Reborn as a concubine's sister, the eldest lady went crazy
Chapter 20: Mrs. Gu's Unlucky Day
"Wait a minute," Xu Yixing was sharp-eyed and could tell at a glance that this was the Nine Revolutions Resurrection Pill used in the past. How could his father be willing to give the only pill in the mansion to Xu Yiyan? It seemed that he still cared about her.
"Where did this medicine come from?"
Siqin felt a little guilty when she heard this question, and her eyes kept wandering: "This... was obtained from the Seventh Prince."
"Hmm?" This answer was not what Xu Yixing expected.
"Miss, you don't know that the medicines prescribed by the doctor these days are completely useless. Your high fever has not subsided. I really have no other choice but to sneak out of the mansion and beg for these two medicines."
Xu Yixing was horrified. It seemed that Xu Yiyan had been in contact with the Seventh Prince for a long time, otherwise even Siqin would not be able to go to the Prince's Mansion to ask for medicine.
"He gave you two?"
This medicine is very expensive, and the Xu family only has one. It is said that even if the patient only has one breath left, it can bring the soul back to the patient. The Xu family's medicine was given to my father when he was on the battlefield. The emperor was afraid that the old general would be injured. He never used it.
"Yes, I fed you one this afternoon, and you woke up now, so it seems to be effective. His Highness said he only had two left, so he asked me to come back and give them to you. If they are not enough, he will find another way."
Tsk! Such a valuable thing, you gave me two at once? It's not enough, you want more?
Could it be that Lu Anyuan likes Xu Yiyan? It's just a pity that Xu Yixing has no memory now, and doesn't even know how they met, so he dare not make any mistakes.
"Why don't you ask dad for it? We have some at home."
Siqin lowered her head. Not to mention that she couldn't see the master at all, even if she did, how could she beg him with the mistress stopping her?
Xu Yixing felt sad when he saw Siqin was silent. It was hard to say whether his father would give this thing to Yiyan. Alas, poor child! It was only after he really became Yiyan that Xu Yixing realized that many things were not what he had seen before.
Be it Mrs. Gu, Mrs. Gu, or even my father, it turns out they all have two faces...
"Put this away. I'm ready. I'll return this valuable item when I have the chance. By the way, you said the Madam hasn't come back yet? Si Hua, go to the front and ask around. If there's any news, report back to me."
Siqin put the medicine away, and Sihua went to the front yard to watch as requested. Xu Yixing leaned against the bed and drank the medicine prescribed by the palace doctor. Only then did he remember to ask about the follow-up of the Duke's Mansion that day.
"By the way, what happened when I asked you to watch the beams that day?"
"You are amazing!" Siqin took out the jade pendant from her inner garments after a long time of stealth, and handed it to Xu Yixing. "Why do the people in the eldest lady's house like to put things on the beams?"
Seeing the jade pendant, Xu Yixing recalled the argument that day and couldn't help but have red eyes again. No wonder no one protected Nanny, she didn't use the jade pendant to mobilize anyone, but kept it for her!
"Miss, are you crying?"
"No. Siqin, I will keep this jade pendant. If anyone asks, just say it's my mother's legacy. Don't say anything else. Got it?"
"it is good."
This cover is very good. After all, Xu Yiyan's mother doesn't have much money and can't afford expensive accessories. No one will be suspicious if she says this.
"When I recover from my illness in the next two days, let's go to Jingxi Temple together."
"But you can't go to the mansion until the end of next month, so you should just rest and take care of yourself first."
"No, I must go early. The reason is that I can say that I recovered from my illness thanks to the blessing of the Bodhisattva, and Madam will not disallow it."
"Well, the food sent from the kitchen is cold. I will go and heat it up for you."
Xu Yixing nodded and did not refuse. He had been ill for these days, and although he was now well, he was still very weak and needed to recover quickly.
In the evening, while Xu Yixing was eating, he heard Si Hua running in: "Miss! This is so funny!"
Xu Yixing pretended not to know what happened and asked with a smile, "What are you so happy about?"
"Madam Gu scolded her and fined her half a year's salary!"
Siqin's reaction was even bigger than Sihua's: "Really? What's the reason? Tell me quickly, hahahahaha!"
Si Hua cleared his throat and began to describe the situation vividly: "Today, my wife went out to worship. Everything was fine when she was out. When she came back in the evening, it suddenly started to drizzle, and the car was a little muddy on the mountain road.
Originally, the cart was just going a little slower, but who would have thought that the two horses pulling the cart suddenly had diarrhea for some unknown reason!"
Si Qin suddenly remembered the Second Miss's previous instructions and looked fiercely at Xu Yixing. The latter was unmoved and just listened to Si Hua quietly.
"There was no village or shop in the area, it was dark, it was raining, and there were few people. The lady couldn't find a place to rest. She could only ask the servant to come back quickly, get a new carriage to pick her up, and sit in the carriage and wait.
But when the servant came back, he found that all the horses used in our house were sick and weak. He did not dare to use ordinary horses to fool the lady, so he waited until the young master came back and used the young master's horse before taking it back.
At this point, Si Hua picked up a handkerchief and covered his nose, as if to cover up some smell.
"Oh my, I was waiting at the front door just now. When Madam came back, she smelled... Tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk!"
Siqin and Xu Yixing covered their noses at the same time, they could already imagine the smell.
Hehe, Gu had been waiting in the carriage for at least an hour. She was sitting in the carriage, and she could probably hear the two horses farting in front of her. The farts might splash directly onto the curtains, and she didn’t know if they would hit her... It made her happy just thinking about it!
"Then, why was Madam Gu punished?"
Si Hua was still recalling Gu's face which looked like horse manure at that time, and she quickly said, "Oh, please continue."
"After returning, the lady locked herself in her room, repeatedly asking for water to take a bath, and ordered the person who was responsible for feeding the horses to be beaten to death. Do you know who that person who was feeding the horses was?"
Siqin and Xu Yixing once again shook their heads in sync.
"It's Sister Cai! Nanny Gu's daughter-in-law. Nanny Gu was anxious now, begging for mercy and making excuses. Madam was already angry, so she scolded Nanny Gu and sent Sister Cai to work outside the second gate. Although she was not allowed to come in to serve, she still gave Nanny Gu face."
"Why do you call her Sister Cai? Are you familiar with each other?"
"Everyone in the mansion calls her Sister Cai. She is easy-going and pretty. Everyone likes to joke with her."
Humph, isn't she beautiful? If she wasn't beautiful, she wouldn't have made Mrs. Gu's youngest son obsessed with her, and he wouldn't have tried so hard to marry her into the family.
