Translator: asassin
After that day, Ah Zhao hasn’t seen Huo Xian Xian in a long time.

However, Huo Wan Wan visits her from time to time.

Once Huo Wan Wan had the scented tea and was surprised by its good taste.

Hearing from Ah Zhao that it was made by the Sixth Lady, Huo Wan Wan’s expression was quite complicated, with a bit disdain, a bit hatred and full of indifference.

Ah Zhao… Ah Zhao decided that was too complex for her to understand.

“So, it comes from that yard.” Huo Wan Wan put down the tea cup and didn’t touch it again.

Obviously, the Fourth Lady and Sixth Lady aren’t on good terms.

Ah Zhao wanted to hear the gossip but changed her mind since there were only so many reasons for rivalry between two women who shared a husband so there weren’t much to ask about.

Huo Wan Wan comes to invite Ah Zhao out. Ah Zhao doesn’t want to go.

Having known Ah Zhao for some time, Huo Wan Wan knows though her sister-in-law is the wife of a general, she is quite endearing. Though Ah Zhao has married, she is more fragile than Huo Wan Wan, which makes it easier for Huo Wan Wan to build a close relationship with Ah Zhao.

She comes over and holds Ah Zhao’s hands. “Sister-in-law, let’s go. The flowers are in bloom…”

“I said I didn’t want to go!” Ah Zhao suddenly gets rid of her hands.

Huo Wan Wan is shocked and looks at her with widened eyes.

Ah Zhao is a bit shocked by herself as well.

She doesn’t think she would act so violently. For the past few days, she has grown more and more short-tempered.

“I’m sorry, Wan Wan…”

“Then don’t!”

Huo Wan Wan recovers from the shock. Before Ah Zhao finishes her sentence, she stamps her feet and rushes out, clearly angry.

Annoyed, Ah Zhao rubs her forehead. Is it haven’t seen Huo Jun over ten days that makes her so irritable?She thinks.

Right now, Lv Zhu knocks on the door and tells her the Fifth Miss is here.

Huo Xian Xian is here to bring her the knots.

“My mother said she promised you knots wishing for safety, sister-in-law.”

Ah Zhao hasn’t seen Huo Xian Xian for a while. It seems Huo Xian Xian has become quieter during this period. After she has said that, she stands there without a word.

Ah Zhao picks up a knot and smells it. “Why does this smell different from those I got before?”

Huo Xian Xian answers: “My mother would immerse threads used to make knots in flower essence. One essence smells different from the other.”

Ah Zhao smells it again. It is a faint yet lingering smell. Good.

However –

“I like the old smell.”

Looking at the knots hanging over her bed, she doesn’t know what that smell is, but it is refreshing. After smelling it, one can’t forget it.

Sometimes, she even feels that smell drifts in her dream.

“Well, my mother doesn’t teach me about it so I don’t know.” Huo Xian Xian lowers her head shyly.

The two look at each other in silence. Soon, Huo Xian Xian takes her leave.

After Huo Xian Xian leaves, Ah Zhao feels a bit sleepy. Leaning on the chair, she drifts off to sleep.

However, that becomes big trouble.

The general’s wife goes into a coma, her body remains feverish.

When Huo Jun gets the message, in a meeting with his subordinates, he jumps on his feet.

“What happened?” He gets his coat and asks the person beside him as he puts it on.

The man who comes with the message is just a servant in the manor who doesn’t even get a chance to see the young lady so naturally he doesn’t know the details.

Besides, now that the general looks so stern, his sharp eyes like those of an eagle as if he is going to eat someone alive, the servant feel too nervous to speak fluently:

“I, I don’t know. Lv Zhu asks me to take you the message, General. She has sent for a doctor and another doctor who knows Western medicine.”
