    The three-legged incense burner with unicorn patterns engraved in the dark is burning with nard. The cool fragrance mixes with the faint medicinal smell in the room and spreads throughout every corner of this huge inner room.

    Those who can serve in the house are all reliable and trusted servants. Although Qin Liyuan is young, he is steady and rigorous in handling affairs. The Xuanping Marquis Mansion has always had strict rules. At this time, they all bowed their heads and stood quietly beside him.

    The curtain in the bedroom was lifted, and the old housekeeper Meng Dong came in personally holding a red lacquer tea tray with a bowl of steaming concoction on it.

    The sound of the door curtain brought Qin Liyuan back to his senses. He put the jade pendant back into the brocade bag and placed it again under the pillow.

    Meng Dong walked closer, placed the tea tray on the small four-legged incense table in front of the bed, then picked up the medicine bowl and handed it to Qin Liyuan, "Master Hou, please take the medicine."

    The medicinal juice was pitch black, and after just a slight smell, it was already extremely bitter. Qin Liyuan took the medicine bowl, raised his head and drank it all.

    His eyebrows were motionless and his face was unimpressed.

    Immediately, a servant came forward with a teacup and helped him rinse his mouth, and then served candied fruit. Qin Liyuan raised his hand and waved it away.

    The old housekeeper raised his head, glanced at Qin Liyuan's pale face, and frowned slightly. It should be said that the master had just woken up from a serious injury and met another guest, so he should have rested long ago, but he really couldn't hide this matter.

    "Uncle Dong, what's the matter?" Qin Liyuan asked.

    Qin Liyuan knew this old housekeeper who had taken care of him since childhood. He must be hesitant about something, and it was about him.

    "This old slave will report back to the Marquis," Meng Dong bowed and replied respectfully.  The young master respected him, but the old butler was never complacent and did his duty as a servant. He paused and then continued: "The Madam and the Second Master heard that the Marquis had woken up and came to visit him. They are waiting now.  Side hall."

    The news about Jiang and Qin Er has actually lagged behind. Qin Liyuan was awake this morning.

    "It's all the old slaves. If the old slave hadn't ordered people to spread the news, the wife and the second master would not have come." The old housekeeper was very upset. He did not expect that there would be guests, which would delay the master's rest.

    The front yard of the central hall belongs to Qin Liyuan alone, and the fence is very tight. If the news is suppressed, it will never be spread. Meng Dong guessed that it was almost done, so he spread the news.

    "Uncle Dong, how can I blame you?" Qin Liyuan smiled and reassured the worried old housekeeper.  This is the truth. It's really not advisable to hide this matter for too long. After all, we are all a family. If you hide it for a long time, it will be almost done by the time he has finished handling the matter.

    "How about I ask the wife and the second master to go back first, and then say that the marquis has rested." The old housekeeper suggested.

    "In fact, in Meng Dong's eyes, his Lord Marquis really needs to take a rest first. He took a lot of energy from receiving guests just now. The Madam and the Second Master can take it easy first.

    "No need, let them come." Qin Liyuan waved his hand. He felt that he was in good spirits and did not agree to the old housekeeper's suggestion.

    He has always been strong and healthy. Although the injury was serious this time, he had been lying in bed for many days. When he woke up this morning, although the injury had not healed, he had recovered.

    Although the old housekeeper was reluctant, he obeyed his master's orders. He looked at Qin Liyuan and felt that his master was in good spirits, so he agreed and went down.

    Qin Liyuan did not lie down. He leaned on the big pillow and closed his eyes to rest.

    Soon, a servant came in and reported, "Master Marquis, the Madam and the Second Master have arrived."

    Qin Liyuan opened his eyes and nodded, "Let them come in."

    The servants opened the curtains, and the old housekeeper personally led the people into the house. The faint sound of footsteps came to Qin Liyuan's bed.

    "Brother." Qin Lixuan bowed his hands to his elder brother.

    "Well," Qin Liyuan nodded in response, then raised his head and said to Mrs. Jiang: "Madam, please sit down. Please forgive me for my physical inconvenience and my inability to salute."

    Ms. Jiang is Qin Liyuan¡¯s stepmother. Although he doesn¡¯t call her mother, the proper etiquette must be followed.

    A servant had already brought two round stools with bulging legs and four legs and placed them in front of Qin Liyuan's bed. Jiang and Qin Er sat down.

    "You kid, if you feel unwell, just take a good rest. Why are you so polite?" Mrs. Jiang frowned slightly and said with concern.

    ??Mr. Jiang has a fair complexion, a delicate and gentle face, well-maintained, and a petite figure. She looks to be in her early thirties.

    And Qin Liyuan is twenty-two years old, with a tough face. Although he does not look old, his appearance is very majestic and full of masculinity. He is tall and slender. Sitting on the bed, Jiang can look straight at him without any effort.

    Faced with such a stepson, Ms. Jiang showed no signs of embarrassment or inappropriateness at all. Her expression was worried and her eyes were filled with concern."Mom, brother is tired. Let's go back. Don't disturb brother's rest." Qin Lixuan seemed unwilling to talk about this topic. He frowned, tugged on Jiang's sleeve and pursed his lips.

    "You kid, you are a man who is getting married, what is there to say?" Ms. Jiang said angrily, but when Qin Er said this, she couldn't stay any longer, so she stood up with her son.

    "That's it, let's go back. Shen Zhi wants to have a good rest." Qin said.

    Qin Liyuan nodded and asked the old butler, who was standing by silently, to send the two of them out.

    Meng Dong sent Jiang mother and son out of the hospital all the way before turning back.

    "Mom, luckily my eldest brother is getting better this time." Mother and son returned the same way. Qin Er was afraid that Mrs. Jiang would bring up the topic just now, so he quickly took the initiative to start another topic.  However, when he talked about this, he was still frightened, and he sighed and said, "It was really scary before."

    Changing the topic, Jiang¡¯s fair and happy face returned to normal. She smiled slightly, her smile gentle and cheerful. After a while, a soft female voice sounded.

    "Well, it's true. Your eldest brother is a lucky one." (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
