Jingxiangyuan is located next to the male protagonist Qinglianyuan, which is very close to the male protagonist, but Li Mofu has never seen the male protagonist once since he came to this world.
Five days have passed since Li Mofu left Mo Yi behind. During these five days, Li Mofu had been eating Chinese medicine in addition to three meals a day.
Apart from that, I spent most of my time sitting in the rocking chair in the yard listening to Guozi read or sleeping.
The male protagonist seemed to be avoiding suspicion, going out early and returning late as if he was afraid of being caught by Li Mofu.
If Li Mofu had not gotten up at night to look for food and seen the lights on in the yard next door, he would have thought that the male protagonist was farming in some paradise again.
But it is also possible that she has just returned from the land of comfort. After all, the heroine will have to fight in the house when she marries in. There are only one or two women in the backyard, so the heroine will not have the energy to fight.
During these five days, people were sent from Aunt Bai's yard twice.
The first one was about three sturdy maids. They probably thought that there were few people in Li Mofu's yard and he was easy to bully. So they just bullied this "male wife" who came from the countryside and had never seen the world, and he became scared and "forgave" Aunt Bai.
Speaking of this, Li Mofu couldn't help but admire this brainless concubine Bai. This matter had already been reported to the male protagonist, but she still dared to use such means.
It's really like being used as a knife by others and still thinking you are awesome.
As for the person who instigated Aunt Bai behind her, Li Mofu could guess without even thinking that it was the male protagonist's stepmother.
There are only a few people who have the final say in this mansion. Who else but her would be so jealous of the male protagonist?
What a pity, even he, an outsider, could see such an obvious thing, but the general who was drunk in the arms of a woman could not see it.
However, Li Mofu's status in this mansion is too delicate, and it is normal for him to be bullied and despised.
However, this also proves one thing, that is, not everyone knows that Li Mofu is holding the male protagonist's life.
At least Aunt Bai doesn't know.
As soon as the three burly maids entered the yard, they tried to tie up Li Mofu, but were beaten and sold off by Mo Yi who was guarding the side.
The servant guarding the gate outside was also sold.
The people guarding the gate were the servants of the mansion. Li Mofu didn't understand why the male protagonist wanted to use them.
However, Li Mofu knew that these servants were most likely bribed by the eldest lady Lin, but they didn't know much and sold their lives to others without knowing what was going on.
But what can they do? They have no choice but to accept it.
After all, she is the eldest lady of the mansion and the master.
Moreover, these servants were all the eldest lady's people, and their indentures were in her hands.
There is no way around it. There are only two people in Li Mofu's courtyard, both sent by the male protagonist. They say they are there to serve him and protect him, but in fact they are just monitoring him.
In the fight between masters, the slaves are the ones who suffer in the end. No matter what choice is made, they will be the ones who are sacrificed.
Li Mofu understood.
So what if it’s understandable?
What is the difference between him and those who were sold?
Wasn't he also bought here?
Who can pity whom?
Perhaps because he suffered the most the first time, Aunt Bai sent a delicate girl the second time, who was said to be the male protagonist's concubine.
The girl was stopped outside by the servants. No one paid any attention to her no matter how she shouted, so she started crying.
Li Mofu was too lazy to talk about such a method. This was not crying for him to see, this was crying for the male protagonist to see.
Unfortunately, the male protagonist was afraid of him, and this delicate girl fainted from crying before she could wait for the male protagonist to come back.
On the sixth day, Li Mofu's dizziness was not as severe. Except for feeling dizzy when he overused his brain, he was normal at other times.
"Mr. Li, it's time to take your medicine." Guozi came over with a white porcelain bowl as big as his head, filled with dark brown medicinal soup.
Li Mofu, who was lying in the yard basking in the sun, could smell the Chinese medicine from a distance. It was both unpleasant and unpalatable.
"I don't want to drink it anymore! It tastes bitter and astringent, and the quantity is too much. I'm going to die sooner or later in the Marquis' Mansion anyway, so drinking less can save me money on medicine." This was Li Mofu's daily catchphrase. He really wanted to vomit from drinking.
Guozi has gotten used to hearing this these days. Li Mofu is like a self-destructive person. Although he keeps talking about death, he always drinks up all the medicine when he is coaxed.
I gave up, but not completely.
"I have prepared some sweet candied fruits for you, you can eat them after you finish drinking them." Guozi placed the bowl of Chinese medicine on the small table next to the rocking chair, then took out a bag of candies wrapped in oil paper from his arms.
The sweet smell suddenly floated out from the oil paper and kept drilling into Li Mofu's nose.
Li Mofu opened one eye, looked at the fruit, and then closed it again. He let out a long sigh.
The male protagonist gave six thousand taels of silver notes and five small gold leaves as an apology last time. To be honest, this is already a huge sum of money.
Whether it is for the male protagonist or for Li Mofu.
But, it was like waste paper in Li Mofu's hand.
Because he couldn't go out, there was no one around him who would go out to do things for him, even if it was just to buy some snacks.
In the past few days, Li Mofu had been eating very light meals because of his illness, so light that he would always wake up hungry in the middle of the night.
This sweet preserved fruit is the best thing Li Mofu has eaten in the past few days. He relies on this little bit of preserved fruit to satisfy his cravings every day.
But this Chinese medicine is too bitter, and it is too unpalatable to eat the porridge every day. Li Mofu can't even chew it.
