"Miss!" Lan Li ran over in a fluster. Seeing this, Lu Ping subconsciously frowned.

"What's wrong?" Even Lu Ping herself did not notice that there was some dissatisfaction in her questioning voice.

Lan Li could clearly hear the faint reprimand in Lu Ping's tone, her face revealed a startled expression, and her eyes then revealed an expression of grievance and anxiety.

"Miss, the Gong family's sister-in-law says that their eldest sister is very sick, so I would like to ask you to help me invite Doctor Zhou, who often comes to our house to see her." Lan Ling whispered to me, her face filled with anxiety.

My heart sank when I saw Lan Li's expression. Gong Er's wife is very stubborn. If she wasn't too sick, she wouldn't have come to me. Lan Li was also very steady in her actions. She would come to me so recklessly, confirming my thoughts.

After hearing Lan Li's words, Lu Ping's face showed an expression of guilt. I brought the two of them back to my courtyard in a hurry.

"Miss!" That Second Wife Gong was standing by the side of the courtyard wall. When she saw me return, she hurriedly came up to greet me. Her eyes were completely red. Lan Lingyun took a few quick steps forward to help her up. She immediately stood up. Her skirt was covered in dust, and her palms were faintly stained with blood. Her normally unflustered hair was loose, and a few strands fell to the side of her face. She looked extremely miserable.

"Miss!" She came in front of me and couldn't even utter a few choked words. She kneeled down on the ground and said, "Please …." "Please …" She gripped my skirt with both hands.

"I know! I know! " I reached out to help her up, and Lan Ling followed me and helped her up.

"I've already sent Lu Ping to the outer courtyard to speak." I held her hand while Lan Li supported her, slowly walking into the courtyard.

When the mother on the door saw that I had returned, she hurriedly greeted me. I said, "Go to the kitchen and bring in a pot of hot water." Mother looked at Gong's second daughter-in-law and agreed in a low voice.

Just as the old woman left, the second wife wiped her tears away with her dust stained sleeve. She squatted down and happily said, "Many thanks, young miss. This servant will be going back."

I looked at her miserable appearance and said, "Why don't you wipe your face before you go? It's not good to be seen like this. "

Gong's second wife shook her head, "Girl, you can't leave me."

I knew it was pointless to say it again. My mother was worried about her children's hearts, so how could she stop because of such small matters?

"Go to my room and get me some tablets." I said to Lan Li, Gong Er's wife slightly blushed. When I came, Lady Lu Kuo had already given me a box.

I nodded. "Give her a piece when it's really no good. That ginseng can't make up for the strength. If I use the ginseng, I'm afraid it won't cure her. I hope that this girl won't be able to use it." "Hurry up and go!"

Second Wife Gong saluted and ran off with her skirt. Lan Li and Lu Ke followed me into the house.

"Go ahead, I'm here." The green bandit said to Lan Li, Lan Li slightly smiled, saluted to go. Serving alongside me was supposed to be a long errand, and since I was used to the green duckweed, there was no change in them. Now that Lu Ping went to pass on the message, Lan Li should have taken it. However, she still had to arrange for breakfast, which was why she smiled gratefully at Lu Kou.

The green bandit followed me to the screen, where he helped me change out of my clothes. He took a bright plain jacket, and under it a navy ponytail skirt, and a pair of soft embroidered shoes. He sat in front of the mirror and took off the hairpin on his head. Then, he turned his head and loosely held a homely piece of paper. I looked in the mirror and saw that the green bandit was quiet and unhurried, and I could not help but feel a little sorry for him.

The door curtain was lifted and Lu Ping came in carrying a bronze bowl. The orange shade was accompanied by a curling steam, while a white towel hung beside her. Lu Ping's face was somewhat blurry behind the steam.

When the green bandit saw that Lu Ping had entered, he silently took a step forward and took the basin from her hands. Lu Ping squatted down and took off my armband and rolled up my sleeves. Her lowered eyes were red.

I reached into the basin. The water was hot and there was a slight tingling on my skin. While I was washing my hands, Lan Ling came in with a maidservant to serve dinner.

After washing my hands, I sat on the brick bed. Lan Lingyun handed me a bowl, then used a handkerchief to wrap up the chopsticks for me. After doing all these on the first day, he already grasped my preferences so clearly. He really didn't see wrongly.

I took a sip of porridge and asked, "Is the girl ill?" A few days ago, he had met Gong Er's wife in his grandmother's courtyard, but she hadn't said anything at that time.

I raised my head and glanced at Lu Ping. Lan Lingyun looked at Lu Ping and then said, "It's not that I'm in a rush, but a few days ago, this girl had a bit of a fever. The Gong Family only treated this as a child's fever and used a rural method. If it wasn't for the fact that I didn't recognize her last night, I wouldn't have been able to feed her any water this morning. " I frowned. I didn't expect my daughter's illness to be this severe. Gong Er's wife cared so much for her child, so why would she let her child's illness be so severe?

I looked up at Lan, and she immediately understood what I meant. "A few days ago, Gong-jie and Gongzi arrived, and Miss was resting at noon, so I invited her to my room. She complained that my mother-in-law was a girl and wouldn't let her see me even if she was sick." I didn't think there would be such a twist, thinking that Gong's second wife was also not living a simple life under her mother. Now all he wanted was for the girl to recover.

Because I mentioned this matter, the three girls all probably thought that their future lives would be similar to Gong Er Wife's, being manipulated by Grandma and also having to work in the Mansion. They couldn't help but feel a little down. The three girls weren't in a good mood. My breakfast was used up in such a stifling silence.

I reclined on the kang, holding a copy of the book and reading it, but my mind had already drifted away. Kids died prematurely. Furthermore, the girl's illness was delayed, so he didn't know if she could get out of this predicament.

"Miss …" Through the paper glued to the window, I could hear the voice of the old woman outside. "There is a letter from you …" I helplessly smiled. Today was truly a busy day.

Lu Ping put down the needle and thread in her hand. "I'll go take a look!" I nodded. Lu Ping slightly bent her knees and lifted the curtain, leaving the room.
