Farmer's Wife Has Magic Skills Chapter 395 Protective of His Wife

395 Protective of His Wife

Xu Jizhou's pain had finally taken a hike. Eagerly awaiting a visit, his face lit up like a Christmas tree at the sound of footsteps. But, alas, it was just his mom, not the much-anticipated Qingning.

Mrs. Xu did not notice the change in her son. She brought the dicine bowl to Xu Jizhou and said gently, "Jizhou, drink the dicine."

"Hey, Mom," Jizhou mumbled, masking his disappointnt like a bad actor in a soap opera. "Where's Qingning?"

"Oh, she's swamped with chores," his mother said, recalling the chaos at Qingning's house. She thought about the prospect of Jizhou marrying into Qingning's family, but let's face it, Qingning wasn't exactly Jizhou's biggest fan.

The second daughter of the Chu family was about to marry the young master of the rich family. The fifth daughter of the Chu family was going to marry a general. If her son could marry Chu Qingning, his future would be limitless. However, Chu Qingning did not like her son at all. Sigh, what a pity.

She did not intend to tell Xu Jizhou these words for fear of hurting him.

Changing the subject, Jizhou asked, "So, what's Qingning up to?"

"Playing MasterChef at ho. It's like Thanksgiving over there," she replied.

Jizhou just nodded and downed his dicine, plotting to visit Qingning later when he felt less like a zombie.

…

anwhile, Jiang Zhaoyong caught up to Qingning. "Where are you off to with those mooncakes?"

"They're for a sick guy who can't go ho," Qingning replied, pointing at the old house.

Chu Qingzhi had always taken good care of the patients at ho. She was a very responsible girl.

Jiang Zhaoyong didn't want to let Chu Qingning go. "Let guess, Xu Jizhou?"

"Yeah, what's the big deal?" she wondered.

"Just don't go. I'll play the delivery guy," Jiang Zhaoyong insisted, grabbing the mooncakes.

Qingning, slightly baffled, watched him walk away. 'Why's he acting like Jizhou's personal bodyguard?'

…

Jiang Zhaoyong, now with the mooncakes, decided, "No way I'm feeding these to Jizhou."

He was about to throw the mooncakes into the bush, but when he raised his hand, he put it down again. It was a pity to throw away such delicious mooncakes. He could not waste food for nothing.

He looked around. There was a cornstalk pile nearby. He walked over, took out the mooncakes, and ate them all.

It would be great to have it all to himself. Why did he have to give it to Xu Jizhou?

"Burp…" Jiang Zhaoyong burped and walked towards the Chu family's house in satisfaction.

…

Back at the Chu house, it was dinner ti. The elders and guests gathered around, enjoying a feast prepared by Grandma Chu and Li Qingyu. It was a grand spread, and everyone was having a blast. Butler Ning complinted Grandma Chu's culinary skills, and she humbly accepted the praise, delighted to have guests from the capital.

Grandma Chu greeted, "Everyone, take a seat. There's no need to stand on ceremony. Eat as much as you want."

Chu Xujin brought over so beer to pour for everyone, saying, "Uncle Ning, brothers, you've co from afar and must be tired. This is beer brewed by my family, please try it."

This was sothing fresh, and everyone's eyes lit up with anticipation.

The beer was chilled and tasted even better.

Butler Ning, a man who enjoyed drinks and food, imdiately took a sip and found it to his liking. "Delicious! How is it brewed? It's perfect with grilled dishes."

Chu Qingzhi smiled, thinking to herself, another foodie.

Chu Xuhua smiled, "It's brewed from barley. Uncle Ning, feel free to drink as much as you like, we have plenty more at ho."

After another sip, Butler Ning said with a smile, "Then I won't be polite."

This trip was worthwhile, especially for such a rare treat.

Two guards and two servants also enjoyed the beer, finding it just right for their taste, slightly intoxicating but not too strong.

One of the guards asked, "Will this beer be sold in the capital city?"

Chu Xuhua, who had a general plan for their family business, replied, "Yes, but not until next year."

The guard, finishing his bowl of beer in one gulp, said cheerfully, "Let know when it's available, and I'll be sure to support your business."

Chu Xuhua nodded with a smile, "Sure, thank you in advance."

"No need to be polite, brother," the guard replied.

Everyone enjoyed the drinks and dishes in a harmonious atmosphere.

…

After the al, Li Qingyu imdiately prepared return gifts, and the guards and Butler Ning's people left with the gifts.

Since it was a major festival, they wanted to return ho to spend ti with their families. Leaving early ant they might still make it ho for dinner.

Lin Yingmin's servant also left, as the young master was still waiting for his return.

Chu Xujin and Ge Lihua left for the county office, as the people caught the previous day hadn't been fully interrogated yet.

Chu Qingzhi, along with Chu Qingning, Yuan Hongjun, and Bao Linjiang, went to the military camp. They had acquired the dicinal herbs and planned to process the Snow Lotus.

In the military camp, Yuan Hongjun and Bao Linjiang had a tent dedicated to dical research, which was very convenient for refining dicine.

Jiang Zhaoyong specially went to tell Xu Jizhou that Chu Qingning had left the house. Then, in a good mood, he returned to the school.

He was determined to practice the guqin and beco a refined person… The Emperor had said that if he didn't learn anything, he would have to stay in the school until he died. It was a frightening decree to him!

…

Fengxin County · Lin Family.

The servant handed a box to Lin Yingmin, whispering, "Young Master, this is the return gift from Miss Chu."

Upon hearing this, Lin Yingmin imdiately took the box. Inside were mooncakes and several foods he had never seen before.

He looked at them curiously for a while, then asked with anticipation, "Did you find out her na?"

The servant replied, "Her na is Chu Qingzhi, a famous doctor known far and wide. Recently, she was honored by the Emperor for assisting General Tang in quelling the northern border unrest…"

In this era, there was sothing called the Imperial Gazette, where major court news was published and distributed nationwide, serving as the most authoritative source of information for the people of Daling.

The more Lin Yingmin heard, the more delighted he beca. "Chu Qingzhi," he mused, admiring the beautiful na and her dedication to the country and its people.

Suddenly, Lin Yingmin clenched the corner of his robe, asking tentatively, "Did… Chu Qingzhi say anything else to you?"

The servant glanced at Lin Yingmin and said, "She ntioned she would find ti to treat your legs."
