, pondered for a moment, and felt he couldn't keep it hidden any longer. He tried to speak as delicately as possible."Mother, don't worry, let me explain. This man is a scoundrel from the underworld....Doctor Chang felt a surge of helplessness.

If he were an ordinary patient, he could try prescribing a medicine.

But this room holds the county princess, a beloved daughter of the emperor and a treasured jewel of the Li family, treated like her own flesh and blood by the marquis.

He wouldn't dare to act recklessly even if you gave him ten times the courage!

If he messes up, his head's going to be moving any minute…

"This... um..." Dr. Chang hesitated for a long time, choosing life over face.

He let out a sigh and whispered, "To be frank, Madam Dowager, I am truly unable to diagnose what ailment the Miss is suffering from. Her pulse is most peculiar."

"I'm incompetent, Madam. Perhaps you should find someone more capable."

Then, he pulled up his sleeve to cover his face and, with the medicine boy, hurriedly left in disgrace.

Tao Hongying hurried to catch up and stuffed a purse.

The pouch held two taels of silver, which was considered the customary fee for Dr. Chang's journey.

She hadn't forgotten to remind him, "Doctor Chang, if you have some free time, please help ask the rest of our old friends and recommend a few more people to come over. Thank you for your hard work."

"Alright, alright." Dr. Chang felt even more guilty and took his pouch before rushing onto the carriage to bid farewell.

At the village entrance, Zhang Shenyi was sitting under a large tree with the village head. Seeing this, he couldn't help but sneer.

"Hmph, a bunch of fools, can't even see through a child's prank."

The village head knew this old brother's temper well, and quickly said: "Don't you know who the county princess's disciple is Of course they can easily fool them!"

Indeed, Zhang Shenyi proudly raised his chin, his eyes squinting with delight...

In the back garden of the Li residence, Jia Yin was wiping her face with a damp towel, secretly smiling: “Luckily this doctor didn't delay any longer. Otherwise, my sweat would have washed away all my makeup.”

Having said that, she instructed Shui Ling, "Remember to put two more ice basins in the room next time."

Shui Ling smiled and nodded, "Miss, you almost gave yourself away just now. I saw your eyes move."

Li Lao Tai also tapped her granddaughter's forehead and said, "I also saw you twitching your mouth."

"Oh, pretending to be unconscious is too hard," Jia Yin complained with a frown. "Next time I'll pretend to be weak, I don't have to sleep."

"Just watch over there, this is the first doctor to arrive. Afterward, there'll probably be many more coming. Don't let anyone know about it." Li Laotai waved her hand and left.

She didn't know how her granddaughter had gotten into this situation. When she first saw her granddaughter, she was startled and worried that something might be wrong with her.

However, seeing her granddaughter lively and playful again, she felt at ease.

Tao Hongying then left too, it was almost time to make lunch. She would still add an extra bowl of milk custard to her daughter to supplement her nutrition.

Just now, my daughter's face was pale and her lips were purplish. It was frightening to see...

Jia Yin finally wiped her face clean, and she let out a long sigh of relief.

On the other side, Shui Ling was in high spirits, gleefully fiddling with her jars and bottles of cosmetics, enthusiastically applying them.

"Miss, tomorrow I'll make your lipstick color a little lighter, today's still a bit unnatural. Also, the dark circles under your eyes can be darkened a little more..."

Jia Yin's forehead was marked with lines, this girl treated her as a guinea pig!

She decisively drove people away and then slipped into the space, continuing to ponder her grand undertaking.

Over the past two years, besides planting jadeite cucumbers and golden fruits, and tending to the orchard on the mountain, the pig farm has also expanded significantly. It can now raise over a hundred pigs at the same time.

Not far from the pig farm, a chicken farm was built, and even a small house was set aside to raise earthworms separately. The chopped earthworms were fed to the chickens.

This way, the chickens grow meat quickly and lay many eggs.

Worm castings and soil in a 1:3 ratio make the best nutrient-rich soil, perfect for planting flowers in your garden.

Li La'er was also willing to use this nutrient-rich soil as a gift, which pleased the elderly gentlemen who were willing to raise flowers.

Of course, the chicks benefit the most from having a worm farm.

The number of chicks in the chicken coop is fixed at around three hundred.

The fire is burned from October every year until May of the following year.

The chicks are kept warm, and by controlling the number of chickens and their time entering the coop, there is no interruption in egg production during winter. We can collect over two hundred eggs every day.

Both male chickens that are raised for meat and hens that have been culled can be slaughtered at any time in batches of dozens.

And these pigs, chicken meat, and eggs, besides supplying the fairy guests, are also used for gift-giving during the Li family's New Year celebrations.

And everyone is happy to receive these things.

It's rare to see eggs in winter, but the pork and chicken from Li's family are especially fragrant.

This year, all the fields in the village, even those belonging to Big and Small Wang's estates and Da Huai Shu Village, were planted with emerald melons and golden fruits.

When summer ends, they can sell the harvested crops and then rush to plant another round of turnips and cabbage. Then people in several villages have no more work to do.

Firstly, there are too many cabbages and radishes planted, and we can't finish eating them all.

Secondly, too many idlers can easily lead to problems, such as gambling and wandering into cities.

So, Jia Yin wanted to expand the pig farm and chicken coop, and even bother with more greenhouses for growing vegetables.

Then, before the autumn ended, he searched for a good location in the city and set up a large stall, similar to a fresh produce supermarket from his past life.

Thus, eggs, chicken meat, pork, various vegetables, and fruits are sold together.

In the city, wealthy households would pay no less than a hundred or so taels of silver for fresh vegetables and fruits in winter.

One family has one hundred taels, ten families have a thousand taels, a hundred families have…

Jia Yin was confident. This winter, she would definitely fleece these fat sheep in the city and get two or three thousand wool!

Except for what was given to the villagers, she managed to keep more than half of it.

She needed to stockpile food and medicinal herbs, after all, her stepfather and father were still on the northern campaign.

In two years, the Tianwu nation's strength will recover even better, and there will be a big battle with the barbarians!

It is a matter of either recapturing the Jiangbei mountains and rivers or seeing Tianwu completely perish, all hinging on this single decisive move.

Of course, the Emperor and the imperial court had also been preparing for this crucial battle.

But Jia Yin is accustomed to relying on herself for everything and doesn't want to place all her hopes on others.

Moreover, these outsiders were emperors and a group of old foxes accustomed to playing with power...

If both the stepfather and father were to meet with misfortune, for the Emperor and the court, it would be merely the loss of a marquis and a general.

But for the Li family, it was the sky falling.

She can't allow it!

So, no matter how much she prepared, she still felt it wasn't enough...

On the second, third, and fourth days, doctors from the city kept coming to Suijin Beach to show off their skills after seeing the notice.

Unfortunately, everyone left in a sorry state.

To cure diseases and save lives, you must first know what kind of illness it is before prescribing the right medicine.

But all the physicians were extremely astonished by the pulse of the county lord, never having heard of or seen anything like it before, and had no idea how to treat it.

In the New City, who knows how many people were following this matter.

As the news brought back by the doctors spread, discussions became even more lively.

"I heard that Princess Kangle is very ill, it's definitely not a joke. Dr. Chang from Huichuntang, Dr. Li from Kangtai, and Dr. Zhao from Fuhuai have all been to Suijintan, and they all sighed when they came back."

"I heard the same thing, that the county princess is gravely ill and her condition has worsened rapidly!"e, everything else about the white clouds is great!And the remaining few are those who have no need for money.The white cloud cake, named by the emperor, is fragrant, sweet and soft. I bought a piece...
