Cui’er fell asleep beside the bed, and the other two maidservants also fell asleep on the side. Bai Zhi walked lightly to the bed. After checking, she took advantage of the fact that maidservants were asleep and quickly injected the medicine to Dongfang Wan, then she went away quietly as if she has never been the room.

After going back and sleeping some more for a while, a maidservant came over and told her to have breakfast. She also said that Zhao Lan and Hu Changlin were already waiting in the dining room. Bai Zhi hurriedly got up and rushed to wash, and then followed the maidservant to the dining room. Everyone was there, Dongfang Mu was also there.

“Zhi’er, you’re here. Come and sit down.” Dongfang Mu waved his hand to Bai Zhi.

Bai Zhi smiled sweetly and quickly walked to the seat between Dongfang Mu and Zhao Lan to sit down.

Dongfang Mu asked: “I heard from your niang, that you were refining medicine last night? Was it done?”

Bai Zhi nodded: “It’s done, the lady is saved.”

Dongfang Mu was so excited that the teacup he was holding trembled a bit: “Is that true? Did you really save your niang?”

Bai Zhi nodded her head: “Yes. If there is no accident, she will wake up today. However, her body is still not in the condition to get too excited and still needs to recuperate. Otherwise, it will affect her recovery rate. I think it’s better to wait for her condition to stabilize before telling her this matter.”

Dongfang Mu nodded his head: “It’s okay. I’m not in a hurry at this time. It’s more important to raise her body.”

Bai Zhi said: “You talk to Cui’er later, so she won’t leak a thing.”

Dongfang Mu asked: “How long will it take for her condition to stabilize?”

Bai Zhi said: “More than half a month, more or less 10 days. It’s not that long.”

Dongfang Mu nodded: “Well, great. It seems that during the New Year, our family can really be reunited.”

“Oh, by the way, we will start our journey to the capital tomorrow. Will it hinder Waner’s recovery?” Dongfang Mu asked again.

Bai Zhi nodded: “You have me here, it will be alright. It’s just the carriage should run slowly, and not too fast. Everything will be alright by then.”

Dongfang Mu put down the worry in his heart and cheerfully said: “Zhi’er, now that you’re here, I’m not afraid of anything. I feel at ease of everything.”

Bai Zhi glanced at the sullen Ru’er and said to Dongfang Mu: “Master Dongfang, can you do me a favor?”

“You still call me master? You should call me grandfather.” Dongfang Mu grunted: “Call me grandfather, I will help you.”

Bai Zhi said, “Grandfather, can you do me a favor?”

Dongfang Mulian responded: “Come on, say it one more time.”

Bai Zhi smiled and said: “Grandfather, grandpa, can you do me a favor?”

Dongfang Mu nodded with satisfaction: “Speak, no matter what it is, grandfather promised you.”

Bai Zhi’s heart was warm. This probably what people call bloodline. It can make two unfamiliar people close in a short time.

“We have been away from Huangtuo Village for so long. Hu Feng must be looking for us. Ru’er and Xiaofeng’s father must be worried. Can you write a letter for us and send it to the military camp, so that Hu Feng can learn that we are all safe? And also Ru’er can also be reunited with her mother as soon as possible.”

Dongfang Mu said: “It’s useless to write letters now. The army of the Xiye Country has retreated. The Emperor ordered Prince Jin to return to the capital immediately. Now, he’s on his way back to the capital. I don’t know where they are now, but it doesn’t matter. We can see them in the capital soon.”

When Hu Feng returned to the capital, Zhou Awu must have followed him. Zhao Sue will surely follow him. This way, they can all get together in the capital.
