Do you resent me?

The entire Xiao Mansion was deathly still.

In the Xiao Mansion, there were not many people left. Compared to when she was in her prime, she looked extremely frail. Now that the old mistress had fallen ill, it was unknown what kind of situation she would be in in in the future.

Xiao Jingyu and Ripple guarded the old lady, and did not say a word.

If there was anything to say, it was Xiao Jingyu who grabbed the old lady's hand and repeated himself, "Grandmother, please hold on. The imperial physician will be here soon!"

In the midst of the gloomy clouds, the imperial physician arrived.

It was already August, and the weather was a little cold. Imperial Physician Fang ran all the way in with Tang Jingzhi while carrying his medicine box, his forehead covered in a layer of sweat.

"Xiao Shang Shu, please leave first. Leave behind Lady Rippling." The Imperial Physician Fang did not wait for them to catch their breath and instructed.

Xiao Jingyu looked at Tang Jingzhi, and after getting his nod, he became at ease.

"I'll leave everything to the two of you."

Saying so, he left with the others, leaving Ripple to help out inside the house.

Others might not know who Tang Jingzhi was, but he had met him before. Imperial Physician Fang's medical skills were already very high, and far above that of Imperial Physician Fang's.

With Mr. Tang here, he would definitely be fine.

Yes, it will be fine!

Only now did she know that her little aunt was still alive and that her great grandmother doted on her so much. She definitely wouldn't be willing to leave just like that.

She just didn't know if her little aunt would show up.

There was no sound from the inside of the room. The atmosphere was extremely tense.

Xiao Jingyu stared at the door that was tightly shut, he held his breath, and did not blink.

"Jing Yu, how is the old wet nurse?" Anxious voices sounded from outside.

Xiao Jingyu suddenly turned his head around. The familiar voice and the anxiety within the voice shocked him and gave him comfort.

Yuwen He and Xiao Ruyue came over.

Their carriage was naturally not as fast as Tang Jingzhi and Imperial Physician Fang's horses. But it was not too late.

Xiao Jingyu was startled, his mind went blank, he had forgotten how to react.

little aunt

'Really, little aunt! '

Others couldn't fake it, but it wasn't possible for them to have such true concern.

It was a good thing that the old steward understood the situation. With the presence of the Emperor and the Empress, not only were they not dressed in ordinary attire, but they were also dressed in luxurious attire. This was a great honor.

The servants of Xiao Mansion were momentarily stunned. Under the lead of the old steward, they kneeled down and greeted the Emperor, as well as the Empress.

"Let's skip the formalities and rise." Xiao Ruyue was anxious at the moment, she did not care too much as she strode forward and asked Xiao Jingyu, "Where's the old lady? "What's the situation now?"

"My Mr. Tang and my Imperial Physician Fang have not been inside for long, and there's no movement. I don't know either." Xiao Jingyu stuttered for a moment.

Xiao Ruyue replied with an "En" and walked past him to push open the door.

"Esteemed Empress, my old mistress is still …" The old manager was about to stop her when he was stopped by a look from Yuwen He. The old manager did not understand why, but he could only retreat.

Xiao Ruyue pushed the door open and entered, then closed the door with a flip of her hand.

Following that, a few voices came out, including Ripple who was shocked to see Xiao Ruyue. But soon it was quiet again.

Ripple came out and brought out two cups of hot water, both of them shaking his head at Xiao Jingyu.

Yuwen He stood with his hands behind his head from end to end, his face was neither happy nor angry, and no one was able to see through his expression.

After around an hour, Tang Jingzhi and Imperial Physician Fang finally opened the door and walked out.

Xiao Ruyue and Ripple didn't come out though.

Tang Jingzhi heaved a sigh of relief, "It's fine, the old lady is fine." Without waiting for Xiao Jingyu to speak.

The Imperial Physician Fang continued with his words, "The old mistress' blood was just agitated for a moment, causing his heart to be blocked. After using the golden needles to clear his acupoints, the blocked blood vessels were cleared. However, the old mistress is already old, and his body is no longer that of a young person. He cannot afford to be knocked around and his emotions fluctuated. You must take care of his mood and allow her to rest in peace, so that he can live on for a long period of time. "

Imperial Physician Fang spoke with sincerity, but Xiao Jingyu trembled when he heard his.

His face turned pale as he hurriedly asked, "Then, will my great-grandmother … still …"

Imperial Physician Fang's face darkened, "The madame needs some time to recuperate. He needs some time to recuperate well, perhaps he can even watch your children walk around his knees. However, the madame would sleep for a while longer. He probably wouldn't wake up that soon. "I'll give you a prescription later. Just follow it and give it to the madame, and he'll be fine."

Tang Jingzhi added a word at the back, "Mmm." It increased the credibility of his words.

Xiao Jingyu heaved a sigh of relief, ignored everything and walked straight into the house.

Instead, it collided head-on with the ripples.

The two of them looked at each other awkwardly, then Xiao Jingyu's fair and handsome face blushed red and immediately retreated to allow her to pass, then anxiously went in.

Tang Jingzhi nodded lightly as he met Yuwen He's gaze, "Since the old lady is fine, then I will take my leave first." With that, he left.

