Chapter 182 How to be proud
"Miss is back!"

The gatekeeper saw Shen Jiaojiao from a distance and quickly shouted inside.

The sound in the yard suddenly became much louder.

It was noisy and a bit lively.

Shen Jiaojiao and Keying looked at each other and walked forward faster.

The two of them looked over the courtyard wall.

A group of people gathered in the corridor, surrounding Kexin and Aoxue inside.

There were several maids and women standing outside, holding large bowls in their hands, talking and laughing while drinking.

When Shen Jiaojiao stood at the entrance of the courtyard, the maids and women all made way for a passage.

Everyone's expressions were a little stiff, and they felt uneasy, for fear of being punished by their master——

They had vaguely heard that the previous group of people were driven away by the eldest lady for leaving their posts without permission.

Shen Jiaojiao noticed their unnatural expressions and walked straight into the circle without saying anything.

Ao Xue placed a large bucket in front of him, with half a bucket of brown-black soup in it. He scooped out a bowl of soup and handed it to everyone from Kexin.

"Miss, you are back."

Kexin's eyes lit up and he handed over a bowl of soup carelessly.

"Try it, it will dispel the cold."

"Thank you." She took the big bowl, followed the example of the maids, stood on the porch and sipped it.

The decoction is not as unpleasant as expected. Instead, it has a meaty aroma and a sweet taste in your mouth. No wonder the maids love to drink it.

When the servants of Mingzhuyuan saw her being so kind, their uneasiness immediately disappeared.

The brave ones even joked with her.

"Miss, you are so beautiful today!"

"Don't talk nonsense, the eldest lady is beautiful anytime. There is no one in Lin'an City who is more beautiful than the eldest lady."

"Miss, please try wearing red clothes. It will definitely suit you well."

"Yeah!"

……

Listening to the chirping voices of the little maids, Shen Jiaojiao pursed her lips and smiled. Instead of blaming them for their rudeness, she lowered her body and started chatting with everyone.

She even took the maids' advice and promised to wear a red dress tomorrow.

Ke Ying saw her at the side and laughed secretly.

Who wouldn't like the easy-going nature of my young lady?
What's even more exciting is that at tomorrow's Jiang family banquet, the dressed-up lady will definitely shine.

After distributing the cold-removing decoction, Shen Jiaojiao called Ke Xin and Aoxue into the room to question them.

"Have you seen Qian Lao?"

Ke Xin nodded, "Yes, luckily we got there in time and the old miracle doctor Qian hasn't left Lin'an City yet."

"Then what does he think of Aoxue?"

"Mr. Qian is very kind. After listening to our request, he agreed to help keep the secret without saying a word."

This was something Shen Jiaojiao had not expected.

She thought it would take a lot of effort to get Mr. Qian to agree.

After all, she and Qian Lao were strangers, and her sworn brother had saved Qian Lao's life.

No matter how you look at it, you should help your sworn brother.

Aoxue seemed to notice her confusion and asked softly: "Miss, do you know who the old miracle doctor Qian is?"

Shen Jiaojiao shook her head blankly, "I don't know."

She only knew that Mr. Qian was a miracle doctor who was rescued by his sworn brother and came to Lin'an City to repay his sworn brother.

"Mr. Qian knows my father." Aoxue explained what Mr. Qian said.

It turned out that Mr. Qian had also been to the border back then, helping injured soldiers and civilians with Aoxue's father.

What is regrettable is that Mr. Qian left the border without seeing General Shen.

Only then did Shen Jiaojiao realize that she was in the favor of her own father.

There is a reason why Mr. Qian is good to her.

When Aoxue said that Mr. Qian admired General Shen very much, she showed an expression of pride on her face.

No matter what, General Shen is her biological father.

Guard the borders and protect the people. She should be proud!
"By the way, Mr. Qian said he would help you get rid of the poisonous bugs and poisons in your body. Just relax and wait."

After Aoxue finished speaking, she picked up the medicine jar that Shen Jiaojiao placed on the table and smelled it.

