Chapter 196: Sick

"What's wrong? But what happened when I wasn't at home? Seeing Xue'er's appearance, Xiahou Ying couldn't help frowning and asked.

"Mama Lan was just infected with the cold, I told her to go to the doctor to take a look, but she always said it didn't matter. However, when she was sick, Mrs. also let her wash her clothes in the cold air outlet in the backyard for a day! Now...... Mama Lan is so sick that she can't get out of bed! As she spoke, Cher couldn't help but cry softly.

Hearing Xue'er's words, Xiahou Ying couldn't help but clench her fists. She had already guessed that Shen Huizhen would not live in peace when she was away, but she didn't expect that it had only been two months since the last Dongmei incident, and she couldn't help it!

"Okay, Xue'er, don't cry yet, take the money and go find a better doctor for Mama Lan first, I'll take care of the rest." Xiahou Ying took out a piece of silver and put it in Xue'er's hand, patted Xue'er's hand and comforted her.

After Xue'er left, Xia Houying couldn't help but rub her temples that were a little swollen, too many things had happened this day, and she only felt very tired at this time.

"Knock knock", at this moment, the door suddenly rang.

"Who?" Xiahou Ying asked a little lazily.

"Eldest sister, it's me, Ting Chang." Lu Tingchang replied outside the door.

"Come in." Xia Houying heard that it was Lu Tingchang, although it was strange, she still got up and walked to the door.

"What's the matter?" Xiahou Ying looked at Lu Tingchang who entered the door and asked lightly.

"I ......" Lu Tingchang hesitated for a moment, and then said a little shyly, "I just heard Dugu Gongzi say that the eldest sister was frightened, so I brought some pearl powder over to ......."

Xiahou Ying didn't expect Lu Tingchang to be so careful, both surprised and a little moved.

"Thank you." Xiahou Ying smiled and took the pearl powder handed by Lu Tingchang, "It just so happens that I also have something I want to give you." ”

"Something for me?" Lu Tingchang looked at Xiahou Ying in surprise.

Xiahou Ying took out an envelope from her sleeve, handed it to Lu Tingchang, and said with a smile, "Fortunately, I have this thing with me, otherwise I am afraid that I will fall off the cliff with the carriage." ”

Lu Tingchang glanced at Xiahou Ying in surprise, then took the envelope, opened it gently, and took out the contents to look at it.

"This, this is ......" Lu Tingchang raised his head in disbelief and looked at Xiahou Ying.

"With this letter of recommendation written by Academician Lu, you will be able to come to Luming to take the exam next year." Xia Houying said with a smile.

"Eldest sister ......" held the letter of recommendation in his hand, and Lu Tingchang was so excited that he didn't know what to say at this time.

"Madame mentioned to me before that she hoped that I could ask the Guogong Mansion for help and write you a letter of recommendation recommending you to study at Luming Academy. But after thinking about it, I finally felt that it was not appropriate. Xiahou Ying looked at Lu Tingchang seriously.

"It's not difficult to get a letter of recommendation from Xiahou Mansion, but it's not easy to gain a foothold in a place like Luming Academy, Tingchang, do you understand what your sister said?" Xiahou Ying asked earnestly.

Listening to Xiahou Ying's words, Lu Tingchang couldn't help but shake his head slightly.

"There are some things that I never mentioned to my father because I was afraid that he would be worried. Do you know that on the first day of school, before I could enter the gate of the academy, I was ridiculed by everyone, just because I relied on the power of the Xiahou family to obtain the qualification for the exam. Thinking of the situation that day, Xiahou Ying's eyes couldn't help but darken.

"Eldest sister......" Lu Tingchang looked at Xiahou Ying in surprise, his eyes full of confusion.
