After exiting the palace, Li Qingling rubbed the little boy"s head and asked him where he lived. They sent him back.

The boy shook his head. No, he"ll go back.

How could Li Qingling let the little boy walk back alone? She insisted on sending him off, but the little boy could not refuse.

"We"re not familiar with the capital, so let"s go where you want to go, alright?"

The little boy nodded shyly.

The carriage took about half an hour to arrive at a shabby alley. The little boy hesitantly climbed down from the carriage and spoke with a sense of inferiority.

Li Qingling walked down the carriage and held his hand, smiling as he asked her to go sit with him at his house.

The little boy raised his head in surprise and looked at Li Qingling. He bit his lips and asked his if she really wanted to go.

"Don"t you want me to go? "Hmm?"

"What we welcome is … "That"s right …" His house was so shabby that he was afraid she would despise it.

half squatted and looked him in the eye. In the past, her family was very, very poor, and she lived in a shabby thatched cottage.

The little boy looked at Li Qingling in disbelief and asked softly. Really?

Had Madame lived in a shabby hut?

He couldn"t believe it.

"Why would big sister lie to you?" "My sister"s hometown was in a village. It used to be very, very poor."

Looking at Li Qingling"s expression, the little boy believed what she said, "Fu … If Madam doesn"t mind, you can … You can come to my house. " When he grew up, he would definitely make a lot of money and build a big house for his mother.

"My name is Madam and my name is Big Sister." Li Qingling corrected the boy, "Let"s go, take big sister to your house for a drink."

The little boy nodded with a reddened face and led Li Qingling and the rest through the alley. They arrived at a shabby house at the end of the alley.

"Mom, I"m back." The little boy was anxious, so he quickly pushed open the door and ran inside.

Li Qingling told Liu Zhimo and the others to stay in the courtyard. She followed them into the room and saw that in the grey room, a skinny woman was coughing intensely, as if she wanted to cough out her lungs.

The little boy anxiously helped her sit up and lightly patted her back.

Li Qingling saw that there was boiling water on the table with his short legs, so he went over to pour himself a cup of water. He also dripped two drops of water quietly, "Little Zhi, come and give your mother some water."

The little boy thanked Li Qingling and took the bowl. He placed it next to his mother"s mouth and fed it to her.

The woman slowly drank the boiling water with her son"s hand.

It was unknown if it was because she was too thirsty or what it was like, but she felt that the water she drank this time was a little different. It was sweet and refreshing, and after drinking it, she felt very comfortable.

When she recovered her breath, she would have the chance to ask Li Qingling who he was.

Just by looking at Li Qingling"s clothes, one could tell that her family situation was very good. Why would she come to her house? Could it be that his son had gotten into trouble?

Li Qingling looked at her, smiled, and introduced himself, then explained the situation again.

After she finished listening, the woman was about to greet Li Qingling.

Li Qingling pressed her hand down slightly, letting her go.

"Thank you Madam." The lady took two breaths and apologized to Li Qingling.

Her body was in such a terrible condition that it was unknown when she would …

If it wasn"t for her son, she wouldn"t be able to hold on for so long.

"Little Zhi, where"s your father?" Li Qingling sat on a rocking stool and raised his head to ask the little boy.

His father died two years ago.

He felt very guilty for not being able to fulfill his father"s promise and take good care of his mother.

Li Qingling paused, then looked at the woman, and asked her, what disease did she have? Have you taken any medicine?

The woman smiled bitterly and said, "Where do I get the money to pick up medicine at home?"

Their family was poor and they were about to run out of food. How could they have the money to pick up medicine?

Furthermore, given her poor health, it would be hard to tell how many pills she would have to take. If she had the money, she might as well save it for her son.

If she were to leave one day, at least her son would still have money. He would not be hungry.

Unfortunately, his family was so poor that they could not even keep the pot boiling. Not even a single copper coin was left.

The boy raised his head and looked at Li Qingling, wanting to say something but hesitated.

Seeing the little boy"s expression, Li Qingling asked him what he wanted to say.

The little boy bit his lower lip and mustered up his courage to speak, "Sister … Madam, can you. Could I invite … Your grandfather. Help my mother look after her sickness? " After saying that, he hurriedly added, "When I have more money in the future, I will return it to you. Really …" He was afraid that his mother would leave him like his father.

He only had his mother left …

"Alright …" Under the boy"s perturbed gaze, Li Qingling smiled and nodded, "You don"t need to say anything, I also plan to have my grandfather help your mother treat her sickness."

After saying that, the little boy stood up, and suddenly kneeled down, kowtowing to Li Qingling thrice, he choked with emotions, and said, "Thank you Madam."

His actions gave Li Qingling a big fright, she immediately extended his hand to help the little boy up, and said with a stern face, a man has gold under his knees, he should kneel to the heavens, not his parents, and not casually kneeling to others, do you understand?

