Chapter 102 The collar is a little open
"What are you doing with Dad's clothes?"
General Qin in the wheelchair looked suspicious.
Qin Mingzhu still had a smile on her face. "There's a guest outside whose clothes are dirty. I came to borrow some from you."
General Qin said solemnly, "Which guest is this? Those are my old hand-me-downs. It's really embarrassing to give them away like this. So, tell me what the person's figure is like. I'll have someone find you a few unworn pieces. Give them to the person to try on."
"No, no, Dad, you should take a good rest. Your daughter will go out first."
Qin Mingzhu didn't wait for General Qin to say anything and fled out of the room with her clothes.
General Qin glanced at the style of the clothes Qin Mingzhu was holding, his mouth twitched, and just as he was about to say something, Qin Mingzhu disappeared.
Seeing this, he sighed: "This child, why is she running away? No, I have to tell her that the reason she didn't wear that dress back then was because..."
In Qin Mingzhu's yard, she hurriedly handed the clothes she had retrieved to Yan Fengxiao.
"Although the color is a bit old-fashioned, you can wear it for the time being. I'll have it washed and returned to you once it's dry."
Yan Fengxiao took the clothes and did not refuse Qin Mingzhu's kindness.
He walked into the empty side room next door, closed the doors and windows, changed out of his black robe, and put on General Qin's dark blue robe.
General Qin's clothes were naturally very good, all made of the finest fabrics, but they were a little too small for Yan Fengxiao.
But it's barely enough.
General Qin was also a military general when he was young, and his height was only slightly shorter than Yan Fengxiao.
Pushing open the door, Yan Fengxiao, who had changed his clothes, walked out.
Qin Mingzhu was waiting outside, and as soon as Yan Fengxiao came out, she noticed that something was wrong with his clothes.
"Commander, wait."
Yan Fengxiao was stunned: "What's wrong?"
"Turn around..."
Yan Fengxiao turned around obediently, looking slightly puzzled.
Qin Mingzhu walked forward and saw that the thread on the side of Yan Fengxiao's neck was broken. She subconsciously reached out and pulled it, wanting to see how serious the break was.
With this pull, there was a ripping sound, and Yan Fengxiao's collar opened a little, revealing a piece of skin hidden under the collar.
At this moment, outside Qin Mingzhu's courtyard gate, General Qin turned his wheelchair and walked in.
"Mingzhu, that dress..."
Before he could finish his words, General Qin stared at Yan Fengxiao in the yard and Qin Mingzhu, who was tearing off each other's clothes...
Qin Mingzhu turned her head to look at the door, glanced at her father, then looked at her fingers, and quickly put her hands behind her back.
"Dad, why are you here?"
General Qin opened his mouth and said after a while: "I came here to tell you, the neckline of that dress was uncomfortable after it was made, so I didn't wear it. Your mother helped me take it apart halfway, but she hasn't sewed it back together yet."
Qin Mingzhu: “…”
General Qin didn't say much and took out another robe for Yan Fengxiao to change into. Although he didn't know what was going on between his daughter and Governor Yan, General Qin just watched silently and didn't give his daughter any instructions.
After staying at the Qin family for a few hours, it was already late. Yan Fengxiao, who was already pressed for time, said goodbye to General Qin and Madam Qin, and then rode away with his men on horseback.
The Qin Mansion fell completely quiet, and the servants in the mansion were exhausted after being busy all day.
Madam Qin gave each of the servants in the mansion some reward money, and the servants immediately perked up again.
Qin Mingzhu asked her mother to sit on the chair, and she stood behind her and massaged her shoulders and back.
Although Mrs. Qin was tired, she was very happy today. The Qin family had not held such a lively banquet in recent years, and she also saw many acquaintances she had not seen for a long time.
She said softly, "Mingzhu, you should have met all the people I invited. From now on, the Qin family's shops will be handed over to you. I'm old and I'm really a little overwhelmed."
Qin Mingzhu smiled and said, "Mom is not very old."
Calculated... not even forty years old...
When Mrs. Qin heard this, the smile on her face turned a little pale, and there was a hint of sigh in her voice.
She knew her own health clearly. If it weren't for the support of several old housekeepers who had been with her father all these years, the family business might not have lasted this long.
"Your uncle, Uncle Zhou, and Uncle Chen are all rare people you can trust. Without them, the Qin family would not have been able to survive until now."
"Mingzhu, please remember this."
Mrs. Qin's words made Qin Mingzhu feel a little uncomfortable.
It's like making arrangements for your funeral.
Aunt Chen suddenly knocked on the door.
He sent a message outside: "Madam, the Divine Doctor Bai you sent for earlier has just arrived. I have arranged for him to stay in the guest room. Do you want to see him now or tomorrow morning?"
Mrs. Qin suddenly became more energetic.
Qin Mingzhu was stunned. She narrowed her eyes and recalled the three words "Dr. Bai". Her heart suddenly sank.
She raised her eyes and asked quickly, "Mom, which Divine Doctor Bai?"
Madam Qin paused. "It's Dr. Bai from Luoyun Mountain. His reputation is well-known in that area, so I paid a large sum of money to have him examine your father's leg injuries."
She was a little worried about her general. His injuries had clearly worsened recently, and even medicine couldn't relieve the pain.
Every night, General Qin would even wake up from the severe pain in his legs, and the condition was getting worse and worse.
Qin Mingzhu frowned and carefully recalled the great doctor Bai from Luoyun Mountain, and already had some memories.
In her previous life, she was still staying in the Marquis' Mansion at this time, and had only vaguely heard of this Divine Doctor Bai. However, later she heard from the people in the General's Mansion that this Divine Doctor Bai was just a barefoot doctor who was cheating at the foot of the mountain and could only treat some minor colds. After coming to the Qin Mansion, he not only took away a lot of money from the Qin family, but also made General Qin's condition worse. He then disappeared without a trace.
"Mom, that man is most likely a liar."
The smile on Mrs. Qin's face became somewhat helpless.
"Mother knows...but even the imperial physicians from the palace have come to our house to see your father, and they're still helpless. The person who coated the knife with poison was truly too cruel. Mother has no other choice but to try and save him."
The Qin family has hired countless famous doctors over the years, and the money spent on them can be said to account for the bulk of the money.
But his father's health continued to deteriorate, which made Qin's mother worried.
Qin Mingzhu's eyes flickered slightly. She actually knew a real miracle doctor who might be able to cure her parents' injuries.
However, this person is really not easy to invite...
Because this person is the old priest of the Northern Frontier State, Master Zangxin, who is known to be able to revive the dead.
