Seeing Lin Dan's intentions being trampled on like this, Xue Boyong was furious for some reason, and immediately ordered: "Bring that maid here, I want to ask her what's going on."
Lin Dan poked the herbs in the oiled paper bag with a wooden stick, and sighed: "Forget it, bro, I just started studying medicine, so it's inevitable that she won't believe my medical skills. Brother, I'm going to read, you can sunbathe in the yard for a while. Sun, call me if you have anything." The feeling of being rejected by others was really bad, but she was not angry. Her feelings were sparse and indifferent, and she only cared about the people she should care about, and she had done her best, and she had no intention of taking care of others.
"Okay, let's go." Xue Boyong waved his hand, and when Lin Dan left, he said to the guard, "Drive those two girls away, and in the future, no outsiders will be allowed to come and go in Xiaofeng Pavilion at will."
The guard took the order and left, and at the same time, Fang Fei was proudly showing off to Jasper: "That bitch has just learned medicine for a few days, and she dares to prescribe medicine for me. You ask me every day if I'm ill, you didn't see how stupid she was, and I played around with her, hehe..."
As soon as she finished speaking, several guards cut her hands back and pushed her out of Xiaofeng Pavilion, and even Jasper couldn't escape. The two even cried and begged for mercy, and they were taken to the main courtyard without knowing what they had done.
Hearing the noise, the old lady hurriedly sent someone to see it, and found out that it was the guard of Xiaofeng Pavilion, and immediately became nervous, lest something happen to the eldest grandson, and learned that it was only two maids who had violated his taboo and were kicked out. Well, that's a big relief. She didn't bother to listen to the two maidservants complaining. Since she offended her eldest grandson, she naturally couldn't keep it, so she immediately found Ren Yazi to sell the two of them.
Poor Fangfei and Jasper, they never figured out how they got to this point from beginning to end.
The calmness of the past was restored in Xiaofeng Pavilion, Xue Boyong sat under the warm sun, but his expression was very cold. After pondering for a moment, he said slowly: "Li Zhong, is there someone in the yard who is sick and needs medical treatment? If so, you can call them over, and I have something to tell you."
"Okay, eldest son." Li Zhong walked away, but was stopped by Xue Boyong: "Wait, you carry me back to the room first."
Li Zhong didn't ask much, he would do whatever the master asked him to do.
After about two quarters of an hour, he ran back out of breath, shook his head and said: "Eldest son, no one is sick in our yard, everyone is as strong as a cow." The guards in Xiaofeng Pavilion are all Xue Boyong's personal soldiers. , following him through the bloody storm, his physical fitness is naturally much stronger than ordinary people.
Xue Boyong nodded and said: "If that's the case, then forget it. I want to take a break, you can go out." He lay down on the soft couch by the window as he spoke.
Li Zhong hurried over to close the window for him, and took a thick quilt to cover him. It was early winter, and even if the sun was shining outside, it was still very cold inside. If you didn't cook the fire, you could freeze people into popsicles in just a few moments.
Xue Boyong closed his eyes and waved: "Okay, you can go out."
Li Zhong quietly withdrew, not daring to wait any longer. The eldest son is used to the battlefield, and he is very vigilant. If there is any movement, he will wake up immediately, as if he even sleeps with one eye open. If he sleeps in the inner room, Li Zhong can still make a floor outside, but now he sleeps at the door, Li Zhong can only stay outside.
After a while, the sun was covered by clouds, and the north wind began to blow again. The sudden drop in temperature made Li Zhong shiver. Seeing that the eldest son was sleeping very deeply, he couldn't wake up for a while, so he crept to the ear room to bake a fire and drink tea. Anyway, Lin Dan's study is next to the eldest son. If the eldest son gets up, she will be able to hear it immediately, and she will immediately run to take care of him.
With Lin Dan around, Li Zhong was completely useless, but he didn't know that when he left, Xue Boyong opened the window and ripped off the quilt on his body.
When Li Zhong came back with a pot of hot water, he saw that the eldest son was sitting in the cold wind and flipping through a scroll of military books, his ears and hands were red with cold. He hurriedly put down the kettle and ran to close the window, but was stopped by the eldest son, "Don't close it, my chest is a little tight, I need to breathe."
"Your hands are frozen into ice, why are you breathing?"
"When I was at the border, the weather was colder than this, so it's okay?" Xue Boyong still clamped his wrist and was not allowed to close the window.
Li Zhong couldn't break free, so he glanced at the next door surreptitiously, and said in a low voice, "Eldest son, if Miss Lin comes over later and finds you sitting under the wide window reading and your hands are frostbitten, she will definitely scold you. Yes. If you don't want to be rectified by her, you should hurry up and close the window, and I'll bring you a hand stove, so you can warm up quickly, so as not to be seen by her. "
As soon as Xue Boyong heard the words "Ms. Lin", he let go of his hand subconsciously, letting Li Zhong close the window, and then he felt a little ironic. I'm not afraid of that little girl, I just don't want to listen to her thoughts. Thinking like this, he couldn't help rubbing his brows, and his helpless expression revealed a tenderness and doting that even he himself had not noticed.
After closing the window and lighting two more stoves, the temperature in the room gradually warmed up, making people feel more comfortable. Xue Boyong was a little out of his mind, raising his hand to touch his forehead from time to time.
