In the wing room, Licorice stood next to Gu Ruanruan, dipping a handkerchief in cold water and applying it on her forehead.

Gu Ruanruan was in a daze due to fever, and he still grabbed Licorice's hand and asked her, "Is Brother Ruoyun here?"

After all, he has been serving his eldest master since he was a child. He would be lying if he said he didn't feel sorry for her. Licorice was already soft-hearted, and now her eyes were filled with tears.

"Xunfu has already gone to report it. The second master is soft-hearted and will definitely come."

Gu Ruanruan smiled weakly: "That's good."

Licorice's eyes became even redder.

"Auntie, why do you have to treat your body like this? In the Prime Minister's Mansion, you were also a rich lady who was pampered and grew up. Now you are like this... it makes me feel distressed... It is my servant who did not take good care of you and made you feel wronged. ”

Unexpectedly, when Gu Ruanruan heard this, a light flashed in his eyes.

"It's good to be wronged... I just want others to see that I have been wronged in Hefu..."

It would be best if she could convince Xiao Ruoyun today to take her to the palace in a few days. She wouldn't mind dragging her illness with her until that day.

Not long after, Xiao Ruoyun hurried over.

He was resentful at first, but when he saw Gu Ruanruan burning up and losing consciousness, his resentment dissipated a little.

Gu Ruanruan saw him coming and was not in a hurry to get close to him. He just turned his head silently and tears fell from his eyes one by one.

The way she was crying silently made Xiao Ruoyun a little at a loss.

He stood by the bed and opened his mouth, and finally sighed, "It's a fever. The doctor will be here soon. Just hold on for a while."

Gu Ruanruan still didn't speak, but his tears flowed faster, and soon the pillow was wet.

After a while, the doctor from the Hou Mansion came. After checking her pulse, he also said that her fever was dangerous, and he hurriedly wrote a prescription and boiled the medicine for her.

The room was very quiet, with only the sound of servants walking back and forth. Xiao Ruoyun felt a little uncomfortable. He found a chair and sat closer to Gu Ruanruan.

"Are you feeling uncomfortable? It's okay. You'll feel better after taking the medicine for a while."

He was not very good at coaxing people, but now looking at the haggard Gu Ruanruan, his mind recalled the time when they played together when they were children.

He used to regard Gu Ruanruan as his sister, and later he fell in love with her. Now seeing Gu Ruanruan like this, he felt uncomfortable and his tone softened.

But Gu Ruanruan seemed to have made up his mind and kept silent as the medicine came. He drank the bitter medicine silently without any coquettishness or complaint.

Xiao Ruoyun felt that something was wrong more and more, and asked a few questions in a low voice. Gu Ruanruan turned her back to him, and after a while she said in a crying voice, "I...I miss my mother..."

Just this sentence.

Xiao Ruoyun's heart instantly softened into a mess.

He knew that many women would miss their parents' family after getting married. Gu Ruanruan had never said that, so he thought that Gu Ruanruan didn't care. Now that he saw her being so ill, his heart twitched when he said this.

Xiao Ruoyun sighed, "If you really want to, you can take a good rest. When you recover, I will take you back to see you."

It was okay if Xiao Ruoyun didn't say anything. When he said it, Gu Ruanruan started crying silently, sobbing quietly, and in the end she actually cried out.

"No, I don't dare to go back. My mother was so unhappy before I got married. She wouldn't want to see me."

"I also did something wrong, my parents didn't like it, and my sister was also angry with me... In this world, I obviously have both parents, but now I feel like a helpless orphan..."

This sentence made Xiao Ruoyun feel the same.

He lost his father when he was young, and his mother was from such a background. He had never even seen her. Although he was loved by his brother, he was very lonely most of the time. Seeing Gu Ruanruan like this now, he couldn't help but feel the same way in his heart. .

He came closer and took Gu Ruanruan's hand in his.

"It doesn't matter, it's okay as long as you know you were wrong."

He really wanted Gu Ruanruan to go back to the yard of the second room with him now, but thinking of what she had done before, he still hardened his heart and said: "You stay in the ancestral hall for a few days. When the eldest sister-in-law sees that you repent, she will definitely I will forgive you."

Gu Ruanruan Xiaosheng sobbed and said, "I know that my sister has a big belly, and we are in the Hou Mansion. Even if she doesn't forgive me, I can still pray for her forgiveness, but my father and mother... I have no face to see them in this life." They are.”

"How could it be? Don't cry. Concubine Zhou will hold a banquet in the palace in a few days..."

Xiao Ruoyun hesitated for a few moments, but finally made up his mind and said: "Concubine Zhou will hold a banquet in the palace in a few days, and Prime Minister Gu and Mrs. Gu will also go with her. I will take you to see them then."

Gu Ruanruan turned around and shook his head at him with tears in his eyes, looking extremely pitiful.

"I'm still thinking about it, I shouldn't follow you out of the house. I was grounded in the ancestral hall because of your order, brother Ruoyun. You are the master of the second room. I don't blame you. I accept this punishment willingly; but I don't want to Others say you are a soft-hearted person who indulges in addiction, but with just a few words, my aunt instigated you to ignore your elder brother and sister-in-law's treatment and show mercy to me. This is not good."

Gu Ruanruan's words, retreating in order to advance, made Xiao Ruoyun feel even more distressed.

"It's okay. My brother and eldest sister-in-law have said that I can handle things in my own room by myself. You take good care of her. I will take you with me when we enter the palace."

After his words, Gu Ruanruan fell silent, and after a long while he said to Qiqi Aiai: "Then... let's talk about it then. If my sister is not happy then, I won't go."

She kept pushing back like this, and she really looked like she was thinking about Xiao Ruoyun, so Xiao Ruoyun lost all suspicion and comforted her to have a good rest.

Xiao Ruoyun still felt sorry for her after all, and stayed until dawn before returning to his hospital.

After Gu Ruanruan drank the medicine, his head started to burn again, and his body temperature finally recovered just before dawn.

Gu Baiyu woke up early in the morning and listened to Lingyu muttering about the situation over Gu Ruanruan.

"This servant looked at the distressed look on Second Master's face when he left the ancestral hall. I wonder if I will bring Aunt Gu into the palace together in a few days."

Lingyu was indignant, "Why is the second master so soft-hearted? How many times have I suffered losses and been deceived, but I still failed with Aunt Gu!"

In fact, what Lingyu wants to say is that Xiao Ruoyun is too soft-hearted and weak-minded, which is a big taboo for men. He can be manipulated so easily by a woman, which is really useless.

But she was a servant, so even if she and Gu Baiyu were alone, she would not be able to say such treasonous words.

Of course Gu Baiyu understood what Lingyu was thinking and nodded her forehead with a smile.

"Don't discuss the master's affairs on your own. If he wants to take it with him, just take it with him."

"Miss, why are you so soft-hearted?"

Gu Baiyu looked like an old god, "I'm not soft-hearted, I just thought of something. Maybe if she follows her into the palace, we can watch a good show."

Lingyu's curiosity was aroused, "What's going on?"

"I have ordered the Marquis's secret guards to investigate. Don't tell you if I find out."
