Quick Wear: Cousin, Come to the Bowl Quickly

Chapter 310: The Sickly Cousin in a Female-Dominant Novel (33)

"Ouch!"

Pei Yun, who was returning to the study to get painting materials, bumped into a servant in a hurry at the corner of a corridor.

She staggered and nearly fell to the ground. After finally standing steady by holding onto the pillar, she looked at the slave in front of her who was rubbing his shoulders with his head down and grinning. She was immediately furious and shouted, "How do you walk like that? How dare you be so reckless!"

"My Lady! I finally found you!" Unexpectedly, when the servant heard her angry voice, instead of being afraid, he shouted out in surprise.

"What do you want me to do?" Pei Yun was stunned when he saw the servant's appearance, and asked with a frown.

"The old lady asked me to tell you something." Upon hearing this, the servant looked behind Pei Yun breathlessly. Seeing that there was no one behind her, a look of anxiety suddenly appeared on his face. "Hey, weren't you with Lord Lin? Why are you alone now?"

"Lord Lin is in the pavilion at Mingchi. Tell me first what your grandfather wants you to do." Pei Yun became impatient when he saw him hesitating, so he urged him.

"The old lady told you to take Lady Lin to the West Garden and not to go near the East Garden, especially the southeast corner, the men's changing room." Seeing her urging, the servant hurriedly told her everything that Old Lady Pei had said, "And most importantly, you must follow Lady Lin closely and never leave her alone in the garden."

"What?" Pei Yun exclaimed when he heard this, and then he seemed to suddenly realize something, his face turned cold, and he asked sternly, "What happened? Why did grandpa say such a thing for no reason?"

"Oh, I can't explain the details right now, but the old lady has given me so many instructions, so there must be an urgent reason." The servant was frightened by Pei Yun's cold tone and trembled. He hurriedly explained, "The most important thing now is to find Master Lin first."

"Forget it. She is in Mingchi. I will go and hold her back first. You can come with me and tell me what happened on the way." Seeing his anxious look, Pei Yun finally realized the seriousness of the matter. He gave up the plan to get the painting materials, made a prompt decision, turned around and left.

"As you wish." The servant hurriedly trotted after her and briefly described the situation.

However, he didn't know much. He only knew that Marquis Changqing and his husband had been sent down by the old lady. They both looked anxious, and it was likely that something big was about to happen, and delaying Lin Xi was an extremely critical part of it.

After hearing this, although Pei Jun was still a little confused, he also realized the arduous task he now had and could not help but take bigger steps.

But when the two of them trotted back to the pond, panting, they saw that there was no sign of Lin Xi in the pavilion except for a servant holding tea with a dazed look on his face.

"Oh no!" Looking at the empty Chixin Pavilion, this was the only thought left in Pei Yun's mind.

On the other side, Lu Yujie was holding the hand of his personal servant Chi Su, looking anxious, and hurriedly following an old servant dressed in the clothes of a servant in the Changqing Marquis Mansion.

"Don't worry, my husband. The second lady has always been in good health, so there will be no serious problem." Chi Su's face was solemn, but she still spoke to comfort her.

"She has always been naughty. I told her not to jump up and down all day, but she just wouldn't listen. Now look what's wrong with her. She fell off her horse and hurt her brain. I don't know what's going on. How can I not be anxious!" Lu Yujie kept walking and sighing.

The second lady they were talking about was Lu Yujie's daughter, the second lady of the Changsun Mansion - Changsun Ke. Lu Yujie had a very difficult time giving birth to Changsun Yan, and she injured her body. The imperial physician diagnosed that she would never be able to get pregnant again.

However, Chang Sun Mei and Lu Yujie were childhood friends and had a very deep affection for each other. Therefore, even after knowing that Lu Yujie would never get pregnant again, she had no plans to take a concubine.

But she did not want to take a concubine and give birth to a daughter, but Lu Yujie did not want her to be childless, so after discussing it, the two adopted a girl from the same clan's side branch as their adopted daughter, and this girl was Changsun Ke.

Although Chang Sun Ke is not Lu Yujie's biological son, he has been raised by his side since childhood, so he is not much different from his biological son Chang Sun Yan. However, although they both have the surname Chang Sun and are only three years apart in age, the personalities of Chang Sun Ke and Chang Sun Yan are indeed worlds apart.

Chang Sun Yan has always liked quietness because of his poor health, but Chang Sun Ke is an overly energetic troublemaker. Ever since he could walk, he has never had a moment of rest except for sleeping. Every day he either studies some strange things or gathers friends to play horse racing and archery.

Fortunately, the Changsun family has always had a good reputation, and they have the support of their mother Changsun Mei, who has great prestige. Therefore, Changsun Ke did not grow up to be a bad person, he was just a little playful and competitive.

Just like today, Lu Yujie had clearly agreed with her that they would come to the Changqing Marquis's residence to celebrate his birthday, but she turned around and ran to the West Hill to go horse racing with a few friends.

Just now, Lu Yujie was accompanying Changsun Yan to the warm room where the men changed their clothes. But just as they were about to arrive, an anxious-looking old servant suddenly rushed over and asked him if he was Mr. Changsun. He said that his daughter had fallen off the horse during a horse race in Xishan and was now being sent to the clinic.

Lu Yujie was startled, but when he looked at the unfamiliar face in front of him and thought of the slightly red eyes of Zhang's husband when he looked at him, he suddenly became a little alert.

But the servant said that it was the housekeeper of Changsun Mansion who sent someone to deliver the news, and he described word for word what Changsun Ke was wearing today, which dispelled Lu Yujie's doubts.

He left Bai Lian, who knew some martial arts skills, to Changsun Yan, and asked the servant sent by Old Lady Pei to look after him. Then he rushed to the gate with the letter.

But who would have thought that outside the gate, he would actually see Housekeeper Yao, and learn from her that Chang Sun Ke was injured, but it was just a minor scratch and a few bruises.

Chang Sun Ke had suffered such minor injuries so many times since she was able to run and jump that she couldn't even remember how many times she had suffered such minor injuries. They were not as serious as the old servant who came to deliver the message described.

Housekeeper Yao came here only because someone delivered a message to Changsun Mansion saying that Lu Yujie had taken the wrong birthday gift and asked her to bring it back.

After the two exchanged all the information, their faces changed drastically. Lu Yujie immediately realized that he had fallen into a trap and subconsciously turned to look for the old servant who had just delivered the message and led the way, but he was nowhere to be found!
