Facing the scorching sun in July, the carriage hardly stopped on the road after leaving Huai'an, and only rested in the nearby town at night. If there is no town, they can only borrow and live in the homes of ordinary people.

Hurrying and hurrying, I always arrived in Xuzhou ten days before the deadline set by the person who was looking for trouble, one day earlier than I thought in advance, but the wind and cold in the flowers all over the building did not improve at all. Fortunately, except for coughing and Except for a little dizziness, there are no other symptoms.

The carriage had just arrived at the gate of Huafu, Bai Feifei opened the curtain and saw a man waiting there with two servants, seeing the carriage stop, he immediately came forward to meet him.

"This is the Seventh Young Madam, right? Little Liu An is the housekeeper of the house. The Young Madam told me to wait here. The Seventh Young Madam and the Seventh Young Master are tired all the way, so we can go to rest first." Dressed in a blue robe, his face The kind middle-aged man looked at Hua Manlou and said respectfully, "Seventh Young Master."

Hua Manlou nodded, knowing that his fourth sister-in-law Liu Suiyan must have arranged this matter, so she whispered a few words in Bai Feifei's ear before getting out of the carriage together.

Hearing this, Bai Feifei was stunned for a moment, looked at Liu An, and then said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Liu, but I have to trouble the two brothers to deliver the driver and the luggage on the car to the room."

"These things are left to the servants. Seventh Young Master, Seventh Young Madam, please, I will take you to the courtyard where you are settled. Everything has been taken care of."

"En." Hua Manlou responded, holding Bai Feifei's hand and walking inside.

Liu An is worthy of being the butler who has been in the house for many years. He has arranged things in an orderly manner and is very thoughtful in everything. He even thought of Huamanlou's love for flowers. There are many new blooming peonies in the yard.

Looking around the yard, Bai Feifei led Hua Manlou into the room.

"Master, if the Young Madam has any orders, just ask the maids outside to do it. I will go to the kitchen and have the food delivered."

"It's work."

Sending Liu An away, Bai Feifei walked around the room, stretched out his hand to search the bed and looked at Hua Manlou, "When I came here just now, I found that there was nothing unusual in Xuzhou City, but you told me about Liu An intentionally. ,Any problem?"

Hua Manlou was sitting at the table, had just drank a cup of hot water, and hesitated when he heard this, "Not all, but Liu An has been in the house for many years, and I have been to Xuzhou a few times, there are some differences this time, probably I'm overthinking."

"No, your intuition has always been accurate. Your eyes can be blinded, but your heart and feelings can't."

"Don't worry, Fourth Sister-in-Law should be with Fourth Brother at this time, not to mention Liu An just said to bring us lunch. If we pass by, it would be a waste of his arrangements." Hua Manlou shook his head, "You take a rest first, this journey Come on, you have to take care of two people, don't be brave."

"After the letter from Huaian, don't be in a hurry. Is there anything else in that letter?" Bai Feifei went back to the table and sat down, looked at Huamanlou in front of him and shook his head, "Since it's your brother's I don't care about it, it's just that your illness is procrastinating like this, and I don't know when it will recover."

Hearing this, Hua Manlou laughed, "It's just a general cold, and it's not poisoned, it will be fine in a few days."

She knew that Huamanlou was doing it to reassure herself, but they lived in the same room and could hear Huamanlou's uncontrollable coughing every night. It would be strange if she could believe that there was no serious problem.

only--

Looking up at him, "Maybe it's really poisoning. You see that the fourth brother is unconscious after being poisoned. Is it a coincidence that you have been ill for a long time?"

"What you said is not unreasonable, but if there is such a poison, the antidote must be hard to find." Hua Manlou held Bai Feifei's hand, "You and I have both traveled around the rivers and lakes, and have never encountered such a poison. "

Bai Feifei frowned and shook his head, "Maybe I'm worrying too much."

Stretching out his hand to touch Hua Manlou's forehead, it was the same as his own, and his worry eased a little, "I only heard you call Sisao, but I don't know what is Sisao's boudoir name? Did you run into a business family?"

"This time you guessed wrong. The fourth sister-in-law's boudoir name is Liu Suiyan. She used to be a knight-errant in the Jianghu. This will save me from disaster." Hua Manlou laughed and said, "But after marrying Fourth Brother, Fourth Sister-in-law has lost her temper, if we didn't know, it would be difficult to guess her previous life experience."

It seems that what Hua Manlou said earlier about the different backgrounds of the young wives of the Hua family is true. There are not only famous ladies, but also knights, and even ordinary women.

The two were talking in the room, and Bai Feifei was going to the yard to ask the maid to take the medicine to the kitchen when there was a knock on the door.

