Chapter 68: A Helping Hand
Gao Lian did not break his promise, and the next day, a man with a very tall figure and a white robe really appeared in the lotus garden, with black hair casually draped over his shoulders, and a gourd in his hand, obviously dressed in white, but it gave people a feeling of going up the mountain to rob, when Lin suddenly approached him gently, Duan Qingyu turned around, looked her up and down, and muttered with slightly raised eyes: "Oh, it turns out that you are the woman Ah Lian has put in his heart!" But it doesn't look good, huh? ”
Lin suddenly didn't know why he had to listen to his ridicule, and he was also looking at him, his delicate face was as thin as the willow eyebrows, the rosy lips and cherry mouth, from a distance, it really looked like a stunner, hey, it was a pity that it grew on a man's face.
Duan Qingyu had never seen a woman staring at her directly, and she had to shake her head from time to time, and suddenly said in her heart: "Miss Lin, don't you think it's very rude to stare at people like this?" ”
Lin Ran touched her head embarrassedly, why can't she always get rid of the problem of liking beautiful things, but looking at him like this, he must be a person who is not easy to get along with, as long as he thinks that his brother's life is still in his hand, he suppressed his tone and quickly apologized: "It's the little girl who is rude, I don't know the name of the divine doctor?" ”
Count you as acquaintances! Duan Qingyu snorted coldly in his nose: "The contemptible surname is Duan." ”
As soon as the words fell, Lin Ranran pulled him into the house without saying a word, and Duan Qingyu's cold voice came: "I have a habit of cleanliness!" ”
As soon as Lin suddenly heard his words, he quickly let go of his hand and jumped a few steps away.
Duan Qingyu glanced at her angrily, shook his hand and walked forward.
As soon as she walked into the house, the eldest lady who had been taking care of Xiao Ran saw that it was a stranger, and hurriedly stood up: "Suddenly, this is ......"
"He is the Duan Divine Doctor who came to save Xiao Ran."
"Really?" The eldest lady stepped forward with tears on her face, wanting to hold Duan Qingyu's hand, but he avoided it without a trace, and a trace of embarrassment crossed the eldest lady's eyes, and she said, "Miss Duan, please save my family Xiao Ran." ”
Duan Qingyu was originally upset when she saw the woman's family crying, but now when she heard the eldest lady call him a girl, she raised her eyebrows, and she was about to have a seizure right away, but Lin suddenly stepped forward and said, "Mother, let's let Duan Gongzi treat Xiao Ran first." ”
The eldest lady wanted to say something, but Lin Ran pulled aside and whispered: "Mother, don't say it, it's too wrong to say more, if you make him unhappy, it will be troublesome." ”
As soon as the eldest lady heard her daughter say this, she quickly silenced her, and Duan Qingyu glanced at the people in the room obliquely and said, "Except for Miss Lin to stay, everyone else should go out!" ”
After seeing Duan Qingyu's strange temper, the eldest lady beckoned her subordinates to walk out of the room together, and only left after passing by Lin Ranran's side to look at her.
The people in the room were gone, and it suddenly quieted down, Lin suddenly watched silently as Duan Qingyu applied needles to the sleeping Xiao Ran, and gently helped him up to perform exercises for him, his movements were precise and fast, which showed that his internal strength was profound.
Pulling out the needle and putting away the airflow, Duan Qingyu said to Lin Xiaoran on the bed with an expressionless face: "This kid has a big life, his lungs are swollen, and he can still live until now, if I am one step late, I am afraid that this kid will have already entered the coffin." ”
Lin Ran's temples jumped, this miracle doctor invited by Gao Lian was really enough to be paralyzed.
"Well, he can't die." Duan Qingyu glanced sideways at Lin Xuanran, noticed her gaze, and said indifferently, "You can let them in!" ”
When Lin suddenly heard this, he said to the eldest lady who was guarding the door: "Mother, come in, Doctor Duan said that my brother can't die." ”
When the eldest lady heard her daughter's words, her heart finally fell, she cried with joy with a handkerchief, walked into the house and thanked Duan Qingyu again and again.
