Lee Miaoyin's expression turned slightly cold. She turned around and took out a medicine box from the bed. From the box of bottles and jars, she took out a white porcelain bottle and handed it to Xiaotao. "Don't speak nonsense. Hurry up and apply the medicine for me."

Lee Miaoyin's red and swollen face happened to be illuminated by the light from outside the window. The three bloody marks caused her to forget about Third Young Master Qi for a moment, her eyes became hot, and she almost started crying again as she hurriedly used hot water to clean up the Miss's face, and then carefully washed the wound with Miss's self-made disinfectant. Only then did she apply the cold ointment on her face, and she did not forget to scold Yang Suyun, "She clearly wants Miss to disfigure you out.

She had been sold by her parents as a slave for Lee Mansion, and had even received quite a few slaps on her face. However, she had never received a slap like the young miss, and it was clear that Yang Suyun was jealous of the young miss's beauty, which was more beautiful than Lee Miaoyu's.

Lee Miaoyin snorted coldly, "Of course she did it on purpose. Who can you hide her little schemes from?" It was likely that everyone present knew of Yang Suyun's evil intentions.

It was just that no one was willing to stand on her side. Before, there hadn't been, and now there wasn't. Even if there were to be, it would all be a sham in the future.

Xiaotao kept the ointment back into the medicine box and said with a face full of resentment, "This wicked woman, she really has the guts to do it. I really want to tear off her face and see how she can still be pampered in front of Master."

Although the future of their children was important, what was most important to them was the love of a man. Only the love of a man could truly allow them to gain a foothold in the mansion, and their children would be able to bask in the light as well. Once a man's love was gone, they would lose their status to a lowly slave.

The corner of Lee Miaoyin's mouth curled up as a dim light flashed in the depths of her eyes. With a smile that was not a smile, she said, "No need for you to trouble yourself. Her face will rot very soon."

Xiaotao looked confused as she asked curiously, "Why is her face rotting so quickly?"

Lee Miaoyin shushed her lips with a finger before giving a mysterious smile. "You will know when the time comes. This is a chance that cannot be revealed."

As expected by the master and servant duo, dinner was not served. This was a punishment they were already used to. According to the current situation, not to mention the fact that they didn't have any dinner tonight, they probably wouldn't even bring them dinner in half a month.

In another dining hall in Lee Mansion, from the Old Granny and Lee Chengji, down to Madame Xu, her mother, Yang Suyun, and their three children, all gathered together, talking and laughing merrily, bustling with noise and excitement, as if they were seeing off Li Yingzhu, who had climbed onto a high branch and was waiting to be married off.

Fortunately, the master and the servant were used to this kind of treatment. Since no one brought food to them, they cooked their own meals. The small courtyard had Xiaotao's own earthenware stove and a small iron pot on the shelf, making it their simple kitchen.

Lee Miaoyin was sitting at the door, looking at Xiaotao who was busy and unable to put her hand in the fight. She was the one who had dragged Xiaotao down.

Could it really be as Xiaotao had said, that she had lost her sense of propriety because of Qi Hongxuan?

Xiaotao cooked two large bowls of spicy noodles with chopped onion. The fragrance of the food temporarily made her forget her worries. There were some things that were useless to her no matter how much she wanted to do. It would be better to just let the situation develop.
