
Xu Yao'er was very curious, but she was in someone else's territory and didn't dare to ask any questions.
Logically speaking, given her current situation, it's not the time to care about this.
But there are too many secrets in this white girl.
She is now in her thirties and has established a female household of her own. People around her call her a girl, and they don't know if she has ever gotten married or if she has had children.
It has been more than half a year since she rescued her, but Xu Yaoer still doesn't even know what she does.
Just based on her daily spending, I guess her family is well off.
But no matter how curious Xu Yao'er was, she didn't show any signs of it on her face. Instead, she followed the others to put away the dishes and lunch boxes.
Seeing her like this, Wen Rui was quite satisfied and thought that she had really accepted the lesson and changed her gender.
She turned around and went out, passing a sedan over to take Miss Bai to the west courtyard.
Although the west courtyard is also within the farm, it is tightly surrounded by the courtyard wall and cannot be glimpsed from the outside.
Miss Bai got off the sedan and knocked on the door. Soon a low voice came from inside and asked: "Who is outside?"
"It's me, open the door!" Miss Bai said.
Immediately there was the sound of unlocking the door, and the courtyard door was suddenly opened. The person inside said in surprise: "The girl is back?"
After the door opened, the face of a young girl in her early twenties was revealed.
Miss Bai walked in alone, while everyone else stayed outside and waited. The courtyard door was quickly closed and locked again.
"Hongyao, how have things been lately? Is there any progress?" Miss Bai asked after entering.
Upon hearing this, the original surprise on the young girl's face disappeared, replaced by deep guilt and uneasiness.
Hongyao rubbed his hands very uneasily and said: "Girl, I have really failed to live up to your high expectations. Over the past six months, more than a dozen pregnant women have failed to give birth to a baby boy. The only woman who has successfully persisted in giving birth.
In the end, one corpse and two lives were lost due to difficult childbirth..."
When she said this, there was a trace of sadness on her face.
Miss Bai suddenly asked: "Baby boy or baby girl?"
Hongyao was stunned when he heard this, and then realized that she was asking about the person who was having a difficult delivery, and said hurriedly: "It's a baby boy."
When Miss Bai heard this, she immediately became energetic and asked: "Which recipe did she eat? Was it left alone?"
Hongyao nodded and said: "Don't worry, girl, everyone's prescriptions are recorded separately, and they are all traceable. There will never be any confusion."
Miss Bai patted her shoulder very happily and said: "You have always been careful, and you can't be wrong. Grab five more medicines according to that recipe, find five pregnant women and give them to them. The results will be almost ready by the end of the year.
Can’t all five of us have difficulty giving birth?”
Hongyao didn't show any surprise after hearing this. He just thought about it secretly and said, "If you want to find five people to test the medicine, there are not enough qualified mothers in the West Hospital."
As she spoke, she looked up at Miss Bai and asked, "Do you think we should select a few people to conceive by ourselves, or should we go and find a few from outside?"
Miss Bai looked thoughtful when she heard this, and after a moment she said: "It would be easier to look outside, but it is still troublesome. It is better to pick five people from the yard to arrange for conception! Remember, choose those with stronger bones."
Hong Yao nodded and said, "Yes, I understand. I will select the person and hand it over to you tomorrow."
The conversation between the master and the servant did not sound like they were talking about pregnant women and mothers, but rather as cold as cows and horses waiting to be bred in a discussion circle.
But they themselves didn't feel anything was wrong at all. Miss Bai even nodded with satisfaction and asked, "How many of them are taking medicine now?"
“There are only three of them now, one is six months pregnant and currently doing well, and the other two are more than four months old and have just started taking medicine.
"There are still two pregnant women who are only a few months old and haven't started taking medicine yet."
"Let's go, take me there to see the situation."
Hongyao took Miss Bai back.
The structure of the west courtyard is different from other places. In addition to the hall in the front entrance and the five main rooms in the second entrance, the two back entrances were built from the beginning as independent rooms.
There is a young woman living in each room, and in some rooms there are two people living together.
The rooms with the best locations are all occupied by pregnant women.
Miss Bai entered the house one by one, checked the pulses of several pregnant women, asked them very gently about their health conditions, and also cared about whether they were satisfied with their daily food and accommodation. She acted like a caring big sister, without her cold demeanor just now.
Several pregnant women also knew Miss Bai, and were quite happy to see her coming to care about them.
Hong Yao followed behind and said, "Young lady just returned to Zhuangzi this afternoon. After paying homage to the master and his wife, she came to see everyone immediately."
As soon as these words came out, several pregnant women showed expressions of gratitude and tears.
"Why should I be tired? But you, after you get pregnant, you will definitely have to work harder than ordinary people.
"I'm usually not at Zhuangzi, so I can't care about you every day. Now that I'm back, I want to see you first.
"If you have any requirements or dissatisfaction, don't worry, just tell me directly."
"We have good food, drink, and accommodation here, and the sisters can still be together in one place, so why should there be any dissatisfaction? It's not too late for us to thank Miss Bai!" a pregnant woman said first.
Others also hurriedly followed suit.
After Miss Bai came out of the backyard with a smile on her face, the smile on her face immediately disappeared.
She took out a stack of paper from her arms and handed it to Hong Yao and said: "These are the few prescriptions that I have revised in the past six months. You can take them first, and then give them to those who have just become pregnant when they are three months old."
Let them try."
Hongyao took the prescription, but did not agree immediately. Instead, he said with some worry: "The girl's medical skills are of course nothing to say, but you have too many things to do. Zhuangzi only has one slave here, and there are some emergencies.
It’s really beyond my capabilities, it would be great if I could find another sister who knows medical skills to come back and help me.”
After Miss Bai heard this, a candidate immediately flashed in her mind, but she did not tell Hongyaoming. She only said: "I have remembered this. If I meet a suitable one, I will consider it."
