Chapter 3 Unconscious
Mu Qingqing didn't wake up until she reached the Mu Mansion.

Chu Hanchen was kind enough to send the person back in a carriage. Although he didn't see the real person, the gossip had already spread.

The maid asked the doorman to pass on the message quickly, saying that the owners of the Mu Mansion were waiting anxiously. The person hasn't returned so late, and there are reports that bandits have appeared nearby. How can they not be worried?

The third child was the most unstable. He paced back and forth and said, "Dad, Mom, I'm going to go out of town first!"

General Mu glared at the third brother, "Prince Han personally replied to the letter, saying that he was involved in suppressing bandits. Do you think you are better than Prince Han?"

Even General Mu doesn't dare to say that he can compare with King Han, let alone those brats.

"But, Dad, are we just going to wait like this?"

The third brother felt aggrieved and was worried about his younger sister.

The boss is on the side.

The eldest brother, Mu Jingyi, 20 years old this year, sat aside and looked out the door from time to time.

The second child, Mu Jingyang, is 18 years old this year and is the calmest. He holds a teacup and drinks tea, but his eyes look towards the door from time to time, which is enough to show his unrest.

The third child, Mu Jingchao, was 14 years old. He was a thief and often got into trouble with his younger sister, but he loved Mu Qingqing the most and would support her and take punishment for her.

Sitting in the main seat were General Mu and Madam Mu, who had a very good relationship.

Mu Jingyi and Mu Jingyang got married and each gave birth to a boy.

The whole family, from the parents to the brothers and even the two sisters-in-law, all dote on the little sister Mu Qingqing.

The two sisters-in-law sent people to ask several times.

Finally, the doorman ran in from outside, "Master, Madam, and other young masters, the young lady is back!"

"You're back? Where are you? Why don't you come in?"

Madam Mu quickly stood up and walked out.

"Madam, the young lady was frightened and fell into a coma. She hasn't woken up yet."

When Madam Mu heard this, her eyes were filled with heartache, and she yelled at her sons, "It's all your fault. Your sister is so young, and you let her come back by herself."

The three sons stood there getting scolded, feeling guilty.

My younger sister went out with her little sisters from Beppu and didn't let them follow her because she thought it wasn't far and with Xiao Si, who is quite skilled in martial arts, following them, there shouldn't be any problem.

Who would have thought that the young lady from that family suddenly had something urgent to do and came back before reaching the temple.

The second brother was shivering, "I will order someone to investigate this matter. If it's an accident, that's great. If it's... humph, I will definitely make it difficult for them."

As everyone walked out, they were talking. Mu Jingchao didn't care what they were saying. He just wanted to see his little sister.

As expected, when they arrived at the front yard, they saw the carriage in the middle of the yard. Mu Jingchao jumped onto the carriage and saw his little sister gritting her teeth and her cheeks flushed. The little maid beside her was almost crying.

"Third Master, the young lady has a fever."

Mu Jingchao picked up the person carefully. He was only two years older than his sister, but he was a head taller than his sister and had more strength, so it was effortless for him to pick up his sister.

After jumping off the carriage steadily, his sister was carried over by Mu Jingyi. General Mu handed the badge on his waist to the second son, "Jingyang, please ask the imperial physician to come over quickly."

"Yes, Dad!"

Mu Jingyang had already signed a horse, jumped on it, and galloped out.

Madam Mu followed Jing Yi to her daughter's yard.
As soon as he put her on the bed, he immediately leaned over and touched his daughter's forehead.

"It's so hot, go get some water and some wine."

"Yes, ma'am!"

A maid in Mu Qingqing's room hurried to fetch water and asked the kitchen to make ginger soup.

The little maid knelt on the ground, her eyes fixed on her mistress.

There were only a few women left in the room, and Madam Mu wiped Qingqing's body.