Imperial Physician Fang chased after him and called out to him in a low voice, "Uncle Master, please wait!"

Tang Jingzhi stopped and turned his head impatiently, "What now? Didn't I satisfy your curiosity and show you something just now? How much did you learn? "

Imperial Physician Fang extended four fingers and silently retracted another, "Thirty percent."

Tang Jingzhi facepalmed, "Forget it, with your talent, being able to learn thirty percent is already not bad. This needle technique was different from the needle technique of the Pill King Valley, but they all came from different ways. Remember this well, it will be beneficial for your treatment in the future. Why, are you still not letting us go? Do you have feelings for Master?! "

He did not have such a hobby!

The Imperial Physician Fang hurriedly released the hand that was holding onto Tang Jingzhi's sleeve, his face full of fear. "I, I just wanted to ask, the empress's method of giving the old lady the last two needles seemed to be the same as yours …"

"Exactly the same?"

He nodded vigorously.

"Think about who her master is, and think about who helped improve your Uncle Master's needle technique." Tang Jingzhi reminded.

The Imperial Physician Fang scratched his head and thought for a while. Then, he thought of something and raised his head to look, only to find that Tang Jingzhi's people had all disappeared.

This grand uncle was too difficult to fathom.

In the old mistress' room.

Xiao Ruyue guarded the bedside as the curtain was put down.

After Xiao Jingyu entered, he stood by the door and looked at her from afar before looking at the unconscious Old Mistress Xiao on the bed, not saying a word.

Yuwen He ordered the old manager to dismiss someone, and told everyone to get busy before he slowly stepped into the room.

He closed the door as if nothing had happened and walked behind Xiao Ruyue, holding her shoulders and said faintly, "The old lady is fine, don't worry."

"I know."

"You don't know." Yuwen He sighed, and flicked his finger on her forehead. Xiao Ruyue felt the pain and immediately straightened himself, not wanting to give her a reply, "What a time, how can you be so disrespectful."

Before he finished speaking, from the corner of his eyes, he caught a glimpse of Xiao Jingyu standing close to the wall.

She was stunned for a moment before waving at him, "Jing Yu, come here."

This face was clearly younger than him, but the confident tone in his voice made it impossible for Xiao Jingyu to refuse.

He hesitated for a moment, but eventually began to walk. Step by step, he walked forward very slowly.

He lowered his head and looked at Xiao Ruyue, his face revealing nervousness. His lips also slightly paled and trembled as if he wanted to say something, but no matter what, he couldn't find the words.

However, looking at his lips, Xiao Ruyue understood that he was calling her Little Aunt.

"Jing Yu, do you blame me?" Xiao Ruyue fixed her eyes on him, and the moment she said those words, her tears fell as well.

Sad that I didn't reveal my identity earlier, resentful that I chose the wrong time, causing my grandmother to act like this.

Xiao Jingyu was originally able to stabilize his body, but when she said this, his eyes also reddened, and tears fell from the eyes of the young lad who was already in his early twenties.

"No, not at all."

He choked and gasped for air, "If it weren't for the doubts I've had for so long, if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed it at all. "It's not your fault, it's not my little aunt's fault!"

Xiao Ruyue almost stopped crying, because the two words "little aunt" broke the barrier again, "Jing Yu, I … … I really don't want to be like this."

"I understand, I understand, little aunt."

Crying, the two of them carried each other.

To Xiao Ruyue, the child that her brother left behind was someone she had watched him grow up. She was a close relative, an inseparable family member. Her parents had died early, so his family members were her great-grandmother, her grandfather, her grandmother, and her little aunt.

Especially his little aunt, the one who had played with him since childhood was her, and the one who had taught him to write the first word was also her.

In his heart, there was an irreplaceable place for his little aunt. Even if his parents were still alive, there was no place for them.

"Cough cough!"

A string of untimely fake coughs sounded, appearing somewhat abrupt.

Xiao Jingyu immediately retreated, and when he met Yuwen He's gaze, he felt extremely guilty, and immediately lowered his head again, "Your Majesty, please forgive me."

Little aunt, in the end, she's still the empress. After all, it wasn't appropriate for him to hold his little aunt in front of His Majesty.

However, Xiao Ruyue glanced at Yuwen He unhappily. This was her nephew by blood.

Yuwen He showed a peaceful smile and said, "What are all of you crying for? Since the madame is fine, your family can be considered reunited. It's a good thing that we are reunited with our loved ones.

Xiao Ruyue then revealed a smile and sat back down.

She held Old Mistress Xiao's hand with both of her hands. The old man's hands were different from her nine years old skin which looked like congealed oil. His skin had already lost its luster and lost its elasticity.

It was Grandma.

From today onwards, she could call her grandmother in an open manner, and not in her heart, she could only endure her grief. She could even call her 'Madame' as if nothing had happened.

Yuwen He quietly stood behind her, and so did Xiao Jingyu.

No one in the room moved, no one spoke. Just like that, it was silent.

Suddenly, the hand that was held tightly by Xiao Ruyue moved.

She blurted out in surprise, "Grandma!"
