章 126: Chapter 126: Prenatal Medicine

作者: Joe Mai 機械翻訳

Mu Ru told Xi Muxue about what she had read in the book, but Xi Muxue simply rolled her eyes at Mu Ru. She then picked up the cloth bag that she had taken with her from the temple, threw it at Mu Ru, and said, "Go boil this for me to drink. The monk at the temple said that this is prenatal medicine."

Mu Ru frowned. She then pointed at the contents of the book and said, "It is stated in the book that medicines are not advisable, especially during early pregnancy. The child in your stomach is fine, so why would you take this medicine?"

"Are you bored?" Xi Muxue leaned on the sofa because she was dizzy. She looked at Mu Ru very unhappily. "Do you know more than the monk who gave that to me? Aunt Gu told me that in the past, when Ah Yu's mother was pregnant with him, she drank that, and twins came out. I want to drink that so I have a higher chance of bearing twins. I'll try to have twins in one go. We're both twins anyway, so the chances of me having twins are very high."

Mu Ru did not say anything else. Since Xi Muxue insisted on drinking it, and since Aunt Gu also insisted for her to take them, what else could she say? Besides, she had never been pregnant before. She knew nothing about such things, so she could not argue that whatever Aunt Gu and the monk said to Mu Xue were not true just because the book she had read said so.

As she thought about the fact that she had never been pregnant before, she felt nauseous, as if she was going to throw up. She thought that the contents of the cloth bag had a strong odor, so she instinctively put it away.

She did not know what kind of plants and herbs were inside. Just as she had steeped the bag in the pot of boiling water, Mu Ru ran to the kitchen sink to throw up.

"First Young Madam, what's wrong?" Mother Liu asked when she saw that Mu Ru was vomiting blood.

Mu Ru's pale face turned to Mother Liu. She shook her head and said, "I don't know. I think I caught a little cold at the temple today. I brewed this medicine for Second Young Madam, and it's too smelly. I can't get used to it. I feel like throwing up just by smelling it."

Mother Liu's nose twitched, and she looked at Mu Ru. "It smells a little unpleasant, but it's not as smelly as you said. It's probably because your sense of smell is too sensitive," she said.

Mu Ru nodded. She had vomited twice and felt very uncomfortable. She did not say anything more to Mother Liu. She just continued to watch as the pot boiled for two more hours, which was according to Xi Muxue's instructions.

By the time Mu Ru had finished brewing the concoction, Xi Muxue was no longer on the sofa. Mu Ru thought that Mu Xue went upstairs. She frowned, but she laid out the teapot and a cup on a tray to bring it up to Mu Xue.

She pushed open Xi Muxue's bedroom door. She hesitated for a moment before she walked in. Only then did she realize that Xi Muxue's room was designed almost similarly to hers. The only difference was that Xi Muxue's room was decorated in red and pink. It looked cheerful.

Mu Ru's room was painted in black, white, and gray. It looked cold and stiff, typical of a man's room. Every time she walked inside her bedroom, she would feel cold. Mu Xue's room gave off a very warm feeling.

"This has been brewed for two full hours," Mu Ru said as she placed the tray on Mu Xue's bedside table.

Xi Muxue opened her eyes to take a look. "Oh, put it there," she said to Mu Ru. Then, with a bitter face, she muttered, "I'm not feeling well now. I'll drink it after it cools down."
