Chapter 116 Disease
Chapter 116 Disease
"Take these down and feed Xiao Mi." Ye Ziyu said after Ye Kexin left. Xiao Mi was Ye Ziyu's new cat. It came from nowhere. Ye Ziyu felt that raising a cat was a bit annoying at first, so she asked people to drive it away. But every time Xiao Mi came back not long after leaving, Ye Ziyu just kept it.
Lixia took away the food box that Ye Kexin brought.
Ye Ziyu went to the desk and wrote a letter, then gave it to Li Qiu and asked her to deliver it to the Ling Mansion.
Li Qiu came back after delivering the letter, "Miss, Miss Ling is not in the mansion yet. The servant at the gate took the letter and said that he would give it to Miss Ling in due time. I am back now."
"Well, just send it off. I'm a little sleepy, so I'll take a nap first." Ye Ziyu said.
Li Qiu helped to remove the ornaments on Ye Ziyu's head, then helped Ye Ziyu change into pajamas. After Ye Ziyu lay down to sleep, he tucked in the corners of the quilt and left.

"Tell me, who sent you?" In the dark room, two whipped and bloody people were lying on the ground, with their hands and feet completely intact and their faces were unrecognizable due to the whip.
"Sir, please let us go, we really don't know who it is." The two men had their eyes covered with cloth and could not see who was in front of them.
Shi Encai didn't hear anyone talking, and then another whip came down, "Ah——"
The shouting made Sun Min tremble at the side. "Sir, what we said is true. We are Xie Qingyin's uncle and aunt. We came to her just to ask her to take on the responsibility of the younger generation and give us some money to support us."
After Sun Min finished speaking, she saw that the man didn't hit her and continued, "The day we arrived at the Ye Mansion, Miss Ye San reported us to the police and we were arrested. Later, someone spent money to bail us out. After we were released, they placed us in a small courtyard and told us not to go out casually. Food would be delivered to us."
"After a long time, no one came to look for us, so we thought that life was pretty good. We had food and shelter. This morning, the person who sent us to the courtyard came to find us and said that they would take us to a place to find Madam Ling, and then tell Madam Ling the truth that Ye Qingyin was not a young lady from the Ye Mansion, so that Madam Ling would not be deceived by the illusion. That's it... that's it."
"Do you know who saw you?"
"I don't know. He looks like a follower and the fabric of his clothes is not top-notch." Sun Min said. Sun Min liked to buy clothes and fabrics, so he could tell whether the fabric was good or not just by looking at it.
"If I ask you to recognize someone, can you recognize him?"
Sun Min swallowed his saliva, "Sir, that man was wearing a mask, I really couldn't recognize him..." A whip lashed over, and Sun Min rolled on the ground in pain, "Ah——"
"Let them think carefully about what else they have to say." After saying that, Sun Min heard the door open. "Help, help." Sun Min shouted hurriedly, but was greeted with another whip.
"Master, it seems that they can't get anything out of us. Should we just dispose of them?"
"Let's wait and see. If we really can't get anything out of you, then let's just deal with it."
"Yes."
"Just throw the body in front of the Huang Mansion."
"Why not just throw it into the mass grave? Or throw it in front of the Huang Mansion?"
"Do they have that ability? If they are caught because they were lost in front of the Huang Mansion, then you will have to go and accompany them." Fang Jingxiu said and left.
The guard respectfully saw Fang Jingxiu off and then returned to the room.

