She rushed all the way to her father Ji Dongming's residence, and before she could enter, she saw a maid guarding the gate.
She recognized the maid; her name was Yan Xue, a trusted servant by Maternal Aunt Qi's side.
In the Ji Mansion, there were many maternal aunts, and Ji Dongming was particularly indulgent, taking in two or three new concubines every few months.
Even though Maternal Aunt Qi was a concubine, she was the one who enjoyed father's favor the most.
Notably, Maternal Aunt Qi was also pregnant, only ten days behind mother's pregnancy.
Now, with this maid named Yan Xue appearing here, it meant that Maternal Aunt Qi was also in the Huahao Courtyard.
Just as Ji Ruyan was about to rush in, she was stopped by the maid called Yan Xue, who held an oil-paper umbrella and smiled, "Miss, how are you! Why have you come to Huahao Courtyard so late?"
"Move aside!"
Ji Ruyan at this moment had murderous intent; this damn serving girl, just because she was younger, dared to use her larger body to block her way! It was infuriating!
"Miss, the master and Maternal Aunt Qi have already retired for the night. If you have business, please come back tomorrow."
Yan Xue was not intimidated by the young mistress before her, her tone lacking respect, and her gaze condescending and disdainful!
What did it matter if the young mistress's status was noble?
In the Ji Mansion, the presence of the First Madam and the young mistress was nothing but a formality!
Ever since the First Madam had become pregnant with her second child, the master had not once stepped foot in First Madam's courtyard.
What's more, the master had always wished for a son to carry on the Ji Family legacy, but now everyone knew that tonight the First Madam gave birth to a daughter, and the master didn't even bother to take a look!
So instead, he specially called Maternal Aunt Qi to Huahao Courtyard to attend to him.
Now, in the entire Ji Mansion, even the aunts in the Laundry Courtyard knew that Maternal Aunt Qi was the one most favored by the master!
"You get out of the way! I have business with Father, you are but a maid, and if you block my way again, don't blame me for showing no mercy!"
Ji Ruyan's hair was dripping with raindrops, her amber-like eyes staring straight at Ji Ru; although she was only six years old, her mentality was already that of a thirty-year-old.
Her soul had transmigrated, carried in Feng Tianshuang's womb for ten months before being born. Although she did not receive her father's affection at birth, it did not mean she would be so meek as to let a maid bully her!
In her previous life, she was a forensic scientist in J Province, serving the deceased by her own hands.
The work of a forensic scientist was to face corpses every day, one could say her life revolved around dealing with the dead. If asked how a deceased person died, dissecting bodies was something she excelled at.
If she were to save people in this era, without the help of modern medical equipment, how could she save them? What method could she use?
In these six years, when she was three years old, she would always quietly search through the dowry her mother brought, which contained many books on herbs. This allowed her to acquire quite a lot of knowledge on herbal pathology. Unfortunately, she only had theoretical knowledge and was unable to save anyone.
Postpartum hemorrhage, if in a modern hospital, would not be a concern at all; a simple surgery could bring someone back.
But this was a backwards era, relying only on herbs and acupuncture with nothing else.
She was now familiar with herbs, but without father's permission, she could not enter the pharmacy, nor could she prepare the Revival Soup for mother.
