The Prime Minister Seduced Me to have Babies!-Chapter 278: I Want This

Zhang Shun laughed and said, "Boss, if it keeps being like this every day, Liu Zhu and I definitely won’t be able to handle it. We’ll need to hire one or two more helpers."

Yun Jiao shook her head and took the handkerchief Jiang Youzhi handed over to wipe her hands, "No need to rush."

"This is about seeing patients, not buying some scarce goods. It’s not going to be this crowded every day."

"It should just be these few days."

She thought for a moment and instructed Liu Zhu and Zhang Shun, "The more people there are, the less you should panic. It’s better to be a bit slow. Once the medicine is prepared, be sure to double-check, and absolutely no mistakes can be made."

Zhang Shun nodded, "Rest assured, boss, I have verified all the prescriptions today."

After putting up the door planks, they went to the back to eat.

The living room was packed full, Mrs. Chen locked the door and asked Ah Hu and Lao Jiu to set the table in the courtyard.

Everyone sitting around the table was in high spirits. With the store’s business doing well, their days ahead would be better too.

Today’s dining table had an additional braised duck, stir-fried twice-cooked pork, braised fish, and a big bowl of steamed egg with minced meat. Guihua’s cooking skills were getting better, truly making life enviable.

Even Mrs. Li had a smile on her face, thinking about those silks and headpieces, pondering how to ask her daughter for them.

After eating, Mrs. Chen quickly pulled Yun Jiao into the living room, pointing at the neatly stacked boxes, "What should we do with these things? There are more people at home now, and without a storeroom, they won’t be safe unless they’re placed somewhere proper."

Yun Jiao naturally wanted to put the items in the medicine storeroom, as there was no safer place.

She looked at the piled-up silks, "Mother, use whatever of these silks can be used; if not, you can exchange them next door."

"As for the rest of the items, I’ll store them in the warehouse over there."

Mrs. Chen was startled, "Isn’t that unsafe? No one lives there; if you put the things there, wouldn’t it be—" 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

Yun Jiao lowered her voice, "Rest assured, Mother. There’s a secret cellar in the walls over there. I’ll store the items well, and no one will find out."

Only then did Mrs. Chen nod, "Be sure to store them well, so no signs are noticed."

Yun Jiao came out and asked Ah Hu to pull the carriage over, then began moving the items onto it.

Mrs. Li watched as Ah Hu moved one box after another, growing anxious, "Where are these items being moved to?"

Yun Jiao vaguely replied, "It’s unsafe to leave them here with so many people coming and going. I’m moving them to a more secure place."

Mrs. Li became worried, "Where are you moving them? These items can be used, why store them away?"

Yun Jiao didn’t think these things were useful.

Was she supposed to wear all those headpieces and then go to the front to see patients?

She was afraid of dazzling the patients.

The jade bracelets too, you’d have to wear them very carefully, and a little carelessness could cause damage.

Clothes and jewelry should match the occasion.

In such a small and humble courtyard, wearing items this obviously valuable is like inviting robbery.

These eye-catching adornments are more suited to the grand houses where the ladies who never step outside compete in elegance and style.

Seeing fewer and fewer boxes, Mrs. Li panicked and pointed at a big black lacquered box, "Don’t move this one. I— I want this one."

She remembered clearly that this box contained a complete set of the Red Gold Pearl Headpiece that she had long had her eyes on.

She wasn’t greedy for the gold or anything else; she just loved these exquisite pieces of jewelry and silk.
