C50 Thank You

Furthermore, Lan Xiu had returned to the Grand Lady's residence after leaving Lin Ruo Xi's courtyard. When she saw the Grand Lady sitting by the table in a daze, she went up to greet her.

"Lan Xiu is back? How is that girl Ruo Xi?" Although the Grand Lady's tone was calm, her eyes were filled with worry.

Lan Xiu was also considering whether or not she should tell the Grand Lady what the doctor had said. However, she heard the Grand Lady's self-reproach, "Is it very serious? Lan Xiu, do you think I was too cruel?"

"No, Eldest Miss has done something wrong. She naturally has to be punished. Grand Lady, you don't have to think too much about it. Lan Xiu went to ask Qing He just now. She said that Eldest Miss is fine." Lan Xiu walked behind the Grand Lady and massaged her shoulders.

The Grand Lady heaved a sigh of relief. "It's good that you're fine. Otherwise, I would have been worried."

"Grand Lady, there's something very strange about this." Lan Xiu decided to tell her.

"What is it?"

Lan Xiu repeated what the doctor had said to the Grand Lady and asked, "Don't you think it's strange? Why did Qing He hide it from me?"

The Grand Lady did not answer Lan Xiu's question. After pondering for a while, she muttered to herself, "It seems that this matter is not over yet."

However, things did not develop as the Grand Lady and Lin Ruo Yin had expected. Three days passed, and there was no movement in Lin Ruo Xi's courtyard. It was so quiet that they almost forgot about their existence.

Lv Yu had finished brewing the medicine for Lin Ruo Yin in the kitchen. Just as she was about to bring it back to her room to drink it, she felt someone staring at her. However, when she turned around, the people in the kitchen were all busy with their own things, so no one bothered to look at her.

"Strange, could it be that I have encountered an evil spirit?" Lv Yu was shocked by her own thoughts and quickly carried the medicine out.

When she passed by the garden, she heard someone talking about something interesting, so she wanted to go over and listen. When she returned to her room, she would tell the Miss about it. However, she didn't expect that as soon as she got closer, she would hear them talking about someone else. It was her family's Miss.

"Do you know? It turns out that the Eldest Miss's cosmetician was hired by Third Miss."

"So the most poisonous one is actually Third Miss."

"Who said that? Everyone says that the prettier a woman is, the more vicious her heart is. This is true."

Everyone started to discuss among themselves, not paying attention to Lv Yu who had already walked to their side.

"Hey, what nonsense are you talking about? My family's Miss is the best. You are not allowed to say anything bad about her." Lv Yu put the medicine aside and stood akimbo to defend her family's Miss.

As if she didn't expect that she would be caught red-handed for saying bad things about someone, these people turned around awkwardly and realized that only Lv Yu, this little girl, did not put her in her eyes at all.

"The entire residence is saying that Third Miss hired the cosmetician. She is the one who framed Eldest Miss on purpose." Someone was the first to speak.

"That's right. Eldest Miss is such a good person and treats the little girl very well. How could she do such a thing? Third Miss must have found someone to cast a spell on Eldest Miss, that's why she is like this." Someone quickly added.

"You all are talking nonsense. Third Miss must have taken advantage of Eldest Miss and slandered our Miss here." Lv Yu was so angry that she almost blew out smoke, but she was not as good at talking as Hong Mei. Other than shouting that they were wrongly accused, she really didn't know what to say.

Seeing Lv Yu so protective of her own Miss, someone laughed softly and said, "I see that you are still young and have the good heart to remind you. You don't know the heart of the person you know. Your Miss might be the next one to deal with you."

"You are lying!" Lv Yu was anxious. The Miss would not chase her away.

"Lv Yu, you little girl, you have really been deceived by your Miss. Do you know that when Eldest Miss was locked in the woodshed that night, your Miss went to the woodshed?"

"You're lying. That night, Eldest Miss didn't even walk out of the door." Lv Yu remembered very clearly that Eldest Miss had already gone to sleep.

"You are really stupid. Can you guard your Miss for a night? Even the doctor said that Eldest Miss had a whip wound on her body, but the old master only gave Eldest Miss a stick. How could the whip wound on Eldest Miss's body be there? Other than your Miss, who else could it be?" Someone said it clearly, making Lv Yu unable to say a word.

Just at this moment, someone shouted, "Aunt Lan Xiu is here."

When everyone heard it was Aunt Lan Xiu, they knew that she hated it the most when servants gossiped. If she said something in front of Grand Lady, they would not be able to stay.

In the blink of an eye, everyone dispersed.

Only Lv Yu was still fuming on the spot.

"You're still not leaving?" A male voice came from behind. Lv Yu turned around and saw that it was Xiao Bei.

Lv Yu was overjoyed when she saw Xiao Bei. She thought for a moment and asked, "So it was you? You helped us again."

Xiao Bei glanced at Lv Yu, but he didn't have any intention of talking to her. Just as he was about to return to the kitchen, he saw Lin Ruo Yin walking over from not far away.

The injuries on her face had almost healed, and she could barely see anything. Xiao Bei looked at her slowly approaching and was stunned for a moment, forgetting to salute her.

"Why are you here?" Lin Ruo Yin was grateful to Xiao Bei, but seeing him like this, she felt that he had some power. Thus, her voice was also a little cold.

Lv Yu saw that Miss treated Xiao Bei like this, and remembered that he had just helped her. Thus, she walked over and said, "Miss, a few people were talking bad about Miss just now. Lv Yu was angry and almost had a conflict with them, but luckily Xiao Bei helped me."

Hearing Lv Yu's words, Lin Ruo Yin finally looked at Xiao Bei in the eye. The thing that left the deepest impression on her was his eyes. If it wasn't for those eyes, she wouldn't have saved him on impulse that day. However, he had already repay her kindness with a drop of water.

"I really have to thank you." Lin Ruo Yin softened her tone and said to Xiao Bei.

Xiao Bei finally returned to his senses. Thinking back to his previous appearance, he lowered his head in embarrassment and said, "Miss must be joking."

"Joking?" Lin Ruo Yin's slightly raised tone seemed to be a little dissatisfied. She looked at him and said, "I was very serious. If it wasn't for you last time, I would have been disfigured. Speaking of which, I really should thank you."

"This is what I should do. Besides, Miss is my savior." Xiao Bei finally raised his head and looked at Lin Ruo Yin.

Lin Ruo Yin looked into his eyes. The depth in his eyes seemed to be like the vast starry sky. Every time she saw it, it would make her heart move.

The atmosphere at this moment was a little subtle. The one who ruined everything was Lv Yu, who did not know how to observe the expression of others. She suddenly screamed, "Ah, Miss's medicine is cold."

Facing Lv Yu, Lin Ruo Yin could only smile helplessly and told her to quickly go and boil another bowl of medicine before going back to her room.

"Miss, wait a moment." Xiao Bei suddenly shouted and stopped her.
