“It’s bitter, right?” Seeing Shen Yao finish the bowl of black medicine in one gulp, Ji Zhao could not help but frown. “Do you want a candied date?”
Shen Yao smiled and shook his head. “It’s not bitter.
‘Did you drink too much bitter medicine? Is that why your taste buds are out of whack?” Ji Zhao asked with concern. “Just now, the medicine smelled so bitter.”
Ji Zhao silently leaned forward, wanting to see if there were any changes to his tongue.
At this moment, Shen Yao suddenly wrapped his arms around her neck and kissed her lips.
A moment later, Ji Zhao, who was dizzy from the kiss, was completely stunned.
’11t seems… a little sweet?”
‘Ah Tao, you’re so cute.” Shen Yao looked at her adorable expression and could not help but raise his hand to gently tap the tip of her nose.
‘That shouldn’t be the case. I’ve read the prescription several times. Some of the medicinal herbs on it have a bitter taste. Why does it seem sweet after being brewed into medicine?” ‘Ah Tao, did you brew this medicine yourself?”
‘Yes.” Ji Zhao nodded silently.
“1 understand.” Shen Yao looked into her eyes and said seriously, ‘Because Ah Tao brewed it herself, this medicine is filled with Ah Tao’s feelings. Is that why it’s sweet?”
Pftt—
Ji Zhao was amused.
“1 suddenly feel myself cringing. What about you?
“Indeed, I’m not used to it.” Shen Yao could not help but laugh.
The moment their eyes met, they laughed again.
“What are you two talking about? Why are you so happy?” Eldest Sister-in-law Shen held her bulging stomach and knocked on the door.
‘Eldest Sister-in-law?” Ji Zhao quickly turned around and helped her into the house. “It’s cold outside. Why aren’t you resting in your room?
“1 sleep after I eat, eat after I sleep. Since coming home, my face became several times rounder!” Eldest Sister-in-law Shen could not help but complain. ‘Ah Tao, actually, I came to look for you to ask you something.”
“What is it?”
‘This morning, I heard from my parents that Pomegranate Village is really going to merge with Shanghe Village. This land will definitely have to be redistributed.” Eldest Sister-in-law Shen looked into Ji Zhao’s eyes and said sincerely, “Actually, I don’t mean anything else. I just saw Chenchen when I was eating just now.”
“1 heard from mother that Chenchen is very obedient and sensible. But I remember that Chenchen’s household registration hasn’t been completely moved to our house, right?” Sister-in-law Shen kindly reminded her. “Ah Tao, if you hope that Chenchen can participate in the imperial examination in the future, wouldn’t the household registration need to be changed?”
Ji Zhao really hadn’t thought of this. “Eldest Sister-in-law, thank you. If you hadn’t reminded me, I wouldn’t have thought of this.”
‘You’re just too busy. You have to run a shop and help with the oil-extraction workshop. How could you think of this?” Eldest Sister-in-law Shen took a sip of milk tea and said, “However, Chenchen is from Pomegranate Village. Logically speaking, the Ji family’s previous fields and assets should be transferred to his name.’
‘Ah Tao, I think you should settle the land and assets under Ji Chen’s name before the two villages merge. After all, he’s the only bloodline of the late Old Master Ji.”
“I understand.” Ji Zhao nodded slightly. “Eldest Sister-in-law, thank you so much.’
“I’ve already said that we’re family. You don’t have to be so polite.” Eldest Sister-in-law Shen quickly waved her hand. ‘Alright, I can’t sit still anymore. I have to go back and lie down to rest. By the way, you said earlier that we’ll eat fish with pickled vegetables tonight, right?”
‘Yes.” Ji Zhao nodded obediently. “There’s still more than half of the big fish left, so Mother and I discussed making pickled fish hotpot tonight.’
‘Okay!” Eldest Sister-in-law Shen narrowed her eyes happily. “Ah Tao, your dishes are too delicious!”
Ji Zhao accepted the compliment with a smile.
The afternoon sun was warm and warm. The snow covering the eaves gradually melted into water and fell down bit by bit.
The icicles hanging upside down on the roof emitted a dazzling light under the refraction of the sunlight.
When it was almost 1 pm, Ji Chen came to Ji Zhao’s room and called out obediently, “Sister?”
‘Are you cold?” Ji Zhao put a fluffy gray hat on Ji Chen’s little head and asked gently.
“1 have a hat. I’m not cold.” Ji Chen shook his head obediently.
‘Good boy!” Ji Zhao rubbed his cheek dotingly, and the smile on her face became even sweeter.
Looking at the warm interaction between the siblings, Shen Yao raised his eyebrows gently and reminded softly, “Ah Tao, Chenchen, come home early.”
‘Don’t worry.” Ji Zhao waved at him in an extremely carefree manner. Then, she held Ji Chen’s hand and walked out of the Shen family’s courtyard.
At that moment, Eldest Brother Shen had already prepared on the carriage. ‘Third Sister-in-law, Chenchen, are you ready? Hurry up and get in the carriage.”
‘Thank you, Big Brother!”
‘Ah Tao, I should be the one thanking you. Earlier..
“It’s all in the past,” Ji Zhao said with a smile. “Anyway, I’ll have to trouble you later! The snow on the road has just melted. If we walk, we’ll definitely wet our shoes. It’s all thanks to your foresight that you rented a carriage to go home.”
“I was afraid that the snowy road would be slippery and the ox cart would be too bumpy, so I rented a carriage to bring your sister-in-law back. I didn’t expect it to really come in handy.” Eldest Brother Shen scratched the back of his head and smiled foolishly.
‘That’s why I said big brother knows best!”Ji Zhao smiled and praised him. “But it’s getting late. Big brother, let’s set off now? I want to take Chenchen to burn incense for Grandfather first before returning to Pomegranate Village.’
‘Okay, get in the carriage!”
In less than an hour, Ji Zhao had already brought Ji Chen to Old Master Ji’s grave.
“1f the ground is cold, don’t kneel.” Ji Zhao stopped Ji Chen, who was about to kneel, and sighed. “Grandfather will understand.”
Ji Chen did not say anything. Instead, he obediently squatted beside Ji Zhao. After lighting the paper money, Ji Zhao placed the roasted chicken and pastries that she had prepared in advance in front of Old Master Jits grave. Her eyes were red as she sobbed. “Grandfather, Chenchen and I came to see you.”
A cold wind blew, and the weeds on both sides of the grave swayed gently. ‘Grandfather, don’t worry. I’ll take good care of Chenchen in the future.” Ji
Zhao wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and said softly, “Besides, Chenchen is becoming more and more obedient. He speaks much more nimbly than before. By the way, Chenchen knows how to memorize poems!”
The siblings lingered in front of the tomb for a while before leaving reluctantly.
‘Sister, don’t cry.” In the carriage, Ji Chen suddenly held Ji Zhao’s hand and said softly..
