Chapter 225 Mutual Probing

Ye Ningyuan dodged first, clutching her stomach and groaning, "Momo is too heartless, it hurts so much. It's over, it's over, one kiss won't fix this, it'll take at least two."

Su Yunmo gritted her teeth, "Are you done playing?"

What was she pretending for? She hadn't even kicked her!

"Just kidding," Ye Ningyuan raised an eyebrow and smiled, crossing her arms, "It's okay if you don't kiss, but you still have to give me something to show for it, right?"

Her gaze fell on the candied hawthorn, and she snatched it, "This is mine now."

Su Yunmo's forehead was about to explode, "That's mine! Give it back!"

The little dumpling pounced, trying to reach for the item in her hand.

Ye Ningyuan raised her hand, holding the candied hawthorn just high enough for Su Yunmo to touch its side, but completely out of reach.

Su Yunmo was furious and bit towards her wrist.

"Oh, I didn't expect Momo to be like a little puppy," Ye Ningyuan quickly pinched her chin, holding it firmly, and smirked playfully, "It's a pity you're just a puppy, your milk teeth haven't even fallen out yet."

Su Yunmo: "..."

Damn it, she was going to fight her today!

She lunged, smashing Ye Ningyuan to the ground, and clutched the front of her clothes tightly.

The room door opened.

Lü Luo, seeing the two rolling on the ground, was startled, "Miss, what are you doing?"

Su Yunmo lifted her little head, her cheeks flushed red, her cheeks puffed out in anger, and she said hatefully, "Stealing food!"

Bah! She said it wrong!

Lü Luo helplessly stepped forward and quickly picked up the little dumpling, placing her back on the bed.

Ye Ningyuan also sat up, brushed the dust off herself, and took a bite of the candied hawthorn with a very good mood, making smacking sounds.

Su Yunmo was even more annoyed.

"Miss, look, you've gotten your freshly changed clothes dirty again. Someone from the Han Manor has come and asked you to go over."

A flicker of surprise crossed Ye Ningyuan's eyes.

Su Yunmo extended her small hand for Lü Luo to wipe it, "What's the matter?"

"They didn't say, they just prepared a carriage to pick you up." Ah Lü helped her clean her clothes and tidy them up, "Do you want to go?"

Su Yunmo paused, "Is Ye Jingyu there today?"

Lü Luo: "His Highness Prince Yu went into the palace early this morning."

"Then I'll go."

It seemed Han Jitong had persuaded Feng Qing'er to return. It was a good thing Ye Jingyu wasn't here, so she could handle things more easily.

"So you do have someone you're afraid of?" Ye Ningyuan bit off the last hawthorn fruit, smacked her lips, and raised an eyebrow.

Su Yunmo glanced at her sideways, "None of your business."

"Tsk tsk, it's not good for children to swear so much." Ye Ningyuan casually tossed the bamboo skewer behind her, "Alright, since you're going out, I'll be leaving now."

She waved her hand and turned to leave, not looking back.

Lü Luo bowed to see her off and asked curiously, "Miss, why did the County Princess come?"

"Whatever she wants to do." Su Yunmo didn't really want to mention her.

Lü Luo pouted and stopped asking, helping her put on her shoes and seeing her out.

Su Yunmo didn't let her follow, only instructing Gui Sha to carry the medicine box with her.

The carriage was parked at the entrance.

Su Yunmo was helped into the carriage, lifted the curtain, and saw Ye Ningyuan inside, "???"

Ye Ningyuan waved and greeted, "Why are you so slow?"

Su Yunmo took a deep breath, "Didn't you leave?"

"I was going to leave, but I'm going your way. You don't mind me hitching a ride, do you?"

"I do."

"That's good then." Ye Ningyuan spoke to herself, "I knew you wouldn't mind."

She lifted the carriage curtain, "Let's go."

"..." Su Yunmo suddenly felt like taking off her shoe and throwing it at her face.

The Yunyi Royal Manor and the Han Manor were on opposite sides, east and west. What way was convenient?

The carriage swayed all the way to the Han Manor.

Ye Ningyuan followed her out of the carriage and walked inside as if no one was around, humming a little tune and circling Su Yunmo, muttering incessantly.

When Han Jitong came out to greet them, he was surprised to see her, but didn't ask much, "Qing'er is in her room. You can go see her first."

Su Yunmo followed him to the room.

Ye Ningyuan quieted down, following behind, her gaze observing Su Yunmo.

Inside the room.

Feng Qing'er sat by the window in thin clothes.

Her hair was loose, her complexion even paler than the last time Su Yunmo saw her, red rashes had spread to her neck, and her eyes were fixed on the window, still vacant, but with a hint of resignation mixed in.

It was resignation towards 'suicide'.

Su Yunmo didn't know what Han Jitong had said to her, but as long as the patient cooperated with the treatment, the chances of curing the illness would be higher.

"Qing'er, didn't I tell you to wear more clothes when you get out of bed?" Han Jitong entered from the door and quickly walked over to cover her shoulders with a blanket.

Feng Qing'er shook her head, "I'm fine."

She looked up at Su Yunmo and forced a smile, "Thank you for making this trip."

"This trip isn't troublesome, it's the next steps that are troublesome." Su Yunmo, with her short legs, climbed onto a chair and gestured for her to extend her hand.

Feng Qing'er extended her hand, and Su Yunmo took her pulse.

Ye Ningyuan leaned against the doorframe, arms crossed, her eyes filled with amusement.

"Her condition is more serious than last time. Just drinking the medicine won't work, she needs medicinal baths." Su Yunmo frowned.

If she had the Rebirth Flower, things would be easier. Now, she could only provide conservative treatment.

"And these medicinal baths need to be taken for at least ten days without interruption." Su Yunmo looked at Han Jitong, "You understand what I mean, right?"

Han Jitong's hand on Feng Qing'er's shoulder tightened instinctively, "Don't worry, I will make sure she takes the medicinal baths on time."

Su Yunmo nodded, took out a pen and wrote a prescription, "Have someone set up the bathtub and boil hot water. Prepare a full set of the medicinal ingredients listed here. Today is the first day, and I will personally adjust the dosage."

Han Jitong quickly handed the prescription to a servant and gave instructions.

Su Yunmo went to select the medicinal ingredients.

Ye Ningyuan followed behind her, "So Momo usually does these things? Do your general father and brothers know you have such skills?"

"They don't need to know." Su Yunmo said, weighing the herbs without looking up.

Ye Ningyuan squatted beside her, picked up some herbs at random, a faint gleam flashed in the depths of her eyes, and she said lightly, "I thought Momo had a good life in the general's manor. It seems you don't trust them."

Su Yunmo frowned, "You talk too much."

"Don't like it? Fine, I'll ask a different question." Ye Ningyuan threw down the herbs in her hand, reached out, and pinched Su Yunmo's chin, forcing her to look at her.

"That woman in the room has no relation to you, why are you working so hard to save her? As far as I know, Momo isn't a child who likes to meddle in other people's business."

Su Yunmo batted her hand away, "Can't I pity her?"

Ye Ningyuan looked at her, a hint of disapproval on her face, "It's not good for children to lie."

A sharp glint flashed in Su Yunmo's eyes, and she turned her head, her gaze沉着的 looking at Ye Ningyuan, "Because I have a grudge against Ye Jingcheng. By using her to overturn the case, I can bring down Ye Jingcheng. Are you satisfied with this answer?"
