City Lord Chunyu said: "Don't use it indiscriminately to refer to people who are not sick and have no disasters. Now, as a father, I point to it to extend my life. What else is there to worry about?"

Chunyu Yi still made no move and asked: "Tell your daughter the truth. Apart from extending your life, will taking this medicine have any other effects?"

"Of course there will be..."

Now that things have happened, City Lord Chunyu has nothing to hide.

“After taking this medicine, people’s energy will be stimulated, just as if their condition is getting better.

The price is that the pain suffered by the person taking the drug will be several times worse than before.

It’s just that I have suffered too much pain as a father in my life, and as long as I can achieve my goal, these are nothing.”

"The cost of taking the medicine is that the pain will increase several times, so you take it twice..."

Chunyu Yi didn't dare to think any further.

She herself has suffered from pain since childhood, how could she bear to let her father not even die in peace.

"Yier, please give me the medicine quickly, otherwise I may not be able to survive for a few days." City Lord Chunyu urged.

"Father, when you returned to Ruoshui City, were you worried about your aunt and brother, or were you worried about Han Zhi?" Chunyu Yi held his big, bony hand.

Lord Chunyu said: "Your brother is also the flesh and blood of his father. I have felt very sorry for their mother and son over the years. I always want to see him before I die.

As for Xiaojiu, she was dragged into the trap by us, and we cannot allow her to be wronged again.

You know best what kind of temper a father is like. If you don't handle these things well, you won't feel at ease even if you leave."

Chunyu Yi's hands began to shake violently.

She gritted her teeth, took out the pill and dissolved it in warm water.

Every drop of the concoction was fed into Lord Chunyu's mouth.

He frowned slightly: "It's so painful. Fortunately, this is the last time..."

Chunyu Yi quickly went to mix some warm water and rinse his mouth.

City Lord Chunyu wiped the water stains from his mouth and said warmly: "Yier, you are just one month pregnant now. Although the fetus is very stable, it is not suitable to travel long distances.

Moreover, it is not suitable to travel far due to the cold weather and heavy snow blocking the road.

Let’s spend the New Year in Yanmen County with peace of mind and wait until spring begins before setting off again.”

Chunyu Yi said: "Yes, my daughter obeys her father in everything."

City Lord Chunyu added: "Don't tell Xiao Wu and your mother-in-law about taking the secret medicine for your father, so as not to worry them.

My father will be able to get out of bed in two days, so you can say that the decoction you have taken in the past few days has taken effect."

Chunyu Yi nodded: "You talked too much today, so you'd better lie down and take a good rest."

She helped Lord Chunyu lie down and tucked him in with the quilt.

※※※※

In the evening, Xiao Xuan came back despite the heavy snow, and the old Duke Xiao came back with him.

Chunyu Yi ordered the maids to take off their cloaks and change into boots for them, and then brought hot water to wipe their faces, and then served hot tea herself.

Old Duke Xiao warmed his hands on the fumigator, picked up the tea cup and asked with a smile: "Why is Xiaomu free today? Could it be that your father's condition has improved?"

He was aware of City Lord Chunyu's condition, and he just wanted to comfort his grandson-in-law by saying this.

Chunyu Yi chuckled and said, "As my grandfather said, my father is indeed much better today. He talked to me for a long time and drank a whole bowl of rice porridge."

Her original intention was to comfort Mr. Xiao, but she forgot that there is a saying in the world of "returning to the light".

Old Duke Xiao's heart skipped a beat, and the tea cup in his hand was almost unsteady.

Xiao Xuan had the same idea. He hurriedly asked: "Has your father-in-law's condition really improved?"

Chunyu Yi smiled and said: "You still can't believe in dad's medical skills? He has changed his prescription in the past few days, and it was only today that he saw the effect.

He also told me that he missed Ruoshui City and planned to take us back there after spring.

OK, if you are too busy with military affairs, there is no need to force it, I can go back alone with my father."

How could Xiao Xuan be so easy to fool?

He could not guess that City Lord Chunyu had taken the secret medicine, but he suddenly asked to return to Ruoshui City, so his condition must have worsened again.

He deliberately said with a straight face: "Ding Xiaomu, this is the first time you have returned to your parents' home after we got married. If I don't accompany you, will you lose your face?"

Chunyu Yi is really not the kind of person who cares about face, but she doesn't want to let down Xiao Xuan's kindness.

"It would be best if you could accompany me back.

It's just that Hanzhi and the others have returned to Tianshui County now, and I don't know if they can see them."

Hearing her mention Xiao Bi, Xiao Xuan couldn't help but glance at his grandfather.

Xiao Heng has written to explain the real cause of Nan's death and what Xiao Jiu did in Beijing a few months ago.

Lord Chunyu and his daughter were already our own, so we should not have concealed them.

But City Lord Chunyu was too weak, and they were worried that if he knew about this matter, it would be detrimental to his condition, so even Chunyu Yi hid it.

Old Duke Xiao shook his head almost imperceptibly, and said: "Don't worry about Xiaomu, I know Xiaojiu's temper best.

Now that she has accepted the position of City Lord, she will never give up halfway.

I think their plan is the same as your father's. They also plan to celebrate the New Year in Tianshui County and then set off for Ruoshui City after the beginning of spring.

You will definitely be able to meet in Weushui City by then."

Chunyu Yi smiled and said, "Grandpa is right. It's just that if you follow me back to Ruoshui City this time, you will have to worry about military matters again."

Old Duke Xiao stroked his beard: "So, I am indeed at a disadvantage.

At such an old age, you are still bound by these chores. When will you be able to live a comfortable life?

Think about it, the little bastards in Xiaojiu's family are almost two years old, and I haven't even seen a shadow of them yet!"

Chunyu Yi felt a little ashamed and said, "It's all our fault. We have always been a drag on my grandfather."

Xiao Laoguo said: "Now you are also twins, so you must take good care of yourself.

Regardless of whether the baby is a boy or a girl, as long as the mother and child are safe, it is best."

Chunyu Yi saluted: "Thank you very much, grandfather, for your concern. My granddaughter-in-law must take good care of her."

After dinner, the family was about to take a rest when letters from Xiao Pei and Huan Yu arrived.

Xiao Xuan opened the letter and read it carefully, then walked into the inner room.

Chunyu Yi, who was already lying on the bed, asked: "What is written in Hanzhi's letter?"

Xiao Xuan handed her the letter: "I just asked about my father-in-law's physical condition, and also asked if we have any plans to return to Ruoshui City in the near future."

Chunyu Yi read the letter carefully and then said: "Hanzhi has been thinking about her father's health. We have dragged her down. She should have stayed in Tianshui County."

Xiao Xuan put his arms around her shoulders and said, "Don't think so much. It's a blessing in disguise. Some things are destined and no one can change them.
