Chapter 120 Claiming to be Brother and Sister



"Okay, I've got that in mind. How's things going with Prince Du?"

She asked again.

Qin Zongzhi pestered her into the room and then slowly spoke, "The doctor in the Li Mansion said that he would be well in three to five days."

Zhao Yunzhu was shocked. She had not expected the Li family doctor to be so reliable. "Your Highness, why don't we move in there for a few days? Otherwise, I'm worried..."

She was worried that something unexpected would happen in the next few days.

Qin Zongzhi also understood her concerns. After a moment's contemplation, he finally agreed. "Okay, I'll do as you say. Since there's nothing important to do these days, we'll just go and stay with Prince Du for a few days."

Zhao Yunzhu felt a little more grateful to Prince An Qin Zongzhi in her heart, "Thank you, Your Highness."

In the evening, Prince An arranged everything and left the Prince An's Mansion through the back door with Zhao Yunzhu.

She brought Hua Momo and Linglong to serve her, and Prince An brought a guard and the doctor from the Li family.

When the carriage reached Liu'er Hutong, Linglong went forward and knocked on the door.

Du Ming'an went to bed early, but his hearing was particularly sharp. He sat up from the bed and listened again.

When you are sure you heard correctly.

He had just put on his coat, stood up and walked to the door.

Du Ming'an didn't say anything. He walked down the corridor, picked up a wooden stick, and walked towards the gate cautiously.

Just wait until he reaches the seat at the gate, "Who!"

"Mr. Du, it's me. My young lady is here to see you."

Linglong spoke in a low voice, and Du Mingan immediately recognized that it was the voice of the maid who followed his sister.

He quickly opened the door, and the smile on his face froze when he saw a group of people outside.

"We were worried about you, brother. We heard you'd recover your memory in two days, so we decided to move in here to be with you."

Zhao Yunzhu explained with a smile.

Du Ming'an let down his guard, said "Oh", and invited the person into the yard.

Although it is a one-entry house, it actually has five rooms.

Nanny Hua took Linglong to clean the house, while Doctor Li squeezed into the same room with Du Mingan.

Zhao Yunzhu and Prince An slept in the east wing, while Hua Momo and Linglong slept next door.

After all this commotion, it was already past midnight before things finally quieted down.

Du Mingan was not used to having another person around him, although the bed was big enough for three or four people to squeeze on it.

But I'm used to sleeping alone, and now that someone suddenly shows up, it still has some impact.

"Mr. Du, it's getting late, go to bed."

Doctor Li urged, "I have to get up early tomorrow morning to treat you!"

Du Ming'an tossed and turned in bed, unable to sleep. He realized that Doctor Li was being disturbed by his noise and felt a pang of guilt. "Doctor Li, I'm sorry, I..."

He didn't know how to explain it, and for some reason, he felt depressed today and couldn't fall asleep.

Especially when he saw his sister and brother-in-law enter the side room together, a trace of jealousy inexplicably rose in his heart.

"I understand. Now that Master Du has recovered his memory, he won't be so depressed anymore."

Doctor Li sighed and advised.

Doctor Li already knew Du Ming'an's identity.

"Doctor Li, I wonder what my brother-in-law is doing in Chang'an? I think his identity is not simple."

Du Mingan recalled the scene when he first met his brother-in-law today.

Doctor Li was stunned and didn't know how to answer. He could only make the excuse that he was sleepy and didn't want to say more.

There was no reason for him to ask any further questions.

The next morning, when Du Ming'an got up, he found his sister sitting in the corridor.

He walked forward and asked, "Sister, isn't your brother-in-law up yet?"

Zhao Yunzhu was lost in thought, and when she heard the voice, she looked back in confusion.

After a moment of shock, she finally remembered where she was. "Brother, he's busy and won't be back until evening. Are you hungry? I've already asked the maid to make breakfast. Please wait a little longer."

Zhao Yunzhu looked towards the kitchen and saw that Doctor Li had gone to prepare medicine for Du Mingan early in the morning.

"Well, okay, I'm not hungry yet." Du Ming'an said this without any intention of leaving. He sat down next to Zhao Yunzhu.

Seeing the obvious stiffness in Zhao Yunzhu's eyes.

He finally asked the question in his heart, "Sister, was it because I treated you badly in the past that you dislike me?"

After a pause, he continued, "No matter what happened in the past, I apologize to you now. After all, if you hadn't found me, I'm afraid I would never know where I came from or whether I still have a family."

Seeing how sincere he was, Zhao Yunzhu felt a little reluctant.

But how could I tell him the truth now? The truth was so cruel.

She didn't know whether Du Ming'an could face such a cruel reality after he recovered his memory.

"Brother, you worry too much."

After much deliberation, she decided that there were some things she wanted to clarify with him first so that he could be mentally prepared.

"Not long after my brother disappeared, I got married, and my mother passed away not long ago."

Zhao Yunzhu stared at Du Mingan closely.

Du Mingan didn't understand. He had no memory of his mother, but when he heard that his mother was gone, a layer of sadness still covered his eyes.

"Why……"

Du Ming'an didn't know what to say for a moment. He was silent for a moment, and finally just sighed.

"Miss, breakfast is ready." Linglong invited everyone to come over for dinner.

Zhao Yunzhu went to the kitchen with Du Mingan.

There was an octagonal table in the middle of the kitchen, with breakfast on it.

"Don't worry about the rules these days. Let's sit down and have dinner together."

Zhao Yunzhu and Du Mingan sat down, then looked at Madam Hua, Linglong and Doctor Li and said.

They were stunned for a moment, but finally sat down.

Doctor Li looked at Du Ming'an and said, "Mr. Du, the medicine is ready. Wait for half a cup of tea after breakfast before you can take the medicine."

"Thank you, Doctor Li."

After breakfast, Aunt Hua and Linglong cleaned up the dishes, while Zhao Yunzhu walked in the yard.

After taking the medicine, Du Ming'an was bored, so he started chopping firewood in the yard.

Zhao Yunzhu sat under the corridor, looking at the young man of the past, who once wore fine clothes and rode a horse, galloping across the battlefield. Now the handsome young man had a hint of sadness in his eyes.

The heroic spirit he once had has long been erased by time, and what remains now is only his ordinary self.

She felt a dull pain in her heart. The days she had imagined were finally coming true, but everything had changed.

Never let down the original mood again.

"Brother, how do you feel after taking Dr. Li's medicine?"

Du Ming'an was sweating profusely, and there was a mountain of firewood in front of him.

Zhao Yunzhu asked Linglong to send the handkerchief over, and then asked him how he felt after taking Doctor Li's medicine today.

Du Ming'an took the handkerchief from Linglong with a smile, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and replied, "I don't feel anything yet. I guess I have to wait for a while."

Zhao Yunzhu nodded.

After taking the medicine for two consecutive days, Du Mingan had no reaction.

Prince An gradually began to doubt the medical skills of Dr. Li.
