In Changsha City, ever since Lu Jianxun went offline, despite the undercurrents surging behind the scenes, the city appears to be peaceful and harmonious on the surface.
Except that Er Yuehong's wife and daughter have been in worsening health in recent days, everything else is fine.
"Mr. Qing, this way please."
I went to the door again. When the servants of the Hong Mansion saw that it was me, they led me inside as if they were familiar with the place. Because of Er Yuehong's previous instructions, they didn't need to go in and report first.
"Mr. Qing is here, please take a seat." Er Yuehong stood up and came over to greet him.
He had heard someone tell him that Qinglian had arrived, so he quickly put down the important things in his hands and rushed over from the study.
"Has Madam's condition improved in recent days?" I found a chair to sit down and began to ask.
My purpose for coming here today is simple: to treat the girl's illness. The system recently issued another task, asking me to help Er Yuehong's wife alleviate some of her pain, but it's only a temporary solution, not a cure.
I couldn't cure his illness, or the poison he'd been poisoned with. I could only alleviate some of his pain. But for Er Yuehong, being able to alleviate his wife's suffering was also a good thing. And so, I became his guest of honor.
"Thanks to the medicine you gave me, the girl has been feeling much better recently." Er Yuehong couldn't help but smile when he thought about how his wife had been able to sleep well in recent days, but there was still a hint of worry between his brows.
"That's great. I'm here today to give you medicine for the next few days." I took out a small porcelain bottle from my sleeve and put it on the table.
"This is the medicine for the next 10 days. Take one pill a day. Just follow the instructions as before."
Er Yuehong gratefully accepted the medicine. After hesitating for a moment, he couldn't help but ask, "Is there really no cure for this girl's illness?"
I shook my head and then nodded.
"I can only alleviate her pain. If you can find a better doctor, maybe there's a way."
Er Yuehong sighed. Ever since the girl fell ill, he had consulted countless skilled doctors, but none of them had been effective. Only Qinglian could help alleviate the girl's pain.
"This is a small gift from me, I hope Mr. Qing will accept it."
Er Yuehong took the banknote from the butler's hand and presented it with both hands.
I didn't refuse. After all, I had spent my points to buy the girl's medicine. Although it wasn't much, it still hurt a little.
"Qinglian!"
Just as I was about to get up and say goodbye, a young man with a bit of hostility between his brows ran in happily.
This person is Chenpi.
"Why are you in such a hurry? I haven't left yet." I pulled out a clean handkerchief from my sleeve and wiped the sweat from his forehead, with a faint smile on the corner of my lips.
"I brought you your favorite osmanthus cake!" Chenpi took out the osmanthus cake in his hand and stuffed it into my hand as if to ask for credit, his eyes shining as if he was expecting me to say something.
I did not disappoint his expectations. Holding the osmanthus cake in one hand, I praised him generously.
"Thank you, Chenpi. I really like the osmanthus cake you gave me. You can come and visit me when you have time."
Chen Pi's eyes darkened for a moment. It was not that he hadn't looked for Qing Lian before! The hateful thing was that those people wouldn't let him in at all. Moreover, they were outnumbered and powerful, so he couldn't break in to find him.
I didn't notice Chen Pi's mood was off, so I continued, "I want to go crabbing tomorrow."
"I'll go with you! Is that okay, Master?" Chenpi immediately became happy and took my hand. I don't know if it was my illusion, but the child seemed to gently scratch the palm of my hand.
It doesn't hurt, just itchy.
"Okay, I'll give you a day off tomorrow. Go play with Mr. Qing."
