Princess In Prosperous Age - C91 Backyard Strategy

Arriving at the madame’s courtyard, Qiao Liangjin found the doctor standing outside the door in the corridor. He frowned and said, “What’s going on? How can the doctor be at the door?”

The doctor could only shake his head with a depressed expression on his face. Finally, he clasped his hands together and said, “This old man is useless. I’ll have to invite the prime minister to treat you with something else.”

Qiao Liangjin pushed open the door, looked at the few people who were sitting inside and asked: “What happened? “Doctor Bai has always been taking care of Old Madam. Why is he standing outside the door today? How did you two entertain Doctor Bai?”

Yun Chu was taking care of the madame, and upon hearing Qiao Liangjin’s question, he quickly replied, “Doctor Bai doesn’t know why the madame suddenly fainted, so …” At this point, his eyes drifted over to Qiao Mao Shan who was sitting upright.

At this point, Qiao Maoshan already had the appearance of a filial son, snorting: “Insolent doctor, I don’t know how you took the silver from our house, but you can’t even tell what the old lady’s illness is.”

Qiao Liangjin was delighted. Of course, they did not know that if there were any martial arts in this room, they would be able to tell that he had pointed at the old mistress’ acupoints. Unfortunately, this room was filled with scholars.

Qiao Liangjin turned around and pulled the doctor’s medicine box, and entered the room. Although the doctor was old, he still had a tough character, and refused to put down the medicine box. He kept repeating the words he had just said: “This old man is useless, please find someone else.”

Qiao Zheng glared at Qiao Maoshan and calmly said: “Doctor Bai, foolish brother has offended you. Please forgive him. Please let the madame have a look.”

The doctor was furious at first and was ready to leave when the first minister arrived. He did not expect Qiao Zheng’s tone to be so respectful as his anger vanished without a trace. Putting down the medicine box on his shoulder, he muttered: “Fine, on account of the first minister, this old man will see it again.”

Qiao Liangjin approached the madame with a smile. While everyone’s eyes were on the old doctor, she touched the acupoint and felt the body of the man beneath her quiver again.

The old doctor sat down and started to check her pulse. He then took out a silver needle and pierced it into the old mistress’ acupoint. Not long later, he heard the old lady moaning.

The doctor pulled out a needle and said, “The madame is too old. It is cold. Don’t go out and catch cold. Take care of her in this room.”

Qiao Liangjin asked softly, “Yunchu, Wen’er, did you all hear that?”

Yun Chu quickly replied, “This servant understands.”

Qiao Liangjin glanced at Wen’er and threatened her, “Wen’er, you have to make sure that no one is worried. If the madame falls again like this, I might cause you trouble.”

Her voice was soft and gentle, but it was like a sharp knife that stabbed into Wen’er’s heart.

Qiao Liangjin was a smart person. During the days at the Prime Minister’s Estate, she had long figured out the thoughts of everyone else.

After asking A’Bai to send the old doctor out, she turned and looked at Qiao Mao Shan. She smiled and said: “Second Uncle, why don’t you take care of the madame tonight? “My dad has been busy outside for the whole day, but you see, there’s nothing much to do other than playing. Now, I can use you.”

Qiao Zheng coughed twice when he heard Qiao Liangjin’s words. “Jin’er.”

Qiao Liangjin acted as if he did not know what was going on. He blinked his eyes and asked with a smile: “What’s wrong? Father? Did you catch a cold outside? Did you catch a cold? “Then go rest.”

He then called for Ah Kuan, “Send the old master back to rest.”

When Qiao Maoshan heard that Qiao Zheng was leaving to take care of the old granny lying on the bed, he thought to himself that it would be good if nothing happened to her. If she had gotten sick in the middle of the night and something happened to her, he would take responsibility.

Qiao Liangjin knew what Qiao Maoshan was thinking and smiled, “Second Uncle, the madame is your own mother, and the one she loves the most is you.”

Lin Fangli also echoed, “Our family’s Mao Shan is still taking care of people. He can’t even take care of himself.”

Qiao Liangjin’s gaze fell on Qiao Zhijun, who was rubbing his chattering stomach. He smiled and said, “Then how about you let second brother take care of him?”

Qiao Zhijun was stunned. He didn’t expect Qiao Liangjin to find him. He waved his hand and said, “I have no ability to take care of people. Forget it. When Old Madam wakes up, I can talk to her.”

Qiao Liangjin spread out his hands and looked at the people in the room. He smiled and said, “Look, no one wants to be here, right?”

Qiao Zheng sighed and patted Qiao Liangjin’s shoulder, his voice tinged with fatigue. “Fine then, let me take care of the madame. You can all go rest.”

As if he had received a special pardon, he hurriedly stood up, holding Qiao Zhiyong in one hand and Lin Fangli in the other, as he walked towards the door, he said, “Then Big Brother, thank you for your trouble. We haven’t had any dinner, we’ll definitely come when Old Madam tomorrow wakes up.”

After a while, the family of three was no longer to be seen.

Qiao Liangjin yawned and said, “The madame is fine. Eldest brother, you must work hard today and take care of her with father.”

Qiao Ruo Ying had always treated her little sister as a god. She nodded and focused on sitting by the bed, staring at the madame.

