Seeing that they had arrived at the injured person's home, they ignored the red tape and rushed in two steps at a time.
Madam Hou wanted to follow closely, but she saw Luo Shuiyao here. She had to stop and asked with concern: "Yaoyao, why don't you take a good rest? What are you doing here?"
She glanced at Ye Yunzhou again, "You too, why don't you persuade your sister to go back and rest?"
Ye Yunzhou looked at Madam Hou and said expressionlessly, "It was so noisy that I couldn't sleep."
The Marquis's breath stagnated, and she said angrily, "What nonsense are you talking about, kid?"
Seeing this, Luo Shuiyao hurried over to smooth things over, "Aunt, let's go in and take a look. I don't know how Sister Zhao is doing now."
When the Marquis's wife heard that she cared so much about Lu Zhaozhao, she nodded with satisfaction and ignored her eldest son who spoke unpleasantly.
She took her hand and walked forward, saying, "Auntie knew you were a good child."
Luo Shuiyao pretended to be shy and lowered her head, letting the Marquis's wife lead her away, but the corners of her lips curled up slightly, almost unnoticeably: I have never been a good child. I have always held grudges and I always repay injustice with injustice. I will never suffer any loss.
Ye Yunzhou did not follow her in. He just watched her walk in affectionately with her mother, without thinking of him at all. He felt inexplicably depressed.
After feeling depressed, he thought that he wouldn't be able to sleep if he went back now, so he might as well wait here for them to come out.
When Luo Shuiyao and Madam Hou were about to reach the door of the main house, they heard a scream from inside.
Madam Hou's heart tightened, she let go of Luo Shuiyao's hand and rushed in first. Lu Zhaozhao raised her hands, covered her face and screamed.
Dr. Hua was startled by her cry and stood there at a loss for what to do. He came in to see how the girl was doing, but she started screaming at the sight of him. He didn't dare to go forward, fearing that at his age, he would be known as a man of low integrity.
Seeing this, Madam Hou quickly tried to comfort him: "What's wrong, Zhao Zhao? Put your hand down and let Doctor Hua take a look at you."
When Lu Zhaozhao heard the voice of the Marquis' wife, she slowly lowered her hands from covering her face. The Marquis' wife couldn't help but gasp. Her entire face was red and swollen, her eyes were narrowed into slits, and her mouth was swollen and crooked. She looked extremely scary.
But when she saw the Marquis's wife coming, she rushed forward and threw herself into her arms, tears streaming down her eyes. Her face was swollen, making her look even more hideous.
The Marquis's wife stiffened, resisting the urge to push her away, and stiffly comforted her: "Zhao Zhao, come, let go of your aunt first and let the doctor take a look at you."
Lu Zhaozhao raised her head and looked at the Marquis' wife with grievance. "Aunt, I won't be disfigured, will I?" Her words were unclear due to the swelling on her face.
If she were okay, the Marquis' wife would have been extremely distressed. But now, looking at her horrified face, the Marquis' wife couldn't hold back a single expression of distress.
She had lived a life of luxury and comfort, and had never seen anyone with such a terrifying appearance. The fact that he resisted pushing her away was a testament to his love for her.
Seeing that the Marquis' wife remained silent, Lu Zhaozhao felt that her performance wasn't good enough, and immediately acted even more aggrieved. Her face was swollen and her features were distorted, and the Marquis' wife almost fainted.
She couldn't hold it in any longer, so she turned away and shouted to Doctor Hua, "Doctor Hua, come and take a look at her."
Luo Shuiyao stood at the door, watching this scene and almost dying of laughter. She lowered her head, bit her lip, and tried hard to hold back her laughter. Her shoulders twitched, and the other servants who didn't understand what was going on thought she was crying sadly, and secretly praised her in their hearts.
The young lady had framed this cousin from Luo many times, but now she had let bygones be bygones and was crying so sadly when she saw the young lady was sick.
Only Aunt Zhang and Chun Xing, who were following her, looked at the young lady's shaking shoulders and probably knew what she was doing.
Chun Xing was also nearby, scratching the back of her hand with her hands, nearly tearing the skin. Even the usually composed Nanny Zhang couldn't help but twitch at the Hou Furen's horrified look. She had to think through all the heartbreaks in her life before she could control her facial expression.
Doctor Hua was accustomed to such situations. He had been treating patients and saving lives all his life, so what kind of people had he not seen? "Young lady, please sit down first. I will go and take a look."
It wasn't like Lu Zhaozhao wasn't anxious to see a doctor; she wanted him to see her as soon as possible more than anyone else. But even more than seeing a doctor, she wanted to act like a spoiled brat in front of the Marquis' wife, hoping to get her to feel sorry for her and see if she could be released from confinement as soon as possible.
She hadn't expected the Marquis' wife to treat her this way. She naturally didn't miss the flash of fear in the Marquis's eyes. She couldn't help but curse inwardly: "My mother treated you so well, and you really didn't deserve her sincerity and love for you."
She had wronged the Marquis's wife. Naturally, the Marquis's wife felt sorry for her, but her appearance at the moment was too scary. I believe that few people could face such a face and remain calm and look sympathetic.
Lu Zhaozhao no longer resisted. She obediently sat back down and let Doctor Hua examine her. Doctor Hua took her pulse and observed her carefully for a long while, then asked her in detail about what she had eaten and used that day. Nanny Chu came up and answered her questions one by one.
Doctor Hua pondered for a moment. There was nothing wrong with the food, but why was it so? He carefully felt her pulse again.
He then spoke carefully, "This situation has indeed occurred before. I encountered a patient with the same condition a few years ago, but that patient's condition was much more serious than yours. When I visited him, his pulse was extremely weak. It was due to the swelling all over his body that made it difficult to breathe in his throat, leading to respiratory failure."
He pondered for a moment and continued, "Your condition is much milder. Although it looks scary, it's actually not serious. You must have accidentally gotten something contaminated somewhere, perhaps... a poisonous insect bite."
"But it's okay. I'll write a prescription. Please send someone to prepare the medicine as soon as possible. If you take the medicine on time, you will be cured in a month at most."
"Remember not to scratch, so as not to break the skin. A little girl must not damage her skin." Doctor Hua said this to Mrs. Hou.
The Marquis's wife nodded and instructed Nanny Chu: "Send someone quickly. Remember what the doctor said. If a girl's face is disfigured, it will be a big deal."
Nanny Chu responded repeatedly, "Yes, I will definitely keep it in mind."
While they were talking, Doctor Hua had already picked up his pen and quickly took out a prescription from his medicine box and began to write it down. In just half an incense stick of time, he had finished writing it and handed it to the medicine boy beside him, who then walked out with the medicine box.
Upon seeing this, Nanny Chu hurriedly followed him out and arranged for the maids and servants.
