Su Qing widened her eyes slightly and lowered her voice, "Yao'er, is there a problem with that Octadic Treasure Tofu?"

"Add in a little bit of the powder ground by the horse, and the amount is relatively small. There won't be much problem with today's meal."

Su Qing's heart turned cold, "What if I eat for too long?"

"A little too much will give you a headache, chest tightness, and nausea. It's very similar to the symptoms of seasickness when you're in a boat. If the amount were a little too much, it's possible that you would have lost your life."

"Yao'er, the Su Clan plans on making a move now?" Su Qing's voice trembled. It was unknown if it was out of fear or anger.

Mu Yunyao held her hand, "Mother, don't worry. The Su Family isn't stupid to this extent. I think some people must have committed some kind of crime to think of such a method."

"Yao'er might have guessed who it was?" Su Qing was filled with worry.

"The weather is good today. I'll help mother take a walk outside, just in time to see who can't sit still."

"Alright." They had already entered the river, the river surface was wide and smooth, the two sides of the river were extremely busy, one could see the buildings on the two sides of the river, and occasionally, one could hear the clanging of horns and the singing of fish.

However, Su Qing didn't have the mood to admire the scenery. Her chilled hand grabbed onto Mu Yunyao tightly.

Mu Yunyao held onto Su Qing's arm, gesturing for her to look towards the horizon. "Mother, look. The sunset in the horizon is very beautiful."

In the distance, it was as if the river surface had been dyed red by the setting sun, and some flames seemed to be burning below the surface of the water. Occasionally, birds would fly across the sky, as if they were soaring between the water and the fire.

Mu Yunyao narrowed her eyes. When she heard the sound of movement behind her, she couldn't help but turn her head and see Senior Servant Liu walking up from the lower level. Senior Servant Liu was feeling pleased with herself, she had previously heard someone say that Su Qing loved to eat tofu, but Mu Yunyao was especially picky about it. She had never touched any of these things, and the best part about the ingredients was the tofu, so as long as Su Qing didn't feel comfortable eating it, she could find an excuse to say it.

Since the medicinal herbs on the boat were insufficient, he went ashore to help Su Qing recuperate. Although Su Qing was the daughter of the madame, her daughter had been living in the outside world for so many years and had married a peasant family. Since the Su family had taken her back because of their blood ties with her, how could they take it seriously? She only used some tricks and only needed to recuperate a little bit …

Within a few days, he was unable to find any clues.

Senior Servant Liu raised her head, full of smiles, and looked directly into Mu Yunyao's smiling eyes. Her heart couldn't help but tremble, those eyes were black and white, the depths of her pupils reflected the sunset, as though a flame had risen. In the blink of an eye, it had penetrated the hearts of the people.

"Senior Servant Liu, there's no need to be so polite. Have you eaten already?"

"In reply to Miss, I've already used it."

"Mn, I heard Ying Xue say that I like tofu very much, so I prepared some on the boat. Coincidentally, my mother also likes tofu very much."

Senior Servant Liu's heart couldn't stop beating wildly, the smile on her face was clearly stiff. "I didn't expect Madam to like it too. If I had known earlier, I would have had more servants preparing."

Su Qing was very bewildered in her heart. When she heard Senior Servant Liu's words, she did not open her mouth, but only smiled and did not say anything.

Mu Yunyao smiled. "I can see that Senior Servant's expression isn't good, but what's wrong with it?"

"Maybe it's because I've been on the boat for a long time, so I feel a little uncomfortable."

"Then mama should hurry back and rest. Didn't you say there's a doctor accompanying you?" I'll tell someone to get a doctor to look after it for you. "

"No …" "There's no need, it's just a small ailment. I'll be fine after I sleep. This servant thanks Miss for your concern." "My body isn't feeling well, but I can't afford to be careless. It just so happens that my mother has a headache, so she called the doctor to take a look as well." Just as they were talking, Mu Yunyao saw Ying Xue walking over and immediately ordered, "Ying Xue, aren't there any doctors accompanying you? My mother and Senior Servant Liu are both feeling a little uncomfortable.

Please come up and take a look at them. "

"Yes, miss."

He was in his forties and his back was slightly bent. When he saw Su Qing and Mu Yunyao, he immediately bowed and greeted them. He had a flattering smile on his face as he said, "This little one is called Brother He. Greetings Madam and Miss."

Mu Yunyao had been carefully observing Senior Servant Liu's expression. When she saw him, she became even more distracted, and the coldness in her heart increased a bit, "Doctor He, my mother has a headache today. I don't know why, so I have to trouble you to take a look."

"Alright."

Su Qing covered her wrist with a handkerchief. After she had finished her pulse, he continued to smile, "Madam, you have been on the boat for a long time, which resulted in you being on fire and having a bad night's rest. That's why you have a headache, and will be fine after taking some medicine to recuperate for a few days."

Mu Yunyao nodded her head, "I'm really worried in my heart. If I don't recuperate in time, will I leave behind the root of my illness?"

"The medicinal ingredients on the ship are incomplete, but there are a few that are in need of recuperation. This disease can be very serious or very small. If the recuperation is not complete, it will indeed be troublesome …"

"Is that so … Oh yeah, Senior Servant Liu isn't feeling too well either. Just now, she looked especially unsightly, so Doctor He helped her take a look. "

"Yes." Brother He went forward and took Senior Servant Liu's pulse. He said it was roughly the same, but mostly because he had been on the boat for a long time, that made him uncomfortable. Mu Yunyao nodded and turned to Su Qing, "Mother, why don't we let the boat approach the shore and rest for a couple of days? We can buy all the medicinal ingredients we need to help you recuperate?" While she was speaking, she had been looking at Senior Servant Liu from the corner of her eyes. When she saw the happiness flash across her eyes, her heart instantly turned cold …

At the extreme point.

Su Qing shook her head, "Never mind, it's nothing serious. Didn't I tell the doctor earlier? I'm just feeling a little uncomfortable. Besides, we're only a few days away from the capital. It'll be over after a while."

"Alright, then I'll help mother rest."

Senior Servant Liu was stupefied. Her expression darkened as she followed Doctor He out. She didn't expect that even after Su Qing was sick, she still didn't want the boat to land. What should she do now?

Mu Yunyao supported Su Qing onto the bed and sent Ying Xue and the others out with an excuse.

When there was only the two of them left in the room, Su Qing hurriedly sat up, "Yao'er, do you suspect that Senior Servant Liu?"

"Mother also noticed that something was wrong?"

"I didn't see it clearly, but in the past, Senior Servant Liu's expression had always been a bit arrogant. Although she appeared respectful on the surface, she always made people feel like she was arrogant. Today, however, she seems a bit unusual."

Mu Yunyao coldly smiled, "Whether it's her or not, we'll see soon enough." This time, Senior Servant Liu didn't have her wishful thinking, so she would definitely think of another solution. She only had to wait and see. Senior Servant Liu returned to her room and anxiously paced back and forth. She couldn't help but carefully ponder over Mu Yunyao's expression just now. When she first bumped into Mu Yunyao and heard her mention the Eight Treasures Tofu, she panicked. At that time, she had thought that the other party had sensed something. However, now that she thought about it …

It didn't seem like it. If she really did find out that she had done something to the dish, how could she let him go so easily? The more she thought about it, the more suspicious she felt. The amount of medicine she had in the Octadic Treasure Tofu was very small, so Su Qing's discomfort was not that bad. People who grew up in the countryside loved to fuss about it.

They approached the shore. She had to think of another way …