So he chose to give up.
Thinking of this, Li Mofu closed his eyes and pulled the quilt around him. He would just fall asleep. Everything would happen in his dreams.
Guozi was a little surprised to see this, so he tried to persuade Li Mofu a few more times, but Li Mofu ignored him.
Finally, seeing that Li Mofu had really fallen asleep, Guozi had to give up trying to persuade him.
He moved the umbrella cover that was used to block the sun behind the rocking chair, ensuring that Li Mofu's body could be exposed to the sun while preventing the sun from shining on Li Mofu's face and affecting his sleep.
This umbrella cover was taken from the young master...
Li Mofu fell asleep and started dreaming again. He was used to it, but the feeling was still not pleasant. He frowned deeply.
Guozi, who was standing by, stroked his brows, but soon frowned again.
Guozi had no choice but to take the preserved fruits and Chinese medicine back first, otherwise they would be covered with dust and not clean.
The sun was about to set when Mo Yi came back from outside. He had just gone to supervise the people in the kitchen of the mansion to prepare medicinal food.
"Guard Mo, you're back." Guozi greeted him softly when he saw him come back.
Mo Yi nodded, "How many times did Master Li take medicine today?"
Guozi looked at Mo Yi awkwardly, "...Sir, you haven't drunk it once."
"..." Mo Yi was stunned while holding the food box, "What?"
Guozi quickly explained, "The young master seems to have been hurt by drinking. Even if we tempted him with preserved fruit, he wouldn't drink."
"How can this be possible?" Mo Yi thought of his young master who had been suffering from headaches from time to time these days. "Please persuade him again. He must take this medicine."
Guozi's face turned bitter. "These days, he's been eating four large bowls of Chinese medicine every day, and he also has to eat medicinal food. Master Li didn't eat anything today, and he only took two bites of the medicinal food at noon."
"Nonsense!" Mo Yi felt that Li Mofu was making trouble for his young master, and he frowned and was about to walk towards the backyard.
Guozi quickly grabbed Mo Yi and said, "Guard Mo, don't be impulsive! Master Li has been very depressed lately. If he gets provoked, he might get a headache again."
It doesn’t matter if Li Mofu has a headache, but if he has a headache, the young master will also have a headache!
Mo Yi had no choice but to stop and ask, "He won't take the medicine, and won't eat the medicinal food. What does he want to do?"
"Mr. Li woke up in the morning and started talking about eating meat, roasted chicken, mouth-watering chicken, beggar's chicken. In short, he wanted to eat chicken." Guozi said.
Mo Yi's hand holding the food box was throbbing with veins, and he inexplicably wanted to hit someone, "...I'll go ask the young master."
The light diet was ordered by the young master. Although Doctor Su also mentioned it, he did not force it, but only said it was the best.
The young master naturally gave Li Mofu the best instructions, and the reason was very simple. He wanted Li Mofu to recover quickly.
Since Li Mofu wanted to break it, he naturally had to ask the young master.
Guozi said worriedly, "Guard Mo should go and ask quickly. The young master hasn't eaten for a day. If he has stomach problems again..."
"..." Mo Yi handed the medicinal food to Guozi with a dark face, and left the front yard again.
====
Lu Mingyun, who had been hiding in the study these days, didn't look very well. He had a headache after reading for a long time.
Qinglian Courtyard is too close to Jingxiang Courtyard, and he knows how the people sent by Bai Wanting have been making trouble and causing trouble in the past few days.
His study is on the far right side of the third floor, facing east. It is the farthest from Shizuka-in Temple and is difficult to be found, whether the lights are on or not.
When Mo Yi found Nanny Lin, who had served Li Mofu before, she was already dead in the abandoned well in the mansion.
Lu Mingyun knew that she was silenced and he also knew who was behind her, but he had no evidence.
Lin had disliked him for a long time, but the woman had no way to deal with him. After all, the son she gave birth to was not as good as him in every way.
His father was also somewhat rational and valued him very much, so he did not accept Lin's pillow talk.
However, the Lin family could not do anything to him, but could easily kill Li Mofu.
In recent years, the Marquis's attention has been outside the mansion. After so many years, he seems to have forgotten that memory and feels that Li Mofu is dispensable.
Thinking of this, Lu Mingyun lowered his eyes and sighed. Before the abnormality occurred, he also felt that Li Mofu was dispensable.
But the facts proved that Li Mofu was still his weak point, and he was really hanging on his own life.
Bai Wanting was a beauty sent by someone else. Lin forced her in, and with his father's persuasion, Lu Mingyun accepted her.
But he didn't expect that this woman was so stupid and became a sword for the Lin family.
Lu Mingyun had two concubines and one beautiful concubine, all of whom had very humble status.
He was not a hesitant person. Logically speaking, Bai Wanting should have been beaten to death for doing such a thing.
But Bai Wanting was pregnant.
This was Lu Mingyun's first child, so he hesitated and finally just ordered people to lock her up.
But Bai Wanting was really restless and had no tact at all. She continued to provoke Lu Mingyun under Lin's instigation.
Yesterday, Lu Mingyun sold out all the people around her and replaced them with his own people to guard the place. The concubine who helped her was also sold out.
Today, he finally got a chance to catch his breath, but he didn't expect that Mo Yi would come to him just as the sun was about to set.
