The imperial doctor who came to the Hou Mansion was familiar with the Yun family, named Zhong Sheng, not young, with a gentle face, and a temperament that did not fight with others.

This time, Zhong Sheng saw Xia Shi anxiously guarding in front of the window of a little girl, and he was surprised, but he didn't show it, and went up to diagnose it first without saying a word.

After a while, Zhong Sheng removed his fingertips, returned Lu Yunqing's hand to the bed, got up and walked to the table in the outhouse to write the recipe.

Seeing Xia Shi coming, Zhong Sheng smiled and said: "Madame, don't worry, Miss has not been in the water for a long time, but she has suffered some cold, but her body is quite weak, I am afraid that she will be infected with the wind cold, I will prescribe a prescription for her to ward off the cold, and make up for it by the way."

However, the wound on the arm is a little deep, and the dressing must be changed frequently, and the young lady is young, and the wound should recover quickly. ”

Hearing this, Xia Shi immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and a smile appeared on his tense face, "Thank you Imperial Doctor Zhong for coming in time." ”

"You're welcome, ma'am."

Zhong Sheng laughed twice, "It's my duty to treat diseases and save people, but ...... Madame has adopted many adopted daughters, and this is the first time I have seen you so attentive to your adopted daughters. ”

"She's different."

Xia sighed and didn't explain.

Zhong Sheng nodded very approvingly when he heard this, and said: "This daughter is indeed different from the one you took in before, gentle and elegant, with a unique temperament, if it weren't for the whip marks on her body, I would really think she was born in a nobleman." ”

"What do you say? Whip marks? ”

Xia's face was stunned, almost thinking that he had misheard.

Zhong Sheng couldn't help but wonder when he saw this, "Although the marks on Miss's arm are very faint, close to none, I should see that it is correct, if you want to get rid of it, I am afraid it will take some time." ”

Xia Shi was a little dazed when he heard this, and he didn't even know how Zhong Sheng left.

She swayed back to the room, looked at Lu Yunqing, who had fallen asleep, suddenly gritted her teeth, and asked softly: "Huairong, you helped Yunqing take a bath before, and she was ......"

Huai Rong heard Xia's question, and sighed secretly, knowing that she couldn't hide it.

"Madam, let's go outside and talk, the little lady needs to rest."

Xia's lips whitened, nodded slightly, and walked to the outhouse.

Huai Rong helped her sit down and said in a low voice: "The slave knows now, when she was in the temple, the little lady didn't let her serve her to bathe, so she wasn't shy." ”

Xia's heart shook slightly, and his lips trembled and asked, "...... on her?" Is it really hurt? ”

"And quite a few, most of them are whip marks."

Huai Rong nodded, and her tone became more and more harsh, "Especially on the left shoulder, there is a big knife cut, four or five inches long, and I don't know how I survived at that time." ”

When Xia Shi heard this, he suddenly pinched the embroidered handkerchief in his hand, and only felt

There was a fine and dense pain in the heart.

Yun Qing is only twelve years old, what did she experience when she was a child?

"No wonder...... No wonder she doesn't remember. ”

Xia was in a trance and muttered to himself, "If the memories of the past are all pain and embarrassment, after a serious illness, it is not a bad thing to forget it completely." ”

Xia Shi thought about it, and felt more and more pity for Lu Yunqing in his heart.

At this moment, she completely substituted Yun Qing's identity into her daughter Yun Shu.

In the past, every day and night when she missed Yun Shu, she would wonder if Shu'er would suffer a lot, be beaten, and tortured after being taken away.

Twelve years later, God sent her Yun Qing, and her body was full of scars, was that the injury her daughter had suffered?

Xia Shi endured the sourness churning in his heart, "Go and ask Imperial Doctor Zhong to prepare more...... Scar cream. ”

Huai Rong nodded, looked at Xia's heartbroken appearance, and hurriedly comforted: "Madam, don't be sad. Now that the little lady is by your side, there will be no more past hardships and grievances, and you should be happy for her. ”

"Happy?"

After Huai Rong's reminder, Xia immediately remembered what happened before, and his eyes instantly became sharp and gloomy.

"Go and call Huan'er."

Not long after Huairong went down, Huan'er was called into the house, and she saluted tremblingly.

"Huan'er meets Madame."

Seeing the dried tears on Huan'er's face, Xia's heart softened a lot, and he asked softly, "What happened at the Fish Viewing Pavilion today?" ”

Huan'er's body trembled when she heard this, and she hurriedly spoke.

"Today, Miss Li Yuan didn't come over, Miss Li was resting in the courtyard, I didn't expect Miss Fourteen to come."

Yun Jiaojiao is the fourteenth among the adopted daughters, and everyone in the family calls her Miss Fourteen.

"Miss Fourteen was very enthusiastic as soon as she came, and took Miss Fish Pavilion to taste the dim sum of Ruyi Fang, and the little lady liked to eat dim sum very much, so she passed.

At the beginning, the two of them had a good conversation, but the slave stood far away and didn't hear what they were talking about, but then Miss Fourteen suddenly changed her face and took out a golden hairpin and scratched Miss!

The young lady panicked, was pushed by the fourteenth lady, and fell into the river. ”

After Huan'er finished speaking, she stood aside and fell silent.

Lu Yunqing acted suddenly, and she didn't have a chance to communicate with her halfway, of course she couldn't confess with Lu Yunqing.

But it doesn't matter, she was used to seeing these when she was in the Li family, didn't she just splash dirty water on Yun Jiaojiao?

