"Which lady is that?" Xiao Jingxi asked.
"It's a young lady surnamed Zhou from the capital."
Mrs. Xu frowned and said, "How can someone who is so good suddenly faint?"
Obviously the guards couldn't answer this question either. After he sent the doctor over, he asked about the situation and hurried back to report to the master.
Although the doctor had already boarded the boat, he gradually started to stop by the shore without the boat.
Xiao Jingxi, as the master, naturally wanted to stay and ask about the situation at this time. He looked at a few people present, and then said to Pei Zhiyan, "I'll ask someone to send Mr. Pei back to the other hall first?"
Pei Zhiyan glanced in the direction of the painting boat: "I'd better wait until I understand the situation." After all, these young ladies came with him, and it would be inappropriate to ignore them.
Xiao Jingxi nodded and looked at the Xu couple again.
Ouyang Shi smiled, and said to Xiao Jingxi in a warm voice: "The painting boat is full of girls' homes, and someone else is ill. I'm afraid it's not appropriate for you to go up and see. Why don't I go up and have a look with Yaoqi?"
Xiao Jingxi couldn't help but glance at Ren Yaoqi when he heard the words.
If Ren Yaoqi was just Miss Ren's family, she would naturally not be able to do this kind of visit. It would be best if there were female relatives in the Yanbei Palace at this time, but unfortunately neither the princess nor Xiao Jinglin came, so if Ren Yaoqi was let go at this time, she would represent the position of the Yanbei Palace.
But Ren Yaoqi hasn't officially married Xiao Jingxi after all, so she might be a little embarrassed to socialize with the ladies in Kyoto by herself, but it would be nice if Mrs. Xu accompanies her.
Seeing Xiao Jingxi's gaze, Ren Yaoqi naturally understood what he and Mrs. Xu meant, knowing that Mrs. Xu had good intentions and wanted to show her prestige, she nodded: "Okay, I and Mr. Look."
Xiao Jingxi listened and smiled back at her.
It didn't take long for the painting boat to dock. After the painting boat stopped, Madam Xu and Ren Yaoqi went up with their maids.
A girl with an unfamiliar face was placed on the couch of the imperial concubine in a rest room of the painting boat, her eyes were closed and her face was pale. The doctor who came on the boat before was instructing the old woman to give her the pills that had just bloomed with water, and the room was filled with a strong pungent smell of medicine.
Ren Yaoqi smelled this smell and felt that this lady should not be a big problem. This kind of strong-smelling medicine is generally used to refresh the brain and drive away the wind.
Yun Qiuchen, Yan Ningshuang and several other young ladies were around, looking at the fainted young lady with concern. Seeing Madam Xu and Ren Yaoqi walking in, they all turned their heads to look over.
Yun Qiuchen hurriedly greeted her: "Madam, Miss Ren, are you here?" She was still looking at Madam Xu, who was obviously dominated by Madam Xu.
But Mrs. Xu glanced at Ren Yaoqi without a trace.
So Ren Yaoqi quickly asked, "What happened? I heard that Miss Zhou suddenly fainted? Does it matter?" When she said this, she immediately became the leader and Mrs. Xu was accompanying the guest.
Yun Qiuchen looked at Ren Yaoqi and Mrs. Xu, and responded with a decent smile: "I heard that on the way here this time, several young ladies contracted the cold and felt unwell. Maybe they haven't been able to get it right. Before, Miss Zhao also I'm not feeling well, I've already gone back."
Ren Yaoqi nodded, took another step forward, and asked the doctor with concern: "Doctor Liu, how is Miss Zhou?"
In fact, Ren Yaoqi didn't know this doctor, but he just asked the guard casually when he came in.
The doctor was from Xiao Jingxi, and he was also a smart man with a clear mind. Seeing that Ren Yaoqi named him, and seeing Madam Xu standing behind her without speaking, he immediately got up and gave a respectful salute, and then Then he got up and said: "Miss Hui, Miss Zhou is just not cured from the cold, and there was some mild wind today, so she fainted, and it's not a big problem. My subordinates have already given her some medicine, and after a while, she will faint. You can wake up, miss, don't worry."
Ren Yaoqi nodded and asked a few more questions in a gentle tone, and the doctor answered them one by one.
The ladies present looked at the doctor of the Yanbei palace calling himself a "subordinate" to Ren Yaoqi, and the doctor was so respectful. I am afraid that it is very popular with the Yanbei Palace, and my mood is a bit complicated. Just now, Doctor Liu had a very casual attitude when facing the eldest Miss Yun family.
Yan Ningshuang's eyes have been on her since Ren Yaoqi came in, just because she was holding the light behind her back, people couldn't see the expression on her face clearly. Ren Yaoqi naturally noticed her sight, but pretended not to notice.
Yun Qiuchen, the eldest young lady of the Yun family, kept a proper smile from beginning to end, but such a perfect smile made it impossible to guess what this eldest young lady was really thinking.
Seeing that she had achieved the meaning, Mrs. Xu asked, "Doctor Liu, do you think Miss Zhou should be sent back now or does she need to rest here for a while and then send it back when she wakes up?"
