The quarantine area became empty, and no one in the city was infected with the plague, so the plague was resolved.

Shen Ling finally became idle, and she walked to the tall building and looked at the railing.

I still remember that when I first came here, there was almost no one on the street, and the whole city was lifeless, except for the cry of grief coming from nowhere, there was really no sound at all.

But now, there are people coming and going on the road, the faces of the people are full of peace, there are many stalls on both sides of the street, the sound of selling is endless, and the fragrance of rice wafts into Shen Ling's nose along the smell of unknown places.

"Sister, you're here." A bright young voice came from behind Shen Ling, and then a red and round thing appeared in front of Shen Ling.

"Here, this is the sugar gourd I bought for my sister."

Shen Ling took the sugar gourd and ate one, and the sweet and sour taste spread in her mouth.

She rubbed Zhuqing's head with a smile, "Xiao Zhuqing now knows how to buy things for her sister to please her sister."

Zhu Qing pursed her lips and smiled, her face flushed, and she seemed a little embarrassed.

Shen Ling couldn't help but poke her fingers when she saw it, and the soft and warm touch was very good.

She laughed happily, then pulled out a bamboo tube from her bosom.

"During this time, you have cooperated with me to rub pills and make Gu worms, in order to reward you, my sister gave this to you."

Seeing that Zhu Qing's eyes lit up, he didn't open it to look, but just by his sense of smell, he knew that this was the Gu King that Shen Ling had raised by chance in Yancheng before.

The young man's eyes became brighter and brighter, and after accepting the bamboo tube, Zhu Qing hugged Shen Ling excitedly.

"Thank you, sister!"

Jing Xi came from the stairs at this time, and just happened to see this scene.

He walked over and pulled Zhu Qing's hand away from Shen Ling with an expressionless face.

Zhu Qing frowned and shook off Jing Xi's hand, "What are you doing, sick seedling!"

Jing Ci didn't pay attention to Zhu Qing's call, he stretched out his palm and spread it in front of Shen Ling.

"Where's my gift?"

Shen Ling looked at him with empty, slender fingers and held back the smile on his lips.

She deliberately pretended to be surprised, "You are a national teacher, isn't it your job to help the people deal with the plague? Why do you still want a reward?"

Jing Ci still stubbornly spread his palms, "I want a reward."

"Nope." Shen Ling shook her head.

After hearing this, Zhu Qing took out the Gu worm that Shen Ling gave him and showed it off in front of Jing Xi, "Hahaha, do you see it? This is the Gu King cultivated by my sister herself."

Jing Ci's heart was sour, and he looked at Shen Ling's eyes with some grievances.

Shen Ling pretended not to see it, "It's windy, let's go down."

After leaving from the tall building, Shen Ling went into the house, Jing Ci and Zhu Qing originally wanted to follow, but they were pushed out by her.

The two stood outside the door and looked at each other, Jing Xi looked at the bamboo tube in Zhu Qing's hand, and his heart was sour.

"Ling'er used to buy me fabrics to make clothes, and you're nothing."

Zhu Qing's eyes narrowed, and he mocked, "But my sister also bought me fabric and made clothes."

This sentence hit Jing Ci hard in his heart, and Zhu Qing didn't seem to be enough, so he added, "The fabric used is still the treasure of the town."

Jing Ci was hit hard again, and his chest was stuffy.

In the room, Shen Ling listened to the conversation at the door, and a smile leaked from her lips.

It's not that she didn't prepare things for Jing Ci, it's just that she hasn't done it yet.

Looking at the half-finished bracers on the table, Shen Ling secretly rubbed himself to cheer himself up, it seemed that he was going to speed up his movements, otherwise someone would be jealous and didn't know what to do.

Shen Ling sat down and sewed the bracers quietly.

She sat there all day, until it was dark.

But despite this, Shen Ling did not give up, she lit the candle flame and continued to fight, until the candle flame in Shen Ling's room was extinguished late at night.

The next day, when Shen Ling got up, it was almost noon.

Jing Ci is handling the delivery of his subordinates in the house

came up with information, there was a knock on the door, and then Shen Ling walked in.

She handed the bracers she had made overnight last night to Jing Ci, with a faint expression.

"Here's for you."

Jing Ci took the wrist guard in surprise, and when he saw some messy but fine stitches on the side of the wristband, he knew that it was made by Shen Ling himself.

After all, the wrist guards I bought would not have such a bad embroiderer.

The corners of Jing Xi's mouth curled, "Is this the reward you gave me?"

"Hmm." Shen Ling replied in a low voice, her expression was not shocked, and she couldn't see the anxious appearance when she picked up the lamp to make bracers last night.

Jing Xi happily picked up the bracers, and when he took off the moire bracers on his arms, he replaced them with the bracers sewn by Shen Ling.

Shen Ling asked quietly, "How is it, is it still suitable?"

"What you do, it's all right." Jing Xi raised his head, and his smile was as gentle as the spring breeze in March, just blowing into Shen Ling's heart.

Shen Ling was stunned, her pretty face couldn't help but be a little hot, she secretly sighed, Jing Xi deserves to be the object of pursuit by women all over Kyoto, such a look is really foul.

Coming back to her senses, Shen Ling coughed embarrassedly, "Cough, it's just right, I'm leaving."

Looking at Shen Ling's distant back, Jing Xi's eyes became more gentle.

He didn't have the heart to deal with official business now, thinking of Zhu Qing's appearance in front of him yesterday, he got up and walked towards Zhu Qing, who was talking to the snake in the courtyard.

Seeing Jing Ci coming, Zhu Qing drove the snake away and glanced at Jing Ci impatiently.

"Tsk, sick seedling."

Jing Ci didn't care about this title with him, but just raised his hand to reveal the two sleeves.

"Look, this was made for me by Ling'er herself."

Zhuqing pursed his lips and pretended not to care.

"What's the matter, my sister is kind-hearted, it must be because you asked your sister for it yesterday, and my sister did it for you."

Jing Xi vetoed, "Impossible, this must have been prepared for me by Ling'er early in the morning, otherwise it would never have been possible in one night."

Zhu Qing glared at Jing Xi angrily, and then took out the bamboo tube in his arms.

"Hmph, it's just a bracer, and I still have the poisonous Gu made by my sister."

Jing Xi retorted with a cold face, "Where is a mere insect on my bracers."

"What do you know, this is a Gu King, do you know how many Gu worms and hard work it takes for a Gu King to cultivate?"

Zhu Qing grabbed the bamboo tube and teased the Gu worms inside, "Now that my sister has given me the Gu worms that I have worked so hard to cultivate, it is enough to prove that I am more important than you in her heart."

How could Jing Ci not understand, but he just couldn't see Zhu Qing's show-off appearance.

"Obviously, I'm more important, after all, the poisonous Gu that Ling'er gave you has a lifespan limit, but what she gave me, I can always carry with me."

The two of them just said something like this, comparing their weight in Shen Ling's mind, and even fought in the end, making the chickens and dogs in the courtyard jump.
