Chapter 317 I Can Control Them
Jiang Qing's words made Shen Ruolan's eyebrows jump, but she quickly reacted and turned back to Jiang Qing and said, "Your Highness, that is a matter of the court. I, Shen Ruolan, am just a woman. Please don't impose those unwarranted responsibilities on me."
Shen Ruolan's reaction was too calm. Jiang Qing stared at her again and asked, "You really don't care about Jiang Dichen's life or death?"
Shen Ruolan said expressionlessly: "Everyone has their own destiny. If someone really wants to die, I, Shen Ruolan, cannot stop them."
After Shen Ruolan finished speaking, she said to Empress Shen Mu Jin, "Mu Jin, send the Crown Prince back to his room, so that he won't pass on his illness to others."
"Yes, Madam." Mu Jin said to Jiang Qing, "Your Highness, please."
Jiang Qing glanced at Shen Ruolan's back, then turned and left without looking back.
That night, Ji Ning came to find his master and reported: "Master, the total amount of grain is 240,000 kilograms."
Shen Ruolan was silent for a moment after hearing what Ji Ning said, and then asked her, "How much food do you have left?"
Ji Ning said: "My Lord, there are only about 10,000 jin left."
Ji Ning had already calculated that these ten thousand kilograms of grain would be enough for the autumn harvest after they were eaten.
When Shen Ruolan heard that there were only 10,000 kilograms of grain left, she thought to herself, what a close call, they were almost running out of food.
Fortunately, the crops in her fields should be harvested soon, so even without this batch of food, they should not be too miserable.
Because we can still plant a season of wheat this autumn, and have a summer harvest next year, so we won’t starve.
Thinking of the autumn harvest, Shen Ruolan asked Ji Ning: "How is the rice? Has anyone started the autumn harvest?"
Ji Ning said, "Manager Miao said that we will start harvesting rice tomorrow."
Shen Ruolan heard that the rice would be harvested tomorrow, so she said to Ji Ning, "Okay, I understand. Go down. When the rice harvest starts tomorrow, have Miao Wei send someone to notify me."
"Yes, master." Ji Ning bowed to Shen Ruolan and left.
Shen Ruolan had a good sleep that night.
The next day, she got up early to make breakfast for the two children, and also made some simple cakes and snacks so that the children could fill their stomachs when they were hungry.
Because they have not had milk anymore and there is nothing else to eat in the mountains, if they get very hungry, they will inevitably cry and make a fuss, which is more heartbreaking.
At the dinner table, little An He took the cake her mother gave her. She took a little piece with her little hands and handed it to her mother, saying with a smile, "Mom, eat."
Shen Ruolan looked at the cake her daughter handed over. She lowered her head and took a bite. She smiled and said to her daughter, "Mm, it smells really good. An He, hurry up and eat."
When little Anhe heard her mother say that the cake was delicious, she took the cake and happily started eating it.
Shen Ruolan looked at her son who was eating cake silently. She held the bowl of dumpling soup and said to her son, "Zheyi, let's drink some soup."
Xiao Ze looked at his mother, smiled and nodded, saying, "Okay."
"Mom, drink it." When little Anhe saw her brother drinking the porridge, she reached out and grabbed her mother, wanting to eat too.
Shen Ruolan looked at her daughter and said, "Okay, drink it all."
After she finished speaking, she fed her son a mouthful and her daughter a mouthful.
Shen Qi came and sat down next to his granddaughter. He looked at the two children and said to her, "It's the mother who has to take care of the children!"
After saying this, he complained to his granddaughter, "These two little guys have never been so well behaved and obedient during the days when you were not at home."
When Xiao An He heard Shen Qi say that they were not behaving well, she immediately shouted to him with a smile, "Grandpa."
Shen Qi looked at the child who was smiling at him. He deliberately glared at her and said, "Humph, you can't smile, because you are the most naughty one anyway."
Little An He suddenly pouted and said to his mother with a wronged look on his face: "Mom, be good."
Shen Ruolan said to her daughter: "Well, mother's little An He is the best."
Little An He laughed happily after hearing her mother's words. While eating her porridge, she said to her mother, "Good brother."
"Yeah, they're all very well behaved." Shen Ruolan said with a smile.
After Shen Ruolan fed the two children, she scooped a bowl of porridge for her grandfather and said, "Grandpa, I heard everything. The two children have been tossing you around a lot during the days I was away from home. You've worked hard, old man."
Shen Qi took the bowl from his granddaughter and said to her with a smile: "Well, they are just two naughty kids. I can control them."
After Shen Qi finished speaking, he secretly planned in his mind that when the two children grew up, he would personally teach them medicine, and then he would give these two naughty kids a good treatment.
Shen Ruolan listened to her grandfather's words, she smiled, thinking of her own plan, she asked him tentatively: "Grandpa, I plan to open a medicine shop, I wonder if it will have any impact on Medicine King Valley?"
Shen Ruolan's words made Shen Qi pause for a moment, and then he thought of the many people behind her, and that she also had to treat patients, so he said to her without thinking: "If you want to open one, go ahead. There are so many medicine shops in the world, and not all of them are owned by the surname Shen."
Shen Ruolan heard that her grandfather had no objection, so she happily responded, "Okay, I'll start preparing after the medicine boy arrives."
When Shen Qi heard Shen Ruolan mention the medicine boy, he pointed at the youngest grandchildren at the next table and said, "Why are you looking for medicine boys? Just let them help you."
Shen Ruolan glanced at her cousins and said to her grandfather, "Grandpa, my cousins are all here to learn. It would be bad if they help me with chores and interfere with my work. I have already found a medicine boy, so let my cousins study hard."
"That's fine." Shen Qi thought what his granddaughter said made sense, so he didn't force it.
When Shen Hui heard that Shen Ruolan wanted to open a medicine shop, he quickly came to sit beside her and introduced himself to Shen Ruolan: "Sister Lan, what kind of medicine shop do you want to open? Why don't you let me help you? I'm not afraid of being delayed."
He is not cut out for studying medicine, but due to family reasons, he has to do something he doesn't like every day, which makes him feel uncomfortable.
Shen Ruolan looked at her cousin with shining eyes and said helplessly, "Third cousin, the medicine shop I plan to open is very simple. I will teach you how to identify herbs, collect them, and then collect them for processing. When I treat you, you just need a place to get your medicine."
Every time she took a patient's pulse, everyone was concerned about getting medicine, so she wanted to open her own pharmacy so that she could provide convenient service to everyone.
Shen Hui said: "I know all these things you said, so let me help you..."
Shen Ruolan interrupted him and refused, "No, I can't delay all of you, so you should all study hard with Grandpa."
Shen Hui wanted to insist on saying something, but Shen Qi said, "Alright, Lan'er has her own considerations, you are not allowed to disturb her."
After Shen Qi finished speaking, the disciples of the Shen family ate their meals in silence and no longer said a word.
Shen Qi looked at his granddaughter and said, "Lan'er, you can open it if you want. If you need help from grandpa, just tell me."
