Ye Zhen promised to treat Shui Yichen's sister, so Shui Yichen invited them to live in the Shui mansion, so that it would be convenient to take care of them. This made Ye Zhen refuse without thinking. She didn't want her two children to live in the Shui mansion. Even she didn't want them to live in the Shui mansion. It was just a medical treatment.
Shui Yichen was obviously very dissatisfied with Ye Zhen's answer. He didn't want to threaten them. After knowing that Ye Zhen was Huang Fuchen's apprentice, he had some confidence in her medical skills. It was just that his sister's illness was unusual and could not be cured in a day or two. He naturally hoped that they could live in the Shui mansion to facilitate the treatment of his sister.
"Miss Ye, do you think this one will go back on his word?" Shui Yichen frowned at Ye Zhen and asked.
"Yes, so be careful." Ye Zhen made no secret of her fear of Shui Yichen.
Shui Yichen showed a sinister smile. "If I really want to go back on my word, do you think you can leave the South Province?"
Ye Zhen froze when she heard this. She had to admit that Shui Yichen was right. The South Province was his territory. Even if she let Zhao Yang live on the ship, as long as Shui Yichen refused to let them go, it would not be easy for them to leave.
"Then I'll have to trouble Master Shui to entertain us." Ye Yiqing said faintly. Shui Yichen was right. The South Province was his territory. It was the same no matter where he lived. Maybe their ship at the port was detained at this time.
"Father?" Ye Zhen didn't expect her father to agree so readily.
Ye Yiqing whispered, "The sooner you get cured, the sooner you can leave."
Shui Yichen didn't care about this man at first. He thought he was just an ordinary attendant. If it weren't for the cold aura he exuded when he mentioned his family, he wouldn't have realized that the father and daughter turned out to be crouching tigers and hidden dragons.
"Yes, Yao Yao, you should listen to your father." Zhao Tianji whispered to Ye Zhen. He also hoped to cure Shui Miaomiao's illness as soon as possible so that they could leave this place as soon as possible.
Ye Zhen glared at him. If it weren't for him, would she be threatened by Shui Yichen?
Knowing that he was in the wrong, Zhao Tianji dared not say anything in front of Ye Zhen.
"Father, I will go to the Shui mansion with Zhao Tianji first. You go to the inn to pick up Zhao Yang and the others." Ye Zhen turned to Ye Yiqing.
"Alright." Ye Yiqing did not even spare a glance at the others, nor did he care about the gratitude in Zhao Tianji's eyes. This kid had better be worth saving, otherwise he would not let him go.
When Shui Yichen heard the father and daughter's words, he secretly heaved a sigh of relief. He was more than willing to let them stay in the Shui Clan without using any forceful methods.
Ye Zhen looked at the Thousand Fragrances Grass Pendant in his hand and said, "Give it back to us first."
In the past, she didn't know that the Thousand Fragrance Grass Pendant was worth so much money. Even if she wanted to go to the Shui Family to treat Shui Miaomiao's illness, she had to get her things back first.
Shui Yichen's eyes darkened as he returned the Thousand Fragrances Grass pendant to Ye Zhen. "Miss Ye, please."
Ye Zhen was too lazy to say anything more and followed Shui Yichen to the Shui Residence.
The mansion here was a little different from the one in the capital. The courtyard of their mansion was tall and decorated with surprising decorations. Most of them were made of brick and wood. The gate was composed of a tripartite door, a wooden door, and a wooden door. As soon as one entered, one would see a huge official hall. The wood, stone, and brick carvings, murals, and stone sceneries were all exquisite and elegant. One could not tell that this was a merchant's home at all.
If this was not the Shui Residence, Ye Zhen really wanted to relax and enjoy the scenery everywhere, but now she was not in the mood to do so.
"Miss Ye, please come this way." Shui Yichen could not wait to take Ye Zhen to find his sister. It would be best if she could cure his sister's illness as soon as possible.
Ye Zhen understood what he meant, so she did not deliberately delay.
Shui Yichen walked a few steps into the backyard and suddenly turned back to look at Zhao Tianji. "Take him away and keep an eye on him."
"What do you mean?" Zhao Tianji shouted. "Do you want to put me under house arrest?"
"If Miaomiao is sad to see you and affects her condition, I will not let you go." Shui Yichen said. He just didn't want Zhao Tianji to appear in front of his sister.
Ye Zhen looked at Zhao Tianji sympathetically. "Then you can go. If I can cure his sister, I will naturally let you out."
"You … you must cure Shui Miaomiao." Zhao Tianji was blocked and could only look at Ye Zhen with aggrieved eyes.
If she could cure her sister, she would naturally do so. If she couldn't, then there was nothing she could do.
Shui Yichen took Ye Zhen to the backyard. Neither of them spoke. Along the way, only their footsteps could be heard. The backyard was very large. In Ye Zhen's opinion, this house was comparable to the Prince of Qin's Mansion where she once lived.
After walking for a long time, Shui Yichen stopped in a delicate and elegant courtyard. His face was heavy, as if he was hesitating about something. He took a deep breath, turned to Ye Zhen and said, "Miss Ye, please."
Ye Zhen felt that he was a little strange. Was he so afraid to see his sick sister?
"What did the previous doctors … say?" Seeing him like this, Ye Zhen remembered that she hadn't asked about Shui Miaomiao's condition. Was she unconscious? What was growing on her body?
"They didn't diagnose it." Shui Yichen whispered, "They couldn't see that Miaomiao was sick."
Ye Zhen was stunned. "They couldn't see that she was sick?"
Hesitation flashed across Shui Yichen's face. He couldn't say that all the doctors said that his sister was not sick. If she was not sick, how could she behave so strangely? She was clearly sick.
"Miss Ye will know after a while." Shui Yichen said and lifted his foot into the yard.
"What do you mean?" Ye Zhen was confused, frowning and keeping up with Shui Yichen's pace.
Before they reached the house, she heard a woman's voice coming from the courtyard. "Hurry up and give me food, I'm starving, I'm starving."
Listening to the voice, it was obviously a young girl. Could it be Shui Yichen's sister? Did he starve his sister and not give her anything to eat?
"Miss, Master said … said that you can't eat anymore." The servant girl's anxious voice came from outside.
Ye Zhen turned to look at Shui Yichen. "You starved your sister?"
The expression on Shui Yichen's face was a little bitter and distressed. "That's because she's sick."
"Can starvation cure diseases?" Ye Zhen raised her eyebrows and asked. She had never heard of any disease that required starvation.
"Miss Ye will know in a while," Shui Yichen whispered, motioning for Ye Zhen to walk into the house with him.
Ye Zhen was puzzled until two maids opened the curtain by the door. She saw a behemoth lying on the bed, surrounded by all kinds of chicken and duck bones left over from the meal. The maids were cleaning them up. Ye Zhen could no longer be described as shocked.
Zhao Tianji said that Shui Miaomiao was too fat. He was simply too polite.
If the huge thing lying on the bed was Shui Miaomiao … it would be too scary.
