In the end, Jin Lan was still unable to stay in the Shuixie Pavilion and stayed there for a short while. She could only stay in the Shuixie Pavilion during the day and return to there only after dinner.

The two prescriptions that Master Hui Wu gave were taken from Madame SHen and personally went to the medicine store to catch them. The formula to suppress the poison was extremely complicated, and one had to grasp the time to add medicinal herbs in a timely manner. Jin Lan saw that it wasn't easy, and was afraid that the maid might accidentally make a mistake or someone might secretly make a move, so she said that she wanted to personally make the medicinal herbs. He was also afraid that he would be negligent and pull both Mama Tang and Wan Ju along. That medicine had to be consumed five times in order to make a bowl, and twice in a day. For the past half month, she was practically wasting time in the small kitchen of Shuixie Pavilion.

With Jin Lan's closeness to Ye Lin and the fact that he was staying for the night, the atmosphere in the mansion immediately changed. Those snobbish servants who were originally on duty while wearing small shoes all had bright smiles on their faces. They wished that they could run a few more times. Not to mention Man Ping, Hui Xiu and the rest, even the rough servants walked out, their chests raised up a little.

The days of the Shuixie Pavilion were good, but the other place was filled with rumors and jitters.

A sharp and ear-piercing sound of cups falling to the ground came from within the Bright Autumn Pavilion. The servant girl guarding the door couldn't help but shiver, just how many times had it been today …

The Concubine Shao sat on the beautiful bed with a gloomy expression. Not far from him, there were some exquisite porcelain objects that had been broken into pieces on the limestone tiles.

Seeing that she was preparing to sweep the tea set from the table to the ground, Su Xin immediately advised: ”Aunt, this set of tea set from the Juju Kiln was specially given to you by the Master, if it was broken, I am afraid the Master will not be happy.”

”Will the old master be unhappy? Now that the old master is laughing merrily, why would he come to my place? ” Concubine Shao looked at the teacup by his hand and raised her eyes slightly. Her expression was gloomy and indecisive, but in the end, she still retracted his hand.

Su Xin heaved a sigh of relief, this was the most precious thing in Concubine Shao, if it were to fall in anger, when she calmed down, the one who would suffer would not be him.

With that in mind, Su Xin quickly used the opportunity to pour some tea and shifted the position of the teacup a little. She held up the hot tea for Concubine Shao and comforted him with a smile: ”How could I? From what I see, the old master only came to Shuixie Pavilion tomorrow because of the old ginseng that Madam took out. ”

Concubine Shao took the cup and slowly took a sip, her mouth carrying a trace of ridicule, ”I had thought that she would die outside, but who would have thought that she would still be alive and kicking, and that she would occupy the position of Master the moment she returned.”

Su Xin sat at the foot of the bed and lightly patted Concubine Shao's knees, ”Aunt, you shouldn't have been soft-hearted, let Master bring them back.”

”What do you know?” The Concubine Shao snorted, ”Although the old master has treated her coldly for all these years, she should be the one to be discussed. Since the old lady is sick and she has something good in her hands, how can the old master not think of her? It would be better for me to say it myself, and also let old master remember my words. ” However, she had underestimated the abilities of the Madame SHen. She hadn't thought that she would be able to win over the old master!

Su Xin smiled and praised her, ”Aunt is wise.”

Concubine Shao squinted her eyes, a glint flashed past her eyes, it seemed like the matter had to be settled quickly. She sipped a mouthful of tea and asked: ”How is the matter that I asked you to do?”

Su Xin's hand paused for a moment, before she continued, ”This servant used some silver, I found someone new to send the item over, I can't be wrong.”

Concubine Shao's eyes suddenly became sharp, ”You have to be accurate, this is not something that can be done carelessly. If it was discovered, even I would not be able to escape from this responsibility!”

Su Xin hurriedly nodded, ”Aunt, don't worry. I found a half-grown beggar and even specially let him eat it before returning. He only gave me a few copper coins left and right, so no one can see anything wrong with him. ”That day, this servant specially bought a set of coarse clothes from a clothing store outside. She definitely won't be recognized by anyone.”

Only after hearing her explanation did Concubine Shao relax. However, she still warned her, ”For the time being, don't go out. If there's anything you need help with, go to Wang Rui's family outside the Second Gate.”

Su Xin replied, ”Yes.”

Concubine Shao laughed satisfactorily. She closed his eyes lightly, there was no other expression on her face, and only after a long while did she suddenly open his eyes and look at Su Xin, ”Go and see what First Miss is doing. If there's nothing else, ask her to come over to me.

After drinking the Buddhist Abbot Hui Wu's prescription, his body was obviously much better than before, and the wound on his arm had also gradually healed. Even though he had smeared some scarred spirit medicine on it, with such a big wound, it was impossible for him to not leave any traces. A deep red mark the size of a duck's egg, with a gouge in the middle, still looked startling at first glance. Fortunately, he was usually concealed under his long sleeves, so it was not easy for people to see him.
