Meng Nan suddenly shouted: “I know someone, she must have a way to save her mother.”
Meng Daren hurriedly asked: “Who?”
Meng Nan anxiously said: “Bai Zhi, her name is Bai Zhi, and she lives in Dongfang Family Mansion. I will go to her now. She has good medical skills and can definitely cure mother.”
Imperial Doctor Zhang, who was prescribing on the side, immediately stopped writing when he heard this. Then, he quickly walked closer to Meng Nan and asked: “Meng Gongzi, that Bai Zhi, is she a 13 or 14-year-old girl?”
Meng Nan nodded his head: “Exactly, Imperial Doctor Zhang also knows her?”
Imperial Doctor Zhang immediately smiled and said: “It turns out that Meng Gongzi also knew Miss Bai. I don’t know her, but I had heard about her. On New Year’s Eve, when the empress dowager had a stroke. Imperial Doctor Xu was helpless. It was Miss Bai who saved the empress dowager and the entire Imperial Hospital.”
Meng Daren also remembered what happened on New Year’s Eve. At that time, he didn’t see what the girl looked like. He only knew that it was a person brought by Dongfang Mu. And it seems that Prince Jin also knew her. How could his son also know her?
Seeing his father’s face in doubt, Meng Nan hurriedly pulled up his sleeves and revealed the scar on his wrists: “Father, my hand was bitten off by a tiger before. At that time, all the doctors said that there was no cure and that I will be disabled. But isn’t my hand move freely as before? I can even use a sword.”
Imperial Doctor Zhang was an expert, so he quickly grabbed Meng Nan’s wrist and took a closer look. It’s just a pity, he could not see anything except a scar.
“Have you really been bitten by a tiger?” Imperial Doctor Zhang asked.
Meng Nan nodded: “Naturally, it is a serious matter, can I make up this kind of thing?”
Meng Daren said with an anxious look on the face: “But Miss Bai lived in the palace and is treating the empress dowager. When can she have time to take of care us?”
Imperial Doctor Zhang hurriedly said: “I heard from someone in the Imperial Hospital that Miss Bai has been taken back to Dongfang Family Mansion by Master Dongfang, saying that she is distressed and too tired in the palace, so he specially asked the emperor’s kindness to let him take her home.”
As soon as Imperial Doctor Zhang finished saying those words, Meng Nan ran away. Even on such a cold day, he didn’t ride the carriage, he rode straight to the Dongfang Family Mansion.

As soon as Bai Zhi went home, she slept in her room. When she woke up, it was already diner time. So their family sat around the table and finally had a reunion dinner.
There was a plate of dumplings in the middle of the dinner table, which looks a bit like Bai Zhi’s craft, but not as good as her.
Cui’er picked two pieces for Bai Zhi and smiled: “Miss, you can try my craftsmanship.”
“Okay. Cui’er, I only taught you once, but your craft is pretty decent!” Bai Zhi picked up a fat dumpling and took a bite. Well, the leek and egg stuffing was quite fragrant.
“How does it taste?” Cui’er looked at Bai Zhi nervously, while waiting for her comment.
Bai Zhi tasted it and let Cui’er wait nervously for a while. Seeing the look on Cuier’s face, she smiled and said: “Very well, there is a tendency for you to be an expert. It’s not bad. If I’m not here in the future, you can make this for the madam.”
Dongfang Wan immediately retracted her chopsticks and looked at her with frowned eyebrows: “What do you mean when you are not her? Where are you going?”
Bai Zhi laughed dryly: “I didn’t want to go anywhere, I just said it casually. It’s nothing, don’t think about it!”
Can Dongfang Wan not think about it? Although she was Bai Zhi’s mother, she had never taken good care of her. It was Zhao Lan. If Bai Zhi will leave one day, she would definitely take Zhao Lan, and not her. Well, she couldn’t go with her, she couldn’t leave her old father alone. She only had a daughter, but her father also only had her.
