Forced to be a concubine, I went to my husband's place to become a wealthy merchant

Chapter 122

Cuilan was the first person to notice that something was wrong with Ye Xi. Although she was a little slack, she was Ye Xi's personal servant after all, so how could she ignore Ye Xi?

When she went to greet Ye Xi as usual, she found that Ye Xi did not respond at all. She went up to see that Ye Xi's face was red. After touching her, she realized that Ye Xi had a high fever, so she hurried to report to Wei Jue.

Wei Jue originally wanted to dampen Ye Xi's arrogance and let her know that he didn't have to have her and that she shouldn't take herself too seriously.

He thought that if he ignored the other party for a few days, the other party would compromise. After all, he had some understanding of the character of those servants in the yard.

But what he waited for was not the news that she came to make peace, but the news that she was sick, so he hurried to Ye Xi's yard to visit her.

As soon as he entered the room, he found that the door was broken, and asked sternly: "Why is the door broken?"

Cuilan, who was standing aside and being asked, trembled and replied shakily: "Sir, you broke it by kicking it before."

Wei Jue had obviously forgotten about this matter. He was stunned for a moment, then seemed to remember that this was indeed the case. He then continued to question, "Then why don't you ask someone to repair it?"

Cuilan and the servants knelt down quickly without saying a word, their bodies shaking continuously.

How dare they say it? At first they thought it was the adults' intention, so they didn't ask anyone to repair it; later they thought the girl had fallen out of favor, so they didn't bother to make any arrangements.

Wei Jue obviously thought of it as well, and laughed: "With so many servants, if they can't serve one master well, what's the use of you?

Come! Drag these slaves away, give each of them ten strokes of the cane, and then sell them off."

"Sir, spare your life, spare your life."

"Sir, spare my life."

Cries for mercy kept coming and going.

"My lord, please don't sell me for the sake of my reporting the incident..." Cuilan knelt down and begged for mercy.

Wei Jue glanced at Cui Lan and said, "You have twenty pounds, so stay." Then he turned and walked into the inner room to see Ye Xi.

After just a few days of not seeing each other, Ye Xi has lost a lot of weight. Her originally chubby face is now thin and feels rough to the touch.

Wei Deyuan felt so painful that he touched Ye Xi's forehead and found it was really hot. He didn't know how long it had been like this. What if his brain was burned?

He shouted to the outside: "Xue Jiu, why hasn't the doctor come yet?"

"I'm coming, sir." Xue Jiu replied from outside the door.

"Let him in!"

……

After the examination, the doctor prescribed some medicine and asked Wei Jue to arrange for the maid to wipe Ye Xi's body with warm water regularly, in order to reduce her temperature as soon as possible.

After making the arrangements, the doctor told me to take my medicine on time and then left.

Wei Jue asked the new maid to boil the medicine while he wiped Ye Xi's body.

Before giving Ye Xi the medicine, he had someone bring her a bowl of porridge. He guessed that Ye Xi probably hadn't eaten for a long time, and he was afraid that drinking the medicine rashly would hurt his stomach.

He fed her some porridge and then gave her medicine. He did not ask anyone else to do anything for him that day.

Ye Xi's illness has not yet recovered, but Wei Jue cannot always stay in the mansion to take care of her. As a newcomer, he has a lot of things to do and he has to be on duty.

"Sir, someone outside the Command Headquarters wants to see you. He says..." Xue Jiu pondered for a moment, "He says he is Miss Ye's brother."

Xue Jiu reported to Wei Jue.

Although Wei Jue was in the office, Ke Xin had already flown back to the mansion, wondering whether Ye Xi's illness had improved today.

When he was daydreaming, he was suddenly interrupted by Xue Jiu's voice. After he heard it, it took him a while to react.
