Fu Yunying kept blocking the entrance, preventing Cui Yulu and the others from entering the inner courtyard.
This greatly worried Lin Yun. If anything were to happen to the young master, the barbarians would likely launch a large-scale attack on the border.
However, given Fu Yunying's status, Lin Yun dared not disobey her and had no choice but to enter the inner hall to check on Fu Xiaoyu's condition.
Hopefully, he still has a sliver of clarity, and with his verbal instruction, he can intimidate Fu Yunying and allow Cui Yulu and the others to come in for treatment.
“Miss Fu, you will only harm your brother by doing this. The poison in his body is no joke. If I can find a way to cure him, you’d better let me pass.”
Fu Yunying wouldn't listen to her. She just raised her chin and pointed her nose at her: "Hmph, I don't believe you. You might be able to fool Lin Yun with your tricks, but you're still too green to fool me."
Cui Yulu thought she looked to be only sixteen or seventeen years old; it was hard to tell who was younger.
"Let me say it again, I am not a liar. Since your brother can ask Lin Yun to call me over when he is lucid, it proves that he trusts my medical skills. It's just that you are delaying here and will only harm him."
"What a joke! I would harm my brother. Don't talk nonsense here."
Cui Yulu calculated the time and realized that if they didn't go in soon, the man would probably die. So she glanced at Han Yu'an and told him to stop Fu Yunying.
"Who let you in, you brat? Stop right there!"
She was about to chase after Cui Yulu when Han Yu'an stopped her. She lost her footing and crashed into him, falling to the ground with a thud. She grimaced and cried out in pain.
At this moment, Han Yu'an, with his handsome and elegant appearance, looked down at the girl on the ground, his brows furrowed. Why was this woman making such a fuss?
However, Fu Yunying noticed his frown and said angrily, "Why are you frowning? No one has ever dared to talk back to me like that. Are you that woman's dog, so obedient?"
"I'm not a dog, but the way you bark like that is pretty much like one."
Fu Yunying was speechless. She was about to yell at him, but she immediately shut her mouth when she heard this.
This man actually called me a dog, has he had enough of living?
Han Yu'an was tall and elegant. Although his clothes were not made of expensive materials, they still looked very stylish on him. In addition, his fair skin, jet-black hair, and striking features made Fu Yunying feel her heart flutter for the first time.
"You, you come and help me up."
"You got up on your own after you fell."
Han Yu'an put his hands behind his back, completely ignoring her.
She wasn't like this just now. She was so attentive to Cui Yulu, but she was so fierce to me. I'm no worse than that woman, and I even have a better figure.
Fu Yunying stood up reluctantly, though she had developed a slight interest in this man.
In Linshui Village, Han Quan got off the carriage and went straight to his mother Zhao Guifen's house.
At this moment, Han An was also studying in the house when he saw his younger brother return in a panic, carrying two sets of clothes in his hands, so he went out to greet him.
"What... what's that smell?"
Zhao Guifen also came out of the house. When she saw what her son was holding, she was first curious, and then she covered her nose.
"You little brat, did you poop your pants? Why do you smell so bad?"
"Mother, listen to me first. It's all Cui Yulu's fault next door. She's a witch, you know that? I..."
So Han Quan told Han An and his mother everything about his encounter with Cui Yulu that day. When Zhao Guifen heard that her son had been bullied by a woman, she couldn't stand it.
"You mean this girl is very evil? Should I go find a master to tell us if she's a witch?"
Zhao Guifen was extremely superstitious. She thought of the old Taoist priest who had defied fate to change Han An's destiny and decided that she should visit him soon.
"Mother, you should go and see. I feel like my luck is slipping away lately. Why don't you ask the master if the fate-altering ritual has been broken?"
Han An looked at his mother with a puzzled expression. A few days ago, he even experienced heart palpitations and hadn't been sleeping well these past few days, always dreaming of Han Yu'an grinning maliciously and taking revenge on him.
"Don't be afraid, you two. I've disliked that girl for a long time. I'll go and find out the truth tomorrow. Don't worry too much."
After calming Han An down, Zhao Guifen helped Han Quan onto the carriage and made sure to pack him some extra clothes.
However, the smell of the dirty clothes my son brought back almost made me throw up my lunch.
"That brat really doesn't know her place, daring to mess with me. Now I'll show you what I'm capable of."
Zhao Guifen angrily took the clothes to the riverbank. As soon as she arrived, all the women around smelled the odor and left.
This didn't stump her. After they left, she took the basin and went back to the river.
So a stream of yellow liquid flowed down the river, carrying with it a certain flavor.
"Zhao Guifen, what do you mean? Everyone is washing clothes here, and you actually take those dirty clothes upstream to wash? Who are you trying to disgust?"
A gossip had already told everyone in the village about Han Quan soiling his pants, and now Han Quan was a laughing stock in the village.
"Hmph, my legs are my own, I can wash them wherever I want. And you all better shut your mouths, my son is going to be an official someday, you'll be in for a world of trouble."
"Hmph, with your son's looks, how could he become an official? What a joke."
The woman downstream collected the clothes, picked up the basin, and then left, making a few sarcastic remarks before finally leaving.
Zhao Guifen angrily threw her clothes around, blaming Cui Yulu for all the grievances she had suffered that day.
