Bei Yutang asked: “Is there any?”
The shopkeeper put away his surprise and said with a smile: “Yes, there are. But there are some medicinal herbs that are not in the quantity you want in the store.”
“Give me as much as you have in your store.”
“Good.”
“Help me prepare it first. A carriage will come and take it away later. This is a deposit for you.” Bei Yutang took out a fifty-tael silver.
After leaving the drug store, Bei Yutang went to purchase some other scattered utensils, which were all tools she would use in the future.
Near noon, Bei Yutang asked: “Are you tired?”
Xiao Zimo shook his head.
To be honest, Bei Yutang’s body was too weak, and all the flesh on her body was puffy and fat. After walking all morning, she was exhausted.
Looking at the boy beside her who was neither crying nor angry, she felt sorry for this sensible little guy.
The whole morning, Xiao Zimo followed Bei Yutang obediently, watching her busy and not disturbing her. Sometimes, he would show curiosity, but he would not pester her with questions. Instead, he would look and ponder by himself.
Bei Yutang took out a silk handkerchief and wiped the thin sweat from his forehead, “What do you want to eat?”
Xiao Zimo glanced at the surrounding stalls and pointed to the noodle stall in the corner.
“Okay. Let’s eat noodles.” Bei Yutang held his hand.
When the noodles were served, Bei Yutang put the meat in Xiao Zimo’s bowl. Xiao Zimo looked at her in surprise. His eyes when looking at Bei Yutang were vaguely wet.
“Mom, that’s enough for Mo’er.” Xiao Zimo wanted to put the meat back into her bowl, but Bei Yutang stopped him.
“Mom is too fat. I can’t eat too much meat. Mo’er will help me share some of it.”
Xiao Zimo nodded obediently.
After eating, the two of them rented a carriage and loaded all the things that they bought in the morning into the carriage. Finally, they went to the drug store and moved the medicinal materials onto the carriage.
After Bei Yutang paid the money, she looked at the remaining money. She took two hundred silver from Hongfu Restaurant, but only a few taels were left.
Sitting on the carriage, Xiao Zimo finally asked, “Mother, are these medicinal materials used to cure diseases?”
Bei Yutang understood that the ‘cure’ mentioned by Xiao Zimo was the problem of her lethargy.
“It’s kind of like that.”
These medicinal materials were the ointment that she wanted to make. This ointment was what she learned in the previous world and could remove scars and whiten skin.
She was so poor now, so poor that even a third-class maid in Gu Pianran’s house was richer than herself.
Gu Pianran was sitting on countless wealth and had countless powerful men on her back. It was now a year after her death. The only man she had included in the harem was Tang Jingyu.
As for Hua Feiyu, the Eldest Prince of the Zhou Dynasty, he only had a deep admiration for her, and they were still flirting with each other without breaking the window.
As for now, she had still hooked up with the Fourth Prince Gu Fanzhi.
She had not met Xue Qian, the descendant of the Valley of Divine Doctors yet. She had not met Qin Yuxuan, the leader of the Martial Arts Alliance. She had not met the number one killer in the world, An Ye, or the leader of the cult, You Ming.
However, in the next five years, she would meet them and fall in love with them, so much that they were willing to share the same woman with others.
Bei Yutang never understood what love was, but now she vaguely understood it.
Love was staying with each other and being unique to each other.
As for their love, Bei Yutang couldn’t understand it.
She didn’t want to understand it either because they were destined to be enemies.
Now she must do her best to destroy these men who will become Gu Pianran’s strong backing before she meets them.
