Kusuriya no Hitorigoto: Chapter 60 Recap
Previously in the manga, Jinshi asked Lady Gyokuyo to return Maomao back to him temporarily. Lady Gyokuyo is not happy with the idea, and she tries to argue with Jinshi to take some other court lady since they all are extremely competent. Jinshi tells Lady Gyokuyo that he has been invited on a hunt by Shi Shou and the event is quite important. Therefore, it is imperative that Maomao accompanies him to the country of Ri.
After a lengthy discussing, Lady Gyokuyo finally allows Jinshi to take Maomao with him for the hunt. Shi Shou is the consort Rou Ran’s father and a high-ranking official of the court. The entire invitation seemed a little suspicious to Maomao. Shi Shou happens to a member of the Shi clan which rules the Northern Land of Ri. Among the people accompanying Jishin, Gao Shun’s son Basen has been acting as Jishin’s assistant since Gao Shun was invited as a guest.
The party finally reaches their destination is Maomao is impressed by the ornaments decorating the palace. Maomao enters Jishin’s room which seems to be extremely warm. Jishin had been using a cloak even in this heat since Jishin’s face could make ladies faint. Maomao asks Jishin why the doors to the room are closed since it is warm inside and Jishin tells his attendants that he would personally explain her the reason.
Later in the evening, the meal arrives which seems to be wine and soft-shelled tortoise. Jishin refuses to eat the meal but Maomao insists that sending away leftovers would be suspicious. Maomao eats her fill and Jishin asks Basen to eat the rest, who passes out after eating the meal. Jishin tells Maomao to use Basen’s room while he sleeps in her room. Maomao feels happy about the luxurious room and hopes that the hunt goes well.
