Lin Shuo turned back only after sending Yun Jiao through the side gate of the Duke Mansion.
Yun Jiao returned to her room, locked the door, and entered the medicine storeroom to find all the ingredients needed to prepare medicine for Madam Hou.
She ground some of them with a powder machine in the storeroom.
For those needing mortar grinding, she took them out and ground them in her room.
Before long, a maid came in, curious and asked, "Miss, what are you doing?"
Yun Jiao applied force to the grinding, without lifting her head, "Making medicine."
The maid's eyes twinkled, "Miss must be tired, why not let me do it?"
After all, this task doesn't require much skill, just grinding the medicine into powder. Yun Jiao nodded, "You do it."
She shook her hand, "By the way, I still don't know your name?"
The maid smiled, "I'm Xing Yu. If you have anything you need, just ask me."
While grinding, she curiously asked, "What is this medicinal powder for?"
