After rebirth, I kidnapped the sickly Dugong

While these things were happening in Simian Pavilion, Ping'an and Cuizhi were guarding the inn, and they were also very anxious.

Ping An was required to stay in bed and not walk around freely because his injuries had not yet healed.

Cuizhi held the bowl of medicine beside him.

"What time is it now? Why haven't the master and the mistress come back yet?" Ping'an didn't want to tire Cuizhi out, so he took the bowl of medicine and started drinking it.

Cuizhi actually had no idea what was going on at the moment, but after all, she had grown up in the back house and didn't understand many things.

Besides, Ping An's health had not yet fully recovered, and she did not want to casually tell him about her concerns and affect his recovery.

So she had to comfort him against her will, "It's really getting late, but the master and his friends brought enough people with them when they went out, and everything was as planned. I guess they haven't finished dealing with some things yet, so they haven't come back yet."

Ping'an drank the medicine in one gulp and then handed the empty bowl to Cuizhi.

"I hope so," Ping An said with a guilty tone and expression, "If I hadn't failed to protect the master, not only did the master become blind, but I was also injured and lying in bed, I would definitely swear to protect the master until my death, and I wouldn't be worried like I am now, but it's useless."

Cuizhi noticed that Ping'an was not right and comforted him, "Don't say that. You were seriously injured and almost didn't survive. The master and the young lady don't blame you. Don't blame yourself anymore. When the master and the young lady come back, you should take good care of yourself. You will be loyal to them in the future."

"Well, thank you Cuizhi."

Ping'an looked at Cuizhi with gratitude.

Even if she only said a few simple words, it could calm his restless heart.

He plucked up his courage and looked at Cuizhi.

Cuizhi was holding the medicine bowl and was frightened when he looked at her like that.

She stood up hurriedly: "Since you have finished the medicine, I will leave first. You have a good rest. I will come to bring you medicine and food in the evening."

After saying that, she was about to leave.

Ping An called out to her when she turned around: "Cuizhi."

Cuizhi stopped and looked back at him.

Ping An licked his lips and said, "I, I want to tell you that I can eat and take medicine by myself at night, so I won't bother you to bring it to me. The medicine is very hot when it is just scooped out, and I don't want to burn your hands again."

Unexpectedly, Cuizhi only smiled and said after hearing this: "This little bit of perm is nothing to me. Don't forget, I am also a servant of an official family. I have done all kinds of work."

In fact, if they were maids in ordinary families, they would not be asked to do any heavy or tiring work.

But Wen Baizhi is different.

After her biological mother died, her father ignored her and only cared about his sister.

Therefore, the servants in the Wen Mansion also acted according to their master's preferences.

Everyone is very good at flattering the powerful and looking down on the weak.

So although Cuizhi was the head maid in Wen Baizhi's room, she was the only maid who always served Wen Baizhi.

Most of the dirty and tiring work is done by the green branches.

Ping An naturally thought of this as well.

After all, when Wen Baizhi married into the Governor's Mansion, he also helped Si Jiu to investigate a lot of things about Wen Baizhi, both openly and secretly.

This naturally includes Wen Baizhi's personal maid Cuizhi.

"I'm sorry Cuizhi, I didn't mean to mention these things and make you think of bad things again."

Ping An apologized.

When it comes to the first and probably only time he has a crush on a girl, he always hates himself for being clumsy and unable to speak.

Cuizhi said indifferently: "What is there to apologize for? No matter how sad those things were, they are all in the past. Now my lady and I are living a good life."

Yes, even Cuizhi knew that the young lady who had accompanied her through hard times in the Wen Mansion was no longer there.

But she is still very grateful to the lady at that time.

She will also miss Miss Wen forever.

"Just take a good rest. I'm leaving first."

Cuizhi really left this time.

When she went out, she carefully closed the door of Ping'an's room, then took the empty medicine bowl and went to find Rong Heng.

The place where Rong Heng boiled medicine was in the open area outside the inn's kitchen.

So every time Cuizhi cooked in the kitchen, she would always run into Rong Heng who was also boiling and drying medicinal herbs outside the window.

When Rong Heng is concentrating on doing his own things, he is always silent and dedicated.

Cuizhi didn't disturb him, but just quietly did her own thing in the kitchen, occasionally looking up at where Rong Heng was standing.

Whenever she saw Rong Heng standing there, even if they didn't have any eye contact or talk, Cuizhi would still feel very calm.

Maybe this is love?

Cuizhi doesn’t know either.

But I just feel comfortable in my heart, and I just want to stay quietly by his side.

In contrast to Cuizhi's peaceful state of mind at this moment was Wen Baizhi's.

After throwing Qi He off the cliff, Qi Yan'an grabbed Wen Baizhi's wrist roughly and dragged her towards the carriage array on the mountainside regardless of the consequences.

When Wen Baizhi was grabbed by Qi Yan'an's wrist, she instinctively resisted: "Qi Yan'an, let me go, what are you doing, let me go you lunatic."

Si Jiu was originally curled up on the ground helplessly, but when he heard Wen Baizhi's voice, he became visibly excited.

He struggled to get up and go towards Wen Baizhi.

But he couldn't see and he didn't have the strength.

The wounds on both shoulders are still bleeding.

He looked extremely pale and weak.

But he still tried his best to find Wen Baizhi.

He couldn't walk, so he put his hands on the ground and walked forward on his knees.

"Baibai, Baibai..." Si Jiu let out a weak cry.

Qi Yanan hadn't noticed that there was a Si Jiu here at first.

After all, Si Jiu is just a waste in his heart now.

But he was already annoyed because he was holding Wen Baizhi who was uncooperative, but he couldn't get angry at Wen Baizhi.

It was Si Jiu himself who insisted on reappearing in his sight.

He stopped, but did not let go of Wen Baizhi's wrist.

Qi Yan'an raised his eyes sarcastically in the direction where Si Jiu was kneeling, and motioned Wen Baizhi to also look at Si Jiu's miserable appearance.

"Look at him, look at your incompetent husband," Qi Yan'an said with disdain and ridicule, "Look at him, so skinny and weak, and a useless eunuch. What's the point of following him? Look at him."

Wen Baizhi was determined not to look back. Qi Yan'an was so angry that he broke her head and forced her to look at Si Jiu kneeling on the ground.

Wen Baizhi's eyes didn't show any dissatisfaction towards Si Jiu. She just spoke calmly to Qi Yan'an.

"Qi Yanan, you are envious of Si Jiu, right? You are such an inferior, cowardly and incompetent person!"