Asking the maid about what happened, "Madam, these bandits attacked us as soon as they met, and all of us were hacked to death. At that time, Sister Lian protected us, and she was also injured in the end. I was afraid that they would hurt Miss, so I locked her in a box." "When they were taken into the bandits' den, Sister Lian did not complain about the humiliation and jumped off the cliff to commit suicide. I was able to escape because of my mediocre appearance, and then I waited for King Han."

Thinking of Qinghe, the little maidservant was filled with grief. If it weren't for protecting the two of them, Sister Lian would have been able to escape.

Madam Mu's eyes were filled with tears. If it weren't for these two little girls, her Qingqing would have suffered even more.

"Hurry up and get up. I see you're injured too. Go get some care!"

"Ma'am, I'm fine, I want to see Miss!"

"Go ahead. Your young lady will take a while to wake up. The doctor will be here soon. She will be fine in a while."

Qinghe nodded, tears streaming down her face. She was one year older than the young lady, who treated her very well. Because she was an orphan, Qinghe was chosen by the young lady to be her maid.

Although the young lady was a little naughty, she would always be given a share of any delicious food.

When he stole the chicken leg, half of it went into his stomach.

In the past, other maids always bullied her because she was young, but the young lady would stand up for her.

Madam Mu persuaded the people to leave and wiped her daughter's body again and again, but it did not reduce her temperature.

After a while, Madam Mu couldn't help but yell outside, "What are you doing? You can't even invite a royal doctor? If you don't feel sorry for Qingqing, I do!"

It was completely silent outside.

General Mu wiped the sweat from his forehead and glared at Jing Yi. Jing Yi obediently left to see when his second brother would come back.

General Mu replied in a muffled voice, "Madam, I will be back soon. The boss has gone to urge him."

His wife was a tigress. When she was young, she even followed him to the battlefield and killed the enemies without mercy. It was not until Qingqing was born, a soft and tender baby girl, that her gentle side began to show.

"What are you standing there for? Get out of here and take a look."

General Mu didn't dare to say anything and immediately went out obediently.

Finally, the imperial physician arrived and the men breathed a sigh of relief.

Madam Mu stared at the imperial physician's actions. From the look of his expression, she wished she could replace him.

Seeing the imperial physician let go, he couldn't help but ask, "Imperial physician, how is my daughter? Why hasn't she woken up yet? And why hasn't the fever subsided?"

The imperial physician took out a piece of paper and began to write a prescription. "Miss Mu was frightened and caught a cold. Don't worry, I'll prescribe a fever-reducing prescription. Pay more attention tonight. It's easy to have a relapse in the early morning. If the temperature is still high, boil another dose!"

"When will Qingqing wake up?"

"Let's wait and see tomorrow morning. If he wakes up, then everything will be fine. If he still doesn't wake up, I'll try another prescription."

"Thank you, doctor."

"Mrs. Mu, you're too polite."

Madam Mu wanted to send the imperial physician out, but was refused by the imperial physician, "Madam, please stay. You should take care of Miss Mu!"

Naturally, her own daughter was more important, so Madam Mu ordered someone to buy medicine and asked the small kitchen to boil it quickly.

Mu Qingqing was very conscious, but she couldn't wake up. Sometimes she felt like she had returned to her previous life, when her parents and brother died. Sometimes she seemed to be in that narrow wooden box, feeling suffocated and frightened, but unable to get rid of it.

Mu Qingqing had nightmares all night, mumbling "I'm sorry" and "Save me" under her breath.

Mrs. Mu was so distressed that she picked out her husband and several sons one by one and scolded them.

After the medicine was ready, Madam Mu fed it to her daughter.

Mu Qingqing opened her eyes in a daze, and when she saw her mother, she immediately burst into tears. It was her mother, so gentle. She really wanted to spend more time with her mother.

"Mother...mother..."

The sound is small.

Madam Mu felt so distressed that she held her in her arms, rocking her gently like she did when she was a child.
