"My Lord, you are finally back. Where did you go just now? I have been looking for you for a long time but couldn't find you. Please go and check on the young master. The young master is in trouble!"
"Yes, the young master is pale and still unconscious. Madam and Miss have fainted from crying countless times. If you don't come back soon, I'm afraid there will be no one in charge of the Marquis' Mansion!"
When everyone saw Marquis Changping coming back, they rushed forward as if they had found a life-saving straw.
The Marquis of Changping roared, and everyone finally quieted down.
He walked tremblingly to his son's side, looked up at the doctor, his eyes full of hatred.
"Have you forgotten what you promised me? You would definitely save An'er's life! And now? He's lying unconscious on the bed! If I can't save him, you'll pay for his life!"
His eyes were frightening, and cold sweat broke out on the court doctor's forehead.
If he had not had no money to spend back then, he would never have stayed in the Changping Marquis Mansion. It was like a heavy bomb hanging over his head.
"My Lord, the young master's health was indeed good a few years ago, and I didn't worry too much about him. But for some reason, his condition has deteriorated so much this year. Especially today, he vomited blood for no apparent reason, which caught me off guard. Even if I wanted to treat him, I was unable to do so."
He gritted his teeth and knelt down to apologize.
All his wealth and life were in the Marquis' Mansion, so he had no choice but to accept his fate.
"Hmph! No matter how capable you are, I will definitely protect An'er's life! If anything goes wrong, don't blame me for being rude! I will definitely do what I say and take your life."
"My Lord!"
Marquis Changping roared angrily, which was totally unreasonable. The housekeeper beside him had a headache and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
The doctor ended up like this today, and maybe it will be him next time. He has to think of a way out for himself.
"Don't worry, I'm not putting any pressure on you to make An'er recover. I know An'er's condition. I just need you to protect his life for a while. You don't have to worry about the rest."
"Yes." The doctor was about to give up, but when he heard Marquis Changping change his mind, he agreed.
All he wanted was his life. If he could save it, nothing else would matter.
"Alright, go out and take a good look at the Madam and the Young Lady. They are too weak to survive in the Marquis' Mansion. If they are alright, wake them up. An'er still needs someone to take care of him."
Seeing that everything was arranged, Marquis Changping dismissed everyone.
Only when there was no one in the room did he take off his armor, burst into tears, his eyes red, and chattered incessantly while hugging Kou Yun'an.
"An'er, I didn't want to participate in the Royal War anymore, but if you have any health problems, I will have to give up everything. As long as I can keep you safe, I am willing to do so. I wonder if you will blame me when you wake up?"
His tone was so painful that it made people sad and moved to tears.
I just sat in the room and cried for a long time, and the housekeeper outside also waited for a long time.
Kou Mingxue and the wife of the Marquis of Changping finally woke up and rushed to Kou Yun'an's yard as soon as possible.
"Is the Marquis in there? Let me in to see An'er. How is An'er?" The wife of the Marquis of Changping looked anxious and rushed in despite the housekeeper's obstruction.
The butler tried his best to stop the man.
"Madam, don't worry. The Marquis has already returned and has been guarding the young master for a long time. Judging from the Marquis's appearance, he seems to have something to say to the young master. Why don't you wait outside? The Marquis does not allow anyone to disturb him."
The housekeeper was easy to talk to, but his attitude was extremely firm.
In this family, the person who must not be offended the most is Marquis Changping, and he understands this.
"No! Is there anything that you can't say in front of everyone? I'm going to go in and take a look. Please let me go, or don't blame me for being rude!"
The wife of the Marquis of Changping was very unreasonable and pushed the housekeeper aside.
There was a lot of noise outside, and Marquis Changping was woken up.
He frowned, and as soon as the door opened, everyone became quiet and looked nervous.
"As the Marquis' wife, you are so rude! Do you know that you not only have the responsibility to the Marquis' Mansion, but also An'er! No matter what you do, you shouldn't embarrass An'er! Can't you follow some rules?"
The Marquis of Changping scolded his wife without any reason.
He was already in a bad mood and had many important things to do, and she just handed them to him like this.
"The Marquis is the interesting one. I don't know why he scolded me directly. Does that mean he doesn't need me anymore?"
The wife of the Marquis of Changping was stunned by the scolding, then stood up and struck a pose.
Ever since the news of her father's return came out, she was no longer afraid of the Marquis of Changping.
"you!"
The Marquis of Changping was so angry that his face turned blue. He pointed at her and was unable to speak for a long time.
The wife of the Marquis of Changping just raised her head and looked at him provocatively.
He took a deep breath and suppressed the anger in his heart.
If Du Changming really wants to follow his plan, he has to build good relationships with people around him so that he can take advantage of everyone.
"Hmph! I don't want to argue with you. Go in and take another look at An'er. After you're done, come find me in the study. Bring Mingxue with you. I have something to discuss with you."
After the Marquis of Changping finished speaking, he left the spot, leaving the Marquis of Changping's wife and Kou Mingxue looking at each other in bewilderment.
"What did your father just say? He asked me to go to his study. Isn't the study usually off-limits to others? What serious business could we have to discuss?"
The wife of the Marquis of Changping was full of confusion, but Kou Mingxue just shook her head.
"Mom, I don't know what Dad means, but since he asked us to come over, there must be something important. He came out of Big Brother's room, maybe it's about Big Brother. Why don't we go over and take a look?"
Kou Mingxue spoke cautiously, saying that only if the Marquis of Changping and his wife had a good relationship could she have a more solid backing.
"That's right! Then let's go together later." The wife of Marquis Changping thought for a long time and nodded in agreement.
If you ask who is the most important to her, it is naturally her son.
He has been raised by his side since childhood and is much closer to him than Kou Mingxue.
Marquis Changping had just waited in the study for a while when his wife came with Kou Mingxue.
However, the two of them still had different positions. When they stood in front of each other, they turned their faces away with a look of disgust.
The atmosphere was tense and no one wanted to speak, so Kou Mingxue stepped forward.
"Dad, is there something you want me and Mom to come with you? Mom and I haven't been out for the past few days, so we're sure we haven't caused any trouble for you. Is someone gossiping about you again?"
Kou Mingxue was cautious.
She was obviously the daughter of the Marquis of Changping, but compared with Gu Yunni, she was still inferior.
"Hmph! I don't know if he thinks highly of me, but he keeps complaining every other day. I stay in the house all day. If I knew who's been gossiping behind my back, I'd definitely skin him alive!"
Before the Marquis of Changping could even open his mouth, his wife began to shout.
