In the evening.
Qin Weimo has completed three paintings.
Luo Qingzhou was grinding ink beside her, watching her carefully as she wrote with her bare hands. With just a few strokes, she made the characters and scenery come alive, and he couldn't help but praise her in his heart.
Miss Qin Er is indeed multi-talented.
When Qin Weimo finished applying the last stroke, he put down his pen, looked up at him and smiled, "Brother-in-law, are you secretly thinking in your heart that the second young lady is really multi-talented?"
Luo Qingzhou: “…”
Do you listen to your heart too
Qin Weimo covered her mouth and chuckled, her eyes curved like crescent moons, with waves of light flowing in her eyes, and her appearance and expression were very charming.
Luo Qingzhou turned his head, gently opened the window and took a look outside.
The wind and snow continue.
A chill came through the window frames in the corridor.
Luo Qingzhou quickly closed it, turned around and said, "Second Miss, it's getting dark, so I'll be leaving. If you need any more poems, you can ask Qiu'er to come find me."
Zhu Er couldn't help but said at the door: "Uncle, can't you let Zhu Er go?"
Qiu'er stood aside and covered her mouth with her hands and laughed.
Luo Qingzhou could only say: "I heard that Qiu'er can read and write, and her handwriting is very good. If I write a poem, can Miss Zhu'er write it down?"
Zhu Er: “…”
Qiu'er smiled even more brightly.
"Second Miss, I'll be leaving first. You should have a good rest and remember to eat dinner tonight."
Luo Qingzhou didn't stay any longer and bowed to say goodbye.
Qin Weimo stood up without saying anything.
Luo Qingzhou left the study. Qiu'er, with a shy smile on her face, diligently helped him get his shoes and bent down to help him put on his shoes.
Zhu'er was pouting and sulking aside.
Luo Qingzhou put on his shoes and thanked her, "Thank you, Miss Qiu'er."
Qiu'er smiled and stepped aside with a slight blush on her face.
Luo Qingzhou left the living room and heard Zhu'er muttering behind him: "Didn't the son-in-law just praise you? Look how happy you are. If he asks you to sleep with him, won't you faint with joy? You... um..."
Qiu'er hurriedly covered her mouth, her face flushed with shame, and she looked towards the door anxiously.
Luo Qingzhou pretended not to hear, walked straight out of the corridor and into the yard.
In the study.
The window was gently pushed open.
The girl, in a plain white dress, stood quietly in front of the window, watching his back gradually going away, her eyes gradually becoming empty.
"Cough... cough cough..."
She suddenly started coughing again.
Zhu'er and Qiu'er, who were at the door, heard it and hurried into the room.
When Luo Qingzhou returned to the courtyard, Xiaodie had just returned.
When the little girl went to the kitchen to serve dinner, Luo Qingzhou entered the room, took off his clothes, lifted up his shirt, and looked at the scar on his chest.
The swelling had gone down and the purple color had faded.
But it still hurts a bit when I touch it.
He decided to take revenge on that girl when he went to pay his respects to Miss Qin later.
Treat others the way they have treated you!
It’s not like I haven’t touched it before anyway.
Xiaodie soon came back with a sumptuous dinner.
Today's dinner not only has beef, but also fish.
There was even a bowl of bone soup, which seemed to contain Chinese medicine.
Xiaodie came back panting with the tray and placed it on the table in the living room, saying excitedly, "Sir, there are so many dishes tonight. The kitchen staff said that there will be so many dishes every night from now on, so you can help yourself. If it's not enough, I can get more next time."
Luo Qingzhou looked at the table full of dishes and asked in confusion: "Have you asked what's going on?"
Xiaodie said, "I asked, but the kitchen staff didn't say anything. It's really strange. Before, they would complain if I took a few more pieces of meat, but now they are actively asking me to take more vegetables."
Luo Qingzhou thought to himself: The Second Miss must have known that he was practicing martial arts, so she secretly sent someone to tell the kitchen staff.
He sighed secretly, not knowing how to repay Miss Qin Er.
It seems that I can only spend more time with the girl, tell her more stories and make her happy.
"Xiaodie, sit down and eat together."
"No, sir, I..."
Before she could finish, Luo Qingzhou grabbed her hand and pulled it into his arms, saying, "There are no outsiders here, sit on my lap and eat."
As he said that, he picked up a piece of beef and stuffed it into her little mouth.
"Young Master..."
The little girl was so moved that she burst into tears. She opened her little mouth and ate the beef while mumbling, "This servant... This servant will grow up quickly and serve you well..."
Luo Qingzhou picked up another piece of fish and stuffed it into her bulging little mouth.
"Hmm... Sir... There are too many... I can't fit any more..."
"Swallow it."
The little girl's face turned red and she swallowed it hard.
Luo Qingzhou fed her first, and Fang quickly finished the entire tray of food.
After dinner.
They both took their clothes and went to take a bath in the lake.
When the little girl was scrubbing his body, she accidentally rubbed that spot, and he grimaced in pain.
The little girl thought he was comfortable, so she increased her strength.
After taking a shower, I returned to the house.
Luo Qingzhou changed into clean clothes and went out.
As soon as he arrived at the gate of Lingchan Moon Palace, he saw Bailing and Xia Chan standing there, one on the left and one on the right. When they saw him coming, they all looked at him.
"Sir, the young lady is not here today, so you don't need to go in and pay your respects."
Bai Ling spoke.
