When I heard the meaning behind Mother Du's words, I smiled and asked, "Has there been anything inappropriate with Miss Du recently?"

Everyone knew that her grandmother had angered Lan Xin, and in one night, they had all changed their words from "Miss Biao" to a girl.

Mama Du looked around as if she were afraid that someone would hear her praising Lanxin, and when she saw that the maids and maids around her were all busy, she pulled me to the end of the corridor to talk.

"Two days ago, this servant's grandson caught a cold and suffered from diarrhea. He found a few doctors who treated children's illnesses to look for me and ate quite a few sets of medicine, but none of them were effective." "The night before yesterday, when the fever broke and there was no treatment at home, a servant came to the old lady's place to get some medicine. When the young lady heard about it, not only did she follow the servant to the outer court to treat her grandson, she even personally made some medicine and worked on it for half the night before returning to the inner court."

When Mother Du mentioned the danger of her grandson's illness, her eyes reddened slightly, and a few drops of sparkling light appeared in the corner of her eyes. Mother Du had always been a prudent person. She had already left the key and came to the mansion to seek help. It seemed that her illness was not light.

Because of the anxiety he felt earlier, when he talked about Lan Xin taking care of him, his tone was filled with not only gratitude, but also respect.

Who is Mother Du?

She was Grandmother's most prized mother!

He was one of the people that followed his grandmother from Jiangnan to Saibei!

I have to say that Lanxin is really strong!

Hearing Mother Du's words, I couldn't stop myself from sneering.

Even Mother Du, who beat geese like this all day long, would lose her aim!

Since it was already the middle of the night, although they lived in the same courtyard, there were still three rooms between them. Why was it that Lan Xin could hear them? He had obviously noticed this matter from a long time ago and was waiting for his mother Du to deliver herself to him!

What a fan of the outside world!

Something had just happened at Mama Du's house. She was afraid that someone from her grandmother's yard would go and inform Lan Xin.

I might not be able to do it even if I was in his place!

From Mother Du's point of view, Lan Xin was so anxious that she did not care about her maiden's modesty. She left the courtyard in the middle of the night to treat her child. It was like she had a Bodhisattva heart. But in my opinion, Lan Xin already knew the illness of Mother Du's little grandson, and was just waiting for the disease to worsen before she jumped out to do Mother Du a favor. Why else would he prescribe such a medicine? Not to mention that this patient was a child with a weak body, so he could only choose some mild medicine to slowly recuperate himself. It could be seen that not only had Lan Xin carefully studied the illness of Mother Du's grandson, but she had also carefully considered the medication.

How was this a moment's work?

Although I have figured out the mystery behind this, I am not going to analyze these words for Mother Du.

My original intention was to have Lanxin stay in the inner chamber. With the support of Mother Du, Lan Xin's stay would be advantageous and harmless.

It's just that I feel that Lan Xin's actions are a bit shady. What's the difference between this and using the child in Aunt Chen's stomach as a bargaining chip?

If this matter were to fall into Grandmother's ears, Grandmother would see through it and would not be able to avoid feeling even more displeased with Lan Xin.

"There's actually such a thing!" I pretended to be surprised and imitated her tone as I spoke softly.

Seeing my enthusiasm, Mama Du became more and more interested in talking. She pulled me back a step and hid in the shade under the eaves of the corner room.

"I wonder what's wrong with our old lady!" Mother Du complained in a low voice, "Although they are not related by blood, but at least their family does owe us a favor. "We old ladies have already recognized him, but we are now leaving him in such a desolate place. What is the meaning of this!"

If he had only saved the Du Family's grandson, Mother Du would not have said that.

Although Grandmother did not call Lan Xin in front of her to celebrate, she also did not want Lan Xin to be deprived of clothes and little food. Mama Du was grateful to Lanxin, but she was also not a selfish person. If she didn't really think so, then Mama Du would never say such a thing in front of me.

"What do you mean?"

"Although our old lady ignored everything and threw the girl aside, the girl was neither angry nor angry. She really has a good temper, and she even came to me from time to time to inquire about the old lady's daily life. Two days ago, the girl said that when she saw that the old lady's tongue was yellow, it was the sign of burning the liver, so when she went back to her room, she sent a prescription for medicine to the maid beside her. It was a lot fresher than the one at our house before, the old lady said that it wasn't bad even after tasting it, and she even asked who came up with this idea to give her a reward! "This servant didn't dare to say it was the lady's idea, so I lied to the old lady and said it was the new chef. The old lady ordered the servant to reward you with five taels of silver, and this servant doesn't know who to give it to!"

As Mother Du spoke, her tone was surprisingly filled with righteous indignation.

