"Don't worry, Miss Xiujuan. You don't need to call a doctor. We have a female doctor in our mansion who specializes in treating injuries. Let her come and see you later. No matter what the problem is, there is no incurable disease."

Shen Qi was determined to see Miss Xiujuan about her injuries. Xiujuan originally wanted to just say a few words to get over it, but when she heard what Shen Qi said, her face changed and a thin layer of sweat appeared on her forehead.

Today is a day with clear skies and crisp air. Even if you walk more, you won't sweat.

"...I'm fine, I just need to take a break..." Xiujuan was choked by Shen Qi's words. She hesitated and said, "We can't trouble your family for such a small matter. Let's hurry back to the banquet..."

"How can this be possible? Guests are guests. Now that you are injured, how can I let you go back with this injury? If my mother knew about this, she would definitely blame me... Besides, this is not the way we treat guests in the Shen family... Moreover, I just saw that Miss Xiujuan was in so much pain. It's not as serious as you said. If you don't get treatment quickly, it will cause a root of disease in the future, which will not be happy."

The girls next to them also advised Xiujuan to see a female doctor. Of course, there were also a few who advised Shen Qi, saying that since Xiujuan herself had said that there was no problem, there was no need to go through so much trouble.

Xiao Lan thought for a moment and said, "In my opinion, it would be better for Miss Xiujuan to go and have a look. Firstly, it is for your own health, and secondly, you don't want to disappoint the kindness of the host family."

When Xiujuan heard Xiaolan say this, her expression became even uglier, and the look she gave Xiaolan became even more unfriendly.

Xiao Lan wanted to hold back her anger, but when she saw Xiujuan's eyes, she knew that no matter how tolerant she was, Xiujuan would never accept her favor. She was afraid that not only would she not accept her favor, but she would also think that she could be manipulated at will.

Xiujuan's show just now was so realistic that Shen Qi arranged for someone to bring a sedan chair and helped the reluctant Xiujuan get on it.

"I will accompany Miss Xiujuan to see her wounds first. I left two maids behind. Sisters, you can continue to walk around the garden, or go back to watch the show..." The maids that Shen Qi left behind were only to lead the way for the sisters. There were other maids and old women in the garden, and everyone could use them. "We will be back soon..." Shen Qi apologized to Xiao Lan before leaving, saying that he would come back to accompany them later.

Seeing Xiujuan being carried away, several little girls came over to help lift up the screen. At this time, Xiaolan winked at Xiaoqing, "Miss, I'm stupid. There's something I can't figure out..." Xiaoqing deliberately raised her voice and asked, "Wasn't Miss Xiujuan standing with the other girls just now? But looking at the direction of the painting, how could it have hit Miss Xiujuan?"

Everyone present heard what Xiaoqing said.

Xiujuan, who was sitting in the sedan chair, froze all of a sudden. Because her back was facing away from everyone, no one could see the expression on her face. Only a few girls next to her couldn't help but giggle, and a few others showed expressions of sudden enlightenment.

Shen Qi also had her back to everyone, so Xiao Lan couldn't see her expression. But Shen Qi didn't say anything, she just told the maid who was carrying the sedan chair to go slower so as not to disturb Miss Xiujuan.

Watching Shen Qi and Xiujuan walking away, Xiao Lan discussed with her sisters and decided not to continue strolling around the garden. Instead, she walked back to the table in the direction they came from.

Grandma Shen San was watching the play with everyone. She saw them come back at a glance, but did not see Shen Qi. She did not ask any questions, thinking that someone had already reported what happened to her.

Xiaolan and He Susu were both sitting at the table. Neither of them mentioned what had just happened to their mother. Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. He were very happy to see the two little sisters being so close.

After two cups of tea, a little maid came hurriedly and whispered a few words in Mrs. Qu's ear. Then Mrs. Qu's face changed, and she stood up and said a few words to Grandma Shen San. Grandma Shen San just stood up slightly, sent away the housekeeper He and her personal maid, and left with Mrs. Qu.

Mrs. Ou was Ou Xiujuan's mother. She left in a hurry at this time, and Xiaolan didn't pay much attention. Xiaolan guessed that the reason why she left so hastily must be related to Ou Xiujuan.

Zhang was absorbed in watching the play at this time. She also noticed something strange and turned to ask Xiaolan with her eyes. Xiaolan shook her head at Zhang to comfort her. No matter what happened, it was none of their business. They just needed to watch the play with peace of mind.

Mrs. He and He Susu next to them also exchanged glances, and He Susu gave her a look that told her to go back and talk later.

Not long after Mrs. Qu left, Shen Qi came back. She first went to pay her respects to Grandma Shen San, and then sat next to Xiao Lan.

Shen Qi told Xiao Lan that it was nothing serious. It was just that when she arrived at my yard, she refused to let anyone carry her when she got off the sedan chair and insisted that her own maid help her. Then she kicked the stairs...

Everyone knew that it was impossible for Ou Yujuan to have injured her foot, but no one wanted to tell the truth. When Xiao Lan heard that she kicked the step when she got off the sedan, she was surprised, "Which foot was injured?"

"The one that was hit was injured..." Shen Qi said, "She was in so much pain that tears came to her eyes, and she even scolded the little girl for not supporting her well... She bled a lot..."

"Isn't this adding insult to injury?" Xiao Lan said.

"That's what I said, too. But the doctor we invited said it was just a kick injury. I asked her to see if it was a serious injury, but the female doctor couldn't even tell that it was a bruise." At this point, Shen Qi sighed, "Alas, with her injury, I guess she won't be able to watch the show or appreciate the flowers. I just sent a message to Mrs. Qu, and the mother and daughter went home first..."

"I still have to apologize to Sister Xiaolan. I'm sorry that you were scared by what happened just now..." Shen Qi said to Xiaolan.

"Don't say that. This is not entirely true. You guys took a lot of time and effort to prepare this banquet today..." Xiao Lan said with a smile.

The play on the stage was almost over, and at this time, people began to stand up and say goodbye. Xiaolan and He Zhang also stood up and said goodbye to Grandma Shen San.
