Jiang Ning nodded, "I will help you and reunite you with Doctor Xue."
Xue Xiu was filled with tears. She immediately knelt down and kowtowed heavily, "Thank you, miss. Thank you, miss!" She thought she would never see her grandfather again in her life, but she didn't expect to meet a noble person who said she was willing to help her.
Jiang Ning immediately supported her and prevented her from kowtowing, "You're welcome. If it weren't for you, Jiang Minglan would have died a long time ago. It was you who saved his life."
Xue Xiu looked blank after hearing this, "I saved the second young master?"
"You don't know?" Jiang Ning frowned and looked at her.
Xue Xiu seemed to understand nothing and had no idea that she was born with medicinal blood.
Jiang Ning pointed to her injured hand and said, "The blood on your body is special and can be used as medicine. Jiang Mengyue took your blood to use it as medicine."
"My blood... can be used as medicine?"
Xue Xiu looked down at her injured hand and murmured, "Second Miss comes here every once in a while to get blood. It turns out... she uses my blood as a medicine."
There was no hatred in her eyes, but a slight smile, "So that's it. My blood can be used to save people. It's great."
Jiang Ning looked at the pure smile on Xue Xiu's face and didn't know what to say.
Compared to someone else, she is the complete opposite.
Jiang Mengyue took her blood as her own, pretended to take credit, and was very scheming.
Jiang Ning's eyes darkened, "I will help you, but before that, I need your cooperation. You have to act as instructed, can you do it?"
"I can!" Xue Xiu nodded.
As long as she can be reunited with her grandfather, she is willing to do whatever she is asked to do.
At this time, Chu Yunli, who had been silent for a long time, said, "How do you want to help her?"
"She has medicinal blood, which is very important to the Marquis Mansion. According to you, it was her blood that saved Jiang Minglan's life. How can you guarantee that the Marquis Mansion will release her?"
It wasn't that Chu Yunli's words were cold, but that he had seen this kind of situation many times.
After the Marquis Mansion learned of the situation, they would definitely not let her go.
Jiang Ning narrowed her eyes, "They will let her go because Doctor Xue can save Jiang Minglan and make him recover and stop getting sick again."
"What's more troublesome than the Marquis Mansion is Jiang Mengyue.. Jiang Mengyue has been claiming credit for so many years, how could she let the truth come to light... She will definitely try her best to cover up the matter, and even find someone to do silence her."
This was also the reason why she mistook Chu Yunli and the others for assassins.
She thought Jiang Mengyue had hired an assassin to kill Xue Xiu.
If this matter is revealed, Jiang Mengyue's disguise will be torn apart, and everyone in the Marquis Mansion will be frightened by her despicableness.
What matters now is how to expose this matter.
Chu Yunli raised his eyes and looked at Jiang Ning, thoughtfully, "It sounds like you care about Jiang Mengyue?"
Jiang Ning was stunned and unknowingly revealed her true intention in front of Chu Yunli. Before that, she had hidden it very well and never showed her thoughts. No one knew that she harbored hatred.
But she was negligent and actually revealed her thoughts in front of Chu Yunli.
She was upset inside, frowning, and wanted to hit herself on the head.
Why did she let down her guard in front of him?
She clenched her fists, forced her thoughts down, regained her composure, raised her face, and looked over, "Lord Chu, you think too much. I just feel unfair for Miss Xue."
"It's obviously Miss Xue's credit, but Jiang Mengyue took it and took it as her own. I can't stand her hypocrisy."
Chu Yunli looked at her quietly and said nothing.
Jiang Ning felt guilty, turned around, and turned away from looking at him.
The more she talks, the more mistakes she makes, and she can’t expose herself in front of him.
She immediately changed the subject, "I will take care of the matter in the Marquis Mansion. I also ask Lord Chu to do a favor and send someone to protect Miss Xue. If someone wants to kill Miss Xue, you must protect her safety."
Chu Yunli nodded lightly, "Okay."
Jiang Ning then said to Xue Xiu, "Miss Xue, you go back to Villa first and keep the matter of meeting us a secret for now. Tomorrow Jiang Mengyue or the servants of the Marquis Mansion will come to the Villa to collect blood. You can give it to them obediently."
"Okay." Although Xue Xiu didn't know what Miss Jiang wanted to do, she just had to follow the instructions honestly.
Miss Jiang said that she would help her and reunite her with her grandfather.
......
Jiang Ning rushed back to the Marquis Mansion overnight.
After climbing over the wall and returning to Ning'an Courtyard, the sky turned white and dimly lit up.
Jiang Ning quietly opened the door and walked in.
"Ah!" Chunlan stood up suddenly and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that her lady was back, "Miss, you are finally back..."
Jiang Ning took off her black clothes and changed into the long skirt she usually wears.
She didn't sleep all night, she yawned, her face was pale, and her eyes were pale black.
"Chunlan, bring me the rouge and powder."
"Yes, Miss." Chunlan also stayed up all night, anxiously waiting for Miss and Shuangyue to come back, fearing that someone would come to the Ning'an Courtyard and find that Miss was not there.
Fortunately, the lady came back in time.
Jiang Ning sat in front of the bronze mirror and lightly applied powder to her face to cover up the black spots under her eyes.
After her face seemed to be back to normal, she got up and went to Jiang Minglan's yard.
As soon as she stepped into the room, she smelled a bitter medicinal smell.
Madam Lin was sitting by the bed with a haggard face. It seemed that she had been by Jiang Minglan's side all night.
Jiang Ning said, "Mom, please go back and freshen up. I'll guard here."
Madam Lin shook her head, unwilling to leave.
Jiang Ning winked at Aunt Gui, who understood and advised, "Miss is right, Madam, you should go back to freshen up, and you haven't eaten for a whole day... If this continues, the third young master will wake up but you will collapse."
Madam Lin's face moved slightly. Jiang Ning walked over and helped Madam Lin up by force, "Mom, don't exhaust yourself."
In the end, Madam Lin couldn't help but nod, "Okay, I'll leave this to you."
Jiang Minglan's high fever has subsided, his body temperature has returned to normal, and his complexion has improved a lot. Madam Lin felt relieved and stood up to leave.
In the room, Jiang Ning walked to the bed and looked at Jiang Minglan.
She stretched out her hand and checked Jiang Minglan's pulse.
Jiang Minglan's pulse has become more stable, but it is still weak. It seems that the fire poison in the body has not been completely eliminated, and if it continues like this after a few days, he will get sick again.
The prescriptions left by charlatans can only suppress the fire poison, but cannot completely cure it.
But Doctor Xue can cure it.
Jiang Ning looked at Jiang Minglan and said quietly, "You'll be fine."
Just as she was about to let go of his hand, her hand was suddenly grabbed tightly. At some point, Jiang Minglan opened his eyes, his face was blank as if he hadn't fully woken up yet.
Jiang Minglan blinked in confusion, turned around, and looked at the person next to him.
When he was in the most pain, someone held his hand.
That person's hands were cool and comfortable, and he didn't know why he felt at ease.
He saw a female figure.
"Sister..." He moved his chapped lips and called.
Jiang Ning's body trembled, and when she heard Jiang Minglan calling her sister, she got goosebumps all over her body.
