Song Lang went to the bed and looked at her. Seeing that her eyes were closed, but her eyelashes were shaking slightly, he knew she was pretending to be asleep. He smiled and said: “Sleep if you want, I have arranged a maid for you. I will let her in a while, tell her if you need anything. Also, I brought all your things, it’s here in these boxes in the room. ”

He has seen all those things, and there were a lot of them. But just like his men, he also couldn’t figure it out.

It’s better not to think too much about it, right? So that things won’t be too complicated.

When Song Lang went out, Bai Zhi let out a long breath.

If he didn’t leave, how will she have a chance to wash off the dirt from her body? The toxins discharged from her body were all sticking to her body at this time, it felt uncomfortable.

Sure enough, just as she sat up, a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl walked in. She looked familiar.

“You’re… Xiao Qing?” She didn’t see her for more than a month, she almost didn’t recognize her. Xiao Qing, who was in front of her seemed to be a different person.

Xiao Qing nodded, with a smile on her face and with a hint of excitement in her eyes. She thought she would never see Bai Zhi again, but she did not expect to see it so soon.

“If the young lady needs anything, just instruct this slave.” Xiao Qing said to Bai Zhi.

Bai Zhi is also polite: “I want to take a bath, help me prepare two buckets of hot water.”

Two buckets? Xiao Qing was dumbfounded. She will take a bath alone, but she asked for two buckets of hot water?

“Miss, is one bucket, not enough?”

Bai Zhi shook her head: “Not enough, I want two buckets.”

Seeing her insistence, Xiao Qing couldn’t say another word to refute, so she immediately went to prepare.

There was a special boiler for hot water on the boat. She called another two maids, and the three quickly moved two buckets of hot water into the cabin.

Xiao Qing walked toward Bai Zhi: “Miss, I’ll help you to take a bath.”

Bai Zhi waved her hand: “No need, I’ll do it myself, you step back, I’ll call you again if I have something.”

Xiao Qing hesitated: “But the young master said that you are inconvenient to move now, so let this slave serve you closely.”

Bai Zhi shook her head: “He is too exaggerated. Although I am weak, I haven’t reached the point where I need someone to serve me personally. Okay, you step back. If your young master blames you, you tell me, okay?”

Xiao Qing finally nodded her head. She put the change of clothes on the screen stand beside the bucket, turned around, and went out.

If there were no two buckets of water, how will she wash off this layer of sticky dirt from her body? After Bai Zhi took a bath, she lay back on the bed again, making a weak and powerless appearance, so as not to let Xiao Qing see something.

After all, that girl was one of Song Lang’s people. Letting her serve her was nothing more than monitoring her.

“This water?” Xiao Qing looked at the black water in the wooden bucket in surprise. It was so dirty, it couldn’t have been bathwater, right? That was too dirty. She turned to look at Bai Zhi, but no matter how she looked at her, she couldn’t tell if this black water was the one she had just bathed in.

Bai Zhi dryly smiled: “I just wanted to practice calligraphy, but I didn’t have the strength in my hand. I accidentally overturned the inkstone, the ink got into my hair, I washed it with the water there.”

It turned out to be the case, after all, how could the water become so dirty right after taking a bath?

Xiao Qing didn’t doubt her, so she simply called someone to carry the barrel out and pour it out.

“Is the young lady hungry?” Xiao Qing asked.

Bai Zhi touched her stomach and wanted to say that she was hungry, but she was afraid that Song Lang would give her another medicine. She had to endure it.

“I’m not hungry, you step back, I’m going to sleep.”

Xiao Qing helped her pull up the quilt, and then brought the warm tea to the bedside: “Do you want me to turn off the lights for you?”

Bai Zhi shook her head: “No, just let it lit up.”
