She jumped off the car, found an empty space, and picked up a few stones to build a temporary small stove. However, she became anxious when she started a fire, because it had just rained in the surroundings, and the soil on the ground was wet. She couldn't light a fire even after a few times.

In the midst of her anxiety, a slender hand took the Fire Break from her hands and said, "Let me do it."

He didn't know how Gu Yiqing did it, but after he used something to stir up the moist wood, a fire was slowly ignited.

Gu Yiqing personally looked at the fire medicine. When the medicine was ready, it was dried until it was warm. Only then did she take it.

Gu Jinzhu's face was red in the face, and she clenched her teeth tightly. After feeding it a few times, the fragrance flowed from her lips and almost spilled half of it.

The two girls were at a loss of what to do. In the end, Gu Yiqing could not stand to watch any longer. She supported Gu Jinzhu up and leaned against him. One of her hands pinched open her jaw and she swallowed the medicine.

Both Yun Xiang and Bi Xi looked at each other, feeling uneasy. Gu Jinzhu was in his embrace, her black hair flowing down one of his shoulders. He had one arm around her and the other hand feeding her medicine, as if he was holding a beautiful pearl in his arms.

Although the two girls knew they were lacking in status, their faces still turned red. Gayn's scene was just too beautiful; it was only a few years apart. The man was as handsome as the moon, and the girl was as delicate as a flower.

Yun Xiang stared blankly. She had initially been wary of men and women, but a strange thought suddenly flashed through her mind. If Third Master Gu and Young Miss weren't from the same family, then they were quite compatible.

Luckily, Gu Yiqing quickly finished feeding the medicine, put down the beads, and carefully tucked her in. He told the two girls to take good care of her at night and jumped off the car. No one noticed that the tip of his left hand could not help but gently touch it, as if he could still feel that silky warmth.

That night, the three girls slept in the carriage while Gu Yiqing and her servant rested with their backs against a tree.

Even though the two girls took turns taking care of her during the night, Gu Jinzhu's illness had started to occur again and again in the morning. Her forehead was burning hot again, and even drinking medicine wouldn't have any effect.

The weather was still gloomy. The air was mixed with moisture, giving off the feeling of a gloomy rain.

The two girls were so anxious that their faces changed. Gu Yiqing only hesitated for a moment before instructing Xue Yi, "Change the route and leave from the Tong Mansion!"

Meng Xue Yi was shocked. "Grandpa, if I were to change my path, it would take at least three days!"

No one knew more than he did how anxious his master was. They were afraid that a change might happen in Binzhou City if they delayed for even one more day.

However, Gu Jinzhu's illness could no longer be dragged on. Gu Yiqing raised her whip and urged her horse to go in the other direction. Meng Xueyi could not do anything but follow her in the car.

Along the way, the carriage jolted non-stop. Gu Jinzhu's sleep was very unstable. As Yun Xiang watched her young miss wither and lose weight in just two days, her heart ached to the point of almost crying.

In the past, when they talked about going out, they had always wanted to go out for sightseeing, but who would have thought that they would suffer so much? They would eat and sleep so badly, and even the usually lively Biden would lose her spirit and stay in the corner of the car.

After travelling for half a day, the rain started to fall again. It was drizzling non-stop. Gu Yingqing did not wear her raincoat. In just a short while, her entire body was drenched.

Fortunately, they arrived at a town very quickly. Gu Yiqing went to the clinic and personally carried Gu Jinzhu out of the car. She didn't feel anything when she saw how young she was, but Yun Xiang was stunned for a moment.

Fortunately, Gu Jinzhu hadn't suffered any major injuries; she had only suffered a chill. After prescribing and drinking it, her fever quickly subsided.

After resting at the infirmary for a day, Gu Jinzhu felt much better the next day. Gu Yingqing could not stay any longer, so she grabbed a few more days' worth of medicine before continuing on her journey.

When Gu Jinzhu woke up, she knew that she had dragged Gu Yiqing down with her. She couldn't tell what she was feeling. She had never known this Third Uncle before, but she was tired of him taking care of her along the way.

According to her, he was the one who cooked all the herbs in the past few days, so he was afraid that she might be weak due to illness. He even cooked wild game along the way and added medicinal herbs to make her meat porridge.

On the way, she was very lonely. She told her everything that had happened in the past two days, and also told her that it was San Ye who had given her the medicine when she was unconscious.

She had never been so close to a man in her entire life, so she really couldn't think of what it would be like to 'personally feed the medicine'. However, her heart was slightly moved.

It took her three or four days to recover from her illness. Three days later, the continuous rain stopped and the sky became sunny and warm. The distant green plains were filled with the fragrance of butterflies and flowers, causing one's heart to feel warm.

The car stopped under a tree. The aroma rolled up the curtain as the sunlight shone in diagonally. Gu Jinzhu's slightly pale face was dyed with a trace of blood.

She had lost a lot of weight from this illness. Her originally slightly plump face became thinner, revealing a clear and delicate line. Her pair of eyes became increasingly quiet and jet-black. Her long eyelashes were like butterfly wings as they drew a beautiful shadow under her eyelids.

Yun Xiang took a long green satin robe and draped it over her body. These few days, she practically treated her as if she was made out of glass, fearing that she would catch another cold.

She looked over at the open space not far away, where Meng Xueyan had beaten more than a dozen birds and stripped them clean. Gu Yiqing had set up a rack on the open space, put the birds on it, and then roasted them.

It was unknown what he put in there, but the smell was salty and fragrant, making one drool.

She watched as he methodically put the bird on the bamboo stick, rolled up his sleeves and spread the seasonings over the fire. His movements were smooth and unhurried.

"People say that you're a gentleman, but San Ye doesn't have that kind of airs. He's much better than those virtuous lords. It's hard to imagine that a noble young master of the Mansion of the Prefecture Duke could do something like that."

Gu Jinzhu secretly shook her head as she looked at the silly look on this girl's face. In the end, she was still a little girl. She only took a fancy to one person's appearance, but she knew that this Third Uncle had suffered a lot in the Manor.

Even though he had a noble and noble appearance, and he looked gentle and gentle, looking at the bloodstained clothes that were filled with killing intent, he was extremely respectful to him. He did not dare to defy the order in the slightest, and he knew that this person was not as simple as he appeared on the surface.

I wonder what this uncle has been through all these years to become like this?
