The peasant girl has a private space, and her husband is handsome.

Because the fourth branch of the Luo family was not favored, they lived in a relatively remote courtyard.

The maid Ling'er carried the tea into the room, startling her so much that she dropped the tray and shattered the teacups on the floor.

To her surprise, the fourth wife, who had been seriously ill and in a coma, was able to stand up and walk.

Previously, the fourth madam had been critically ill for more than half a year, lying in bed unable to get up. The doctor said that even if the King of Hell came, he couldn't save her, and they had already told them to prepare a coffin.

Unexpectedly, the Fourth Madam was able to stand up and walk.

Ling'er recalled the fish-skin peanut that Miss Mingzhen had asked her to take home yesterday, which was touched by Miss Su.

The fourth wife ate those peanuts last night and woke up today.

It must be because of Miss Su's good fortune that the Fourth Madam's illness was cured!

Good heavens! It turns out the legends were true. Miss Su really is a lucky star; even the peanuts she touched had such miraculous effects.

Fortunately, she was very careful yesterday and didn't lose the peanut, otherwise it would have been such a pity.

If the Fourth Madam were to pass away, how lonely Miss Mingzhen would be! So it's wonderful that the Fourth Madam has woken up.

Although Miss Mingzhen was born of the principal wife, she was not favored by the old master of the mansion. When the fourth master went to serve as a county magistrate in another place, he only took his beloved concubine and illegitimate daughter with him, leaving his legitimate wife and daughter in the mansion.

It can be said that if the Fourth Madam dies, there will be no place for Miss Mingzhen in the Luo family mansion.

"Fourth Madam, are you feeling alright?"

The fourth wife, who was always good-tempered, spoke in a gentle and weak voice: "I'm fine. I was sick for more than half a year before, and it was thanks to you and Mingzhen that I was able to recover."

Ling'er dared not take credit and quickly explained, "Fourth Madam is thanking the wrong person. Your recovery is not due to Ling'er, but to Miss Su... Madam recovered because of Miss Su's good fortune. Everyone in the capital is saying that Miss Su is a great lucky star."

Ling'er recounted the story about the peanuts in great detail.

After hearing this, the Fourth Madam was extremely grateful to Su Qianqian.

At this moment, Luo Mingzhen also arrived.

She stayed up until midnight last night cooking ginseng for her mother, so she got up a little late today.

Before Luo Mingzhen even entered the house, she heard Ling'er's voice and asked curiously, "Ling'er, who are you talking to?"

Her mother has been unable to speak for over half a year. Who is Ling'er talking to? Could it be that a guest has come to her mother's room?

Luo Mingzhen lifted her right foot and stepped over the wooden threshold, immediately seeing her smiling mother.

Oh my, Mother actually woke up.

With tears in her eyes, Luo Mingzhen stepped forward and hugged her mother tightly, refusing to let go.

"Mother, Miss Su is indeed a lucky star. I asked Miss Su to send you a blessing, wishing you a speedy recovery, and sure enough, you got better."

Ling'er was unaware that Luo Mingzhen had secretly fed the Fourth Madam the small ginseng that Su Qianqian had given her.

The household is currently running out of money, and even the old lady's medicine has run out. Therefore, Luo Mingzhen did not dare to let anyone in the household know about the ginseng, for fear that if it were discovered, Vice Minister Luo would take the ginseng away for the old lady to take.

She waited until very late last night, sent Ling'er to bed, and then secretly brewed ginseng soup in her mother's courtyard for her mother to drink.

As expected, the effect was excellent. My mother was able to get out of bed after only drinking it once. Of course, it's also possible that it wasn't due to the ginseng, but rather because Miss Su sent my mother her blessing for recovery.

Whatever the reason, it's all thanks to Miss Su.

Luo Mingzhen was extremely grateful and decided that she would serve Miss Su like a slave from now on, even at the cost of her life.

She hugged her mother and felt that her mother was extremely thin, like a bamboo pole.

Fortunately, she's alright now. With proper care, she'll definitely be able to gain the weight back.

Luo Mingzhen instructed, "Ling'er, quickly go and invite Doctor Xu over to take Mother's pulse."

"Yes, Miss."

After cleaning up the broken pieces of porcelain on the ground, Ling'er ran away.

After taking his pulse, Physician Xu looked extremely puzzled.

Previously, the Fourth Madam's pulse clearly indicated that she was on her last legs, so why did she suddenly recover?

It's truly amazing! Who exactly treated the Fourth Madam's illness? What kind of miraculous medicine did that person use on her?

