The Prime Minister Seduced Me to have Babies!-Chapter 261: A Piece of News

The third daughter ran out to inform Yun Jiao.

Yun Jiao assumed that Mrs. Li was genuinely sick from the exhaustion of travel.

She lifted her skirt and hurried into the room, where she saw Mrs. Li lying on the bed. She looked at Mrs. Li’s complexion and asked, "Where do you feel uncomfortable?"

Mrs. Li’s voice was thin, "I, I don’t feel well all over."

Yun Jiao slightly furrowed her brows and sat down to take Mrs. Li’s pulse.

She carefully felt Mrs. Li’s pulse, noticing some depression and a slight deficiency in blood and qi, nothing too serious, and certainly not something that would prevent her from getting up.

She glanced at Mrs. Li, noticing her eyelids fluttering despite being closed, and suddenly understood; Mrs. Li was feigning illness again.

She released her hand and stood up, looked at Mrs. Li, and said indifferently, "Your illness is due to hunger."

"You don’t need medicine, just get yourself a bowl of rice and you’ll feel better." After saying this, Yun Jiao left.

Mrs. Li’s face turned red.

She bit her lip, puzzled about why in the past, Yu Lang couldn’t see through her act of feigned illness, but her daughter could?

Moreover, even if she was pretending to be ill, shouldn’t her daughter care for her?

Unable to hold back, she silently shed a few tears on the bed.

However, her stomach growled in hunger, her stomach seemed to be spasming, and she got up from bed, weakly swaying, and went out.

The dishes had been tidily cleared from the main room.

She staggered to the kitchen, where Guihua saw her and hurriedly said, "Sister Li, the food has been heated on the stove for you."

While eating, Mrs. Li pondered that this trick was useless with her daughter; what should she do next?

She genuinely didn’t know how to get closer to her son and daughter.

All three children were nursed by the wet nurse and raised until they were three or four years old.

Occasionally when in high spirits, she would play with the children, but her main focus was on taking care of herself and pleasing her husband.

She excelled in how to be coquettish to her husband, show weakness to elicit her husband’s affection.

From a young age at her maternal home, she employed similar tricks to be pampered by her family.

Clearly, this trick didn’t work on Yun Jiao.

While eating, Mrs. Li was troubled.

At that moment, Yingzi ran in, and Guihua pulled her into her arms, "Having just eaten, don’t run around. Look at you, all sweaty."

As she spoke, she took out a handkerchief to wipe Yingzi’s sweat.

Yingzi hugged Guihua and twitched a few times, "Mom, give me two Copper Coins, I want to go with the third daughter to buy some candies."

Guihua tapped Ah Yingzi’s forehead, took out two Copper Coins, and handed them to Yingzi, "How can you be so greedy, having just eaten?"

Yingzi giggled and ran out.

Mrs. Li watched the mother-daughter interaction, trying hard to recall; it seemed that none of her three children had ever acted spoiled in her arms.

She carefully thought about it, remembering that she used to often act spoiled in her mother’s arms as a child; why don’t her children do the same?

After finishing her meal, Mrs. Li returned to her room in low spirits.

Meanwhile, several people from the Guild came to the shop front again, all to buy White Medicine.

White Medicine stops bleeding quickly, and they often get scratched or injured while moving cargo boxes at the dock, so this medicine is very useful.

Those buying the medicine chatted as they walked, "I heard notices are posted everywhere, and there’s a great reward for anyone who can cure Prince Kang’s mother’s eyes."

"Oh, if only I were a Doctor, it’d be a thousand Gold, and I wouldn’t have to worry about anything for life."

Yun Jiao listened intently to their discussion, contemplating in her mind.

Her pharmacy has been open for over a month, yet it still hasn’t gained momentum.

Few prescriptions were filled, and even fewer people came for treatments.
