When Chu Maogen heard Chu An’s words, his hand that was about to reach out to take the bowl instantly retracted. His honest face was slightly embarrassed.

Chu Lin noticed their reactions.

Seeing Chu An say this, it was obvious that he did not want to take advantage of Chu Heng.

After all, the lunch cost a lot of copper coins.

Although he also liked his Third Sister-in-law’s cooking, since Chu An, his eldest cousin, had said so, as his biological brother, he was too embarrassed to take advantage of her.

They coughed lightly, picked up their tools, and continued to work on the wall.

Ye Muyu had a simple breakfast.

Carrying the basket, she was about to go out when she saw the children coming again. There were four plots of land near her house. Yesterday, the group of children had finished two plots of land. By the time the wall would be repaired, the weeds in the fields would all be gone.

Ye Muyu had a good impression of these kids. She smiled and said, “There is tea on the table in the courtyard. If you are thirsty, go and pour it yourself.”

“Thank you for your hard work.”

“Auntie, you’re welcome.”

Ye Muyu reached out and rubbed the child’s head before walking to the bridgehead.

Yesterday, she decisively gave the children who worked copper coins. Although she spent dozens of copper coins, it was not a loss.

Ye Muyu crossed the bridge and entered the clinic.

“Doctor Lu.” Ye Muyu walked into the clinic and greeted him.

Doctor Lu was already forty years old and had always lived in the village.

Seeing Ye Muyu come over, he waved his hand and said, “Chu Heng’s wife, are you here to get the medicine? I knew it was time for you to take the medicine.”

“Let me take your pulse first.”

Ye Muyu walked over and found a chair to sit on before placing her wrist on it.

Doctor Lu felt her pulse for a long time before he put away the pulse pillow.

“Why is your body getting worse?”

“What have you eaten recently?” Doctor Lu asked with a frown.

Ye Muyu immediately thought of the so-called talisman water that the original host had taken before. Seeing the doctor’s frown and her body feeling weak these days, she thought about it and said honestly, “Some time ago, I heard about the talisman water was from the City God Temple, so I bought it and drank it. I wanted my body to recover faster.”

“Nonsense.” When Doctor Lu heard this, he scolded angrily, “Your body can be cured, but you need to take your time to recuperate. With your family’s conditions, how can you not recuperate?”

“What is that talisman water? Can it be eaten?”

Of course, Ye Muyu knew that some of the paint contained poisonous elements. It would be strange if he could be fine after drinking the talisman water for a long time.

Therefore, when the original host had a cold and drank the talisman water, she passed away just like that.

Otherwise, she would not have transmigrated here.

“Doctor Lu,” Ye Muyu replied honestly, “I know that I was too desperate. I promise that I won’t take any other medicine in the future. Please prescribe me more medicine. I will definitely follow your instructions in the future.” Seeing Ye Muyu’s good attitude, Doctor Lu stopped scolding her. “Then sit down for a while. I’ll get you some medicine.”

Ye Muyu quickly responded and stood up. After a while, he received the medicine and paid two taels of silver.

“Drink this medicine once a day and boil it for three days.”

“Eat more nutritious food like eggs and chicken soup. Don’t be reluctant. If you eat well, and your body is better, the effect of the medicine will be better.”

Ye Muyu could roughly understand what he meant. Her immune system would be stronger if her body was better.

“Got it. Sorry to trouble you, Doctor Lu.”

After leaving the clinic, Ye Muyu went to the bridgehead to buy meat again. This time, she planned to buy a chicken that could be stewed for two days..
