The two of them walked hand in hand into a low and dark room. The strong smell of medicine was mixed with the smell of burnt and sour things.
Ms. Tian used to be clean and neat, and everyone in Marquis Zhennan's mansion praised her.
But now, because of her relationship with her brother, she ended up in such a situation.
Lin Mengya made up her mind to take Ms. Tian away no matter what.
"As long as Miss Tian and Young Master are well, I'm just an old woman. What else can I ask for? It's not convenient for us to talk in the mansion. I just heard that you've recovered from your illness. Of course, it's good that you've recovered. But I don't know how much suffering you'll have to go through in the future. "
Ms. Tian wiped away her tears. She had a hard life. Her late husband only had a son, and then he passed away.
If it weren't for Madam's help, she and her son would have become bones in the mass grave.
Now, Miss Tian had recovered from her illness, and she had become so beautiful. It was obvious that her life in the mansion was much better than at home.
Immediately, his heart that was hanging in the air was relieved.
God was not blind. At least, Madam, who was so kind, was rewarded in the end.
"Ms. Tian, there are many things that I can't explain clearly with just a few words. In my maternal family, other than my brother and father, only you and Tian Family's brother are my maternal family. Now, I've gained a firm foothold in the mansion, and it's time for you and Brother Tian to enjoy life. Come with me. I'll find the best doctor in the whole Dajin to cure Brother Tian. "
Ms. Tian shook her head vigorously, and there was a bit of determination in her eyes, which were full of vicissitudes of life.
"No, no. The prince is not an ordinary family. You can take Baizhi with you, and she can be regarded as a dowry. I'm an old woman with a burden. How can I go to the prince's mansion and make trouble for you? "
Lin Mengya was angry and distressed at the same time. The people around her who really cared about her didn't want to bring her any trouble. Those who wanted to gain benefits from her were all people who didn't like her since she was a child.
Lin Mengya tried to persuade her, but Ms. Tian still insisted. She didn't want to force her.
She could only change the topic. But now that she knew, she would not let Ms. Tian suffer anymore.
"What kind of illness does Brother Tian have? I want to go and have a look. After all, I'm also a doctor. At least, I can't let Brother Tian's illness continue to be delayed. "
Ms. Tian felt uneasy when she heard that Lin Mengya had learned medical skills.
Just as he was about to say something, a violent cough suddenly came from the room.
The deep coughs carried a tinge of heart-wrenching hoarseness.
Lin Mengya immediately followed the sound and lifted the curtain, which had been washed until it had turned white. The unpleasant smell hit her in the face.
"Brother Tian, are you alright?"
Although Lin Mengya was still a little unfamiliar with him, the good impression she had made when she was young would not be easily changed by the accumulation of time.
The complete change in her soul made her act as a third party when she recalled her body's previous memories.
Therefore, she could see things more clearly. Those people who had appeared in Lin Mengya's life, whether they were hypocritical or sincere, now she could see them more clearly.
The elder brother of the Tian family was actually just like his mother, Mrs. Tian. They were both honest people. He treated Lin Mengya, who shared the same mother as him, as if she was his biological sister.
Therefore, now that he was sick and Ms. Tian was down, Lin Mengya couldn't leave them alone.
Lin Mengya managed to suppress the coughs and tentatively took a few steps forward.
The jet-black medicine pot was still rolling on top of a small stove.
There must be very little firewood in the house, so the stove also served as a heating function.
On the bed, a tattered quilt was piled up. A skinny young man was panting violently.
A skinny hand, like a skeleton, weakly hung down from the bed.
If it weren't for the broken bellows, Lin Mengya would definitely doubt whether the young man on the bed was still alive.
"You … are you … cough, cough … Ya 'er?"
He was gasping for breath, and the sound of him breathing his last breath could be heard.
Lin Mengya took a few steps forward and lifted the hanging gauze curtain. Immediately, a pale and thin face opened weakly and looked at her in surprise.
"Brother Tian, I'm Ya 'er. Do you remember me?"
The memory was like an open floodgate. In an instant, it poured out uncontrollably.
Although the elder brother of the Tian family was not as heroic as her brother, he was simple and dutiful.
His once delicate face had almost become a skeleton because of the torture of illness. His once strong body, which could hold her up to catch cicadas on the tree, had also become extremely weak. It was as if the gentle and honest young man would be taken away by the devil of illness in the next second.
"You … I … I heard what you said to me … Mother … Mother didn't dote on you for nothing … I can die in peace … You … Quickly take mother away … Don't … Don't care about me anymore!"
