After Chai Yan and Jimo Qiao jumped over the wall and left, the chaotic situation in the Gan family quickly calmed down.
Returning to the main hall, Gan Feng said: "Sister Xian, please don't let strangers in so easily in the future. Do you understand?"
Gan Mengxian looked apologetic and nodded: "I know, Brother Feng, I won't do it next time."
Gan Feng comforted him and said, "Don't get me wrong, sister Xian. I'm not blaming you, I'm just worried about you because you have such a good temper and trust people too easily."
"Yeah." Gan Mengxian nodded obediently.
Then, Gan Feng sat on a chair and started thinking.
Gan Mengxian was a little curious and asked, "Brother Feng, what are you thinking about?"
Gan Feng frowned slightly and replied: "Mei Xian, what do you think the purpose of those two people was to sneak into our house just now?"
"Purpose..." Gan Mengxian thought for a moment, shook her head and said, "I don't know, what does Brother Feng think?"
Gan Feng looked at Gan Mengxian and said, "Do you think they were sent by our business rivals? To inquire about my father's condition?"
Gan Mengxian was a little confused and asked: "But why did they do this? Many doctors in the city have seen my father's illness. If they want to know, they can directly bribe those doctors and ask them. Will it be better soon? Why spend so much money?
Where is Zhou Zhang sneaking in?"
Gan Feng said: "What he said is correct, but maybe the other party wants to see his father's condition with his own eyes? Or..."
Speaking of this, Gan Feng suddenly stopped.
"Brother Feng, or what is it?" Gan Mengxian asked curiously.
Gan Feng's expression suddenly became serious, and he lowered his voice and said, "Or maybe they want to harm my father?"
Gan Mengxian was shocked when she heard this, her heartbeat suddenly accelerated a lot, and she said in a trembling voice: "Then...didn't I almost...almost lure a wolf into the house just now?"
"No, no, no, I should be overthinking it. Judging from the martial arts of those two people, they are definitely not ordinary people. If you want to harm your father, why do you need to go through such a big detour?" Gan Feng immediately overturned his own opinion.
guess.
Gan Mengxian felt the same way. You could easily jump over such a high wall, so entering the inner courtyard was not an easy task.
"Brother Feng, do you think we really misunderstood them?" Gan Mengxian said.
Gan Feng immediately denied it and said: "Impossible!"
Gan Feng immediately added: "As for the fact that she is pretending to be a Taoist, I don't believe that she is Lord Jimo's daughter. She must be a villain with ulterior motives!"
Just as Gan Mengxian opened her mouth to speak, maid Xiaoyu came to the door of the hall and said: "Miss, the master is awake. He just woke up..."
When Gan Mengxian heard this, she couldn't sit still. She hurriedly got up and walked out of the hall: "Brother Feng, let's not talk about it for now. I'm going to see how dad is doing..."
Gan Feng also stood up and said, "I'll go too."
Gan Mengxian said: "No need, Brother Feng, you can go and do other things. The miracle doctor cannot be without you, so leave this to me."
"Thank you for your hard work, Sister Xian." Gan Feng thanked him and watched Gan Mengxian walk away.
Then, Gan Feng called Hong Bao to him and gave a stern order: "From now on, increase the manpower, and I must keep a close eye on everything around the yard. If Xiaoxiao's gang is allowed to break in again, you are the only one asking
!”
"Yes, Master." Hong Bao hurriedly clasped his fists and accepted the order.
----------------------------------
On the other side, Gan Mengxian and Xiaoyu quickly returned to the inner courtyard.
When I entered the room, I saw that Mr. Gan had indeed woken up, but his consciousness was not very clear. He looked like he was in a state of half-consciousness and half-consciousness.
Mr. Gan has been tortured by illness these days. His face and body have become thinner and thinner, and he is no longer the same person as before.
Gan Mengxian said hurriedly: "Xiaoyu, hurry up and bring a bowl of porridge over."
"Okay, miss." Xiaoyu went immediately.
Gan Mengxian sat down by the bed, picked up the handkerchief on the bedside, wiped her father's cheeks, and asked, "Dad, I'm Xian'er, how do you feel?"
Mr. Gan lowered his eyelids and replied after a while: "It's Xian'er who's here..."
