Shen Yijia sized her up for a long time and gave up on trying to see if she was lying.

She took the clothes and put them on. After washing up, she went out.

In the courtyard, Ji Luo was organizing the herbs that had just been sent over as usual.

MO Yuan was actually very similar to her in this aspect. No matter where she went, she would definitely be busy with all kinds of herbs when she was free.

The difference was that MO Yuan would choose to pick herbs on the mountain herself, while Ji Luo was relatively rich. She would let the herb gatherers deliver themselves to her door and choose to buy a portion.

After the concoction was completed, apart from leaving behind some medicinal herbs that might be used usually, she would sell the other herbs to the medical center to earn the difference in price.

However, Shen Yijia knew better than anyone that her mother was not short of

money.

Shen Yijia was not short of money either, but she enjoyed doing these things. In the end, Shen Yijia classified it as a hobby.

“Jiajia is awake?” Ji Luo smiled.

“Yes.” Shen Yijia walked over and saw that there were several times more medicinal herbs piled on the ground than usual. She asked suspiciously, ‘Why did you collect so many today?”

“I accepted all the gifts they sent,” Ji Luo said.

Shen Yijia opened her mouth to ask why.

“I told them not to send it over in the future. I’ll take more this time.”

Shen Yijia suddenly understood. It was time for them to return to Great Xia. “By the way, Mother, do you know where my husband went?” Shen Yijia squatted down and helped her pick out the weeds mixed in the herbs.

Ji Luo paused. “He didn’t tell me. Don’t you know?”

Shen Yijia shook her head. Ji Luo’s expression did not seem to be fake. It seemed that her beautiful husband had really not told anyone where he was.

This inevitably made Shen Yijia a little worried. Could it be that he ran away because he didn’t want to have children with her?

“Ah Chen is a steady child. I think there’s something he can’t reveal. Don’t worry too much.” Ji Luo comforted her. “Think about it. If he could say it, he wouldn’t have hidden it from you.”

Shen Yijia thought for a moment. “That’s true.”

MO Yuan had prepared breakfast. As soon as the three of them sat down, there was a knock on the courtyard door.

Shen Yijia thought that Song Jingchen had returned, so she quickly put down the bowl and opened the door.

When she saw the person at the door, the smile on her face disappeared. She asked with a straight face, “What are you doing here?”

Eunuch Yu smiled awkwardly and bowed. “The Empress Dowager heard that

Young Master is awake and specially asked me to bring Young Master into the palace.”

If Empress Dowager Zhou wanted to see someone, she usually sent a young eunuch to pass on a message. That person should have entered the palace happily.

Not only had they sent a carriage, but Eunuch Yu had also personally come to pick them up. If it was someone else, it could already be considered a great favor.

Shen Yijia rolled her eyes. “What young master? Your young master isn’t here.

Did you come to the wrong door?”

Since he called him young master now, he would call her princess when the imperial edict came.

“I said no. Go back to where you came from. Don’t bother me again.”

With that, Shen Yijia closed the door.

Eunuch Yu was speechless.

“Eunuch Yu, this…” The young eunuch at the side wanted to scold her for not knowing what was good for her. Seeing that Eunuch Yu’s expression did not change, he quickly changed his words.” How are we going to report this to the Empress Dowager? ”

“Do you think the Empress Dowager didn’t know that this would be the outcome?” Eunuch Yu sighed and instructed, “Go and unload the things in the carriage.”

There were a total of three carriages. Apart from an empty carriage prepared for Shen Yijia, the other two were filled with various expensive gifts.

If she had not guessed that she would not enter the palace, Empress Dowager Zhou would not have asked him to bring the reward.

The young eunuch reacted and broke out in a cold sweat. Fortunately, he held back from cursing. Otherwise, he would have lost his head.

There were two cars, a total of eight wooden boxes covered with golden agarwood. Soon, they were done moving them.

Eunuch Yu went to the door, cleared his throat, and said, “Young Master, I’ve placed the Empress Dowager’s reward at this door for you.”

There was no movement inside.

He thought for a moment and said, “The Empress Dowager personally chose these things. They’re priceless. Don’t let others move them away.” With that, he hurriedly climbed into the carriage and urged, “Quick, let’s go.”

Everyone was stunned by his series of actions. They only reacted when he urged them again.

The dozen or so people quickly climbed into the carriage they had come in. The coachman waved his whip and the team left.

They looked like they were being chased by a ghost.

The courtyard door opened again. Shen Yijia walked out and frowned at the eight large boxes blocking the door.

“Since it’s for you, accept it,” Ji Luo said from behind her.

Shen Yijia hesitated. “But…”

Did accepting it mean that she had acknowledged that identity and accepted the old woman?
