"Xiao Huan, that damned girl, how did she attract all these people!" Lu Wushuang broke out in a cold sweat and complained in her heart. These aunts and concubines were famous for their gossipy mouths. They had nothing to do in their residences, so they could only gossip. If they saw this scene in the room, who knew what would happen to her reputation in Mountain Yin City?
Song Qingshu stood up. He had clearly heard the noise outside. "I'll leave first."
"En." Lu Wushuang nodded. Her gaze landed on the basin next to her. She hurriedly said, "Quickly hide the basin. Otherwise, I won't be able to explain later." The servant girl was sent out. She couldn't fetch water in her current state. It was clear that someone had been here. If those people asked, she wouldn't know how to cover up her lie.
Song Qingshu didn't care so much at this time. He pulled off the blindfold and looked around. He found that the basin wasn't easy to hide. After thinking for a while, he could only put it under the bed.
Seeing him pull off the blindfold, Lu Wushuang exclaimed and subconsciously shrunk into the blanket. Song Qingshu rolled his eyes. "I was worried that I wouldn't be able to see and it would be a waste of time. I didn't want to take the chance to see you."
"I know." Lu Wushuang pursed her lips. Seeing that he was about to hide behind the screen, she hurriedly said, "There are many of them. If you hide there, you'll be easily seen."
"Otherwise, where should I hide?" Song Qingshu looked around. The layout of the room was simple. The ceiling wasn't high. He couldn't hide on the beam even if he wanted to. Other than behind the screen, there was only the bottom of the bed. However, he didn't want to go under the bed. It was too unlucky.
Hearing the footsteps of those people, who were about to enter the door in the blink of an eye, Lu Wushuang was extremely nervous. She blurted out, "Quick, get on the bed!"
Song Qingshu was slightly startled. However, he reacted quickly. With a tap of his foot, he jumped onto the bed. Lu Wushuang didn't say anything and covered him with the blanket. At the same time, she put down the bed curtain. Just as she covered Song Qingshu, the servant girl came in with a large group of aunts and concubines.
"Miss, I've found a doctor. When I came back, I happened to run into the people of the mansion. When they learned of your illness, the madams of each branch have come to see you." The maidservant said as soon as she entered the door. It turned out that the reason why she went out for so long was that she didn't know who to look for in the evening. Finally, she went to ask the housekeeper of the mansion. The housekeeper pointed her to Doctor Qiu and informed his master.
After Lu Zai found out about it, because it was the middle of the night, it was not convenient for him to visit his daughter's boudoir, so he instructed his wife to visit. However, Old Madam Tang had treated her so badly before, so he was too embarrassed to come and meet her face to face, so he asked his daughter-in-law, Lu You's wife, to visit. In this deep courtyard, news spread very quickly. The other branches were unwilling to fall behind in terms of etiquette and came to visit one after another. Whether it was true love or an effort to save face, everyone was well aware.
It was Lu You's wife who understood the big picture and knew that a sick person should not be disturbed. If everyone went to visit once in a while, those who weren't sick would be tormented to the point of falling sick. So she decided to wait for everyone to arrive before going over together. That was why she was delayed for so long, otherwise she would have come long ago.
Seeing so many people come in, Lu Wushuang's eyes rolled and almost fainted. She thought that this Xiao Huan really couldn't do anything but spoil things. After today, she would chase her out tomorrow.
When the group of womenfolk came in, they all cried out in alarm. Each and every one of them ran over to the bedside and asked about her well-being, afraid that they couldn't express their concern. Lu Wushuang's heart was in her throat. Although she used the blanket to cover Song Qingshu and put down the bed curtains, if these people were to sit on the bed, how could they not notice him?
Just when she didn't know what to do, fortunately Lu You's wife cleared her throat and stopped the group of people: "Okay, okay, Wushuang is sick now and can't stand your torment. Let Doctor Qiu take her pulse first."
The group of womenfolk resentfully found a place to sit in the room. With so many people in such a small room, if Song Qingshu was hiding behind the screen, he would definitely be discovered.
"Your heart is beating very fast, are you nervous?" Lu Wushuang had just breathed a sigh of relief when she suddenly heard Song Qingshu's voice. She almost cried out in fright. She thought that at this time, everyone was here, if you make a sound, you will kill me!
But the strange thing was that the other people in the room didn't seem to notice at all. Everyone's attention was on Doctor Qiu. Lu Wushuang was puzzled when she heard his voice again: "Don't worry, I am using telepathy, they can't hear you."
With Song Qingshu's warm breath on her neck, it was a little itchy and a little numb at the same time. Lu Wushuang felt a strange feeling in her heart.
"Miss, please stretch out your hand, this old man will check your pulse." Doctor Qiu's words interrupted Lu Wushuang's thoughts. She hurriedly stretched out her hand from under the gauze curtain. The maidservant next to her took a silk handkerchief that had already been prepared and covered her wrist. The doctor checked her pulse through the silk handkerchief and didn't touch her skin at all.
Lu Wushuang really wanted to pull Song Qingshu's ear and let him see how other people diagnose and treat her. She didn't dare to be impolite at all, unlike him just now … … That nonsense.
