The reborn sweet girl always wants to escape, but the abstinent prince hugs her and coaxes her!

Not wanting to drag others down, this was not the first time Luo Xiao mentioned it to her daughter.

That's why she went to get the medicine in disguise today. She sniffed and said: "My daughter knows, mother, please take the medicine quickly. The prescription in Shulang will definitely be very useful..."

Outside the Guandi Temple, Xu Rongrong and Mu Rong looked at each other.

Just now, Xu Rongrong had countless thoughts flashing through her mind. She had wondered whether it was because Luo Xiao had a strong temper that he didn't want her to know her current embarrassment, or because of her face, she didn't want others to see her current embarrassment. …

But he didn't expect that the other party just wanted to avoid dragging him down.

Even in this embarrassing situation, he would rather drag his sick body and take his daughter to suffer in the abandoned Guandi Temple than let her and the people around her know.

Listening to the intermittent coughing in Guandi Temple, Xu Rong couldn't bear it anymore.

She pushed the door open and walked in: "Mrs. Luo and I share life and death, so why should we be a drag?"

Her sudden appearance caught the two people in the temple by surprise and they were stunned on the spot.

Luo Yuqi was the first to react, and she stood up suddenly.

Looking at Xu Rongrong and Mu Rong behind her, her eyes turned red with grievance, and she murmured: "County Lord..."

Xu Rongrong walked over, took out the handkerchief and wiped the dirt from her face, then put her in his arms and said softly: "Silly girl, your mother is so sick, why don't you want to go to me?"

Hearing this, Luo Yuqi cried sadly in Xu Rongrong's arms, as if she wanted to vent all her grievances after the separation.

Luo Xiao was half-leaning in the corner, with red eyes.

She knew that her daughter's whereabouts must have been revealed just now when she went to ask for medicine, but she didn't expect... the county lord came so quickly.

Seeing her daughter's aggrieved look, and seeing that the county master cared so much about them, she doubted her previous knowledge for a while.

What she just said to her daughter was indeed what she was thinking.

But there is one thing she has not said out loud, that is, what she has experienced in the past six months or so has made her believe that if you want to get something, you must pay in equal measure.

She treats others like this, and she treats the county lord like this.

She led the way back to Yuzhou for the county lord, in exchange for Shu Langzhong treating her daughter; she helped as much as she could, in exchange for the county lord accompanying her and entering Beijing safely.

But now, she is so poor that she has nothing left to give.

Even her family can abandon her and hurt her, let alone the head of Ping'an County whom she has never met before?

Unexpectedly, just when she was desperate, the county lord appeared and stood in front of her personally.

Seeing Xu Rongrong holding her daughter in her arms and gently patting her back to comfort her, Luo Xiao couldn't say a word.

Mu Rong, who had been watching for a long time, slowly came over and said, "Mrs. Luo, please take the medicine while it's hot. Don't let your daughter's heart down."

Luo Xiao nodded, picked up the medicine bowl and drank it all in one gulp.

As the warm liquid entered her mouth, she felt as if her internal organs were clear, and her chest soon no longer felt as tight as before.

After all...it's Shu Langzhong.

And here, Luo Yuqi sat down next to Xu Rongrong while burping.

Looking at her bony hands, it's not difficult to imagine the embarrassment they have experienced in the past two months, but... it clearly shouldn't be like this.

Xu Rongrong held Luo Yuqi's hand and asked, "Where are your relatives in Beijing?"

Seeing her mention it, Luo Yuqi's already red eyes turned redder. She gritted her teeth and said, "After I separated from the county master, my mother took me to find my aunt. Because my uncle was on duty at the Yamen, my aunt's life was ruined. She is also rich. Seeing that my mother is very good at playing the pipa, she invited us to stay and promised to help us find a job at the Jingzhong Art Museum in the spring."

"I just didn't expect... On the second day after we stayed, my uncle took a break at home because of the government seal. He often found excuses to come to our yard. At first, we only felt that something was wrong, but after all, our aunt was in charge of the house, so we didn't think much about it. . But who would have thought that on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, he would actually break into our room drunk while my aunt was out admiring the lanterns..."

"My mother slapped him and drove him out. But who would have thought that he got so angry that he slapped her down, and when my aunt came back, he... then framed my mother, saying... saying..." Luo Yuqi couldn't continue.

Xu Rongrong could imagine how the other party slandered her. She held Luo Yuqi's hand: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, it's all over."

Luo Yuqi wiped her tears: "My mother wanted to explain, but my aunt kicked us out without even waiting for us to speak. She also took away my mother's pipa and said... that she would prevent us from going... again. Go seduce people and disgrace the Xiao family..."

"How unreasonable!" Xu Rongrong said angrily.

On the other side, Mrs. Luo Xiao was also a little excited. She coughed again, and Luo Yuqi quickly went over to calm her breath.

Xu Rongrong asked: "I heard you say before that there are many relatives in Beijing. Apart from this aunt, don't you have anywhere else to go?"

"It turns out that there is an aunt in Beijing, but...the eldest aunt said that she was dragged away by her husband's family and left the capital, so we couldn't find her," Luo Yuqi said.

Luo Xiao finally regained her composure. She held her daughter's thin arm and looked at Xu Rongrong with a look of shame on her face: "You are causing trouble to the county master."

Xu Rongrong looked at her: "Don't say such words again in the future. If I thought it was troublesome, I wouldn't come today."

While the two were talking, footsteps came from outside Guandi Temple again.

Luo Yuqi heard the movement and trembled subconsciously.

Xu Rongrong felt a little distressed when she saw this: It can be imagined that during these days in Guandi Temple, this girl must have been living in fear.

She comforted: "Don't be afraid, he is one of ours."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard Mu Wu's voice: "Sir, my subordinate has brought the royal doctor."

"Come in." Mu Rong said solemnly.

The royal doctor came in carrying a medicine box.

He had never seen the Luo mother and daughter before, and had never heard anyone mention them.Now seeing them huddled in the corner, thin and weak, they glanced at Mu Rong with a slightly suspicious look: In the past half year or so, Mr. Hou... has actually made a lot of friends outside.

Seeing that he was looking at him instead of asking for a diagnosis, Mu Rong frowned: "What are you doing in a daze? Go and check your pulse quickly."

The doctor in the palace complained: You are so cruel, you should give me a salary!

But after all, the doctor was kind-hearted, and seeing the sick look on the woman's face, the palace doctor silently took out the pulse pillow and walked over.

After a moment, he looked serious: "This lady... I'm afraid she's contracted tuberculosis."

tuberculosis? !Everyone's heart skipped a beat.

Luo Yuqi was so frightened that she trembled all over: "How could it be! My mother just coughed a little worse... Why, how could she be infected with tuberculosis..."

The palace doctor looked at him: "You two, mother and daughter, are now seriously malnourished, especially your mother who is worried and sad, which is why the cough turned into tuberculosis."

"What should I do?" Luo Yuqi was so frightened that she almost cried.

Xu Rongrong's nervous voice was trembling: "Can this disease be cured?"

The palace doctor glanced at Xu Rongrong: "The county master also knows that tuberculosis is the most difficult disease among all cough diseases. Now we need to move this lady to a place with a better environment, and then conduct isolation treatment."

"Go to my place." Xu Rongrong said hurriedly.

"No." Mu Rong said solemnly.
