"I think it's necessary to talk to A Yue."

Er'er spoke quietly, looking at A Yue over there from time to time.

Xu Yiyi sighed, "I asked her, but she didn't want to say."

I thought, maybe A Yue is not mentally prepared to recover yet.

"Let's do this for now! We'll see when we get back to town."

As Xu Yiyi spoke, she took off Wu Yuan's dirty clothes, and the child was covered in sticky clothes.

He was drenched in sweat, and his hair was sticking to his forehead in clumps.

It looks really hot.

"I'm going to go back and tell Master."

Er Er pursed his lips. After three acupuncture treatments, there was no improvement. The master was beginning to question his own medical skills.

"Sister, are we going back tomorrow?"

Sanchuan turned around and said this, his face flushed.

I haven't recovered from the excitement of the Lantern Festival yet.

"If you don't come back tomorrow, I'll take you to find more fish tomorrow, and I'll also take you to see a good thing."

Hearing this, Sihai's dazed eyes cleared up a little, "What good thing is Big Sister?"

The child sat up straight.

Sanchuan was thoughtful, "Is Big Sister that..."

Before he finished speaking, Xu Yiyi hissed.

"You'll know tomorrow. Keep it a secret for now. Go take a shower and go to bed."

Xu Yiyi spoke in a mysterious manner, which aroused the curiosity of the children.

……

When the night is deep and quiet, a few rays of moonlight leak in through the wooden lattice window frames.

A Yue curled up on the wooden stool beside the bed, looking at the children on the low beds on both sides.

Sihai's sleeping posture on the low bed on the left has never been very good, and now he is sleeping soundly on Sanchuan.

Er'er had left an empty space on the low bed on the right, which was her seat.

As for the one sleeping opposite the window, Yi Yi and Wu Yuan were there. Thinking back to Yi Yi's temptation tonight, A Yue didn't know how to respond for a moment.

Xu Yiyi stroked the ripple pattern on her forearm with her fingertips. She said nothing and looked at A Yue through the coarse cloth tent.

She had something hidden in her heart and was not as sensitive as before.

He didn't notice at all that someone had noticed something was wrong with him.

It was not until the night wind lifted half of the window paper and the night watchman in the distance struck the third watch that A Yue lay back on the bed.

The early morning sunlight poured into the room through the gaps in the inn's window lattice, and Xu Yiyi was awakened by a rustling sound.

When she opened her eyes, she saw Sihai standing on tiptoe, trying to reach the lantern hanging above the bed.

While he was jumping around happily, the other people in the room were woken up.

Sanchuan rubbed his eyes and sat up, put on his coat swiftly, put Sihai back on the small bed, and was helping him tie his belt in a daze.

"Big sister, what are you taking us to see today?"

Sihai suddenly remembered something and asked excitedly, "Last night's lantern festival was so much fun. Is there anything more fun to do today?"

"No hurry, let's go see some fish first."

"Oh!" Sihai was trying to tie up his hair clumsily with his little hands, and then he remembered that he had a little friend in the capital city.

Yesterday, Duoyu's elder sister and brother-in-law were also in the city, and they definitely wanted to take Duoyu out to play.

Xu Yiyi naturally didn't bring the kids to join in the fun.

When I went out, the streets still bore traces of last night's lantern festival, with remnants of colored paper and lanterns scattered everywhere, and early risers had already begun packing up their stalls.

"Sister, I want to eat sweet cakes!" Sanchuan said with his little face raised.

"I want to eat Hu Bing!" Sihai immediately responded.

After Xu Yiyi had a simple breakfast with the children, she took them towards Zhechou Mansion.

Er'er was observing A Yue all the way, and indeed saw that her expression was becoming increasingly heavy.

When they arrived at the gate of Zhechou Mansion, two armored guards stopped them.

Xu Yiyi took out the tortoise talisman that Lin Ke gave her from her arms - a token made of bronze.

"Please inform Captain Lin that Xu Yiyi is here to visit." Xu Yiyi said respectfully.

The guard looked at the tortoise talisman, then looked at Xu Yiyi and the three children behind her who were looking around curiously. One of them turned and went into the mansion.

A Yue stood at the door with mixed feelings.

After a while, an attendant in light blue official uniform walked out quickly.

Xu Yiyi recognized him as Lin Ke's personal attendant Zhao Cheng.

"Boss Xu!"

Zhao Cheng's face was solemn as he welcomed the person in.

After walking through the corridor, he lowered his voice and said, "The captain has been injured and unconscious for four days."

Xu Yiyi's heart skipped a beat. No wonder she didn't receive a reply.
