Chapter 116 The childhood sweetheart who deceived the feelings of the sinister official (4)
Long-term worry will inevitably have an impact on the body.
Since her young lady is in poor health, the impact will definitely be greater. Thinking of this, Hua Rui couldn't help but become even more anxious.
The desire to help the young lady solve her problems suddenly became active.
After thinking about it, Huarui came up with an idea.
He told Ji Chutang that he was not feeling well and wanted to go downstairs to rest.
Ji Chutang waved his hand gently and asked Hua Rui to go down and rest.
She doesn't need to stay by her side all the time.
Hua Rui felt emotional again, thinking how lucky she was to have a good master who treated her so kindly.
No matter what she thought, after respectfully leaving Ji Chutang's boudoir, Hua Rui went straight to the outer courtyard.
As the young lady's maid, she could leave the house at any time to buy various things for the young lady, because the young lady could not go out at any time.
Although the people of the Yu Dynasty were open-minded and treated women less harshly than in previous dynasties, the status of women was significantly improved.
Women in the previous dynasty were not allowed to show their faces in public.
There are very few young ladies from wealthy families going out on the street, and they always wear a veil when they go out.
However, there are no miscellaneous regulations that restrict women in this dynasty.
But my young lady's situation is special. She was a premature baby and was unable to absorb enough nutrients in the womb. When she was born, she looked like a kitten.
Almost couldn't make ends meet.
He finally grew up safely, but he was raised in a medicine environment since he was young. He was very fragile and was not allowed to go out if the weather conditions were a little bad.
At such times, her maid would go out to buy what she needed, or if she needed to go out to do something, her maid would do it.
So Hua Rui can go out alone without even informing anyone, which is equivalent to her privilege.
Hua Rui didn't delay at all and went out directly, heading straight for the Qi family next door. However, she didn't go through the front door, but the side door.
A young servant was guarding the side door.
When the boy saw the pistil, his eyes suddenly lit up.
He quickly invited Hua Rui into the side room.
Her eyes sparkled, and her tone was filled with obvious joy: "Sister Huarui, why are you here? Is there something Miss Ji needs to convey to the young master?"
The servant Chang An was specially arranged by Qi Jingxiao to work at the side door gate. Originally, he was a servant in the young master's courtyard, and he couldn't accept being arranged to work at the gatehouse all of a sudden. He felt like he was exiled to a remote place to fend for himself.
Later, he was extremely fortunate that his main task was to receive Miss Ji's personal maid Hua Rui.
Whenever Miss Ji couldn't come to the Qi family and needed something delivered or conveyed, she would ask Hua Rui to come to the side door to inform him.
Then he handed it over or conveyed it to his own son.
This is a good job. Every time Miss Ji sends something or passes a message to the young master, he will get a reward from the young master.
Whenever the young master was in a bad mood, he was able to escape danger because he was far away, and even though he was far away, he was still a first-class servant beside the young master.
His elder brother Chang Ming had been the young master's confidant since childhood, and his status had risen accordingly, so naturally such a good job fell on him.
When Chang An saw Hua Rui at this moment, he felt like he had seen a savior. In recent days, his master had been in a bad mood, and naturally, they, the servants, were the ones who suffered.
Although he was far away and didn't have to be so nervous, his brother was suffering, so he would naturally think about him.
Although I don't know why the young master has been in a bad mood recently, but Miss Ji has conveyed the news, which will surely make him happier.
Hua Rui only said one sentence, but Chang An's face fell.
"The young lady has been too worried lately. I am concerned about her health and would like Master Qi to think of a way to meet her."
The young master has been gloomy and cold recently, and now he is told that Miss Ji is too worried. How can he expect a good face from the young master?
Chang An's face fell and he cried, "I understand. Sister Huarui, please go back."
Although Chang An was very sad, he dared not delay the news of Miss Ji for even a moment, let alone hide it. If he let the young master know, he would be skinned alive.
After sending the pistil out, she did not dare to delay at all and went straight to the young master's yard.
After Hua Rui left, she felt much more at ease about her young lady. She did not say explicitly that her young lady was missing Master Qi. She was not stupid and knew that such words should not be said openly.
But as long as you tell Master Qi that the young lady is too worried, he will naturally find a way to meet the young lady. Even if they don't meet, he will definitely make the young lady happy.
As long as Master Qi takes action, there will be no problem.
Huarui is very confident about this.
Ji Chutang didn't know that her personal maid had given her such a big surprise. The system knew and also sighed that it was the strongest assist.
Chang An came to the young master's yard. The atmosphere in the whole yard was very gloomy and dead silent, without a trace of vitality.
When the master is in a bad mood, the servants naturally have to be tactful and dare not offend the master, so they all do their work with their tails between their legs.
When they saw Chang An appear, their eyes lit up, as if they had seen a savior, just like the look in Chang An's eyes when he first saw Hua Rui.
However, Chang An was not in high spirits. Instead, he looked anxious and walked hurriedly. Everyone's heart sank and a bad premonition lingered in everyone's mind.
Not daring to stay, he went straight to the young master's study.
Chang An saw his brother Chang Ming guarding the door from a distance, and he immediately walked forward.
Under Chang Ming's puzzled look, he told him about his request to see the young master.
Seeing that it was Chang An, Chang Ming naturally knew that something must have happened to Miss Ji.
Nodded to show that you understood.
Then he turned around and knocked lightly on the study door, saying, "Sir, Chang An has something to report."
Then a soothing voice came from inside: "Come in."
Chang Ming then pushed open the door, and Chang An walked in with a bitter face. The next second, Chang Ming closed the door of the study.
With a creaky sound, the door closed, casting a shadow that also enveloped Chang An's heart.
But no matter how much he didn't want to face his own young master at this moment, Chang An had to bite the bullet. The arrow was on the string and had to be shot.
He walked all the way in and stopped in front of a curtain with beads hanging. Behind the curtain was the young master's desk. He knew that the young master was inside at the moment.
She bent down slightly and prepared to report to the young master, but her mind suddenly got stuck and she couldn't remember what Sister Huarui said.
I only remember that something happened to Miss Ji. She must have been in poor health. Miss Ji has been weak since childhood, and Sister Huarui was very worried, so she hoped that her son could go to see her for the last time?
After Chang An came in, he didn't say anything for a long time. Qi Jingxiao frowned and was a little confused: "What's the matter?"
Qi Jingxiao's voice was cold and clear, which brought Chang An back to his senses in an instant. Chang An was so scared that sweat broke out on his forehead. He wondered how he could be so bold as to be distracted in front of the young master.
She hurriedly reported back, not caring whether her words were appropriate or not: "Sir, there's news from Hua Rui that Miss Ji is no longer alive, and she wants to see you one last time..."