"Mr. Qian has already told me the formula. I have verified it and it is indeed a good medicine. Miss, please feel free to use it."

Seeing that the matter was resolved smoothly, Shen Jiaojiao breathed a sigh of relief and asked about the cold-dispelling decoction just now.

"Why do you think of distributing soup? The weather has indeed become colder in recent days, so you need to buy more clothes."

Lin'an is located in Lingnan, so it doesn't snow easily.

For some reason this year, snow fell on the tops of the mountains in the northern suburbs of Lin'an, and even the mountainside was covered in rime.

The cold caught everyone off guard.

Many people didn't even prepare new clothes. The winter clothes from previous years were not enough to withstand the cold wind.

"We also heard from Mr. Qian that there are more and more people coughing on the streets in recent days. We are afraid that if they go out on the street and catch the disease, it will be bad for them to pass it back to the ladies," Ke Xin said.

Shen Jiaojiao's face darkened, and gloom gradually filled her heart.

"Kexin, go and ask the housekeeper if he has made winter clothes for the servants this year?

"If you don't do it, I have a cloth shop under my name. You ask the shopkeeper to send someone to the south to buy a large amount of cotton and cloth to keep out the cold.

"Aoxue, write down the recipe for the anti-cold decoction and purchase the required medicinal materials in the city first. If the medicinal materials are insufficient, send someone to purchase them elsewhere as soon as possible.

"Both of these matters can be discussed with Yumei. She has been in charge outside for many years and has more experience than you."

After a series of instructions, the two maids looked much more solemn.

They sensed the coming storm.

"Yes." The two of them responded in unison and quickly walked out.

Shen Jiaojiao walked to the window and looked quietly at the sky with only a trace of light left.

I hope this is all unfounded.

Since she had eaten a bowl of shredded chicken noodles in the afternoon, she was not hungry, so she did not eat dinner.

After bathing and changing clothes, she climbed into bed early and leaned on the pillow to read the newly read script.

Ke Xin turned on the oil lamp in the house, fearing that her eyes would be damaged by reading at night.

Another hour passed.

Kexin glanced at the sky and saw that it was already midnight.

It's only half an hour before midnight.

Then, he looked at Shen Jiaojiao again, and couldn't help but smile.

"Miss, please chat with me."

"What's wrong?" Shen Jiaojiao raised her head.

Kexin raised her hands forward, then turned them around, making a gesture of 'holding the book backwards', "You don't even have the heart to read."

Shen Jiaojiao was stunned and looked down at the storybook in her hand.

Sure enough, it was taken backwards.

Her face turned red, she became angry with embarrassment, and wanted to kick Ke Xin out.

"Okay, how dare you laugh? Get out of here!"

With a smile on her face, Ke Xin raised her index finger and scratched her cheek, "Shame, shame, Miss, you're shy!"

She was ashamed and annoyed, with rosy cheeks. She walked quickly to Kexin and pushed him out of the east wing.

The door was closed by her forcefully.

"Miss, please open the door. I was wrong. I shouldn't have laughed at you." Kexin apologized quickly.

She remained unmoved and pressed against the door to prevent it from being pushed open.

Kexin knocked on the door several times, but failed to open it. Her voice became more and more anxious, and the banging on the door became louder.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.

Shen Jiaojiao listened carefully and found that even the voices outside had stopped, there was no sound at all.

She frowned inwardly and was about to ask Ke Xin what happened.

A deep voice came from outside.

"Shen Jiaojiao, open the door."

 Oh my god, I’m going to kneel down. The rating of this book came out and it’s so low. Did I write so poorly? I’m so sad. I want to cry. Let me emo... Oh! Chapter 182 is also locked. Misfortunes never come singly. Let’s read it tomorrow. In addition, I would like to thank Brother Lan Er for the recommendation vote. Thank you for your support, which makes me feel that I am not coding on a single computer. I also want to thank my old friends who silently read the article (although I don’t know how many there are). I will cheer up and continue. Code characters, I love you~