Duan Qingyu just raised his eyebrows lightly, looked at Lin and said: "Don't be too happy, I'm just hanging on to his life now, it's not difficult to cure him from dying, but it's not easy to cure him, and he will still have to die without the last medicine." ”
As soon as the eldest lady heard that Lin Xiaoran was alive and about to die, her tears couldn't be suppressed, and Lin suddenly said when she saw this: "Is the last medicine Hongyao?" ”
Duan Qingyu nodded indifferently: "Yes, let me tell you the truth, I'm just a doctor who treats diseases, not an immortal?" Even if I can suppress it now and prevent him from getting sick, I can't control the further deterioration of his condition. ”
Hearing Duan Qingyu's words, the eldest lady looked at Lin Ranran with a little more resentment, if she had agreed to Lin Qisheng's marriage, maybe Xiao Ran would have been saved, thinking of this, she suddenly knelt down towards Lin Ran: "Suddenly, please save Xiao Ran!" ”
A hint of mockery flashed in Lin Ranran's eyes: "Mother, it's useless for you to beg me, Hong Yao is a precious medicinal material that even the Jin Dynasty's medicinal herb shop doesn't have." ”
"If you had agreed to your father's request, Xiao Ran wouldn't, no! You see, now even Dr. Duan says that he lacks that medicine. The eldest lady is now carried away by reason, and she doesn't believe what Lin Ranran said at all.
Lin suddenly looked at the eldest lady's unrelenting expression, and a burst of boredom suddenly rose in his heart, and he said coldly at the moment: "Mother, although I am a daughter, I don't owe you anything, you will only make me look down on you and make Dr. Duan look down on me." ”
Duan Qingyu was stunned, but soon recovered his expression, raised his eyebrows and said: "The third lady is right, Hongyao is a kind of precious medicinal material, which cannot be bought in ordinary medicinal material stores, unless it is a relative of the emperor, if the eldest lady knows the people there, maybe there will be a glimmer of hope, but Shangshu Mansion does not have such a big face." He raised his eyebrows and eyes, with a faint mockery, and the implication of his words was very simple, that is, if the eldest lady had the ability, she would beg the one sitting on the dragon chair, and begged her daughter to sell herself.
"I don't remember my father knowing any of the emperor's relatives." Lin suddenly interjected coldly, and the eldest lady's face suddenly changed greatly, and she was shocked to realize that she had fallen for Lin Qisheng.
Lin Ran and Duan Qingyu glanced at each other, and couldn't help but sigh in their hearts, this eldest lady is really not ordinary eccentric and brainless.
"This, this ......" The eldest lady trembled her lips, and squeezed out a sentence with great difficulty: "Suddenly, you must think of a way, Xiao Ran is your only younger brother." ”
"Xiao Ran is my younger brother, even if you don't say it to my mother, I will save it, but there is one thing you must understand, my grandmother will be in charge of my future marriage, mother, you can rest assured and take good care of your younger brother." The eldest lady was said by Lin Ran for a while, and she couldn't refute it, Duan Yuqing saw that the show was almost over, and she got up and was about to leave.
Lin suddenly bent the corners of his mouth and followed him off.
The two of them didn't speak along the way, and finally walked to the door, and Duan Qingyu slowly spoke: "Are you going to pick Hongyao by yourself?" ”
"Yes." Lin Yuran was not surprised how he would know that since the road of the emperor's relatives and relatives could not be followed, he could only pick it up by himself with courage.
Duan Qingyu looked at her with disgust, and said with disgust: "You little arms and legs, it is estimated that you will die before you get there, I think it is better to find a flower messenger." ”
"Do you have a good proposal?" Lin asked with a smile on the corner of his mouth.
Duan Qingyu shrugged his shoulders, rolled his eyes, thought of his friend, and said extremely unconscionablely: "It's not easy to find someone, I have a good candidate in front of me." ”
"Who?" Lin suddenly raised his eyebrows with interest and asked.
"O Prince Jane! He is the god of the girls, up to the fifty-year-old aunt, down to the three-year-old child, everyone loves him, and the flowers bloom, he can be described as a peerless beautiful man who kills all ages! ”
Lin Ranran's eyelids jumped, and she suddenly felt that this cold-faced miracle doctor was actually a neurotic pretending to be paralyzed, she didn't bother to pay attention to him, and said lightly: Thank you Gongzi for mentioning something, and then turned around and left.
When Duan Qingyu saw her leaving, her peach blossom eyes widened, and she pointed at Lin Ranran's back and said, "You, you, I was kind enough to help you, and it was so unreasonable to cross the river and tear down the bridge." ”
In the end, he still hummed and shook his sleeves: "Since I refuse to send the Buddha to the west, I will go by myself." ”
As soon as Gao Lian returned home from the palace, someone came to report: "It is said that Duan Gongzi has been waiting for a long time." ”
Gao Lian took off his coat and asked lightly, "Didn't Qingyu already go to see Lin Xiaoran?" ”
"Back to the prince, Duan Gongzi has finished reading it, and he is waiting in the side hall."
"Hmm." Gao Lian frowned, and walked quickly to the side hall, according to the gossip of his friend, it is estimated that he will stay there for a long time before he comes over, how did he change sex today?
Duan Qingyu had already finished drinking two cups of tea in the side hall, and finally waited for Gao Lian, who had come belatedly.
