Chapter 608: Chapter 557: A Zither and A Sword_1

Knowing that Xiao Yeyang would be leaving for the Northern Frontier in a few days, Daohua and Gu Jian found themselves too distracted to focus on eating. After sitting for a brief moment, they summoned Caiju to clear the table before each returned to their rooms.

Early the next morning, Daohua handed a list of medicinal herbs and spices that she had written overnight to Wang Manman, “Go back to Ningmen Prefecture immediately, take these two lists to Jin, the butler at the Rouge Shop, and have him prepare everything on them. Then send them back to me.”

Usually, Daohua would intentionally have the butlers of various shops collect some precious, rare, or scarce spices and medicinal herbs. Every so often, the butlers would deliver them to the Rouge Shop to be stored and accounts settled.

Wang Manman quickly took the lists and left.

During breakfast, when Daohua and Xiao Yeyang saw that Grandma Gu was in fairly good spirits, they both couldn’t help but feel relieved.

Throughout the meal, Grandma Gu repeatedly insisted that Xiao Yeyang should not go to the Northern Frontier, but Gu Jian swiftly changed the subject each time.

After the meal, in order to distract Grandma Gu’s attention, Gu Jian turned to Daohua, “Aren’t you going to brew Peach Blossom Wine? Go and brew it with Yeyang now, and let us have a look. My sister and I have never seen anyone brew wine.”

Daohua quickly got up, “I’ll go right now.”

Later, Daohua and Xiao Yeyang brewed wine in the courtyard while Grandma Gu watched from under the eaves.

“Grandma, look at Xiao Yeyang, he’s sticking peach blossoms on my forehead again!”

“It’s quite becoming to have a flower decoration on you.”

“I don’t want it, it’s all damp.”

Watching the two children tease and frolic, Grandma Gu’s mood greatly improved. She took the medicine that Gu Jian handed her, took a deep breath, and downed it with a ‘glug glug.’

After she finished the medicine, Gu Jian immediately handed her some honey dates that Daohua had prepared.

Grandma Gu took one and held it in her mouth. After the taste of the medicine had faded somewhat, she spoke, “Go to the old house and fetch the things.”

Gu Jian glanced at Grandma Gu, nodded his head, put the medicine bowl back in the kitchen, and instructed Caiju to look after Grandma Gu before he descended Taohua Mountain.

Because the kitchen stoves were rather small, halfway through, Daohua and Xiao Yeyang took a trip to a village at the foot of the mountain to steam glutinous rice. When they returned, they saw Grandma Gu and Gu Jian sitting in the courtyard, one cleaning the guqin, the other polishing a sword.

They were both immediately drawn to the scene and set down what they were carrying to walk over.