No one had ever said such a thing to him. The little boy pursed his lips and nodded heavily.

Li Qingling sighed in his heart, rubbed the little boy"s head, then looked towards the woman, saying that she had a good son.

When she saw them, she thought about her previous life and felt even more pity for them.

The woman looked at the little boy dotingly, then turned to Li Qingling and coughed twice. "This humble woman knows very well that I can"t cure her, so there"s no need to trouble this lady"s grandfather. Her body was already in ruins. How could she be cured?

She didn"t want to owe Li Qingling this favor.

Li Qingling frowned, if he did not see, how would he know? Don"t you want to see Zhi Zhi grow up?

If he lost the will to survive, no matter how good of a doctor he was, he wouldn"t be able to treat it.

Hearing this, the woman"s eyes reddened. How could she not want to see her son grow up? She did not know how to think about it, but her body …

Li Qingling patted the woman"s shoulder, telling her not to think too much into it, until she let her grandfather take a look first.

After he finished speaking, he stood up and walked out with large strides. When he walked to the courtyard, before he could speak, Old Man Xue had already waved his hand, telling her not to say anymore. He had heard everything, she was going in to see what kind of illness Little Zhi Niang was suffering from?

Li Qingling acknowledged and said that he would be troubling his grandfather.

"If you have something you want to beg me for, then do it grandpa. If you have nothing to ask, then ask me Old Man Xue." Old Man Xue glared at Li Qingling snappily, "I"ve never seen someone as realistic as you." With a haughty and spoiled snort, Old Man Xue strode into the room.

Li Qingling rubbed his nose and stuck his tongue out at Liu Zhimo, then turned and ran back in, "Little Zhi Niang, this is my grandfather. He"s a doctor, if I let him help you take a look he"ll know what"s wrong. With her grandfather"s medical skills and her spirit water, he should be able to save Little Zhiniang.

"Mother, Madame"s grandfather is an imperial physician. He can definitely cure you."

Imperial Physician?

The woman had not thought that there would come a day where an imperial physician would treat her illness. Her eyes were red as she thanked him over and over. She wiped away the tears at the corners of her eyes. She was truly too excited.

With the imperial physician here, she felt more confident that she should be able to recover.

Old Man Xue sat on a chair by the side and asked the woman to extend her hand out.

After reading, Old Man Xue said that he would mix the medicine and get someone to send it to them. He also told the woman to eat the medicine on time three meals a day, and slowly recuperate.

"It"s too... Imperial Physician, this humble woman … Will it really get better? "

"With me here, you can rest a.s.sured that I will make you completely better."

Hearing this, the woman couldn"t help but burst into tears. She had been working hard all this time, so she had never thought that she would get better one day. Now that she heard these words, she didn"t know what to say. Only by crying could she vent the emotions in her heart.

Seeing that his mother was crying, the little boy couldn"t help but cry as well.

Li Qingling and Old Man Xue looked at each other before both of them walked out, leaving some s.p.a.ce for the mother and son to adjust their mood.

After a while, the little boy walked out with red eyes, knelt down, and kowtowed three times in silence to Old Man Xue.

He had given his mother hope, and he had thanked him from the bottom of his heart.

Right now, he was still young and was unable to repay him. When he had a chance to shine again, he would definitely repay him for saving his life.

Old Man Xue lightly patted the little boy"s shoulder and said, "Good child."

"Big brother, don"t cry." The little girl saw the little boy"s red eyes. She took out a candy from her purse and handed it to the little boy. "Give it to big brother. It"s sweet." Don"t cry after you eat TangTang.

The little boy looked at the little girl and took the candy from her hand, thanking her.

Little Jun shook her head with her pearly teeth and said, "You"re welcome."

Since her brother had helped her, she should thank him.

Looking at the sweet smile on the little girl"s face, the little boy couldn"t help but laugh.

He liked this beautiful sister of his …

After coming out from the little boy"s house, she sat in the carriage with a solemn expression on her face, not laughing at anyone who tried to tease her.

"Xiaoxiao, what are you thinking about? Do you want to tell us about it? " Li Qingling smiled and asked as he reached out to pinch her cheeks.

The little girl looked at Li Qingling, then looked at Mr. Luo and the others, frowned and said, "Big brother"s house is very dilapidated."

She had never seen such a run-down home.

So this is what the little one wanted …

Li Qingling and the others suddenly realized something, and took the chance to teach this person a lesson.

Tell her why she can live a good life and live in a big house?

Let her be grateful and reciprocated.

After the little girl heard it, she nodded her head heavily and asked Li Qingling if she could fix her brother"s house.

"Little one, you have to remember, if you are going to give us fish, why don"t you give us fish …" Following that, Li Qingling once again a.n.a.lyzed this logic to let her know why he was doing this.

The little girl responded as if she understood something.
