She looked at Xiao Rou, who was clearly forcing herself to appear strong, with lifeless eyes and an alarmingly red face. Mei Siyu disregarded her protests and forcibly settled her on her own bed, covering her with a blanket, and said in a commanding tone: “Go to sleep quickly. If you want to sleep with me in the future, just sleep in this bed. It’s big enough for three people anyway. You can’t possibly sleep on the ground and not catch a cold.”
Xiao Rou obediently lay on the bed, her almond eyes filled with tears, emotionally saying: “Miss, you’re too good to Xiao Rou. It’s my fault that I’m useless and now you have to take care of me.” As she spoke, tears began to flow uncontrollably. Mei Siyu felt a strange sensation and unconsciously had tears on her own face as well.
Mei Siyu tucked Xiao Rou’s blanket corners, lowered the gauze curtain, and only left after confirming Xiao Rou was asleep. What endurance! Even with such a high fever, she still tried to take care of her. Despite being younger, she knew how to care for others – truly, a child from a poor family grows up fast.
”Meal for Mei Fei,” the palace maids said coldly while serving dishes to the veiled Mei Siyu. After serving, they were about to leave when Mei Siyu called out: “Could you please bring a royal physician? My maidservant is ill.”
A tall palace maid said sternly: “Reporting to Your Highness, royal physicians only attend to masters, not servants. If there’s nothing else, this servant will take her leave.” With that, they ignored Mei Siyu’s anger and walked towards the door.
”How despicable! No humanity at all, not caring about life or death. If you won’t help me call a physician, I’ll go myself!” As she spoke, she had already left the Yangfeng Hall and was heading directly to the Royal Physician’s Court.
”Who are you? Is this somewhere you can just enter?” Doctor Li said rudely.
He disliked random people entering his domain. One look at this girl’s reckless manner irritated him, as her intrusion completely disrupted his experiment, hence his impatient tone.
