Chapter 186: House Arrest Tan Yuan
"What should we do about this, my mother is so sick, how can we do here with little medicine?" Ping'er was about to cry, but Chu Lan was much calmer.
Looking at Lin Xiaomiao, who was unconscious on the bed, Chu Lan fell into deep thought, last time it was Duanmu Heng who came to the rescue, but this time the Tanyuan was surrounded by people brought by Jinyu inside and out, not to mention Duanmu Heng, not even a fly could fly in, and Duanmu Yi made it clear that no matter what happened, Lin Xiaomiao would really get sick if she continued like this.
"Chu Lan, you should think of a way!" Ping'er knew that Chu Lan had an idea, so she turned to her for help, and the two little girls tucked Lin Xiaomiao's quilt into the corner to try to warm her up.
Because it was autumn and there was no permission from Duanmuyi, there was no carbon in the Tanyuan, Lin Xiaomiao wrapped the quilt tightly, but she still felt very cold.
"Bring our futon to Niangniang first, and I'll have to think of another way to get this medicine." Chu Lan and Ping'er went to their room to get the quilt.
Because the two of them are girls, this quilt is a lot rougher, and it is much thinner than Lin Xiaomiao's, Lin Xiaomiao's bed is still brought by Aoki when she sealed the side concubine two days ago, and the fine brocade on it is still brand new.
It was filled with white cotton, and it was very warm. And Ping'er and Chu Lan's treatment is not so good, the quilts of the two are coarse cloth, and the cotton core filled in them is not white cotton, the effect of keeping warm is worse, and the quilt is heavy, and it is uncomfortable to press on people's bodies, but at the moment, they can't take care of so much, Lin Xiaomiao can't freeze.
So the two of them first put one of the quilts on the bed, making the bed board warm and soft, while the other bed was covered with the brocade, so that Lin Xiaomiao was warm and not uncomfortable.
"Niangniang's wound has been soaked in water for a long time, and I will first get the medicine from the last time and give it to Niangniang, and then I will not let it worse." Chu Lan said and took out the medicine from the small cabinet next to the bed from the last time sent by Duanmu Heng.
After the last time, it was probably only enough for Lin Xiaomiao to use it twice, but now this emergency situation can't think about it so much, Chu Lan smeared the medicine with the help of Ping'er, this gold sore medicine is coagulated, and it is quickly absorbed when it is applied to the skin.
The two helped Lin Xiaomiao get the medicine, and then re-covered the quilt.
"Ping'er, Niangniang doesn't know when she will wake up, I'll go to the yard to pick up some branches, make a fire and burn some charcoal, so that Niangniang won't get cold at night."
Ping'er nodded, sat on the edge of Lin Xiaomiao's bed, and looked at her worriedly.
And Chu Lan walked alone to the courtyard, there are a few towering trees in this courtyard, it is very good to enjoy the shade in summer, and now it is autumn, the leaves have turned yellow, and a lot of yellow leaves have fallen to the ground, and the branches have become dry.
Chu Lan looked at the height of the tree and was worried for a while.
She was the daughter of a merchant in Xiaomen before she entered the house, and she had never climbed this tree.
Her brows tightened, she thought about Lin Xiaomiao in the room, gritted her teeth, lifted her skirt, and slammed it on the trunk, kicking the trunk hard to climb up.
Chu Lan looked at the tall tree, this branch was very thick, and he was very anxious.
What are she and Ping'er doing so weekdays! If they had known that there would be such a day, they should not have thrown away those fallen branches in the first place!
Just when she was annoyed, the towering tree above her head suddenly heard a "click" sound.
Chu Lan looked up and saw that a branch was falling rapidly, she ducked to the side, and found that the thing couldn't hit her at all, so she dared to step forward to check.
It was a branch that grew at the bottom of the comparatively, which was relatively thick, and this branch was relatively large, enough for her to burn charcoal for a few days.
In this way, Lin Xiaomiao, who had just suffered from the cold, would not be too cold at night, and with carbon, she could also boil some boiling water, and Chu Lan's expression suddenly became clear.
Chu Lan's joy could not be concealed, but this joy was mixed with some doubts, and she looked up at the tree.
It's strange, how could this branch suddenly fall off when it grows so well?
Seeing that this branch is neatly cut and did not fall naturally, who will be helping her?
The dense yellow leaves on the trees obscured her vision, and today's sun was so strong that it pierced her eyes, and she couldn't see the situation above.
"Hatsuarashi!" Ping'er inside suddenly called her, and Chu Lan didn't have time to think about it, so she put down the branch and ran towards the house.
And a black figure flashed on the tree, and Li Yu easily landed outside the wall of the Danyuan.
"Boss, what's in the square?" As soon as he fell, a person who also looked like a guard stepped forward and asked, Li Yu just said that he wanted to see the situation inside, so he jumped up the tree, but not long after he jumped up the tree, there was a noise inside.
