Lu He recalled, "One month ago, after the young master's birthday party, my young lady said she felt sick to her stomach. I helped her go to the toilet and came back."

"I found the door was open. When I entered, I saw the young master lying on the ground motionless. The young lady was terrified and screamed loudly."

"On weekdays, the young master likes to stick with the young lady. The young lady also likes him very much. Although they are not born of the same mother, they have a good relationship."

"The young lady treated him like her own brother. Soon, the master and mistress arrived after hearing the news. They were both deeply saddened. That day, the mistress, who was always so kind to the young lady, suddenly slapped her."

"She also questioned why the young lady wanted to kill the young master. It was the master who stopped the lady and called a doctor to examine the young master. The doctor said that the young master died of suffocation and was not poisoned or injured."

"Since that night, the young lady's health has been getting worse day by day. She has seen many doctors but to no avail."

He Yue heard the key question and asked, "Isn't this lady Miss Guo's mother?"

Lu He shook her head. "My young lady's mother passed away shortly after giving birth to her. The current wife is the master's second wife. After entering the mansion, this wife has been very kind to everyone. My young lady also treats her as her own mother."

After hearing this, He Yue had some guesses in her mind, so she said to Lu He, "You stay here and watch over your young lady. She still needs to soak for about an hour. I have something else to discuss with Lord Guo."

Lu He nodded and said, "Okay, I will definitely take good care of my young lady."

He Yue came to the front hall and bowed to the Magistrate Guo who was sitting at the top of the table. He said, "Sir, Miss Guo needs to soak in the tub for about an hour before she can come out. After Miss Guo finishes her medicinal bath, she will need another room to recuperate in. We need to find another room with good ventilation and sunlight."

"The room that Miss Guo used to live in needs to be cleaned out completely. The black cloth on the curtains needs to be removed, the windows need to be opened, and it needs to be cleaned inside and out."

"And it needs to be smoked with charcoal and spices for ten days to half a month before people can live in it."

Magistrate Guo stood up and called out, "Lin Shi?"

Lin Shi, the housekeeper of the Guo residence, quickly came before County Magistrate Guo and bowed, "I am here, your humble servant."

County Magistrate Guo ordered, "You heard what Doctor He said. Take people to clean up Fangcao Pavilion immediately."

Steward Lin bowed and said, "Yes, I will go right away."

After Steward Lin led his men away, County Magistrate Guo looked at He Yue and said, "Thank you, Doctor He. Where is my daughter now, alone? Is there anyone to look after her?"

He Yue said, "Don't worry, my lord. Miss Guo's personal maid Lu He is guarding there."

Mrs. Guo stood up immediately after hearing this. "Lu He made a mistake. How can we let her go back to Lan Er to take care of her?"

He Yue said casually, "I see that Lu He is genuinely concerned about Miss Guo. On the contrary, some people are very disgusted with her and even don't want to clean Miss Guo's room. I know that Madam is worried about her safety. But Madam, it's better not to listen to one side of the story."

Mrs. Guo clenched her hands and looked at He Yue, "What do you mean, Doctor He?"

He Yue shook her head. "Nothing, just a friendly reminder to Madam."

When County Magistrate Guo heard what He Yue said, he immediately ordered someone to find the maids who had just been assigned to clean Miss Guo's room.

After finding out the reason after questioning a few maids, County Magistrate Guo angrily ordered Nanny Guan to sell them off.

County Magistrate Guo looked at Doctor Mo and his two disciples with embarrassment. Seeing He Yue's coarse linen clothes, which had become so messy after saving his daughter, he said with guilt, "Doctor He has worked so hard for my daughter that his clothes are dirty. I will have someone boil water for Doctor He to take a bath and change into clean clothes."

He Yue looked down and found that she was also smelling bad. She said without hesitation, "Thank you very much, sir."

County Magistrate Guo immediately ordered two maids to take He Yue to the guest house.

When He Yue was away, Doctor Mo had been explaining to County Magistrate Guo that he had only taken Miss Guo's pulse before. From the surface, it seemed that Miss Guo was anorexic, weak, and had taken a lot of tonic food, so she was unable to receive the tonic.

It also triggered some other symptoms. After a thorough examination from head to toe, He Yue discovered that Miss Guo was not suffering from anorexia, but from internal worms.

The various medicines she had been taking had made Ms. Guo even weaker.

Doctor Mo briefly told County Magistrate Guo his understanding of the medicine prescribed by He Yue.

County Magistrate Guo then realized that if a doctor had to distinguish between men and women when treating patients, it would really kill many people.

He was also lucky to have met a female doctor like He Yue, and he said to Doctor Mo with gratitude, "Doctor Mo really accepted a good apprentice! When my daughter recovers from her illness, I will definitely reward her handsomely."

Doctor Mo bowed and replied, "Your Excellency is too kind. It's just my duty as a doctor. I am also very fortunate to have such a good disciple."

When He Yue arrived at the guest house, a maid had already prepared hot water. He Yue looked at the two maids who were about to follow her in and said, "Sisters, I can do it alone. Please wait outside the door."

The two maids were also relieved and stopped immediately when they heard He Yue's words.

He Yue walked in, closed the door, and walked inside. There was a screen in front of her. Behind the screen was a bathtub. Next to the bathtub was a small table with a set of neatly folded clothes on it.

He Yue walked forward to test the water temperature, took off her clothes, and entered the tub to wash comfortably.

He Yue sighed, "Alas, it's a pity that there is no shower gel, my fragrant shower gel."

He Yue rubbed her body with water. There were some flower petals in the water. He Yue smelled it and found that besides the fragrance of the flower petals, there was some other fragrance.

He Yue thought that perhaps this was a wealthy family and would put some flower petals and spices in the bath.

This spice has some cleansing effect. He Yue sighed that even without shower gel, a bath with flower petals and spices is much better than just taking a bath with water in the village.

He Yue finished washing quickly and changed into the clean dress next to her. The dress was mainly light pink, giving people a fresh and sweet feeling.

The top adopts a double-breasted design, with the neckline and cuffs embroidered with exquisite patterns. The skirt is a long pleated skirt with the hem dragging on the ground, swaying gracefully when walking.

The skirt is embroidered with blooming flowers, which echo the pattern of the top, making the whole look more harmonious and unified.

A pink ribbon tied around the waist not only serves as a decoration, but also highlights the woman's slender waist.

Although this ancient dress is simple, it is very beautiful, showing the woman's elegance and charming charm.

There was also a pair of shoes, which were not very beautiful, but much better than his own pair of shoes that were so worn out that they could not be worn out anymore.
