Her family could always prepare them.
“Yes, I can. I’ll look for a medical book later.” Ye Muyu was someone who would do whatever she wanted. She would feel a little uncomfortable if she did not do it when she thought of it.
Madam Hu was somewhat expectant. Ever since she knew that Ye Muyu could read, it was not strange to make more useful objects. In this world, scholars were precious and knew everything.
She was a little envious, but more than that, she was happy because her son, daughter, and even her husband, Zhang Shu, were learning how to read.
The two of them were old, so they just had to learn the basics and not be scammed in the future.
However, the two children could learn a lot of things. This was something that would never happen in other families. As she thought about it, Madam Hu’s eyes turned red.
Seeing Ye Muyu cutting vegetables with her back to her, she quickly wiped her tears and smiled.
After cutting the bitter gourd, Ye Muyu marinated it with salt for a while before pouring out the water and starting the salad.
The two children could not eat too much bitterness. After being salted, the bitterness was almost gone.
“Madam, the buns are ready. I’ll take care of the rest.” Madam Hu waited for her to put down the kitchen knife and quickly fetched water for her to wash her hands.
Ye Muyu did not insist.
She nodded and left the kitchen.
She turned around and went into the study. She found a lot of medical books and confirmed the ingredients of some medicinal wine. In her previous life, she had read a lot of things. It was only a business cooperation, so she did not know the real secret recipe. However, she understood some of the general principles.
She first wrote down the herbs she needed.
She wanted to find a doctor to confirm the specific dosage and formula before making it.
“Master, you’re back?”
As soon as she finished writing, she heard voices outside. Ye Muyu stood up and put the paper away at her waist.
She walked toward the door.
When she opened the door, she saw Chu Heng standing in the courtyard surrounded by onlookers.
He was carrying two pheasants in his hands!
If it was not for the fact that the two pheasants were so quiet, Ye Muyu would have thought that they were alive.
“How did this come about?” Ye Muyu walked out quickly and looked at the pheasant. She was a little surprised. Then she thought of something and asked Chu Heng anxiously, “Why did you go hunting pheasants? Yesterday, there was a ban on slaughtering. You have a reputation. If someone were to leak it, your reputation would be tarnished and it would even affect your imperial examination!”
“Did you meet anyone on the way?” Ye Muyu asked Lu Chuan, who was following Chu Heng out of the house.
“Who are they? I’ll go out and get some information from them later.” Ye Muyu frowned slightly. She knew that the matter had already happened, so she could only think of a way to resolve it. It was useless to complain.
However, she still had to remind Chu Heng. Otherwise, this person would boldly continue to hunt pheasants.
“Madam, no one saw us. It’s still early. Most villagers haven’t woken up yet, let alone gone out.” Lu Chuan explained in a low voice.
Ye Muyu looked at him disapprovingly. “It’s better to be safe than sorry. As long as one person sees it, it won’t be a secret.”
“You, come in with me.” Ye Muyu looked at Chu Heng helplessly.
At the same time, she instructed Lu Chuan and Zhang Shu to be more alert and listen to the gossip in the village.
There was no need to ask anything, but they had to be cautious and listen.
Lu Chuan lowered his head, not daring to say anything.
Chu Heng handed the pheasants to Madam Hu and washed his hands before following Ye Muyu into the study..
