Lu Ling returned to Qingfengyuan in a daze.
Xiao Rong walked in cautiously, took out the bottle of ointment, and whispered: "Young madam, I will apply the ointment on you."
Lu Ling raised his hand and took a look. The redness on the back of his hand faded a little. He then lifted up his sleeves and looked at his arms. The same was true for his arms.
At this time, her whole body was still red and hot. Although she couldn't feel the heat, she could feel the burning sting.
The burn didn't heal, so the coldness temporarily disappeared from her body.
Song Wenzhou's words "You are no longer cold, I will make up for all the past mistakes" flashed through Lu Ling's mind, and she felt uncomfortable...
The next day, there was a pattering of autumn rain.
Lu Ling gathered his emotions and was about to go see Mrs. Lu.
Before stepping out of the courtyard, the maid said:
"Madam, my cousin is here."
Lu Ling looked up and saw Liu Qingyun's slightly swollen eyes and pale cheeks.
"Sister-in-law, let me see you." Liu Qingyun forced out an awkward smile.
Lu Ling could only retreat into the house.
Liu Qingyun sat on the stool, and Lu Ling said lightly: "Xiao Rong, make some tea."
Xiaorong agreed and went.
Liu Qingyun held her hands in front of her lower abdomen, looking a little uneasy.
"Sister-in-law, how are you... how are you recovering from your burn?"
Lu Ling looked into her eyes and replied calmly: "It's okay."
She would not believe that Liu Qingyun would care about her.
"May I take a look at it?"
Liu Qingyun stared at Lu Ling's hand.
Lu Ling smiled faintly and raised his hand into the air.
Liu Qingyun stood up, quickly reached out to touch Lu Ling's hand, and grabbed it in her own.
There was a slight tingling sensation on his skin again, and Lu Ling frowned slightly.
Liu Qingyun held Lu Ling's hand tightly, trying to feel the temperature of those hands.
Lu Ling stared at her face and could clearly see that her face was getting ugly little by little.
"I...can I see your face?" Liu Qingyun looked into Lu Ling's eyes and asked tremblingly.
Lu Ling nodded and moved his face slightly towards her.
Liu Qingyun put her hand on Lu Ling's face again, carefully feeling the temperature on it.
After a long time, Liu Qingyun retracted her hand tremblingly, squeezed out a smile that was uglier than crying, and said: "Sister-in-law, my cousin is right, the coldness in your body is really gone..."
Lu Ling raised the corners of his mouth, tilted his head and asked, "The coldness in my body is gone. Are you very happy for me?"
"Yes, I am very happy for my sister-in-law..."
Liu Qingyun's smile was bitter and astringent. She tried to make her smile look normal, but found that she couldn't do it. Instead, the corners of her mouth twitched a few times, making her look a little weird.
Lu Ling took in all her forced smiles.
Oh, she understood. What Song Wenzhou said yesterday hurt her heart.
She was worried that she would be abandoned by Song Wenzhou...
Haha, it’s really not a thing...
"Young Madam," Xiao Rong came in carrying a bowl of porridge with a smile, "This is the seafood porridge that the master asked the kitchen to make for you."
She put the porridge on the small table next to the couch.
Lu Ling took a quick look and saw that the seafood porridge looked very tempting.
The porridge is mixed with fresh shrimps and abalone, and some chopped coriander and green onions are added to the porridge, which adds a touch of fresh greenery to the whole bowl of porridge.
"Why don't you serve an extra bowl? Didn't you see my cousin here?"
Xiao Rong seemed to have remembered it, and said oh twice, and turned around to go out and get another bowl, but she heard Liu Qingyun say: "No! No need!"
Lu Ling looked over and saw that Liu Qingyun's face was pale, her brows were furrowed, and she was covering her mouth and nose with her hands, as if she was enduring some unbearable smell.
Lu Ling looked at the bowl of fresh and tempting seafood porridge in confusion.
