(500), tentative head of the family

When Ruan Luo gently placed Ye Nuono on the bed, she was still asleep and did not wake up again.

This is not only because Ruan Luo deliberately lightened her movements, afraid of waking her up again, but also because she was too tired. Before, she was worried about things in her heart, and her spirit was extremely tight, but she didn't feel it, but once this mental state was relaxed, the tiredness of her body and mind suddenly pressed down like a mountain.

Many experienced physicians have seen a kind of sudden death, which is reflected in the excessive mental tension, so that the mental exhaustion has exceeded their tolerance, and when they relax down, the heart pulse suddenly breaks, but they do not feel it.

With Ye Nuonuo's age at this time, she would not be able to hold on to that Cheng dù, maybe before that, she couldn't hold on physically, and naturally fainted. But even so, in the face of the situation she just had, she still can't be taken lightly.

Heart disease is also a disease, and some of the big ladies have tuberculosis that they have accumulated by themselves. So before, the imperial doctor specially prescribed a medicine to Ye Nuonuo, judging from his qualifications, this is not a trivial matter, and Ye Zhengming only has this one daughter.

However, the imperial doctor's treatment method seems to have shown an unfortunate result from the very beginning, when the silver needle puncture point failed. But at the same time, the world is unpredictable, and it seems to be interspersed with a kind of wonder, Ruan Luo's appearance actually made Ye Nuonuo naturally calm down.

Ruan Luo saw that Ye Nuonuo, who had just been lying down, seemed to be sleeping unsteadily, and his hands were always moving around under the brocade quilt, as if he was naturally twitching due to excessive fright, and as if he wanted to grab something. He hesitated, reached into the covers, and held her hands in the palms of his own.

He didn't know what to do to lull a child to sleep, and could only vaguely guess if she really wanted to hold on to something in her dreams at this time, it would be for her. It must be something very important, so let her grab it!

Perhaps her own hand reached out to hold her hand, and in her dreams, it would become the hand of her father who she feared the most.

For some reason, Ruan Luo suddenly remembered his father.

Although his father is mediocre in martial arts and is mainly good at strategy, his body has always been very healthy. However, when he was in the prime of life, he was just passing by that deserted city, and he was killed by the plague, which was for him. Is it a disaster from heaven?

In the first few years after his father's death, the people around him kept it a secret from him at first, but soon they couldn't hide it anymore. Because for as long as he can remember, my father would spend part of his time with him every day, either playing or studying, and he never stopped for several years. If this daily habit is suddenly broken, he will spend half of his childhood in the barracks. I have seen many things related to life and death, and it is not difficult to move my worries and speculations about my father in that direction.

However, at that time, because he had to take multiple doses of decoction every day, his spirit and body were almost burned dry by the medicine, and even if he wanted to cry like the little girl in front of him, he couldn't show his strength.

In recent years, he has not missed his deceased father as often as he used to. After all, the dead are gone, and what the living need to pay more attention to is what they need to do in life.

But in the early years. The most common way for him to grieve and miss his deceased father was through dreams.

In his dreams, he often tried to catch up with the familiar and vague back, and he could feel that he was tired from running for a long time, and his forehead and back were wet with sweat from running. But every time he almost grabbed his father's hand, it swept over his palm. It's always just a corner of the clothes.

When he woke up from a dream, he could feel the sweat on his forehead and back, but his hands were often on the corner of the quilt.

At this time, he looked at Ye Nuonuo, who was still scratching his hands in the quilt although he was asleep, and he suddenly understood a problem.

If a few years ago, when he was in that long dream of chasing his father, someone at the bedside could reach out to him, then even if he was holding someone else's hand, at least in the dream, he would not be so regretful.

At this point he extended his hand to Yenono.

No matter what Ye Zhengming's injury looks like, whether he can fully recover in the future, at least now he can help her fill a dream.

Because of the Ye family's affairs, Ruan Luo remembered the painful memory of losing his father as a child, and photographed the dream of chasing his father that he had done many times in his childhood but did not have a successful one, on the little girl in front of him who almost had the same experience. Ye Nuonuo gradually slept steadily, and the tears in the corners of his eyes were dry, but a layer of wetness gradually appeared in his eyes, and he had not yet felt it.

