"Doctor?" Mingyu still had tears on her face, thinking that Shen Tianshu was not feeling well and wanted to call a doctor, so he hesitated and said, "But, it's midnight, and both doors are locked. If you want to open the door, you can only go to Madam. ...Girl, I will change your ice scarf for you. If we can bear with you for a while, I will go and beg Madam at dawn..."
Shen Tianshu shook his head and said no, and asked, "Have you ever heard of the Jiang family of the Xinglin family? Or the miracle doctor Jiang Sui?"
"Girl, please don't think too much. You just fell into the water and caught a cold. You can just take two doses of medicine and you'll be fine. There's no need to go to a miracle doctor..."
Shen Tianshu didn't hear Mingyu's voice trembling unnaturally, and couldn't help but feel a little disappointed, but he didn't dare to ask any more questions for fear of arousing suspicion.
Come to think of it, Mingyu is just a maid beside a married woman. She is young, so it is normal not to know.
Shen Tianshu was really in low spirits. After saying a few words, she fell asleep again. It wasn't until the east turned white and the heat subsided that she woke up. Before she even opened her eyes, she heard Mingyu lying next to the bed. Cry.
"Mingyu?" Shen Tianshu's voice was hoarse and tired.
"Girl, I'm here." Mingyu quickly wiped away her tears, stepped forward to help Shen Tianshu up, and fed her half a cup of warm water.
"What happened?"
Mingyu put down the water glass and hesitated for a long time before saying in a voice like a mosquito: "When the slave girl saw that the girl had a severe fever, she couldn't wait for daybreak and went to beg the madam. She wanted to ask a doctor to come over and take a look at the girl. In the end, Grandma Guo came out and said , Madam is not feeling well and can’t get up, but last night she agreed that the girl would go to the temple to pray for blessings, so early in the morning she asked someone to prepare a car to take the girl to Donghua Temple..."
"Donghua Temple?" Hearing that he could leave the mansion, Shen Tianshu immediately became energetic, and his almond-shaped eyes that were originally half-closed completely opened.
Mingyu misunderstood her meaning, her eye circles instantly turned red again, and she began to sob.
"Donghua Temple is so far away. Normally, you have to find a place to stay for one night on the way. Now the snow outside is ankle-deep. It's a cold day and the journey is tiring. The girl is still running a fever. This is not to push people to death. What!"
Shen Tianshu didn't think so. She was so excited that she could no longer maintain calm on the surface.
Now that she is in Shen Mansion, her every move is being watched, which makes it very inconvenient for her to do things.
If you can go out of the city to Donghua Temple, you might be able to find a chance to escape on the way.
Although her family was probably gone, Jiang Mansion was probably burned to ashes, and she was so sick that she was weak, but even if she could crawl, she still had to crawl home to take a look.
When he thought of the Jiang family, Shen Tianshu's already sickly face turned pale.
Mingyu looked sad and began to lower his head and wipe his tears again.
"I'm a little hungry and want some porridge. Go and ask the kitchen to make some millet. Make it thicker and serve it with two plates of delicious side dishes."
When Mingyu heard that the girl actually asked for food, she was so happy that she didn't care about anything else. She agreed repeatedly, wiped the tears on her face, and hurried to the kitchen.
After she left, Shen Tianshu got up and went to the floor, dragging his somewhat limp body, and rummaged around the room.
No banknotes, no household registers, just some jewelry.
The strange thing is that there are some medical books in the box. The spines are yellowed and the edges are curled, showing signs of being read many times.
Shen Tianshu randomly took out a book and opened it, and found that there were annotations between the lines, and they were meaningful, which showed that he had read it carefully.
Is it possible that the original owner is also interested in medical skills?
However, Shen Tianshu had no intention of exploring these at this time. She left the things on the dressing table untouched and dug out all the things in the boxes and boxes. Jade pendants, jade bracelets, gold hairpins, silver ornaments, silver notes... were valuable and convenient. Those who were taken away were not spared.
If you can wear it, wear it. If you can't, wrap it with a handkerchief and tie it to the ankles of your legs. Wear long stockings outside and cover them with obscene pants.
The original owner was already thin, so there was no clue about it from the outside.
Mingyu came back quickly with a food box and served Shen Tianshu breakfast. Before she could dress her up, Grandma Guo came over to remind her.
"Girl, the carriage is ready. I'm here to see if I can help you."
"It'll be ready soon." Shen Tianshu said this, but in fact she was not in a hurry. She sat in front of the dressing table and looked at the bronze mirror in front of her.
This was the first time she saw herself clearly after waking up.
Although her face was pale due to illness and her lips were dry and peeling, the girl in the mirror, with dark eyebrows and cut eyes, was so beautiful that she seemed to have monopolized all the favor of God, which made people forget to see her.
In her previous life, she was just a middle-aged girl. Compared to being pretty, she was more heroic.
Therefore, my grandfather often joked that she was born as a boy but was born in the wrong child.
Shen Tianshu raised his hand and caressed his cheek, sighing inwardly, with such a good appearance, it is not very safe to go out!
Mingyu quickly combed Shen Tianshu's hair into a bun and put on the headdress. He was about to start putting on makeup when he was stopped.
"There's no need for makeup, that's it." Shen Tianshu said and stood up. When Mingyue turned around, he raised his hand and wiped it on the table, then secretly put the peach blossom powder and rouge that he had been promising into his sleeve.
Mingyu didn't notice, and helped Shen Tianshu put on her curtain hat, helped her follow Granny Guo, and left the house through the side door. The carriage and entourage were already waiting at the door.
After the master and servant got into the car, Shen Tianshu began to close his eyes and rest, but his heart was not as calm as it seemed.
No matter what, you should go home and take a look, maybe there is still someone alive.
Even if she is just an apprentice or a servant girl...
This was the only thought that was holding her up and keeping her from collapse now.
She didn't even dare to think about what she would do if she returned home and saw nothing but scorched earth.
In order to relieve the anxiety in his heart, Shen Tianshu began to think about how to escape from the control of the Shen family, and how to return home smoothly after leaving.
Unlike the original owner, she has never been a boudoir girl who never leaves the house.
She followed her grandfather to practice medicine since she was a child, and had traveled to more than half of Qi before she reached her age.
As an adult, her grandfather grew older, and she suddenly became famous for curing the Queen Mother's old illness. She gradually began to take people out for consultations and collect medicines on her own. Naturally, she encountered danger many times during this period. Fortunately, she saved the day every time, so she accumulated a lot of experience. A lot of Jianghu experience and self-protection ability.
She is not an innocent boudoir girl, and she also knows that every city has a dark side hidden under the water.
As long as she has money and finds the right way, she is fully capable of getting it done smoothly, whether it is official guidance or household registration.
However, what Shen Tianshu didn't know was that shortly after her carriage drove out of the city gate, two carriages covering the Shen's emblem also followed her out of the city gate.
