At this time, Ye Qinglan was lying on the bed sickly.
The room was filled with a faint smell of medicine. The medicine smelled bitter, and of course it wasn't very pleasant. Ye Qinglan actually didn't like this smell, but after drinking the medicine for a few days, the smell of medicine lingered on her body, and she had to adapt to it even if she didn't adapt.
Mrs. Xue walked in and asked slightly unhappily: "You have been sick for several days. Why are you not getting better yet, but getting worse?" Mrs. Ma's invitation has been sent, but Ye Qinglan looks like this
, how to take her out to meet people?
Ye Qinglan knew exactly why Mr.
Xue secretly sneered. If it weren't for Ma's crush on Ye Qinglan, she wouldn't have bothered to care about Ye Qinglan's illness. The matter has not been decided yet, so it is better to keep it secret for now. Others don't know, but she knows very well.
This seemingly delicate girl is actually cunning and bold. If she knew her plan, she might do something...
Thinking of this, Mrs.
Send for a doctor."
Ye Qinglan complied meekly, with a low eyebrow and a submissive look. Xue was unable to find trouble even if she wanted to.
Mrs. Xue sat for a while and was about to get up and leave when she saw Hongyun coming to report with a smile: "Madam, the young master is back from the Imperial College."
Mrs. Xue was overjoyed and immediately stood up to greet her. Since the last time, Ye Yuanzhou has not been back to his house for two or three months.
As a patient, Ye Qinglan must of course have the consciousness of being a patient. She still lay lazily in bed, with no intention of going out to greet him.
It's a pity that she doesn't want trouble, but trouble will come to her.
After taking the medicine, she was drowsy when she heard a familiar young voice from the door: "Third sister, why are you sick?" The deep concern and pity in the tone were clearly visible.
When Ruixue saw the visitor, her heart tightened reflexively and she glanced at Ye Qinglan.
Ye Qinglan was closing her eyes to rest. She frowned subconsciously when she heard the voice. She opened her eyes and forced a smile: "Brother, why are you here?"
She was sleeping on the bed. She was only wearing a middle coat, and her long black hair was a little messy. The pretty little face that stood out against her made her look even more charming.
Ye Yuanzhou looked at Ye Qinglan like this and felt a strange throbbing in his heart. He sat down by the bed with gentle eyes: "I heard that you were sick as soon as I came back. So I came here to see you. You have been sick for a few days.
Are you feeling better now?"
As an older brother, it is not too inappropriate to sit next to his sister's bed. But when he knows Ye Yuanzhou's thoughts, such behavior is very inappropriate.
Ye Qinglan responded calmly: "It's much better now. Thank you for your concern, brother." He winked at Ruixue who was standing aside.
Ruixue was really smart and immediately understood the hint in Ye Qinglan's eyes. She moved the chair diligently and placed it next to the bed: "Master, please sit down."
Ye Yuanzhou was unmoved and said with a smile: "No, I'll just sit here and talk to Third Sister." It felt so good to be able to sit by the bed and talk to her. He hadn't been so close to her for a long, long time...
…
After all, Ruixue is just a maid, and Ye Yuanzhou is not happy about it. She has no choice.
Ye Qinglan was unhappy, but her face remained calm. She forced out a timid smile and said, "Brother, I'm so disheveled that I'm really rude. Please step aside for a moment and allow me to get up and dress neatly before talking to you again."
say."
Ye Yuanzhou was intently admiring Ye Qinglan's rare weakness and laziness. He was reluctant to leave easily and said without thinking: "We are brothers and sisters, why should we avoid suspicion."
Ye Qinglan's smile faded, and her eyes were cold with a hint of displeasure: "Brother, are you deliberately trying to embarrass me?" Her pretty face turned cold.
Ruixue watched with fear, fearing that Ye Yuanzhou would fall out. Unexpectedly, the proud and arrogant Ye Yuanzhou could not lose his temper in front of Ye Qinglan. Seeing that Ye Qinglan was unhappy, he immediately softened: "Okay, okay, I'll go out right away.
, don’t be angry.”
Only then did Ye Qinglan smile.
Ye Yuanzhou obediently walked out and waited outside the door. Ye Qinglan quickly got up and got out of bed. While Ruixue was dressing her, she whispered: "Miss, what are we going to do later?" Ye Yuanzhou refused to leave.
I don’t know how to spend my time.
Ye Qinglan lowered her voice and said: "You go to your mother later and tell her that your eldest brother is here." Mr. Xue knew this, so it would be strange not to be angry. He would definitely order someone to call Ye Yuanzhou back.
