When it was almost time, Pei Yuanxiu came over.

He looked very tired, and when he walked into the door of this room, he was reflected by the flickering candle flame of the candlestick in the corner, and his face was heavy and tired, as if it were about to fall.

I was sitting on the edge of the bed, wiping Han Zitong's face with a wet, cold handkerchief, when I looked up and saw him, the movements of my hands stiffened, and he stood at the door, and the moment he saw me, his tired eyes flashed slightly.

The two men faced each other and did not speak.

After being silent for a long time, the attendant who came behind him with a lantern whispered, "Childe?"

He came back to his senses, shook his head slightly, and walked over.

I stood up from the side of the bed to make way for him, but he just walked up to me, glanced at the patient on the bed, and asked softly, "What's going on?"

I said, "It's a little feverish. ”

"What did she do?"

"Nothing was done. ”

“……”

"Maybe it's a heart disease. ”

He glanced at me, I only lowered my eyelids to look at Han Zitong's abnormally red face, and said, "She has too many things in her heart, not only her sister, but also you." ”

His throat choked slightly, as if something made him feel like he was stuck in his throat and couldn't swallow it, and he also looked down at Han Zitong and said dumbly: "What about you?"

My eyelashes fluttered slightly.

But I didn't speak.

Because at this moment, the patient on the bed suddenly frowned, as if she had experienced something that made her uneasy and anxious in a coma, I watched her shoulders simmer slightly, the whole person was twitching, and two words floated out of the dry lips: "Yuan Xiu ......"

Pei Yuanxiu was stunned and looked down at her.

Han Zitong's eyelids trembled, as if he wanted to open them, but he couldn't stand the stimulation of the light, and after a while, tears had condensed in the corners of his eyes, slowly sliding down. Her voice was choked, but she still just muttered unconsciously, "Yuan Xiu...... Yuan Xiu ......"

Pei Yuanxiu's brows were furrowed, and when he looked down at her, his eyes were full of reluctance and guilt.

I sighed lightly, and then said, "The doctor has already come to see her and boiled medicine, but she couldn't drink it no matter how much she fed her just now, and she vomited half of it." You're here just in time, you try it. ”

As I spoke, I picked up the decoction on the other table, which had cooled a little, and handed it to him.

He glanced at the cloudy potion, then at me.

I said, "I'm tired and need to rest." ”

After saying that, he turned around and walked out.

At this time, it was so quiet outside that only the sound of the wind remained, I had already washed up before, at this time I went out to wash my hands, and then lay down at the head of the bed, and after a while, my eyelids were heavy for a while, and I was about to fall asleep with the sound of the bamboo leaves outside the window.

But at this moment, I dimly saw a figure walking to the bedside.

I woke up with a stirring and opened my eyes.

Pei Yuanxiu was standing on the edge of the bed, looking down at me.

I frowned, and subconsciously wanted to sit up, but as soon as I made a move, he leaned down and reached out and pressed my shoulder, pressed me back to the bed with a slight force, and said softly: "Aren't you tired? Don't get up, sleep well." ”

I looked at him, my shoulders sank slightly out of his hand, and said, "What are you going to do?"

"I'm just looking at you. ”

"Now, have you seen it?"

There seemed to be pain in his eyes: "You just like that, don't want to see me?"

I lowered my eyelids: "I just want to rest." ”

“……”

He closed his lips and could feel the breath that was close at hand getting cooler little by little, but when I looked up, he still didn't mean to leave, still standing by the bed, staring down at me.

This time, my tone was a little firmer: "I'm going to rest." ”

“……”

This time, he finally didn't say anything, slowly turned around, and walked out.

The door was shut, and the sound of his footsteps and the sound of the night wind were cut off.

However, I didn't lie down and fall asleep as peacefully as before, but woke up, sat at the head of the bed and was stunned for a while, I got out of bed and went to Han Zitong's room with a dress, and reached out to touch her forehead, which was not so hot than before, probably that bowl of medicine really worked, and people who fell asleep like this were a lot more stable.

I breathed a sigh of relief, but my heart was still heavy.

Although Pei Yuanxiu didn't say anything, he came back so late today, he must have gone to talk to some important people about some important things, so he would be delayed until now, and at the moment, the important things I can think of are none other than his marriage to Ao Jiayu, and the other is the big event on the seventh day of the first month of November.

Without Han Zitong's helper, Han Ruoshi is not familiar with Yiqiē, and now he must be the most headache and the hardest.

But if I'm not mistaken, the more at this time, the more Han Ruoshi will intervene.

After all, as she said herself, she is the mistress of this family, whether it is for Pei Yuanxiu to see, or for the new sister to get off the horse, she has to put on a stand as the housewife.

At this time, of course, Han Zitong can't be allowed any chance to interfere.

