Song Lin came to pick up Song Wan Yue with his carriage as usual, but when he arrived at the entrance of the Yao doctor’s home, he found the door closed, he stopped the carriage and went up to tap on the door, the door was soon opened, the boy inside the home saw it was him and hurried out, “Master Song, our young master is sick at Missy’s home, our master and madam and Yao doctor and Miss Song have all rushed over. Miss Song asked me to tell you not to worry, she will be back in a few days.”
“What happened to your young master?”
“He said he caught a wind chill and developed a high fever.”
These were all the things Song Wangyue had instructed him to do before he left home, and the boy had recited them all afternoon without dropping a single word.
Once he heard that it was a wind chill, Song Lin was relieved and drove the carriage to turn around and go back home, giving a word to his family.
“That boy’s body is too weak too, he should also follow Master Chu and learn martial arts.” Grandma Song said.
“What Mother said is good ……” Xu now treated Gu Yi like her own child and was distressed to hear that he was sick, “Yi’er’s body is too weak, when Yue’er comes back ask her what good recipes she has to tonic his body, we give him more tonic”
Song San Xiao bristled at the side, “The Gu family is a big family, what good remedies for the body are there? The money would be better saved for him to buy Miss Qi some nice jewellery.
……
The night is late and the people are quiet.
Everyone in the Song family village has gone to sleep.
Several men in black entered the village silently, arrived outside the Song family courtyard and were about to leap onto the wall.
As a result, all of them were knocked unconscious from behind and dragged off to the dark side.
Not far outside the Song family’s village, a carriage was parked, with several horses tethered around it, all wrapped in cloth on their hooves, so that not a sound could be heard even in the silence of the night.
Inside the carriage, Master Zhang sat with his eyes closed.
These were all experts, sent by the man to deal with the Song family, although they were a bit too big for their own good, but as long as they were dealt with. He was going to attack them all, but he didn’t expect the deliberately designed frightened horse to let Song Si escape last time. Song Wangyue had grown up in the Gu family again, so he had no way to do it. So, this time, he looked for the Song family who had stayed at the Song family estate.
As for Song Wangyue and the Gu family, he would find another opportunity.
The coachman, a thin, lean man with eyes that shone brightly in the darkness, sat on the front board, holding the reins in his hands as he looked off into the distance.
There were men in black running wildly and coming to a halt by the carriage.
Master Zhang opened his eyes, “All settled ……”
Before the words were finished, the coachman suddenly stormed up, the horse whip in his hand flung towards the man in black, a cold light flashed in the black man’s hand, the horse whip broke a piece and snapped to the ground.
“How back ……”
Master Zhang just probe, the man in black a handful of powder sprinkled over, Master Zhang black eyes, the body fell out of the carriage.
The carriage driver didn’t get attached to the battle, jumped onto the nearest horse, leaned down and cut the rope, hit the horse and fled, the man in black followed suit and also cut the rope to catch up.
Several of the men in black came out of the village carrying the man, threw the unconscious sneak attacker into the Zhang family’s carriage, stuffed Master Zhang into it, one took the driver’s seat, switched the carriage and drove towards the Gu family’s village, while the rest turned around and went back into the village.
The Song family slept soundly, unaware of what was happening outside the courtyard walls.
……
Outside Mo’s village, Gu Hui lay inside the carriage, only a short day later, her person was haggard and haggard, and her eye sockets were deeply sunken.
Mo An carried a bowl of porridge, “Madam, have some, little brother and Bao’er are lucky, they will be fine. ”
Gu Hui grabbed his hand in a deadly grip, her lips wriggling.
Mo An patted her hand gently with his other hand and glanced towards the inside of the other carriage.
Gu Hui’s hand fell.
Mo An scooped up a spoonful of rice and handed it to her, “Eat some, there’s still a lot to do next.”
Inside the other carriage, Master Gu and Madam Gu seemed to have aged many years at once, sitting hunched over the carriage board.
“No, no dissipation, news is, just the best, news.”
Lady Gu’s lips trembled.
Master Gu closed his eyes.
……
Gu Yi fell asleep again. Dr. Yao gently put his hand on his forehead and felt the temperature, then put his hand on his pulse and carefully checked his pulse.
The first thing that happened was that the woman was so frightened that she rushed back a few steps.
Song Wangyue moved her stool, “Xiao Si, were the two maids who died in the Mo family the maids who served Bao’er?”
“Only one was. Eldest Miss originally sent four maids over to serve her, but the young master didn’t like it and threw the others out, leaving her alone, usually cooking for us in the small kitchen.”
“And the other one?”
Xiao Si shook his head, after shaking it he reacted to what Song Wan Yue had said and his eyes widened, “Only two maids have died in the mansion?”
“Yes.”
“How is that possible?”
“I don’t think it’s possible either, if it’s true that the maid in the house contracted smallpox first, she would have spread it to more people, but everyone in Mo’s house except those two maids are all fine, do you think it looks artificial?”
“You mean …… Missy? She, she, she ……”
Xiao Si couldn’t believe it.
“Don’t tell your young master yet.”
Junior froze and nodded.
Bao’er let out a slight hum and Gu Yi popped up and sat up, lifting the covers and getting down to the floor barefoot to go over, placing his hand on his body and patting it gently, “Bao’er is fine, Bao’er will be fine soon.”
Dr. Yao was so shocked that he froze for a moment before coming back to his senses, hastily bending down to pick up his shoes and put them by his feet, “You put on your shoes first.”
Gu Yi looked over in confusion and blinked before he realized that both Dr. Yao and Song Wan Yue were there, his body suddenly lost its strength and he leaned back against Bao’er’s bed.
Yao Dafu was startled and scrambled to hold him up.
“How is Bao’er? Gu Yi asked in a dumb voice.
Bao’er had been feverish since the previous day and always made uncomfortable humming sounds in his lethargy, and he would be awakened even in his sleep.
“Young Master Bao’s fever has gone down a bit, we will feed him a bowl of medicine later, so don’t worry, Young Master.”
Song Wangyue went to the kitchen and brought him medicine first, Gu Yi finished drinking it and lay down again, falling into a solid sleep.
This sleep lasted for three days.
“In his sleep, he saw Dr. Yao’s anxious face as he gave him bowl after bowl of medicine, and the little girl’s face was heavy as she watched over him every moment. He opened his mouth to tell them that he was fine, that he was too tired and wanted to sleep well, but no matter how hard he tried, he could not make a sound, and he was sweating profusely.
“Thank goodness the fever has finally gone down.”
That night Gu Yi drank the medicine and fell asleep, he and Song Wan Yue took turns to be on duty, changing every two hours, and when he was about to give Gu Yi his medicine the next morning, he found that he had developed a high fever and was so frightened that his soul almost flew away.
