The doctor hadn't come yet, so he alerted his father first. Xi'er was about to fall asleep in a daze when his father arrived. As soon as he tested the temperature on his head, the doctor came too.
The doctor came very quickly. According to Jing Niang, the doctor had arrived at the house a long time ago. He heard that the young master of a guest was suffering from cold and was ill. Xi'er knew it was that boy as soon as he heard it and didn't say much.
Doctor Ren takes the pulse.
"The lady just suffered a slight cold. She probably didn't cover herself with the quilt at night... It'll be fine if she takes some medicine." After saying something about drinking more water and keeping warm, the doctor was sent out.
"Jing Niang!" Mei Ziqing sat beside her daughter's bed and called with a cold face.
"Master—" Jing Niang knelt down with a thump, and Xiaoyu quickly knelt down as well. "Jing Niang should be damned for failing to take good care of the young lady."
"Go and get the twenty big boards first, and then let's talk." No reason is asked, and no explanation is required. If you make a mistake, you will be punished directly. As for whether they want to serve you in the future, let's talk about it later.
"Dad." Xi'er pursed her lips and pulled Mei Ziqing's hair. Mei Ziqing immediately turned around with a smile on her face.
"Dad, you beat Jing Niang and Xiaoyu, who should Xi'er use when you turn around? Are there any other maids and women in this yard that my daughter can get used to..."
"But, they failed to take good care of you." Mei Ziqing said with a warm smile.
"Dad, that's none of their business. It's just my daughter who is willful and doesn't cover herself with a quilt."
"They must be lazy and not alert enough at night..."
"No matter what, dad, don't hit Jing Niang and Xiaoyu. Dad, Xi'er doesn't allow you to hit them..." There was no other way. In the end, I had to resort to cheating, which was also the most effective trick.
"Alas!" Mei Ziqing sighed softly, turned around and said coldly: "That's all, I'll fine each person two months' monthly payment, and I still don't thank you, Miss."
"Thank you, Miss, for your kindness." They both kowtowed, and then kowtowed to Mei Ziqing, then stood up and stood aside. Someone just happened to bring medicine, and they hurriedly went down to brew the medicine.
"Dad, do you want to go there tonight?"
Mei Ziqing patted her gently, "After you take the medicine, go to sleep quickly. It's important to take good care of your body. Don't go to the college tomorrow. Rest at home for a few more days."
"Okay. Then dad, let's go back and rest."
Mei Ziqing finally waited until Xi'er took the medicine before leaving. She was probably really sick, or it was because of the medicine. Not long after taking the medicine, Xi'er felt sleepy and fell asleep soon after.
Speaking of which, it is no wonder that Mei Ziqing is angry. She has never been sick since she was a child. This sudden fever is really a serious illness.
She slept deeply that night, but Jingniang and Xiaoyu didn't dare to close their eyes all night.