This little thing, where Lu Yunqing needs to personally guide her, she can complete it beautifully by herself.

How did Xia know that Huan'er was so skilled, and after hearing these words, the anger that had accumulated in her heart was about to explode.

"Huai Rong

！ I told you to stare at those girls and don't bully Yun Qing, that's how you stared? ”

Huai Rong also blamed herself at the moment, and when she heard Xia Shi say this, she couldn't help but sigh bitterly: "Among the adopted misses, the most unruly is Miss Nine is Miss Sixteen, and the slave maid has been staring, but I didn't expect the always well-behaved Miss Fourteen...... And so it will be. ”

Xia snorted angrily, "Okay! All good! One will hide his thoughts more than the other, Huairong, you reminded me, there are too many adopted daughters in this Dingyuan Marquis Mansion, and it's normal to not be able to see it, it's time to clean it up! ”

Huai Rong was shocked when she heard this.

In the past twelve years, the mansion has taken in sixteen adopted daughters, and there have been a lot of jealousy in order to please the wife, and there are even those who have made trouble outside the mansion, and the Hou Ye's face is not disgraceful, and he has persuaded him a few times.

Mrs. was immersed in sadness, seeing that every adopted daughter was like a young lady, where was she willing to drive people away, Hou Ye felt sorry for Mrs., so she could only let her come nonsense.

Unexpectedly, this time, because of the young lady, Mrs. actually wanted to do it.

Little Miss, it's really different.

Huairong sighed and delighted in her heart. Yun Qing's appearance gave too much comfort, the former lady, the majestic housewife of the Hou Mansion, may be coming back again!

As the eldest maid of the former Mrs. Houfu, Huai Rong certainly has the means, and as soon as the Xia family is instructed, she immediately starts to drive people away.

In just half a day, sixteen adopted daughters were directly driven out of ten, of which 9 were all who had relied on the favor of the Xia family and done bad things before, and the last one was Yun Jiaojiao.

Yun Jiaojiao saw the grandmothers coming to drive people away, and the whole person seemed to be hit by five thunders and was stunned in place.

How so?

Yun Qing ...... Is that important?

"Miss Fourteen, let's go."

Mama stepped forward with a smile on her face, "This is the last time the old slave will call you Miss." ”

"I'm not leaving!!"

Yun Jiaojiao's body trembled violently, her face turned pale, and she suddenly fled like crazy, but was directly stopped by the servants and dragged out.

"Let go of me! Don't touch me, you! I want to see my mother! Something must have gone wrong?!

I didn't do anything at all? Why drive me away?! How could my mother not even give me a chance to defend myself? ”

Yun Jiaojiao struggled frantically, but she was pampered, where was the opponent of a group of grandmothers, she was directly dragged to the back door and thrown out.

With a plop, Yun Jiaojiao's arm landed on the ground, rubbing a line of blood.

She looked up and saw that there were still several adopted daughters of the Yun family standing beside her, their faces were pale and desperate, and she was stunned.

"Nine sisters, six sisters...... Why are you here? ”

Yun Jiaojiao got up in a hurry, and the nine girls seemed to be awakened by this sound, and they all looked at each other, and after seeing that it was Yun Jiaojiao, their faces were instantly full of hatred.

"Fourteen, that's you!"

"You caused us to be kicked out of the house, I fought with you!"

“……”

Seeing the nine sisters rushing up like crazy, Yun Jiaojiao was so frightened that her soul was gone, and she hurriedly rushed to the back door of Mama, grabbed Mama's sleeve tightly, swallowed her saliva, and said:

"Mama, take me to my mother! I was instructed by others, I was instructed by others, and I was forced to do so! ”

When the grandmother who originally wanted to spread the clouds and Jiaojiao heard this, her face suddenly changed slightly, and she only hesitated for a moment, and then said.

"Come with me to Madame."

Yun Jiaojiao nodded hurriedly and followed behind Mama, holding Mama's sleeve in her hand, as if grasping a life-saving straw.

Obviously, it was all directed and acted by Yun Qing, why was I kicked out of the house in the end?

Yun Jiaojiao was so aggrieved that she wanted to drip blood, but she knew that she couldn't tell the truth, and her mother wouldn't believe her at all!

Lu Yuanhe...... It's all you! ”

At this moment, Yun Jiaojiao hated not Yun Qing, but Lu Yuanhe.

If he hadn't let himself provoke Yun Qing, how could she have been kicked out if she pretended to be safe and secure on weekdays, and had no bad deeds?!

She hated Lu Yuanhe very much, so after seeing Xia's family, she immediately revealed all the facts.

"It's Lu Yuanhe!"

Yun Jiaojiao's face turned pale, and she stared at Xia Shi tightly and said: "It was Lu Yuanhe who asked me to do this, he gave me a precious golden hairpin, saying that it was for me to frame Yun Qing for stealing things, and make you dislike her!" ”

When Xia Shi heard this, his brows immediately furrowed tightly, and he scolded coldly: "I know Yuanhe's temperament, you are still lying until now, do you really think that I will remember the old relationship and not send you to the official?" ”

"No, Mother!"

Yun Jiaojiao burst into tears and her voice was hoarse, "What I said is true!" What you see must be true, just like your daughter used to pretend to be well-behaved, didn't you notice it?

Lu Yuanhe asked the child to do this and gave the child a hundred taels! The silver is still hidden in the dark compartment under the bed, and the child has not moved! Every word the child says is true! ”
