Jiang was stunned and looked at her.
Liu smiled and said, "If you don't mind, I hope you can become my sworn sister."
"Then I can call Master brother-in-law from now on!"
Jiang was suddenly happy when she heard her say that. "Great! That's great! When I'm out of confinement, we'll become sworn brothers!"
Liu nodded.
Just then, a servant brought over some medicine, and Liu took it and looked at Jiang with a smile.
"Sister, it's time to take medicine!"
Jiang's face immediately turned bitter!
Liu was so amused, "Sister, Ru'er said before that Qingqing doesn't like to take medicine. I wonder who she inherited that from!"
"I think he must have taken after his sister!"
Jiang looked at her and smiled, "I guess no normal person would like to drink bitter medicine."
"I drank every day for a month when I was in Fengyang Prefecture. I feel like throwing up just thinking about it!"
Liu smiled and said, "I can't help it. Sister has to drink these days too! There's no way to avoid it."
Jiang had no choice but to sit up gently. Liu put a cushion behind her and waited for her to sit down before handing her the medicine bowl.
Jiang looked at the bowl of medicine and tried to struggle. She changed the subject and asked, "Qingqing, are you still sleeping now?"
Liu's eyes flickered slightly. In order not to worry Jiang, no one told her that Hua Qingqing was in a coma.
Liu thought about it, tucked the corner of the quilt for her with a smile, and then spoke.
"Qingqing, that kid, probably stayed up too late last night, so she hasn't woken up yet."
"But Ru'er and Feng'er have already gone to her place. If they wake up, they will have dinner with them."
"Sister needs to take good care of herself after the baby is born. Leave Qingqing's affairs to her two elder sisters. Sister, please don't worry about her for now."
Jiang didn't think much about it and could only nod.
"I am in this state now. I can't control it even if I want to."
"Tell Ru'er and Feng'er to let them bear more of the burden."
Liu looked at the medicine bowl that Jiang had been holding for a long time and said with a smile, "We are all sisters, so we should take care of each other. Sister, drink the medicine quickly! You can't avoid it!"
Jiang's thoughts were discovered, but she didn't feel embarrassed. She looked at the medicine a few more times before drinking it in one breath.
"It's so bitter! Ugh!"
Liu quickly brought her a cup of warm water and asked her to rinse her mouth. She also gave her some candied fruit to eat.
Jiang felt better now.
After talking about what happened before, the two of them no longer had any grudges in their hearts. They talked and laughed together, just like real sisters.
On the other side, Hua Changjue and Li Zhan, who were both with their men, searched for a whole night but found nothing.
"Father, it's been a whole night, and there's still no news."
"I don't think it's a good idea to keep looking like this." Hua Lingxuan frowned.
Hua Lingyi also nodded. "After searching for a night, Huaiqing Mansion seems to be quite large! If we search blindly, we may not find any clues even after ten days!"
Not long after, Li Zhan and his men also came over. The two of them met together.
Hua Changjue knew from their expressions that they would not get any results.
Hua Lingshu touched his chin and said suddenly.
"How about Ling Nan and I pretend to be beggars, mingle with them and ask around?"
Hua Changjue thought about it and said, "That's a good idea."
Li Zhan also nodded, "Beggars, they all hang out in the streets, they should know a lot of things."
Hua Changjue looked at Hua Lingshu and Hua Lingnan, "Then you must be careful. The other party can capture the four of us. Or they are coming for us."
"Otherwise, the other party will capture young men and women! So you must be careful."
Hua Lingyi said, "Don't worry, father. I will quietly follow behind them and protect them."
Hua Changjue nodded, "Then you go."
Hua Lingjian suddenly said, "We are new here after all, so we don't know what the specific situation is in Huaiqing Mansion?"
"How about we ask the locals?"
Hua Changjue and Li Zhan both looked at him.
Hua Lingjian continued, "Fifth brother, that method is good. It can be considered as asking the locals!"
"But I have thought of another way. That is to go find Mr. Qian's shop."
Hua Changjue reacted immediately.
"Yes, those shopkeepers stay here all year round, so they must be more informed than us."
Several people nodded.
Hua Changjue thought for a moment, looked at the others, and said, "It's a good opportunity for me to go there myself."
"Jane, take everyone to have breakfast first, then leave some people behind to look around."
Hua Lingjian nodded, "Okay!"
Hua Changjue took An Yi with him, thinking that the restaurant they just passed by should be the Qian family's shop.
An Yi hid in the dark, and Hua Changjue went to the restaurant alone.
This restaurant is located on the commercial street in the east city of Huaiqing Prefecture and is called Ruyi Restaurant.
As soon as the waiter opened the door, he saw a middle-aged man standing at the door. From his clothes and demeanor, he was no ordinary person.
The waiter came forward and asked carefully, "Sir, do you want to eat? We just opened the store now, and it will take another hour and a half to eat."
Hua Changjue shook his head.
"I have something to ask, so I came to see your shopkeeper."
The child quickly let him into the store.
"Then please wait here for a moment. I will go find our shopkeeper."
There was a waiter in the store moving tables and chairs, and he moved a chair for Hua Changjue.
"You go first."
Hua Changjue thanked him and the other party poured him a cup of tea.
Hua Changjue had been looking for someone all night and was indeed thirsty and hungry. He didn't hesitate to pick up the tea and drank several sips.
