"By the way, my husband, I suddenly remembered that you said before that His Majesty wanted to take Ruan Ruan into the harem?"
After calming herself down, the prefect's wife suddenly said with a complicated expression, "If Ruanruan is really the eldest princess, won't His Majesty's actions leave him with a legacy of infamy?"
Zhou Renjun nodded, "Yes, so even for the sake of His Majesty's reputation, I must find out the truth before Ruan Ruan is discovered."
"I hope everything goes well," the prefect's wife said, pressing her palms together in a sincere prayer.
Yun Zhourong was talking to Ji Minxiu at the moment, and briefly explained Zhou Yueshan's situation to him.
“According to what you’ve said, that little girl’s condition is very likely autism,” Ji Minxiu said after a moment of thought.
"Autism?" Yun Zhourong had never heard of this condition before.
"This disease begins in infancy and early childhood, and is mainly characterized by varying degrees of language impairment, social communication impairment, narrow range of interests and stereotyped behavior patterns. About three-quarters of the children also have obvious intellectual disability."
Ji Minxiu explained in detail, "If it is not treated in time, it may accompany the child for life and cause immeasurable harm to the child."
“Then… An’an is already eighteen years old now, isn’t that…” Yun Zhourong’s face showed regret.
"Well, it's unlikely to get much better, but you never know."
Seeing Yun Zhourong's low spirits, Ji Minxiu didn't rule out the possibility of anything. "Didn't you say that the girl reacts differently when she's with you? The magnetic field between people is amazing. Maybe you can help her."
Sure enough, upon hearing this, Yun Zhourong immediately perked up and nodded, saying, "Yes, I will try my best. You don't know, An'an is really talented in painting, and her paintings are exceptionally beautiful."
"Yes, many autistic individuals do have outstanding talents in certain areas. It's good to let her continue to draw well."
Ji Minxiu nodded and continued, "I don't know much about autism either. I'll ask around when I get back and have someone come up with a treatment plan, then I'll let you know."
“Okay.” As a doctor, Yun Zhourong was naturally very interested in these difficult and complicated diseases.
The two talked for a while longer before Yun Zhourong went to rest, while Ji Minxiu continued to work on his computer as usual.
Seeing the man's focused expression, Yun Zhourong felt warm and at ease in her heart, and soon fell asleep.
The next day, when she woke up, Ji Minxiu was no longer there.
She stretched and got up to wash up.
As a result, right after breakfast, they heard that the prefect's wife had brought Zhou Yueshan over.
"An'an, slow down."
As soon as Yun Zhourong opened the door, she saw Zhou Yueshan rush over and throw herself into her arms, while the prefect's wife behind her anxiously reminded her.
"Good morning, An'an." Yun Zhourong helped Zhou Yueshan up and patted her head to greet her.
Zhou Yueshan didn't speak, she just looked at her quietly.
"It's quite rare that Miss is willing to let Miss Yun touch her!"
At this moment, the old woman in charge of taking care of Zhou Yueshan came over and said with some surprise, "We can help Miss get dressed normally, but we absolutely cannot touch her there."
"That's right, they won't even let you touch their face!" The prefect's wife also sighed with emotion.
"Really? Then it seems that An'an really likes her older sister!"
As Yun Zhourong spoke, she reached out and gently pinched Zhou Yueshan's cheek, smiling as she said, "Sister likes An'an very much too!"
At first, Zhou Yueshan frowned slightly at the unfamiliar touch, but for some reason, she quickly relaxed and did not show any discomfort.
"I didn't expect Miss Yun to have such skills. This old servant has served Miss for so long, but it's not as good as your half-day service."
The old woman had a smile on her face, but her words carried a hint of sarcasm.
Yun Zhourong frowned slightly, looking somewhat uncomfortable.
"You bet I'm even a little jealous."
On the contrary, the prefect's wife did not notice and echoed her with a slightly resentful tone.
Seeing this, Yun Zhourong didn't know what to say, and could only smile and say, "Then it seems that An'an and I are destined to be together. I will take good care of her. Good mother, you can go back with peace of mind."
"I won't go back; I'm staying here specifically to take care of An'an."
The prefect's wife shook her head and said, "She likes to stick to you now. As long as she can see you, her emotions will be very stable. I will help keep an eye on her and won't disturb you while you're doing your work."
"Alright, since Godmother has said so, then we'll follow your arrangements." Yun Zhourong has indeed been busy with some things these past few days and it's not convenient for her to take care of Zhou Yueshan.
Today, Yun Zhourong is busy with opening a clinic.
On one hand, it was her own obsession, and on the other hand, she wanted to give Lan Jianhe something to do.
The first thing to do was to buy a shop.
Naturally, they had to go to the street, but at this moment, Zhou Yueshan showed a look of resistance.
"Well, An'an rarely goes out, so she's a little shy," the prefect's wife explained.
"Yes, I understand. In that case, Godmother and An'an can wait in the carriage. I'll go find the broker myself." Yun Zhourong said considerately, then lifted the carriage curtain to get out.
When she was only halfway out, she found that her hem had been tugged.
This familiar feeling made Yun Zhourong immediately realize what was happening. She looked at Zhou Yueshan and said with a wry smile, "An'an, wait here. Your sister will be back soon, okay?"
Zhou Yueshan didn't speak, but just stared at her intently, her hand still not letting go.
Seeing this, Yun Zhourong paused for a moment before asking, "An'an, would you like to go for a walk in the street with your sister?"
Yun Zhourong was just saying it casually, but unexpectedly, after a moment of silence, Zhou Yueshan actually nodded.
Seeing her reaction, the prefect's wife was immediately delighted and looked at Zhou Yueshan, saying, "An'an, do you really want to get out of the carriage and go for a walk on the street?"
However, Zhou Yueshan ignored her and just stared at Yun Zhourong.
This reaction left the prefect's wife feeling utterly disappointed.
"Godmother, how about we try this first, and if it doesn't work, we can go back to the car?"
Seeing this, Yun Zhourong quickly said, "Anyway, the road here is quite wide, so let the carriage follow along, so we can deal with any emergencies at any time."
"Alright, then I'll do as you say." The prefect's wife thought for a moment and then nodded in agreement.
After all, Yun Zhourong had important matters to attend to, and couldn't just stay in the carriage and not go out because of Zhou Yueshan.
"Then An'an, let's go out."
Yun Zhourong extended her hand to Zhou Yueshan and said gently, "Give me your hand, and I'll help you get off the carriage, okay?"
Zhou Yueshan tilted her head and stared at her for a while before slowly reaching out her hand.