It smells very delicious, right?
Xiao Rong asked at the door: "Ms. Cousin, what's wrong with you?"
Before she finished speaking, Liu Qingyun stood up abruptly and made a yue sound, clearly indicating that she was nauseated and about to vomit.
She covered her mouth and nose tightly with her hands. Lu Ling didn't know if she had vomited something.
Lu Ling quickly stood up and patted her back gently, frowning and asked: "What's wrong with you? Should I ask Xiaorong to ask for Dr. Chu?"
"Don't! Don't!" Panic flashed through Liu Qingyun's eyes, and she quickly pushed Lu Ling away. There was no vomit in her hands, "No, I just... I just had a bad stomach, so I suddenly saw this seafood porridge. , a little nauseous..."
Lu Ling looked at her strange expression and suddenly had some suspicion in his heart.
"Sister-in-law, you can have breakfast, I'm going back..." Liu Qingyun forced a smile and hurriedly stepped out of the threshold.
Bai Zhi held an umbrella and covered Liu Qingyun's head, and the master and servant quickly left Qingfengyuan.
When Xiaorong saw the two people leaving, she turned around and asked Lu Ling with a confused look on her face: "Young madam, what's wrong with my cousin?"
Lu Ling thought for a long time, then suddenly the corner of his mouth curled up into a strange smile.
Liu Qingyun stepped on the stagnant water, her skirt was splashed with small mud spots, and went to Cuiyuxuan.
Ever since Yu Qing was promoted as a concubine, Song Wenzhou almost always stayed there.
After being beaten last night, Song Wenzhou was also carried to Cuiyuxuan.
Liu Qingyun knew he was there.
"Yu Qing, let me see my cousin." Liu Qingyun smiled and walked inside.
Yu Qing was already in a bad mood because of Song Wenzhou's beating, but now she saw Liu Qingyun and her face fell even more.
She snorted and said, "Master, it's not convenient for him."
He said blocking the door.
"I..." Liu Qingyun was speechless.
Yuqing said again: "The young master's butt has been beaten. Can you, a girl, see it?"
Bai Zhi stood up and responded unceremoniously: "You are just an aunt, why should you stop my cousin!"
"Hey, you also know that she is a cousin, right?" Yu Qing showed no sign of weakness, "I'm just eating and drinking in the Song family, and I'm pretending to be a young lady. I don't know who gave me the face!"
Liu Qingyun blushed and was speechless.
Yu Qing was right, she was not a girl from the Song family. She was only taken into the Song family because of Mrs. Song's sympathy and escaped from that rotten family.
To put it bluntly, she was living under someone else's roof. Before, her aunt was in charge of the family, and the servants were afraid of her, so she gave herself some face. But now, her aunt was beaten by her uncle, and the servants are no longer afraid of her. As a cousin, she is nothing... …
She was secretly feeling aggrieved when she suddenly heard Song Wenzhou say in the room: "Yu Qing, let my cousin come in."
Hearing this, Yu Qing reluctantly stepped aside and followed Liu Qingyun into the house.
Liu Qingyun saw Song Wenzhou lying on the bed with a pale face, and the original complaint in her heart turned into distress.
Song Wenzhou said: "Yu Qing, please go out."
Yuqing:?
She shook her head: "Master, I want to serve you here."
Song Wenzhou looked unhappy and said angrily: "Get out quickly, don't let me say it again!"
Yu Qing stamped her foot, glared at Liu Qingyun dissatisfied, and then walked out and closed the door.
"Cousin, why did you lie to me?" Liu Qingyun burst into tears, half-kneeling in front of the couch and looking at Song Wenzhou with an aggrieved face.
"When did I lie to you?" Song Wenzhou looked irritated.
"Everyone in the Song family heard what you said to Lu Ling yesterday. You said you wanted to live happily with Lu Ling for the rest of your life! You also said you didn't lie to me!"
