Reborn to abuse the scumbag, the demon queen destroyed her ex-husband's entire family

If someone describes his eyes as watery, he will definitely treat him to a punch!

"Would you like some water? It might make you feel better."

After all, she was not familiar with that young lady, so it was just a matter of chatting for a few minutes and it passed. Xiao Ruge did not take it to heart. Now she was more concerned about Mu Gu's health.

Mu Gu thought for a moment, nodded, took two sips from Xiao Ruge's hand, and then leaned weakly on her.

"Ruge, I feel bad."

He recalled that when he had a fever before, as long as he said he felt uncomfortable, Xiao Ruge would obey him in everything. He felt that he could pretend to be weak and make Xiao Ruge feel sorry for him.

It not only brings benefits to herself, but also allows her to stop paying attention to that lady.

When Xiao Ruge heard him say that he was feeling uncomfortable, her attention was immediately drawn to him. She held his wrist and checked his pulse. After finding that his symptoms were not serious, she slowly exhaled a breath.

"Okay, okay, just drink the medicine and have a good sleep."

Xiao Ruge didn't notice that her tone was very gentle at this moment.

But Mu Gu found out, so he pestered her even more and held Xiao Ruge's waist tightly with his hands.

Not far away, Miss Dong frowned slightly, bit her lower lip and stared at two people under a tree not far away. There was confusion, grievance, and a hint of anger in her eyes.

"Miss, what are you looking at?"

The maid Qiaoqiao followed Miss Dong's gaze and saw two people sitting together under the tree. A look of astonishment immediately flashed in her eyes.

"Both of them are men, right? Why are they hugging each other?"

"how could I know?"

Miss Dong turned angrily and walked towards the carriage, no longer looking at the two people under the tree.

But tears welled up in her eyes, and it was obvious that she was very angry.

Clearly, that handsome young man was smiling at her last night, and the little fish lantern he gave her was still in the carriage. How could he be so intimate with someone else? And with a man at that!

Miss Dong was unable to accept this discovery for a moment. She climbed onto the carriage and started crying.

Qiaoqiao was startled and asked what was wrong, but Miss Dong was just crying and ignored her. She quickly climbed down from the carriage to find Nanny Dong.

Nanny Dong was directing the servants to build the stove and boil water. When she heard that the young lady suddenly started crying, she didn't care about that and quickly walked towards the carriage.

Miss Dong was still sad here, and Xiao Ruge and Mu Gu didn't know about this. But even if they knew, they probably wouldn't care too much.

After all, we are not very familiar with each other. At most, I can only give one or two words of advice, and there is nothing else I can do.

As lunch was ready, the medicine was also prepared.

Looking at the two bowls in front of him, one containing bitter medicine and the other containing white porridge with a little chicken leg meat, Mu Gu reached out and picked up the bowl.

The chicken was hunted by Mo Yi and his men just now. After all, there are so many people here, and it would not be enough to just eat porridge, so they hunted some wild game and roasted it to eat together.

Xiao Ruge's meal was much richer than Mu Gu's. In addition to white porridge, there were also baked steamed buns and half a rabbit.

Looking at Xiao Ruge eating heartily over there, Mu Gu felt a little greedy and couldn't help but stretching his neck to take a look.

"Ruge, I want to eat rabbit meat, too."

Considering that he was a patient, Xiao Ruge showed mercy and tore off a rabbit leg for him to eat with the porridge.

Seeing that he was eating well, Xiao Ruge pulled out another chicken leg and placed it in front of him.

Mu Gu thanked him with a smile and started eating with big mouthfuls.

The reason why she prepared light porridge and side dishes was because Mu Gu had a poor appetite. He would not be able to eat even if other things were prepared. Now that she saw that he had such a good appetite, Xiao Ruge felt relieved.

It’s good to be able to eat, so that your body can recover faster.

Half an hour after lunch, Mu Gu drank the warm medicine in one gulp. The bitter taste made him frown. It was Xiao Ruge who stuffed a piece of candied fruit into his mouth, which finally relaxed his frowning features.

I thought they would be the first to leave, but Miss Dong's carriage left first.

Mu Gu was happy when he saw this. When Xiao Ruge said they could set off, he deliberately made an excuse to delay for a while before getting on the carriage.

According to Mu Gu's request, they could just go back to Beijing, but Xiao Ruge was worried about his health, so he let him rest in the next town for two days.

By the time the two men and their team returned to the capital, it was already the end of the first lunar month.

Xiao Ruge did not follow Mu Gu back to Beijing, but instead went to the farm where Old Man Sun lived.

She received a pigeon message from Sun Yan yesterday, saying that rice merchants in Qizhou had started selling rice at high prices. According to Xiao Ruge's previous plan, he sold a batch of low-priced grain the next day.

Although it is a low price, it is still one or two cents more expensive compared to the current situation in Qizhou. If compared with the rice price in the capital, it is still one or two cents more expensive.

Xiao Ruge wrote back to Sun Yan, asking him to sell a fixed amount of low-priced grain every day for ten days, and then contact the grain merchants in Qizhou to see if he could buy grain from them.

Then he asked Old Man Sun to buy a batch of grain seeds and send them to Qizhou and give them to Chang Yunfei as a donation to Qizhou. When he went to Qizhou to collect grain in the future, he could let them save a penny.

"Miss, you asked me to look for the Xiao family's personal soldiers. So far, we have only found two of them. They have already gone back. It is estimated that they will arrive in the capital in another four or five days!"

After finishing what Xiao Ruge had asked him to do, Mr. Sun told Xiao Ruge a piece of news that made him a little excited.

"What are the names of the two people we found? Are they Grandpa's personal soldiers or Dad's?"

"They are from the old general's side. One is called Meng Daping and the other is called Wang Gensheng."

After confirming that the two would reach the capital in four or five days, Xiao Ruge decided to wait at the farm. Moreover, if she and Mu Gu returned to the capital at the same time, she was afraid that someone would investigate them.

Although she had disguised herself when she left Beijing, and had found someone with a similar body shape to go to the northern border, she still had to be prepared for the worst.

While Xiao Ruge was staying safely on the farm, Mu Gu had already entered the capital. His carriage went straight into the palace without stopping.

The emperor was discussing state affairs with the military minister in the imperial study. Mu Huan and Mu Bai were both there. A young eunuch ran in excitedly, knelt down and shouted, "Your Majesty, the Seventh Prince is back!"

"Old Seven is back? Announce it quickly!"

Following the emperor's order, Mu Gu strode into the imperial study with steady steps.

"My son, please send my regards to my father. May my father be blessed with peace and prosperity!"

Mu Gu lifted up his skirt, knelt down and kowtowed to the emperor.

"Hurry up! You wrote in the memorial that you were ill. Are you in such a hurry to travel before you are fully recovered? You look a little pale and have lost a lot of weight!"

Mu Gu did a great job in Qizhou this time. Not only was the emperor happy, but he also felt very proud when he heard the ministers mention it during court sessions.
