From that day on, Chu Xiao was locked up in her own yard, and Chu Ci was also recuperating in his own yard. The Chu family was quiet for a few days.

That day, Chu Ci was sitting under the wisteria trellis he had planted, drinking tea, when Chunhua came over. A familiar little medicine boy was standing behind him. "Master, the medicine boy who served the imperial physician is here."

Chu Ci glanced at the little medicine boy standing beside him, smiled faintly, and waved at him, "Come here, is there anything the Imperial Physician can do for you?"

This little medicine boy is still young. In Chu Ci's view, he is just a child who is ignorant of the world, although she herself is also still young.

The little medicine boy kept his head down. He walked to Chu Ci and was about to kneel down. Chu Ci reached out to stop him, smiled faintly, and shook his head slightly, "Just stand and talk, no need to kneel."

The little medicine boy stood up straight, clutching his clothes nervously. He tilted his head to glance at Chunhua beside him. Only after Chunhua nodded did he dare to speak normally, "Miss Chu, my master said that the Empress in the palace is not feeling well today and cannot come. I want you to go to Huichuntang to soak in some medicine. Their medicine is also very good for removing scars."

Chu Ci's eyes lit up. Did that mean she had a reason to go out for a walk? She hadn't really gone out for a walk since returning here for so long.

"Okay, I understand. Sorry to bother the little master. Chunhua, give the little master some money so that he can buy some delicious food."

Chunhua smiled and took out a little three-year-old silver from her sleeve and gave it to him reluctantly, "Little Master, I'm sorry to bother you. Let me take you out."

Chu Ci saw Chunhua's reluctance and knew that she didn't have much silver left.

She took out the silver needle in her hand, it seemed that she had to find a way to get some silver.

When Chunhua came in, she walked to Chuci and looked at Chuci's hands, "Master, let's go back to Chuntang."

Looking at the master's originally slender and white hands, although it no longer affects her activities, they still look not as white and tender as those of other girls, and there are still some scars on them, which makes Chunhua feel distressed.

Chu Ci reached out and smoothed her wrinkled brows. "Don't worry, this little scar is nothing to me. Don't worry, it won't leave a scar."

Although Chunhua didn't believe it in her heart, she still nodded at Chu Ci with a smile. She only knew that everything her master said was right.

Chu Ci knew that she didn't believe it, so he just smiled faintly, saying that she would know it in the future.

"It's getting late. Let's go out first. We can still stroll around for a while." After Chu Ci said this, he ignored Chunhua's reply and went out with his men.

The two men had just walked out of the mansion and saw a carriage parked on the side of the road in the distance, and exclamations came from the carriage.

Chu Ci looked at the carriage in the distance with a frown on his face. This sign seemed to be a carriage from the Minister of Personnel's Mansion.

She remembered that in her previous life, there seemed to be a legend that the eldest daughter of the Minister of Rites seemed to have a heart disease. She remembered that the girl was quite good.

Judging from the shouting inside, the little girl must be having a seizure.

Chu Ci took two anxious steps to the side of the carriage and slowly lifted the door curtain. She saw a little maid inside searching for something, and next to her was a little girl lying with her hands covering her heart. She looked pale and not in good condition.

"Miss, what should we do? The medicine I brought with me is gone, and even the medicine in the carriage is gone. This place is quite far from Huichun Hall and the mansion. What should we do now?"

The little maid was so anxious that she didn't know what to do, and she seemed to have no idea of her own decision at all.

Chu Ci looked at the little girl and saw that her face had begun to turn purple. She couldn't hold on for much longer.

Chu Ci waved away the coachman's hands that were trying to stop her, held the carriage with one hand, and pushed hard with her feet to get directly onto the carriage.

The little maid was holding her master. When she saw a strange girl getting on the carriage, she was about to scold her but was interrupted by Chu Ci.

While she was finding the silver needles hidden on her body, she explained to the little maid, "I know medical skills. If I don't save your young lady, she won't be able to hold on."

The little maid also roughly knew her master's situation. Looking at Chu Ci's expression, she hesitated and finally decided to take a gamble. "Okay, thank you for your help, young lady. As long as you can wake up my young lady, my master will definitely thank you very much."

Chu Ci didn't even glance at her, he was too busy.

Chu Ci took the silver needle and pricked the girl's body one by one. After a few pricks, sweat broke out on Chu Ci's forehead.

Chunhua stood aside, dumbfounded. She never knew that her master had such good medical skills.

Seeing the sweat on her master's forehead, she took her handkerchief and reached over to make sure it would not block her master's sight before she dared to wipe the sweat carefully.

Only after the last needle landed on the young lady did Chu Ci dare to take a deep breath. "Your mistress will wake up soon. Remember, you must never leave the medicine without her. I don't always catch her by chance, nor can I always be in time."

When the little maid heard Chu Ci's words, she hugged her master's arm with both hands and whispered anxiously, "Master? Master? Wake up."

The little girl lying in the carriage slowly opened her eyes, "What's wrong with me?"

The little maid was relieved to see her master awake, "Master, you were sick and almost killed by them. It was this young lady who saved you."

When Chu Ci saw that the little girl had woken up, he took back the silver needles from her body, put everything in order, stood up and was about to leave.

The little girl grabbed Chu Ci's wrist and said, "Sister, can you tell me your name? I can ask my parents to come and thank you."

Chu Ci smiled faintly, "My name is Chu Ci, so there's no need to come and thank you. Also, remember, don't tell anyone that I know medical skills."

Chu Ci got off the carriage and was about to leave with Chunhua.

The little girl grabbed Chu Ci's wrist again, "Sister Chu Ci, my name is Qiao Yu, and I'm the eldest daughter of the Minister of Personnel. Can I be your friend?"

Chu Ci turned and looked at her, "Okay!"

"Sister Chu, can I come and play with you? On any day?"

Chu Ci took a look at the little girl. She looked very cute, but also seemed to be a naughty kid.

She vaguely remembered that this little girl also died at a young age. Rumor had it that she was killed by someone in their house. She didn't know the details, but she was not much better off than her at the time.

Whose pot doesn’t have ash at the bottom?

"Okay! Remember to take the medicine with you. Never leave it alone. Be sure to pay close attention."

Chu Ci grabbed Chunhua's hand and said, "Let's go to Huichun Hall."
