"Your Second Uncle should be in the Southern Courtyard's garden now. Follow me closely and don't lose his by any means. At this time, there should not be a master in the small garden of the south yard. If you see his master, just keep your head down and don't speak carelessly. "
Xia Dacheng explained the things that he needed to pay attention to to Xia Yi.
Xia Yi wrote them down one by one.
With their head lowered, they followed Xia Dacheng. Along the way, they did not meet anyone, only a few rough maids, who greeted happily when they saw Xia Dacheng. No one asked him where he came from.
After passing through a small arch, they arrived at the southern courtyard.
Just as he arrived at the southern courtyard, Xia Dacheng suddenly stopped in his tracks, and asked softly. "Why is First Madame here?"
Xia Yi raised her head and looked towards the direction where Xia Dacheng was looking, and saw a lot of people in the pavilion.
In the middle of the room sat a middle-aged lady. She was dressed in luxurious clothing and in her arms was a baby that was about one or two years old.
A few maidservants stood around the table. Some of the maidservants were holding something like a rattle drum in their hands, while others were holding food in their hands.
Xia Dacheng turned around and said to Xia Yi: "Stand here and wait, don't run around, I'll go call your Second Uncle over for you."
"Don't worry, Uncle Cheng." Xia Yi took the initiative to lean closer to the wall.
Xia Dacheng nodded in relief, and quickly disappeared from Xia Yi's sight.
Xia Yi stood where she was, bored out of her mind, and her gaze involuntarily drifted towards the small pavilion.
The originally peaceful and quiet little pavilion suddenly became chaotic on one side.
"Get a doctor!"
"Bring the water!"
The distance was not too far, so Xia Yi could clearly hear what the Madame Kang was shouting about.
Only now did Xia Yi see that the child in Madame Kang's arms had already turned purple.
Combined with Madame Kang's reaction, Xia Yi could immediately tell that the child in her arms was choking.
Xia Yi knew clearly that in this kind of situation, the worst thing that could happen to him was to pour the water.
Seeing that the servant had already brought the water, Xia Yi did not have much time to think, and quickly ran towards the pavilion.
"First Madame, the water is here."
When Xia Yi just arrived at the pavilion, the servant had already passed the water to the Madame Kang.
Madame Kang was about to take it when she saw her water cup being knocked over.
A new face appeared in front of him.
"What are you waiting for? Hurry up and bring me another glass of water." Seeing the child in his arms become weaker and weaker, Madame Kang ignored Xia Yi and scolded the servant who was already frightened by the scene in front of her.
Xia Yi immediately replied: "Madam, please do not, right now if you pour water on me, it might cause the food in my throat to choke even more, and could endanger my life. I have a method to save her, I hope Madam can let me try it."
Xia Yi spoke extremely quickly, and before Madame Kang could even respond, the child in his hands had already landed in Xia Yi's hands.
Xia Yi quickly flipped the baby over, and laid it face-first on her left arm. Her left hand moved forward to pinch the child's cheekbones, and her other hand gently pulled the child's back.
After knocking a few times, he turned the child over and used his hand to gently press down on the child's chest.
Madame Kang's gaze had been following Xia Yi's actions the entire time. Looking at Xia Yi's serious and gentle actions, she was certain that Xia Yi really wanted to save his grandson.
Until the servant girl whispered in her ear, "First Madame, the water is here."
Madame Kang frowned: "Put it there first."
Just as he finished speaking, the child coughed and spat out a small piece of cake.
Then the child began to cough violently and began to cry loudly.
Xia Yi heaved a sigh of relief and returned the child to Madame Kang.
With a wronged expression, he lowered his head and said, "It was my presumptuous gesture just now, I hope that Madame Kang will forgive me."
Madame Kang immediately extended her hand to help Xia Yi up, and said: "Thank you for what you just said."
Xia Yi lowered her head to look at the pastries on the ground, wanting to say something but stopped herself from doing so.
Madame Kang took the initiative to ask: "Does Miss still have anything else to say?"
Xia Yi then said: "The child is still young, it's best not to eat this kind of sticky pastry, it's easy to get stuck in your throat. Also, it's best not to give them the corn and peanut rice …"
Madame Kang was startled, she had thought that Xia Yi would take the chance to ask for some request or reward, but she did not expect Xia Yi to say all these.
"You have nothing else to say?"
Xia Yi blessed her body again, "Just now, I charged into First Madame in a hurry, I hope First Madame does not blame me too much."
"It's fine." Madame Kang said, "Please take a seat Miss."
Xia Yi said: "Thank you, Madame Kang, for your love, I was originally waiting for someone in the courtyard, but now that the child is fine, I will not disturb you anymore."
On the other side, Xia Dacheng had found Xia Erfu and returned to the place where he was previously at, but he could not find any trace of Xia Yi.
When he raised his head, he saw Xia Yi appearing in the pavilion and talking to Madame Kang.
Xia Dacheng turned and said to Xia Erfu: "Your niece is going to kill us all here."
"Brother Cheng, don't be in such a hurry. I'll bring her back right now. It won't affect you at all." Xia Erfu immediately replied.
After saying that, Xia Erfu quickly walked towards the pavilion, and as soon as he arrived, he kneeled down: "First Madame, I am the gardener Xia Erfu, and this is my niece Xia Yi. This is the first time she has come to the house, and she doesn't understand the rules of the house.
Xia Erfu reached out and lightly pulled the hem of Xia Yi's clothes, gesturing for him to kneel down and beg for forgiveness.
Madame Kang laughed: "Quickly get up, don't kneel, you have misunderstood me. I really like Xia Yi and want to invite her to lunch with me.
Xia Erfu was stunned at first, but then immediately nodded, "I'm willing, of course I'm willing."
Xia Erfu slowly stood up and rubbed his palms together, then said to Xia Yi: "Hurry and thank First Madame."
Xia Yi said, "I appreciate First Madame's good intentions, but I am here to look for you, so it is inconvenient for me to accept your invitation.
Xia Erfu was shocked by Xia Yi's words and said softly, "Xia Yi …"
Madame Kang waved her hand and said indifferently: "It's alright, we'll talk about it when we have time in the future."
After thousand thanks, Xia Erfu left with Xia Yi.
Madame Kang, on the other hand, looked towards the direction Xia Yi left in and smiled. She felt that this little girl was very interesting.
Many people were eager to get into a relationship with her. Yet, this little girl seemed to be avoiding her on purpose.
