The most difficult female boss in history

Chapter 26
Xiao Qinghe didn't dare to say anything more, she dragged her sore legs and walked out, and when she reached the door, she leaned against the door, turned her head and asked Mother Zhao in a low voice: "Is Seventh Sister sick too?"

Madam Zhao looked at Jin Wang and helped Xiao Qinghe slowly move back into Xiao Qingshuang's room with a puzzled face, she suddenly thought of something, and hurried into the room: "Ma'am, Miss Seven is ill, if Miss Fifth is sent Go to the general's mansion and ask the old lady of the general's mansion to take care of her for a few days, the old lady will not refuse."

Mrs. Wang frowned, and sent Fifth Sister over there?
Seeing that Mrs. Wang was thinking about this question, Mother Zhao said: "As long as the fifth girl enters the general's mansion, she will be able to recuperate her body, and Madam will have a reason to go to the manor to visit... With the decoction, there is always a way to analyze it. of medicinal materials, maybe you can also find medicinal residue..."

Mrs. Wang was a little moved after hearing this. This is a good way, but she was pushed back just now, so she has no face to come to the door.

Besides, the eldest aunt is not such a talkative person, and she acts properly enough, even if she agrees under pressure, I am afraid that the fifth sister will not bring too many servants there.With Fifth Sister's thoughtfulness, she may not be able to get the prescription from the General's Mansion.And she didn't want Fifth Sister to be suspected of stealing the prescription.

Stealing is a taboo for a woman's reputation.

Zhao Momo saw through Mrs. Wang's thoughts, and said again: "If Ma'am is worried about Fifth Miss going to the General's Mansion alone, then let Third Miss accompany her to take care of the mansion."

Only then did Mrs. Wang turn her anger into joy. If something happened, she could pin everything on the third sister. The third sister who had ruined her reputation happened to be sent to the uncle's mansion to be a concubine.

"Go and call the third sister over again."

After listening to Mrs. Wang's words, Xiao Qinghe felt a little embarrassed, but she didn't dare to refuse: "Daughter obeys." Xiao Qinghe also showed a relaxed smile on her drooping face.

Sure enough, her reminder woke up Nanny Zhao.

Entering the General's Mansion was a turning point for her.She knew very well in her heart that due to the grievances between her aunt and grandmother over the years, her aunt would not let go of the opportunity to demolish her grandmother. She didn't mind being a weapon used by her aunt to attack her, and she only thought about her aunt and grandmother. Seventh Sister could see that she was in a difficult situation and give her a hand at the critical moment.

The next day, Xiao Mingzhu got up early in the morning, waiting for the lobbyist of the waiting mansion to enter the mansion.

Unexpectedly, the person who came first was not from the Xiao family.

"Madam Lu is here?" Xiao Mingzhu laughed after hearing Juan'er's words: "Madam Lu came at the right time."

Aunt Qiao said, "What's your plan, girl?"

Xiao Mingzhu winked mischievously: "The secret is unspeakable."

Aunt Qiao patted her lightly, "Miss, don't talk nonsense."

Zhixia came in in a hurry, her expression was not very good, Aunt Qiao sent Juan'er out, and then asked, "What's wrong?"

Zhixia lowered her voice: "Just now, Sister-in-Law Wang took the opportunity of entering the mansion to deliver medicinal materials to tell me that Miss Waiting Five is coming to the General's Mansion in a carriage."

"What?" Xiao Mingzhu stood up suddenly. She had a hunch that she must be coming to the General's Mansion.I just don’t know if it’s Xiao Qingshuang or Zhang Nannan who’s coming!

Aunt Qiao pressed Xiao Mingzhu down: "Miss, don't worry, I'll wait at the gate of the mansion. Miss Xiao Wu can handle it when she comes over."

"Be careful." Xiao Mingzhu firmly grasped Aunt Qiao's hand and told her, "Don't be careless, Auntie, then Xiao Wu is dangerous."

Aunt Qiao didn't know why Xiao Mingzhu said that, but she was extremely vigilant.

In the main courtyard, Mrs. Xu welcomed Mrs. Lu into the side hall, with an apologetic expression on her face: "Did the old sister hear something and came to persuade me?"

Mrs. Lu was stunned for a moment, nodded, and looked embarrassed: "I really have no face, but I have to come. I hope my sister will forgive me."

After she returned from Falin Temple that day, she saw the Fifth Prince sitting in the mansion waiting for her.She originally thought that the fifth prince just wanted her not to tell Concubine Xian what happened today, but she didn't expect that besides making that request, the fifth prince also asked her carefully about her relationship with the general's mansion and about Xiao Mingzhu's past.

"I have exchanged handkerchiefs with Mrs. Xu, Mrs. Xiao from the General's Mansion for many years." Mrs. Lu told the truth.

She saw that the fifth prince's eyes were a little brighter.

The fifth prince has fallen in love with Xiao Mingzhu?This was the first thought that ran through her mind.

No, no, absolutely not!This was the second thought that came to her mind.

Mrs. Lu didn't think Xiao Mingzhu was bad, she knew very well that Xiao Mingzhu's current situation was too complicated, and she was only the daughter of a third-rank General Zhaowu. How could he agree to let her be the fifth concubine?

Unless the emperor has no intention of making the fifth prince a prince, such a marriage will be accepted.

But if Xiao Mingzhu was to be the fifth prince's side concubine, then Xiao Huai'en would be the first to refuse.

"Then Xiao Mingzhu was born with an insufficiency, and the imperial physicians said she would not be able to raise her first year?" The fifth prince asked with bright eyes.

On the way back, he often asked people around him about the general's mansion, and he heard a lot of rumors from the past.

Is the person he saw really the eldest daughter of the Xiao family?

The eldest girl of the Xiao family has problems, that wild girl doesn't look like a person who won't live until one year old, she is healthier than him.

This sentence is more curious than pity, and it shakes Mrs. Lu's previous thoughts.

Well, Han Yunzhao just wanted to know what kind of family could raise a vigorous lady like Xiao Mingzhu, and also wanted to find a chance to avenge that scoop of revenge without being reprimanded by his mother and concubine.He didn't expect that his vague words would make Mrs. Lu think so much.

After the fifth prince left, Mrs. Lu became more and more unable to guess what the fifth prince was thinking, so she called the eldest daughter-in-law Mrs. Zheng over to discuss it.Of course, she didn't tell Zheng Shi one by one about her physiognomy, but said lightly that she saw the fifth prince outside the courtyard where Mrs. Lu was temporarily staying.

Mrs. Zheng was slightly taken aback, and then asked her quietly, "Mother, tell me, does the second prince want to inquire about the old genius doctor from the young lady of the Xiao family?"

By the way, she was disturbed by the abnormal behavior of the fifth prince, and indeed she ignored that the second prince was also present at that time.

Could it be that, as Zheng said, the second prince wanted to seek medical treatment, so he wanted to find Xiao Mingzhu to find out the old genius doctor's preferences, so as to get the old genius doctor's attention?

It is indeed possible. The second prince's health has indeed been deteriorating in recent years.

It was no secret in Kyoto that Xiao Mingzhu fell into the eyes of the old genius doctor. The relationship between the fifth prince and the second prince was very good, and it was normal for him to accompany the second prince.In a moment of childishness, the fifth prince climbed over the wall to peek at how Xiao Mingzhu, who was suffering from insufficiency, was recovering now, and that made sense.
