Chapter 345: Only One Brother?

Shen Luo wiped away the sweat on his forehead and shook his head. “I don’t know. Let’s wait and see. But he will be fine if he doesn’t vomit the medicine.”

He was still worried and then told a young assistant to decoct the medicinal herbs as he did just now. Then he told the wet nurse, “Stay with him. Feed him medicine if he vomits again. No matter what happens, we have to make him take in medicine.”

The wet nurse’s family name was Guo, and she was hired by Mo Junyang, so she naturally acted upon whatever Shen Luo said. “I see.”

Shen Luo turned his head, to see that Shi Qingxue looked pale and her thin and weak body trembled slightly with fear or worry.

“My Lady, you didn’t sleep last night. Go and have a rest for a while,” Shen Luo advised in a soft voice.

Shi Qingxue responded without raising her head, “I am fine. Doctor Shen, if you are tired, just have a rest in a guest room, but please stay in this villa till Qingmin recovers.”

Shen Luo naturally had no objection. When he wanted to persuade Shi Qingxue to have a rest, Mo Junyang walked in.

Shen Luo instantly understood that he had no say here, so he quickly put away the things in his medical kit and got up to leave.

Not until Mo Junyang walked to her did Shi Qingxue notice the comer.

She raised her head slightly and looked at the man’s eyes with concern. Then tears fell from her eyes uncontrollably at once.

“Junyang…” Qingxue hugged the man’s waist and buried her face in his belly. “I am afraid.”

The sobbing voice showed Shi Qingxue’s frailty.

She was really afraid that her brother would die.

Mo Junyang hugged Shi Qingxue and almost locked her up in his arms. “Don’t be afraid. I am here.”

He held Qingxue’s face and wiped away the tears on it. Then he kissed her forehead gently without sexual desire.

Mo Junyang didn’t advise Shi Qingxue to have a rest in her room but sat on the bedside with her and then embraced her.

“Luo will surely cure your brother, so don’t worry. Have a rest…”

His voice was like the softest sedative in the world and entered Shi Qingxue’s ears, bringing her to a sound sleep.

Mo Junyang quietly looked at the girl in his arms. There were still tears on her pale face, and she looked pitiful and fragile.

However, he knew that Shi Qingxue was not vulnerable.

She was dignified even when she faced death in the previous life.

So she acted like this because she trusted and depended on him?

Mo Junyang thought with uncertainty yet got happy inevitably.

“Qingxue…”

The man’s murmur was mixed in the silent air and then disappeared.

Shen Luo deserved to be a miracle-working doctor, and his superb medical skills brought Shi Qingmin back to life again.

Even so, since Shi Qingmin moved to the Lanxun Villa, he suffered from serious diseases or minor illnesses all the time.

Although it was not as breathtaking as the first night, he had a fever or vomited from time to time, which was scary and made the people looking after him exhausted.

There were many servants in the Lanxun Villa, and later Mo Junyang found some experienced servants to help them.

Logically, Shi Qingxue wouldn’t be tired except being frightened.

However, something troublesome happened.

Shi Qingxue had fed Shi Qingmin sugar water in person once when the wet nurse was not free.

She wasn’t good at taking care of a baby, and the process was in turmoil before she finally fed Shi Qingmin to appetite, so she heaved a sigh of relief.

However, in the next days, Shi Qingmin seemed to recognize Shi Qingxue, and he would open his mouth only when she fed him. Otherwise, he wouldn’t eat anything.

This little baby’s method of protesting was different from the hateful babies’. He didn’t cry or make a scene. He only kept his mouth shut and looked at her with his big bright eyes till she had no choice but to get soft-hearted and make a concession.

Shi Qingxue served the baby in person for half a month and finally made him fatter.

“Is there nothing wrong when he only drinks sugar water instead of milk?”

Only Shi Qingxue who was inexperienced allowed a baby less than one month old to drink sweet sugar water instead of milk all day long.

Shen Luo shrugged. “We have no choice. He will throw up after eating milk, so he has to sustain life depending on sugar water. When he can eat paste, it will be better.”

Even though the sugar water Shi Qingmin drank was specially made by Shen Luo, it was not easy for him to grow up if he only drank it.

“Great.”

Shi Qingxue finally got relieved and couldn’t help but gently pinch Shi Qingmin’s cheek with some flesh, saying with a smile, “After one month, you have finally gained some weight. It’s a pity that you are still like a noble lady and don’t talk.”

Perhaps habit made things natural. When Shi Qingxue saw the birthmark on little Qingmin’s face, she wasn’t scared. Moreover, she would caress his face without a frown, even though he was still ugly.

Nevertheless, the little baby who was one-month old had never made a sound. If Shen Luo didn’t say that Qingmin’s vocal cords were fine, Shi Qingxue would worry that he was dumb.

“He has suffered a lot. I just hope that his life in the future will be easier.”

As soon as Shi Qingxue finished her words, a servant came in to report that the Shi family sent somebody to see her.

