Chapter 650 Frostbite Ointment

"Shaoyu is more capable. Jiulang will go out with you and everyone will be more energetic.

The fourth aunt was grateful for his move, so she said with gratitude in her eyes.

"Ninth brother has been sick for so many days. He should have gone out for a walk long ago. Before, I was afraid of delaying his treatment. Now that everything is on track, it's time to look forward, right?"

Gu Jiulang nodded heavily. Now he is even more active in treating diseases than before. After all, he has found the value of his existence.

Luo Yi walked to Gu Jiulang's side, reached out and shook his generous palm.

It was still a bit cool in the late autumn evening, but Gu Jiulang's hands were warm at the moment, so he knelt down and said.

"Lu Jue brought me a hand stove heater. I'll burn one for my husband tomorrow, okay?"

Gu Jiulang nodded. At this moment, he saw that although Luo Yi was not as refined and luxurious as those ladies, the love between the two had not diminished.

"Let's go, dinner is ready. Ninth brother will try it this time. The sui'an dishes made by Danruo are also very delicious!"

Du Jingyi came forward and said something to Gu Jiulang.

Gu Jiulang is now a hundred times more convinced of her sister-in-law, so even though she is not very old, Gu Jiulang always respects her.

After such a day of hard work, everyone is also hungry.

Especially the children, it was the time when their bodies were growing, so they ate everything in a hurry, and then went back to their rooms to rest.

In Xitang Courtyard.

Gu Shaoyu told Du Jingyi what he wanted to say today. Du Jingyi was a little surprised at first, but he quickly came to his senses.

"General..."

Being childless has never been a big deal for their family of four.

Moreover, the Du family's business has been taken over by Du Jingyi for a long time, so even if they don't follow this path, the Du family will not break up.

However, in the eyes of outsiders, he is always regarded as the absolute son of the Du family.

Therefore, Du Jingyi was happy for his proposal, but she also thought about the situation of Ajie's family. If Brother Cong really adopted the Du surname, then the family would have to be sorted out early, and she must not let it happen. Sister is the one who suffers.

So, after thinking for a moment, he said.

"I should write to my father and mother about this matter first. They and sister are both in Sui'an City. If you want to discuss this matter, it will be convenient."

"Well, it's fine as long as Madam makes the decision."

"Brother Cong, I'd better ask first. If the child doesn't want it, it's not good for us parents to be too reluctant."

Gu Shaoyu smiled when he heard this and replied to him.

"I've asked about this in advance, and the boy is very happy."

Du Jingyi thought about it, Brother Cong liked to learn various student ideas from his father since he was a child, but he didn't feel any rejection.

"Okay, I'll send you a letter first and ask."

The night was as cold as water, but everything in the General's Mansion was warm.

With Gu Jiulang having sustenance, life flies by.

It had only rained a few times in late autumn when the entire Cezhou was enveloped by a gust of winter wind. The wind here was not as gentle as Jinling City, nor as cold as Sui'an City, but with a biting coldness.

Fortunately, the heating pavilion in the General's Mansion was prepared in advance, so everyone was not so timid in the winter.

However, the floor heating still had to burn, especially in Gu Jiulang's courtyard. The fire never stopped. Not only the house, but also the courtyard was specially modeled after the General's Mansion in Sui'an City, using hot spring water for dipping.

Therefore, although it was cold outside, Gu Jiusi's small courtyard was exceptionally warm.

Therefore, his condition has improved a lot. The only troublesome thing is that the frostbite on Luo Yi's hands and feet has returned again. Sometimes the pain is so painful that she can't sleep well.

On this day, Du Jingyi bought useful frostbite ointment from outside and delivered it. As soon as he walked in, he saw that Luo Yi was scratching so badly that some places were even bleeding. His fingers were swollen like sticks and were red.

Du Jingyi took two steps quickly and said distressedly.

"Quickly, using this ointment may make you feel better."

Luo Yi didn't expect Du Jingyi to come, so he stood up and said something.

"Sister-in-law."

She can still learn Mandarin well now. Although she is not as good as the children, she can still open her mouth to call people.

The maid Cai'er took the ointment from Du Jingyi's hand and quickly applied it on Luo Yi's fingers.

The cold feeling hit Luo Yi, and Luo Yi quickly got over it.

So she picked up the ointment and gave a thumbs up, and said with a smile.

"This thing is so useful, it doesn't hurt anymore!"

Most of the frostbites on her hands were caused by taking care of Gu Jiulang who was paralyzed in bed. At that time, he was always unable to take care of himself, so he had to change and wash frequently to avoid bedsores on his body.

So even in the coldest month of winter, she still needed big baskets of laundry and beds, and she naturally fell into this habit after coming and going.

When Luo Yi saw Du Jingyi's fingers as slender as jade, there was a flash of inferiority in his eyes, but he soon felt relieved.

Then he raised his hand and said jokingly.

"Sister-in-law's hands are so beautiful. They are as white and tender as radish seedlings, unlike mine, which look like old tree bark after working too much."

When Cai'er translated these words, the distress in her eyes was no less than Du Jingyi's.

She was sold out when she was young, and she learned the rules of how to serve others. However, in Gu Jiulang's small courtyard, Madam Luo Yi never treated her as a servant. She would always think of her when she had something good to do, so Cai'er also wanted to be good to Luo Yi sincerely.

Therefore, before Du Jingyi could speak, Cai'er came to her rescue.

"When Madam Jiu's chilblains get better, I will prepare some hand gel for you. Soak more and your skin will naturally get better."

After these words came out, Du Jingyi was also a little curious.

"Can you mix gel?"

"Yes, but I have learned from the aunt in the workshop for some time, so I know a little, but I am not that good."

"In that case, the ninth sister-in-law's hands are handed over to you. If you need anything, just go to the warehouse and get it. No matter the price, as long as it is something that the ninth sister-in-law can use, just tell me."

"Thank you, Madam."

During the days that Cai'er served in the mansion, she also knew that Du Jingyi, the mistress of the house, was never a person who said empty words, so she was not polite and began to think about things that might be needed.

However, Luo Yi on the side hurriedly shook her hand and said.

"My hands are for work, not so precious. Cai'er should give the gel to my sister-in-law."

"I don't lack anything, but you, who have worked so hard to take care of the ninth brother, should treat yourself well!" (End of this chapter)