Given the Fourth Madam's current health, she could easily live to be seventy or eighty.

He was already the most renowned doctor in the capital, yet he was helpless in treating the fourth wife of the Luo family's illness.

So who exactly is this divine healer, possessing such extraordinary medical skills? I really want to meet this miracle doctor!

"Madam, you have fully recovered. May I ask who treated you?"

At this moment, Physician Xu's eyes were filled with fervor, and he couldn't wait to find out who that person was so that he could become that person's apprentice.

Thinking about what Ling'er had said earlier, if it was really as Ling'er said, that it was Miss Su who saved her, then the Fourth Madam couldn't just cause trouble for Miss Su.

Therefore, it's best to keep this matter a secret.

Thinking of this, the fourth lady smiled and explained to Doctor Xu, "I dreamt of a deity who gave me a magical fruit, and I was cured when I woke up."

Doctor Xu knew the other party was probably lying. Since they were unwilling to tell the truth, there was nothing he could do but take his leave.

Luo Mingzhen was overjoyed to hear from Doctor Xu that her mother had recovered, and quickly instructed Ling'er to see Doctor Xu out.

"Ling'er, please see Doctor Xu off for me. When you come back, remember to bring a bowl of porridge from the main kitchen for Mother."

"Yes, miss."

After Ling'er saw the doctor off, and with no outsiders in the room, Luo Mingzhen carefully explained the situation to her mother about Miss Su giving her ginseng.

"...Mother, I still have a little ginseng rootlets left. When it's late at night and everyone is quiet, I'll secretly use those ginseng rootlets to make soup and bring it to you to help consolidate your condition."

The fourth madam shook her head. "No, please don't waste such precious things. Doctor Xu said I'm completely cured. Keep those rare items safe and put them away carefully. They'll definitely be of great use in the future."

The fourth wife recalled the past six months of serious illness and bedridden condition, and felt utterly hopeless.

Although she was unable to speak at the time, she was mentally alert and her hearing was normal.

She knew that Mingzhen had pawned many things in the house and had hired many doctors for her, but all of them said they couldn't cure her.

At that time, the Fourth Madam felt utterly desperate.

The elders in the mansion are all biased. If she dies, what will happen to her Mingzhen? There's no one she can entrust with her care.

Especially in the last few days, the doctor gave her a final notice, saying that she didn't have much time left.

So Mingzhen stayed by her bedside every day, crying her eyes out, which broke her heart. Unfortunately, no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't open her eyes, speak, or even move her fingers.

Fortunately, she has recovered and is now able to protect her daughter on her own.

Therefore, the Fourth Madam was especially grateful to Miss Su for saving her life and allowing her to live and protect her daughter.

The fourth wife wanted to do something for Miss Su, but she had neither money nor good things to offer.

For someone as remarkable as Miss Su, it would seem unworthy to send her some low-class trinkets.

The fourth wife couldn't think of a way to repay this favor for a moment, and sighed, "What should we do? We're afraid we can never repay such a great debt of gratitude in our lifetime."

Luo Mingzhen said to her mother, "Mother, Miss Su does things without expecting anything in return. We'll just do what we feel is right. In a few days, after you recover, we'll go to the White Horse Temple outside the city to burn incense and pray to Buddha, hoping that Sister Su will have a smooth life."

Soon, the news that the fourth mistress of the Luo family had recovered from her illness spread throughout the capital.

Many people had heard that the fourth wife of the Luo family was about to die, but unexpectedly she recovered. They all wanted to know what kind of good fortune the fourth wife of the Luo family had received.

Several families with seriously ill members sent people to inquire about the situation.

Among them was Lord Xue from the Ministry of Rites.

Lord Xue's father was seriously ill, and the doctor advised him to give up treatment. So he came to the Luo residence in person to help his father.

Fan Dajiang walked to the study door and reported, "Master, Minister Xue from the Ministry of Rites has arrived with gifts."

"Quickly, quickly invite Lord Xue in."

When Vice Minister Luo heard that a colleague had brought gifts to his door, he was very excited.

It had been so long since any of his colleagues had visited that he had come to think that he, as a vice minister, had been abandoned by everyone.

Moreover, Fan Dajiang said that Lord Xue came with gifts.

We can pawn the gifts later to get some money, give some of the monthly wages to the servants in the mansion, and then make some new clothes for Mingfang.

The seasons are about to change, and the girls in other households have already started making clothes for the new season. If others have something, Mingfang must have something too.

Luo Shilang guessed that Lord Xue must have come to curry favor with him because he knew that he had climbed up to the Murong family.
