In the small village among the mountains and forests, the sound of roosters crowing never stopped.
Ru Liu stepped on the yellow mud road in the village, with the yellow mud on the soles of her feet, and she felt a little irritated and impatient.
This second wife is such a burden and has such a bad temper. I really don’t know what her young master likes about her that he insists on taking her back to Beijing.
There are countless virtuous beauties in the capital, and every one of them is eager to marry his son, but the second wife still despises his son.
A refined and talented man like his young master is more than enough to match a vulgar person like her who is unfaithful to her husband and has no heart!
Ru Liu felt irritated and depressed, but he was also afraid that if Li Sisi really got sick from the fever, his master would definitely not let him off easily.
I walked faster and faster, but I made mistakes in my haste.
Ru Liu slipped and fell on her butt with a cry of "ouch".
Now not only are my feet covered with yellow mud, but my hands and buttocks are also covered with it!
Ru Liu was so angry that she was shaking. She wished she could go back and pull Li Sisi into the carriage and do the important work assigned by the office first.
But he didn't dare, after all, he knew very well how much his master valued Li Sisi.
Ru Liu gritted her teeth and walked back angrily with quickened pace.
At this time, the morning light was already shining on the horizon.
Faint golden light shone into the house from the broken window, driving away the dampness and darkness inside.
Li Sisi had a fever all night. Although Rufeng sat by her bed and kept changing her cold towels, it didn't help much.
At this time, her forehead and neck were covered with fine beads of sweat, her brows were furrowed, and the mumbling in her mouth could no longer be heard.
Rufeng stood at the door and looked out, his face full of anxiety and uneasiness as he waited for the doctor Ruliu had called.
Seeing Ruliu coming back covered in mud, he didn't bother to ask any more questions.
The middle-aged man hurried forward, holding a portable medicine box, and said anxiously, "Doctor, please take a quick look. My wife's fever was gone yesterday, but it suddenly returned last night. Could you tell me what's going on?"
The middle-aged doctor was originally from this village, and he was the only barefoot doctor in the village.
The middle-aged doctor knew that this group of people must be resting here temporarily. These men all looked like martial artists, calling the woman on the bed "Madam". He guessed that the sick woman must be a noble lady from a wealthy family.
The middle-aged doctor pretended to be serious and sat down beside the simple wooden bed. He took Li Sisi's hand out from under the quilt, put his fingers on her wrist and examined her pulse seriously.
He squinted his eyes and took the patient's pulse for a long time, pretending to be profound.
Then he shook his head and sighed, standing up, his face solemn, saying, "This lady is seriously ill! Her pulse is disordered, her qi and blood are depleted, and there's a lot of cold accumulated in her body. I'm afraid she's been waiting too long."
When Ru Liu and Ru Feng heard what he said, their faces changed immediately.
Rufeng asked hurriedly, "Doctor, please prescribe some medicine. You must cure my wife no matter what. Just tell me what medicine you need."
The middle-aged doctor rolled his eyes and said, "I do have a few prescriptions you can try, but the prescriptions contain some rare herbs that are hard to find, so they are naturally not cheap."
Rufeng said without hesitation, "As long as you can cure my wife's illness, money is not a problem. Doctor, just prescribe the medicine."
The middle-aged doctor nodded in satisfaction upon hearing this, then took out two sets of pre-packaged herbs from his medicine box. "Take two sets first, one package at a time, and don't boil them again. Madam's illness is very severe, and it won't be cured in a short time. I have to come back for a follow-up visit tomorrow to observe the situation."
When Ru Liu heard his words, she was worried about the important things her master had arranged for her, so she said, "Doctor, we are in a hurry to get on the road. Can you prescribe a few more prescriptions for us to take on the road?"
As long as we can get through these two days and reach the Jiangling City that the young master mentioned, Li Sisi's illness can be cured in any way we want.
The middle-aged doctor frowned upon hearing this and looked at them with a puzzled look: "Why are you in such a hurry to leave?"
Ru Liu hurriedly replied, "We have some urgent matters at home, and the head of the family has instructed us to try not to waste time on the road."
The middle-aged doctor nodded after hearing this. "It's not impossible, but you must help your wife take her medicine on time during the journey. The fatigue of traveling will inevitably affect her condition. If something goes wrong on the way and causes your wife's condition to worsen, I will not be held responsible."
When Rufeng heard the doctor's words, he said to Ruliu worriedly, "How about I stay here and you take them on the journey?"
Ru Liu rejected it immediately: "No, you know our wife's temper. With your ability alone, you may not be able to keep her."
Ru Liu looked at the middle-aged doctor again and said, "We'll probably only be on the road for two days. If we take the medicine on time every day, there shouldn't be any serious problems, right? We'll see a doctor as soon as we get there."
The middle-aged doctor nodded and said, "Then when you get there, remember not to delay, so as not to delay your wife's treatment."
Ru Liu said hurriedly: "This is natural."
"Okay then. I'll go back and get the medicine. You guys should prepare today's medicine for Madam to take first."
"Okay, I'll see you off." Ru Liu said, and went out to see the middle-aged doctor off, and paid the money by the way.
The morning light gradually brightened, illuminating the exotic flowers and plants in the Yunjingting courtyard of the capital city, making them vibrant and bright.
The gardener took advantage of the early morning sunshine to start pruning the plants in the garden to ensure their freshness and beauty.
The servants began to clean the house and yard, ensuring that every spot was spotless.
On the first floor of the Liuli Pavilion in Yunjingting, the princess was sitting in the living room.
When the princess first arrived, Xiaobai wanted to go upstairs to call the lady to get up, but was stopped by the princess.
So he had no choice but to arrange for the servants to serve him with delicious cakes and fragrant tea, and he himself waited on the first floor for his wife to wake up.
Unexpectedly, his wife can really sleep!
It's almost lunch time, but she's still asleep!
The princess didn't expect that Madam Yun could sleep so well. She drank a pot of tea and went to the toilet several times, but no one came downstairs.
Just as I was thinking about whether to go out for a walk, I heard the little girl who was waiting upstairs hurried downstairs and said happily: "Big sister is awake and has already washed up."
In the master bedroom on the second floor, Li Nian slept very well. He sat up slowly, put on his shoes and got out of bed.
While getting dressed, Xiaoying heard that the princess had arrived early in the morning and was waiting in the lobby on the first floor.
Li Nian's heart skipped a beat.
She just arrived in the capital last night, and the princess is here?
Sisi said that the princess attended her funeral with a sad face.
Now that he came to see her, did he know something or did he have other plans?
But no matter what, we shouldn’t let Her Royal Highness the Princess wait for a whole morning!
Li Nian quickly washed her face and casually tied her hair into a simple bun. To make it look more formal, she added two hairpins.
It’s definitely too late to put on makeup. I’ll just go downstairs and explain it to Her Royal Highness the Princess.
Her Royal Highness the Princess is in a very good mood. She was willing to wait for her for the whole morning and didn't even send anyone upstairs to wake her up. She probably wasn't here to cause trouble.
