An ugly girl starts off, then becomes a beauty

Sang Ling got off the carriage halfway after seeing Ashan, the servant beside Gao Heng.

After asking some questions, he followed the servant into the mansion of Marquis Mu Wu, but entered through a small door in the backyard of the mansion.

There were already two or three maids waiting inside, carrying the medicine that Ashan had bought. They led the people through a small path in the house and stopped under a corridor.

"A Ling, why are you here?"

Gao Heng was decocting medicine by the stove, and his surprise was obvious.

The light in this room was dim. A colorful beaded curtain separated the front and back halls. Under a branch lamp, a plain gauze curtain was draped over the bamboo couch. There seemed to be a person lying inside.

She answered, "I saw Ashan on the way home and asked him to bring me here." At the same time, she could not help but look behind the pearl curtain.

"You are also fooling around, bringing a young lady here." Gao Heng was scolding Ah Shan, and he didn't notice someone walking by. Sang Ling was completely unconscious, and slowly walked to the bead curtain.

I was 70% sure that the person behind was Nie Ce.

"My butt is naked." Perhaps thinking that she was going to lift the curtain, Nie Ce's lazy voice came.

She paused suddenly, then realized her steps. Gao Heng also turned his head away, but did not stop her. He explained in a gentle voice, "He was beaten by his grandfather. Fortunately, he didn't lose his life."

I also know that this cousin's anxiety is justified. If I send her back without explaining anything, it will only make her anxious.

"Hey, hey." The young man behind the bead curtain called out twice, obviously not wanting Gao Heng to say any more.

Sang Ling did not ask any more questions. Looking at the current situation, it seemed that it was not as serious as she thought. She stood there awkwardly for a while, hesitating about what to ask, when Gao Heng asked, "I heard that you went to the East Marquis Mansion with your mother today. How did you see Ah Shan?"

"They were going to play cards in the afternoon, so I came back first. We met on the road." She found a mat and sat down.

There were no maids serving in the room, and the few servants were waiting at the corridor. She lowered her eyebrows and glanced at the corridor again. Then she looked behind the curtain and saw a person pulling open the gauze curtain, revealing a head.

"Donghou Mansion." Young Marquis Nie smiled lightly, and no one knew what the words meant.

Gao Heng was warming the medicine in the stove. Before he could say anything, Sang Ling could no longer sit still. Seeing him like this was not a big deal, since Gao Heng, the doctor, was watching over him. She was about to leave, but out of the corner of her eye she saw Nie Ce's entire upper body exposed - the muscles on the boy's arms bulged, and when he moved, his wheat-colored skin shone a little under the light.

He was frightened for a moment and looked away awkwardly.

"There's one more thing I haven't told you. Cao Xin and Qian Shao were seriously injured. Your sister is responsible for that."

"How is it?" Gao Heng stopped fanning himself.

Sang Ling knew about this, so he didn't dare to say anything. He only heard the people behind the beaded curtain laugh twice, "Sang Ling, if you hadn't kicked him in the crotch first, my fake move wouldn't have been implemented. I was wondering why they reacted so slowly, they couldn't even dodge it. Later I found out that he and Cao Xin were injured a long time ago, and they didn't want to say it was you at first, for fear that it would be laughed at if it got out."

"Gao Aman, your cousin is much more capable than I thought." Nie Ce leaned on the edge of the couch, full of interest, "Cao Xin even made her lose a tooth."

Gao Heng blinked in confusion when he heard that, then looked at Sang Ling again, but he didn't know what to ask for a moment - when he was applying medicine to her that day, he saw her hands and guessed that she might have fought back, but he didn't expect that she was the one who beat the other person?

"You--" The cousin's lips moved but he couldn't say anything. Even though it was good to be able to protect herself, it was still dangerous. She was a girl and the other side had several men. What if someone used a trick on her?

"Yeah." Sang Ling looked back and forth, and replied to Nie Ce awkwardly, "So I said I was just too lazy to bother with them."

She really couldn't stay any longer, so she propped herself up on the floor. Gao Heng also stood up at the same time. He gently placed his palm-leaf fan on the table and waved to the maid in the corridor, "Follow the prescription I prepared a few days ago and take another dose at twilight hour. I'll come back to check on you tomorrow."

When the maids came into the house, Nie Ce stopped smiling and said, "Gao Aman, are you leaving? What should I do here?"

"Come back tomorrow. Your..." Gao Heng paused for a moment, "Don't let the wound get wet, and don't move around in bed. Just rest and recuperate for a while." After saying that, he walked in front of Sang Ling and said, "Go home."

Sang Ling couldn't help but look back again, and saw Nie Ce shaking his head and smiling, and had already gone back into the tent.

She came here in the carriage of the East Marquis's Mansion, and she would have to ride in the same carriage with Gao Heng on the way back. At first, the carriage was silent, and Sang Ling thought Gao Heng would ask her about her fight back, but after waiting for a while and not seeing him speak, she started talking first, "Cousin, Nie Ce will be alright, right?"

"Him." Gao Heng spoke in a good tone, "Nothing will happen to him. The Qian family won't let it go unless we punish him."

She just said "oh" and didn't ask any more questions.

When they arrived at Gao's house, her cousin lifted his skirt and walked towards Yanshuiju first. He took two steps and looked back at her. It seemed that he wanted to say something but hesitated. She stopped and waited for him to ask her.

The breeze in the hallway was still a bit chilly, but there was no questioning. My cousin only said, "I left your medicine for a day. I'll go prepare it."

"Okay." So her voice was also very soft.

This breeze seems to bring warmth, making people feel peaceful and calm.
