Warm medicine emits fragrance

This person must stay in the manor; we must not let her go until we find another person like her.

Li Chenbi thought to himself.

The restlessness in his body gradually intensified, and he became somewhat irritated, so he turned over and lay down in a different position.

He hadn't been lying down for long when the restlessness intensified, and he couldn't stay still any longer, so he sat up.

Upon seeing this, the maid who was fanning him quickly said, "Second Master?"

Li Chenbi stood up. "Let's go to Biying Tower."

The servants in the room immediately cleared the way, and the maidservant with the fan followed behind.

Li Chenbi is extremely sensitive to heat. The Biyinglou is a room specially designed for him, nestled in the mountain wall. It is usually dark and damp, and even on a hot summer afternoon, the room is always cool.

Logically speaking, Li Chenbi should be the most comfortable person in this room.

But Li Chenbi disliked dampness and humid air. He preferred to spend more money to fill a sunny room with ice detectors rather than stay in this room.

He would not go to the Biyinglou unless absolutely necessary.

But today is the time to do so.

Perhaps because his illness was too severe yesterday, the heat in his body came earlier than usual today, and the ice in the attic was no longer effective for him.

As soon as he opened the door, the heat from outside hit him, and in that instant, he felt a burning sensation on his skin.

His brows furrowed suddenly.

He really hates summer.

He quickened his pace, eager to get to the Biyinglou Pavilion as soon as possible.

As I walked downstairs and passed by the houses below, I suddenly heard a sound coming from inside.

It's Lady Yang.

Why are you so cold?

Li Chenbi knew what was happening in this room. In order not to delay him from taking his medicine, the rooms downstairs were used to prepare and retrieve his medicine.

Having been cared for by countless wet nurses since childhood, he was no longer curious about who he obtained his medicinal herbs from.

To him, the wet nurse was just a medicine bag.

Who would be curious about a medicine bag?

But as soon as he heard that sentence, that sensitive word immediately caught his attention.

ice...

Is your body very cold?

That really made him envious.

But it only lasted a moment; the restlessness he felt made him lose interest in investigating further, and he hurriedly left.

Inside the room, Fan Liuer gritted her teeth and endured the discomfort.

Madam Yang was not polite at all; she was very strong, which caused her some pain.

I still have to reply when I have a spare moment, "I'm naturally cold-sensitive, my body is always icy all year round."

And the hotter the weather, the cooler she felt, so she wasn't afraid of the heat at all. She loved the sweltering summer weather, which was very comfortable for her.

Winter was the hardest season for her. No matter how many clothes she wore, she couldn't keep her body warm; it felt like the cold was emanating from within her.

In winter, she would stay at home like a hibernating snake, afraid to go out. She couldn't live without charcoal fire every day, as if she were living in front of a brazier, not moving an inch.

When her parents were alive, things were fine, but after they passed away, her sister-in-law was reluctant to spend money to buy her charcoal, so she had to buy it herself. Almost all the money she had painstakingly saved throughout the year was spent on winter.

But it still wasn't enough; last winter she felt like she was about to freeze to death.

However, she will definitely have a comfortable winter this year and won't be short of money to buy charcoal anymore.

Upon hearing her answer, Madam Yang paused, then murmured, "That really is..."

She didn't continue, and Fan Liuer didn't ask.

Her attention was entirely focused on herself.

It hurts, it really hurts.

Fortunately, the pain wasn't in vain; it actually had some effect.

Madam Yang stopped, satisfied. Her mood improved, and her tone became much better. She said with a hint of pride, "It seems my skills haven't become rusty."

She left satisfied, carrying the jade cup, leaving Fan Liuer blushing and slowly getting dressed.

It hurts when you touch it.

It seems she needs to make up for it; she doesn't want to suffer like that again.

Upon returning to the secluded courtyard, Feng Yan was nowhere to be found, confirming her suspicions.

I felt a little disappointed, but that sense of loss immediately disappeared when I saw the food that was delivered.

She's a foodie all her life; no matter how important something is, it has to take a backseat to food.

This meal was not only abundant, but also exquisite; each dish seemed to have been carefully arranged.

It tasted delicious, and she couldn't help but sigh with delight with every bite.

This is simply heavenly!

She must eat more to improve her health; she absolutely cannot be kicked out.

Li Chenbi hadn't been in the Biyinglou for long when his restlessness began to rise again, and even the coldness of the Biyinglou couldn't suppress it.

He lay on the cold jade bed, which was originally icy to the touch, but the heat emanating from his body warmed it up.

He tossed and turned in bed, his breathing becoming heavy, and the temperature around him seemed to rise.

The servants waiting in the room had all been with him for a long time. Apart from the two maids fanning him, the rest quietly hid in the corner to avoid being harmed by their raging master.

Li Chenbi has a bad temper. When he's not having an episode, he won't beat or scold his servants, but when he does, well, you'd better stay away. He won't care about anyone else.

Everyone in the house was praying that Madam Yang would arrive soon.

Perhaps the prayers of the crowd were effective, for Madam Yang finally arrived before Li Chenbi's attack occurred.

"Second Master, the medicine is here." Madam Yang walked quickly to the jade bed.

Li Chenbi propped himself up, took the jade cup from her hand, tilted his head back, and drank the medicine in one gulp.

It's icy cold and bitter, a bitterness that I still can't accept even after drinking it for over twenty years.

But it doesn't smell fishy.

The fishy smell that had previously made him nauseous from just a small taste was completely absent, as if nothing else had been added to the medicine at all.

There was only bitterness, nothing else.

The cool liquid went down my throat and into my stomach, and the rising dryness subsided.

Li Chenbi lay back on the bed, waiting for the medicine to take effect.

Seeing this, Madam Yang breathed a sigh of relief once again.

She was worried that yesterday's effect was just a coincidence, or that Li Chenbi was just imagining things because he was in too much pain. Now it seems that this time the wet nurse really suited his taste.

With Li Chenbi's health improved, the lives of all the servants in the courtyard became easier.

At the same time, Madam Yang was somewhat puzzled, "In all these years, this is the first time I've met a wet nurse who suits your taste so well. Do you think it's related to the fact that she has never given birth?"

At this moment, the medicine began to take effect, and the internal heat in his body was suppressed. Li Chenbi felt much better and had more patience.

Hearing this, he couldn't help but become curious and looked up at Madam Yang: "Never given birth? Then how do you have milk?"

Lady Yang laughed and said, "The world is full of wonders, and such things are not uncommon. I was wondering if it's because you've never given birth that you can't taste the fishy smell? In the future, when we look for a wet nurse, we should look for one according to that standard."

Li Chenbi had an idea to investigate, "Then let's find another one like this and try it to see."
