Chapter 42 My Brother is Going to Beijing
Fu Danjun felt a little tired and wanted to rest for a while.
Lan Fang came back and saw something, and she felt something was wrong: "Miss, is she ill? Should I call Master Qiao over?"
Before Fu Danjun could answer, someone outside announced, "Mr. Qiao is here."
Qiao Yishan came mainly to visit the patient and brought a lot of medicine.
Fu Danjun felt the patient's pulse and frowned: "The patient's constitution is getting weaker and colder than before."
Fu Danjun couldn't explain the reason, so Lan Fang came to the rescue and said, "The young lady was angry, about that Pei from the Marquis' Mansion."
Qiao Yishan sighed: "I see, let's go boil the medicine first."
After Lan Fang left, Fu Danjun fell into a drowsy sleep.
Qiao Yishan stayed by her side until Lan Fang brought the medicine.
Fu Danjun didn't act pretentiously and drank it all in one gulp.
Lan Fang sighed: "Miss, you are amazing. You can even drink something so bitter."
Fu Danjun said with a smile: "Prepare some wine and food, please have a few drinks, Mr. Qiao."
Qiao Yishan had already picked up the remaining medicine and stood up: "I still need to go see Madam Yuan."
Fu Danjun suddenly remembered that Yuan had come to see him several times, but she had declined because she was recuperating. "That's great, I'll go see her too."
Yuan's condition is the exact opposite of Fu Danjun's. She is strong enough to water the flowers and sweep the yard.
Although I still cough, it's not serious.
I had just finished watering the flowers and was about to pick up the embroidery needle and start sewing.
Qiao Yishan and Fu Danjun arrived, and Yuan quickly stood up to greet them: "Please sit inside, I'll make some tea first."
Fu Danjun hurriedly said with a smile: "Why are you being so polite? Let Master Qiao take your pulse."
Seeing Yuan walking briskly, Qiao Yishan smiled and said, "I don't even need to diagnose her. She's even healthier than Miss Fu."
Yuan smiled and asked Fu Danjun, "Is my sister feeling better? I've been very worried these past few days."
Fu Danjun pursed his lips and smiled: "What do we have to fear with Doctor Qiao here? What difficult and complicated disease can't he treat?"
They both laughed, and Yuan said, "Sister, eat more chicken, duck, fish, bird's nest, etc. Thanks to eating them for so many days, I am so strong. I'm just a little embarrassed."
Fu Danjun pointed at the flowers she embroidered and said, "What wonderful craftsmanship! Why don't you sell them and use the money to buy me some supplements? Besides, you're my Feng Shui master. Taking you out with me is a real help!"
After hearing this, Yuan was extremely happy.
Qiao Yishan saw that the two women seemed to be talking endlessly and he couldn't get a word in.
He was also very busy, so he said, "I have something else to do, so I won't bother you any more. I'll bring it back after you finish the medicine."
Yuan was not in a position to keep him, so she and Fu Danjun sent him out together.
Fu Danjun said, "Sir, you are just studying. Why don't you live here and enjoy the fun together?"
Qiao Yishan smiled and declined: "I'm a grown man, it's really inconvenient for me to live here, and I have some miscellaneous things to deal with. But I come every few days, it's the same."
Fu Danjun thought for a moment, then turned around and called a servant named Tieshao over: "From now on, follow Master Qiao and serve him well."
Qiao Yishan was surprised: "How can this be possible? I'm a poor scholar, why should I care about these things?"
Fu Danjun explained with a smile: "Having him run errands for you saves you energy. Besides, he's Tietou's younger brother and knows martial arts, so he can protect you."
Qiao Yishan was still hesitant, so Fu Danjun said, "I'll pay for his monthly allowance, so you don't have to worry about it."
Qiao Yishan couldn't help but blush: "I'm so poor that I can't even support a servant. I'm so ashamed."
Fu Danjun smiled and encouraged him: "Aim high and don't underestimate yourself."
In the following days, Fu Danjun was recuperating and resting.
But she couldn't let go of Shen Zhizhang's scandal, so she asked Lan Fang to dress up as a woman and go out to find out.
Lan Fang, who was both her most trusted and astute, found out everything and came back with this: "Mr. Chen has also been recuperating at home. The doctor at the mansion said his vitals are safe and there are no serious injuries."
Fu Danjun breathed a sigh of relief, but he also knew that Shen Zhizhang would definitely seek revenge.
"Please keep an eye out and find out when he can go out."
Lan Fang chuckled: "Not likely within three or four months."
After the words fell, Xu Yu asked from under the window outside: "Is my sister okay?"
Fu Danjun heard Xu Yu's voice: "Please come in."
Xu Yu brought a basket of walnut cookies and came over to eat with Fu Danjun: "My sister has been sick these past few days, and I've been worried sick. I feel really guilty."
Fu Danjun was surprised: "What are you feeling guilty about?"
Xu Yu smiled bitterly and said, "The tyrant rescued me first, so I should have gone back to rescue my sister, but... "
Fu Danjun laughed and said, "How can you be blamed for this? It's all that tyrant's fault. It's over now, so don't worry about it."
Xu Yu agreed with a smile, and at the same time felt that Fu Danjun seemed to have become more polite.
Fu Danjun did intend to distance himself from her, but it was not because Xu Yu was a bad person. On the contrary, the two of them shared hardships and their feelings for each other grew deeper day by day.
But there is a tyrant among them, who deliberately favors Xu Yu.
Xu Yu must have feelings for the tyrant, and the tyrant might take her as a concubine. It would be better for her to cut off all ties with the tyrant in the future, in case there is any lingering connection, or she is also brought into the palace.
So will the two of them still compete for each other's favor? Even if she doesn't, will Xu Yu?
Moreover, Xu Yu is also a moody person and can change his attitude very quickly.
Fu Danjun had to do this out of self-protection.
Xu Yu is a carefree person. Although he is a little unhappy, he doesn't take it to heart.
While eating walnut cakes, he talked about Shen Zhizhang: "That guy is fine, he is lucky. I am afraid he will show up again."
Fu Danjun burst out laughing and told Lan Fang the news he had found out.
"Don't worry, it won't come out in three or four months."
Xu Yu said indignantly: "One day I will definitely get rid of him..."
Fu Danjun shook his head: "Don't be impulsive. He is the nephew of the eldest princess. The tyrant still respects the eldest princess very much. After all, she is his aunt."
Xu Yu didn't say anything else, just sat for a while and left.
Lan Fang brought in a letter, and Fu Danjun saw that it was a letter from her brother.
It turned out that her brother received her letter and was very worried about the divorce, so he decided to go to Beijing to visit her.
We have already set off and will arrive in about half a month.
