Ci Jinzhi

  Chapter 7 Nurses

  Xin You heard Duan Yunlang finished speaking, and asked with a smile: "Is this what the second cousin wants to say?"

   "Ah, chatting, just chatting. Cousin, take good care of me. I'll come to see you in two days." Duan Yunlang passed over vaguely, and walked away quickly.

  Duan Yunchen waited for Duan Yunlang to come out in the yard, and reminded in a low voice after walking out of Wanqing Residence: "Second brother, you are growing up too, you should be careful when dealing with your cousin."

  Duan Yunlang looked inexplicable: "Sister Qing has such a big incident, shouldn't we come to visit, isn't it appropriate?"

   "Why did my cousin stay in her boudoir for so long?"

  Duan Yunlang subconsciously retorted: "I see that every time my cousin Zhu comes to our house for a short stay, isn't the eldest brother also very close?"

   "Second brother!"

   Seeing Duan Yunchen's face darken, Duan Yunlang hurriedly said: "Understood, understood, brother, pay attention in the future."

   Although Duan Yunlang has always admired this brother who is good at reading, at this moment, he feels a little bit of injustice for his cousin.

  Big Brother clearly treats Cousin Qing and Cousin Zhu differently. Fortunately, Cousin Qing doesn't remember anything, and after hearing what he said today, I shouldn't be surprised by my elder brother.

  Wan Qing stayed in the house, Xin You calmly asked Xiao Lian: "Did you hear what the Second Young Master said?"

  Xiao Lian nodded, momentarily hesitating whether to expose the nonsense of the second young master.

  Xin You embraced the soft pillow, stroking the orchid cluster on the pillow with her fingertips: "Xiao Lian, is Miss Kou the eldest son?"

  The words were so sudden that Xiao Lian opened her mouth and forgot to answer.

  Xin You was not in a hurry to hear the answer, so she put the soft pillow behind her and leaned on it.

"It's nothing, the girl has always listened to her elders—" Xiao Lian paused for a moment when she met those dark eyes, and said in a low voice, "The girl has always been a filial piety for the master and wife, how could she have such thoughts... the old lady said After saying that, the girl fell in love with the young master..."

  Xin You sorted out some information from Xiao Lian's stumbling explanation.

  No matter when Kou Qingqing began to like Duan Yunchen, in short, she and the old lady were willing to have this marriage, but the eldest family was not.

  Is Kou Qingqing's death because of this marriage, or the wealth of the family, or a combination of both?

   "Aside from these, Miss Kou has nothing special to do with others, right?"

   "It's really gone." Xiao Lian said awkwardly.

   "Okay, let's prepare for what we discussed earlier."

  In the night, Xin You suddenly suffered from abdominal pain, and after staying up until dawn, she fell into a coma.

  The whole Wanqingju was in chaos, Jiangshuang and Hanxue were so frightened that they cried: "Sister Xiaolian, what should I do?"

   "Hanxue, you go to the old lady—" Xiao Lian stamped her feet with a pale face, "Forget it, I will go in person, you take care of the girl!"

  The sky was still dark, and the morning breeze had woken up, blowing on the face of the running little maid, bringing a little bit of coolness.

  The old lady's residence is named Ruyi Hall, and the gate of the courtyard has been opened at this time, and the maids and women have started a busy day. Xiao Lian ran in like the wind, panting: "I, I want to see the old lady!"

   "Sister Xiaolian, what's wrong with you?" A maid asked in surprise.

  Xiao Lian grabbed the maidservant's hand: "Our girl is sick, I want to see the old lady!"

  The maid was taken aback by the anxiety on Xiao Lian's face and the strength in her hands, and hurried to report.

   "Cousin girl is sick?" The elderly people woke up early. At this time, the old lady had already washed up and was slowly drinking a glass of warm water. After hearing the maid's report, she hurriedly let Xiao Lian in.

