After Becoming the Villain Mother-in-Law, I Launch My Redemption Arc Chapter 169: Lady Qian Leaves

Qian Shi pondered for a mont and looked at ng Yao, "Is it convenient for us to go over there?"

"We’re only staying temporarily, there’s nothing inconvenient about it," ng Yao said casually, thinking that she only needed to explain to Lu Luoxing later.

"Yuanxing, go back and tell your father that he should take good care of himself and not worry about us," Qian Shi said. "Discuss your engagent with Hong Xing with him. If you both still agree, then arrange it as soon as possible. Only, the dowry I promised for Hong Xing is no longer available."

"Madam, how can you say that? How would we not agree?" Qian Yuanxing hurried to explain. "I will work hard to earn money in the future and make it up to her."

Hong Xing, feeling shy, glanced quickly at Qian Yuanxing and then lowered her head.

"Good, you are a good child. Your kindness and your father’s will always be rembered by . If I can turn things around in the future, I will certainly not treat you unjustly," Qian Shi said, moved.

ng Yao took Qian Shi and the others back to the Hundred Herbs Hall, using the back door.

After settling everyone in, ng Yao told Doctor Su, who had no objections, allowing them to stay as long as they wished.

The Hundred Herbs Hall was the property of the owner. Without instructions from the owner, he wouldn’t dare to make decisions on his own, but the owner had previously given such instructions, so it was not an issue.

ng Yao shared her plans with Qian Shi, who thought for a mont, "I know the magistrate of Xuzhou and Li Tanyun have always been at odds, so we shall go to Xuzhou."

ng Yao instinctively looked at Zhao Xiaoshu, realizing that Zhao Xiaoshu would also have to go to Xuzhou.

"Ah Yao, your brother-in-law has many classmates in Qingzhou. He usually keeps a low profile, so I think, as long as I don’t go to Qingzhou, the Li couple may not press him too hard. However, he is not good at taking care of himself, so I would like to ask you to take care of Xiaoshu as well as look after him a bit," Qian Shi said seriously.

"I want to go to Xuzhou with you," Wang Fuzi directly opposed.

Qian Shi glared at him, "You can’t help with business matters. Following would only hinder my efforts to make money. Rest assured, I will find my footing soon and then co to get you. You are Xiaoshu’s teacher now; you can’t neglect his studies, right?"

Wang Fuzi felt sowhat dejected, but he knew that everything Amin said was true. He was, indeed, quite useless, unable to offer any help, and instead causing Amin to spare thoughts for him.

"Then you have to co for as soon as possible," Wang Fuzi said with a low mood.

With Wang Fuzi having no objections, ng Yao naturally would not refuse.

Qian Shi was of a decisive character. The next day, she took Hong Xing to Butler Qian, and when she returned, she was alone.

"It’s settled with Butler Qian. Hong Xing will temporarily stay at Yuanxing’s mother’s relatives’ house. When the ti cos, Hong Xing will marry out from there," Qian Shi said nonchalantly.

"Sister, there’s no need to rush. Why not wait until after Hong Xing and Yuanxing marry before leaving?" ng Yao could see the reluctance in Qian Shi’s heart.

"No, I must go quickly," Qian Shi said resolutely.

Qian Shi was stubborn, and ng Yao couldn’t persuade her. It was only after much pleading from Wang Fuzi that she agreed not to leave imdiately, but to depart the next day.

After checking on two injured patients, ng Yao perford acupuncture on the young man and changed the dicine for Lian Niang’s husband.

While changing the dicine, Doctor Su finally saw the stitched wound, both surprised and delighted.

The wound was healing well, swollen but not red, with no pus around the needle marks.

Lian Niang saw the wound and covered her mouth, tears streaming down her face.

ng Yao comforted her with the baby in her belly, then routinely instructed her before busy preparing dicine for Qian Shi.

As Qian Shi was going to Xuzhou to start anew, ng Yao needed to prepare daily dicines for her to prevent any health issues due to acclimatization. Otherwise, Qian Shi might stubbornly endure to save money, leading to major health problems, which would not be worth the risk.

ng Yao worked tirelessly from noon until late at night, gathering an assortnt of bottles and jars into a box.

Not only were there pills for different ailnts, but also so defensive sedatives prepared.

Qian Shi looked at those bottles and jars, her eyes reddening, "Ah Yao, thank you."

"I don’t object to you going to Xuzhou, but if you encounter situations you can’t handle, do not push yourself too hard," ng Yao advised. "Think about brother-in-law, think about Zhenzhen."

"Don’t worry, I cherish life very much. As long as there’s life, everything is possible. Without life, everything is empty talk," Qian Shi said.

Only then did ng Yao feel reassured, "Then, sister, quickly go back to your room to rest, and talk to brother-in-law properly, so as not to make him feel upset."

The next day, when ng Yao woke up wanting to see Qian Shi off, she found that Qian Shi had already left.

Wang Fuzi spoke sullenly, "She left before dawn, not wanting to disturb you, saying she couldn’t bear the sadness of parting."

"How long has she been gone?" ng Yao asked.

"It’s been an hour," Wang Fuzi said.

It was too late to catch up.

ng Yao was glad that she had placed so silver in the dicine box the previous day.

"Brother-in-law, you shouldn’t be too sad either," ng Yao comforted Wang Fuzi. "Sister has the experience of traveling afar. I’m sure everything will go well."

"Dahe’s mother, I used to think that everything else was inferior to studying. But now, I kind of understand what others say about scholars being useless," Wang Fuzi sighed. "Academic success only matters if you achieve sothing with it. For soone like , I’m indeed useless. My only achievent is that Dahe topped the county exam. But what does that have to do with ? It’s Dahe’s own talent. Otherwise, why have I taught for so many years, yet only Dahe has succeeded?"

"Brother-in-law, you mustn’t dwell on this. If you keep thinking this way, you’ll be ruined. If you’re like this, what’s the point of sister’s hard work abroad?" ng Yao quickly advised, "Dahe indeed has so talent, but if not for your guidance, how would his talent be directed towards academics?"

"And you have to consider Xiaoshu too. Didn’t you say his talent is even greater than Dahe’s?"

Wang Fuzi felt much less downcast imdiately, "Right, right, right, Amin is working so hard; I mustn’t hold her back."

Only then did ng Yao breathe a sigh of relief, "Xiaoshu, fetch water for your master to wash, and tidy yourself up, I’ll cook for you."

Usually, she had her breakfast made by the won.

With Wang Fuzi and Zhao Xiaoshu now, how could she bear to trouble others?

She kneaded the dough and made so hand-pulled noodles, topping it with a simple scrambled egg.

Simple but with no compromise on flavor.

At first, Wang Fuzi didn’t have much appetite, but after one bite, it was clear that the second bite ca much faster.

Truly, a good al can lift one’s spirits at any ti.

Perhaps because the al was so appetizing on ng Yao’s side, both won and Lian Niang followed suit and made hand-pulled noodles.

Seeing this, ng Yao reminded the two won to cook the noodles for the patients till soft and tender.

They both agreed.

After eating, Wang Fuzi insisted on not staying at the Hundred Herbs Hall, saying that with Qian Shi gone, there was no point for the Li couple to keep an eye on him either. ng Yao could only help him and Zhao Xiaoshu hire an ox cart and let the two of them head back first.