Not to mention Lu Wushuang's heart was beating wildly at this time, even Song Qingshu, who had been on the battlefield for a long time, was shocked for a while. The bed was full of the sweet fragrance of a young girl. The quilt was not very big. In order to avoid exposure, Song Qingshu could only stick closely behind her. Lu Wushuang only wore underwear. A large area of her snow-white skin was unreservedly exposed in front of him. The touching touch of her skin made Song Qingshu's mouth dry.
Their bodies were so close to each other, how could Lu Wushuang not feel it? Her whole body softened a bit. At the same time, she felt slightly regretful. If she had known this would happen, she wouldn't have let him on the bed.
"Strange, strange …" Doctor Qiu stroked his goatee and muttered to himself with a puzzled expression.
Everyone in the room was shocked when they heard this. Lu You's wife hurriedly asked, "May I ask Doctor Qiu, what is so strange about it?"
Doctor Qiu explained, "Miss Lu's illness must have been a heavy blow recently. Her heart is depressed, causing the evil to enter her body … …"
All the women in the room secretly nodded, thinking that the doctor was indeed a miracle doctor. He actually found the cause of the illness so quickly. Previously, Old Madam Tang ordered her to kneel and kowtow to Song Qingshu. It must have been a heavy blow to the proud and arrogant Lu Wushuang … … Unfortunately, these people didn't know what the real blow to Lu Wushuang was.
Doctor Qiu continued, "Logically speaking, Miss Lu's pulse should be weak and slow with this kind of illness. But now, it's beating extremely fast. Strange, strange!"
Lu You's wife's heart sank. She asked in a trembling voice, "Can the miracle doctor cure it?"
Doctor Qiu frowned slightly, "I'll write a prescription first. If Miss Lu's high fever subsides after taking the medicine, then it'll be no big deal. If the symptoms still don't improve, then … …" Although he didn't finish his sentence, everyone in the room understood what he meant.
Lu Wushuang also heard it clearly. Her heart sank. She thought about how she was going to die at such a young age. She hadn't avenged her parents, and she hadn't even met her sweetheart … … The more she thought about it, the sadder she felt. Tears rolled down her cheeks. She didn't listen to the comforting words of the aunties outside.
"Don't listen to this quack's nonsense. You'll be fine." Just then, Song Qingshu's voice came into her ears again.
Lu Wushuang wanted to tell him that Doctor Qiu was a famous miracle doctor in Shanyin City. How could he be a quack? Even if he was a quack, he should know more than an outsider like him.
Unfortunately, she didn't know how to use telepathy. She couldn't say it out loud, so she could only keep it in her heart.
"If I die, then I die. In any case, Brother Yang has a fiancee. I don't want to live anymore." A thought flashed through Lu Wushuang's mind, and she immediately felt relieved. However, even if she died, she wanted to die in a clean manner. If these people saw Song Qingshu hiding in bed with her disheveled clothes, she wouldn't be able to clear her name even if she jumped into the Yellow River.
Song Qingshu continued, "In fact, the most important thing for your illness is to reduce the fever. In this era, the effects of traditional Chinese medicine are too slow. The effect of reducing the fever may not be very good, but you don't have to worry. I have a way to save you."
Lu Wushuang finally couldn't help it. She reached into the quilt and grabbed his hand. She wrote on his palm with her finger, "What method?"
Song Qingshu pondered for a long time before saying, "If I tell you in advance, then this method will be useless."
Lu Wushuang was confused. Why would it be useless even if he told her? Why was he being so secretive …
As she was wondering, her beautiful face suddenly changed. This was because she felt the other's mouth kiss her neck. His lips were dry and warm, as if they carried a trace of electricity, causing her skin to tremble.
"What are you doing!" Lu Wushuang was embarrassed and angry. She quickly wrote on his palm.
Song QingShu did not reply. Instead, he took the opportunity to hold her hand. His lips slowly moved downwards, and an incomparably gentle kiss fell on every inch of skin on her back like raindrops.
"How could he do this?" Lu Wushuang's mind was blank. She didn't expect this kind of result.
How could this be? He was a famous hero, how could he do such a thing? Lu Wushuang's mind was in a mess, but the strange feeling coming from behind her forced her to believe it.
Although she was a little angry, she had a good impression of him, so she didn't feel any disgust.
After all, Lu Wushuang was an inexperienced girl. How could she be a match for a playboy like Song Qingshu? Under the other's clever technique, it didn't take long for her breathing to become heavy. Her skin turned red and her eyes became misty. This was a clear sign that she was aroused.
"Is he crazy?" Lu Wushuang bit her lips and resisted the shyness coming from her body. She didn't dare make a sound. The room was filled with people. If she was exposed, the consequences would be unimaginable.
At this time, Doctor Qiu had finished writing the prescription. Lu You's wife ordered a maid to go to the residence's pharmacy to brew the medicine. Then, she arranged for Doctor Qiu to rest in the Lu Residence's guest room. In case something happened here, he could come at any time.
Although Doctor Qiu was unwilling, the Lu Clan was the local tyrant of Mountain Yin. Adding on the generous treatment fee, he finally agreed.
