After the banquet, Shen Yiran returned home and supported the old lady and personally sent her back to Jingxin Hall.

Along the way, the old lady nodded and said, "I didn't expect that we could establish a relationship with Prince Xing's Mansion. Although the prince is not an official in the mansion, it is good to have more power."

Shen Yiran understood that the old lady was thinking of the people from the Yongyi Marquis Mansion when she said this, so he nodded and said with a smile, "That's right, this is also an unintentional good thing. If I hadn't been captured that day, there would be no such good thing today."

The old lady held Shen Yiran's hand and said with a smile: "You, child, if you hadn't wanted to help them reconcile, the following things wouldn't have happened. So, sincerity for sincerity, Ranran, you are a good child."

Shen Yiran pursed his lips and smiled, then stopped talking, changing the subject: "Hong'er has been ill ever since he came back from burning incense. How can a child bear this?"

The old lady's face darkened when she heard this, and she became worried: "That's right! I heard that you let Madam buy all the medicines and herbs by herself, and you spent a lot of money, but there was no effect. Why don't you think of a way?"

Shen Yiran immediately said, "I have been thinking about it too. Today, sister Qin told me that the prince knows a miracle doctor and asked the prince to invite him personally. It would be great if he could come."

The old lady nodded and said, "Yes, you can ask again tomorrow."

After sending the old lady back, Shen Yiran called the housekeeper and checked the account book of Xu's expenses in the past few days.

Two thousand taels of silver had been spent in just half a month.

The housekeeper clasped his hands and said, "Madam is too anxious. How can the disease be cured if we change doctors every day?"

"Changing doctors every day?"

"Yes, if there is no improvement after one day of treatment, the eldest lady will scold the doctor for being a quack and cheating her out of money, and will kick him out and hire another one. Alas! How can the child withstand such frequent changes of medicine?"

Shen Yiran nodded and said, "I have asked the princess to ask the prince to invite a miracle doctor. I think he should be here in the next few days. Tell the first lady the news so that she can feel a little more at ease."

The butler nodded and left.

Shen Yiran looked at the account book again and called the accountant to ask, "Did Hong'er spend all this money alone?"

The accountant knew that Shen Yiran was very capable and could always find flaws in the account book, so he did not dare to hide it at this moment: "Master asked me to do the accounting and took out 500 taels of silver."

Shen Yiran knew it was like this: "Make sure the account book is accurate, I won't tell anyone."

The accountant thanked him and went out.

Shen Yiran called the servants serving in Jianjia Pavilion to inquire about Bo Jinxiu's whereabouts.

"The master comes back every day to see the children, then goes out. The master's servant tells him that he has a mistress outside and hangs out there every day before coming back!"

After hearing this, Shen Yiran sighed with a gloomy face. Xu was quite capable, but it was a pity that the child was sick and she had to worry about him alone.

"Okay, keep watching and report back to me if you find anything."

The housekeeper went over and brought back Shen Yiran's words. When Xu heard that it was Prince Xing who came to invite him personally, she trusted him very much and looked at the child with a flushed face on the bed with relief: "Okay, child, you will get better!"

The next day, King Xing personally sent someone to send a miracle doctor over.

The housekeeper came to welcome them in. Shen Yiran and Xu were behind the screen, and the old lady was sitting beside them watching.

After taking the child's pulse, the doctor checked the child's eyes and mouth and nodded.

"Please ask the doctor to prescribe a prescription."

The doctor said a few polite words after hearing this, "The child has been infected with a cold due to alternating cold and heat. Now that his body is hot, he shouldn't be wrapped so tightly. Let's cool him down first."

As he spoke, he asked someone to quickly wipe Hong'er's body with a hot towel, change him into dry clothes, cover him with a thin blanket, and feed him some medicine. Sure enough, the fever in his body subsided.

"Now that the heat has subsided, you should keep warm and avoid catching a cold. Remember to open the windows to let in some fresh air. If it's a sunny day, be sure to take your baby out to bask in the sun."

The old lady was very grateful and asked, "I wonder how long it will take for the child to recover?"

The genius doctor packed up his medicine box and said with a smile, "It's not a big deal, just be careful."

Shen Yiran was worried that Xu was feeding the child too much tonic food again, so he said from behind the screen: "Does the child need to pay attention to his diet? If it is convenient for the doctor, please take the trouble to prescribe a diet list and a prescription for later treatment."

The old lady nodded immediately after hearing this: "That's right, please take the trouble to ask the genius doctor."

The doctor stood up and took the order, and wrote two prescriptions: "Please drink warm water. The child is too young, so you can't use Mongolian medicine ingredients. Just eat something light and nutritious."

Xu looked at Shen Yiran with gratitude. After the miracle doctor left, she immediately came out from behind the screen and checked Honger in person. The fever had indeed subsided.

"Well, you've been tired for so long. Hong'er is sleeping soundly now. Madam, you should also take a rest."

Shen Yiran came out with a smile: "That's right, if the eldest sister-in-law fell ill, Hong'er would be sad even if he recovered."

Xu wiped away her tears and nodded, "What the old lady said is right. As long as Hong'er is well, I will be well too."

After a slow recuperation, Hong'er recovered, and Xu lost a lot of weight due to her anxiety.

Everyone in Jianjia Pavilion had more or less heard the news that Bo Jinxiu was having a mistress, but no one dared to tell Xu.

However, Rong Qingqing's maid Xunxiang heard the secret slipped out by the servant in Jianjia Pavilion, and immediately went over to report to Rong Qingqing.

When Rong Qingqing heard this, she wished there would be chaos in the first house, so she immediately slipped to Jianjia Pavilion and told Xu about it secretly.

Xu was furious when she heard this. She just said with a straight face in front of Rong Qingqing: "Thank you for your kindness, sister. These servants are used to speaking ill of their masters. I have to check carefully to see if it is true."

Rong Qingqing heard her stubbornness and snorted, "Sister, don't be obsessed. Hong'er is not doing this well, but he is hanging out with his mistress. If it were me, I would definitely make a scene and let the old lady judge for me!"

Hearing this, Xu gritted her teeth and endured it, saying, "It's not certain whether it's true or not. Sister, please go back first and I'll send someone to ask."

Rong Qingqing stood up and smiled when she heard it: "I really hope that the maids heard it wrongly. Sister, just treat it as something I said casually and don't take it to heart."

After Rong Qingqing left, Xu couldn't hold her breath anymore, vomited blood, and fell unconscious on the bed.

Qiu Wen knew that she was just angry, but she didn't dare to make a fuss and let others know. She could only quietly come to Shen Yiran for help.

When Shen Yiran heard Rong Qingqing reveal that Bo Jin was having an affair, he stamped his feet and said, "Sister-in-law is already in poor health, how can you tell her such news at this time!"

"Bai Zhi, go and quietly ask the doctor to come and see you. Don't disturb the old lady."

Qiu Wen was very grateful and immediately brought Shen Yiran to visit Xu.

Xu had already woken up and was interrogating the maids and servants behind closed doors in her mansion.

When Shen Yiran arrived, he heard the maids admit that they had only heard about it and no one had seen it in person.

"Madam, the third lady is here."

Xu waved her hand, asking the maids and servants to leave, and suppressed her anger: "Sister-in-law is here, please sit down."