If this continues, I might be able to say something …

Now that his mother Du said it so happily, he couldn't help but regret it when he thought about it afterwards. Inevitably, he felt a knot in his heart and found it unsightly.

"I …" He only said the word 'I' before he was interrupted by a voice from the corridor.

Hong Chang, who was dressed in a silvery-red armor, walked over quickly with a head full of perspiration, and pulled on Mother Du's sleeves: "Mother, where have you been? You called me to look for you for a while, the Old Ancestor has woken up, and is talking about you!"

She remembered what she had just said and turned her head to look at me.

"Mom, go quickly!" I smiled at her and nodded. "It's just some idle chatter, how could it be more important than Grandmother?"

I was telling her that I thought we'd just found a chance to talk and wouldn't tell anyone.

Mother Du smiled at me gratefully and came up to support me. "Why don't you come with us, Miss? We are going to the old lady's house later anyway!"

I smiled and shook my head.

"I always have a headache these days. I want to go to Lady Lan Xin's place and see if she has any good methods."

When Mother Du saw that I said that I was going to Lan Xin's place, she treated my words as though they were in my heart. Her smile intensified as she said in an attentive manner, "Miss, please be careful, this noonday sun is poisonous."

Even though he had already changed into a spring shirt, he still broke out in a sweat as he walked to the Tranquil Heart Shrine. The snow-white Moon Passage Gate just happened to be a wind vent.

The flowers were in full bloom outside, but there was no scent of flowers in the Tranquil Heart Shrine. The rich dark green leaves were layered over each other, creating a scene reminiscent of midsummer. A young maid was sitting on the veranda, dozing off. It was only when I reached the foot of the stairs that I realized that I had stood up in panic, perhaps because I had been sitting there for too long, and had staggered a few steps before I managed to walk steadily. Before I even reached the door, I shouted in a childish voice, "Big sister Lan Xin, the young miss is here!"

Big Sister Lan Xin?

She could buy people's hearts!

The light green curtain of the door was lifted, revealing a half-lit and half-dark face that seemed to be happy and displeased.

I was about to say something when the curtain fell and closed.

I couldn't help but laugh bitterly. It was obvious that such a nimble person was standing in front of others. How could he be so stunned when he was in front of me?

Was it because of the special feelings the King had for me?

Didn't she see that I was in the same boat as her?

"Miss, come in quickly!" Lan Xin's head maid, Chun Yu, respectfully closed the curtain at the side, carefully accompanying his smiling face.

I looked back at Lan Li and Lu Ke, and the two maidservants immediately understood what I meant.

Chun Yu didn't seem to know that the maidservants didn't usually enter the master's room. She welcomed the three of us into the room with a smile.

Lan Xin had a head full of rich black hair tied loosely with a piece of silk. Apart from a goose-yellow hair band, there was no jewelry at all. She wore a long, dark green dress with a blue apron tied around her waist. She was grinding herbs in a cyan-colored pot with her head lowered. Beneath her rolled up sleeves, she revealed a lotus root like arm and slender hands.

Although she was dressed simply and looked like a peasant woman, she did not look vulgar at all. Instead, she looked even more elegant and refined.

Sure enough, no matter what the beauty was wearing, she would look good!

I sighed in my heart and sat on the small Wooden Pellet opposite her.

Lan Xin raised her head and looked at me expressionlessly.

Chun Yu brought me a cup of tea. Although her actions weren't as beautiful as those who had been serving in the master's room since they were young, they were still very standard.

His improvement was really fast!

I opened the lid of the tea cup and a refreshing aroma wafted into my nose.

So bitter!

Just a tiny bit, and it went from his mouth all the way down to his throat.

I didn't need to look in the mirror to know how ugly my frown was.

"Miss, what's wrong?" Ever since I entered, two maids followed closely behind me. When they saw my strange expression, they naturally came up to ask.

"I'm fine!" "I'm fine!" I smacked my lips, hoping to dilute the bitterness in my mouth. Seeing Lan Li coming over, I passed the teacup in my hand to her. "Go and put it on the tea table over there!"

Lan Xin, who had been pretending to be focused, smiled even wider. In the end, she couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"Our girl is smiling!"

I laughed at her and wiped my mouth with the handkerchief.

As soon as the tea entered my mouth, I knew that Lanxin had come out of the pain of Prince Qi's impending consort.

"What does it have to do with you whether I laugh or not!"

Lan Xin threw away the small jade pestle in her hand, pulled a handkerchief from her sleeve to wipe her hands, then went to the window to find a rattan chair to sit down.

"Of course it's related!" Not wanting to look up at her, I stood up and sat down on the other side of the wicker chair.

The three maidservants naturally followed us to the window.

"Get me a cup of good tea!" I waved my hand at Spring Rain, who was standing behind Lan Xin with her head bowed.
