The day her husband welcomed the time-traveling girl into the house, she woke up

After Aunt Gui left, Kong Sanniang glanced at Lin Yuan unhappily and said, "You can finally get to be with the young lady as you wished. You must be very happy, right?"

Lin Yuan turned his head and whispered, "I'm not very happy..."

"Really? Then why are the corners of your mouth curled up so high?"

"..."

Lin Yuan immediately pursed his lips and turned his head away a little.

Kong Sanniang shook her head in amusement and took out a pair of peacock earrings identical to the ones Nanny Gui had brought. She stroked the feathers and said with relief, "Luckily, I suddenly felt dizzy and short of breath before leaving this morning, so I had to delay my departure. Otherwise, I would have missed the people sent by the young lady!"

Lin Yuan nodded slightly in agreement.

Sanniang's illness has reached a point where it can no longer be treated.

Therefore, if Sanniang left the capital today, even if everyone in the building knew the importance of the peacock earrings, they would not chase her out of the capital to pass on the message.

Because the place where the miracle doctor is located is quite far away from the capital, and for the sake of Sanniang's safety, they cannot delay for another day.

In addition, after leaving the city gate, they will take turns carrying Sanniang on their backs and rush to the place where the miracle doctor is as quickly as possible. Those who are good at light work in the building are among them, and the rest of the people will not be able to catch up with them.

When Xiao Ba rushed to the city gate and found them, it was already their turn to be inspected and leave the city.

If we were a step later, we wouldn’t know how long we would have to wait for them to return to Beijing.

Although the maid who just came said that someone might just want to murder the young lady, judging from the three things the master told Sanniang before his death, the danger the young lady is facing now or in the future is definitely not an ordinary one.

If Sanniang takes several months, or even longer, to seek medical treatment outside the capital before returning, she will surely fail to fulfill her master's trust.

Therefore, it is more than just a matter of joy, one can even say that the master is still alive in the afterlife...

As he was thinking about this, he caught a glimpse of Sanniang handing him the pair of earrings from the corner of his eye, and he quickly turned around to catch them with both hands.

Then Sanniang lowered her voice and said to him, "Besides me, you are the only one who knows about the three things the master entrusted to me. However, before I return to the capital, you must not mention a single word to the young lady. Of course...if I die from my illness, you can decide for yourself when to tell the young lady."

"Yes……"

Lin Yuan frowned slightly.

Although they had been looking for that miracle doctor for many years, they were still not sure whether the miracle doctor could cure Sanniang's illness.

If that miraculous doctor is also helpless against Sanniang's illness...

"Alright, kid, stop acting like I'm doomed in front of me! In my master's words, I'm the indestructible cockroach with a strong life force! Go pack up and get back to the young lady!"

"Um……"

"Remember, you must do your utmost to protect the young lady! And no matter what the young lady's instructions are, you must follow them and complete them! Otherwise, you will be dead when I come back!"

"Yes!"

A quarter of an hour later, Lin Yuan packed a small bag and saw Kong Sanniang off at the back door of Peacock Terrace, then went to the Dingbei Marquis Mansion.

Although he had never been to the Dingbei Marquis Mansion, he had already memorized the map of the Dingbei Marquis Mansion by heart.

I can almost draw it with my eyes closed.

But after he sneaked into the Dingbei Marquis Mansion without anyone noticing, he did not go straight to Li Shu's bamboo garden, but wandered around the Dingbei Marquis Mansion first.

Only after confirming that the guards in the Dingbei Marquis's Mansion were all good-for-nothings and that he could come and go freely at any time with his skills, did he go to the Bamboo Garden.

When he arrived at the back window of Li Shu's bedroom, Nanny Gui had just returned.

While Li Shu turned her head to look outside, he climbed in through the window and hid behind the screen.

Then Nanny Gui quickly walked into the room.

"Madam! This old servant has seen Kong Sanniang at the Peacock Terrace. She's a beautiful woman under forty, and the owner of the Peacock Terrace. Unfortunately, she has to leave the capital to seek medical treatment today, so she can't come see you. However, she will send a man named Lin Yuan to protect the young lady. She said that man's skills are among the best in the capital!"

"Leave the capital to seek medical treatment..."

"Yes! It is said that she has been bedridden for many years. Her disease is so rare that she has sought treatment from famous doctors but to no avail. She is already on her deathbed. And the miracle doctor she is leaving the capital to find seems to be the only one in the world who can possibly cure her!"

"Is that so? Then we really can't delay even a moment. So... when will that person called Lin Yuan arrive?"

"Mrs. Kong Sanniang only said that he would quietly come to the mansion to see Madam from now on, but she didn't specify when he would come. Then she asked the old servant to bring back the pair of peacock earrings, saying that if Madam liked them, she could wear them occasionally, but if she didn't, she could keep them."

