Although Li Da repeatedly promised that the effect of the medicine would be gone when the time was up, he could not tell a specific time.
Guan Yi didn't dare to let him go, so he stayed with him to guard him. However, in the middle of the night, Zhou Qiong still couldn't move.
Guan Yi was worried and sighed, "This medicine is really effective. Master, we must ask for some back when we see the old man next time."
Zhou Qiong took a deep breath, closed her eyes, and felt something out of sight.
After waiting for another hour, seeing that more than half of the ugly time had passed, Zhou Qiong still couldn't move. Guan Yi couldn't wait any longer and asked, "How about I go find a doctor to take a look?"
Zhou Qiong said nothing, obviously not agreeing.
"How about I ask Miss Tang to come and take a look? It's not good for you to just lie down and not be able to move. What if there are any sequelae? Didn't Miss Tang study with Mr. Tang for a while? Maybe so? Can you solve it?"
As soon as Zhou Qiong heard him mention Yunling, her mind was filled with memories of the scene in the pool.
The jade-white neck, slender and elegant, seemed to be bent over his heart when turned sideways, and the inner garment soaked in the pool water swayed gently with the water waves...
The charming excitement that had been frozen by the cold was rekindled.
The vigorous young man felt that the tip of his nose was hot, as if a warm current was about to surge from his heart, which could no longer be suppressed.
He instantly realized what it was and stretched out his hand to cover his nose.
Fortunately, the effects of the anesthesia gradually wore off, and he was finally able to regain strength in his hands.
"Master, can you move now? What's wrong with your nose?" Guan Yi asked in surprise.
Zhou Qiong turned over again and said in disgust: "Go wash up and rest. Look at how ugly you are after being on the road these past few days!"
Guan Yi raised his sleeve and smelled it, and said in surprise: "It's not summer, and I didn't sweat much while traveling."
On the contrary, he felt that the wind and snow along the way were very cold, and there was a bit of chill.
But seeing Zhou Qiong holding her nose and turning her back to him, Guan Yi had no choice but to touch his nose and go back to his room to wash up and rest.
Seeing this, Li Da also whispered at the door: "Prince Zhou, do you still need me to guard you? Can I go back?"
He has to accompany the eldest lady to the Dacheng Market tomorrow, so he has to go to bed.
Otherwise, if we were to freeze like this for one night in winter, our iron-clad body would not be able to withstand it.
Zhou Qiong said softly "Hmm", and Li Da immediately turned around and ran away as if he was amnesty.
Oops, as long as you can move. The old man's anesthetic is really strong. He will have to ask Lao Qi for one tomorrow.
Early the next morning, Xu Xiangxiang listened to the butler's story and realized that Zhou Qiong had gone home last night. He immediately smiled and said, "Okay, let him accompany us for a walk later."
Then she quietly leaned into Yunling's ear and said, "Qiong'er knows how to live a good life. She is especially good at finding faults when buying things. She knows how to bargain and save money."
He looked proud of his son's skill.
Yun Ling thought to herself, isn't it because Zhou Qiong is very poor?
However, the Zhou family is poor because it seems that the middle school of the Zhenxihou Mansion is very poor. The two ladies usually spend their money very generously, so they should have their own dowry money.
Although Zhou Qiong was so poor that he had to sacrifice his status to negotiate for the price, he still had some backbone and did not ask the two female relatives for money, which was much better than some wealthy families.
You must know that there are many wealthy families in Ruidu. On the surface, they look good, and the so-called family tradition is upright and fair, but in fact, they shamelessly occupy their daughter-in-law's dowry to supplement the father-in-law's income.
Some even took the daughters of merchants as concubines just for money, just for the dowry money they brought into the house.
Xu Xiangxiang didn't see Zhou Qiong come to the dining room after waiting for a long time, so he urged Xia Ying to ask, "Go and see, why do you sleep in as soon as you get home? This breakfast is almost cold."
Regardless of the occasion, Ling'er is still waiting here. Why doesn't this brat get up to greet her?
I usually like to get up early, but why do I let her off the hook at the critical moment?
Not long after, Guan Yi followed Xia Ying and replied.
"The Crown Prince asked Madam to have dinner with Miss Tang. He will take a shower and change clothes before coming over."
As he said that, he secretly looked at Yunling's expression.
But he saw the little girl sitting on the chair with a calm face, her eyes not squinting, her face not red, her heart not beating, and she looked quite dignified.
It seemed as if she was not the one who used a hidden weapon to stun the master last night, but someone else.
Yunling felt a little guilty when she saw Guan Yi looking at her all the time. According to Li Da, Zhou Qiong couldn't move a little until late at night... Could it be that he was still numb at this point?
But, who let him come in without saying hello yesterday?
Although, the housekeeper said in the morning that the prince only returned home last night, he probably didn't know that she lived in Zhuoyue Pavilion?
Fortunately, she is mature and open-minded, and does not care so much about the old-fashioned name of innocence. If it were another girl, Zhou Qiong would have to marry someone else.
Thinking of this, Yunling raised her chin high again.
What are you looking at? It’s just a one-night stand. It’ll be fine in a while!
Xu Xiangxiang glared at Guan Yi, "Hurry up and ask your master to get up and go shopping with me. Here, bring him breakfast. Quickly pack up and wait at the gate."
Then he turned to Yun Ling and smiled: "Ling'er, let's not wait for that brat. Let's eat first. This golden roll is not bad. You can try it."
Guan Yi held the tray and went to Zhou Qiong's room with a grimace.
Fortunately, Zhou Qiong was finally able to get up. After soaking in hot water for a while, she finally felt that her limbs were under control.
Hearing that Xu Xiangxiang wanted to take Yunling to Yuezhou Pier and asked him to accompany him, Zhou Qiong nodded and sat down to have breakfast.
Just looking at the food on the tray, he cast a puzzled look at Guan Yi.
Guan Yi coughed slightly, lowered his head and said, "Madam personally picked it for you."
Xia Yingyuan picked out some of the prince's favorite dishes for him, but when he went to pick them up, his wife took them away and brought him a plate of pickles and millet porridge instead.
According to him, Madam was still a little angry that the prince refused to get up.
Hearing that Xu Xiangxiang had prepared it for him, Zhou Qiong had no choice but to eat the meal with a frown, showing his mother's "concern".
When they arrived at the gate of the Zhou family, Xu Xiangxiang and Yunling had not yet come out of the inner courtyard, so Zhou Qiong simply sat in the carriage.
Soon, Xu Xiangxiang led Yunling to the carriage.
Seeing Guan Yi holding the horse and riding it aside, she became furious and couldn't help scolding: "You little bastard has grown up? He doesn't even want to listen to me. Hurry up and let him come over to accompany you." I’ll go to Dacheng Market, otherwise I’ll tell my mother and see if he can have a meal of fried shredded pork with bamboo shoots!”
This is the dialect she learned when she went to Lingpu Town.
Guan Yi tried his best to suppress his laughter and said, "The prince is already waiting for you in the carriage."
"Bunny" opened the carriage curtain at the right time, "Mom, I'm already here."
Xu Xiangxiang frowned and asked, "Why don't you ride a horse?"
Where is the valiant and heroic appearance of a good man?
How could he show himself when he hid in a carriage when it was cold?
