......
At dawn, Chen Yao was awakened by Xichun and Yuezhu.
"Miss, the young master asked you to get up and go over to have breakfast. He and his wife will be waiting for you there."
Chen Yao opened her eyes drowsily and asked them what time it was.
Xichun opened her bed curtain and was about to help her up, but when his eyes fell on her swollen lips, he was so shocked that he forgot what he was going to do and cried out briefly, "Ah, Miss, you, your lips..."
Yuezhu quickly dropped what she was holding and rushed over. Like Xichun, she let out a short cry, "Ah, Miss, why are your lips so red and swollen?"
Chen Yao's eyes were a little evasive, and she stroked her lips with her fingertips, pretending to be stupid: "Really? How could it be?"
Xichun said worriedly, "Maybe you were bitten by some bad bug at night? No, I have to find some medicine to apply on you right away. There's no time to waste."
Chen Yao almost laughed out loud, bad bug?
But when I think of Qi Yunxiao's energy, I feel that... he is definitely a bad bug! The kind that will bite people and won't let go.
Yuezhu had already gone to find a small portable mirror they had prepared for their trip, and quickly brought it over and placed it in Chen Yao's hand. "Miss, you can take a look for yourself. It's very swollen. Does it hurt?"
Chen Yao looked at herself in the mirror. It was a little red and swollen, but not very painful, just a little... swollen?
At this moment, the system suddenly whispered, "Host, last night when you were sleeping, I asked you if you wanted to use an item to reduce the swelling, and you said no."
Chen Yao thought about how she was so sleepy when she came back yesterday that she could hardly open her eyes. She just changed her clothes in a hurry and lay down on the bed. She was probably half asleep when she answered the system, and probably didn't hear clearly what it was asking.
"Forget it, since Xichun, Yuezhu and the others have already seen it, let's not use the props now." Chen Yao said to the system.
The system nodded obediently, "Okay, I'll listen to you."
Xichun quickly found some usable medicine and applied some on Shen Yao after she washed up.
"Miss, are you still coming over for breakfast today?" Xichun asked.
She thought that if the young lady didn't want to go, she would go and explain to the eldest young master and the lady, and then bring back breakfast.
Chen Yao replied: "We're going over. You guys can help me with my makeup first. I'll wipe the ointment off my lips and clean them when we're over later. It's no big deal."
Xichun replied yes and continued to dress her.
When they went out, they happened to run into Qi Yunxiao.
When he saw Chen Yao's obviously swollen lips, his usually calm face suddenly changed unpredictably.
"Good morning, Guard Mochuan." Xichun and Yuezhu greeted him with a smile.
"Good morning." Qi Yunxiao couldn't take his eyes off Chen Yao's face, and he felt complicated.
If he had known it would be so obvious, he wouldn't have...
"Well, we'll leave first. You go and get busy." Chen Yao said a little uncomfortably.
As he said that, he quickened his pace with Xichun and Yuezhu.
Qi Yunxiao stood there, watching her hurried away figure, and suddenly laughed.
......
The rest of the journey became more efficient because of Chen Yu's participation.
More than ten days later, they finally arrived in the Jiangnan area.
As soon as they got off the boat, they saw people from their grandparents' family coming to pick them up.
After a brief greeting, people and their luggage got on the carriages.
About a quarter of an hour later, they arrived at the mansion.
As soon as she got off the car, Mrs. Hou didn't care about whether to rest or not, and took Chen Yao and Shen Yu directly to see Old Madam Yu.
Chen Yao also wanted to see her grandmother as soon as possible so that the system could help her find out how to treat her illness. Any help would be appreciated.
Old Madam Yu had already gotten out of bed and was waiting for them in the courtyard, basking in the sun.
"Mom." When the Marquis's wife saw her mother's face had become much older, her eyes instantly turned red.
"Grandma." Shen Yao and Shen Yu both called out.
"You're all here. You must be tired from the journey. Are you hungry? I've had some food prepared. Please enjoy some first."
"Oh Yaoyao, come to grandma quickly and let grandma take a good look at you. It's been a long time since I saw you. Our Yaoyao has grown up to be so beautiful."
Old Madam Yu has a kind face and speaks softly, with a generosity and gentleness that is unique to elders.
"Yu'er seems to have grown taller and looks stronger than a few years ago. That's great."
"Look at your mother. Her eyes are red before she even says a word."
Wiping away her tears with her handkerchief, the Marquis's wife choked up and said, "It's all because I miss you."
Old Madam Yu smiled and clapped her hands, asking them to go inside and talk.
Chen Yao had asked the system to help check Madam Yu's physical condition. After the group entered the house and sat down, the results came out.
"Master Host, Madam Yu suffers from conditions that are more common in the elderly. The conditions I've detected so far include: hypertension, coronary heart disease, and osteoporosis. These conditions are primarily caused by physiological changes that occur with age, and are also influenced by the lifestyle and environment of the time."
"Due to the rules, I'm only allowed to use some props to soothe and alleviate her symptoms, but it's not possible to cure her."
