Chapter 496: Have you studied nursing?
After hearing what the old lady said, Xu Ziwen felt a little guilty. Seeing Xi Lulu's tears running down her face and looking aggrieved, he hurried to the old lady to apologize.
"This is all due to my poor discipline. Otherwise, that girl wouldn't have touched anything so casually. So, if you have any questions, feel free to blame me. I'm really sorry."
Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment after hearing this. It was obvious that he was apologizing for his beloved disciple, but so what? Xi Lulu had no manners at all. She went to someone else's house and tampered with other people's things. Now she had broken such an expensive vase. Even if they were to compensate, they probably couldn't afford it.
When someone wanted to speak, the old lady waved her hand, showing no intention of blaming anyone.
"It's okay. Children are just curious. Forget it. Maybe things also require fate."
The old lady smiled and had no intention of asking the other party for compensation. Xu Ziwen glanced at Xi Lulu, only to see his apprentice quickly shaking her head at him, still pursing her lips as if she was about to cry. He was helpless and had to call his apprentice over.
"Stop touching other people's things. This is basic courtesy."
"I understand, Master. I promise I won't act rashly again. I was wrong."
Xi Lulu immediately made a promise to the master, which caught the old lady's attention.
"Alright, alright, it's just a vase. Let's sit down and eat. We've prepared a lot of delicious food today."
As soon as the old lady spoke, everyone gathered around, and the servants were sent away by the old lady. Lin Yilan and Huo Juncheng sat next to the old lady.
Xu Ziwen and Xi Lulu were sitting side by side opposite the old lady. The old lady had been talking to Xu Ziwen about economic matters. Lin Yilan suddenly had an idea.
After eating for a while, Lin Yilan took Huo Juncheng and Xi Lulu outside.
"Come on, come on, there are so many fun things here that you don't know. I'll take you there."
Lin Yilan said this and pulled the person out, leaving only the old lady and Xu Ziwen sitting opposite each other.
After the three of them came out, they came to the lawn. There happened to be two swings here. Lin Yilan sat down, and Huo Juncheng walked over and slowly pushed it.
"Let grandma have a good chat with him. Grandma loves Peking Opera the most. She will definitely be very happy today."
In Lin Yilan's opinion, the elderly are now old, and the most important thing is to be happy every day, and other things are not important.
Huo Juncheng knew what she was thinking. He knew that this woman was always very considerate, caring, and filial to her elders. This was also one of the reasons why he liked Lin Yilan.
"Are you full?"
"Of course I'm full. Besides, we're not here to eat today."
Lin Yilan raised her head and blinked her eyes. The dim light reflected in her brown eyes. The more Huo Juncheng looked at her, the happier he felt. He couldn't help but reach out and touch her cheek.
Xi Lulu, who was standing by, watched the two of them being so affectionate with each other, and naturally felt very uncomfortable. It was really rare for Lin Yilan to be loved so much by Huo Juncheng. She gritted her teeth, bent down, and picked up a small stone from the ground.
"What do you think? Should we hire a troupe to perform for Grandma? Maybe she'll like you even more.
"Okay, whatever you say is fine."
As the two were chatting, Xi Lulu couldn't help but feel jealous. She used the stone in her hand to secretly aim at the swing rope made by Lin Yilan.
"To make you happy."
Xi Lulu gnashed her teeth in hatred, but pretended to be calm on the surface. It would be easy for her to break the rope with this stone, so without any hesitation, she used her strength to directly bounce the rope over.
At this time, Lin Yilan and Huo Juncheng did not notice the movement around them. They were just wondering whether the old lady would be particularly happy today.
With a "bang".
“Ouch…”
Lin Yilan fell directly to the ground, her arms and knees falling, and the ground below was covered with dirt. She couldn't help but scream.
Lin Yilan struggled to stand up as waves of pain came from her arms and knees, but she fell to the ground again because of the pain in her knees. Huo Juncheng rushed over in a hurry.
"How is it? What happened? Check where you're hurt."
Huo Juncheng was extremely anxious and immediately hugged Lin Yilan in his arms. He went back to the room with her and put her on the sofa on the second floor. When he looked closely, he found that her arms and knees were bleeding.
"It hurts so much, it's bleeding."
Lin Yilan looked down and couldn't help but frown. How could it be so unfortunate? She could actually fall while sitting on the swing.
He felt so distressed for a moment that he immediately took out the medicine box and carefully wiped Lin Yilan's wound.
"That swing must be very old. No one has ever worked on it, so the rope is a little corroded. It's all my fault. I should have checked it before letting you sit on it. Just wait a moment, it will be fixed soon."
He used tweezers to hold a cotton swab in his slender fingers and gently wiped the wound, causing Lin Yilan to gasp in pain.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I'll be gentler. Please bear with me for a while."
Seeing Lin Yilan in so much pain, he couldn't help but apologize quickly. After treating the wound, he took some medicine and started to wipe it, then took the bandage and wrapped it a few times.
"It's okay, just a minor scratch."
Lin Yilan said this, but she had a question in her mind: how could it be in disrepair after so many years? You know, there are quite a few servants here, and they check everything in the house every day. If it is really about to break down, someone will definitely come to fix it.
"What are you thinking about? Does it still hurt after being bandaged?"
He looked up and saw that Lin Yilan seemed to be thinking about something, so he sat up and held the woman in his arms, asking with great concern.
"It doesn't hurt that much."
Lin Yilan touched the wound that had just been bandaged and found that Huo Juncheng had bandaged it quite well. She couldn't help but take a look.
"You studied nursing, didn't you?"
Huo Juncheng frowned and shook his head, only to see Lin Yilan smile.
"The bandage was done very well and professionally. If I get hurt again, I won't have to go to the hospital. I'll leave it to you."
Lin Yilan smiled slyly, and the man next to her smiled nicely and nodded slightly.
"Ms. Lin, are you okay? Did you get hurt?"
Xi Lulu appeared in front of the two of them at this time, with a panicked look on her face, and hurriedly checked the injuries on Lin Yilan's body.
"It's nothing serious, just a little scrape."
Seeing Xi Lulu so worried, she replied, touching the wound, and the questions that had just come to her mind again.
"I'll have the servants replace the rope. It must have been a long time since it was changed. No one else in the family wants to go there except you, so it's probably been a while."
Huo Juncheng didn't think too much about it. He just thought it was because of Qiu. Unlike Lin Yilan, who was very meticulous and was still thinking about those questions.