'Knock knock—'

"Seventh Young Master, Seventh Young Madam."

"Boss Liu? Why are you here? But what's the matter?" Bai Feifei went to the door and opened it. Looking at Liu An at the door with an anxious face, he guessed, "But something happened to Fourth Brother?"

Liu An looked at Bai Feifei with an anxious expression on his face, "The young master vomited blood just now, the young madam told me to hurry over and invite you to come over."

Bai Feifei looked at Huamanlou inside, frowned slightly, and nodded, "Understood, you lead the way, we'll go there now."

Hua Manlou who heard the voice came out, walked straight out, and said as he walked, "How is fourth brother's injury? Why did he suddenly vomit blood, is it—"

"Seventh Young Master, the Young Master is still in a coma, and the Young Madam is helpless. The doctor only prescribes some common prescriptions. There is really no way." Liu An sighed, "I don't know what's going on this time. ...That's why I asked Seventh Young Master to go over and have a look."

Helpless, it seems that this poison is tricky, not an ordinary poison.Bai Feifei has seen a lot of guns before, not to mention that she has used a lot herself, but she doesn't know if she can help.

Bai Feifei glanced at Huamanlou beside him, and saw that he was frowning, knowing that he must be worried about Huamanting, so he reached out to hold Huamanlou's hand.

"Don't worry, it'll be alright."

Liu An led the two of them through the corridor, went around to the other side of the garden, and walked for a while before reaching the courtyard where Hua Manting lived. As soon as he walked in, he smelled the smell of medicine coming out of it. Bai Feifei frowned. Why is the smell a bit pungent? With such a strong medicine, what kind of poison is it?

Liu An looked at the two of them, stepped forward and knocked on the door, "Young Madam, Seventh Young Master and Seventh Young Madam are here."

The door opened, Liu Suiyan looked at Huamanlou, his worry disappeared, and he smiled and said, "Seventh brother, younger siblings, are you here?"

Looking at the young and beautiful woman in front of him, Bai Feifei saw that her eyes were red, and she looked like she hadn't rested well and was crying a lot these days. He couldn't bear it, but he was worried about Hua Manting's injury.

Liu Suiyan turned his gaze away from Hua Manlou, turned to look at Bai Feifei, and sighed with a smile: "I'm so shocked, no wonder the seventh brother fell in love with you as soon as he saw him, this is the first time."

"Fourth sister-in-law." Bai Feifei looked at Liu Suiyan in front of him, "How is fourth brother's injury?"

Speaking of Hua Manting, Liu Suiyan's expression changed, and he shook his head and said, "I just woke up and just said a few words to me and coughed up blood, and it got worse and worse. Go to the heart, if—"

Going back to the bed and sitting down, looking at the flowers lying on the bed, Liu Suiyan sighed, "Every day is worse than every day, I thought I could drag it to - now it seems that I may not be able to drag it on."

"Have all the famous doctors in Xuzhou City been invited to see it? Is there really nothing to do? Or is there really nothing to do?"

"I've invited them all, even doctors from outside Xuzhou City have been invited to see them, but there's nothing they can do, really there's nothing to do, only the poisoner has the antidote." Liu Suiyan wiped away her tears, looked up at the The two of them said, "If it doesn't work, 1 taels of gold will be exchanged for the life of my husband. Even if my father-in-law doesn't allow it, I will exchange all my wealth for the antidote."

Hearing this, Bai Feifei was taken aback, what did Liu Suiyan mean by that? Does the Hua family still care about 1 taels of gold?Hua Manting is the son of the Hua family.

Hua Manlou was also taken aback, not knowing what to say for a moment, "Fourth sister-in-law, we will not ignore the matter of fourth brother, don't worry, the Hua family will be able to keep it whether it is the antidote or the 1 taels of gold. "

"I just said it casually." Liu Suiyan was stunned for a moment, looking at Hua Manlou and Bai Feifei, "I made you laugh just now, has Uncle Liu made arrangements for you?"

"As soon as we come, Uncle Liu will make arrangements." Bai Feifei shook his head, "You can worry about the fourth brother's affairs, and we will do our best for the rest."

Bai Feifei looked at Liu Suiyan in front of him, always felt that what Liu Suiyan said just now was a bit wrong, why would he say such a thing?Even if it was casual, it shouldn't be said in front of Hua Manlou.

But looking at Liu Suiyan's appearance, it didn't seem like there was a problem.

After coming out of the room, Bai Feifei and Hua Manlou walked side by side in the corridor. Bai Feifei looked up at Hua Manlou, saw his brows furrowed, and asked in a low voice, "Did you think of something?"

Hearing this, Hua Manlou shook his head, "It's okay, let's go back to the room first, it's getting late."
