Chapter 221 The Brilliantly Talented but Sickly Child 7



The next morning, Li Yunyan got up early to prepare.

Today, she specially wore the clothes sent by the Jiang family, and for the first time ever, she also wore jewelry on her head.

She was already extremely beautiful, and with just a little makeup, she became breathtakingly beautiful.

When Sang Shijing saw Li Yunyan, dressed in a pink, fitted, flowing dress with jeweled tassels and a gold hairpin in her hair, enter the room to administer acupuncture to him, his heart pounded involuntarily, and his usually calm and aloof eyes became somewhat dark and unfathomable.

He quickly curled his palms, using the force of his fingernails to help himself regain his composure as soon as possible.

Fortunately, Li Yunyan was in a hurry and didn't notice his expression. She said loudly, "Young master, hurry up and take off your clothes. I can't keep Madam waiting for me!"

Her words left Sang Shijing feeling both helpless and amused. "Mother won't blame me."

"That won't work either."

Seeing that he was moving slowly, Li Yunyan simply took action and helped him loosen his belt.

She leaned very close, and as she bent down to tug at his belt, her loose black hair slipped down and brushed against Sang Shijing's face.

Sang Shijing smelled her unique, faint fragrance again, and her eyelashes trembled slightly.

Before Sang Shijing could even feel embarrassed, her inner garment was pulled open, and she was gently pushed down.

"Lie down properly and don't move around!"

"Mmm," he responded gently, a faint blush creeping up his ears.

Li Yunyan inserted the needles quickly and accurately, and even managed to remind him, "Stay home today, remember to dress warmly and don't catch a cold! I'll try to come back as early as possible, and I'll definitely have time to give you acupuncture again tonight!"

The simple, understated words of advice warmed Sang Shijing's heart. A smile played on his lips as he said gently, "I understand."

After finally finishing the acupuncture, Li Yunyan packed her things, said to Sang Shijing, "Wait for me to come back!" and then hurriedly went downstairs, lifting her skirt.

Sang Shijing stood by the window until her figure disappeared at the edge of his sight before turning his gaze away.

He intended to read by the window as usual, but he couldn't concentrate.

He sighed softly and simply put the book down.

"Dongyan, grind the ink!"

Dong Yan was overjoyed. "Young Master! You've finally decided to pick up your brush again? Do you want to write calligraphy or paint?"

Sang Shijing slowly walked to the desk and laid out the Xuan paper.

"Young master, would you like to paint? Would you like some paints?"

Seeing that the young master still did not respond, Dongyan thought he had misunderstood. "Young master, did you just ask me to grind the ink?"

Sang Shijing looked up at him and said two words indifferently: "Keep quiet."

Dong Yan immediately shut up.

Dongyan felt wronged because the young master disliked her for talking too much.

Doctor Li usually talks much more than him! Her mouth never stops chattering all day long, and the young master never asks Doctor Li to shut up!

When Li Yunyan ran to Jiang's courtyard, Jiang was already waiting.

"Madam, I'm sorry I'm late!"

"No, it's not too late!"

Jiang beckoned her over, took her hand, and looked her up and down, nodding and praising her repeatedly, "So beautiful! A young lady should dress like this. You had to dress plainly before because you were trying to treat Jing'er's illness. I'm so sorry you had to!"

Li Yunyan smiled and shook her head, "I'm not wronged at all. It's more convenient and comfortable to dress simply at home!"

When she said this, her eyes were clear and bright, and her smile was serene and gentle; she truly showed no sign of grievance. This softened Jiang's heart.

"What a good child!" Madam Jiang lovingly patted her head. Such a good child, if only Jing'er could...

She quickly suppressed the thought in her mind. Jing'er was not fully recovered yet, and it was too early to talk about these things! She couldn't be too greedy!

She took Li Yunyan's hand and walked towards the luxurious carriage at the door.

"Let's go."

The carriage traveled for about half an hour before arriving at the Li residence.

This was the second time Li Yunyan had come to this door.

At this time, the area outside the Li residence was bustling with activity. Elegantly dressed ladies were being helped down from their carriages by servants and then welcomed inside by the masters of the Li residence.

Li Yunyan quietly followed beside Jiang Shi. She didn't stand out in the noisy crowd, but Li Congzhong, who was standing at the door to greet guests, saw her and yelled.

"Aunt Jiang! Doctor Li! You've arrived!"

The group stopped and turned to look at them.

As everyone knows, Madam Jiang is the matriarch of the Sang family. The patriarch of the Sang family is a Hanlin scholar, the foremost scholar, with students all over the world. Many of the husbands or relatives present have benefited from the blessings of the patriarch and are highly respected.

As a result, many women came up and bowed to Jiang to greet her.

"Greetings, Madam Sang."

Jiang returned the greetings one by one.

In the back and forth they went, they all saw the graceful woman standing next to Jiang.

This woman was beautiful with bright eyes and white teeth, graceful figure, and outstanding appearance, making her unforgettable at first sight.

Everyone knew that the Sang family now only had three masters left and no other women, so they asked curiously, "Madam Sang, who is this young lady?"

Jiang, holding Li Yunyan's hand with obvious affection, introduced her to everyone: "Her name is Li Yunyan, and she is a doctor! She works hard taking care of Jing'er at home every day, so today I brought her out for a walk to relax!"

Li Yunyan also curtsied at the appropriate time, showing perfect manners and greeting everyone one by one.

"Yunyan greets all the ladies. May you all be well!"

"What a wonderful person!"

The ladies are all very shrewd. The young man from the Sang family was said to be extremely weak and not live past twenty, but seeing Madam Sang's complexion today, he seemed to have recovered greatly!
