Gu Yumo didn't try to guess what Xia Liang's wish was.
After a moment of silence, the two of them chose to skip this question in a tacit understanding.
When Gu Yumo returned to the inn, Gu Zhu had already returned from the pharmacy.
"My lord, I have asked Xiaoer to boil the medicine. I also bought all the medicine powder you asked for, lord." Gu Zhu said, took a few medicine packets from the table, and handed them to Gu Yumo , and asked,
"My lord, what are these messy medicine powder packets? When I bought them, the shopkeeper looked at me strangely for a long time. I felt so weird...!"
Gu Yumo took it, and just said lightly, "Some useful things. Now you take my name card and the handwritten letter from my father, and go to Xiafu to visit."
"Ah? Young Master, are you going now?" Gu Zhu scratched the back of his head and asked in confusion, "Why are you in such a hurry!"
"Don't ask too much, just do it." Gu Yumo walked to the table, sat down, untied all the medicine bags in his hand, and said softly.
Gu Zhu was reprimanded by his son, pouted, and didn't dare to say any more, took out the famous post and handwritten letter from his bag, and hurried towards Xia's mansion.
After Gu Zhu left, Gu Yumo looked at the medicine powder packets on the table, feeling a little at a loss, and asked in a low voice, "How to mix and match. I don't understand these things."
After Xia Liang heard this, she looked at the powder with the same color, rolled her eyes, slightly hooked the corners of her mouth, and said,
"These things, just from the outside, can you tell what is what?"
"No." Gu Yumo inspected it carefully, but shook his head honestly, and said, "In my opinion, they are all white powder, there is no difference."
"That's right. You don't tell me what these things are, but let me see them with my naked eyes. Naturally, I can't tell you how to make them." Xia Liang said with a hint of distress, taking it for granted.
Upon hearing this, Gu Yumo pursed his lips lightly, paused, and asked, "Then what should I do?"
"Hmm..." Xia Liang gave a soft hum in a long voice, with a look of deep thought, and suddenly, she called out excitedly, and said,
"You take the jade pendant, come closer, let me smell it, and I'll know."
"Do you still have a sense of smell?" Gu Yumo was puzzled and suspicious for a moment when he heard this, and couldn't help raising his eyebrows.
"Yes. Yes." Xia Liang responded happily, and said, "Now that I am on your chest, I can smell your body fragrance, um... it smells very good, there is a faint fragrance of ink, and ..."
"Ahem...Okay, needless to say, I get it." Gu Yumo hurriedly interrupted her, feeling quite hot all over after what she said.
How could she say such intimate words casually, even though the relationship between them is indeed very close now.
However, after all, there is still a difference between men and women!
Feeling Gu Yumo's embarrassment, Xia Liang was immediately amused, and felt that it was really interesting to tease him, so she urged,
"Take the jade pendant and get close to these powders, let me smell them."
"Well. Alright." Gu Yumo took off the jade pendant, carefully held it in the palm of his hand, then approached one of the packets of powder, and asked proactively,
"Can you tell?"
"Yeah. Yes." Xia Liang was held in his hand, felt the warmth of his palm, smiled, and said, "Okay, we can go to the next one."
After Xia Liang smelled it once, he said, "You put me aside first, and then, follow my command."
Gu Yumo listened to her words, curled his lips into a smile, put the jade pendant aside, then looked at her seriously, waiting for her next instruction.
"You take out a new piece of paper first, then pick up the bag closest to you, start pouring, and stop when I say stop, then, and then, the second bag..." Xia Cool said calmly.
After waiting for a while...
"Is that enough?" Gu Yumo looked at the mixture of various medicine packs in front of him, which was said to be able to cure all kinds of perspiration medicines and antidote for aphrodisiacs. He couldn't help frowning, and had some doubts about its real effect. how.
"Yes. Absolutely no problem." Xia Liang said with confidence, "Okay, you can make another pack. This amount can make two antidote. You take one pack, and Gu Zhu takes one pack."
Gu Yumo didn't refute her words, but directly raised his hand.
His intelligence almost made him unforgettable with his eyes and ears.
So, this time, there was no need for Xia Liang's command at all, and Gu Yumo completed it by himself.
"My lord is so amazing!" Xia Liang said, "These antidote, you should take care of them, lord. They will definitely be used."
"I don't really hope to use it." Gu Yumo smiled lightly, but still packed up his things.
At this time, the shop waiter also brought over the concoction that had been boiled before. After Gu Yumo finished drinking, he rested for a while, and heard noises outside the inn.
"Here we come." Xia Liang said, "Xia Zhijie should have come in person, after all, you are the son of Shang Shu, he probably has heard of such a great official, he has never seen it with his own eyes, he would be scared to death. "
Gu Yumo chuckled, sat up from the bed, tidied up his clothes in an orderly manner, and said lightly,
"Those who have plans will naturally care about the size of the other party's official position. Only by having no desires and demands can we be neither humble nor overbearing."
"My lord, have you taken the imperial examination? Will you enter an official career in the future?" Xia Liang asked.
"I am now a Juren." Gu Yumo said lightly,
"Only if you have power, you can do what you want to do. Naturally, you will enter the official career, but there is no rush."
"En." Xia Liang responded softly, but rather absent-mindedly, "Young Master is right."
Obviously, her attention was drawn away by something, Gu Yumo frowned slightly, and was about to ask further.
"Boom!"
However, at this moment, there was a knock on the door.
Immediately afterwards, a polite but flattering voice came from outside the door—
"My lord, this is Xia Zhijie, the county magistrate of Jushui County, who came here to pay a special visit to you."
Gu Yumo had no choice but to go forward to open the door, temporarily putting aside Xia Liang's question.
Xia Zhijie, who was waiting outside the door, waited for the door to open, and when he saw Gu Yumo behind the door, his eyes lit up, and his eyes were full of appreciation and said,
"The young master is indeed a good-looking talent, with a personable demeanor, he looks like a dragon and a phoenix among people, noble and extraordinary! I am so lucky to welcome you to such a small place!"