  Xiao Lian thumped and knelt in front of the old lady, her face was full of tears: "Old lady, please save our girl, the girl is not good—"

   "What's wrong with the girl? Didn't she look fine yesterday?" the old lady asked.

  Xiao Lian buried her head low: "The girl was fine during the day, but in the middle of the night she started to suffer from abdominal pain. After staying up like this until dawn, she suddenly fell into a coma..."

   "Bastard, since the stomachache started in the middle of the night, why did you wait until now to report it?" The old lady told the maid to invite the doctor, and walked out.

  Xiao Lian followed closely, and explained with tears: "The girl stopped you from reporting it, saying that she was afraid it would affect your sleep, and we will talk about it at dawn."

  A group of people rushed to Wanqingju, and the old lady saw her pale granddaughter with her eyes closed.

   "Qingqing—" the old lady shouted, holding Xin You's hand.

  That hand was very cold, as if feeling something, she subconsciously grasped the old lady's hand tightly, and a whisper escaped from the girl's mouth: "Nurse—"

  The old lady didn't hear clearly for a moment: "Qingqing, what did you say?"

   "Nurse, nurse—" the unconscious girl called out.

  The old lady looked at Xiaolian sullenly.

  Xiao Lian wiped her eyes, choked up and said: "The girl kept shouting like this after she was in a coma..."

  The old lady's expression kept changing, and when the female doctor hurried over to examine Xin You, she hurriedly asked, "Doctor, how are you?"

  The female doctor deliberated: "The girl's pulse is dangerous, maybe it's caused by the sudden deterioration of the internal injury. I'll prescribe another medicine and try it. If it doesn't work, the old lady should hire another famous doctor."

  The old lady's complexion became more and more ugly. Fortunately, when Xiao Lian carefully poured the boiled medicine into Xin You, the female doctor's pulse was much calmer, but she was still not awake, calling for the nanny from time to time.

  Xiao Lian kowtowed: "Madam, please call Nanny Fang back, the girl woke up when she heard Nanny Fang's voice..."

  The old lady was silent for a while, then nodded.

  As the evening approached, an unremarkable carriage stopped at the Shaoqing Mansion, and a beautiful woman in her forties got out. The wind was blowing under the woman's feet, and she followed the woman who led the way all the way to Wanqingju, when she saw the girl lying on the bed kneeling and rushed towards her: "Girl, girl, wake up, the old slave is here to see you..."

   Strange to say, the girl with her eyes closed seemed to hear a cry, her butterfly-like eyelashes fluttered slightly, and she seemed to be struggling to wake up.

  Xiao Lian was pleasantly surprised: "Nurse Fang, the girl heard it, please call her louder!"

  Nurse Fang nodded hurriedly, her voice became louder.

  The girl's eyelids trembled, and finally opened her eyes.

   "Girl!" Nanny Fang was overjoyed, and firmly held Xin You's hand.

  Xin You blinked, his eyes turned from dazed to clear.

  The old lady came forward: "Qingqing, what do you think?"

   "Grandmother, why are you here?" Xinyou's eyes showed doubts, and from the corner of her eye, Fang Nanny froze suddenly, tears streaming down her eyes, "Nurse, is that you?"

   "It's an old slave, miss, you still remember this old slave..."

  The old lady's eyes darkened when she heard Nanny Fang's cry.

  Qingqing has lost her memory, but she still remembers her wet nurse.

   "Grandma—"

  The old lady put on a gentle expression: "Qingqing, tell me."

  The girl quickly glanced at Nanny Fang, with a timid expression: "Can you... let the nanny stay with me? For some reason, Qingqing only remembers the nanny..."

  The old lady gave Nanny Fang a deep look, and nodded: "Then stay."

   "Thank you, old lady, thank you, old lady." Nanny Fang kowtowed excitedly.

  Xin You looked at Xiao Lian indiscriminately, and slightly bent her lips.
