The housekeeper of the Metropolitan Guardian Mansion, who was waiting for Xi Ningyu and the others at the inn, couldn't help but become more and more impatient when he saw that the hour was getting later and later.

Just when the housekeeper wondered if Xi Ningyu and the others would come back tonight, Uncle Wen and Yu'er, who were carrying Toad's father, came in from outside the door, followed by Xi Ningyu and Toad.

"Oh, you're back." Seeing Xi Ningyu and the others coming back, Ran Bo, the housekeeper of the Metropolitan Protector Mansion, immediately stood up from the seat in the lobby and took two quick steps and bowed.

As soon as he looked up at the person who was speaking, Xi Ningyu was stunned for a moment. Then I remembered that this was not the housekeeper of the Metropolitan Protectorate who sent himself and Dr. Shi out of the Metropolitan Protectorate this morning.

Seeing that it was him, Xi Ningyu didn't pay attention. After bypassing Steward Ran, he walked straight to the innkeeper and asked for a guest room. After placing Toad's father, Xi Ningyu took care of Toad's father's injury.

Butler Ran, who followed Xi Ningyu into the guest room, watched Xi Ningyu treat the injured on the bed, and his heart became a little more anxious.

"Hmm~~~ Well, the main reason for the injury is that it has not been treated for a long time. In addition, he suffered from the wind and cold and fell into a coma for a long time, but fortunately, your father is usually in good health and is not in danger of his life. I prescribe a dose of medicine, and after a while, I will let Xiao Er run errands to grab the medicine, decoction and take it slowly. Pay more attention to keeping warm at night and don't let the wind chill worse! After Xi Ningyu finished the treatment, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw that Toad's father was not in much danger.

"Thank you, Miss, if you hadn't met Miss. I don't know ...... Woo~~Woo~~" Toad heard Xi Ningyu say that his father was not in danger of life, and prescribed a prescription to buy medicine. finally let go of a big stone in his heart, and the grievances and fears that had been suppressed for so long since his father was injured suddenly burst out, and he sat down on the ground and cried.

Xi Ningyu stopped the fish who wanted to come forward to comfort him.

The emotions that have been suppressed for so long are still vented through crying, so Xi Ningyu waited for Toad to cry for a while before letting the fish support Toad. Then hand over the prescribed prescription and some broken silver to Yu'er to ask Xiao Er to catch the medicine and send it back for use as soon as possible.

"Miss Xi, I am ordered by my housewife to ask Miss Xi to go and heal the general. I don't know when......" Seeing that Xi Ningyu was free after being busy, Steward Ran hurriedly stepped forward to talk.

"Shut ~~~"

"Your housewife will ask if she says please, and boom when she says boom. What's the matter, it's convenient for you to take another bite of me? What a big shelf, such a big official authority!! Xi Ningyu said.

Steward Ran's face suddenly turned red, and before he finished speaking, he was snatched away by Xi Ningyu, and he choked on the roar of half a sentence and a breath before he finished speaking.

"This, this...... Today...... "Steward Ran was choked by Xi Ningyu.

"How? Could it be that today I didn't agree to go to your general for a consultation, and your housewife planned to blast me out of Huaizhou County, and by the way, close the city gate and spit on me again? Xi Ningyu narrowed her eyes and squinted at Steward Ran.

"Don't dare, that can't ...... This is truly offended ...... today."

"It's that I don't dare, you are officials, I am the people. It's late at night, it's inconvenient to stay for a long time, send off guests!! Xi Ningyu turned around and said.

"Well, I'll bother me tomorrow. The girl is resting in peace, farewell, farewell. Steward Ran said as he bowed his body and retreated.

"Don't come tomorrow, don't say it's tired, we're still panicking." The fish who happened to go to ask Xiao Er to catch the medicine came back when he came in and heard Steward Ran say that he would come back tomorrow, so he answered casually.

“…………”

The toad, who was still sobbing a little on the side, heard this and said, "It's okay, Sister Yu'er." Tomorrow, I will ask Miss to give me some copper coins, and I will buy some ginger, garlic and vinegar, and boil it in the house to remove the fish. ”

Steward Ran, who had just walked out of the door and outside the window, heard the words of the divine mending knife, and the only remaining bit of residual blood was instantly emptied, if it wasn't for the people behind him who helped him, he would have slipped to the ground!

After settling Toad and her father, Xi Ningyu and the three of them also went back to their rooms to rest.

And when Steward Ran, who returned to the Duhu Mansion, faced Mrs. Sun, he was very sad.

"Why didn't you get anybody?"

"Ma'am, this ...... Miss Xi was reluctant to come. ”

"I don't want to! Do you have a courtesy extension? ”

"Madam, naturally, it is a kind request. Didn't offend Miss Xi in any way, just ......"

"What is the inside story of Tu Tu Tu Tu said quickly, the husband's condition is getting worse day by day. What are you still thinking about at this time!! Mrs. Sun saw that Steward Ran's words were vague, and she was in a hurry.

