Chapter 67 Falling into the water
"If the county master has something to do, just go and do it. We don't mind."
"Yes, I heard from my mother that funerals are the most tiring thing. The county chief doesn't have time to accompany us. We also understand that we won't blame the county chief."
"Speaking of which, the County Lord just arrived in Yi'an yesterday. He must be very tired. How about you go and have a rest first, and we will entertain ourselves."
……
All of a sudden, the girls were throwing flattering words at her one by one, and their flattering and flattering looks were just like their faces when they were trying to please Dai Yumin.
Xia Zihan looked at Dai Yumin and saw that her face was dark with anger.
She twitched the corners of her lips and said, "Everyone who comes to the Chu family to worship my grandfather is a guest. How can the master go to rest and leave the guests alone?"
As for leaving them alone for more than an hour, Xia Zihan ignored it.
Everyone gathered around and said, "How old is the county master this year? He looks much younger."
"I am eight years old."
"My surname is Lin. I am eleven years old and three years older than the county master. If the county master doesn't mind, please call me Sister Lin from now on."
"The county master's skin is really good, whiter and tenderer than mine."
"Tch, what's that about your skin? The pores are almost as thick as your fingers. How dare you compare it with County Master Chu Yu."
"County Lord, what did you do to pass the boring time in the past?"
"I heard that the county master was taught by Chuge Lao, so the emperor specially appointed you as the county master. Is this true?"
A large group of girls gathered around Xia Zihan and chatted, their expressions were very affectionate and flattering. Xia Zihan grinned and answered them all with a smile.
The two Dai sisters stood away from the crowd and saw that Xia Zihan had occupied the light that was rightfully theirs as soon as he arrived. The eyes he glared at Xia Zihan were as sharp as knives. They wanted to stare her to death. "Fourth sister, let's go there for a walk." With a look on her face that she didn't want to see Xia Zihan again, Dai Yuqian pulled Dai Yumin out of the Champs Elysees.
Not long after, Si Cao came to report, "Doctor Wan is here. Miss Liao invites the county master to come over."
Xia Zihan quickly stood up, said goodbye to everyone, and went to the guest house.
After diagnosis, Dr. Wan wrote a prescription for Liao Fangyi. Shortly after Liao Fangyi took it, she was able to control her diarrhea. However, she was already too weak to get out of bed.
Xia Zihan stayed with her until noon. Before dinner, he sent Silicao to invite the girl from the Champs Elysees to the side hall for dinner.
Less than five minutes after Silk Grass left, he hurried over and yelled, "County Lord, County Lord, it's not good. The horse girl from the Magistrate Tongpan's family has fallen into the water."
"What?" Xia Zihan stood up in horror, "How did Miss Ma fall into the water? Has anyone been rescued? Have you found a maid who knows how to boil water?"
Xia Zihan asked a few questions with an anxious look, and people rushed out, "Miss Liao, rest for a while, I'll go over and take a look."
"Go quickly, go quickly, I'm fine." Liao Fangyi waved her hand disapprovingly.
When Xia Zihan rushed to the lakeside in front of the Champs Elysees, Miss Ma had just been rescued by a woman. She coughed violently and water came out of her mouth.
It wasn't until the water stopped flowing out that Miss Ma turned pale, collapsed on the ground, and fainted.
Xia Zihan rushed over, helped her up with Nuan Yu, and shouted to Nuan Xiang, "Quick, go and ask Doctor Wan to come over."
With that said, he and Nuanyu helped Miss Ma to the nearby guest room.
