Hi (*-*)
Chapter 56 Enquiry
"Pop",
the white teacup fell to the ground with a crisp ringing sound.
"Xin Ge’er
has fainted?" Lin Shi couldn't believe her ears, her body was
shaking and she was about to faint, "Xin Ge’er, my Xin Ge’er......"
Liu Mama held Lin Shi's hand and
quickly reassured her: "Second Furen, don't worry, the Second Young
Master is lucky, he will be fine."
"Where is my
brother now?" Nangong Yue clenched her fist, and she coldly looked at the Pozi
who had come to report the news. Brother had just finished his meal and went
out to digest, in just a short time, how could something happen?
That Pozi
trembled and said: "just carried into the courtyard ......" When she
thought of the appearance of the Second Young Master she just saw, her heart
was suddenly beating non-stop. Last time the second young master drowned which
led Yun Niang and Zuan Bi were sold. If the Second Young Master really had any
accident this time, I do not know who will be implicated in this Mansion?
“Xin Ge’er, Xin
Ge’er......" Lin Shi stumbles towards the outside and the maid Ruyi
is carefully holding her from the other side.
Although Nangong
Yue’s heart is also anxious, there are some things she still wants to ask more
clearly: "What about Qingya, where is she? Isn't she supposed to be with
brother?"
“Qing Ya girl
also fainted, and still hasn't woken up yet." The Pozi was
hurriedly added.
"Xin
Ge’er!" Lin Shi's heartbreaking cries heard from outside, Nangong
Yue could not help but feel a tight heart, quickly step out of the room and
then there was a buzzing in the brain.
She saw that
Nangong Xin was being carried by four burly Pozis, he obviously lost
consciousness, his body was limp, his eyes were tightly closed and his face was
bloodless.
Nangong Yue's
heart felt like it hurt like pins and needles, her hands clenched into fists,
her nails pinched deep into her skin.
"Quickly,
carry the Second Young Master to the room." Liu Mama ordered in a
loud voice, "Quickly, go get the doctor and send someone to inform the
Second Master!"
The maids
carried Nangong Xin into his room together and Lin Shi cried out as she
followed. One of the other two maids answered and went to ask the doctor, while
the other hurriedly ran out of the Shallow Cloud Courtyard to find the Second
Master in the outer courtyard study.
"You
......" Liu Mama pointed to a small maid and said, "Go and see
how Qing Ya is doing and come report immediately when she wakes up!"
That little maid
hurriedly replied and went away.
Nangong Yue
looked at Liu Mama's command, nodded praise in her heart, then
instructed Que’er a few words and stepped into the room.
Nangong Xin was
lying on the bed, still unconscious and not waking up. Lin Shi is
sitting by the bedside sadly calling his name: "Xin Ge’er, Xin Ge’er......"
"Brother!"
Nangong Yue went to the bedside, her heart was sour and muddy, her eyes were
even wet.
She reached out
to take Nangong Xin's pulse, pondered for a moment, took out the purse
containing silver needles and said, "Mother, why don't I give acupuncture
to my brother to move his qi?"
"No!"
Lin Shi cried, her eyes widened in disapproval and she said with a slight
agitation, "Yue Jie'er, It won’t do. Giving an acupuncture
treatment is no joke. If the needle is inserted down, that is the slightest difference
leads to a huge error. After all, you have not studied medicine for a long
time, it is better to wait for the doctor to come." If there is any
accident, then both of her children will be ruined.
At this time,
Nangong Mu walked in with big steps. "How is Xin Ge’er?"
"My brother
is not awake yet, and I am thinking of giving acupuncture treatment for him to
move his qi."
"Yue Jie'er,
be a good girl, if you want to practice acupuncture, wait for some more time.
it's better to leave your brother's matter to the doctor." Nangong Mu
smiled but had a tone of coaxing a child, making Nangong Yue cry and laugh, she
sighed and had to withdraw the silver needle. After all, it was because she was
too young and her father and mother still did not have enough confidence in her
medical skills. It seemed that she had to wait for the doctor to come and see
what happened.
At that moment,
a maid hurriedly ran in. "Second Master, Second Furen, Miss Third,
Sister Qingya has woken up."
"Then I
shall go and check it out." Nangong Yue hurriedly said. Anyway, she couldn't
apply needles to her brother for the time being, so she might as well go and
ask Qing Ya what had happened first.
Nangong Yue
quickly stepped out of the room and turned to Qing Ya's room.
Qing Ya was
lying on the bed with a pale face, and when she saw Nangong Yue enter, she
struggled to get up and salute.
"Qingya,
just lie down and talk about it." Nangong Yue asked solemnly, "What
happened today when you accompanied Big Brother to digest food?"
Qing Ya still
insisted on sitting up to answer back, "Many thanks, Miss Third."
Saying that, she showed a frightened look on her face, but still tried to
recall the incident of them bumping into the ghost in the garden and said
carefully, finally her pretty face was ghastly white, "That ghost face
suddenly appeared and scared the slave girl on the spot ......"
Ghosts! The more
Nangong Yue listened, the more ugly her face became. This is clearly someone
purposely pretending to be a ghost and this person deliberately targeting my
brother? Then who exactly has the brother offended?
"Miss
Third," Qing Ya looked at her timidly and asked, "Is the Second Young
Master alright? It's this servant's fault for being too timid ......" she
said, worried and blaming herself.
"My brother
will be fine." Nangong Yue said coldly, then her tone slowed down,
"You rest well." After saying that, she walked briskly out of Qing
Ya's room.
At that moment,
Que’er led a dry and thin Pozi towards Nangong Yue in a hurry.
"Miss Third
......" Que’er bowed to Nangong Yue and introduced the Pozi,
"Miss Third, this is Ning Pozi. Tonight she happened to be on night
patrol at that end of the garden's back door. She just saw a figure, threw
something and disappeared in the blink of an eye."
Nangong Yue
looked at Ning Pozi and asked, "Did you see what that person looked
like? What did he throw?"
Ning Pozi
is nearly fifty years old and she seems to be very shrewd with her eyebrows.
She first bowed to Nangong Yue, followed by a respectful reply: "That
person ran too fast, Nubi did not see clearly, but found something and Nubi
brought it." She said she presented a blue package, and said,
"This thing looks creepy, Nubi purposely found a piece of cloth
wrapped up. Miss Third should not look at it, so as not to be frightened."
"Don't
worry, I won't be frightened." Nangong Yue gestured to Que’er to open the
baggage. Que’er immediately understood, took the bag and opened it three times,
revealing a white dress and a tragic white ghost face mask wrapped in it.
The people
present saw, all sucked in a cold breath, only to see that the ghost face mask
dug two black ghostly eye holes, under the eye holes painted with bloody tears
of blood, bright red tongue stretched long.
Nangong Yue took
one look at the ghost mask and then focused on the white dress, the stitching
was crooked and not fine, the person who made this dress was probably either
deliberate or in a hurry because there was not enough time to make it. That
means it wasn't planned for a long time, it was most likely a sudden decision
made today.
Nangong Yue
rubbed the white clothes with her fingers, then suddenly her heart stirred, the
fabric was like......
A thoughtful
expression appeared on her face.