"It's nothing, it's just that the branches have fallen." Li Yu smiled: "Patrol, the princess and concubine specially warned us not to release anyone in this Tan Garden." ”
The guard was not suspicious, and immediately got the order to continue patrolling.
If you want to talk about the side concubine, it is really miserable, although they don't know what happened to these guards, when they came, the gate of Tanyuan was already closed, and the princess used the order of the prince to transfer them here, and the three layers inside and outside the three layers of water are impassable, and I don't know what the reason for this place is.
As soon as he showed a contemplative look, Li Yu gave him a burst: "What do you want?" During the patrol, I dared to desert, go, catch two birds, and if I can't catch you, don't go to dinner today! ”
The guard sighed, but he didn't dare to disobey, and resigned himself to catch the two birds that Li Yu pointed at just now......
"Chu Lan, how long have I been asleep?" Lin Xiaomiao said weakly,
Chu Lan didn't expect Ping'er to call her because Lin Xiaomiao woke up, and the expression on her face became clear for a while: "Niangniang, it's not long, and the time for a cup of tea hasn't come yet." ”
With tears in her eyes: "The slave still thinks you ......" She wanted to speak but didn't dare to continue.
"I thought I'd been asleep for a few years." Lin Xiaomiao showed a bleak smile, she was really uncomfortable sleeping this night.
Ping'er and Chu Lan held Lin Xiaomiao's hand, her hands were still cold and cold, and she was a little sluggish, but it was a good thing to wake up now.
"Is the mother hungry? There are teas and pastries here, you eat them first. Chu Lan brought a small tray.
Lin Xiaomiao looked at the scattered pastries inside, and knew in her mind that there was nothing to eat in this sandalwood garden, and she waved her hand when she looked at Ping'er's greedy appearance with swallowed saliva.
"Eat it, I can't eat it." She pushed away the tray handed by Ping'er: "Is there nothing to eat in this garden?" Jinyu She ...... Oh, I forgot, did the princess surround this place? Ahem......"
Seeing that Lin Xiaomiao said so many words, her face became more and more pale, Chu Lan and Ping'er didn't dare to tell the truth, Ping'er stepped forward and patted her back, lowered her head, and didn't say a word.
Lin Xiaomiao looked at the expressions of the two and knew that she was right, and there was no food here, and they didn't even have anything to eat, this Jinyu was really ruthless.
She coughed violently, and each time she coughed, she would pull into the wound on her back, and it was extremely painful.
"Niangniang, don't worry about it, take care of your illness, and we will find a way to eat." Chu Lan frowned and soothed.
But she didn't have a bottom in her heart, and she couldn't conjure up something to eat.
"Silly girl, can I still not know the situation here? I'm afraid there are only a few pastries left in this garden, right? Fortunately, there is a well in the courtyard, otherwise we would have died of thirst here in a few days without food and water. ”
Lin Xiaomiao endured the discomfort and continued.
Chu Lan saw that she was poked, and she was a little cramped for a while, and she didn't know what to say, but she heard a sudden sound outside the door.
Smack-
There was the sound of something landing, the three of them looked at each other, and the embarrassing atmosphere eased a lot, but the three of them were nervous, Lin Xiaomiao nodded at Chu Lan, and motioned for her to go out to have a look, Chu Lan was afraid that something would happen, so she immediately trotted out to see.
There was no one in the yard, but next to the branch she had just picked up, a few birds with their wings broken suddenly appeared. The birds' wings were folded backwards, their feet tied together, and they struggled on the ground in great pain.
Chu Lan was a little surprised, this was obviously artificial! And it must have been done by someone with kung fu, and I don't know who could escape this heavy siege and send them these pieces of meat.
She immediately took the birds, counted about five, and went into the bedroom.
"Boss, what are you doing throwing a few birds in, the side concubines are all locked up, is it possible that you still have the heart to raise birds?" The guard who had been instructed by Li Yu to catch the bird just now was panting and thrusting his waist.
"In the future, if you dare to desert again, you will have to catch ten." Li Yu said viciously, but in his heart, he didn't mention how good he was.
Now the three of them will definitely survive two days. He couldn't help but think that he felt a little familiar when he picked up Chu Lan's hairpin that day, and only remembered that he had seen it before, and how many times he had seen it in that person when he was a child......
"Mother, it's five birds! They're all very fat, and they're still alive! Chu Lan jumped into the door, her eyes filled with joy.
Ping'er was a little surprised when she heard Chu Lan's words, and immediately stepped forward to take a look, and found that the birds in Chu Lan's hands were all round, and the two of them stepped forward together to show the birds to Lin Xiaomiao one by one.
"There's still a pigeon? Where did all this come from? Lin Xiaomiao was also very happy when she saw these living creatures.
