Chapter 683: Chapter 614, Empress Dowager's Reward_1

After Xiao Yeyang left, Daohua stayed at Taohua Temple with Gu Jian and Granny Gu for two days before returning to the Yan Residence.

Once home, Daohua began preparing the medicinal ingredients needed for the Eight Meridian Pill, and by the time she had processed all the ingredients except for the Jingmiao Grass, more than half a month had passed.

In mid-June, Madam Jiang sent out invitations to the officials of Ningmen Prefecture, inviting the ladies of each family to admire lotuses at Jiang's suburban residence on the twenty-first of June.

Upon seeing the invitation, Daohua's entire being resisted, "It's such hot weather for admiring lotuses, not to mention the hassle."

Madam Li took the invitation from her daughter's hand and said indifferently, "Admiring the lotuses is secondary, I've heard that the twenty-first of June is Miss Jiang's birthday."
