Jiang Jiaojiao carefully applied the medicine and bandaged him, afraid of hurting him. His arm was fair and thin, making the wound look particularly gruesome and frightening.

That brat was indeed a wolf cub before he died.

Back then, Jiang Jiaojiao had only been a ghost for a short time and had even fought with him. Little did she know that it was his territory.

Later, I heard from the old ghost that his whole family had died when he was young, and his only sister had died on his way to find medicine because she ate the wrong thing.

After avenging his sister, he committed suicide at her grave and became a ghost.

Because of his ruthlessness, he quickly became the leader of that group of kids, seized a piece of territory, and recruited a large group of kids.

Why did you come here?

Jiang Jiaojiao looked like an angry little fox, her big round eyes glaring at him, her little mouth slightly pouting, and her cheeks puffed out, making her look exceptionally cute.

His heart was filled with excitement and joy.

Jiang Jiaojiao gently touched his wound, "Does it hurt?"

The tingling warmth on his arm gave his pale face an unnatural blush. "It was your maid who went to the manor to get something, and she was seen by my guards."

God knows how scared he was when he heard the news.

He rushed over without stopping. Fortunately, he arrived in time; any later, and the wound... would have been on her.

Thinking of this, a chill crept over her. "I've found you two people."

"Come in."

Two maids came in.

She has a round face, bright eyes, and a playful smile that always graces her lips. Her movements are light and agile, giving off a vibrant and energetic vibe. She seems quite clever.

The other maid had a delicate oval face, a calm expression, and firm, deep eyes that revealed a sense of composure. Her steps were steady, and she exuded an air of calm and unhurriedness.

The two maids immediately bowed to Jiang Jiaojiao and said in unison, "Greetings, Miss!"

Jiang Jiaojiao was slightly taken aback, then realized what she meant and said happily, "I was just looking for a skilled maid, and you've sent me two! What a coincidence!"

She carefully examined the two maids; why did they look somewhat familiar?

Then Wen asked, "What are your names?"

The round-faced maidservant immediately replied cleverly, "My name is Shiliu. Shiliu means many children and many blessings. I wish you and Your Highness a long and happy marriage with many children and many blessings."

"This servant is Qiuxiang. If you do not like her name, you may give her another name."

Qiu Xiang's cool eyes carried an intimidating aura, making her seem like someone not to be trifled with.

Pomegranate? Qiu Xiang?

The name sounds like a character from a play that Xiao Jinjin once told me about.

"Qiu Xiang's martial arts skills are on par with Dao Qing's, and Shi Liu knows some disguise techniques. With them by my side, I can feel more at ease."

Seeing that Jiaojiao was very curious about the two maids, Li Yan introduced them.

Jiang Jiaojiao was stunned, then overjoyed. One was highly skilled in martial arts? The other was good at disguise?

That's amazing!

A warm feeling welled up inside her, and Jiang Jiaojiao pouted, "You've given everyone to me, what are you going to do?"

"I have someone with me."

Li Yan looked at Jiang Jiaojiao with doting eyes: "If Jiaojiao is happy, then I am happy."

The sudden confession made Jiang Jiao blush with embarrassment.

"You...you must take good care of yourself. I...I'm going to check on the children."

Jiang Jiaojiao turned around shyly.

The pharmacy still smelled strongly of vomit. After all the vomit had been cleaned up, the old doctor was taking each patient's pulse, his face beaming with excitement. "Good! Good, good, good!"

Jiang Jiaojiao came in.

He excitedly shouted, "Come and see! The poison from the Gelsemium elegans has really been cured!"

"Truly a miraculous doctor! A miracle doctor indeed!"

Jiang Jiaojiao leaned over to look, and although the children were still lying weakly on the bed, they were no longer writhing in pain as they had just been.

Before Jiang Jiaojiao could take a closer look...

The boy suddenly knelt down in front of Jiang Jiaojiao with a thud, "You saved my sister, you can hit me or kill me as you please!"

What would I do with your life!

Jiang Jiaojiao followed his gaze to the little girl on the bed, "Is this your sister?"

The boy's expression changed drastically.

He leaped up instantly, transforming into a wolf cub, glaring fiercely at Jiang Jiaojiao, "I'm the one who bit him, kill me or do whatever you want, it has nothing to do with my sister!"

"elder brother……"

The little girl was startled awake by his voice, and like a frightened rabbit, she clung tightly to the boy's clothes. "Brother...where is this? I'm scared..."

The fierce look on the boy's face softened instantly. "Don't be afraid, Xiao Wu, your brother is here."

He raised his head and stared at Jiang Jiaojiao, his eyes flashing as if he had suddenly made a decision. With his straight and stubborn back, he slowly knelt down. "I am willing to be your slave, as long as... you let my sister go."

"elder brother--"

The little girl was so frightened when her brother suddenly knelt down that she fell off the bed.

Jiang Jiaojiao reacted quickly and caught the little girl. She felt as light as a skeleton in her hands. The little girl clung tightly to Jiang Jiaojiao's clothes and curled up in her arms.

When the boy turned around and saw his sister in Jiang Jiaojiao's hands, his eyes instantly turned red.

"Stop now if you don't want to hurt your sister!"

Jiang Jiaojiao, holding the little girl, scolded, "You are a human being, not a wild beast!"

The little girl trembled with fright.

Upon seeing this, the boy immediately rushed over.

But Qiu Xiang grabbed his collar with two fingers and quickly threw him away. The boy rolled over and darted back, but with Qiu Xiang around, he couldn't even touch a corner of the little girl's clothes before being thrown away again, ten times in a row.

The little girl burst into tears, crying, "Brother..."

The boy charged forward again, head covered, and fell into Qiu Xiang's hands. This time, Qiu Xiang didn't throw him away. She paused slightly and suddenly said, "He's a good prospect for martial arts."

Shiliu, who was quietly comforting the little girl, was taken aback.

I can't believe that Qiu Xiang, who is usually so aloof, actually has a moment of praising someone?

Jiang Jiaojiao nodded in agreement, "Yes, she is indeed a promising talent!"

"You little brat, stop! I won't hurt your sister."

The boy's eyes widened, and he instantly stopped struggling.

"You little rascal! Can't you even tell the difference between good and bad?"

The old lady scolded angrily, "If it weren't for the eldest young lady, how could your sister and the others be alive?"

At this moment.

Ah Yuan and Ah Xiang walked in looking disheveled, carrying a pile of clothes, food, and medicinal herbs. Ah Yuan even had a vegetable leaf on her head. "Miss, I've brought everything you asked for."

"What happened to you all?"

Jiang Jiaojiao was taken aback.

A-Yuan said angrily, "Those people outside were like madmen, they almost smashed our carriage! They didn't believe us when we showed them food and clothes, until Sister A-Xiang brought out medicinal herbs and used the excuse of delivering medicine to let us in."

"So you were just waiting outside to watch the show?"

Jiang Jiaojiao chuckled, "Qiuxiang, come with me to take a look."
