Hong Mei led Yun Jiao to the second courtyard, pulling her into a room.
Inside the room, a young lady dressed in silk was sitting by the window, resting her chin in her hands in a daydream.
There was also a maid working on some needlework under the light.
The maid quickly put down her work and stood up when she saw someone coming, and the young lady by the window also turned around.
The maid greeted them and promptly went to pour tea, while Hong Mei drew Yun Jiao over with a smile and said to the young lady, "This is the Doctor Gu I told you about, who saved my life."
The lady got up, looked Yun Jiao up and down, and smiled, "Oh, so young."
Hong Mei pointed to the young lady and said, "This is my cousin, Qing Lan, who came from the county town to attend the banquet. She'll be staying here for a few days."
Yun Jiao smiled at her, "Hello, Sister Qing Lan."
Qing Lan reached out and touched Yun Jiao's face, "You're so pretty."