"Brother, you're finally here." Duan Qingyu raised his eyebrows and said, "Do you want to know first-hand information?" ”
"Tell me, what the hell is going on? How is Lin Xiaoran's illness? Gao Lian asked.
At the mention of Lin Xiaoran's condition, Duan Qingyu's face became serious: "I took his pulse, there are two air currents colliding with each other, and the breath is very disordered, I temporarily used acupuncture to suppress these two air currents, but there is no red Yao, I'm afraid it is still ......" Before he finished speaking, Gao Lian already understood what he meant, and couldn't help frowning, "I heard that there is a red Yao tree on the queen's side." ”
Duan Qingyu's eyes suddenly widened, and he reprimanded in dissatisfaction: "Are you crazy? You're not related to that woman anymore, and I'm not going to watch you jump into the fire pit. ”
"Don't worry, I'm measured." Gao Lian patted him on the shoulder comfortingly, but Duan Qingyu snorted coldly, that woman is not a fuel-efficient lamp, she is already a married woman, but she still wants to spy on his friends, last time she had to give a jade chess piece shamelessly, and engraved her seal, he saw that this woman must be crazy for a man!
"The queen is the depth of the city at first glance, and the emperor is a suspicious person by nature, in case the two of you really have anything, this is a crime of deception!" Duan Qingyu compared a head-killing action, the emperor's relatives are so cold-blooded, what about his nephew, he did something unusual, and he was not executed the same, which is why he likes to be at ease and live alone, and the life of deceit is too tiring for him.
"You don't really feel compassion for that young lady in the Lin Mansion, do you?" Duan Qingyu quietly glanced at his friend, Gao Lian was silent, he didn't know when Lin Ran occupied such an important position in his heart, he thought she was just a gangster who wanted to get rich, but later accidentally found out that she was the little gangster, until he participated in that birthday banquet, he finally understood why she valued money so much, why she had maturity and sensitivity that did not match her age, a cowardly mother and a disabled brother could not help but let her carry the burden on her shoulder, Watching her survive on thin ice step by step, he finally understood that he had always had a prejudice against her, even if his mother asked him to take good care of Lin Xuanran's family before she died, he had been cold from the beginning to the end, but all this was broken when he saw her again.
Duan Qingyu saw that he was silent, and sighed softly and said, "I advise you not to go to the palace to suffer this crime, I don't think that person will accept your affection." ”
"Why?"
"Should I say that Lin is wise and foolish, or brave and unscrupulous? She actually wants to pick Hongyao alone? That place was full of miasma and trapping, and she went to see that she was going to die. Duan Qingyu thought of Lin Ranran's rejection of his proposal, and couldn't help but say indignantly: "Then I recommended you, it's a pity that she didn't agree." ”
"So what?" Gao Lian's fluttering words made Duan Qingyu almost jump, "I'm for your good, since you care so much about that young lady, and you even want to go to the palace to ask for Hong Yao for her, why don't you accompany her to the border of the Jin Dynasty?" ”
Gao Lian shook his head and said: "She seems to be soft and weak, but she is a very stubborn person, if she wants to do one thing, ten cows can't pull it back?" ”
"W-what can I do about this?"
"And I know she doesn't really like me." Gao Lian said lightly, "If it weren't for her brother's business, I guess she wouldn't have looked at me more." ”
Duan Qingyu's eyes widened in surprise: "Then you still want to help her?" ”
"Help, why don't you help, whether she likes me or not is one thing, I help her is another thing, it's not a contradiction, but this girl is very smart." Gao Lian replied lightly, as far as he knew, the queen was not the only one who had Hongyao, and if Lin suddenly refused to accept his wishes, he would have to find another way.
"Brother!" At this moment, a slender figure appeared at the door, and the county lord of Yaoling walked in in a light blue gold silk white pattern epiphany rain silk brocade skirt with a lily bun and a generous manner, seeing Duan Qingyu, his eyes suddenly released brilliance, and he stepped forward and saluted in shame: "Brother Duan is also here!" ”
"Ming'er is really getting more and more energetic." Duan Qingyu praised without hesitation, "Ah Lian, this narcissus in your family has grown up, but there are many people who covet it!" ”
Gao Ming's face became more and more red, and he secretly glanced at Duan Qingyu, and lowered his head again.
Gao Lian glanced at his sister without a trace, and said with a smile: "Is there something wrong?" ”
Gao Ming raised a smile and said, "It's for a flower banquet in a few days, brother, how about you look at these famous posts I prepared?" ”
Gao Lian was not very interested in this kind of banquet held by the girl's family, and was just about to say a few perfunctory words casually, when he suddenly thought of something and asked, "Which female relatives are participating this time?" ”
Hey, usually my brother doesn't take this kind of thing to heart, but today, Gao Ming doesn't doubt him, and he is so well-behaved that he reads all the names of his daughters.
