Liu Ziqi always unconsciously forgot that Yu Jiao was a doctor. When he heard her say that, he remembered Yu Jiao's profound medical skills. He couldn't help but ask, "Is it possible to cure Tao'er's illness?"
Yu Jiao shook her head. The high fever burned the nerve center, causing intellectual disability that would be difficult to recover from even with the medical level of the 21st century.
"I can't do anything about his intelligence, but I can relieve his epilepsy symptoms through acupuncture and medication," said Yu Jiao.
There was a rare hint of joy on Liu Ziqi's calm face. It was good to relieve the symptoms of epilepsy. In recent years, Tao Ge had attacks from time to time. His wife would feel heartbroken every time she saw him having an epileptic seizure. Although his father never said it, Liu Ziqi knew that he was also very sad.
Liu Ziqi said, "I'll have to trouble you to help Tao Ge relieve his epilepsy in the future."
Yu Jiao smiled at him, "Brother, you don't have to be so polite to me. Brother Tao is still waiting for you, you should go and accompany him."
Liu Ziqi touched the ends of her hair and then returned to his own yard.
After he left, the maid Jianjia came forward and asked, "Miss, would you like me to help you rest?"
Yu Jiao shook her head. Seeing the ugly face, Yu Jiao said to Jian Jia, "Help me find a mask. It would be best if it can cover the whole face."
Since Liu Ziqi said that Jianjia and Bailu were both martial artists, he should know where to get the masks commonly used by wandering warriors.
Jianjia agreed, and seeing that Yu Jiao and Yu Fuling seemed to have something private to say, she and Bailu tactfully sent the other maids away, and the two of them went to stand outside the house.
After seeing the maids leave, Yu Fuling's tense nerves finally relaxed a little. She sat down on the chair next to Yu Jiao and asked, "When are we going to look for Qi Zhe?"
"I'm afraid it won't work today. I'll tell my eldest brother tomorrow and we'll go out of the house to find him in Kanjing Hutong." The Liu family will open an ancestral hall for her and include her in the family tree later. Just now, Yu Jiao and Liu Ziqi saw a stage being set up in the mansion on their way here. They must have invited people to watch the show and it will be lively. The guests in the mansion will probably not leave until the evening.
Chou Ge'er had already roughly figured out the whole story. He asked curiously, "Miss, it turns out that you were brought back from outside by the Liu Mansion, and not a daughter born and raised in this mansion? Then where are you originally from?"
Yu Fuling glared at him, "How dare you talk like that? Although Yu Jiao didn't grow up in the Liu Mansion, she is also a proper lady in this mansion, the biological daughter of Liu Ci Fu."
Ugly boy smiled, "Is it okay if I said something wrong? Our young lady has a kind heart, and is no worse than any other young lady in the capital."
Others are gentle and amiable when they smile, but this ugly boy's smile is really creepy. Yu Fuling rubbed her arms and said, "We came from Qingzhou. Yu Jiao saved your life and took you in at the risk of being known by the government. Since you are working with Yu Jiao, you must be loyal and protect your master well."
Yu Fuling would not stay in the capital for long and would go back after the New Year. The Liu family was so huge and unfamiliar. Even though everyone in the mansion was Yu Jiao's relative, Yu Fuling was still a little worried. She had heard what the fool had said just now. The servants of wealthy families were used to flattering the powerful and looking down on the weak. They might look down on Yu Jiao who came back from a small place and bully her.
"Of course, my life will belong to you from now on." The ugly boy said with a smile.
Seeing that he was not serious and was not a trustworthy person at all, Yu Fuling couldn't help but curl her lips.
Yu Jiao was not pretending to be generous in front of Liu Ziqi. She did not take Tao Ge'er's words to heart at all. It was normal for the servants around Madam Liu to have complaints about her. Which mistress would like the child her husband had with someone else? What's more, Madam Liu's attitude towards her was much better than Yu Jiao expected.
Moreover, Madam Liu even agreed to register her under her name and raise her in the mansion as a legitimate daughter. You have to know that in ancient times the distinction between legitimate and illegitimate children was particularly important.
Yu Jiao's creed in life is to clearly distinguish between gratitude and resentment. If someone treats her well, she will repay the kindness. If someone plots to bully her, she will retaliate.
"Chou Ge'er, since you will be wearing a mask in the future, you should give yourself a name, so that people won't recognize you by the name Chou Ge'er." Yu Jiao said to Chou Ge'er.
Chou Ge'er was stunned for a moment. He thought for a long time before he said, "Fortunately, I still remember my last name. Since the scenery in our yard is nice, I'll call myself Li Jing."
Yu Fuling curled her lips slightly. It turned out that someone could name herself so casually. When she thought of people in the village named Goudan or something like that, she realized that the name Li Jing given by Chou Ge'er was quite nice in comparison.
The three of them talked like this for a while, and Yu Jiao and Yu Fuling went to take a look at the wing rooms. The maids also prepared a room for Yu Fuling, which was next to Yu Jiao's main wing room. Chou Ge'er lived with the servants in the courtyard.
Yu Jiao's side room was more exquisitely decorated than the main hall, and all the furnishings in the room were fine items. The folding screen with a stand was the double-sided embroidery that Yu Fuling had been thinking about for a long time but could not figure out the trick. One side was an exquisite picture of mountains, rivers, pine waves, and the other side was a picture of flowers and birds in the spring morning. The embroidery was lifelike, and one could tell it was of great value just by looking at it.
Yu Jiao and Yu Fuling sat in the room for a while. Jianjia knocked on the door and said, "Miss, we have to go to the ancestral hall in half an hour. The young master has prepared clothes and jewelry for you. Let us help you wash and change your clothes."
