Chapter 90

After Ling Muer returned home, she first took a comfortable bath in the tub. She had just tidied herself up when a figure came in through the window.

"The little prince's hobbies are really special." Ling Muer sat in front of the vanity mirror, combing her hair.

Her long black hair hung down her back, and she was smoothing it out with slender fingers. She glanced at Su Ce and ignored him.

Su Ce did not expect that Ling Muer had just taken a bath. He couldn't help but think, if he came a quarter of an hour earlier, wouldn't he bump into someone he shouldn't? Thinking of this, he couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed. If I knew this earlier, I might as well come in through the gate. He just didn't want to make trouble, so he jumped over the wall and came in to find her.

Ling Mu'er's hair was still very wet, so she wiped it with a clean towel after combing it, so that it would dry faster. Su Ce didn't speak, and neither did she. Anyway, he is the one who cares about Mrs. Su, so what is she worried about?

Su Ce sat there drinking tea.

Although he was born in a wealthy family, he has experienced a lot since he was a child. Since he was fifteen years old, he has been working in the court, and he has been in contact with old foxes. He usually has the patience to fight wits with them. After Ling Mu'er finished tidying her hair, he put down the cup in his hand and looked at her.

At that moment, a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.

Ling Muer was wearing a long silver dress with small chrysanthemums embroidered on the skirt. The slender waist is full of grips against the backdrop of the long skirt. That plump figure feasted his eyes even more. She didn't coil up her long hair, but let it hang loose, and she was as lazy as a fox, which made people surprised and defensive at the same time.

"How is my grandmother's health?" Su Ce regained his senses and asked with lowered eyes.

"Didn't I say that? She is in very good health." Ling Muer raised her eyebrows. "You didn't listen to me when you were in the room?"

"You know those are words to comfort her. I want to hear the real situation." Su Ce frowned. "I've known for a long time that my grandmother was poisoned."

"When did you find out? Since I knew it a long time ago, why didn't you ask the imperial doctor to treat her? I'm a little country doctor and a girl, so you trust me?" Ling Muer looked at Su Ce indifferently. Said.

Su Ce's eyes were complicated. Her medical skills are unquestionable. However, trusting her so much was something he couldn't understand. Maybe it's because she saved him, so he felt a lot more at ease with her! Or maybe it's because she has the reputation of a medical fairy and has always been famous for her kindness. He is not afraid of her murdering an old woman whom she has never met.

"Okay, I won't tease you anymore. Your grandmother was indeed poisoned, and it was a chronic poison." Ling Mu'er said flatly, "It's too late to find out now. Even if you detoxify her, I'm afraid she won't survive Three years."

"What conditions do you want? As long as I can do it, you can ask for it. As long as you can save my grandmother's life." Su Ce said while shaking his palm.

Ling Muer glanced at him, playing with the broken hair beside her ear: "I'm not interested in your conditions. However, I'm interested in her poison. This kind of slow poison is the most troublesome. It's not very toxic. But it will erode into the flesh and blood little by little. I also want to find out what kind of poison it is. You find a chance to let me see what she eats and uses. This kind of poison is not necessarily for food, it may also be placed on the body. On supplies she uses frequently."

"If you want to see my grandmother's supplies, you have to accompany her often. In this way, you have to stay in the mansion for a few more days. I don't know when it is convenient. I can arrange it for you. As for the identity... just say it's me My confidante. Is this possible?" Su Ce raised his eyebrows and looked at her.

"What do you think? If you can't arrange a reasonable identity for me, you don't have to look for me. If I help you, but also risk being chased and killed by your admirers, wouldn't I be at a loss?" Ling Mu'er said angrily: "I can't tell what to give and what to accept between men and women. If you have nothing else to do, go back first! I'm going to rest."

"Don't be angry, just don't tease you. I will make arrangements and come pick you up tomorrow." Su Ce said to Ling Muer, and left through the window like a white shadow.

Ling Muer shook her head: "This little county king is really..."

On the second day, Ling Muer first went to Zhu's house to treat Zhu Chi's eyes. Zhu Qingfeng didn't let her get close to him, but he would watch from outside the door while she was treating Zhu Qi. He regards his only son more than anything else. It can be seen that this man's pedantry is not hopeless.

"How is it? Chi'er?" Yao Shi looked at Zhu Chi nervously.

Zhu Qi smiled softly and said, "Don't worry, mother, I'm fine."

"Eyes..." Yao Shi looked at Zhu Qi with a glimmer of hope.

"It's a little itchy and stinging. I don't feel anything else. Oh yes, there seem to be more and more white spots of light." Zhu Qi hesitated.

After hearing Zhu Chi's description, Ling Mu'er put the prepared ointment on his eyes, and said, "Three times a day, apply it for two hours at a time. You don't have to lie down for two hours, you can use a cloth Tie the eye piece so the ointment won't fall off."

