Chapter 67.4 – Personally Fernt Their Wedding Wine (4)
“Greetings princess.” Seeing Han Ming Xiang, the people of the ng Manor all ca to greet her. Han Ming
Xiang went forward to help Madam ng up, saying: “I’d heard just now that old madam is sick, and thus ca
over to see. Madam ng doesn’t need to be so formal.”
“Thank you, princess.” Madam ng lead the people behind her in rising.
“How’s old madam’s illness?” Han Ming Xiang asked.
“Right now, her condition has already stabilized. She’d just slept for a while and had woken not long ago. Perhaps,
she knew that you all were coming over and thus woke up!” Madam ng spoke as she lead them into the room.
After Du Xiao Li entered the room, she saw ng Old Madam leaning against the bedside. Her complexion right
now appeared to have improved quite a bit, and she was currently eating the grapes the servant girl peeled for her.
Seeing Han Ming Xiang, she wanted to bow to her, but got stopped by Han Ming Xiang.
Du Xiao Li ca to the bedside and said, “Grandma ng, let take your pulse first.”
Hearing Du Xiao Li say this, the servant girl to the side quickly brought a cushion over and had ng Old Madam’s
hand placed on top, so as to make it easier for Du Xiao Li to take her pulse.
“Girl, the grapes you sent over today were very delicious.” ng Old Madam said after Du Xiao Li took her pulse.
“Right now, you still can’t eat too many, but eating a little is rather beneficial to the body. Once you’ve recovered, it’s
not too late to eat more.” Du Xiao Li picked up the cushion and handed it to the servant girl to the side. The servant
girl then went to put it back. “Later, I’ll perform acupuncture for you one more ti and have your dicine
changed again.”
“Thank you, if not for you, this old life of mine would’ve long reported to King Enma’s court.” ng Old Madam
said.
“That’s because grandma ng is a fortunate person blessed by the heavens.” Du Xiao Li said as she got up, and
when she turned around, she just saw Ji Liu Xia and them looking to herself dumbstruck.
“You all are…?” Du Xiao Li felt her hair stand from their staring. Especially Ji Liu Xia’s gaze, it was like she wanted
to eat her.
In the end, it was Han Ming Xiang that broke the strange atmosphere. “Previously, I heard old madam’s illness was
very pressing, even the imperial physicians were bounded by the hands. Afterwards, she got saved by a little
dicine god. At the ti, I was still thinking who this little dicine god was, but didn’t think it was actually Xiao
Li.”
“Xiao Li, you’ve really shocked us.” Ji Liu Xia spoke in disbelief.
“En? Your older brother didn’t tell you that I knew dicine?” Du Xiao Li asked.
“Nope, that guy actually didn’t tell that you have dical skills, and even a little dicine god. Wait until I get
back, see how I’m going to ss with him!” Ji Liu Xia said through clenched teeth. If Ji Liu Feng had told her
earlier, she wouldn’t have been this surprised.
“I just knew Xiao Li isn’t as the rumors outside say, yet didn’t expect that you would be this shocking!” At the
gathering last ti, Fu Ya Lan already noticed that Du Xiao Li wasn’t like how she appeared on the surface. That’s
why, she told her grandfather to agree letting Du Xiao Li enroll in the academy. Unexpectedly, the shock she gave
her was far more than what she’d imagined.
“Alright, you all don’t just stand around. All of you sit down and chat with this old woman for a while. Then
afterwards, just go out and play.” ng Old Madam said.
Madam ng let the servant girl carry over a few stools to place by the bedside for Du Xiao Li and them to sit. Just
then, ng Old Madam finally saw Du Xiu Heng behind them and quickly called him over. However, because he
was male, it wasn’t too convenient for him to stay there, so after a while, he just left first. And ng Jiang Zhuo
thus also lead the others to the pavilion in the courtyard to admire flower, drink tea, and eat grapes.
“What fruit is this? So good! And also tastes a bit like grape wine.” Ji Liu Xia asked in surprise after eating a grape.
“This is the grape that Xiao Li let soone send over this morning.” Madam ng explained from the
“This is a grape? Xiao Li where did you get this?” Ji Liu Xia looked to Du Xiao Li in shock. She very much liked
drinking grape wine, but had never eaten grapes before.
“Picked it from the ground.” Du Xiao Li said.
“This morning when I saw the grapes, I was also very surprised. Never thought that I’d actually be able to eat this
kind of fruit.” Han Ming Xiang said.
(T/N: I’m surprised as popular as the grapes are the imperial family hasn’t made them offer so up as ‘tribute’.)
“Ah, Xiao Li also sent you so too?” Ji Liu Xia pitifully looked to Du Xiao Li. That look very bluntly was
complaining to Du Xiao Li, why there wasn’t her share.
“You’re a glutton just like your brother, so how can I forget yours? I also had soone send so to the General’s
Manor.” Du Xiao Li said with a smile. “However, big sister Ya Lan’s house, it wasn’t convenient for to let
soone send them, so I was thinking to let you co with to my house to get so later. That’s why I didn’t
send any.”
“It’s fine. Xiao Li, you’re already very considerate.” Fu Ya Lan said with a smile. Although there weren’t any sent to
the manor, at least she didn’t forget her share, no?
“That’s right, I plan on inviting everyone for a gathering on that day off. Are you all willing to co?” Du Xiao Li
asked.
“Really? Xiao Li, you’ve finally thought of inviting us for a al. Hearing my older brother ntion it every day,
my saliva has already drooled all over the floor!” Ji Liu Xia happily said.
“Liu Xia’s so moved!” ng Jiang Zhuo and the others saw Ji Liu Xia’s appearance and began laughing.
“It’s not that I want to be moved, but rather I’m finally going to get to eat Xiao Li’s cooking after waiting for so
long.” Ji Liu Xia said, “You all don’t know, my older brother once ate Xiao Li’s cooking before, and told how
good it was, how such and such was made, and also how this and that tasted, really making craved to death. Last
ti, she already said she was going to invite us to eat, but never thought we actually had to wait for this long. How
can I not be moved?”
“Haha, we all didn’t know that Xiao Li even knew how to cook!” ng Jiang Zhuo said with a laugh.
“I also have never eaten it before, but even soone as picky of an eater as my brother say it’s good, then it must be
very good.” Ji Liu Xia confidently said.
“Really? I’m starting to look forward to it.” Fu Ya Lan also beca interest, “But if this many of us all go to the
Pri Minister Manor, won’t it be too inconvenient?”
“We won’t be gathering at the Pri Minister Manor.” Du Xiao Li replied.
“Then where are we going?”
Du Xiao Li originally wanted to say the wolf park, but recalling Ji Liu Xia’s appearance just now, she instead said,
“Right now, there’s two places, one in the city, and one outside the city. If it’s outside the city, it’ll probably take
about an hour by horse carriage. If we go there, then we won’t be able to have dinner at night.”
“Then let’s just stay in the city.” Ji Liu Xia said.
“En, right now, with the weather this hot, riding the horse carriage will also be rather tiring. Then let’s just have it in
the city.” Du Xiao Li said.
“But if not in the Pri Minister Manor, where can we go?” ng Jiang Zhuo asked.
Du Xiao Li smiled and said, “When the ti cos, you’ll know.”
When night fell, Du Xiao Li rode in Fu Ya Lan’s carriage back to the Pri Minister Manor, and in passing, had the
grapes from that morning given to her to take back.