Xiao Yu has been standing by the side, she watched Ruan Luo's focused eyes when she looked at her young lady, because she had the thought that had been moved in her heart before as a foreshadowing, although she also felt that the progress of a certain relationship between the two was not too fast, but she still secretly felt more steady.

With Ruan Gongzi's character and conduct, if he really entrusts the young lady to him, there is nothing wrong with it.

A woman can be married at the age of thirteen, when she reaches the age of fifteen, and after the ceremony, she can officially prepare for the marriage.

In the master's bedroom just now, the second prince also saw that scene, he was as close to his young lady as a brother, and in the end, he was able to leave that message, which seems to explain a problem, right?

The key is that the Ye family really needs a backbone who can take on big things now.

Xiao Yu, who was thinking about these questions in her heart, inadvertently swept her eyes across the ground. No one else had been to Yenono's boudoir today, but there was a line of wet footprints on the ground. Xiao Yu followed the footprints and saw Ruan Luo's feet, still wearing the shoes that were soaked in the heavy rain and sand when he went to pick them up at the beach.

Xiao Yu's heart moved, and she quietly retreated.

……

When he felt that Ye Nuonuo had completely slept peacefully, Ruan Luo finally opened her hand easily, covered the quilt for her, and compacted the corners of the quilt, he got up from the edge of the bed, and turned his head, but saw that the figure of the maid Xiaoyu was no longer in the boudoir.

The feeling of embarrassment passed through his heart for a moment, and Ruan Luo did not hesitate and walked out.

Outside the boudoir, there was also a small side hall, Ruan Luo saw Xiaoyu standing in the hall, with a basin of hot water next to her feet, and a pair of clean cotton shoes neatly arranged.

Ruan Luo was slightly stunned, and then he felt that his feet were already clammy and cold.

Xiaoyu wanted to serve Ruan Luo to wash his feet, but Ruan Luo refused, not to mention that this is Ye Mansion, even in his own home, he has not let Bai Tao serve to wash. A small daily thing, I do it myself.

He is not used to being served by others, but his habit, when it falls into Xiaoyu's eyes, naturally has another meaning.

After soaking his feet in hot water and stepping on his dry shoes and socks, Ruan Luo suddenly felt that he had also increased his energy. When washing his feet, Xiao Yu relayed to him a message that the second prince had left in the Ye Mansion when he returned to the palace, and Ruan Luo was surprised at first. But after that, I didn't hesitate anything.

If this matter is left on others, it may seem that the second prince's request is a little inappropriate, but Ruan Luo is different. He himself has no relatives in Kyoto, so he values his friends more than ordinary people.

Although Ye Zhengming only diagnosed and treated him twice, he was able to find Yi Wenqian, a master among the township doctors in Bo County, so that his physical condition benefited a lot from his three-year recuperation life, and Ye Zhengming's kindness as a guide was also not shallow.

Not to mention at the family banquet a few days ago. Yenuo also worshipped him as his brother-in-law.

After rectifying his mind a little, Ruan Luo walked out of the house, thinking about how to arrange the affairs in the Ye Mansion, and was a little worried that he didn't know anything about the Ye family, so he saw the dozen or so servants in the courtyard who were still motionless and kneeling on the ground.

At this time, the rain was a little lighter. But after all, it was not completely stopped, the clothes on these people were already soaked, and several of them had already begun to shiver. Ruan Luo hesitated. Raise your voice and say: Everyone get up! The rain hasn't stopped yet, and if you consume it like this, it's not good for your health, and it won't help much.

I don't know who in the crowd shouted: I want to pray for the master, the rain doesn't stop. We don't get up.

The first half of the sentence sounds touching, but the second half of the sentence is a bit stupid. It doesn't rain. It's a natural phenomenon, when will it be up to man to decide? At most, some people can observe it empirically, but that is also a passive peep at the sky, and they still can't take the initiative to control anything.

But Ruan Luo could hear that this somewhat stubborn sentence contained a kind of determination in them, and the deep feelings that condensed this determination made him unable to bear to reprimand and order anyone present to speak out.

