Mu Yan heard Mu Yao talking outside when she was in the room. When she saw her come in, she said with a sad face: "Don't try to persuade me. I won't take this medicine today."
"I don't advise Seventh Sister to take medicine, but Seventh Sister must eat well so that she can recover quickly."
Mu Yan sighed, "If you take a big bowl of medicine, how can you eat? I didn't take medicine today, but I have an appetite."
"I see that the seventh sister is more energetic than yesterday. Is this prescription wrong?"
Pu Cao said: "The old lady asked the palace doctor to prescribe the medicine. How could it not be right? The eight girls have already taken it."
Mu Yao glanced at the medicine bowl and said, "Eighth sister is better, but seventh sister is not. Is it because seventh sister was frightened that she healed slower?"
Mu Yan thought her tone was meaningful and was slightly startled. She couldn't help but look towards the medicine bowl.
It can't be...
Before she could think clearly, Mu Wan's voice sounded outside.
Mu Yao hated Mu Wan and never concealed it. She stood up and said, "Eighth sister is here. I can't bear to listen to her singing, so I won't sit there any longer. Seventh sister should get better soon. It's medicine that's three parts poison." , it’s not a good thing after all.”
Mu Yan felt more and more that there was something in her words, so Mu Wan came in.
"Seventh sister..." Mu Wan floated to the bed and sat down solemnly, "It's just a cold weather, why isn't sister feeling better at all?"
"I'm fine, cough...I'll be fine in a few days..."
Mu Yan's throat was itchy and she coughed a few times while covering her face with a handkerchief.
"It's all my fault. That day by the river, I couldn't hold it back and revealed my inner thoughts, which made my sister feel depressed..."
Before she finished her sentence, Mu Wan was already in tears. She suppressed her heartbreak and said, "Sister, please rest assured. In the future, I will remember that Mr. Qin is my brother-in-law, and I will never have any delusional thoughts. My sister is in trouble."
When Mu Yan heard this, her face couldn't help but become embarrassed.
Both she and Mu Wan had the right to love Qin Zeng, but she was luckier and was chosen by Mr. Qin. Mu Wan felt sad. It was normal for her to show her sadness when she made a wish for Qin Zeng. However, she stabbed Mu Wan in the face and scolded her mercilessly not to miss Qin Zeng. After that, she was almost swept away by the waves. , Mu Wan saved her.
Now that the other party came to apologize to her again, Mu Yan felt even more embarrassed.
She almost didn't dare to look into Mu Wan's eyes. She kept her eyes lowered and her body tensed.
"this is not your fault……"
Mu Wan cried even more sadly when she heard this, "Sister, you don't blame me, but why don't you take medicine and let yourself get so sick?"
"I really don't blame you...cough cough cough...Puli, bring the medicine bowl."
"Girl, the medicine has gone cold. I'll warm it up before bringing it back to you."
Mu Yan nodded, "Eight sisters, please go back first. Your cold is just right. Don't let me get sick again."
Mu Wan wiped away her tears with a handkerchief and said, "Sister, it's a good rest. I'll go back first and see you again tomorrow..."
After Mu Wan left, Mu Yan's mood, which had just gotten better, plummeted again, so low that she didn't even want to eat the sweet porridge brought by Pu Cao.
Pu Liu was very upset, "If Miss Eight really does it for your own good, she shouldn't say these words again! It makes the girl feel guilty and blame herself, and it's smoldering in her heart."
Mu Yan said weakly: "Don't say that, she saved me after all."
Pu Liu said anxiously: "Girl, that's not what I said. If the eighth girl was washed away by the river that night, wouldn't you be indifferent and ignore it?"
Mu Yan sighed, "Of course I will save her. Although I am very tired of her, I can't just watch her lose her life and be indifferent. Besides, I just didn't give her the snow muscle honey dew, and she was said to be three. Dao Si, if I don’t save my life, I don’t know how others will accuse me, and my mother will never forgive me.”
"Yes, girl! That's what you think. Miss Eight may not think the same way. She said she didn't want to embarrass the girl, but every word she said pierced the girl's heart. She clearly wanted to make the girl feel guilty and uncomfortable."
At this time, Pu Cao came in with a medicine bowl. Seeing that the atmosphere in the room was different, he asked suspiciously: "What's going on?"
Pu Liu looked at her, "Pu Cao, tell me, does Eighth Girl really want to comfort the girl?"
Pu Cao looked at Mu Yan and shook his head hesitantly: "The eighth girl is pretentious and always pretends to be a good person. She won't change her temper just because she saved the girl, right? She saved your life, not you. It's normal for you to change your attitude after saving her life. Why would you, Miss Eight, change your attitude? Does it mean that after saving a person you hate, you no longer hate him? This doesn't make sense at all. "
Mu Yan looked at the two girls in astonishment, "Do you all think she came to me on purpose to act pitiful and want me to feel I owe her?"
Pucao Puliu looked at each other and nodded in unison.
Pu Liu said: "In the past, if the eighth girl cried in front of you, you would have been impatient and sneered at her. However, in the past two days, you have tolerated her actions. Doesn't it mean that the eighth girl's tricks worked? ?”
"Yes, just now the Ninth Girls said they were impatient to listen to the Eighth Girls singing opera. Listen to this, but the girl was controlled by this life-saving grace. I am not asking you to repay kindness with enmity, but you can definitely find an opportunity to retaliate. If you accept her favor, there is no need to give in everywhere because of this matter, otherwise, sooner or later, the eighth girl will get into trouble."
Mu Yan's expression was gloomy and uncertain.
Although Mu Wan didn't say anything on her face that she wanted her to repay her for saving her life, all she said was words that made her feel guilty and blame herself.
Pu Liu added: "I don't dare to ask how the girls in the house are doing, but I'm really afraid that you will take advantage of the eighth girl. In the future, I will tolerate and give in to her in every possible way. I don't know when she will do something bad and make the girl suffer. What do you think of the eighth girl?" , it’s better to be on guard as before, it’s always right to be careful.”
Mu Yan sighed, "I understand."
Pu Cao held the medicine bowl, "This medicine... has become cold again. I'd better fry it again, lest it be heated a few times and lose the properties of the medicine. This porridge is still warm, why don't you take a few bites, girl?"
Mu Yan nodded, took the sweet porridge and ate it.
After eating the sweet and glutinous porridge, most of Mu Yan's feeling of weakness disappeared immediately, and the chaos in her mind gradually calmed down.
"Jiu Mei said it was medicine that was three parts poison, so it made sense for me to eat more."
Pu Liu smiled and said: "The eighth girl told you to drink the medicine, so what can I say?"
Mu Yan laughed dryly, "You can't say it's wrong, can you... Mother still pressed my head to force me to drink medicine?"
"That's different. Madam, it's because she cares about you."
Pu Liu just said casually, but Mu Yan was stunned for a moment, "What is the eighth sister doing?"
"Probably just a casual reminder."
But Mu Yan remembered Mu Yao's meaningful look and said, "Go and see if the bowl of medicinal bulrush was poured out just now."