"Tang Zhiru?" Duan Qingyu suddenly interjected and said, "Isn't it the crown princess?" ”
"Brother Duan, is there any problem?" Gao Ming asked curiously, not knowing what he meant by asking this question.
Duan Qingyu glanced at Gao Lian and said, "As far as I know, the crown princess seems to have Hong Yao on her hands, and this girl is kind and humble, and it is more beneficial to her, I think it is safer to take this path." Gao Ming looked at his brother on the left and Duan Qingyu on the right, not knowing what dumb riddles the two were playing.
Hearing his friend say this, Gao Lian immediately understood what he meant, and was silent for a moment and said, "I heard that the third lady of Lin Shangshu's Mansion has both literary talents and knowledge, and what does my sister think." Gao Ming frowned, although she also invited the second miss of Lin Shangshu's mansion this time, but this third lady made her a little lonely, although she had heard of this young lady's name, but this young lady almost did not show up, so she was always very curious, and now her brother also said this, which made her originally a little hesitant settle down, and without saying a word, she brought a brush and added Lin Xuanran's name to it.
"Okay, brother, do you think this will work?"
Gao Lian looked at the name on the name card and smiled faintly.
Inside the Lin Shangshu Mansion
Lin Ran had just come to Fushoutang to greet the old lady, and the old lady greeted her with a kind smile, with a smile on her face: "Child, come and see, Prince Jian sent a post." ”
Even though Lin was puzzled, she still stepped forward to take the post, and the old lady held her hand and said with a smile: "Child, this is the flower banquet held by Prince Jane's sister Yaoling County Lord, it is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, you have to take advantage of it." ”
Even Mama smiled and said, "Yes, I want to congratulate the third lady." ”
Lin suddenly knew that this was also a piece of kindness from the old lady, and said lightly with a smile: "Thank you, grandmother, but my grandson has a reluctant request." ”
The old lady touched her head lovingly, and said to the big girl: "Ruo Sakura, you go to the warehouse and get a fine silk cloth for the third lady, and we will show our brilliance when the time comes." ”
Mama Du and Luliu saw that the young lady was more and more favored by the old lady, and they were happy for her, Lin suddenly thanked the old lady, and just walked into the Ranyuan Pavilion with them, they heard a crisp voice.
"Sister, you really made me wait!"
Lin suddenly looked from afar and saw Lin Ruyi walking over in a brocade skirt in blue color.
She approached with a smile, "Sister, I don't know what's going on?" ”
"Can't you come if you're fine? Isn't my sister welcoming me? Lin Ruyi smiled coquettishly and grabbed her arm, as if she had something to say to her.
Lin suddenly looked at her and withdrew from the other maids, while Green Willow stood not far from them.
Lin Ran said in a low voice: "Little girl, let's say, what's the matter?" ”
Lin Ruyi whispered mysteriously: "I just received news that Prince Jian's Mansion is going to set up a flower banquet, and the second sister was also invited?" She pursed her lips disdainfully, and said indignantly: "Anyway, the third sister is also a concubine, why did you invite her?" ”
"Fool! I already knew. Lin Ran took out a famous post from behind him and said, "Look, isn't this it?" ”
Lin Ruyi's eyes widened in surprise: "Great, third sister, as long as you can participate, you will definitely be able to dominate the crowd." Lin Ran shook her head amusedly, her fifth sister seemed to be cold and indifferent, but after contacting her, she found that this girl actually had a kind and fiery heart, and she secretly thought that as long as she could further win over the fifth lady, it would help her gain a firm foothold in Shangshu Mansion.
"Ruyi, tell me the truth, are you envious?" Lin suddenly looked at her fleeting loss and asked her softly.
Lin Ruyi's mouth hooked up a bitter smile and said: "My mother is just a concubine, how can you compare to the favored Erniang, sister, you are different, no matter what, your status is higher than ours." "It's a lie to say that you don't lose, which girl in the flower season doesn't want to participate in the banquet of celebrities, let alone the banquet held by the county lords, this is a symbol of status.
"If you have anything to say in the future, just talk to your sister, dress up nicely that day, don't lose my face!" After Lin said with a smile, he patted her on the shoulder, turned around and walked into the house, leaving Lin Ruyi with a stunned face.
"W-what does this mean?" Lin Ruyi asked the green willow on the side stupidly.
"Fifth Miss, just now the Third Miss begged the old lady to take you to the flower banquet with you." Green Willow looked at Miss Wu and took out a piece of fabric: "This is for you by Miss." After she finished speaking, she turned around and followed Lin Ranran.
Lin Ruyi stood in place with tears in her eyes, unable to speak for a long time.