Li Zhong said worriedly: "Eldest son, what's wrong with you, are you feeling a little sick?"
"Come and feel it, am I a little hot?" Xue Boyong frowned.
Li Zhong covered his forehead with one hand and his forehead with the other, and said happily, "Eldest son, you don't have a fever, you are fine."
"Really?" Xue Boyong's brows were not loosened, but tightened even more. He covered his nose and coughed lightly, and said, "This charcoal fire is a bit choking. Open the window to disperse the smoke and dust."
Li Zhong became more and more confused, squatted down and sniffed repeatedly, then shook his head and said, "The charcoal in Xiaofeng Pavilion was specially sent by the old lady to buy it. It is the most expensive silver bone charcoal on the market, and there will never be smoke. Eldest son, you may have heard it wrong."
"If you want to open the window, you can open the window. Where does all that nonsense come from?" Xue Boyong finally got a little impatient and scolded coldly.
Li Zhong was startled, and hurried to open the window, trying to move the eldest son away from the window, but he refused. The two master and servant were tossing around for a while, and then I heard a movement in the study next door. It seemed that Lin Dan had finished reading the medical book and was packing up his pen, ink, paper and inkstone.
Xue Boyong, who had been refusing to close the window before, took the initiative to close the window, picked up the book of war, and pretended to read it.
Li Zhong glanced at him secretly, and slandered, "You keep making trouble!" You really want Miss Lin to see how you look like you are dying! I knew that you would confess in front of Miss Lin!
Xue Boyong glanced at him coldly, as if he had seen through his mind, and then coughed involuntarily, feeling a little itchy in his throat. Obviously, his body was gradually unwell, but his frowning brows loosened, revealing a very shallow smile.
After a while, Lin Dan packed up and walked in and said, "Brother, I'm going to cook. If you have anything else to eat, you can order it now."
"Let's have another stewed radish with chicken sauce." Xue Boyong stared at the military book in his hand, as if he was very focused.
Lin Dan responded with a smile. When the lunch was ready, he found Li Zhongzheng squatting beside his eldest brother and persuaded anxiously, "Eldest son, you seem to be feverish, I'll go find a doctor for you!"
Xue Boyong grabbed his arm and said in a hoarse voice, "What kind of doctor are you looking for? We have a doctor in Xiaofeng Pavilion." He looked towards the door and waved, "Lin Dan, come and show me."
"Okay." Lin Dan immediately put down the food box and walked over, pinching his elder brother's wrist and taking a fine pulse.
Xue Boyong gave Li Zhong a wink, and the other party obediently stood at the door, daring not to say a word, let alone to tell the eldest son's previous murderous behavior.
Up to now, Li Zhong finally understood what the eldest son was tossing and tossing for. It was those two maids who hurt Lin Dan's heart. He was afraid that Lin Dan's enthusiasm and self-esteem would be hit, and he was trying to make up for her! The eldest son has already doted on Lin Dan to the extent that he doesn't care about his own body. With all the people in the house, he can make him worry so much, I'm afraid it's gone
Li Zhong stared at Lin Dan's back with a complicated expression, then looked at the eldest son's soft eyes, and quickly lowered his head, pretending to be ignorant.
Xue Boyong looked at Lin Dan intently, and waited until she retracted her fingertips before saying, "What's wrong with me?"
"Brother, you've caught a cold, but the condition was discovered early and it's not serious. I'll prescribe some medicine for you. You'll get better soon after drinking it." Lin Dan wrote down a prescription and handed it to Li Zhong, urging: "Hurry up and go. The medicine is taken in the front yard. This medicine has a diffusing function and should be taken after meals. I take care of my elder brother after lunch, and then digest it for half an hour, just enough to drink the medicine. "
Li Zhong did not dare to delay, and went quickly. There is a resident doctor in the General's House, and there is also a small pharmacy, all of which are prepared for the eldest son, and it is very convenient to see a doctor and prescribe medicine.
Lin Dan put the meals on the table one by one, and said softly, "Brother, does your throat hurt? Should I cook you another bowl of porridge?"
"It doesn't hurt, just sit down and eat." Xue Boyong coughed lightly while waving his hands.
Lin Dan saw that his cheeks were a little red, so he put his right hand on his forehead and tested the temperature. Fortunately, it is not very hot, and the heat should be released after drinking the medicine. Because of the worry in her heart, she didn't notice her brother's momentary stiff expression, let alone his dodging eyes.
"Don't you understand that men and women don't kiss each other? Don't you take your hands down?" He reprimanded, but Xue Boyong sat dryly in his place, motionless. In fact, as long as he wanted to, he could immediately tear Lin Dan's hand away, but he didn't do that. I just don't know if he didn't think about it or didn't want to.
"Okay eldest brother, I understand the truth, I will listen to eldest brother." Lin Dan habitually perfunctory, but gently rubbed the eldest brother's frown with his palm. Taking care of a person for a long time, his frowns, smiles, and every move will naturally be seen in her eyes and remembered in her heart.
"Brother, you are sick, and I feel more uncomfortable than you." She put the good meal in front of Xue Boyong, not knowing how her frank words affected the other party.
Xue Boyong stiffened for a while before he said in an extremely hoarse voice, "What nonsense, eat." His cheeks were redder and hotter than before, and there was a bit of embarrassment in his eyes.