Qingxue was joyful. “Did Father tell somebody to take us back to the mansion as Mother recovers?”

She got up and walked out quickly.

Shen Luo looked at Shi Qingxue’s happy face and couldn’t bear to let her out because she would be disillusioned after she went out.

But would nothing happen if she stayed in the Lanxun Villa and ignored everything?

It was just to cheat herself and others like a coward.

He sighed deeply and walked to the parlor with Shi Qingxue.

It was still Mammy Zheng who had come.

As soon as Shi Qingxue saw the comer, the smile on her face faded. “What are you doing here?”

Mammy Zheng didn’t dare to act recklessly because Shi Qingxue had taught her a lesson last time. She answered obediently, “Madam told me to come. She said that you have stayed in the villa for so long, so you should come back home, My Lady.”

“Mother told me to go back home?” Shi Qingxue was surprised, yet the smile on her face couldn’t be concealed.

Mammy Zheng also smiled and nodded repeatedly. “Madam misses you a lot and the feast celebrating the first month of the young master will be held in a few days. It will be improper if you don’t join it.”

Shi Qingxue was stunned and then suddenly looked up at Mammy Zheng, with her eyes as sharp as blades, which shocked the old maid.

Mammy Zheng stuttered and started to beg for mercy. “That’s what Madam said.”

She almost cried. This time, she didn’t say anything improper but did as Dong Hui ordered. Why did the young lady glare at her again?

Shi Qingxue was young and looked lovely and harmless at ordinary times, while once she got mad, her glance was enough to make others shudder with fear.

Mammy Zheng reached this conclusion after she confronted Shi Qingxue several times. If possible, she didn’t want to talk with this young lady.

Shi Qingxue’s eyes turned cold, and she stared at Mammy Zheng, seeming to wonder whether what the old maid said was true.

After a long time, she looked away and asked unhurriedly, “The feast celebrating the first month of my little brother? What about Qingmin?”

Mammy Zheng looked at Shi Qingxue hesitantly and didn’t know what to say.

“My Lady, it’s not that I show disrespect for the first young master, but Madam’s attitude is obvious. I really…” Mammy Zheng didn’t dare to disrespect Shi Qingmin this time.

However, no matter how respectful Mammy Zheng was to Shi Qingmin, the masters were decision-makers.

Dong Hui had never mentioned Shi Qingmin from beginning to end and obviously wanted to take him as an invisible person, so how dare they mention him to offend her?

“Enough. Stop talking!”

Shi Qingxue interrupted Mammy Zheng coldly and got up, walking out.

Mammy Zheng was frightened and hurriedly followed her. “My Lady, where are you going?”

“Didn’t my mother tell me to return home? It happens that I have something to talk about with her.” Shi Qingxue looked distant.

Then she leered at Mammy Zheng with a faint smile. “Or Mother doesn’t allow me to return home now?”

“No. How is it possible? Madam misses you all the time, My Lady.” Mammy Zheng smiled flatteringly with caution as she was afraid that she would irritate Shi Qingxue again.

Shi Qingxue didn’t want to talk with Mammy Zheng anymore, so she returned to Duke Shi’s mansion directly.

It happened that some people from the Dong family had come.

Dong Hui’s father Dong Biren and mother Ouyang Yuxin were in the East House and surrounded their grandson, laughing heartily.

Dong Hui laughed most happily among them.

This was her son.

It was a son of her and Shi Junhe.

Although Shi Junhe didn’t care when she didn’t give birth to a son in the past, and he loved her two daughters a lot, a woman who had no son was not intact in this era under the external environment.

Dong Hui had been annoyed and laughed at by many people because of this matter.

Now she could finally hold her head high, and she would hold the feast celebrating Tianyou’s first month in a big way and invite all the noble ladies who had mocked at her in the past to embarrass them.

Huh, those mean people said that she couldn’t give birth to a son.

When Shi Qingxue walked in, she saw the harmonious scene.

All people present congratulated Dong Hui on her son’s birth and talked in high spirits.

Shi Qingxue looked hesitant and stood at the door in silence.

Although she was furious, she hesitated when she saw the happy smiles of Dong Hui and the others.

Would she walk in and dampen all people’s spirits?

Was it proper?

Shi Qingxue pondered for nearly fifteen minutes and shook her head secretly in the end, planning to talk with Dong Hui another day.

“Qingxue, you are back!” Dong Biren found Shi Qingxue first and stopped her.

Qingxue couldn’t turn to leave, so she smiled faintly and came in, greeting all people present.

She knew well about herself. Since she couldn’t force herself to smile and be happy with them, she would pretend to be invisible.

However, Dong Hui didn’t let her go but grabbed her hand excitedly, saying with a smile, “You are finally back. I was afraid that you would enjoy yourself outside so much as to forget everything and be unwilling to come home.

“You have only one brother. If you don’t join the feast celebrating his first month, I will be mad at you.”
