Bai Lu didn't find it too heavy to hear the good things. She was relieved to hear that the disaster had been resolved. Then she smelled the aroma of medicine in the kitchen and asked me to take her to the kitchen. Yingchun asked if she wanted to follow, but Bai Lu said coldly, "No need."

Since Bailu didn't want to add to her troubles, I tried my best to prevent Yingchun from getting close to her, so as not to increase the burden on Bailu. She was as thin as paper, weak and exhausted, and was afraid of being blown away by the slightest wind. What's more, she had to worry about someone in her heart. So when I helped her pass by Yingchun, I also specifically told Yingchun a few words, asking her to go play with her little mermaid first, so as to prevent her from doing it again, which might kill people.

She was in the wrong this time, so she wasn't so presumptuous. She listened to me and left here for the time being, looking towards this side all the time as she walked.

The two of us came to the kitchen. After she came in, she held her chest, feeling very depressed and collapsed. I had no choice but to hold her in my arms and asked Yunwen to come over to help. We finally brought her to the earthen stove against the wall. She held on forcibly and coughed violently. I asked Yunwen to hold on to her and went outside to find a chair for her to sit down.

"If you have anything to say, just say it out loud. Don't keep it in your heart. But don't get too excited, otherwise you might become weak and get a stitch in the side," I said.

Bai Lu was wiping tears from her eyes and said, "I don't want to see Song Yingchun recently. I heard from Brother Zhou Bo that there are other rooms here. Could you please help me clean up one room? I want to rest and recuperate. Is that ok?"

"Of course, Sister Bailu, we are so grateful for your care for us every day. Now we should do anything for you. Brother Zhou Bo and I have always felt that it is inappropriate to leave you on that cowhide sofa. We should find a better place for you. We are just afraid of tossing you back and forth. Since you mentioned it, we will help you after we feed you the medicine." Yunwen said.

She nodded.

"You are feeling quite resentful towards Song Yingchun now, right?" I asked.

She frowned, and Yunwen quickly shook her head at me, asking me not to continue to provoke her.

"I can't accept it psychologically now. I want to forgive her, but I don't want to from the bottom of my heart. I know she was manipulated by something and lost her mind, but she did that to me after all, without any pity, no scruples, and no hesitation! Besides, I recognize the look in the girl's eyes. She only has that look when she stubbornly wants something, just like when her father didn't let her have that Barbie doll when she was a child and she tried every means to get it, that look was in her eyes." Bai Lu said.

"What look?" I asked.

"It's a look that I must get. As the eldest sister, I understand her, even as I understand anyone. I also want to accept that she is possessed by a demon and her mind is not clear, but I know the truth very well in my heart." Bai Lu said.

"Okay, Sister Bailu, let's not talk about this. You just came back from the gates of hell. Now you need to rest well and not think about these troublesome things. If you don't want to see Yingchun, Zhou Bo and I will try our best not to let her disturb you. Zhou Bo, don't bring up these topics anymore. It's not good for the patient, okay?" Yunwen asked.

I nodded, and Bai Lu closed her eyes and sighed.

I had already filled the water tank with water, and Yunwen was pouring the water into a porcelain pot, putting in herbs, and stewing them on the stove. During this time, Bailu looked at the herbs I brought back in my backpack, and grabbed a few of her own and put them in to stew together. When she felt it was almost done, she asked us to pour it into a porcelain bowl, and she blew it cool and drank it herself.

There are only two rooms downstairs for servants, and they are both connected to the storage room. There are several beds in the rooms. The rooms are a bit crowded and the ventilation is very poor. Therefore, I, He Yunwen, still plan to find a room upstairs for Bai Lu. I took a broom and walked up the wide and large stone steps, removing the cobwebs along the way.

There are four rooms on the second floor, all of which are much better than those downstairs. As for the areas with better ventilation, the two rooms on the side have two windows each. At the end of the corridor on the left is a door. Outside the door is a larger platform that can accommodate about five or six people. Following the platform is the outer staircase of the castle, which leads to the third floor, which is connected to the city wall.

As far as self-cultivation is concerned, this room on the left is definitely the most suitable. It has a platform for ventilation and can be placed separately. The platform is shaded by an eave and can be ventilated. It is not afraid of rain or snow, and the smoke can be discharged without gathering. Therefore, if you boil medicine there, it will also be convenient for nourishing Bai Lu's body.

Therefore, we decided to place Bailu in the room at the farthest end on the left. This room had its own bed. Yunwen and I first lifted up the sofa downstairs for Bailu to rest on for a while. Then we fetched water and took a broom to clean the room. We also took off the carpets, sheets and quilt covers. The room was really nice, with many antique cabinets and desks, all in order. The bed was not small either. It must be a great guest room.

After a simple cleanup, I went to get the animal skins and spread the hay I usually used on them, and let Bai Lu stay on the boat for the time being. I also opened the curtains in the room to let it ventilate. Bai Lu was wearing an animal skin, so I covered herself with it for the time being. Although the musty smell in the room had not yet dissipated, it was more or less enough for her to live in.

Yunwen and I also found a slightly larger iron basin, put charcoal in it, took it to the slow cooker, took out the porcelain jar, and moved all the herbs to the second floor to make it easier to decoct and boil the medicine on a daily basis.

During the whole process, Song Yingchun just watched nearby and didn't dare to come closer. When I was almost done and left Yunwen to take care of Bailu while I was preparing to make some potatoes for dinner, Yingchun came to me and said, "Hey, why did you hide my sister? I won't stab you again. Are you trying to sow discord between me and my sister? You have such a mean mind."

I sneered, busied myself peeling potatoes, and said, "If your sister wanted to see you, could we have instigated her?"

After that, I ignored her. She came up to me, looking a little embarrassed, and said, "So, it's my sister who doesn't want to pay attention to me. Why? If she thinks I did something wrong, I can apologize to her. Why ignore her? Really! Also, are you moving upstairs to avoid me on purpose?"

"Hiding from you? You think you are too important. You don't even know whether you should stay or not. Can you just apologize for what you did? Don't you have any sense? Let me tell you, I will keep you before Bai Lu makes up her mind, in case her condition gets serious. But when she makes up her mind, if she doesn't want to see you again, I will definitely let you go. Anyway, you can live by yourself with that wooden man. Also, I warn you, if you dare to go upstairs alone recently, be careful that I will break your legs." I said.

"Here it comes again, here it comes again. Why are you always targeting me? I hate it most when you become wary of others like this, as if you were keeping a thief at bay." Song Yingchun said dissatisfiedly.

I held the fruit knife, approached her, and said, "If you hadn't come out at the last moment to crush the ash and save me, I would have brought you back and allowed you to stay until now. Otherwise, why would I be on guard against you? In fact, with Bai Lu's current attitude, I should have just chased you and your life away, don't you understand? Don't be shameless. Besides, I'm not on guard against you, but warning you. If you ignore the warning, you will suffer the consequences."

Song Yingchun's face turned pale and she could only nod.

"Get out of here first, take your ugly thing with you," I said.

"Then there's no share for me in these potatoes? Do you want to starve me to death?" Yingchun asked anxiously.

"So what if you starve to death? Why should I raise an ungrateful person for your sister? Oh, yes, I still remember that you would steal food. I will not leave any of these potatoes downstairs. If you want to find food, go find it yourself." I said.

"You!" Song Yingchun frowned angrily.

"If you don't learn to apologize, your sister will never forgive you in this life." I said to her, then pushed her out of the kitchen and closed the door.