Luo Qingzhou saw that her face looked a little serious, and asked, "What happened?"
Bai Ling hesitated for a moment, then said, "The second young lady just fainted. The young lady just passed away, and I don't know when she will be back."
Luo Qingzhou's face changed when he heard this: "I just came back from the second young lady in the evening, how come I suddenly fainted?"
Xia Chan stared at him intently.
Bai Ling sighed and said, "The Second Miss often coughs up blood and then faints. It has happened many times, but recently..."
Luo Qingzhou frowned and said, "I'll go take a look."
Bailing said quickly, "Son-in-law, it's not convenient for you to go now. Many people in the mansion have gone there, and you probably won't be able to get in even if you go. And the young lady has already gone, so there's no need for you to go. Wait until tomorrow morning to go."
Luo Qingzhou stopped, his heart full of worry.
The girl was so fragile that it made people feel distressed. Her face was always so pale, and she was out of breath after just a few steps. Now she vomited blood and fainted. I don’t know...
But when he was with her in the afternoon, she was fine, telling jokes to tease him, and even drawing three pictures.
At that time, although her complexion did not look good, her body seemed fine, and she did not seem to cough at all.
How come at night...
I seemed to hear my mother-in-law say last night that she would cough badly every night.
But last night, when he slept with her, she didn't seem to cough.
Could it be that you won’t cough when you are nervous or happy
Luo Qingzhou had all sorts of thoughts in his mind, but felt helpless.
The Qin family has such great financial resources, but has not been able to help the girl recover for so many years. What else can he do
"Uncle, the young lady told me before she left that if you come, please tell me to go back to bed early and not go anywhere."
Bailing looked at him and said.
Luo Qingzhou was silent for a moment, then nodded and said, "It is indeed not suitable for me to go now, so I will go back."
"Uncle."
Just as he turned to leave, Bailing shouted again.
However, when he looked at her, the girl opened her mouth again, wanting to say something but stopped herself.
"Bai Ling, just tell me what's going on."
Luo Qingzhou looked at her, paused, and added: "I'm not an outsider."
Xia Chan stood aside, still looking at him quietly.
Bai Ling hesitated for a while, then said, "It's okay, son-in-law, you should go back and have some rest. You don't have to worry about the Second Miss, she's here."
Luo Qingzhou glanced at her, said nothing more, and turned away.
The two girls watched his back quickly disappear in the snow in the distance. After a long silence, Bai Lingfang sighed and whispered, "If you tell your son-in-law what the young lady is thinking, I guess... he will feel insulted and might just walk away out of shame and anger."
Xia Chan stood there motionless, looking at the place where the figure disappeared, silent.
Bailing looked at her and whispered, "If the son-in-law really left and ended up on the streets, Chanchan, what about you?"
Xia Chan still did not respond. She stood there quietly for a while before turning around and going into the house.
Return to the room.
She closed the door, then took out the purse from the back of the closet. She looked at it in front of the window for a long time before muttering in a low voice, "Give it all to him... Don't, you'll be hungry..."
The cold wind was howling outside the window and snowflakes were flying.
She recalled the countless cold nights when she had wandered alone on the streets, hungry and cold, walking aimlessly in the dark, and it seemed like there would never be an end...
She is afraid of the dark night, the cold, thunder, and many other things...
But I am more afraid of hunger.
So, she wanted to save money for him.
She could live without him, but she couldn't let him go hungry outside...
Luo Qingzhou returned to the house.
Xiaodie heard the noise and ran out of the room in a hurry, saying in surprise: "Master, why are you back so early today?"
Luo Qingzhou was worried about Miss Qin Er, and said, "Miss Qin Er is not here. I just talked to Bai Ling for a while and came back. You can go and do your work. Sleep in your own room tonight. I may need to practice."
Xiaodie said, "Oh!" and said, "Sir, don't overwork yourself. Remember to rest."
After saying that, he went back to his room obediently.
Ever since she knew that the young master was practicing secretly, she didn't dare to disturb him every night, unless the young master let her in or asked her to sleep with him.
Luo Qingzhou closed the door and sat on the bed for a while before he calmed down and concentrated his mind and soul left his body.
I didn't practice Thunder Fist in the house today.
The soul floated directly onto the roof, penetrated the roof and flew into the air.
Gazing from mid-air, Miss Qin's residence was ablaze with red, and there must be a lot of people gathered there.
He didn't dare to get close, and floated out of the Qin Mansion with a heavy heart, preparing to float towards the Yuanyang Tower.
The senior spirit suddenly sent him a message in his dream, asking him to go to Yuanyang Tower at three o'clock in the morning and wait for him. He didn't know what important matter it was.
He decided to ask the senior spirit tonight whether there was any cure for symptoms like Miss Qin Er's.
Maybe that senior is knowledgeable and capable of saving us.
If the other party really has a way to save Miss Qin Er, he will do his best to agree to the other party's request.
Thinking about things.
Just as I was floating in the air above the alley behind the Qin Mansion's back door, I suddenly saw a figure stealthily opening the back door, looking around, and then walking out.
Then he walked quickly out of the alley.
Judging from her appearance and clothes, she should be a maid.
At this time, all the people in the Qin Mansion gathered around Miss Qin Er. Why did she go out
Even if you go to see another doctor or get medicine, you shouldn't sneak around and use the back door, right
Luo Qingzhou became suspicious and immediately floated down, following her silently.