Early the next morning, the doctor came again, saw the empty bowl, and asked, "Have you drunk all the medicine?"

I laughed and said, "I've drunk them all." ”

After checking the pulse, the doctor stroked his beard and frowned slightly: "It is said that after drinking the medicine, it should be fine." ”

I said, "Miss Zitong doesn't look bad now." ”

"It's not bad, but it's ...... It's like you've only drunk half of it. He hesitated again, and I smiled faintly on the side: "Miss Zitong's illness was originally a heart disease, and heart disease is difficult to treat with medicine." ”

When the doctor heard what I said, he thought so, and Xiao Qian sighed lightly as she stood next to her. What happened two days ago has already spread all over this mansion, and Han Zitong's heart and heart disease are no longer her secrets, so the doctor didn't say anything anymore, only said that he would prescribe two more doses of medicine and send them, so that we could take care of Han Zitong and take medicine.

Originally, this matter fell on Xiao Qian, but as soon as the medicine was taken out to decoction, someone outside came in to spread the word, asking Xiao Qian to go out and listen to Han Ruoshi's side.

Xiao Qian immediately frowned: "But the second miss is still sick." ”

The one who came to pass the word was the maid who had been following Han Ruoshi and took the lead in making trouble at the gate of the inner courtyard that day, and when she heard her words, she immediately said coldly: "I don't care about this, but who should be listened to in this mansion and who should not be listened to, Xiaoqian, you have to be careful." ”

Xiao Qian bit her lower lip suddenly.

The maid said, "Madame is the lady, she is the mistress of this house." ”

As he spoke, he glanced at me out of the corner of his eye, intentionally or unintentionally.

I sat at the head of Han Zitong's bed, silent.

The maid said in a strange way: "Besides, your young lady is not a serious illness, anyway, the son has already come to see it last night, and he can just lie down, and if it goes on like this, will all the people in the house have to come and see it?"

“……”

"Now everyone is busy with the big things of the son, let you go out to listen to the errand, because you have been following your young lady before, and the personnel inside and outside are also clear, and now follow the lady, this is the lady can afford you. ”

“……”

"Don't you know what's wrong. ”

“……”

Xiao Qian hesitated for a long time, and finally sighed: "Okay." ”

The maid sneered, turned and walked out on her toes.

Xiao Qian still couldn't bear it in her heart, so she had already followed her to the door, and turned back to me and said, "Miss Yan, the medicine for the second miss will be delivered later, please take care of her and eat it, it's good early." ”

I smiled and agreed, "Okay." ”

They walked out, even the two girls who came in to look at them, they all retreated, and after a while, the kitchen brought the decoction in, I held it in my hand, looking at the turbid medicinal soup, the fishy and bitter taste kept drilling into my nose, my smile slowly converged, and I looked back at Han Zitong, who was still asleep on the bed, looking particularly haggard, and sighed softly: "It seems that your illness is good for yourself and everyone." ”

“……”

"You, it's better not to get involved. ”

As I spoke, I walked to the window and poured most of the bowl of medicine into the flower bed under the windowsill.

|

Although he took less medicine, Han Zitong's condition was still much better than before, after all, he was still young, and his body had not suffered any damage, but he had never woken up, which is probably what I said before, and his heart disease has not been solved.

I watched her all morning, and she was a little bored, so I took a book and moved it to the window to read it.

I had just looked at the two lines when there was another sound of footsteps outside.

I closed the book and looked at the door with interest.

In the past two days, the inner courtyard has been lively, and I should have greeted the two girls, Madame, if they are doing serious things, they don't have to be stopped, but they all have to follow in, which can be regarded as a deterrent and a protection for us.

Sure enough, after a while, I saw Xiao Qian running in in a hurry.

As soon as she came in, she walked to Han Zitong's bedside: "Miss!"

I sat down on a chair by the window and said softly, "I just drank the medicine for a while, and now it doesn't burn much, don't worry." ”

Xiao Qian reached out and tested the temperature of her forehead, and as I said, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

I said, "Why did you come in again?"

Xiao Qian turned around at this time, and lowered her voice with a sad face: "Madam is here." ”

"Oh?"

I raised my eyebrows, and as soon as I turned my head, I saw the maid who came in in the morning and called her out walked in, glanced at Han Zitong on the bed, and said lukewarmly to me: "Miss Yan, Madam is here." ”

“……”

Meaning I'm going out to meet her.

I smiled, and without arguing, I put the book on the windowsill, got up and walked out.

Walking outside, I saw Han Ruoshi sitting at the table, probably there were too many things to worry about in the past two days, and the few folds in the center of the eyebrows were faintly noticeable even when there were no frowns.

As soon as she heard my footsteps, she immediately turned to look at me.

I smiled and said, "I don't know what happened when Madame came to me?"
