282 I’ll Go See Him
“Lan, I went to buy eight chicks to raise in the back.” Liu Sujuan was very happy. “When the time comes, the eggs laid by the chickens I raise will definitely be good.”
“As long as you’re not tired.” Le Yao naturally wouldn’t object.
“What’s so tiring about that?” Liu Sujuan smiled. “I even bought vegetable seeds. I’ll plant some chives first…”
Le Yao only had some theories about farming and planting vegetables. In fact, she had never touched them before, let alone know when to plant them. Therefore, she did whatever Liu Sujuan said.
“Chick…” Shuo Shuo seemed to be very excited and looked at Le Yao with sparkling eyes.
“Yes, cute chicken baby.” Le Yao rubbed Shuo Shuo’s head. “Then you have to help Grandma feed the chicken babies in the future.”
Shuo Shuo nodded happily.
“Lan, I think Shuo Shuo’s condition is really getting better and better.” Liu Sujuan smiled. “He’s almost three years old. Can he go to kindergarten?”
“Next year.” Le Yao nodded. “I’ll bring him for a check-up in a few days and see how he’s doing.”
Liu Sujuan had no objections. Then, she brought Shuo Shuo to the backyard where Han Baozhu was preparing to build a chicken coop.
“Young Lady, I went out to buy groceries today and saw Sir Jue next door being carried back.” Sister Mei brought over a cup of chrysanthemum tea. “I don’t know if he’s sick or injured…”
“Is it that serious?”
“Anyway, it looks pretty serious to me.”
“I’ll go take a look.” Le Yao turned around and walked out.
Nangong Jue was thinking about how to get Le Yao to come over and take a look at his miserable state when Aunt Bai said that Young Madam was here. He quickly lay on the bed and pretended to be very weak. After thinking for a while, it didn’t seem to be enough, so he poked his butt hard and opened one of the wounds. He only stopped when he saw some sticky blood oozing out.
“Aunt Bai, is Sir Jue injured?” Le Yao followed Aunt Bai into the house. “Is it serious?”
“Sigh.” Aunt Bai sighed. “Young Madam, I won’t hide it from you. He was unconscious for the past few days and only woke up yesterday. He’s not in a critical state now…”
“Who hurt him?” Le Yao couldn’t be bothered to correct the way Aunt Bai addressed her. Anyway, no matter how she corrected her, she would still call her Young Madam. So be it.
“Well…” Aunt Bai glanced at Le Yao. “I don’t know either.”
Le Yao stopped asking. “Then I’ll go see him.”
“He’s in his room. Second Young Master Fu just applied medicine for him. I don’t know if he’s asleep.” Aunt Bai brought Le Yao to the door of Nangong Jue’s room and knocked lightly. “Young master, Young Madam is here to see you.”
“Come in.” After a long time, a weak voice came from inside.
Aunt Bai opened the door and gestured for Le Yao to enter. She even considerately closed the door.
Nangong Jue’s master bedroom was a suite. There was a small living room outside, separated from the bedroom by the treasure pavilion.
Le Yao walked in and saw Nangong Jue lying on the bed. He was wearing white pajamas, but at this moment, there seemed to be blood on his butt.
“Lan, you… sit anywhere. I’ll get up now…” Nangong Jue struggled out of bed, but before he could take two steps, his body swayed and he fell to the side.
Le Yao subconsciously took a step forward and supported him. “Stop trying so hard. Lie down. I think your wound is bleeding again.”
