The Hunter’s Lively Wife
Chapter 246 - Chapter 246 Chapter 246 Preparation

Chapter 246: Chapter 246 Preparation Chapter 246: Chapter 246 Preparation Su Yunjin didn’t know what Gu Ya was thinking?

With the purchases she made, Su Yunjin planned to first take them to the kitchen. After putting them away, she would go to treat Lord Gu Chengxiang’s illness! If she could sort out the Gu Family’s affairs quickly, Su Yunjin also intended to return to the Su Family to help her elder brother, Su Muze, redeem the Indenture Contract.

“Husband, I’ll move these things to the kitchen! Then I’ll go treat your father’s illness!”

The meat and flour on the table needed to be taken to the kitchen, but seeing his young wife’s forehead covered in sweat, Gu Ya said, “Yunjin, come here.”

“What for?”

Still suspecting Gu Ya might need to go to the latrine again, Su Yunjin tentatively asked, “Do you want to go to the latrine again?”

“…” Gu Ya was silent.

Was it because he asked his young wife to help him to the latrine a few times, that she now really thought anytime he called for her it was to go to the latrine?

Su Yunjin also realized Gu Ya didn’t need to go to the latrine, and although she didn’t know why he was calling her over, she still walked over to him as told.

Gu Ya said, “Yunjin, lower your head a bit.”

“Why?” Was this man trying to take advantage again? Asking her to lower her head? But just then, she heard Gu Ya say, “There’s sweat on your forehead, let me wipe it for you.”

So he just wanted to help her wipe the sweat off.

Understanding Gu Ya’s intention, Su Yunjin didn’t let him help but said indifferently, “I’ll wash my face later.”

Leaving a stiff-faced Gu Ya behind, Su Yunjin carried the items from the table and walked out of the house.

The weather was hot. To prevent the lean meat she had brought back from spoiling, Su Yunjin found a wooden basin to soak the meat in cool water. She put the flour in the rice container and stored all kinds of seasonings on the kitchen counter so they would be handy whenever she needed them.

The lard was also soaked in cool water.

After preparing these items, Su Yunjin, carrying the medicine for Lord Gu Chengxiang, found Mrs. An and said, “Mother, I’ve already bought back the medicine for father.”

“Yunjin, can you treat your father’s illness now?” Mrs. An asked joyfully, looking forward to her daughter-in-law treating Gu Ya’s father’s illness.

Su Yunjin replied, “Mother, there’s no rush to treat father. The medicine I fetched for father includes oral and topical ones. For the oral medicine, you can first take them to the kitchen to decoct for father.”

Having Mrs. An decoct the medicine for Lord Gu Chengxiang, Su Yunjin went to prepare the external medicine. The herbs she had fetched were dried and couldn’t be applied directly to the wound. They needed to be crushed into small pieces, turned into granules, then mixed with water to form a paste before use.

After hearing Su Yunjin’s words, Mrs. An took the herbs from her hands and said, “Daughter-in-law, then mother will go and decoct the herbs for your father.”

“Mother, simmer on a low flame; the medicinal effect will be stronger that way,” Su Yunjin reminded Mrs. An.

Mrs. An nodded, “Daughter-in-law, mother understands.”

As Mrs. An went to the kitchen, Su Yunjin didn’t idle around. She took the remaining herbs and went to the courtyard to find two stones to crush the herbs into small granules.

While Su Yunjin prepared the external medicinal paste, on the other hand, Mrs. An also managed to decoct the herbal medicine for Lord Gu Chengxiang to take.

“Daughter-in-law, the medicine is ready!” Mrs. An came out holding the medicine up.

Su Yunjin looked at the bowl of medicine in Mrs. An’s hand, a full bowl emitting the bitter scent of the herbs. Now that both the internal and external medicines were ready, it was time to treat her father-in-law. “Mother, let’s go. Now I can treat father.”
