Xiao Jun slept for a whole day and night before waking up. Xiao Yao finally woke up at noon on the third day after the insect was removed, after more than two months of sleep.
Her family was afraid that there would be no one to take care of her when she woke up, so at least two people took turns guarding her bedside every day.
The ones guarding here today are Xiao Lang's wife Li Xueyan and Nanny Ruan. The two were whispering about skin care issues, and the unusual movement on the bed quickly caught their attention.
Xiao Yao's voice was slightly hoarse, and she called out weakly, "Master, sister-in-law."
Li Xueyan shouted louder and louder, "Ping'an is awake, Ping'an is awake, Ping'an is really awake."
Nanny Ruan's eyes were already moist. She reached out and touched Xiao Yao's head. She only had a little sweat on it, but it was not hot. Then she turned around and told the maid to find Lin You and inform the masters of each courtyard that the eldest daughter had woken up.
The people at home quickly gathered in Yaoyuan Building. When they arrived, they were told that Lin You was examining Xiao Yao, so they all stayed in the living room and waited for news. Although they were extremely anxious, no one rushed into Xiao Yao's room.
Lin You took the towel handed to him by the medicine boy and wiped his hands. Remembering that there were many people waiting outside, he had to let the medicine boy pack up his things and went to the living room to meet the Xiao family.
Lin You didn't bother to exchange pleasantries with the Xiao family and directly spoke about Xiao Yao's physical condition: "Ping'an's body is fine now. He should be able to recover for the most part after a month of rest. He will be basically fully recovered by the New Year."
"Hurry up and send someone outside to look for the old master and the marquis. Notify all the family members outside. By the way, don't forget Prince Jing's Mansion. Xiying, you go! I am worried about others." Tong Mingyu's face was filled with a big smile, and his body was overflowing with joy. He seemed like a dead tree that had come back to life. Spring has come back again!
"Yes." The maids and guards hurried to their respective destinations with light steps. The servants who left believed that they would receive generous rewards today. Not only them, but everyone who served in the house would receive rewards.
When the Xiao family members outside heard the news, they happily dropped what they were doing and rushed home.
Yun Yichen heard the news on his way home from the Ministry of Personnel. His mind went blank for a long moment, then he suddenly dismounted, grabbed Tang Qianli by the collar, and asked in disbelief, "Are you saying the eldest daughter of the Xiao family has woken up? Is that so?"
Tang Qianli could only nod and agree with his master over and over again. Was it because he hadn't expressed himself clearly, or was it because his master was too surprised? He had asked this three or four times, so why couldn't he confirm it?
Yun Yichen, who was finally sure that he had heard correctly, got back on his horse, shook the reins, shouted "Go!" and rode away.
Now it was Tang Qianli's turn to be stunned. Where's the reward? Even if there's no physical reward, a verbal praise will be fine!
Xiao Anzi also felt that the clouds had finally cleared and the moon was shining. Miss Xiao had woken up, and the prince would forgive him once he was happy! The days of being ignored by the master were too sad. In the future, he must serve carefully and make sure that he only had the prince in his eyes and heart. No, he had to include Miss Xiao in his eyes and heart.
"Let's go! Let's chase the prince together. The prince will definitely not forget to reward you. We all have to rely on the prince's wife today." Xiao Anzi was determined to take advantage of today's good opportunity to ask for the prince's forgiveness, so he ignored others and tried his best to chase Yun Yichen.
The Xiao family's doorman was not surprised at all to see Yun Yichen galloping over. He opened the door, led the horse, and invited him in as if he were serving his own master, without any difference at all.
Yun Yichen nodded in satisfaction and said to Xiao Anzi, who had followed him, "Go get some silver later. There will be rewards for all the servants in the Xiao family." Seeing Xiao Anzi's face full of jealousy and grievance, Yun Yichen laughed and scolded him in a very good mood, "Isn't it the greatest reward for me to not care about your mistakes? If you want silver, then take ten taels and get out of the palace."
Xiao Anzi came up to Yun Yichen and flattered him, "As long as I can serve you, I will be satisfied. The prince gives me two fish every day, which is the greatest reward. I dare not ask for more rewards."
Yun Yichen was in no mood to chat with him here. He wished he could step into Yaoyuan Building and see Xiao Yao who had woken up with his own eyes.
He was filled with joy the moment he stepped into Yaoyuan Building, but when he approached Xiao Yao's room, he hesitated again and didn't have the courage to go in. Yun Yichen didn't know how Xiao Yao would react when she saw him. What if... what if she got angry?
The Xiao family had allowed him to enter the little girl's bedroom some time ago because of special circumstances. Now that she had woken up, everything would be back to normal! Fortunately, they were going to get married in a few months, and by then, no one would be able to stop him from getting close to the little girl.
Xiao Yi, who also stayed in the living room, poured a cup of tea for his brother-in-law. Look at his sweaty head, he must have come running here after hearing the news. Come and have a cup of tea and take a rest!
Afraid that Xiao Yao would know he was sitting outside, Yun Yichen didn't dare to say a word. The room was filled with laughter, but it was impossible to tell which voice was Xiao Yao's.