"I'll make a cloth bag later." Yao said quickly, "Girl, do you have any other orders?"

"This is the medicine to take. Remember to boil it for him." Ling Muer pointed to the medicine bag next to him and said, "You can let him sit in the yard instead of staying in the room all day. Even if he is a good one People, if you stay in this place all day, it will be boring."

"Yes." Yao replied while nodding.

"I'm leaving first. I'm going to see an old man tomorrow, and I'll stay at his home for the next few days. I'll come later to give you an injection. So I don't know when I can arrive tomorrow. Arrive Let's talk about it later!" Ling Muer didn't want Yao Shi to misunderstand, so she explained clearly to her first.

"Girl...you don't want to ignore us, do you?" Yao really misunderstood.

Ling Muer shook her head and denied, "Of course not. I'll go back first."

It wasn't until Ling Mu'er's figure walked away that Zhu Qingfeng walked into the room with a cane. Yao shi hurriedly supported him and asked him to sit down.

Although Zhu Qi couldn't see, he had excellent hearing and smell. There were also three breathing sounds in the room, one was him, the other was his mother, and the third was his father.

"Father, that Miss Ling seems to be a good person. Her younger brother should not be too bad. Do you want to think about it?" Zhu Qi said gently.

Zhu Qingfeng glanced at Zhu Chi: "You listen to her. Before she asks you for help, you start helping her as a lobbyist."

Zhu Qi blushed, and said helplessly, "Father, what are you talking about? Do you know what it would look like if someone heard what you said?"

"Others can think whatever they like." Zhu Qingfeng said disdainfully: "The mouth grows on others, why don't you let them talk about it? We have a clear conscience."

Zhu Qi sighed softly. Over the years, he had hoped so much to be able to see so that he could help his parents. Father is too stubborn, mother is too weak, if this continues, what will their family do? Mother has already pawned the last hairpin, right? Is there only the bottom of the altar left for the rice grain at home?

Although he couldn't see it, he felt it, and nothing could be hidden from his eyes. That's why he hoped that his father would not be so stubborn. Miss Ling is so nice, her family must be easy to get along with. If dad really became the wife of their Ling family, the family's food and accommodation would not be a problem in the future. Dad really doesn't want to live in Ling's house, they can still live here. As long as father doesn't care about anything and let mother worry about livelihood alone, as a man, at least he should also consider the livelihood of the family.

"Let's see it again!" Zhu Qingfeng didn't refuse this time.

Yao looked at Zhu Qingfeng in surprise. As Zhu Qingfeng's first wife, she knows his personality very well. That is so rare today.

Ling Muer was picked up by Su Ce not long after she returned. Su Ce sat in the carriage, crossed his fingers, and looked at the girl opposite.

There was still thin sweat on the girl's face, obviously she just came back from a long journey. She was carrying a heavy suitcase. That box may not look like much, but it contained human lives.

Su Ce couldn't understand this woman. Maybe he never understood it. This girl is always different from other women. After seeing this woman, I feel like a vulgar fan when I see other women. It's a pity that the status is too low. If her status can be slightly higher, maybe they...

Su Ce was stunned. What was he thinking at that moment? He actually had a ridiculous idea. Su Ce touched his forehead with a helpless expression.

Is it true that, as grandma said, he should lift two aunts? Even if you don't want aunts, how many maids should you take into the house? Otherwise, why would he have such strange thoughts about a little village girl?

The boys from other families had roommates when they were teenagers, but he never let women get close these years. Could it be that he also developed a man's instinct?

"You sigh for a while, touch your forehead for a while, and touch your nose for a while... Mr. Su, you are not thinking about spring, are you?" Ling Muer couldn't help but feel hairy when he saw Su Ce like this.

After all, Su Ce usually wears a perfect fox mask. Today, he is sometimes annoyed, sometimes shy, and sometimes hesitant to speak. It is really weird.

Su Ce looked at Ling Muer profoundly, showing the same smile as usual: "There is only a girl in front of me, you say I miss spring, do you think I treat you..."

Ling Mu'er quickly stopped him: "I must have misunderstood. With Mr. Su, no, what kind of woman is there in his status as the little county king? I am used to seeing all kinds of top-quality beauties, and women in the world are also in your eyes." That's all. How could you miss spring?"

"That's right." Su Ce said with a faint smile, "So, you want to miss me?"

"..." The corners of Ling Muer's mouth twitched. "You're not my type."

"Huh?" Su Ce raised his eyebrows. "vegetable?"

"It means that you are not my type. I don't like you." Ling Mu'er said bluntly: "Of course, our identities are different, we can't match each other, and we won't have any intersection. Like now Because I am a doctor and you are the family member of the patient, that's why we have contacts."

"I thought... we were friends after all." Su Ce chuckled. "It seems that in the eyes of the girl, there is no difference between me and a snake or scorpion."
