Xiaoshuang glared at Ahua fiercely, and Ahua scratched his head and smiled foolishly.

"I'll see how you respond. Follow me in."

"Miss, I gave the token to Ah Hua and asked her to invite Doctor Jin. But when this boy came back, he didn't see the doctor."

Jian Xi raised her eyes and saw that it was an acquaintance. "Ahua, where is the imperial physician?"

Ah Hua glanced at the hall and answered truthfully, "Originally, he was invited, but when he passed by Leng Bixuan, he was called away by Sister Shuqin who was beside the Madam. She said that the doctor sent by the general had not arrived yet, so she asked Doctor Jin to go over and treat the Madam first."

Zi Cui felt very upset. It would have been fine if no one had called for a doctor when their young lady encountered such a serious problem. But when they did call for one, the doctor was intercepted halfway.

Xiaoshuang lowered her head and said nothing. Even though she was very dissatisfied, she knew that these things were not something she, a maid, could have the say in.

Gao Yunhuai was furious and slammed the table. All the anger he had been holding in the Shen family exploded in an instant.

"How rude! Wait, I'll go get a doctor myself and tell Doctor Jin to stay with the general's wife and not come over." Gao Yunhuai snorted coldly and flicked his sleeves. He looked at Jian Xi and saw that she seemed to be used to it. He comforted her, "Don't worry, I will definitely do justice for you."

Jian Xi didn't think it was a big deal. She was fine anyway. But Dongfang Wenying fainted and looked more seriously ill. She wanted to explain, but she only saw the corner of Gao Yunhuai's clothes as he left.

Xiao Shuang kicked Ah Hua and said, "Get lost now! I'm so sorry that the girl treated you so well before. You are such a heartless bastard. You can't even handle such a small matter."

Ah Hua knew he was in the wrong and retreated in embarrassment.

"Miss, I just returned to Huashui Pavilion. Mother Xing knew about this and gave me a set of clothes. Miss, change your clothes and go back. This will avoid people looking at your clothes and causing trouble."

Xiaoshuang held a dark green cloud-patterned dress and a pair of matching jewelry on the tray.

"it is good."

Mother Xing is really thoughtful.

Jian Xi's clothes were tattered and covered with dust. Her dress looked like a beggar's outfit, but with her stunning beauty, she looked like a goddess who had fallen from the sky to the earth.

Jian Xi stood up and accidentally pulled the wound on her body, crying out in pain, "Hiss!"

Zi Cui hurried forward to check, "Oh, there is blood on the girl's shoulder."

Jian Xi thought about it and realized that she must have used a lot of force when she jumped out of the window, and was injured by the wooden splinters on the window.

"It's okay. I'll put a handkerchief on it. The clothes that Xing's mother sent are dark in color and won't be noticeable. I'll put them on and deal with them when I get back."

Xiaoshuang and Zicui took out their handkerchiefs, and helped Jian Xi put on her clothes in the cubicle, and then put on a veil hat. She looked exactly the same as when she went out.

Jian Xi did not let the two men support her and walked out of the room alone. She glanced at the servants outside and secretly memorized everyone's name.

Zi Cui gave a look, and Mother Hong understood, and led everyone to follow Jian Xi back to Huashui Pavilion.

Painted Water Pavilion.

Jian Xi had just finished cleaning her wound when the maid came to report: "Mrs. Gao is here."

"Please come in quickly."

"Yes."

Mrs. Gao was dressed casually and in a hurry. When she saw Jian Xi lying on the bed in a snow-white underdress with a pale face, tears fell from her face.

"My son, you have suffered."

Mrs. Gao held Jian Xi's hand, and with her other hand she couldn't help but touch Jian Xi's soft hair.

Jian Xi felt the warmth coming from her ear, looked at Mrs. Gao's concerned eyes, and finally couldn't hold back her tears.

"Aunt Gao."

"Hey! Yun Huai told me when he got back, and I came here first because I was anxious. Don't worry, he has already gone to get a doctor for you, and he will be here soon. With me here, no one can bully you."

Jian Xi sniffed, sat up and stretched out her hands.

Mrs. Gao sat forward a little and took Jian Xi into her arms.

"Cry if you want to. Aunt Gao is here."

Jian Xi burst into tears. She didn't know what was wrong with her. When she was alone, she thought it was okay to suffer a little, but when she encountered other people's concern, she felt as if she had a million grievances in her heart that she couldn't express.

Zi Cui had already asked all the maids in the room to leave when Jian Xi started crying, leaving only Xiao Shuang and herself guarding outside the door.

Hearing Jian Xi's crying coming from the room, Zi Cui finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's better to cry. Girls always keep things in their hearts. It's better to cry."

Xiao Shuang also took up a handkerchief to wipe her tears. "I just feel sorry for the girl. Mother Xing is helping to look after the servants in the courtyard. The people below are speculating. I said that the girl fell down in the Jade Buddha Temple and was scratched by the gravel. She happened to meet Master Gao who rescued her."

Zi Cui praised: "You are right. Lord Gao and the young lady are an engaged couple, and the marriage was granted by His Majesty. It's okay to be closer. You have been with the young lady for so long, and you have improved a lot."

Xiao Shuang was still worried, "I'm not a piece of wood. I know that the girl is good to us, but what the general did this time was too disgraceful." She was speaking up for Jian Xi.

Zi Cui sighed, thinking of all that Jian Xi had done for Shen Nanxing, "Stop talking about it. These are not things we should discuss. I think Mr. Gao is a good person. I just hope that the girl can meet someone who is truly good to her."

Jian Xi is extremely intelligent and can see through other people's affairs very clearly, but when anything happens to her, she becomes less rational.

With Mrs. Gao's comfort, Jian Xi cried heartily and finally felt much relieved. When she came to her senses, she felt a little embarrassed.

Mrs. Gao was very patient. When she saw that Jian Xi had stopped crying, she began to talk about Gao Yunhuai's past.

Jian Xi leaned in Madam Gao's arms, which were soft and fragrant. It was the embrace she had always longed for, and she didn't want to leave.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but feel a little jealous of Gao Yunhuai.

"Miss, the female doctor invited by Mr. Gao is here."

Zi Cui's voice came, Jian Xi took a breath, and finally pulled herself out of Madam Gao's arms, her face slightly red, and she felt a little embarrassed.

Madam Gao personally helped Jian Xi lie down, tucked in the quilt, and said, "Let her in."

"Yes."

Zi Cui brought the female doctor in.

The man was dressed in green, as reserved as jade, and in his early forties.

The female doctor saw Madam Gao and nodded, "Madam Gao."

Madam Gao sat beside the bed and said, "Doctor Guo, please come and check if Xier is okay."

Guo Xiu nodded, and the child behind her was also a little girl with two buns.

"Bai Zhi, bring me my pulse pillow."

"Yes, Master."

Bai Zhi took out the pulse pillow and placed it next to Jian Xi.

Mrs. Gao was obviously very familiar with the medical consultation process. She took out Jian Xi's slender wrist from under the quilt and placed it on the pulse pillow. A streak of red mark on the snow-white wrist was shocking.

Seeing this, Baizhi covered her wrist with a clean silk handkerchief and brought a square stool to place beside the bed.

Guo Xiu sat down, stretched out three fingers and placed them on Jian Xi's wrist. After a moment, he looked at Jian Xi's eyelids and tongue coating.

"There seemed to be traces of drugs in the girl's body, but they have dissipated over time. She also had palpitations and was frightened, and had lost too much blood. May I ask if the girl has any other injuries?"