Dr. Liu said: "Let's wait until you wake up. I'll give her another medicine later, it's better to give her a shot or two."
Mrs. Xu looked at Ren Yaoqi again, Ren Yaoqi nodded and said, "That's fine, we'll wait here."
After a while, the girl Zhou really woke up leisurely, but she was still in a trance, and her face was still not very good-looking. Dr. Liu hurriedly poured another bowl of medicine for him, and then took out a silver needle and stabbed her a few times. It didn't take long for Miss Zhou to look better.
Mrs. Xu and Ren Yaoqi went to see her. Miss Zhou was completely awake. She also said that she contracted a little cold on the way to Yanbei, but she recovered later, so she didn't take it seriously, and she didn't want to relapse today. .
"Speaking of which, several young ladies are really sick. Today, Miss Li and Miss Lu also did not go out due to illness, and now Miss Zhao and Miss Zhou are also sick," a girl said in a low voice.
Hearing this, Yun Qiuchen asked Dr. Liu worriedly: "I heard that this cold will be passed on to her. There are so many young ladies who are sick. Will they be fine if they live in one place?"
When Yun Qiuchen said this, Doctor Liu couldn't help but hesitate. It stands to reason that Yun Qiuchen's worries are also reasonable. These young ladies are already weak. You pass it to me and I will pass it to you, and there will be no end. However, after he glanced at Ren Yaoqi and Mrs. Xu, his answer was still very subtle: "This, if you take proper precautions, it shouldn't be so easy to get infected."
Yan Ningshuang opened her mouth and said, "That means it's possible to infect each other?"
Imperial Physician Liu thought for a while, then nodded.
Yan Ningshuang looked at Ren Yaoqi and said, "In this way, it would be better for us to live separately. After all, the Qianjin Banquet has not yet arrived. If we all fall ill at this moment, I am afraid that we will not be able to fulfill the will of the Empress Dowager. Yes. Miss Ren, what do you think?"
Ren Yaoqi thought for a while, then nodded with a smile: "Miss Yan's concern is very reasonable, I will go back and ask the princess to see if I can make some more arrangements. Ladies and gentlemen came to our Yanbei thousands of miles away, it is ours Your honored guests should be properly accommodated no matter what."
Yan Ningshuang said nothing.
After Miss Zhou rested for a while, and Dr. Liu said that it was all right, Ren Yaoqi and Mrs. Xu arranged for someone to send Miss Zhou and the other ladies off the boat together.
When they got on the carriage, Xiao Jingxi and Pei Zhiqian came over. Although Ren Yaoqi had already sent someone to tell them about the matter, they also asked again in person.
Miss Zhou and the other ladies left first in the carriage, with Yan Ningshuang and Yun Qiuchen walking behind.
Yan Ningshuang looked at Pei Zhiyan, and then at Xiao Jingxi: "It turns out that Young Master Xiao's distinguished guest is Mr. Pei?"
Pei Zhiyan smiled slightly and said casually, "Second Young Master Xiao we met when he went to the capital. It happened that the two old friends were there today, so we got together for a small gathering."
Yan Ningshuang's eyes swept across Ren Yaoqi's face like nothing. She smiled and said with some surprise and curiosity: "Old friend? Is Miss Ren also an old friend? This is a bit surprising."
Pei Zhiyan raised his eyebrows, his smile was gentle and elegant, and his demeanor was elegant: "Miss Ren? Isn't Miss Ren the master? She is just entertaining guests. After all, besides us, there is also Mrs. Xu's female family present on the painting boat. entertain."
Ren Yaoqi couldn't help but pursed his lips and smiled. Although Pei Zhiyan might just want to pull Yan Ningshuang into the water because of Yan Ningshuang's unreasonable words, she felt unhappy so she spoke for her, but she still felt warm in her heart.
Yan Ningshuang seemed to want to ask something else, but Xiao Jingxi said: "The carriage is here, the young ladies should go back to the other courtyard first, and I will ask some doctors to check your pulse later, if you are sick, Get better soon."
Xiao Jingxi's voice was gentle and her face was smiling. Yan Ningshuang glanced at him, wondering if his smile was too good-looking. She blushed, but she was reluctant to look away because of such a glance. Naturally, she was not careful. Think about Xiao Jingxi's words.
When Ren Yaoqi heard it, her face was a little weird. She couldn't help but squinted at Xiao Jingxi, thinking that he was really cursing. Why does it sound so awkward
But thinking about the second son Xiao, who is always graceful and immortal in front of people on weekdays, Ren Yaoqi thinks that he may be thinking too much? Why doesn't Second Young Master Xiao look like someone who would scold girls in public!
Yun Qiuchen said with a smile at this time: "I will go to the Yanbei Palace and explain today's affairs to the princess."
Xiao Jingxi glanced at her, the gentle smile on his face did not change, but with just the right amount of alienation and politeness: "Miss Yun has been working hard today, but you must be tired by being with Miss Yan and the others for so long today. , let's go back and rest first. Madam Xu and Miss Ren can go to see the princess. "
