Thinking of her son's abnormality, she thought to herself, Could it be that he came for her?
"He's really handsome. Whose daughter is he?" Madame Bai asked, pretending to be casual.
Madame Qi put down the teacup and smiled lightly, "It's Li Assistant Prefectural Magistrate's main wife."
Li Assistant Prefectural Magistrate? The one where the old master went to eat wine last time? When she came back, the master said that Li Assistant Prefectural Magistrate's daughter saved her son's life and even told her not to talk about it anymore. At the time, she didn't think too much about it and only worried about her son's injuries.
"Greetings, Madame Qi. Madame Bai." Lee Miaoyin happily passed the medicine bottle in her hands to the nanny serving Madame Qi.
Madame Bai stared at Lee Miaoyin and laughed: "How did Miss Li know that I'm Madam Bai Mansion?"
Lee Miaoyin smiled lightly and said gently, "I've just met Young Master Bai. He followed Madam to visit him. I'm sure he's innocent."
Madame Bai nodded her head secretly. Her son had indeed come to look for her. She looked at the girl again. Her words were natural and unrestrained, and she did not have the pettiness that a small family raised.
Lee Miaoyin then turned to Madame Qi, "Madam, Miaoyin is going home today. That medicine just now was enough for three months. Sofia will send someone to deliver the rest of the medicine."
Madame Qi was reluctant to part with him. She had three sons and a daughter, and her three sons had different personalities. They all disliked being close to her as a mother. Her daughter had already married, so she rarely went back to her parents' home.
Lee Miaoyin reminded Xiaotao about the things she should pay attention to when eating before leaving the residence with Xiaotao.
As soon as Lee Miaoyin left, Madame Bai teased, "This kind of girl is really rare. From the looks of it, are you planning to take her in as your daughter-in-law?"
Madame Qi smiled as well. "I'd like to as well, but unfortunately, this lady doesn't seem to have any feelings for Xuan'er. Besides, Xuan'er's marriage isn't something that we can decide."
Qi Hongxuan, who had stopped outside the door, had a pale face. In the end, he was unable to enter the house, so he left with a face of desolation. Perhaps she already knew all of this, so she rejected him from thousands of miles away.
Not long after Madame Bai left, Master Qi returned to his residence. When he found out that Lee Miaoyin had left the Qi Manor, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
"That girl saved my life. How are you going to thank her?" Madame Qi asked.
Master Qi passed the robe to the servant, smiled and said, "That little girl is also interesting. I gave her a hundred thousand taels of gold, but she rejected me straightforwardly and gave me a thousand mu of land. She didn't want any of it, saying that as long as I give her a promise, when she needs it in the future, I will lend her a hand.
Madame Qi smiled, "What a clever girl. She is still young now, and her wealth and property will be taken away by her elders. In the end, it's all for naught. I might as well make a promise from you."
Master Qi also laughed, "That's right, I heard from Master Chiang that the newly opened Renhe Hall on West Street is her business. Everyone only knows that it belongs to Master Chiang, but who would have known that the real owner behind the scenes is Lee Miaoyin."
Madame Qi had been ill for a long time and did not know anything about Renhe Hall. When she heard her husband's words, she was also shocked, not only did she possess astonishing medical skills, but she was also proficient in business, and had a kind heart.
