The general's wife is pretending to be weak again

Chapter 444

Back at the General's Mansion, Mu Qingyu asked Mo Zhu and Miao Xiang to sleep for a while.

She slept until the afternoon and didn't get up since last night. She hadn't eaten anything since last night, and she was even more hungry after waking up.

Mo Zhu hurriedly asked the kitchen staff to serve some dishes.

"By the way, what happened to those dishes last night?" Mu Qingyu asked, it was someone else's wish anyway.

"It won't be fresh in the morning, and the maids will be down." Mo Zhu replied.

Mu Qingyu didn't speak any more, picked up the bowl and chopsticks and started eating.

After eating, Mu Qingyu remembered something again, and reminded him: "By the way, don't forget to check about those medicine dregs."

"Yes, the servant has kept it in mind."

Xu Shi's servants in the General's Mansion have all been mentioned, and they are loyal to Mu Qingyu.As long as Mo Zhu asked, they all told what they knew without hiding anything.

Therefore, Mo Zhu could easily investigate many things.

"Ma'am, the maidservant asked clearly. Aunt Li went out to buy the medicine by herself and cooked it quietly behind everyone's back. The maid who was sweeping the room ran into it by chance. Seeing that she was found, Aunt Li looked very panicked, like It's like...doing something bad. Then Aunt Li told the servant girl that she has a hidden disease and she doesn't want others to know, so she begged the servant girl not to tell it." Mo Zhu said.

"So that's it, Miao Xiang, come with me over there." Mu Qingyu said.

"Could it be that Ma'am wants this servant to treat Aunt Li?" Miao Xiang said reluctantly, "But Aunt Li took Madam's place last time, so this servant does not want to treat her."

Mu Qingyu smiled and said, "When did you become so petty? Besides, it's not just for her, it's for me. If she gets sick in the general's mansion, if it spreads out, maybe others will say that I'm a doctor." treated her harshly."

"Ma'am is right, it's the servant who wants to go wrong."

So Mu Qingyu took Miaoxiang to the guest room.

Since what happened to Wang Er's mother, those people in the guest room have become more honest.

I ran into Wang Er's mother on the road, and Wang Er's mother was even more honest when she saw Mu Qingyu.She hesitated for a while, but still avoided Mu Qingyu and went in the opposite direction.

Miao Xiang said in a low voice: "This servant thought she was so powerful! It's just that she is strong on the outside."

Mu Qingyu smiled, and went straight to Aunt Li.

Aunt Li didn't expect Mu Qingyu to come over, she was so startled that she couldn't know what to do, she faltered and couldn't speak.

"Don't be nervous, Auntie. You are the general's elder and also my elder." Mu Qingyu sat down first after entering the room, and Aunt Li sat down opposite her hesitantly.

But in front of Mu Qingyu, she couldn't show the posture of an elder at all. Instead, she shrank her neck and hunched her back as if she had done something wrong.

Mu Qingyu had inquired about the details of these people, and knew that Aunt Li had done something wrong to Li Zhao in the past.

She is extremely curious now, what exactly did Aunt Li do back then?

"Are you still used to living here?" Mu Qingyu asked.

"Get used to it, very used to it."

Mu Qingyu leaned forward, staring at Aunt Li with bright eyes.

"Auntie is lying. If Auntie is used to it, why would there be such a large bruise under her eyes? She must have not rested well. My maid knows a little bit of medical skills, so let her feel your pulse." Mu Qingyu said.

Aunt Li was stunned for a moment, she didn't expect Mu Qingyu's words to change so quickly, she muttered, "I've always been in good health, so you don't need to feel my pulse."

"Auntie, you're welcome."

Miao Xiang walked up to Aunt Li with a tough attitude, "Ma'am, stretch out your hand, this servant will take your pulse."

Aunt Li looked at Miaoxiang, then at Mu Qingyu, so she stretched out her hand and rolled up her sleeve to expose her wrist.

Miao Xiang put her hand on it to feel her pulse, and after a while she withdrew her hand, showing two rows of white teeth with a smile, "Madam is in good health."

Mu Qingyu exchanged a few words with Aunt Li, and then went back with Miaoxiang.

Before she had gone far, Zheng Rou called to stop her.

"Sister-in-law," Zheng Rou said with a smile, "the last time we cooked for sister-in-law, did sister-in-law like it?"

Mu Qingyu said truthfully: "That night I went out on business and didn't eat. I failed you all."

Zheng Rou couldn't hide her disappointment, but she quickly covered it up again.

"That's what we apologized to my sister-in-law. It's a pity that my sister-in-law didn't eat it. Let's make some more for my sister-in-law." Zheng Ju said.

"Don't worry, I didn't take that to heart."

"It's okay, it's a piece of cake for us to cook. Sister-in-law just wait."

Zheng Rou's kindness is hard to turn down, Mu Qingyu no longer refuses.

"Then I'll prepare the menu now." Zheng Rou left happily.

"Miss Zheng is really enthusiastic." Miao Xiang said with emotion, and she also developed a good impression of Zheng Rou.

Mu Qingyu continued to go back with Miao Xiang.

Aunt Li is in good health and has no minor ailments, so why does she cook medicine behind her back?Unless the boiled medicine is not for yourself to drink.

Mu Qingyu ordered Mo Zhu to send more people to watch Aunt Li's every move.

Gao family.

Ever since King Xian lost power, the Gao family has been forgotten by the sage, and will gradually be buried in dust.

Once Mr. Gao died, Gao Ting was devastated, and the whole Gao family was in a mess.

Without the prosperity of the past, the Jin family and Gao Ruohua could no longer enjoy the treatment of their masters. After dismissing many maids, they still needed to do some things by themselves.

"Mother, I don't want to live this kind of life anymore. Is it true that our family has no money?" Gao Ruohua was tortured by this kind of life.

Jin's emaciated a lot, "If it was there, I would have taken it out."

"Big brother is a big man, so it's not a problem to stay at home all day. Mother might as well persuade my brother to go out and find a job so that the family can earn a little money." Gao Ruohua persuaded.

If they go on like this, they might sell their house and live on the street.

As soon as Gao Tingzhi was mentioned, Jin's chest heaved violently, as if he couldn't catch his next breath.

Gao Ruohua was so frightened that he quickly comforted Jin Shi, and it took a while for Jin Shi to recover.

"Oh, every time I go to talk to your brother, I always get into a fight. He didn't even want his mother because of that foxy girl." Jin said sadly.

She has always been the proudest and most obedient son, seeing her now is like meeting an enemy.The hatred in Gao Tingzhi's eyes made Jin feel heart-piercing pain every time he thought about it.

Now that her family is in decline and Gao Ting protects her, it is even more difficult to send Yang Wanyi away.

"Mother, hold brother back, I'll drive that foxy girl away!" Gao Ruohua said angrily.

"is this okay?"

"Why not? Even if we can't drive her away, we can't let her give birth to the scourge in her stomach. Otherwise, my brother won't care about us!"

Jin pinched the prayer beads on his wrist, "Okay, I'll listen to you and try."