Ruan Luo looked around at everyone in the room, and asked, "Do you all think so?"

Soon, he heard a buzzing and muffled group response.

Ruan Luo was silent for a while, then looked sideways and whispered to Xiao Yu beside him: Who started this?

It's the two aunts at the front...... Seeing that Ruan Luo had doubts in his eyes after hearing this, Xiao Yu was afraid that he was wrong, and added: They are all the nurses of the eldest lady, and they have been serving the young lady in the mansion since then.

Ruan Luo nodded and didn't ask anything more. He looked back at the kneeling people in the courtyard, and finally focused on the two women at the front of the crowd, and saw that they were already shivering.

Ruan Luo sighed in his heart, he was not used to serving as a servant, and he had never raised many such people in his residence, so he hadn't paid much attention to this kind of person, but today, even if he didn't have much impression of servants, he felt surprised and moved from this group of people in the Ye family.

What is the usual life of the Ye family that will create such a group of people?

The Song Mansion where he lives now is actually not a simple mansion, in which many of the servants are actually trained, aiming to cultivate some special talents for the emperor, but this is such an environment, which may be more harmonious than ordinary households, but in terms of a certain atmosphere, it is still a little unable to catch up with the Ye Mansion, which only has a second courtyard and a total of less than twenty servants.

Ruan Luo walked down the steps, picked up the two aunts, and said seriously: Sister Nuo Nuo needs the comfort of the two of you very much now, you should accompany her more, instead of kneeling here and hurting your body.

The two aunts remembered the oracle left by the second prince that spread in the house just now, and at this time, they saw that the person entrusted by the oracle was standing near in front of them, and their words were so gentle, the two aunts' hearts were slightly relieved, and the figure that had just stood up staggered.

Ruan Luo's eyes moved, swept to the two family members kneeling around the two aunts, his face was solemn, and ordered: You two get up and help these two aunts to go back to the house to rest first.

Some people consciously stood up and did what they said. But before leaving, the two aunts finally couldn't help but ask: Ruan Gongzi, do you know how my master is now? All of us were worried, but we didn't know how to help, but we couldn't help it, so we had to kneel here.

Another aunt then added: The second highness came down just now, and we can't enter the master's room, I don't know what his situation is, but he is very ruthless, so ...... Only in this way can we get closest to the master.

The words of the two aunts were a little messy, in fact, they were repeating a question, but Ruan Luo could hear their urgent feelings from such words, and there were already people in the crowd who echoed their voices when their voices fell.

Ruan Luo raised his hand at the crowd, and when everyone was quiet, he calmly said word by word: You must stay calm now, just now His Royal Highness the Prince has left an imperial doctor in the palace, and there are a few internal guards, so it shouldn't be a big problem. If there is a problem, they will be able to find help as quickly as possible.

There were a few sighs from the crowd, and another person asked, "When will we be able to see the master?"

If this situation is left in an ordinary house, if the head of the family is sick, how can a servant say that he can see it if he wants to, but Ruan Luo has been watching this group of people kneel in the rain for nearly an hour, and in his heart, this group of people is no longer servants in the ordinary sense.

Ruan Luo had a slightly hesitant look on his face, and first said: You guys get up first.

Everyone finally got up one after another, kneeling in the cold rain for so long, many people just got together, and they all staggered.

Ruan Luo looked at this group of people and couldn't help but want to sigh, but in the end, he replaced the not-so-positive action before with a deep breath, and then said in a loud voice: Everyone has served Doctor Ye for some years, and they should have some insight and understand that the root of curing diseases still lies in medical skills and medicinal materials, rather than praying to the gods. And I would say that instead of hoping for the ethereal providence, you should do something practical.

A servant suddenly said in a loud voice: "I know, just now, His Royal Highness the Prince left an edict and handed over all the affairs of the Ye Mansion to you, Gongzi Ruan, so you must have a way, and we all don't know what to do, and we need someone to take the idea." Ruan Gongzi, if you have any good ideas, even if you tell us, we will definitely do it.

This can be regarded as a morale-boosting sentence, as soon as this remark came out, everyone really began to pay attention to a problem, and regarded Ruan Luo as the tentative master of the Ye family.
