Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The moment Gu Qingxue stepped into the room, she could clearly feel the sickly aura in the air. She immediately frowned and looked around the room.
After that, she walked to the window and pushed it open to let the air in.
The cold wind was blowing outside the room. After barging into the room, not only did it carry away the illness, but it also caused the temperature in the room to drop.
Ke Ran’s heart skipped a beat. She quickly chided Gu Qingxue, “Sister! Grandfathers body is weak and the doctor said that he cannot be exposed to the wind. What if he gets a cold?!”
However, when Gu Qingxue heard this, her eyes, which were filled with displeasure, swept over Ke Ran like a sharp blade, as if they could pierce through him with a single glance. “Sister-in-law is a layman, so it is inevitable that you don’t understand. However, where did you hire a quack doctor to make you keep the windows closed? If the doors and windows are always closed, the air of illness won’t spread out, and when will granduncle’s illness be cured?”
Unless it was an infectious disease, no matter what kind of disease one had, it was very important to open the windows for ventilation. Otherwise, it would be strange if one did not feel suffocated after being in such a dull environment all the time!
Ke Ran was unable to refute her. She lowered her head and fell into silence.
She naturally did not dare to tell the truth. In fact, the doctor they had found said the same thing, but the Eldest Madam had ordered them not to open the windows and doors. As the younger generation, they naturally could not disobey.
Of course, she could not voice her thoughts out loud. Ke Ran lowered her head to hide the uneasiness in her eyes. “As expected, you’re more sensible. We were only worried that grandfather’s body would be worse after suffering from the wind. We did not expect anything else.”
Gu Qingxue’s gaze fell on Ke Ran in the distance. She did not believe a single word this woman had said.
However, she could not be bothered to argue with the woman. She looked away and walked toward the old man in front of the bed.
Even though she was mentally prepared, she was still shocked by the old man’s weak state on the bed.
The old man lying on the bed looked haggard and extremely weak. At this time, he was lying on the bed exhaling more than he was inhaling, making people feel worried.
Looking at this old man, Gu Qingxue simply could not associate him with the all-powerful great general.
Old General Qi was once known as a God of War. He was like a stabilizing force on the battlefield. As long as he was around, people would feel at ease. Many soldiers would feel at ease because of his presence, and they would be able to fight more bravely. He was such a reassuring existence, but unexpectedly, he was seriously ill today and had fallen to this point.
Old General Qi seemed to have sensed an unfamiliar aura as well. He slowly opened his eyes, which were still extremely clear, and looked towards Gu Qingxue. “Who are you?”
Old General Qi’s voice was also extremely hoarse, and Gu Qingxue’s heart couldn’t help but tremble. “Granduncle, I’m Gu Qingxue from the Gu family.
My grandmother asked me to come and see you.”
Who knew that the originally calm Old General Qi would suddenly become agitated after hearing these words? he hurriedly stretched out his hand and randomly grabbed in the air, as if he was trying to catch something.. “Elder sister, it’s elder sister? She’s better?”
