Chapter 1142: Chapter 364: Secret Medicine_3

Mo Yan waved her hand, "They didn’t say anything bad about me, so why should I mind?"

Liu Tinglan breathed a sigh of relief, and then climbed onto her good friend’s arm with a cheerful smile, "Their great-grandfather and mine were blood brothers, but actually, our relationship has become quite distant. Aside from new year and festivals, we usually don’t interact. They only came over because I’m getting married. If you don’t want to talk to them, just giving them the cold shoulder is fine, too."

She was too embarrassed to tell Mo Yan that these cousins (tang jie/mei) wanted to socialize with her, the appointed County Lord, in hopes of elevating their own status through her. She couldn’t bring herself to engage in such things, so she had refused. Because of this, she had even been scolded by a few aunts, being called a white-eyed wolf.

Exactly because she knew the nature of these cousins, she didn’t dare have them as her bridal attendants; she was afraid they might say something inappropriate at the Shen family and tarnish the reputation of the Liu family, a scholarly lineage.

Indeed, although they were all Liu family girls, none of these families had produced a Scholar for several generations, the best among them was merely a child candidate. Liu Tinglan’s household, on the other hand, had seen three consecutive generations from her great-grandfather to her father become Scholars, which lent prestige to these other branches and earned them a higher regard outside.

Without Liu Tinglan mentioning it, Mo Yan would have no way of knowing these reasons. Seeing that nobody would enter the room for the time being, she sneakily took out a dusty little porcelain bottle from her purse, her cheeks blushing slightly as she handed it to her friend.

Due to the lighting, Liu Tinglan didn’t notice her friend’s unusual expression. She took the small grey bottle with curiosity and asked, "What’s inside this?"

Mo Yan patted her flushed face, attempting to maintain a serious demeanor, "These are pills I specially made for you. They’re beneficial for your body."

The moment Liu Tinglan heard that, without much thought, she opened the cork of the small grey bottle and popped a pill into her mouth.

"Stop!" Mo Yan exclaimed in shock, hastily reaching out to stop Liu Tinglan, "Don’t eat it, these pills are not for ingestion."

Liu Tinglan was also startled, quickly spitting the pill she had put in her mouth into her palm along with a few spits of saliva, and asked nervously, "Am I going to be poisoned to death?"

At that, Mo Yan couldn’t help but laugh, "It’s not as exaggerated as you say. Although the pills are not meant to be eaten, they won’t do any harm to your body if you do, so don’t worry."

After hearing this, Liu Tinglan finally relaxed. She was now even more curious about the small pill the size of her little thumb in her palm, "If it’s not for eating, then it must be for use, right? How should I use it?"

Faced with her friend’s curious baby gaze, Mo Yan coughed dryly, her eyes drifting away, "This pill... this pill is to be used down there."

"Down where? Come on, you have to be clear!" Liu Tinglan grew even more puzzled, unable to help pushing Mo Yan for an explanation.

Mo Yan’s face turned a visibly faster shade of red, and she was too embarrassed to spell out the pill’s exact use, so she leaned into her friend’s ear and whispered the explanation.

Liu Tinglan’s face turned instantly crimson, as if she could bleed any moment. Only a clatter was heard as the little grey bottle in her hand fell to the ground. Thankfully, the bottle had a narrow mouth, and only two greyish pills rolled out, scattering at their feet.

Mo Yan silently picked up the small grey bottle, put the pills that had fallen out back inside, and quietly took out another small grey bottle from her purse, placing it into her friend’s hand.

These unassuming pills held immense benefits for women, crafted from an ancient remedy she discovered in the Medical Code owned by her master’s family. Not only did they nourish a woman’s private parts, but they also harmonized conjugal relations, prevented various diseases, and were highly beneficial for conceiving children. No woman could refuse.

Liu Tinglan, with a stunned look in her eyes, murmured, "How many of these things have you made, exactly?"

Mo Yan blinked, her face showing no embarrassment as she stated, "As many as you need. There are twelve in this bottle, enough for a year. Once you run out, just come get more from me."

As beneficial as the remedy was, it was not easy to preserve and would lose its effect after a year. Mo Yan had made more than a hundred pills and stored them all in the Spiritual Energy Space, where they were nourished, only improving in potency over time.

Liu Tinglan’s lips twitched slightly, but she didn’t push the "indecent" little grey bottle back into her friend’s hand. Instead, she got up and found a tiny wooden box, placed the small grey bottle inside, and put it into a dowry box adorned with a ’happiness’ character. This dowry box was also one of the items she would bring to the Shen family as part of her marriage.
