She asked Lou Xiliu to sit down quickly, bake his cloak, feet, and eat.
"Eat quickly. You have to eat even if you are not hungry. There will be so many people here, and you won't be able to get anything to eat. Change your shoes quickly. Eunuch Lou is a loyal and hard-working man. He has a bright future. Let's just focus on the present."
"I'm fine, I-"
"If you get cold, you'll pass it on to me. I'm so weak!"
"...Oh." Lou Xiliu sat by the stove, changed into warm shoes, and ate the big meat pie given by Sister Hong. Cao Xiwan looked at Xiliu.
"What's wrong?" Lou Xiliu asked.
"You are not as cute as before. You used to scold me and quarrel with me."
"..." She wanted to beat this guy to death. Lou Xiliu stared angrily.
"Eat quickly, eat quickly." She smiled. She also took a bite and looked at Xiliu Lou, assessing Xiliu's appetite. Cao Xiwan felt that it would be best for her to let Xiliu come to Hui Ci's door and let her eat Hui Ci.
It only takes three years to raise thin willows.
Xiliu is too strong. As long as his wings are hardened, he will leave on his own.
She is just a stepping stone for Lou Xiliu!
She sighed quietly.
"……what happened again?"
"Good birds choose trees to roost in. I understand."
"..." Xiliu endured it, thinking: No, I can't beat her. Otherwise, I won't even be able to eat the meat cakes.
In the past three years, Xiliu had to work hard for her as a thug and a coolie. She settled the accounts with satisfaction and felt that raising Lou Xiliu was not a loss.
Sister Hong was urging her in another room, and Cao Xiwan quickly wrapped herself in a warm black bear skin cloak, freeing up the space to bake something else.
She also finished a meat pie and touched her heart, feeling that she had been completely deceived by Liu Ruhai. She might not be able to get sick in this midwinter weather.
"Xiliu, Xiliu, help me tie a hat."
Lou Xiliu wiped her hands and stepped forward, helped her put on the bearskin hood, tied it tightly with a bearskin scarf, and wrapped her up like a bear, with only two eyes exposed.
Xiliu couldn't help but laugh. Not to mention, her legs were tied with a layer of bearskin leggings.
"Why are you wrapped up like this-?"
"I have to keep it." In fact, every winter, in order to avenge the two fish clan, she always looks like a black bear that has become a spirit. She is used to it.
But this winter, because she was warned by Liu Ruhai, she took extra care of it.
She held a flat copper stove in her arms, huffing and puffing, and ran to the back room: "I'll go to the back and take a look. Find the imperial doctor." Then she turned back and winked at Xiliu, as if she was confident, "Don't worry, this is
It's all about me."
Lou Xiliu forced out a smile, she really didn't know how this guy was going to deceive something from Gray Thorn.
She didn't even dare to think about it herself.
She was only surprised that Cao Xiwan was so flexible even though he was dressed in such bulky clothes. It looked like he often wore bearskin as a thief in winter.
"Miss Lou——"
"Here we come." When Lou Xiliu heard Sister Hong calling, she seemed to have something to do, so she turned around.
Cao Xiwan seemed to hear someone coming on the official road in front of him. It should be a passing eunuch or a palace guard. Naturally, Eunuch Lou went to send him away.
Moreover, she knew that Gu Yongxiu would also pass by.
He is the censor of the city patrol, and like the Jinyi Guards and the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division, he has to patrol this official road for sending souls.
Gu Yongxiu and several colleagues rode their horses down the official road and looked for the black tiled roofs in the heavy snow to come and rest. They saw a green carriage, which crookedly got off the official road and headed towards the woods.
The person escorting the car was none other than Song Weiren, who was giving him the apprenticeship salute.
"What's wrong?" Gu Yushi asked concernedly.
"My third aunt is not feeling well and had a fetal infection on the way."
Gu Yushi was surprised. Song Weiren had always known that this Master Gu was from a family of imperial doctors and had a strong family background. He had practiced hard like all the Gu family children since he was a child. However, he later found it boring and unwilling to learn.
Sure enough, Gu Yushi turned over and dismounted, rubbed his fingers and said, "Let me explore."
"Thank you Master Gu."
Gu Yushi reached into the car curtain, and Mother Chen quickly asked his wife's hand in the car.
He stood outside the car curtain, his eyebrows filled with powdered snow. He took his pulse and said, "I'm cold. Go to the front. There is a small temple. My nephew Gu San is over there. He can handle it."
Song Weiren was overjoyed. Was the imperial doctor invited by Miss Cao actually the third son of Gu Yuanjian?
This thought is correct, Miss Cao is ill, and the people she associates with are all famous doctors.
Cao Xiwan didn't care if he was a famous doctor or not. What she cared about was Mr. Gu. His surname was Gu.
After arriving behind the house, looking at the vast snowy wilderness, she saw two horses approaching slowly. On the horse was the young doctor Gu.
Mr. Gu was wearing a thick black and gray mink fur cloak, and the figure riding beside him was Liu Ruhai in white fox fur.
Hey, Liu Ruhai is here too, she thought.
Between heaven and earth, the black and white people are quite eye-catching.
With her sharp eyesight, she saw a straw basket hanging on the side of their saddles.
"Here, here - come back quickly! Don't get lost!" she shouted.
You actually have time to dig out medicine, right? She secretly complained.
It's freezing cold today, and the herbs are all frozen to death, okay?
Liu Ruhai saw her waiting by the door and galloped closer first. When he dismounted, he noticed that she had a look on her face that said you are really ignorant and worrying.
"You won't get sick this winter." He smiled.
"What if?" she said solemnly. Seeing Mr. Gu San for dozens of miles along the way was killing three birds with one stone. At least there would be a doctor to save her when she fell ill.
Not to mention, Dr. Gu's surname was Gu, and he was not on duty this month. She had already booked him with money and threatened him.
"Mr. Gu, here -"
Eunuch Lou heard her yelling and came out to see her. He was very happy. Of course he recognized one of them as the son of Judge Gu. The other was also Dr. Liu, a famous doctor in the capital.
Eunuch Lou quickly said: "Mrs. Lou in the Hou Mansion, she just entered the house, maybe it was too cold and her fetal air was moved."
She was startled, thinking that if Lou Shuluan's pregnancy was safe, and if Xiliu didn't want to be a concubine, she would just let it go.
She quickly asked Mr. Gu to take a look: "Is it cold? Warm your hands first. Don't let them freeze."
She kept courting Mr. Gu, but Liu Ruhai, who was watching with cold eyes, saw the problem and quietly gave her a hand.
"What are you doing? I'm busy." She turned around and saw that there was a third rider.
Just now, there was another thin gray horse following Mr. Gu, and a gray figure jumped down, his face revealed as soon as the hood was revealed.
——It’s actually a gray thorn.
She could hardly believe her eyes.
what happened!?
Gray Thorn, you are in Prince Zhou's Mansion, and you are the third group of people to set off. According to the regulations, you should only pass by in the evening, why are you here now?
Liu Ruhai was equally surprised because he heard Eunuch Lou saying to Mr. Gu as he entered: "Gu Yushi from your residence is also here."
Gu Yushi entered from the front door, and Hui Ci entered from the back room.
Liu Ruhai couldn't help but glance at her with a smile, secretly admiring her cunningness. Was this arranged by her? She should be familiar with Gu Yushi already?
Cao Xiwan thought about whether he should abandon Xiliu and escape by himself.
