Chapter 3

It is rainy in May, and the old saying is true. The light rain started to fall in the morning and became heavier in the evening.The rainwater hit the window lattices, making a rustling sound. Inside the quaint house, there was a room full of people, old and young, but no one spoke quietly.

The sandalwood burning in the incense burner is not very calming.Everyone was a little restless.Sitting in the first seat was the old lady of General Chu's mansion.She was married to General Chu when she was 16. At that time, General Chu was just a commoner, and the two of them had gone through ups and downs. Respect.It is precisely because of General Chu's attitude that the old lady has lived an extremely superior life, and has become more and more graceful these years.But at this time, she was a little restless, "Mrs. Wang, go to the door to see if the old man is back?"

Mrs. Wang took the order and left.

At the same time, accompanied by the roaring thunder, there was a sound of horseshoes from far to near. The man on the horse was over fifty years old, with a firm face, gray temples, and a suit of armor that made him look heroic. When he arrived at the gate of General Chu's mansion Before he got off his horse, he got off his horse, and the porter immediately went up to meet him.Although the rain was getting heavier, the old general did not use a bamboo hat, and just let the rain run across his resolute face without stopping. The old general took three steps at a time and walked quickly to the backyard. At this time, the backyard was already brightly lit. , he ran towards the third room without hesitation.

As soon as Mrs. Wang told the old general to come back, she saw that he had arrived.

The old lady hastily recruited people to change the old general's clothes and wipe it. It was full of rain, but it was easy to get typhoid.

"How is fifth girl?" The old general frowned and looked at his wife.

The old lady sighed, "The doctor is still there."

That meant that she didn't know what the fifth girl's body was like.For a while, the scene fell silent again. Old General Chu didn't ask too much, just sat down quietly and waited for the doctor. One stick of incense...and another stick of incense...just as everyone became more and more anxious, the doctor finally It is to lift the curtain and go out.Miss Fifth's mother, Lan's from the third room, came forward crying: "Doctor, how is my daughter?"

The old lady coughed, and the third lady immediately sensed her gaffe, and retreated silently. Although General Chu was born as a commoner, he paid more and more attention to the rules under his heyday these years.So is the old lady.

Seeing the distressed expression on the doctor's face, General Chu made a quick decision: "Come to the study and talk to me in detail." He glanced at the others, and said, "Everyone should leave. If you stay here, you won't be able to help Fifth Girl."

General Chu said the same thing, so others naturally didn't dare to say anything, so they just went out with low eyebrows. Lan looked at the daughter in the inner room hesitantly, and wanted to say something to stay with her, but in the end he didn't speak in the old lady's sight. She followed the third master carelessly and went out.

The small courtyard that was still lively suddenly fell silent.The sound of the rain outside the window seemed to be a little louder.The quietness of the room is complemented by the loudness of the outside.

"Qiaoyin, do you think our lady will be okay?" the maid Qiaoyue asked at a loss.You can tell from the appearance that Qiaoyin is a few years older than Qiaoyue.

"Whether Miss is good or not, we are all slaves. We are slaves everywhere." Qiaoyin's voice was calm, but Qiaoyue was not so calm in comparison, she bit her lip, "You Don't say that, the lady will be fine! It will be!"

Qiaoyin glanced at Qiaoyue and said: "Let's go out and wait, let the lady sleep quietly for a while."

Qiaoyue listened and nodded in agreement.

The two servant girls tiptoed out of the room and closed the door from the outside.The moment the door closed, the frail girl lying on the bed opened her eyes.