Qiao Liangjin thought about it for a moment and decided to leave the makeup with the madame. After giving her orders, he returned to the Golden Flower Pavilion with Purple Smoke.

Just as he walked into the Flowergold Pavilion, he saw a lady dressed in purple standing at the entrance. Qiao Liangjin’s brows were slightly knitted. Why did this Caihe come to his doorstep?

When Caihe saw Qiao Liangjin from afar, she hurried over. Before she even reached him, she had already bowed and said, “Your servant greets Miss.”

Qiao Liangjin raised his hand, indicating for her to stand up and asked: “Why are you here? Isn’t it supposed to be in Eldest Young Master’s courtyard? ”

On the other hand, Caihe calmly replied, “I haven’t seen Eldest Young Master today. Presumably, he is waiting for me at the Golden Flower Pavilion.”

Qiao Liangjin chuckled. “Ha, alright. However, Eldest Young Master will be serving the Old Mistress today. You should go back and take a good rest. It will be hard on you when Eldest Young Master returns tomorrow.”

Caihe didn’t say anything else as she turned and left the Golden Flower Pavilion.

Zi Yan looked at Caihe’s back and frowned. “Why do I feel like this Caihe is weird?”

Qiao Liangjin let out a cold laugh. He did not make a sound as he entered the courtyard and heard Yu Cheng’s laughter.

Qiao Liangjin shook his head helplessly and sighed. This Yu Sheng did not care if there were people coveting him.

The moment he pushed open the door, he saw Yu Sheng obediently sitting in front of his desk, holding a book and copying something. Spirit Swirl was beside him, watching him write with a flushed face.

Qiao Liangjin untied his cloak, and the purple smoke behind him took the cloak and hung it on the side.

Qiao Liangjin walked in front of the desk. Without even looking at what Yu Sheng was writing, she gently flipped through the books on the desk and said, “How rare. I heard your laughter at the door just now and the moment you entered, you started learning how to write. I really want to test you and see if you’ve learnt how to write.”

Yuesheng’s brush stopped somewhere and large drops of ink dripped onto the xuan paper. Gradually, they turned into a ball and covered the words.

Qiao Liangjin raised his eyebrows and looked at the piece of paper and laughed, “Yo, so you are drawing, or is it ink? But, what does a drop of ink mean?”

The Spirit Swirling Swirl was amused by Qiao Liangjin’s words. It could not help but laugh out loud. However, it saw Yu Sheng looking at him with hidden bitterness, biting its lips as he held back his laughter.

He pouted unhappily and said, “I have cultivated for eight hundred years and have never thought of writing. It’s truly been eight hundred years of bad luck that I managed to forge a blood contract with you. To think that you were able to force me to write.”

Qiao Liangjin walked around the desk to Yu Sheng’s side. Looking at his writing, he smiled faintly and said, “It’s said that demon spirits are heartless and hard to tame. What about you, Yu Sheng?”

When Yu Sheng heard this, he fell silent for a moment before answering, “I’ll write.”

Qiao Liangjin yawned and went to the back of the screen. He took off his plump clothes, changed into a light undergarment and walked out.

However, Yu Sheng took out a pen and paper and began writing on the paper seriously.

Spirit Swirl walked to the side as well, taking out a piece of paper and writing along with Yu Sheng.

Qiao Liangjin sat at the side, accompanying the two little imps in practicing calligraphy. Only when it was late at night did he let the two little imps go to sleep.

She blew out the candle with a tired breath and lazily threw herself onto the bed. She then covered her belly with the blanket and yawned. After that, she turned around and fell asleep.

When he woke up, Qiao Liangjin suddenly remembered that he said that he would accompany Guo Caiting and Qiao Xinting to pay respects to the madame. He hurriedly got up, stood at the door, and called for Ziyan to wash up.

Zi Yan was carrying a basin of hot water as she walked over. She asked in bewilderment, “Miss, if the sky is bright, you’ll wake up.”

Qiao Liangjin nodded and said, “Hurry up, is Xingran here?”

Zi Yan looked towards the door and shook her head.

Qiao Liangjin turned around and went back to wash up. After he was done, he heard Ah Kuan knocking on the door and said: “Miss, Fifth Miss is already at the door.”

Qiao Liangjin put on his cloak and went out. The snow had stopped and the sun had come out, but the weather had turned even colder. Qiao Xinting stood at the door waiting for Qiao Liangjin with her face flushed red again.

Qiao Liangjin walked to Qiao Xinting’s side and pulled her cloak tighter. He reproached: “Why don’t you go in and call me? Don’t wait for me at the door next time, where’s your mother?”

Qiao Xinting pointed in the direction of the old lady’s courtyard and said, “My mother is already there.”

Only then did Qiao Liangjin pull Qiao Xinting towards the old mistress’ courtyard.

Entering the house, Qiao Zheng and Qiao Ruoyin wore large, dark circles under their eyes. Their listless and listless appearance caused Qiao Liangjin’s heart to ache for them.

She asked softly, “Has the madame woken up?”

Qiao Zheng nodded his head and said: “I woke up but then I fell asleep again. He asked me where Mao Shan was and went back to sleep.”

Qiao Liangjin smiled lightly and walked over to the madame’s side. He gently shook the madame’s arm and called out softly, “Madame, please wake up.”
