After a night's rest, Young Master Ji felt much better. The next day, when Master Ji and others came, he was able to sit up and talk for a while with the help of others. Because of his injuries, he was only wearing a thin piece of clothing. He leaned on the pillow and called out "Grandfather".
Old Master Ji nodded, gently stopped his grandson's movements, and sat down on the edge of the bed: "Okay, you are injured, it's the same if we sit down and talk." He then asked him if he was feeling better today.
Ji Yunting nodded: "Although it hurts a little, it's not serious. It will be gone in a few days."
The grandson was optimistic and open-minded. He was smiling even after being injured like this. Grandpa Ji felt even more satisfied. He patted his grandson on the shoulder and said softly, "Okay! When you get better, I will let you take on the responsibility. Just take good care of your injury."
Ji Yunting responded with a smile. Old Master Ji gave a few more instructions to the servants before coming out. He ran into Su Rong coming back, and Old Master Ji hurriedly saluted Su Rong.
Su Rong had been taking care of things here, and had just gone out to discuss the deployment of defenses. Lord Deng and others had been captured, and Feng Chun had died. Naturally, their vacancies had to be filled by others. Su Rong had the old generals that the Su family had brought to the battlefield in the past. In this situation, it was impossible for him to let the generals from Yunnan take over.
Who knows which official in Yunnan is clean and which one has ulterior motives.
This time, it is a good thing. It is better for them to jump out in a hurry now than to use dirty tricks on the battlefield. They can take advantage of this opportunity to clean up the people in the army and replace the important positions with their own people.
Su Rong was very busy. This time he came here to tell the Ji family. When he saw Old Master Ji bowing, he quickly supported him and said with a smile, "Old Master, please don't be like this. Yun Ting saved my sister, and I am very grateful. Originally, I should take care of her myself to show my sincerity, but now there are many things to do. His Highness has an errand to order, so I can't continue to take care of her. I have to apologize to you."
The Yongding Earl was so polite that Old Master Ji felt relieved. He quickly shook his head to express that the Earl was too polite, and then laughed: "Your Excellency is so polite that we feel embarrassed. It's really not a big deal. He is a man. Can he just stand there and watch the county lady get hurt? Even if he came back intact, I would break his legs. He just did what he should do. Don't flatter him too much."
Mr. Ji is already a shrewd man among shrewd men, so it is naturally impossible for him to keep talking about favors.
Su Rong smiled, spoke to Mr. Ji again, then went in and told Ji Yunting about the matter.
Ji Yunting even said: "Of course it's a big deal. You don't have to accompany me to recover from my injury. This is just a minor injury."
After a while of pleasantries, Su Rong asked Qing Kun to pack up the things, and went to the backyard to see Su Yao first.
He went to Su Yao's yard, but didn't see anyone from Su Yao. As soon as he entered the yard, he saw that everyone in the yard was busy and looked at a loss. He couldn't help but raise his eyebrows: "What's going on? Where's Yaoyao?"
Qingkun didn't find Yancao in the crowd and couldn't help feeling anxious. He didn't know what had happened and was shocked.
Fortunately, not long after, Qing Kun saw an acquaintance, Ruan Xiaojiu, coming over, and he hurriedly called out to her.
Ruan Xiaojiu turned around and saw that it was Su Rong, and hurried over to pay his respects.
Su Rong waved his hand to let it go, frowning and asking, "Why is it so messy? Where is the Yaoyao?"
He was worried that something might have happened. Although all the people connected with Bai Qiye had been arrested, the situation in Yunnan had been so chaotic in recent years. No one knew how many more outrageous things would happen. In this case, he had to be more vigilant.
Ruan Xiaojiu wiped the sweat off his head and said, "The county lady helped to take Niu Niu to see Doctor Shen. Niu Niu woke up from her nap today and suddenly had a high fever and convulsions. Madam Yuan was so scared that she fainted. Fortunately, the county lady was nearby and found out. The county lady took Niu Niu away first, and we stayed to help Madam Yuan look after Kang'er."
Mrs. Yuan had been very well behaved along the way, and indeed helped Su Yao a lot. This time she came to the Ji family because the Ji family had a herbal medicine shop, and Mrs. Yuan was very familiar with the common medicinal herbs used by the army in Yunnan, so she came to the Ji family together.
When something happened to her child, it was inevitable that Su Yao would be concerned.
Su Rong nodded, and seeing Ruan Xiaojiu leading Yuan Kang, he said, "Then you go ahead and do your work. I'll go to see Doctor Shen."
When Su Yao first discovered that Niu Niu was having a convulsion, she was also shocked, but she had taken care of a child before and had more experience than Madam Yuan. Since Cheng Li had been raised through all kinds of hardships since childhood, she had no idea how many times she had dealt with such things. When she saw Niu Niu having a convulsion, Su Yao reacted and called the maid to carry Niu Niu to Doctor Shen.
She ran breathlessly after him and finally arrived at Doctor Shen's yard, but Doctor Shen had already gone to Ji Yunting.
He has been very busy recently. There are also several injured soldiers from Zhaotong who have come to the Ji family and he has to take care of them all. Now he has gone to Ji Yunting, and he will have to go to see Master Bai Qi when the time comes. He can't let this man die, he still has some use for him.
When Mrs. Yuan heard that Doctor Shen was not there, her legs went weak immediately and she fell down on the spot, crying loudly.
Fortunately, Su Yao supported her and calmed her down, saying, "Just look for it again. Fortunately, it's not far away."
At this point, Su Yao deeply hated the Ji family for being too big. The Ji family was like a small city. Su Yao could not care about so much and could only comfort Madam Yuan first. Seeing that the nanny's face was pale from holding the child, he knew that she was also very tired, so he gritted his teeth and said, "I will hold the child, let's go quickly."
Mrs. Yuan was now at a loss. She just followed Su Yao and ran out crying.
Fortunately, as soon as I ran out of the door, I heard Sanjiu calling "County Princess".
Su Yao suddenly felt as if she heard heavenly music. When she looked up and saw Xiao Heng approaching, she didn't know why her heart suddenly dropped back to its original place. She looked up at Xiao Heng, without saying anything, but just said: "Niuniu suddenly had a convulsion..."
Without saying anything else, Xiao Heng immediately took the child in his hands, turned around to look at Su Yao and Madam Yuan, and said, "I'll take the child over first, and you follow behind."
He had been learning martial arts from Taoist Qingyuan since he was a child, and his lightness skills were quite good. His movements were much faster than theirs. It seemed that he had just finished speaking, but Madam Yuan and the others could no longer see him.
Su Yao breathed a sigh of relief, and then comforted Mrs. Yuan: "Don't worry, Doctor Shen will definitely have a way."
