Chapter 60: Medicine House
The black-armored guards drove the carriage to the Marquis' Mansion first. There was another carriage parked at the door of the mansion. Ling Feng was waiting there. Jiang Lan changed into this carriage and Ling Feng drove to the medicine house. Qing'er and Gui'er stayed in the mansion waiting.
"I wonder what His Royal Highness Prince Rui said to the girl a few days ago?" Ling Feng asked on the way.
No sound came from the carriage.
Ling Feng continued, "The young lady must have some misunderstanding about the Marquis."
Still no sound came from the carriage.
Ling Feng was about to continue when Jiang Lan suddenly said, "No fly bites an egg without cracks." Ling Feng explained, "Although people outside say that the Marquis is a playboy, in fact, the only one he truly cares about is this girl. Those are just superficial things and should not be taken seriously."
"If you continue to lobby for your Lord Marquis, I won't go." Jiang Lan said.
Ling Feng stopped talking.
After the carriage stopped at the door of the medicine house, the curtain was opened from the outside, and a pair of smiling peach blossom eyes came into view. Jiang Lan turned her eyes away and pretended not to see them. Her expression was slightly tense, and she once again built up that layer of indifferent and vigilant defense.
Qi Wu Han felt like he was back to the time when they first met. The little girl was wary and defensive towards him, wanting to keep him at a distance.
He was just one step away from opening the door to her heart, but that bastard Prince Rui intervened, making all his efforts these days go to waste. He really wanted to dig a hole and bury that bastard.
When Jiang Lan stood up and got off the carriage, she ignored the hand he extended to help her. After getting off the carriage, she did not make any eye contact with him and went straight into the medicine house. Qi Wuhan sighed helplessly and asked Ling Feng to lead the way for her. He followed behind her.
Ling Feng led Jiang Lan into a room and asked her to wait there while he went to call someone.
After Ling Feng left, Qi Wuhan was about to enter the house. As soon as he put one foot in, he noticed Jiang Lan glanced at him with a somewhat gloomy expression, as if she didn't want to be in the same room with him. He retracted his foot, folded his arms and leaned against the door, his eyes wandering aimlessly for a while. Just as he was about to say something, Ling Feng came over with Ye Rushui.
When Ye Rushui walked to the door, she saw Jiang Lan sitting in the room. She glanced at Qi Wuhan who was leaning against the door, and said in a slightly relieved tone, "It turns out that the Marquis also knows what it means that men and women should not touch each other." After that, she walked into the room.
Ling Feng bowed to Qi Wuhan, as if to calm him down.
Seeing someone come in, Jiang Lan was about to stand up to greet him, but Ye Rushui said, "Miss Jiang, there's no need to be so polite." As he spoke, he walked over and put down the medicine box, took out the pulse pillow from it and put it on the table. After Jiang Lan put her hand on it, he began to take her pulse.
Qi Wuhan stood guard at the door, his eyes fixed on Jiang Lan's hand that was being examined for pulse.
When taking Jiang Lan's pulse, she couldn't help but feel a little nervous, and her pulse also showed subtle changes. Ye Rushui said, "Miss Jiang, don't be nervous." His voice was as gentle as water, and people who heard it felt like they had taken a reassurance pill.
Jiang Lan also relaxed and was no longer nervous.
Time passed minute by minute, and there was silence inside and outside the house.
A little sparrow was about to fly to the tree in the yard and chirp a few times, but Qi Wuhan glanced at it and it immediately turned around and flew away. He gave Ling Feng another look, and Ling Feng understood. He walked into the yard and kept his eyes and ears open to prevent any sparrow from flying in.
After Ye Rushui withdrew her hand, Qi Wuhan asked, "How was it?" Ye Rushui then asked Jiang Lan, "Did Miss Jiang eat the medicinal food on time?" Jiang Lan lowered her head slightly, "I didn't eat it the last time..."
As soon as he finished speaking, Qi Wuhan became anxious, "Why don't you eat it? Didn't I have someone send it to you?" Jiang Lan turned her head and looked at him, "I don't want to eat it."
“.…..”
He was almost laughing out of anger. Looking at the back of her stubborn head, he really had no idea what to do with her.
Then Ye Rushui said, "Why don't you leave first, my Lord? I don't think Miss Jiang wants to see you."
“.…..”
Ling Feng bowed to Qi Wuhan again, asking him to calm down.
"Is there something wrong?" Jiang Lan asked worriedly. If she delayed the treatment because of her anger, she would definitely scold herself severely.
"Not really." Ye Rushui said, and Jiang Lan felt relieved. He took out a small porcelain bottle from the medicine box and handed it to her, asking her to take the pills inside first, and then asked her to get ready and wait for half an hour before giving her acupuncture.
Jiang Lan was a little confused at first and didn't know what to prepare. Ye Rushui explained that she had to take off her clothes before acupuncture. Jiang Lan's face turned red all of a sudden.
"Blindfold me." Qi Wuhan said, his tone a little bit gritted.
Ye Rushui said to Jiang Lan, "Miss Jiang, don't worry. I will close my eyes."
"Cover it!" Qi Wuhan said in a stern tone, his eyes moving to the black clothes worn by Ling Feng.
Ling Feng immediately realized what his lord was trying to do, and immediately bowed and said, "I'll go find a blindfold." Qi Wuhan said, "The darker the better."
After Ling Feng left, Ye Rushui and Qi Wuhan also left, leaving Jiang Lan alone in the room.
"If you dare to peek, I will tear down your medicine house!"
"My Lord, please take care of yourself first and stop being a beast in human clothing."
…
About half an hour later, Ye Rushui walked to the door, knocked, and asked, "Miss Jiang, are you ready?"
Qi Wuhan frowned, why did these words sound so dirty...
Jiang Lan hummed, feeling a mixture of shyness and nervousness.
Qi Wuhan's face turned slightly red. Ye Rushui looked at him and almost said the words "beast in human clothing" with her eyes.
"Cover it."
At Qi Wuhan's request, Ye Rushui tied the black cloth.
"I'm going to push the door open and go in. My Lord, please don't peek."
“.…..”
This also sounds obscene...
When Ye Rushui pushed open the door, Qi Wuhan turned his back to the room, his face slightly flushed, while Ling Feng had already left and was guarding outside the door.
He turned around when he heard the slight sound of the door closing. The slight blush on his face had faded, and he stared at the house with an expression that was unusually solemn.
As time passed, the light and shadow in the yard changed quietly.
The shadow cast on the ground also gathered towards the feet as the light and shadow changed, but the person always stayed in the same place, not moving an inch.
When the door opened, Qi Wuhan stepped forward quickly to ask what was going on. Ye Rushui first closed the door, then took off the black cloth on her eyes and said, "Whether it will succeed depends on Miss Jiang's perseverance." She glanced at the big sun in the sky again, said it was time to dry the herbs, and then went towards the backyard.
Qi Wuhan stood outside the door, hesitant for the first time. At this time, Ye Rushui, who had walked to the corner, stopped and said, "Miss Jiang may be unconscious. Someone must be there to watch over her." After that, she turned to the side and disappeared.
The next moment, there was a bang in the room, and Qi Wuhan immediately pushed the door open and walked in.