"Yeah……"

Li Shu murmured as she took the pair of peacock earrings, looked at them intently for a few seconds, and subconsciously stroked the feathers on them.

She was less than five years old when her mother gave her the pair of peacock earrings and repeatedly told her that if she encountered danger in the future, she could take them to Peacock Terrace to find Kong Sanniang.

Although she had been very obedient since her childhood and remembered her mother's words well, and hid them in the makeup box as her mother asked, in her dream, because her husband, father and brothers all sided with Xie Yu, she was constantly misunderstood, scolded and punished. She was in a state of mental exhaustion for a long time. It was not until her reputation was ruined, she was seriously ill and had no one around her that she remembered in despair and helplessness that her mother said that the pair of peacock earrings were an important item that could save her life.

However, her makeup box had already become Xie Yu's property.

Everyone was on guard against her from hurting Xie Yu. Not to mention getting the peacock earrings back from Xie Yu, she couldn't even get close to Xie Yu's residence.

She fell into the dream because she heard herself muttering about the earrings too many times, so she placed her hopes on the earrings... no, it was that Kong Sanniang that could become the key for her to change her own destiny.

I hope Kong Sanniang can successfully recover from her illness and return to Beijing soon.

After thinking about it, she handed the earrings to Aunt Gui and said, "Put them back where they belong. You can wear them when you have the chance."

"Yes."

Nanny Gui took it and put it away.

Then Qinghong and Cuiwei brought in lunch.

Li Shu had no appetite and wanted them to leave first.

But before she opened her mouth, she remembered that abortion was very harmful to the body, so she forced herself to eat some.

Then, just as she put down her chopsticks, a maid brought in three uninvited guests.

Nanny Xiang and two little maids were sitting beside Ning Jin's mother.

"This old servant greets the Crown Prince's wife."

"This servant greets the Crown Prince's wife."

Li Shu raised her hand slightly, and heard Nanny Xiang say with a smile: "Yesterday, on the fifteenth day of the lunar month, our princess rested in the Buddhist temple as usual. Today, when she returned to Qingfeng Courtyard, she learned that the Crown Prince's wife fell into the water when she entered the palace for a banquet yesterday, and that the Crown Prince took Miss Xie, who fell into the water with the Crown Prince's wife, into the mansion last night to take care of these two things. The princess said that the Crown Prince is a man of great loyalty and righteousness, which is why he took Miss Xie, his savior, into the mansion to take care of her. She hoped that the Crown Prince's wife would not overthink it and would bear with her. She also said that she believed that the Crown Prince's wife and Miss Xie's fall into the water was just an accident, and she would definitely find out the truth and make a decision on his behalf."

Li Shu had heard these words once in her dream.

I've heard many, many similar ones.

Because every time she was misunderstood, wronged, and criticized by thousands of people, Ning Jin's mother would stand by her side.

He was the only one who stood on her side.

But she waited and waited, until the stigma on her body became so numerous that it could never be cleared away, and she still didn't wait for the decision to be made for her, something she had heard countless times.

Later on, she found out that although Ning Jin's mother treated her daughter-in-law like her own daughter on the surface, she was actually jealous and resentful of her to the core.

I was jealous that she didn't compete with the concubines for jealousy or scheme.

I hate her for preventing Ning Jin from taking a concubine, and preventing him from having children like other princes...

Thinking of this, Li Shu lowered her eyes, hiding the dark light rising in her eyes.

Her eyes were very red and her complexion was not very good, so in Nanny Xiang's eyes, she looked like she was about to cry.

Therefore, Xiang Ma Ma hurriedly said, "Although the Crown Prince's wife has always been in good health and rarely catches a cold, the princess is still worried that she might have caught a cold after falling into the water yesterday. Isn't it..."

As Nanny Xiang spoke, she moved aside and pointed to the trays in the hands of the two maids. "The princess asked me and the other two servants to bring some supplements to the Crown Prince's wife. Please take good care of yourself."

"Mother, you are so thoughtful. I am indeed feeling a little unwell today. Please tell me that I will not be visiting Qingfeng Courtyard to pay my respects in the next few days, so as not to pass my illness on to you."

"Yes, then the three old servants will take their leave first."

After saying this, Nanny Xiang led the two of them back a few steps, and then Qinghong Cuiwei stepped forward to take the things.

What Li Shu didn't know was.

The three men left her bamboo garden and walked a short distance before they stopped at Nanny Xiang and frowned deeply.

She really needs to change her soft-hearted nature!

Seeing the Crown Prince's wife's eyes so red and as if she was about to cry, she couldn't bear to say what the princess had said to the Crown Prince's wife, telling her not to burn the Crown Prince's clothes in the future!

Ugh!

I hope the princess won’t blame her when she returns!
