Chu Qingzhi had just placed the twins on the bed when Chu Qingning arrived.

Seeing Zhang Yuyan, the mother, covered in blood, Chu Qingning felt scared and did not dare to ccloser.

Chu Qingzhi picked up one of the babies to clean them, “Fourth sister, do you think childbirth is scary?”

Chu Qingning honestly nodded, “It is. 1 was afraid to even look when I first cin.”

“Do you want to help them?” asked Chu Qingzhi. Witnessing Zhang Yuyan’s childbirth had strengthened her resolve to train Chu Qingning in gynecology this era desperately needed female doctors.

Chu Qingning sensed the underlying implication, “Fifth sister, what do you mean?”

After handing the baby over to another wet nurse, Chu Qingzhi shared her thoughts in detail with Chu Qingning, “What do you think, Fourth Sister?”

After listening, Chu Qingning fell into deep thought. She had never considered this path before, and it seemed quite sudden.

Chu Qingzhi suggested, “There’s no rush, Fourth Sister. Take your tto think about it. Let’s go outside for now.”

Chu Qingning nodded, “Okay.”

As they exited, the Minister of Rites immediately greeted Chu Qingzhi with a bow, “Thank you, Miss Qingzhi, for saving my grandchildren. I will reward you handsomely.”

Everyone knew how difficult it was to carry twins to term. If they had lost the twins, it would have been an eternal regret for the whole family.

“You’re too kind, Minister,” Chu Qingzhi advised, “During this time, have the young master spend more twith the young madam. A happy mood will help her recover better. Pay attention to her diet too, and ensure she eats foods that are good for wound recovery and replenishing energy.”

Unable to remember everything, the Minister asked, “Could Miss Qingzhi write it down?”

“Of course.” Chu Qingzhi went to the study to write down postnatal care instructions, “Fourth Sister, would you like to see it?”

Chu Qingning thought for a moment, then took the paper to read carefully, developing a bit of interest, “Fifth Sister, I’ll copy this down and study it more closely.”

“Okay.”

While Chu Qingning was copying the instructions, Zhang Yuyan’s personal maid approached Chu Qingzhi, “Miss Qingzhi, the young madam would like to see you.”

Chu Qingning said, “Fifth Sister, go ahead.”

Chu Qingzhi replied, “Let’s go.”

In Zhang Yuyan’s room, Chu Qingzhi first checked on the twins and then spoke with Zhang Yuyan, “Please speak, young madam.”

Zhang Yuyan gestured for everyone to leave the room, then lifted her clothes to reveal her stomach covered in stretch marks, “Miss Qingzhi, can you helprecover from these marks?”

She added, “A friend of mine was coldly treated by her husband after giving birth because of these marks, and she has been in tears ever since. Sometimes she even thinks of ending her life.”

Chu Qingzhi responded, “I can prepare an ointment to remove these marks, but it will require many expensive medicinal ingredients. Are you willing to pay for it?”

Zhang Yuyan eagerly said, “As long as it can remove these marks, we are willing to pay any price.”

Chu Qingzhi pondered, “Have your maid cto my mansion the day after tomorrow to collect it.”

Zhang Yuyan was overjoyed, “Thankyou, Miss Qingzhi.”

About an hour later, Chu Qingzhi and Chu Qingning left the Minister’s mansion.

“Where are we going now, Fifth Sister?”

“I’m going to the medical hall to buy herbs.”

“Is someone sick?”

“The young madam wants an ointment to remove her stretch marks. I’ll go buy the herbs and prepare it. If you want to learn, I can teach you. This can also be considered a part of gynecological treatment.”

Chu Qingning did not hesitate. “Fifth Sister, I want to learn.”

“Let’s go.”

At the Ning Residence.

Xia Mei entered the room and respectfully said, “Young Madam, Miss Ning Shuangshuang is here to see you.”

At the mention of Ning Shuangshuang’s name, Chu Qingyue recalled the scene where Ning Shuangshuang mocked her, and she couldn’t help feeling anxious. She really didn’t want to meet Ning Shuangshuang.

“Did she say why she’s here?”

Xia Mei shook her head, “She didn’t say.”

Even though Ning Shuangshuang had mocked her, she was Ning Yuting’s cousin. Creating an ugly scene would only make things difficult for Yuting. Chu Qingyue said, “Let her in.”

“Yes, Young Madam,” Xia Mei bowed and left.

Soon, Ning Shuangshuang entered the room with Xia Mei. She greeted Chu Qingyue with a smile and an air of closeness, “Big Cousin-in-law.”

Chu Qingyue sat on the edge of the bed, her eyes filled with confusion. Ning Shuangshuang’s attitude was like that of a completely different person.

“Please, have a seat.”

Ning Shuangshuang thought to herself that if it weren’t for the fear of Ning Yuting cutting off business ties between their families, she wouldn’t be apologizing to a country girl.

However, she didn’t let her thoughts show and continued smiling, “Big Cousin-in-law, are you adjusting well?”

Chu Qingyue remained guarded, “If you have something to say, just say it.”

Ning Shuangshuang appeared sincere, “I cto apologize. What happened before was my fault. Please don’t take it to heart.”

Chu Qingyue thought to herself that Ning Shuangshuang clearly looked down on her, and her sudden apology seemed suspicious.

She decided to play along to see Ning Shuangshuang’s true intentions, “I’ve already forgotten about those things, they’re not on my mind. But your sudden apology is a bit surprising.”

Ning Shuangshuang was eager to get past this, “Cousin-in-law, you don’t have to think too much about it. I was immature before. Please just see it asbeing young and impulsive, and don’t hold it against me.”

The more Ning Shuangshuang tried to cover up, the more suspicious Chu Qingyue became, “Does Yuting know about your visit?”

“He doesn’t. But there’s no need to inform my cousin about this, right? You wouldn’t want to trouble him with these trivial matters, would you?”

She actually wanted Chu Qingyue to tell Ning Yuting about her apology, hoping that would lead to his forgiveness.

“Of course not. But if you don’t want Yuting to know you’re here, you should leave now. He’s about to cback.”

“Oh, then I’ll leave right away. Big Cousin-in-law, you’re not angry with me, are you?”

“I won’t take it to heart, don’t worry.”

“Thank you, Big Cousin-in-law. 1’11 be going then.”

“Mhm.” Chu Qingyue watched Ning Shuangshuang leave, thinking that the girls in this large house were so adaptable. Even though they clearly didn’t like her, they could still smile and apologize. It looked like she still had a lot to learn.

Not long after Ning Shuangshuang left, Ning Yuting indeed returned.

He cinto the room and embraced Chu Qingyue, giving her a kiss, “I’ve taken care of the business matters. Now I can focus on spending twith you.”

Chu Qingyue smiled gently, “It’s almost noon. Shall I cook for you?” With that, she stood up.

Ning Yuting pulled Chu Qingyue onto his lap, “You don’t need to cook. Let the maids do it. You’re not feeling well, just rest.”

Chu Qingyue blushed at his words and whispered, “I can still cook..”
