Chapter 1774: Chapter 1771: Caution

Madam Wang also nodded: “Exactly, Abo, you better not treat everything lightly. Your wound is so big, if it’s not taken care of and develops a high fever, it won’t be good.”

Chu Bo nodded cautiously, knowing that if he hid the fact about his wound now, it might anger the elders, and he certainly didn’t want to be nagged by his mother in the future.

However, Madam Xie felt that Ye Muyu’s reaction seemed like there was something unsaid.

They met each other’s gaze; both were smart people and suddenly understood what the other meant.

Ye Muyu walked to the window.

Madam Xie did not call the maidservants to follow; she went and stood by Ye Muyu’s side, while the others stayed with Chu Bo, concerned about his situation.

“Ah Yu, is there something wrong? Do you need me to do anything?” Madam Xie asked softly, with concern.

Ye Muyu pursed her lips slightly and said, “It’s like this, I’m worried that someone might make a move against Abo and Miss Guo.”

“You mean…” Madam Xie’s breath hitched, quickly understanding Ye Muyu’s point, “Should we send a message to the residence then?”

Currently, Chu Bo and Miss Guo were witnesses. If the criminal hadn’t been caught, they might indeed make a move on them, and the easiest way would be to tamper with the medicine or food.

“I’m not worried about Abo’s side as we are guarding him, but Miss Guo…” Ye Muyu frowned, Miss Guo came to the temple this time with just one maidservant, and now King Qi’s people are looking after her.

King Qi’s side might not be as vigilant. Especially in chaotic times, it’s easy to find loopholes. Ye Muyu wasn’t sure if such a situation would occur, so she had already arranged for someone to alert King Qi.

“Let’s wait until the yamen people arrive, then we’ll return to the capital today. The hemostatic medicine I brought is effective enough.” Ye Muyu said thus.

Over on this side, Chu Bo was losing too much blood, hadn’t had lunch, and ran around, feeling a bit exhausted, and soon fell asleep after speaking for a while.

Ye Muyu thought for a moment: “Everyone must be hungry. I’ll go to the temple kitchen and cook something simple. Don’t let anyone else in when people arrive.”

Madam Wang quickly responded, “Third Brother’s Wife, shall I go do it?”

Madam Xie was also a bit surprised.

Ye Muyu gently shook her head: “It’s okay, I’m used to cooking at home regularly.”

She didn’t mention worrying about the food being unclean; although she was not very skilled in medicine, she had read many medical books and could distinguish various medicinal herbs, better prepared than everyone else present.

“Don’t eat any food that’s not brought by me, better to be cautious.” Before leaving, Ye Muyu didn’t forget to remind.

Madam Xie understood abruptly why Ye Muyu was doing this upon hearing the words, and lightly nodded: “Ah Yu, you go ahead, I’ll take care of things here.”

“Thank you, madam.” Ye Muyu nodded, and they exchanged a knowing glance.

After Ye Muyu left.

Not long after, Monk Nashan arrived, saying that the abbot arranged for him and the followers to come.

Madam Xie accepted the red date cakes brought by Monk Nashan with a smile, “Thank you, Abbot. Once we return to the capital, we will invite the abbot to join us in travel.”

“Amitabha, there’s no need to be polite, benefactor. This old monk will be in the side room nearby, should anything happen, you can call for this old monk. These two novice monks belong to the temple and are suitable for running errands; if there’s anything needful, just ask them.” Monk Nashan finished speaking and turned to enter the side room, and soon the faint sound of wooden fish could be heard.