"Madam, it's all the old slave's fault. This morning...... When Madame ordered me to send them out of the house this morning, I saw that he was incapable of curing the general. I thought that Dr. Nashi had asked a girl to deceive his wife, so he sent him out of the house...... I, I, I took a sip of them......" Steward Ran lowered his head more and more as he spoke, and his head was almost down to his chest when he finished speaking.

"Bang~" Mrs. Sun patted the coffee table beside her.

"You, you, you...... You~~ are so nice...... It's so good!! Mrs. Sun stood up and fell limply on the seat as her words fell.

The close maids on both sides of the attendant were too busy to step forward to caress Mrs. Sun's chest and back.

After the maids were busy, Mrs. Sun, who was obedient, pointed to Steward Ran and said, "I am arguing with them for my husband." Even if there is a faux pas when the situation is urgent, it can be said that even if they don't like Miss Xi today, they will see that I am more responsible because of my husband's illness. ”

After taking a sip of the tea served by the maids, Mrs. Sun arrived again: "But you should not deceive the master, you know that you are angry with the lord." But what I don't know is that my Jiang family's family education is not strict, and I am a slave and a bully. Now how can it be good, please don't come to the banquet girl. The General's Ill ......"

Seeing Mrs. Sun sitting on the chair, she just cried with her eyes and sobbed. Steward Ran was ashamed and ashamed for a while, and stood aside Mo Kenai. Shuang Ju, a first-class personal maid beside Mrs. Sun, said: "Madame, don't worry, why don't you invite Mu Sanye to discuss." ”

Hearing Shuangju's words, Mrs. Sun hurriedly wiped her tears and said, "What I said is, look at how I forgot Third Brother Mu in a hurry." Go please! ”

After a while, Mu Hui, who was invited, greeted Mrs. Sun. After the two parties sat down, Mrs. Sun was not polite. Tell Mu Hui about Steward Ran's invitation to Xi Ningyu today and what Steward Ran did in the morning, hoping that Mu Hui's thoughts will resolve the knot between him and Xi Ningyu.

After hearing about the cause and effect of this incident, Mu Hui looked at Steward Ran who was standing on the side with a tea bowl and said, "Good slave! ”。

There was silence in the hall for a moment, and Mu Hui spoke: "Steward Ran said that when I saw Miss Xi return to the inn today, I brought back an injured person, I don't know if you can inquire about what's going on?" ”

"Go back to Mu Sanye and inquire. It is said that Miss Xi met a beggar when she was eating at 'Cuilanju', and she was moved by compassion for a moment to treat the beggar's father, that is, the injured person who brought him back to the inn. Steward Ran, who was standing aside with a face full of shame, immediately returned after hearing Mu Hui's question.

"Do you know how old that beggar is?" Mu Hui asked again.

"I don't know the specifics, but the old slave has seen it. I guess I'm thirteen or fourteen years old! Steward Ran replied.

"That's good, this thing can be done!" Mu Hui, who was silent for a while, put down the tea bowl and applauded and smiled.

"Third Brother Mu, but you have thought of a way?" Seeing this, Mrs. Sun immediately asked.

"Hehe, sister-in-law, Miss Xi has such a benevolent heart, so she doesn't have to worry about not touching her. But I'm afraid this matter will fall on my nephew. Mu Hui said with a smile.

"Zhan'er, he's only five years old. I don't know what the third brother means? Mrs. Sun asked with a little confusion.

"Hahaha~~ Why doesn't my sister-in-law understand that Miss Xi can be so compassionate to a strange beggar, if she lets Zhan'er go and beg her. How can Miss Xi not be soft-hearted, plus I will go with my sister-in-law tomorrow to extend the invitation, as long as my words are sincere, I am not afraid that Miss Xi will not come. Mu Hui said with a smile.

"It's just that I'm afraid I'll be wronged tomorrow sister-in-law." Mu Hui thought about it and said.

"It's okay, it's okay, for your second brother Jiang, a little grievance is nothing. What's more, it's my sister-in-law, and I'm at fault first, even if Miss Xi scolds me a few words, what's the matter. Mrs. Sun, who understood, also smiled, and she didn't care about the grievances she might encounter tomorrow.

Nothing was said all night.

Day 2. It's not yet dawn.

Mrs. Sun and Mu Hui, who came out of the Duhu General's Mansion early, sat in a carriage and rode a high-headed horse, and came to the outside of the Anfu Inn.

Entering the lobby, Xiao Er, who had just opened the door, was a little stunned when he saw so many people coming in. It was only when he saw that Steward Ran, who had been waiting in the inn for most of the day yesterday, entered the door later, and then reacted. Hurriedly informed the shopkeeper to come to greet him, and he also went to the back hall to boil water and make tea.

"Shopkeeper, has Miss Xi who lives in your store gotten up?" Steward Ran asked.

"Oh, you're early. Yesterday, those people were resting late, and they haven't gotten up yet, so why don't I go and ask for it? The shopkeeper said.

"No, don't quarrel with Miss Xi. Serve some good tea, and we'll wait again. Before Steward Ran could speak, Mu Hui spoke.

And Mrs. Sun, who was sitting on the side and hugged Jiang Zhan, who was only five years old and didn't seem to have woken up yet, also nodded in agreement.
