Meng Lan stared at Ye Jinsu in a daze, not knowing what to say.
So this was what the young mistress was after …
It was getting harder to guess the thoughts of the young miss. As Meng Lan thought of this, she looked at Ye Jinsu who had an indifferent expression. She suddenly felt that the expression on her face when she spoke just now resembled Ning Wang.
Realizing what she was thinking, Meng Lan quickly lowered her head.
Ye Jinsu didn't know that Meng Lan was thinking this much. She got up and pulled Meng Lan up, "Get up. I will take care of this matter. You just take care of my face."
Meng Lan nodded heavily.
Ye Jinsu lifted her legs and sat by the window. The bed was too soft, and her bones ached from lying on it for too long. She picked up the mirror beside her, looked at the wound wrapped in gauze on her face, and asked, "Tell me, how much certainty do I have in being able to completely heal my face?"
Meng Lan lowered her head and said with shame, "This servant is not talented. I only have fifty percent."
After saying that, Meng Lan quickly raised her head to look at Ye Jinsu, trying to discern something from her face. However, her expression remained the same. She put down the mirror and asked, "What do you mean?"
Meng Lan then replied, "The Miss's wound was not very deep, but it was torn. The wound was split open, and she lost a lot of blood."
"With this servant's current level and current level of medicinal ingredients, I can only reach this level of certainty."
As she said this, Meng Lan felt ashamed.
She had used up all the medicine that she had left behind at the time when Ye Jinsu's neck was injured. That was a medicine concocted by the imperial physician. She had been unable to concoct a few more. The medicinal effects were greatly weakened.
After thinking about it, Meng Lan felt vexed. If she had been more adept at medicine, she might have been able to come up with a similar medicine.
Ye Jinsu sighed, "Forget it, it's fine."
"Tomorrow, you go out and find Dr. Tian. He practices medicine in a lot of places, so he might have some knowledge of other things. You guys can discuss it with him, but there might be other solutions." Ye Jinsu said.
Meng Lan nodded, turned around and left.
Ye Jinxiu turned around and called for Little Red.
Xiao Hong looked at Meng Lan with reddened eyes as she walked in and out. It seemed as if she was much more energetic now. Xiao Hong didn't know what Ye Jinsu said to her, but it thought that she had a way to treat her wounds.
However, it was obvious that Ye Jinsu did it for something else.
"A few days ago, I asked you to pay attention to which people in the courtyard are available. Have you found anyone that can be relied on?" Ye Jinsu held the honey water and asked Lil 'Red.
Xiao Hong frowned for a moment. Her entire mind was focused on Ye Jinsu's injuries, and it took her awhile to think things over, "A maidservant should say that there is an older person who had done this in another family before. He is quite quick-witted, and is also diligent in his work."
"There's a thick-skinned and honest looking servant here. He's not a bad person."
"Miss, are you going to use them?" Xiao Hong asked curiously.
Ye Jinsu nodded, "Tell them to come in, I have something to talk to them about."
Although Xiao Hong was puzzled, she still called two people over. The maidservant was a tall and slender girl. She looked to be several years older than Ye Jin Su and was quite delicate and pretty. The moment she entered, her eyes began to roll around the room.
The manservant became more sincere and did not dare to look more closely. He kept his head lowered and walked with his back hunched, staring at the square inch of ground on the tip of his feet.
Ye Jinsu didn't say anything and just stared at them for a while.
The room was silent. Ye Jinsu didn't speak, so they didn't dare to speak. The maidservant did not dare to look any further. She became slightly nervous and became more obedient.
Ye Jinsu then asked, "What are your names?"
"Servant Chun Hua."
"Servant Tian Liu."
Ye JinSu nodded and looked at the two of them, "Xiao Hong, tell me, the two of you usually work quite well. I'm thinking of whether or not I should bring you two along."
Chun Hua's eyes, which were initially a little nervous, instantly lit up. The corner of his mouth slightly curled up, revealing his excitement. However, he didn't dare to be too rude. Chun Hua bent down and said, "This is all my responsibility. I wouldn't dare."
The other one also repeated: "I don't dare, I don't dare."
It was just some small talk, but Ye Jinsu didn't take it to heart. She looked at the two of them and said, "Lift up your heads and let me take a look."
The two of them raised their heads at the same time.
Spring Flower was still alright. Tian Six really did not look that great. His face was full of wrinkles, but his eyes were quite honest.
Ye Jinsu looked at the two of them and suddenly curled her lips.
"Since Xiao Hong said that the two of you are reliable people, then I have something that I need you two to do."
"Miss, feel free to instruct me." Chunhua lowered his head again.
"You should know that there are a lot of rumors going around, right?" Ye Jinsu asked.
This was a sensitive topic. The two couldn't guess whether Ye Jinxiu was happy or angry. They didn't know how to answer, so they could only give a light nod of their heads.
Ye Jinsu wasn't surprised by their reactions and asked, "Do you think that's true?"
Who could say that was true? The two of them were afraid that they would say something wrong, so they kowtowed again, "Those are all fabricated things by the people outside. Miss is from a famous clan, how could they be people like that?"
"Since that's the case, you can go and find out who the rumors are." Ye Jinsu said.
"?"
The two of them were stunned as they raised their heads to look at Ye Jinsu.
"This …" Chun Hua finally realized that the little miss had handed over the important matter to them. However, how could she afford it? If she did anything wrong, it might not be a big matter.
"Servant, this servant only knows how to do rough work, I'm afraid I can't do it well …"
"No matter, I can point you a clear path." Ye Jinsu looked at them and said. She took out a bag of crushed silver from the drawer beside her, weighed it a few times, and then put it on her table.
"Both of you, go to the teahouse at the street and have some tea. After drinking for a day, ask around to find out who has been talking about this these past few days."
"Just tell me about him."
Ye Jinsu tapped her fingertips on the bag of money and opened it. She took out some crushed silver and placed it on the table. "This is for your tea."
"The matter is settled," Ye Jinsu paused for a moment, then poured out all the money in her purse, "The rest of the money is all given to you."
As expected, upon seeing the money, Chun Hua and Tian Liu's eyes instantly lit up. No one disliked silver. And it was even so much silver, enough for them to use for two years.
Their nervous expressions relaxed, and what remained was greed as they looked at the silver taels.
However, Ye Jinsu picked up a handkerchief and covered all the silver on the table, and said, "But if you can't do it properly, my yard doesn't need a cripple, do you think Little Red?"
Xiao Hong replied from the side with tacit understanding, "Yes, Miss."
The two of them were struck by his words and instantly exited the silver world. Ye Jinsu's words made it clear that the two of them had to settle this matter well.
Otherwise, where else could he go after leaving this courtyard?
"This servant will do my best." The two of them spoke at the same time.