Xiao Yi couldn't bear to see Yun Yichen's anxious look, so he whispered to him, "My sister has a sore throat and is recovering. My grandfather doesn't allow her to speak, but she should be fine in a couple of days."
So that's how it is. Yun Yichen's frown had just relaxed, then gathered again. Didn't Lin You say the little girl was fine? Why is her throat still hurt? When I get back, I'll ask the imperial physician to prescribe a prescription. The sooner the little girl is healed, the less suffering she'll have to endure.
Xiaofu trotted in and reported, "Madam, someone from Prince Jing's Mansion has sent a message. The princess and the princess asked the young lady to have a good rest today. They will come tomorrow."
"Xiao Fu, go tell the people who come that I'm fine now... Please rest assured, Princess and Princess, there's no need to trouble them to run around." Xiao Yao's slightly hoarse voice came from inside.
She really woke up, and I heard her voice again. How wonderful! Yun Yichen smiled contentedly. Xiao Yi pointed outside, and the two of them walked out one after the other.
There are a few floating clouds in the blue sky, and the cool breeze blows, making people feel refreshed both physically and mentally.
Xiao Yi and Yun Yichen stood side by side under the tree. The rustling sound of the wind blowing through the leaves became the sound of nature in their ears. Xiao Yi sincerely said to Yun Yichen, "Thank you."
"Do we as a family need to be so polite?" Yun Yi did not deny that King Jing had made great efforts. If he had not done what he did, the little girl would not have woken up so quickly even if she had not become Luo Yan's puppet.
I did all this willingly and never thought about asking for anything in return. Even if I had to pay ten or a hundred times more than I have now, I would be happy to do it.
Lin You left his room only after hearing Yun Yichen's arrival. For the past two days, he'd been researching the poisonous insect he'd been keeping in his blood. The more he studied, the more he despised the use of such methods. He had an idea, but needed help, and the best candidate was Yun Yichen, so he called him over.
After listening to the conversation between the two people, Lin You nodded secretly. These two young men are both good, loyal and patient. It would be perfect to let them cooperate with his plan.
Lin You coughed lightly, successfully attracting the attention of the two people. He hooked his finger at them, pointed to his room, and turned and left.
Is it really necessary to be so mysterious? Yun Yichen looked back at Xiao Yao's room reluctantly. If Lin You had something important to do, he wouldn't blame him for ruining the atmosphere. If he was just bored, he would let him know that Prince Yun was not someone to be bullied.
Lin You's room was filled with the faint scent of herbs. When the two people came in, he was drinking tea by himself: "If you want to drink, pour it yourself."
Yun Yichen pursed his lips. He wondered if he had been fooled! Now that he was here, he should listen to what he had to say. It would be best if he said something useful.
After a cup of tea, Lin You asked Yun Yichen: "Do you want to avenge Ping An?"
"Of course I do. You have a way." After this incident, it would be strange for Yun Yichen to feel at ease. Luo Yan's identity is special, and he must not let anything happen to him in Tianyu. He can only catch minions to vent his anger, which makes him very depressed.
"If I can help Ping An get revenge, how are you going to thank me?"
Yun Yichen thought about it, gritted his teeth and made a decision: "Godfather, please accept my respect."
This reaction was not bad and did not disappoint him. In fact, Lin You wanted Xiao Yao to call him godfather, but it was not a good thing to say rashly. He had to take a step-by-step approach and accept Yun Yichen as his adopted son. Is it far from the day when Xiao Yao calls him godfather?
Xiao Yi also came over with interest. How could he miss the opportunity to avenge his sister?
Lin You spread out his palm, revealing a brown pill. "I developed this after I went to Miaojiang. It's specially prepared for the Gu caster. It won't be fatal, but the person will suffer from heart-wrenching pain every month until the end of their life."
Yun Yichen slapped the table and said, "Great." This way he could save Luo Yan's life and let him receive the punishment he deserved. It was worth it to call him godfather.
But when he reached out to take the pill, Lin You pulled his hand back. What was going on? Did he change his mind?
This adopted son was too funny. Before Yun Yichen's face darkened, Lin You said, "I have two small requests. Promise me, and this will be yours."
"You say."
Lin You was afraid that Yun Yichen would refuse, so he placed the pill in his hand before saying, "I have two simple requests. First, once Ping An is well again, I want her to make me a new backpack. This one has been worn out after six or seven years."
"Leave it to me, there will be absolutely no problem. Let Ping'an make another pair of shoes for you. The shoes made by my sister are very comfortable to wear." Xiao Yi patted his chest and guaranteed.
Lin You was very satisfied with the result. He turned to look at Yun Yichen. His next request required his approval. "My second request is, after you two get married, if you give birth to a girl as smart, intelligent, and insightful as Ping An, how about letting her study medicine with me?"
Not very good, so Yun Yichen and Lin You started a heated discussion about this issue. Xiao Yi opened his mouth several times to remind them that the child was not even there! Isn't it too early to discuss this now? Unfortunately, the two of them didn't give him a chance to speak. It seemed that his uncle had no say in this matter, so he just sat on the sidelines and watched the fun!