Ye Qinglan paused and warned again: "By the way, remember to ask Ruomei to come in and serve you."
Ruixue nodded, and after Ye Qinglan was fully dressed, she left the room and respectfully said to Ye Yuanzhou: "Master, please come in and talk."
After Ye Yuanzhou happily entered the house, Ruixue immediately winked at Ruomei. Ruomei understood and quickly entered the house to wait on him.
With Ruomei here, Ye Qinglan calmed down a lot.
Ye Yuanzhou didn't notice that the maid had changed. He only had Ye Qinglan in his eyes, and his eyes fell almost greedily on Ye Qinglan's face: "You lived in Zheng Guogong's mansion for two months before coming back. Why did you get sick as soon as you came back?"
Ye Qinglan secretly sneered in her heart, if it weren't for your ruthless old lady, why would I bother myself? But she responded with a faint smile: "Maybe it's because the weather has turned colder and I suffered some coldness at night."
People who are sick always feel fragile. Ye Qinglan's illness has made her whole body feel better. Ye Yuanzhou looked very distressed and earnestly warned: "You must take medicine regularly and get better soon. Also.
Yes, remember to ask the kitchen to make some nourishing supplements for your body. Look at you, you have lost a lot of weight in just a few days."
Ye Qinglan hummed casually.
Ruomei watched from the side and couldn't help but be secretly surprised. The eldest young master and the young lady were only half-brothers and sisters. How could a legitimate eldest master care so much about his concubine sister? Moreover, paying close attention to the eldest young master's expression, it seemed that
It's also a bit subtle... How can an elder brother look at his own sister with such eyes?
Just as I was thinking about it, there were hurried footsteps at the door again. It was Mrs. Xue who was here again!
Mrs. Xue came in a hurry, her face was not very pretty, and her tone was a bit stiff: "Yuanzhou, Sister Lan is ill and needs to rest in peace. Don't disturb her rest here."
Ye Yuanzhou reluctantly agreed, glanced at Ye Qinglan reluctantly, and then followed Xue.
Xue didn't even look at Ye Qinglan from beginning to end, and led Ye Yuanzhou away with a straight face. Ye Qinglan didn't mind either, but smiled slightly.
Ruomei looked at this scene, and the doubts in her heart became more and more intense. Mrs. Xue came in a hurry just to call Ye Yuanzhou away. Why did Mrs. Xue have to go here in person when she could just order her servants to do whatever she wanted?
A trip? Moreover, Mr. Xue’s expression is also strange...
On this side, Ms.
You still won’t change your nature!”
Ye Yuanzhou responded unreasonably: "She is sick, I just went to see her."
Mrs.
It’s settled…”
Ye Yuanzhou was caught off guard by the unexpected news, and his handsome face suddenly turned pale. His mother was actually planning to get engaged to his third sister...
Mrs. Xue looked at Ye Yuanzhou's panicked expression with cold eyes, and said calmly: "From now on, you will completely give up on me. You are not young anymore, and we should get married by the end of the year at most."
Ye Yuanzhou felt confused and remained silent for a long time before asking: "I don't know which young master my mother fell in love with for my third sister."
Mr.
Ye Yuanzhou's expression changed again. He had many classmates and friends in the Imperial College, many of whom were children of famous families in the capital. He had also heard about the sick Fourth Master Lu...
How could the mother betroth the third sister to such a person?
Ye Yuanzhou was about to open his mouth to intercede for Ye Qinglan, but a thought quickly flashed through his mind. If the Fourth Young Master Lu is really as frail and sick as everyone rumored and will not live long, then after Ye Qinglan marries him, won't he soon become a
A widow? When the time comes, it is not impossible for him, his brother from her natal family, to come forward to take her back to her natal family to live...
Ye Yuanzhou swallowed back the words that came to his lips and said instead: "Since mother has fallen in love with Mr. Lu, she naturally has her reasons."
Mrs. Xue was quite satisfied with his reaction, and most of her anger had dissipated. Just as she was about to say something else, she saw a stewardess running in in a hurry: "Madam, I have a letter from Zhengzhou."
Mr. Xue received the letter with some surprise. Ye Chengli would send a letter from home every month. The last time was half a month ago. Why did the letter from home come so early this time?
Mrs.
Ye Yuanzhou's heart skipped a beat and he quickly asked: "Mother, what did father write in the letter?"
Mrs.
What I still don’t understand is that Ye Qinglan was ill on purpose and delayed for time. Apparently she was waiting for this letter... (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly votes.
