A life of ups and downs is pure joy

Before I knew it, a month has passed. Every day I either take medicine and eat, or lie in bed like a half-dead person. My back and waist ache all over.

Su Jin used all his strength to barely sit up by holding onto the bed frame. His heavy breathing startled Chu Xia and Li Xue who were at the door, and they pushed the door open in panic.

"When did the girl wake up? Why didn't you call anyone? If she got tired, we would have made a big mistake." Li Xue's voice was trembling with tears and she looked really uneasy.

Chu Xia was calmer. She gently put a robe on Su Jin and put a quilt behind her back to cushion her waist.

"The girl must be thirsty. Go and pour her a cup of tea. Remember to skim off the tea leaves." After hearing this, Li Xue hurried to the round table and started to prepare the tea.

"Miss, I'll go open the windows a little." Su Jin nodded, and Chu Xia ran to open all the windows.

She took the tea handed to her by Li Xue. The fragrance of tea was everywhere. She took a sip and the fragrance of tea lingered on the tip of her tongue. This must be this year's new tea.

"Li Xue, go get me something to eat. I'm a little hungry." The little girl looked at Su Jin stupidly for a moment, then ran out with a smile. The thumping sound of her footsteps on the floor echoed in the corridor outside.

"It's rare for a girl to take the initiative to say she's hungry. Look how happy Xue'er is." Chu Xia squatted down to put on shoes and socks for Su Jin. If it weren't for the original owner's poor body, she would not be able to bear others helping her put on socks.

"Please help me walk in the yard. I'm almost suffocating in the house." Chu Xia was surprised after hearing her words, but she immediately took out the thick outer robe, skillfully put it on Su Jin, and tied a beautiful bow.

"The girl looks much better today. By the way, the eldest girl came just now. She might have fallen asleep. She left in a hurry before I could serve her the pastries." Chuxia signaled her to be careful with the threshold. The threshold of this house was really high.

"Well, big sister, I'm worried about you. I will definitely go to thank you later." Chu Xia looked at her strangely, but didn't say much. Su Jin thought, could it be that I said something wrong?

"Okay, let's pick a warm day. I feel that the girl's complexion has been getting better and better these days. It seems that the medical skills of the doctors in Lushen Hall are better." Unknowingly, they walked to the small courtyard in the middle. The chaise longue was replaced by a bamboo rattan chair with a thick cushion on it.

It was quite comfortable to sit there. The small wooden table was filled with fruits and pastries. She stretched out her arms to try one or two, but found that the distance was a bit far. The attentive maid beside her quickly called for someone to move the table closer to her, so that her frail body wouldn't have to toss back and forth. It seemed that the original owner must not have liked to eat this on a normal day.

Confused Su Jin didn't know what era it was and didn't dare to ask directly. She could only change her appearance every day and pretend to be natural to ask a few things. It really worried her to death.

What these two maids often mentioned was that Lin Qinghuan's father, who had many wives, was now the Grand Marshal in charge of hundreds of thousands of troops, and her uncle, General Lin Mufeng, had been guarding Yinan all year round. When outsiders heard about the two Generals, they were terrified and their armies were routed.

But her late grandfather was an upright civil servant, and her grandmother was a daughter of a military family, whose word was final. Now it was her grandmother who was in charge of the household.

Although Lin Mu Tang has many concubines, they are all obedient to the old ancestor and dare not act rashly in front of him. As for the brothers and sisters in the Lin family, not much is known about it so far, and the one who has heard the most is the eldest sister Lin Qingyao.

The flowers in the yard were blooming beautifully, and the smell was so refreshing. However, Lin Qinghuan's body was so weak that she fell asleep before a decent meal arrived.