When Mr. Gan spoke, his eyes did not shift to Gan Mengxian's face, but continued to look at the top of the bed blankly.
"Dad, you must be hungry after not eating for a long time. I asked Xiaoyu to get some porridge. I'll feed you something later." Gan Mengxian said softly.
Unexpectedly, Mr. Gan said: "I don't drink porridge, I want to eat...eat meat, eat fish...eat a lot of delicious food..."
Gan Mengxian smiled and said: "Okay dad, when you get better, we will have all these. You can eat as much as you want."
After hearing this, Master Gan suddenly showed a smile. Although it was very shallow, it made Gan Mengxian very relieved and happy.
Soon, Xiaoyu brought a bowl of white rice porridge, and Gan Mengxian began to feed his father.
Gan Mengxian would carefully blow each spoonful to cool it, and then carefully feed it into her father's mouth. If any porridge water leaked from the corner of his mouth, she would wipe it immediately with a handkerchief.
There wasn't much porridge, but he fed him for more than a quarter of an hour. It wasn't until Mr. Gan stopped eating that Gan Mengxian removed the porridge bowl, asked Xiaoyu to fetch warm water, and wiped his father's face and hands himself.
Perhaps because of eating, Mr. Gan's mental state improved a little and his consciousness became much clearer.
"Xian'er, where is your brother?" Master Gan asked weakly.
Gan Mengxian wiped her father's hands and said, "Dad, I'm busy outside. He just invited a miracle doctor from Muyue Kingdom, and he should be able to treat you soon."
"Oh, thank you for the hard work, you two." Mr. Gan sighed.
"Dad, don't say that. As long as you get better soon, these are nothing." Gan Mengxian had a smile on her face.
Then, Mr. Gan asked about the recent situation at home, what happened, whether there were any guests visiting, etc...
When Gan Mengxian mentioned the guests visiting, Jimo Qiao's face appeared in Gan Mengxian's mind.
After hesitating for a moment, Gan Mengxian asked: "Dad, do you know Jimoshu?"
Mr. Gan said: "Jimoshu... I am so familiar with this name. Let me think about it..."
Gan Mengxian added: "It's the high priest in the capital, Mr. Jimoshu. Do you still have any impressions?"
"Ah, it's him, I remembered... I know him, I know him..." Mr. Gan nodded laboriously.
Gan Mengxian was extremely surprised: "Really? Dad, do you really know Master Jimoshu?"
Mr. Gan asked: "Did he write a letter? Xian'er, please bring the letter quickly and read it to me. I am so sick that I don't even know how he is doing."
Gan Mengxian immediately said: "No, dad, it's a girl who came just now. She claims to be Lord Jimo's daughter, Jimo Qiao..."
"What, you said Jimoshu's daughter is here?" Mr. Gan was surprised, and immediately became a little excited, and asked: "What about Jimoshu? Is he here?"
Gan Mengxian hurriedly comforted her father and said, "Dad, only Miss Jimo is here, Master Jimo is not here..."
"What about her daughter? Let her come in to see me quickly." Mr. Gan was a little anxious.
"She...she left." Gan Mengxian lowered her head and said.
Mr. Gan was stunned: "Why?"
At this point, Gan Mengxian had no choice but to tell her father everything that had just happened.
After hearing this, Mr. Gan became even more anxious and frowned: "You... how could you do this? You can't confirm her identity. You can... you can let her come to see me. How can you do this?
How about treating the guests? Where is the Ganfeng man? Call him in, I want to..."
At this point, the words stopped abruptly.
It turned out that Mr. Gan was a little excited after learning about the incident. His body couldn't hold it back for a while and he suddenly fainted.
"Dad, how are you? Dad!" Gan Mengxian was frightened.
After a while, Gan Mengxian breathed a sigh of relief, because her father's mood swings only caused him to fall asleep, and his pulse and breathing were still stable at present.
At this time, Gan Mengxian regretted telling her father those things. Fortunately, her father was fine. If something had happened, she would have blamed herself to death and regretted it to death!
After covering his father with a quilt, Gan Mengxian sat quietly by the bed.
At this moment, she couldn't help but think of Jimo Qiao. Could it be that she and her eldest brother had made a mistake, and she was really Jimoshu's daughter?
