Chapter 440 How did he end up here?
The scalding heat nearly burned her hand, and she quickly pulled it back, sitting up abruptly, her voice filled with panic: "Help! Help! My mother is sick!"
Hearing the commotion, Shen Qingdai quickly lifted the felt blanket covering the tent and came in from outside.
Eleven turned around quickly, looking at her pleadingly: "Sister Qingdai, come quickly! Mother is sick, her forehead is so hot."
Shen Qingdai had already walked over, and then quickly raised her hand to touch Ye Qing'an's forehead, before frowning slightly.
"It is a bit hot," Shen Qingdai said softly, then quickly comforted Eleven: "Young Master, don't worry. Miss is probably just not used to the camp being pitched on the grass. It's late at night and the dew is heavy, so she caught a chill. I'll go and call someone to invite a doctor to come and take a look."
Eleven nodded quickly: "Go quickly, go quickly."
Shen Qingdai quickly left the tent, and Shiyi hurriedly got up, climbed over Ye Qing'an off the bed, and sat down on the stool by the bed. She looked at Ye Qing'an with a worried expression, as if she was too panicked. Shiyi subconsciously tightened her grip on Ye Qing'an's hand.
While his mind was in turmoil, Eleven suddenly saw Ye Qing'an open her eyes and smile at him. Her eyes and smile showed no sign that she was ill.
Eleven was startled and was about to speak when he saw Ye Qing'an make a shushing gesture to him, and then quickly closed his eyes.
Eleven blinked and fell silent. What does Mother mean by this?
Shiyi bit her lower lip lightly, the words Ye Qing'an had spoken to him the night before flashing through her mind.
Ye Qing'an said that he needed to learn to observe carefully, so could this be a test from his mother?
With this thought in mind, Eleven calmed down a little and began to carefully observe Ye Qing'an.
Shen Qingdai had previously said that her mother fell ill because she was sleeping in a tent pitched on the grass, where the dew was heavy and she wasn't used to it at night...
But when they lived on the estate before, their thatched huts were dilapidated and could not keep out the wind or rain. In winter, the thatched huts were practically useless.
He didn't know how his mother adapted at first, but he knew that as he grew older, his mother rarely got sick.
No matter how bad this tent is, how damp it is, or how heavy the dew is, it's still better than when we were at the estate.
My mother shouldn't be sick like this...
As Eleven pondered this, he began to have some guesses, and he sat to the side, secretly making plans.
If this is a question his mother has given him, then he must perform well.
A short while later, Shen Qingdai led a middle-aged man into the tent. In this tent, the middle-aged man's attire was somewhat out of place with the other soldiers; he appeared to have a more refined and scholarly air.
"Young master, this is the camp's physician. I invited him here to treat the young lady."
Eleven hurriedly stood up and stepped aside. The military doctor glanced at Eleven before sitting down on the edge of the bed.
Standing to the side, Shiyi frowned slightly upon seeing the military doctor's reaction.
Shouldn't military doctors be more respectful? Why is this military doctor not like that?
Eleven gritted his teeth and saw the army doctor place his fingers on Ye Qing'an's wrist.
After a while, the military doctor still didn't seem to have any intention of letting go. Eleven quickly stepped forward, frowning as he asked, "Hasn't the diagnosis been made yet? What's wrong with my mother?"
The military doctor then relented, slowly withdrawing his hand into his sleeve, his expression indifferent: "Miss Ye is just too weak. She is not used to living in the camp all of a sudden, so she has some physical reactions and has caught a cold and has a fever."
"It's nothing serious." The military doctor casually took a medicine bottle from the medicine box and handed it over: "These are pills, three a day. Miss Ye, take this one first. I'll come back to check on you a little later to see if you've improved and then decide whether you need to change the medication."
Eleven looked at the army doctor with some suspicion: "Okay, I understand. I'll make sure my mother takes her medicine. Thank you."
After Eleven finished speaking, he turned to Shen Qingdai and said, "Sister Qingdai, please see the military doctor out."
"Yes."
Shen Qingdai saw the military doctor out of the tent. Eleven turned her head and stared intently at the tent door. Only after hearing the footsteps gradually fade away did she turn her head and whisper in Ye Qing'an's ear: "Mother, I always feel that this military doctor is a bit strange. Could there be something wrong with him? The medicine he gave me... should Mother not take it?"
Ye Qing'an suddenly opened her eyes and her gaze fell on Eleven's hands.
Eleven's eyes lit up with joy: "I knew it, I knew Mother was just pretending to test me."
"Mother, don't you think that army doctor is a bit strange?"
Ye Qing'an recalled the spiritual energy that had been harassing her body instead of doing anything else, and pursed her lips slightly, letting out a soft hum: "It is a bit strange."
Strange, how come he's in the camp?
How did he get here?
Were you already here, or did you just arrive today?
"Right?" Eleven was even happier when she heard Ye Qing'an say that. "So, Mother, you won't have to take the medicine he prescribed for now, right?"
Ye Qing'an took the medicine bottle from Eleven's hand, uncorked it, and sniffed it lightly. Then, a smile appeared on her lips: "It's nothing, just ordinary tonic pills, you can take them."
"what?"
Shiyi was slightly surprised and was about to say something when she saw Ye Qing'an raise her hand and throw the pill into her mouth.
Ye Qing'an naturally noticed Eleven's expression, and simply raised her hand to pat Eleven's head: "Eleven, you are very observant, very good, Mother is very satisfied. But next, Mother must put on a grand show."
"Just remember that Mother is actually fine and there's nothing wrong with her."
Eleven bit her lip, a slight panic in her heart: "Mother, what grand opera are you going to put on, Mother?"
Ye Qing'an's lips curled up slightly: "You'll find out soon enough."
As the mother and son were talking, Shen Qingdai walked in.
Seeing that Ye Qing'an was awake, she was not surprised. She simply said, "After I sent that physician away, a soldier came over and said that he was a personal guard of General Gu and asked that physician to go to the main camp to report."
Ye Qing'an responded, "Gu Hai is suspicious by nature and doesn't like me anyway, so his actions were within my expectations."
In the main camp, Gu Hai squinted at the military doctor in front of him: "How is it? Did you examine that young lady from the Ye family? What's wrong with her?"
