The Virtuous Wife

Chapter 3 Sisterly Love

Mrs. Bai said, "Is Yiyi awake? It's good that she's awake. It's worth everyone's worry. Don't climb so high in the future. What if you get hurt?"

The room was silent. Mrs. Bai didn't know what was going on. She didn't say anything wrong. She secretly glanced at the old lady and saw that the old lady glared at her. She couldn't help but feel a little nervous. Could it be that they knew something?

Su Wei was about to question Mrs. Bai when he felt his clothes tighten. He looked down and saw that it was Yiyi who was pulling his clothes.

Jingyi said weakly, "Daddy, I have a headache!"

Su Wei heard this and hurriedly put her down on the bed and shouted to the outside, "Who invited the imperial physician? Why hasn't he come yet?" The old marquis slowly said, "It's getting late today, so it may be inconvenient. Don't worry! Yiyi, is your head still hurting now that you're lying like this?"

Jingyi looked at the old marquis, "Grandpa, don't worry, Yiyi is much better." After that, she looked at Su Wei, "Daddy, don't worry! Maybe you just sat for too long, so you have a headache. You'll be fine after lying down for a while."

Seeing that his granddaughter was so sensible, the old marquis nodded and felt very relieved!

Su Wei sat by the bed, looked at his daughter's pale face and asked, "Is Yiyi hungry? Do you want to eat something?"

Nanny He beside him said hurriedly, "I have already asked the kitchen to make bird's nest porridge, it should be almost ready. I'll go and take a look."

The old marquis said again, "Why didn't the second young master come? Doesn't he know that Yiyi has woken up?"

Liu Xing replied, "Reply to the old master. As soon as the young lady woke up, I went to tell the second young master. On the way here, the second young master met the housekeeper who said that he was ordered by the marquis to invite the imperial physician. The second young master said that it was late and he was afraid of being delayed on the road for a long time, so he went to invite him in person."

The old marquis nodded, yes. This child is careful and knows how to care for his sister. If he goes to invite him in person, the imperial physician will definitely come, and it will come faster than the servants.

At this moment, someone lifted the curtain and entered the room. It was the second young master Su Ming and the imperial physician Liu from the Imperial Hospital. Su Wei got up and asked the imperial physician for treatment.

The imperial physician felt Jingyi's pulse and the injury, and said that there was nothing wrong with her. He changed the medicine for Jingyi himself. Mrs. Bai couldn't help asking, "Doctor Liu, will there be a scar on Yiyi's head?"

Doctor Liu looked at her and said, "Don't worry, Aunt Bai, the second young lady is fine. I will prepare some ointment for the second young lady. After the wound scabs, apply it to the scar every day. It will disappear within a month."

Mrs. Bai was a little disappointed, but she smiled and said, "In this case, thank you, Doctor Liu."

But now, Su Wei and the old Houye heard this, which made them feel a little uncomfortable. They both glanced at Mrs. Bai and said nothing.

Mrs. Bai met their gaze, smiled awkwardly, and dared not say anything more.

The imperial physician prescribed another prescription, gave some instructions, and then got up to say goodbye. Not long after, the kitchen also sent bird's nest porridge. Su Wei fed Jingyi noodles with his own hands before returning to the front yard. The others also went back to the yard, leaving Jingyi to have a good rest.

Since that day, Su Wei accompanied Jingyi for dinner every day. Then, he fed her medicine by hand. After about ten days, the gauze on Jingyi's head had been removed. She applied the ointment given by Doctor Liu every day. Although the scar had not yet disappeared, it had improved significantly compared to when the gauze was just removed.

What surprised Su Jing the most was that once, she accidentally stood at the window to look at the lotus outside, and she actually heard the little sparrow talking to her! Communicating with animals was her innate ability in her previous life! How could it also be in this little girl's body? Could it be that it stayed in this body with her travel?

After Su Jing really couldn't figure it out, she stopped bothering. Instead, she used this talent to learn about her situation in this mansion.

It turned out that this was the Pingnan Marquis Mansion, and her father's name was Su Wei. Her full name was Su Jingyi, and she was seven years old this year. There are two brothers, the eldest brother Su Qing, who lives in the grandfather's house for a long time and practices martial arts with his uncle; the second brother Su Ming, whom I have already met; and a half-brother Su Qian and a half-sister Su Jingwei, who are twins, born to his father's concubine Bai.

After understanding his family background and living environment, Su Jing felt truly at ease. Since he was here, he should make the best of it, not to mention that there is the family affection he has been looking forward to for a long time? From now on, he will be Su Jingyi!

Every day, Su Jingyi reads books, sleeps, quarrels with his second brother, plays chess, and occasionally basks in the sun in his yard. This life is quite comfortable.

On this day, Su Jingyi was leaning on the couch in the side hall to read a book. When she was reading the exciting part, she heard footsteps coming from outside. Su Jingyi ignored it and continued to read with her head down.

It turned out that Su Jingwei was here. This Su Jingwei is nine years old this year, and has already grown into a little beauty.

Su Jingyi looked up and saw that it was her, but she didn't get up. She just asked, "Why are you so free today and come to my place?"

Su Jingyi smiled slightly, her small eyes curved like crescents, but she had a unique style. She sat on an embroidered stool, took out an embroidered handkerchief, and wiped her forehead: "Sister, come and see how your sister has been these days? It seems that your sister is in good spirits. Why don't you want to go out for a walk?"

Su Jingyi smiled slightly: "The wound on my head has not healed yet. Doctor Liu said that it is not suitable to be exposed to the wind, so it is better not to go out."

Su Jingyi covered her lips and chuckled: "Sister is really careful. It's sunny outside today, and we are not going outside. We are just walking in our own yard. What are you afraid of?"

Su Jingyi still didn't get up, but smiled and said, "Sister, go, I'm really inconvenient." After that, she looked at her with a chuckle. Su Jingwei's heart was shocked. Why is this look so weird?

Su Jingwei turned away and didn't look at her. Such a look was too sharp, even three points stronger than her mother's.

Su Jingwei turned away and saw a few gold hairpins on the long table. She couldn't help but moved her heart and walked forward to look at them carefully. These gold hairpins were exquisitely shaped and finely made. They must have been made by famous artists.

Su Jingwei said without thinking: "These gold hairpins are good. Sister, can you borrow them for a few days?" As she said that, she picked up the gold hairpins, tried them on her head, and took a mirror to look at them.

Liu Xing wanted to step forward to stop her, but was stopped by Jingyi's eyes.

Jingyi said softly: "It's just a few objects. If you like it, take it and wear it."

Su Jingwei listened, her face full of smiles: "Sister is so generous! After all, we are sisters, so we are different from outsiders!" As she said that, she compared them in the mirror again.

Jingyi stood up and walked to Su Jingwei's side: "Sister is born with a beautiful face. In fact, any jewelry you wear is just a foil for your sister." Su Jingwei looked at Jingyi with a smile, and always felt that something was wrong with her, but she couldn't put her finger on it. In the past, Su Jingyi would not praise herself like this. Jingyi looked at her clothes and asked in confusion: "What are you looking at, sister? But what's wrong with me?" Su Jingwei smiled and said: "No, no. My sister is the one who is beautiful." Jingyi rolled her eyes at her and chuckled: "Okay, don't make fun of my sister. I'm only seven years old this year, how can I be described as beautiful?" After that, the two sisters couldn't help but chuckle.