It was not a long sentence, but it was extraordinarily difficult for the elder brother of the Tian family to say it.
Looking at him, he was so anxious that he struggled to sit up. Lin Mengya immediately reached out to support him, but was stopped by him.
"Go … Go …"
Looking at his flushed face because he sat up, Lin Mengya was full of doubts.
Since she came in just now, the elder brother of the Tian family said something a little strange.
It was like … like he was telling her his last words.
"Don't move. Lie down. I'll take you and mother away. I will find the best doctor for you and let you regain your health. Don't worry, I'm not who I used to be. Brother Tian, believe me! "
But the elder brother of the Tian family's face turned red. Because of his intense emotions, he panted violently, as if he could not breathe.
"Go … Ya 'er … take mother away …"
The elder brother of the Tian family squeezed out this sentence, but he fell down before he could breathe.
Lin Mengya was not in a hurry to check on the elder brother of the Tian family. Instead, in a flash, she appeared outside his bedroom.
Only Baizhi and Ms. Tian were left in the room. Steward Deng, who had been accompanying them all the time, was nowhere to be seen.
"Ms. Tian, come in. Something is wrong. Where's Steward Deng?"
Baizhi, who was reminiscing with Ms. Tian, immediately supported Ms. Tian and followed Lin Mengya into the inner chamber without saying a word.
Being by Lin Mengya's side, she had already developed this tacit understanding and emergency response.
Seeing that her son was not moving at all, Ms. Tian walked over anxiously.
Lin Mengya was very cautious. She took the medicine pot from the stove with a rag and held it in her hand.
"Ya 'er, what are you …"
Seeing that her son had only fainted, Ms. Tian was worried, but also relieved.
But when she saw Lin Mengya standing in front of them cautiously, Ms. Tian had new doubts.
Although that scary mark was gone, that face was still very beautiful. But the sharpness in that pair of beautiful eyes made her nervous involuntarily.
"Has anyone come to see Elder Brother Tian recently?"
Lin Mengya lowered her voice and asked. Ms. Tian immediately thought carefully, and then shook her head firmly.
"No one has come to see Elder Brother Ning. Besides, we just moved here not long ago. Except for going to the mansion a few times, I haven't contacted anyone. Ya 'er, what on earth is going on? "
If Tian Ning's performance just now was very abnormal, then Tian Ning's performance was abnormal. Steward Deng must have seen someone suspicious since he chased after Steward Deng.
Otherwise, Steward Deng would never leave her and Baizhi behind to chase after that person.
No, maybe it was not just one person.
Time ticked by, and Lin Mengya made everyone quiet down.
Finally, there was the sound of footsteps outside.
"Hurry up! Hurry up! Otherwise, if that troublesome steward comes back, all our previous efforts will be in vain! "
The person deliberately lowered his voice, but Lin Mengya could hear the excitement in his tone.
Then, there seemed to be more than one person's footsteps coming in.
When Lin Mengya just came in, she casually locked the door. Therefore, when the person outside wanted to open the door, he encountered a moderate obstacle.
"Tsk, it's so quiet. Does that invalid want to eat alone? Haha, kick the door open. Let's do it together! "
Lin Mengya didn't know what those people meant by eating alone.
But Lin Mengya already understood why Tian Ning was so determined to take Ms. Tian with him just now.
She was a little nervous, but Lin Mengya was no longer the thin and weak girl she used to be.
The medicine pot in her hand was scorching hot.
Whoever was the first to rush out could only say that he was unlucky!
However, what Lin Mengya didn't expect was that Baizhi also calmed down after so much training.
Seeing that Lin Mengya was holding the pot of medicine, he immediately picked up a pair of tongs and picked up a big piece of burning charcoal.
Lin Mengya couldn't help but give her a thumbs-up. Compared to fear, this pair of master and servant actually felt a little excited.
No matter who came, this big gift would definitely be unforgettable for the rest of his life!
Finally, the flimsy door was kicked open.
Lin Mengya instantly opened the lid of the medicine pot and poured it out.
"Ah —"
The hot medicine juice and dregs fell on a strong man in an instant.
However, this was just the beginning.
Lin Mengya threw the medicine pot out with force, only to hear a "gurgle" sound, and no one knew which unlucky man it fell on.
The heat, coupled with the ceramic medicine jar, instantly made the second person who was secretly delighted understand what it meant to be an unexpected disaster.
Of course, this was not the end.
Baizhi seized the opportunity and threw the burning charcoal in her hand with great force.
