Chapter 512: A Letter To Grandfather Mo

That was true. She sensed that her health had improved greatly as of late.
She had been in a good mood over the past year. Her son was engaged, and his marriage was settled. Her family was doing well, so she did not have to worry.
For the past few months, Gu Qingyao had given her food and tonics every two weeks. With such care, her health had certainly improved.
Gu Qingyao smiled and said, “I’m glad they’re effective. I’ve brought more for you. Aunt, you must eat them regularly so that you can regain your health more quickly.
“Although there are more children in the family now, they are very mature. Jiang Xun is already grown up and can work, so you must not exhaust yourself.”
When she said that, even Jiang Yingqiu could not help but smile. Others felt that there were more freeloaders in her family, and they were all mischievous boys too. They were sure she was burdened with many cares.
But the truth was that these children were all very mature and did not give her much cause for concern.
When her son was home, he did most of the cooking and the housework. After he left, Jiang Xun took over. She just had to help out a little, so she was not much more tired than before.
“The children are all very mature, especially Jiang Xun. He’s very capable. He does almost everything in the house. I’m barely involved sometimes.”
Gu Qingyao smiled. Everyone liked a grateful child.
“It’s winter now. You should have a good rest! The spring planting is starting soon, and you’ll have to work in the fields. When that happens, you mustn’t exhaust yourself. Brother Beihan can support all of you, so you mustn’t make yourself ill. Then we will all have to worry about you.”
Jiang Yingqiu continued to smile brightly as she said, “I know, I know. I will take good care of myself. You don’t need to worry about me. Just take care of yourselves.”
She was much less worried after finding out how much money her son earned. She felt less anxious.
Her son had found a wife and settled his nephews without her help. Under these circumstances, of course she must take good care of herself so that she did not burden her son.
Gu Qingyao took out the tonics. All these were to improve Jiang Yingqiu’s health. Some could be directly brewed and drunk, but some had to be added to food and boiled into soup.
She gave Jiang Yingqiu clear instructions for each of them. Jiang Yingqiu was gradually regaining her health and was using different medicines now, so she must clearly explain how to use them.
Jiang Yingqiu was rather embarrassed when she saw all these tonics.
“Yao Yao! These things are so difficult to obtain. Don’t bother in the future. I’m slowly getting better and I won’t need to do heavy labor anymore. These are too expensive.”
In these times, medicinal herbs were really expensive. Exorbitant in fact. She knew very well that the tonics Gu Qingyao had brought were even more expensive than food.
When she looked at the small piece of ginseng, she did not know what to say.
Gu Qingyao smiled nonchalantly. “Don’t worry, Brother Beihan sent all these.”
Jiang Yingqiu did not say anything.
As if her son could get hold of these things. He had never sent her medicinal herbs before!
These were very difficult to obtain.
It was more likely that since the Gus were doctors, they had used their connections to obtain these. The girl just wanted to put her heart at ease.
Gu Qingyao spent the afternoon at the Mo house, then returned home. She mainly went to the Mo house to play with the children.
Meanwhile, Mo Beihan had reached the provincial capital and he wrote a letter to Old Master Mo in the capital.
He wanted to raise the Gu family’s standing and needed the Old Master’s help.
