MTL - Rebirth of the High Gate Mistress-Chapter 28 Concern leads to chaos

Chapter 28: Concern leads to chaos

At noon, Nanny Xu rushed over again. Jingshu cooked the medicine herself, and she and Nanny Xu fed each other like they did in the morning.

 The old lady took two sets of medicine and slept until night before waking up.

Seeing the old lady wake up, Aunt Xu was so surprised that she shed tears and said, "Thank God, you finally woke up."

 The old lady smiled slightly and said, "It's just an old problem, it's nothing serious."

 Mother Xu choked with sobs and said, "You have been sleeping all day."

Jingshu quickly brought the tea cup, walked to the old lady's bed, and said, "Grandma, drink some tea first to moisten your throat."

 The old lady saw Jing Shu then and asked in confusion: "When did Shu'er come back?"

Nanny Xu looked at Jingshu, then turned to look at the old lady and said with a smile: "Second Madam, I just came home last night. I came to greet you this morning and learned that you were sick, so I have been taking care of you here and never left your side. Bed."

Hearing this, the old lady closed her eyes, sighed slightly and said, "Good child, my grandmother is still strong. It's nothing serious. You should go back and rest quickly."

Jingshu blew the tea and said with a smile: "Grandma was about to chase people away as soon as she woke up, but she is impatient with me."

 The old lady smiled: "I feel sorry for you because you are tired."

"My granddaughter-in-law is so delicate, yet she can get tired so easily." As she said this, she handed the tea to Aunt Xu, and still gently lifted the old lady up as if giving medicine, letting her lean against her.

Mother Xu fed the tea into the old lady's mouth. The old lady took a sip and whispered: "What kind of tea is this? It tastes very refreshing."

Xu Yan replied: "This is made by the second wife for you, and I have been warm in warm water, just waiting for you to wake up and drink."

Jingshu replied: "The green tea I brewed with Sichuan clam and snow pear juice is the best for clearing away heat and eliminating internal heat."

 The old lady patted Jing Shu's hand and said, "Shu'er is interested."

After drinking all the tea, the old lady lay back down again. Her body was still weak and she said to Jingshu: "I'm fine. You don't have to worry. I just feel sleepy. If you want to sleep for a while, you should go and take a rest." .”

Mother Xu asked: "The porridge is still being warmed for you in the small kitchen. You might as well use some before going to bed."

The old lady shook her head slightly and whispered: "I can't eat it."

 Mother Xu tucked the quilt in for the old lady and followed Jing Shu out of the house.

Arrived outside, Nanny Xu said to Jingshu: "Second Madam, you have been tired here for a day, go back and rest first."

Seeing that the old lady had regained consciousness, Jingshu felt a little relieved and said, "Then I'll go back and take a nap for a while, and I'll come and take care of grandma at night."

When Jingshu returned to Qingfeng Garden, Li Ling had not returned yet. While Ziyun helped Jingshu change her clothes, she said, "The prince sent someone back to say that he was busy today and would be home late."

Jingshu said: "Let them bring me a bowl of hot porridge."

After a while, Danzhu brought some porridge and a few side dishes. After Jingshu used them randomly, she told Ziyun, "Call me when it's Haishi and I'll go take a nap first."

Ziyun was surprised and said, "Young lady has been staying there all day. Do you want to go there at night?"

Jingshu replied: "Although grandma has woken up, she is not in good spirits. Aunt Xu and I take turns guarding her."

Ziyun said distressedly: "Then you should take advantage of this opportunity to sleep for a while."

Perhaps with this in mind, Jingshu woke up before Haishi and got up and packed up.

Ziyun heard the noise and hurriedly entered the inner room. Seeing that Jingshu had already stood up, he felt distressed and said: "It's not even time yet, why don't you sleep more, Miss?"

Jingshu replied: "I can't sleep anymore, so let's get over here."

Ziyun was busy helping Jingshu get dressed, and while the two were packing, Li Ling came in. Seeing Jingshu dressed neatly, he asked, "It's so late, where are you going, madam?"

 He went out early in the morning and didn't know about the old lady's illness.

Jingshu replied: "Grandma is not feeling well today. I'll go over and take a look."

Li Ling asked: "Is it serious? Have you asked a doctor?" "Mr. Zhang came to see me and said it was an old problem and nothing serious, so he prescribed medicine."

Hearing what Jing Shu said, Li Ling felt relieved a little and said, "Wait for me, I'll change into my official uniform and we'll go together."

Jingshu had already packed up and replied: "You just pack up, I'll go over first."

With that said, he walked out of the house and headed towards Anxi Hall.

Mother Xu saw Jing Shu and asked, "Why is the Second Madam back again?"

Jingshu said: "I'll keep watch here. Mommy, go and take a nap first."



As soon as Nanny Xu left, Li Ling rushed over. He went into the inner room to look at his grandmother, then turned back to the outer room, looked at Jingshu and said, "I heard from Ziyun that you have been here all day. Go back." Go to sleep, I'll just stay here and watch."

Jingshu replied: "I'm not tired."

Li Ling wanted to speak, but when he saw her dull expression, he swallowed back his words of persuasion.

 The two of them sat on the edge of the cave and the other on a chair, both of them silent.

There was more rustling, and Jingshu looked towards the inner room from time to time to see what the old lady was doing.

Li Ling finally said: "That day, Liang came in to see me for something urgent, so I left in a hurry before I could tell you."

His voice was extremely low, and he raised his eyes to look at Jing Shu apologetically.

Jingshu didn't look at him, glanced at the inner room, and said casually: "I understand."

Li Ling paused and continued: "Before I left, I ordered the woman who was holding the boat to send you back after the rain stopped. I didn't know if you went back to get wet."

Jingshu couldn't help but feel sick in her heart when she mentioned the boatwoman.

 She turned her head and looked at Li Ling.

 The eyes are cold.

After a while, she interrupted him and said: "After the rain stopped, I went back. It's not a big deal. Please don't worry about it, and don't mention it again."

In the middle of what Li Ling said, seeing Jingshu's attitude, he stopped talking, got up and walked to her, looked at her and asked, "Are you angry with me?"

Jingshu sneered and said, "What's there to be angry about?"

Li Ling sat down opposite her, stretched out his hand to hold Jingshu's hand, and said, "Qingluan was in danger of his life that day. I was so anxious that I didn't have time to tell you."

Jingshu slowly pulled out her hand, her face became clear, and she said with a faint smile: "Your Majesty, there is no need to explain, I have already heard about it."

Li Ling frowned slightly and continued: "She was given peanut crumbs in her food. She was allergic to peanuts. Fortunately, she didn't eat much, so she saved her life." He glanced at Jing Shu's expression as he spoke. Seeing that she always had a calm expression on her face, Li Ling continued: "Did you know? If a person is allergic to a food, it will cause various reactions after eating it by mistake. In severe cases, life may be in danger."

He was not a good talker, but he kept talking to her about the seriousness of food allergies, just to arouse her sympathy and make her sympathize and care for Qingluan as much as he did.

 As the saying goes, caring leads to chaos.

She was the one who was close to his heart. When she was hurt even a little bit, he lost his sense of control and left her alone to suffer the insult of that filthy woman for no reason.

Does he still expect her to care about his sweetheart like he does?

 She is not a Bodhisattva.

What does the life and death of his beloved have to do with her?

Jingshu patiently listened to Li Ling's words, her face still expressionless, and she only replied in a perfunctory tone: "I'll go in and see grandma."
