Favoring the concubine and killing the wife? She divorced the concubine and lived with her concubine

Before the doctor arrived, Haitang brought some burn ointment from the kitchen. But no one dared to apply it easily. Just as they were hesitating, Jasmine finally returned with the doctor.

The doctor was an elderly man, followed by an old woman.

The doctor walked faster than Jasmine. Seeing someone standing at the door, he asked anxiously, "Where is the injured person?"

Xiao Lan quickly stepped aside and led the doctor to Xin'er in bed. The doctor called his wife over and explained, "My wife has some medical experience and can help treat the young girl's injuries. Everyone, please move aside!" Xiao Lan was very grateful for Moli's attentiveness. Knowing that she was being thorough, she took her hand and nodded. Seeing that the doctor was very reliable, she left the room.

Because she didn't dare to look at Xin'er's body.

As she suspected, Xin'er had more than one burn. Her arm was the worst, where Cuizhu had ripped off her sleeve, taking away the skin. The rest of the burns, running from her armpit to her side, were covered in blisters that clung to her clothes and were difficult to peel off.

It shouldn't have been so serious. It was all because Cuizhu was afraid that Xin'er's crying would cause trouble for her, so she covered her face with a quilt.

Any normal person would know that if they get burned, they should use cold water, but this Cuizhu...

Fang Qingqing searched the house but couldn't find her, so she had no choice but to return to Xiao Lan's place. She felt a little embarrassed to face him. "I'm sorry, I couldn't find her!" Since they knew they were from the same place, Fang Qingqing and Xiao Lan felt that they could use the more casual name "concubine".

"Well, she is Mother Yu's niece. We should go find her." Xiao Lan did not blame her, but she would not let Cuizhu go.

"Madam, my young lady..." Xiaobai came hurriedly from behind, "I saw Cuizhu following the young master and Ziwei into the old lady's yard. I didn't dare to stop them for fear of alerting them."

"In my opinion, she should be caught. Why is she hiding? What a scoundrel!" Xiaoqing said angrily. She had just heard Fang Qingqing say that Xin'er was badly scalded by hot water, and she felt from the bottom of her heart that Cuizhu was a heartless beast! How could she have the heart to hurt a three-year-old child?

Xiao Lan glanced at Xiaobai, expressing her approval for her decision not to alert the enemy, and patted Xiaoqing on the shoulder to express her gratitude for her concern for Xiner.

"It's right not to alert the enemy. Let her hide there for a while, so she thinks I don't dare to go to the old woman. I'll go and settle the score with her later, Xin'er."

"But that guy surnamed Sun..." Fang Qingqing knew that the reason Cuizhu was so arrogant was, firstly, because of Yu Mama, and secondly, because she was the master's concubine.

"There are several people with the surname Sun in this yard," Xiaoqing reminded.

Xiaobai rolled his eyes at her and said nothing.

"So, I can't go now." Xiao Lan didn't want to endure it, but she had to. She began to regret not writing a real letter home and sending it out in person.

At the time, she thought she could slowly resolve these issues and not cause trouble for the original owner's parents. After all, just as the original owner had thought, this marriage was arranged by her parents and the matchmaker, but she also accepted it. Why go and cry and make the decision now? Why lose this person?

Xiao Lan entered the room, looked at Xin'er lying on the bed, went to the desk, spread out the paper, and picked up a pen.

Fang Qingqing followed in and helped her grind. "If you could take a picture and send it over, your parents would fly back right away."

Xiao Lan looked up at her and smiled, "Yeah, now I know how difficult it is for a woman born here. It takes a lot of effort to find a mother's family!"

She thought for a moment. These ancient letters were not easy to write. Although she had the muscle memory of the original owner and could write the original owner's notes, she still had to remember the words and sentences carefully.

After finally finishing writing, she sealed the letter and was worrying about how to deliver it faster if her parents were on their way back.

"Madam! It's done!" The doctor wiped the sweat from his forehead and moved to the table to write a prescription.

Xiao Lan hurriedly put the letter into his sleeve and walked forward, leading the doctor to the desk to write. The doctor thanked him without hesitation and started to write quickly.

While the doctor was writing, Xiao Lan pulled Mother Xu over.

"Do you recognize this Doctor Li?"

"I recognize him. He followed the old man when he was young and was an apprentice in Sui'an Shop. After he learned his trade, he started seeing patients. Later, when the old shopkeeper retired, he took over." Mother Xu recounted the past.

"That……"

"He's an honest, good man!" Mother Xu said with certainty, but then she thought about it, thinking that after several years, she couldn't guarantee it. "He was indeed a good person before."

Xiao Lan nodded, and knowing that Mother Xu was worried, she didn't ask any more questions.

The recipe was written in a short while.

"Madam, I didn't expect the young lady to be so badly injured today. Although I brought a lot of ointment, it's not enough for tomorrow. Change the dressing every day. Don't wrap it with cloth, it will easily break."

Xiao Lan nodded repeatedly, took the prescription and handed it to Mother Xu.

"My wife will come to your house these few days to give the young lady medicine, and she will also bring the prepared medicine. This prescription is for emergencies, so just keep it!" After all, it is the Xiao family's own property, so naturally it will be well taken care of.

"Doctor Li, thank you so much, otherwise the young lady would have suffered." Mother Xu thanked him repeatedly.

Xiao Lan looked at Doctor Li, paused, and asked, "Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching, and my master said he would invite my parents to come back for a reunion. I've been looking forward to it so much. Now that Xin'er is like this, I think..." Xiao Lan revealed a corner of the letter from home.

Doctor Li was delighted, "The master and his wife are coming back?"

Xiao Lan wasn't sure and didn't reply. Doctor Li saw that she wasn't sure, so he reached out and lightly pressed the letter, signaling Xiao Lan to take it back.

"Madam, there's no need for the letter. It's inconvenient! Do you have anything to take with you?" Doctor Li is an elder of the Xiao family. He has worked diligently with the Xiao family all his life and is an upright person. He has always disliked the butler Wang's bullying behavior and has never had the intention of going along with him.

Unfortunately, the Xiao family's master and mistress had returned to the north to visit relatives a few years ago and hadn't returned for many years. Xiao Lan had never managed the shop before, so he was helpless. To keep the shop, he had no choice but to negotiate with Butler Wang.

When Xiao Lan saw that the person didn't accept the letter but wanted to deliver a message, she instantly felt that she had found the right person and quickly stuffed the letter back into her sleeve.

"Yes! I've been in dire straits in the Sun family and have died twice, and now it's Xin'er's turn. I just hope my parents will come back soon and make the decision for me!"

Xiao Lan spoke bluntly, her fingers cold from excitement as she held Doctor Li's hand tightly.

Doctor Li almost shed tears when he saw Xiao Lan like this. Thinking about the future of the girl he had just treated... he felt sorry for Xiao Lan. He turned around to look at his wife, and they looked at each other with red eyes.

"Don't worry, the Xiao family has many cargo ships for delivery. We will notify you as soon as there is any news." Doctor Li's voice also trembled.

"Madam, you were right to come to me. There are problems with your shops!" Doctor Li added, fearing that Xiao Lan would try all kinds of treatments out of desperation and get into trouble by spreading the news carelessly.

Xiao Lan naturally knew it, but she was still grateful.

"Madam... Miss is now safe, but this burn wound is no different from others. I'm afraid she'll be having a hard time over the next few days. Make sure to keep it cool and dry." Doctor Li paused, then added, "Removing this scar... will take even longer!"

Xiao Lan nodded, and when she wanted to give him money, Doctor Li waved his hand and walked away quickly.
