The temperature has dropped recently, and Gong Ruixue originally felt that her hands were a little cold, so she warmed her hands with a warm breath before feeling her pulse. But it still felt so cold when her fingertips touched the girl's hand, and the temperature reminded Gong Ruixue of a corpse.

Being so close, Gong Ruixue could clearly smell a putrid smell coming from the bed. Gong Ruixue didn't show anything strange, she just concentrated on feeling her pulse.

The pulse was very weak. Gong Ruixue found it difficult to feel the pulse for a long time. After a long time, Gong Ruixue gently put her hand back into the quilt.

The little girl couldn't wait to ask: "Miss Gong, how is our young lady doing?"

Gong Ruixue couldn't bear to make the two of them anxious: "Did you only have the cough recently?"

The little girl nodded quickly: "We didn't live here originally, we lived in Zhuangzi outside Yangjiang Mansion. This time we made a special trip to see Miss Gong. While running around on the road, Miss Gong started to cough, and it became more and more serious in the past two days."

Gong Ruixue nodded: "Open the bed curtains. I need to take a closer look at your lady. In addition, open a window in the house and don't face the bed."

The little girl was still hesitating, how could a person with cold see the wind?

"With no one living in the house all year round, the lack of air circulation will make it easier to aggravate the condition. Since you come to me to see a doctor, you must trust me unconditionally."

Gong Ruixue's face turned cold. People in this era didn't know the importance of ventilation and disinfection. They just covered themselves up when they got sick.

"Xiaodou, listen to Miss Gong." The girl hurriedly ordered.

The maid named Xiaodou also hung up the other half of the bed curtain, and helped her lady sit up on the backrest before going to open the window.

Only when the bed curtain was completely raised could Gong Ruixue fully see Miss Liu's face. Her long hair fell down, covering half of her face, and the other half was so pale and thin that she was out of shape.

Gong Ruixue raised her hand to push away the half of her hair that was covering her face. The girl subconsciously ducked back, then slowly moved back so that the top of her head was pressed against Gong Ruixue's hand.

Gong Ruixue lifted her hair and tucked it behind her ears. What she saw was a large patch of green birthmark-like material attached to the covered half of her face.

The little girl observed Gong Ruixue's expression without blinking. Seeing that Gong Ruixue did not show any disgust, she then gave Gong Ruixue a sweet smile.

Gong Ruixue raised her hand and rubbed the little girl's head: "Don't worry, you will become beautiful in the future. Can you let me see the sores on your body? I will do it gently."

The girl nodded obediently and took off half of her clothes, revealing a large rotten sore on her right shoulder.

Gong Ruixue frowned, her eyes quickly scanning and analyzing the girl's physical condition.

The girl lowered her head when she saw Gong Ruixue's frown, her hair covering the corners of her mocking mouth and the viciousness in her eyes.

"How old are you? How long have you been like this? When did the poisonous spots on your face appear?"

Gong Ruixue already knew why Miss Liu became like this, but she still needed to verify it.

The little girl came forward and said: "The birthmark on the face was carried by the young lady since she was born. The young lady is eight years old this year. The sores on her body first appeared at the beginning of last year. At first, they were only the size of a coin. Now they are large and small. It’s over a dozen yuan, and the shoulder is the biggest.”

Gong Ruixue nodded, it was exactly what she thought.

"I would like to ask, is your mother gone?" Gong Ruixue thought for a long time before speaking.

The girl always lowered her head, and her voice came out faintly: "Yes, my mother died when I was born, and I am still half-dead. They all say that I am the reincarnation of an evil ghost, and everyone avoids me. Not as good as that.”

Gong Ruixue sneered: "You should ask those people who said you are an evil ghost who are the evil ghosts. You are either sick or poisoned, and the poison was given to your mother. You are still able to tell fortunes and survive till now. .”

"The ones on the face are not birthmarks, they are poisonous spots caused by the accumulation of toxins brought from the mother's womb. As long as the poison is removed, the spots on the face will disappear, and the sores on the body will be cured."

The girl raised her head suddenly and stared at Gong Ruixue, as if to confirm whether she was lying to her like those liars.

Gong Ruixue looked at the girl firmly. She had seen this look before, and Qi Xinghai also looked at her like this. It was a complex look that mixed hope, doubt and anger.

"As long as you want to live, I can make you live a beautiful life. The premise is that you need to trust me and endure huge pain. Can you do that?"

"I want to live, I want to live a beautiful life, and I want to show the true evil spirit!" The girl's eyes gradually became firm.

Gong Ruixue told her maid Xiaodou how to clean the house, and then asked the servant to drive her back to the cafeteria in a carriage. She also gave the servant a few jars of alcohol distilled by Gong Ruixue and brought it back to Liu's house.

After preparing the lunch custom-made meal, preparing the ingredients for the evening custom-made medicinal meal one by one, and teaching Xiao Yu'er the methods and precautions, Gong Ruixue got on the Liu family's carriage again.

Gong Ruixue returned to Liu's house after taking her to Renjitang to buy a large amount of medicinal materials.

Watching Miss Liu finish the medicinal meal, Gong Ruixue handed her a paper bag, which contained the anti-inflammatory medicine that Gong Ruixue exchanged from Prestige Mall. A cough is caused by an upper respiratory tract infection, and anti-inflammatories are indeed the fastest way to treat it.

"There are fourteen small packets here. The medicinal powder inside is taken twice a day, one packet at a time, with warm water."

"Now take off your clothes and go soak in the tub. No matter if it hurts or itches, you must not get out of the water. Do you understand me?"

Gong Ruixue saw the girl sitting in the bathtub and covered the bathtub with a wooden board, leaving only the girl's head exposed.

The maid Xiaodou moved a screen in, and soon there was the sound of servants moving things in from the other side of the screen. It was the new bathtub that Gong Ruixue had ordered them to buy.

After placing the new bathtub, Xiaodou used a clean handkerchief dipped in the alcohol Gong Ruixue brought and wiped it inside and out three or four times. After pouring two pots of newly brewed medicine into the pot and adding hot water, Gong Ruixue wrapped Ms. Liu, who had just come out of the water, with a woolen blanket hooked by Chen Yining that she stole from home.

"The medicated bath you enter this time will be very painful. Remember what I said, no matter how painful it is, you can't come out."

Gong Ruixue watched the girl enter the water and covered the board again.

The whole room was filled with steam. Gong Ruixue looked at the girl's frown and the tight veins on her forehead.

Gong Ruixue only knew that it hurt, but she didn't know exactly how painful it was. The document said it was 'severe pain' which was not easy to imagine, but needless to say the girl couldn't help but stand up and didn't even cry out in pain.

Gong Ruixue moved the chair to the side, put her hand on the top of the girl's hair, and stroked it gently. When Gong Ruixue was sick when she was a child, Chen Yining would touch the top of Gong Ruixue's hair like this. Gong Ruixue would feel that it would not be so uncomfortable every time.

The girl seemed to be comforted, and the trembling of her body gradually became weaker.

"Sister, tell me a story."

The girl spoke while enduring severe pain, her voice revealing her powerlessness and difficult forbearance.
