When Aunt Cui regained consciousness, the room was already lit.
The dim light from the candle flickered by the bedside. The dim light from the candle had added some gloominess to Aunt Cui's sallow face.
She leaned back against the headrest, gasping for breath. Sue, who was standing beside her, worriedly offered water.
There was a clang in the room.
Aunt Cui slapped the teacup away and threw the pillow on the floor, her gaze sharp as a knife.
Su-Er was so frightened that she did not dare to breathe. She trembled and shrank back.
"It's past dinner time, right?" After venting, Aunt Cui was powerless to lie down, her eyes fixed on the roof of the tent.
"In reply to Aunt, I …" It's already past, but the Madam has already instructed the large kitchen that as long as Aunt wants to eat something, you can go and get it done. "
"She should show her kindness everywhere!"
When Aunt Cui heard this, she scolded him bitterly before coughing uncontrollably. Suo E looked at her flushed face and could not bear to do so. She turned around and poured water for her again, then helped her up and fed it to her lips, "Aunt, let's stop with the medicine. I can't use it anymore. If I use it again, my body will really have a problem. "
Aunt Cui sipped her tea, knowing that her plan had failed.
Since it was already past time for the meal, Master Shen must have come to the yamen, but he did not come over to take a look. Not to mention him, even her aunt didn't bring anyone into the courtyard. All of this was evidence of how ridiculous she was, as it was a complete waste of her power!
Su-Er saw that she was in a good mood and tried again to persuade her, "Aunt, it's really time to stop the drug. You know how it is being passed on to you from the outside. They … They all say that your consumption is contagious and no one dares to come near us. Currently, the people in the courtyard can't leave either. Madam has to arrange for someone outside to pass on the message three times a day … "
As soon as Suo'er finished speaking, she felt a sharp pain on her hand. She looked down and saw that Aunt Cui's nails had dug into her flesh. Soo'er immediately broke out into a cold sweat.
"— So that's why the bitch asked for the Second Miss?! What about the doctor? What did the doctor say! I'm not suffering from consumption! "
"Aunt …" "Aunt." Su-Er endured the pain, her eyes reddened. "Because the symptoms of you coughing up blood are too similar, and I can't say for sure. I only gave the prescription to eat for a few days and then left! So, you can't use that medicine anymore, you have to get better quickly, otherwise … Otherwise, Madam might send us all to the Manor! "
That was the most terrifying thing.
After being sent out of the manor, who would think of them as master and servant? Only then would they be unable to turn their backs.
As soon as the words left her mouth, Aunt Cui started trembling.
Her original intention was to show Master Shen how she looked while she was ill, so as to gain sympathy. Afterwards, she would have someone secretly send cough medicine to the Feng family to frame her. If that was the case, Master Shen would definitely take pity on her. However, before everything could be implemented, she had already suffered a crushing defeat.
His daughter had been taken, and he had continued to be banned.
Aunt Cui felt as if the whole world had collapsed. She felt dizzy and fell weakly onto the bed, unable to muster any strength.
It was at this moment that the door of the yard was opened. Su E was overjoyed. Sure enough, she heard footsteps approaching.
Could it be that the master had pitied their aunt and had come to visit them?
However, Su-Er's excited heart was instantly splashed with cold water.
The one who entered wasn't Master Shen, but Zhi-er, who had made Aunt Cui so angry that she fainted. Behind Zhi-er was a woman with her hair in a bun and her mouth full of blood.
Sue saw the woman's face clearly and fell to the ground. Aunt Cui's vision was blurry, and she could barely make out the people in front of her. She forced herself to sit up so that she could see who it was.
At this moment, Zhi'er had already tossed a small medicine bag onto her bed. With a look of disgust in her eyes, she asked, "Does Aunt recognize this item?"
Su-Er looked at that familiar paper bag, trembling so much that she couldn't even speak. Zhi-Er didn't care whether she admitted defeat or not. She lightly continued, "It doesn't matter if Aunt doesn't recognize him. This woman has already admitted to it, and our wife said that since Aunt is taking so much trouble, she must be extremely disgusted with him." The madame said that if you gave the concubine two ways, the first would be to accuse the concubine of murdering the mistress, and tell the master to abandon you. Second, Aunt is going to take her leave and go to the Manor to recuperate. "
"No matter what the aunt chooses, please consider this matter for the second lady, she is a child of the Shen family. Even though Madam is angry, she will not implicate a child. Naturally, she will take good care of him. "
Seeing how young she was, Zhi-er spoke in an orderly manner, her words poking at Aunt Cui's heart. She was both frightened and frightened, unable to utter a single word.
What worried her the most had indeed happened.
But how did they find that medicine? Could it be that this woman betrayed her?!
This damned old thing, did he not want the life of his family?
In her terror, Aunt Cui transferred all her hatred onto that old woman. She had previously been tortured, but now she was staring at her with hatred, so she couldn't come up to her in one breath.
However, Zhi`er didn't have the patience to wait for her for too long. "Aunt, don't overthink things. There's someone who knows how to use medicine by your side. I happen to know how to use ostracism. "It's better if you make a quick decision …"
Aunt Cui's mind buzzed at Zhi-er's urging. With trembling lips, she finally opened her mouth and said, "I'm going to the Manor. I hope Madam will keep her promise and not make things difficult for my daughter." After Aunt Cui finished speaking, she closed her eyes and couldn't hold back her tears any longer.
After finishing her chores, Zhi-er quickly took her away. Before she left, she gave Aunt Cui a complicated look. She hoped that she was wrong. These pills did not come from that person. That person should not dare to stay in the Yongping Mansion. She would ask him to investigate when San Ye returns.
When Zhi-er left, Old Madam Shen received the letter very quickly. Aunt Cui told her to tell her that she was afraid that the people in the estate might be ill and that she was going to the northern suburbs to recuperate.
Old Mrs. Shen was a little surprised at first, but when she thought about it, she couldn't tell if it was consumption or not.
He agreed immediately and allowed Aunt Cui to go to the manor overnight.
Before a trick could cause a storm, Xiu Ying and his mother had already joined hands to suppress it. Hearing that her big brother had left the clan, Xiu Ying's uneasy heart since her rebirth finally calmed down a little.
Aunt Cui was the main culprit that had messed up her life with her mother. Now that she was far away from the Shen family and had gradually forgotten about her fickle father, she was afraid she wouldn't be able to turn the tides.
What happened in his previous life would probably never happen again.
Xiu Ying's heart relaxed, and the smile on her face relaxed. She thought, if her mother had been so domineering in her previous life, then she wouldn't have died in depression. Aunt Cui clearly wasn't a match for her mother.
— Not a match.
This knowledge suddenly appeared in her mind, causing her to furrow her brows.
In his previous life, when he was still at the Yongping manor, his mother seemed to have been suppressing Aunt Cui. Her mother truly disagreed. Was it because the entire Shen family had gone to the capital, and she had arranged a marriage?!
Xiu Ying's eyebrows jumped up as she thought about this. The doubt that had been on her mind for a while had once again surfaced. That's right, why was her mother unwilling to follow them to the capital, and not mention anything about her maternal grandfather's family?!