"Where is my Xiu'er? Where is Xiu'er? Why is my Xiu'er gone? When it gets dark, Xiu'er will be scared."
"Madam, please don't run around. Be careful not to get hurt. The young master will be back soon."
"What? Xiu'er is out. What's wrong with you? How can you let a child this young go out alone? What if something happens?" The woman was furious. "No, I'm going to go out and find him."
"Ma'am, no, you can't go out."
"Don't stop me, don't stop me. How dare you! I am the Marquis' wife. Are you guys so unruly?"
"Squeak~" the door opened.
The woman quieted down and looked at the person who came in from the door, looking at the person approaching with a curious expression.
"Young Marquis." The maids and servants around saluted.
"What's going on?" Fang Jingxiu said coldly.
The old woman and the maid quickly knelt down and said, "Please forgive me, my young master. My wife is ill again and wants to see you, my young master."
"Mother." Fang Jingxiu's voice became much softer.
"You... who are you? Why do you call me mother? Xiu'er is my only child." Fang's mother looked defensive.
"Mother, please take another good look at the child. The child is Xiu'er. Your Xiu'er has grown up." Fang Jingxiu coaxed softly.
Mother Fang carefully examined Fang Jingxiu's face and said, "Xiu'er, this is my Xiu'er." Mother Fang hugged Fang Jingxiu and said, "Xiu'er, where have you been? It seems like I haven't seen you for a day."
"Mother, I went out to do something. Look, I'm back now, right?"
"Okay, have you eaten yet?"
"I haven't eaten yet."
"Then mom will eat with you."
"it is good."
Fang's mother took Fang Jingxiu's hand and walked towards the hall. After the two left, the people kneeling on the ground hurriedly stood up to serve them.
After the meal, Fang Jingxiu coaxed his mother to take a rest. Only after he was sure that his mother had rested did Fang Jingxiu leave.
In the hall, Fang Jingxiu sat on the main seat, and Mother Hua, who was serving Fang's mother, stood beside him, "Young Marquis."
"Didn't you say before that my mother's condition was getting better and better? She hasn't had an attack for a long time, why did she have an attack again today?"
"I don't know what happened today, but Madam suddenly fell ill again. If the young marquis hadn't returned in time, I'm afraid we wouldn't have been able to stop her." Mother Hua said.
"But something may have irritated mother?" Fang Jingxiu asked.
"All of the Marquis's belongings are kept in the warehouse, and there is no sight of the Marquis's things next to the lady." This also puzzled Mother Hua. In the past, Mother Fang's illness was mostly caused by seeing the Marquis's belongings, and then being reminded of the Marquis's death and being stimulated by the scene, which would lead to the illness.
Fang Jingxiu lowered his head and pinched his brows, "Forget it, go down, pay more attention to mother's condition, and send someone to find me if there is any problem."
"Young Master, you should also have a good rest. Don't overwork yourself and hurt your body."
"I know." Fang Jingxiu was very respectful to Mother Hua, because Mother Hua had been with Fang's mother since she was a child until she married into the Marquis' Mansion and to the present day.

Others' lunch breaks are half an hour, but Ye Ziyu's is two hours...
Liqiu and Lixia were struggling over whether or not to wake Ye Ziyu up, otherwise Ye Ziyu would have to stay up all night again and there would be dark blue under her eyes the next day. But now Ye Ziyu was in a bad mood when she got up, and if she was woken up because she didn't get enough sleep, she would be in a bad mood all the time. The two struggled for a long time but finally didn't wake Ye Ziyu up.
When Ye Ziyu opened her eyes after a good sleep, it was already dark. Ye Ziyu stretched and said, "Beginning of Autumn, Beginning of Summer."
Li Qiu pushed the door open and walked in. "Miss, are you awake?"
"Well, what time is it?"
"Miss, it's almost 5 o'clock..."
Ye Ziyu, who was still in a daze, heard this and said, "What, it's almost 5 p.m.? I slept for so long again, why didn't you wake me up?"
"Miss, the last time we woke you up, you got very angry and were in a bad mood the whole afternoon. The eldest young master and the others asked us what was wrong with you." Li Qiu said weakly.
Ye Ziyu suddenly thought of the last time and sighed. Ever since Ye Ziyu gradually became familiar with this place, he gradually became grumpy when waking up. Last time, he lost his temper unconsciously.
"Oh, forget it, forget it. Serve the food. I'm hungry. I'll go find my sister after I finish eating." Upon hearing this, Li Qiu hurriedly asked someone to serve dinner.
Soon, the hot dinner was on the table. "It's different being a master. You don't have to cook for yourself when you wake up. You can eat right away."
"Oh, by the way, is there any news from Aqing?" Ye Ziyu asked while eating.
"There is no news yet. Do you need me to ask again?" Li Qiu asked.
"Forget it, maybe Aqing hasn't returned yet. It's okay. We can wait until 4:45 tomorrow. If Aqing doesn't come, you can go by yourself."
"Well, Miss is going to the north of the city tomorrow, do you need to prepare anything?" Li Qiu asked.
Ye Ziyu thought for a moment and said, "Find me one of your clothes. I will wear your clothes tomorrow. Then prepare some change and rice."
"My lady is a daughter of a thousand gold, how can you wear the clothes of a servant?"
"My clothes are too fancy to wear there. I want to observe the situation first when I get there."
"clear."
