Chapter 389 You May Get Stroke Because of the Drag!
When Qin Wanru came over, Qin Yuru’s objects were moved here one by one.
The Yulan Pavilion, which had been neglected for a long time, became lively at once, and the servant girls and old maids who had been relocated to other places also returned.
The yard with weeds was cleaned up again, and Qing Xue and Hongye took a lot of servant girls and old maids to clean the inside and outside of the yard completely.
Madam Di had originally had two close-fitting servant girls called Meiya and Meibao, but they were also sent away afterwards. This time, they returned again and gained the identity as the principal maids again.
Qing Xue originally came with the identity as the principal maid. Hongye was also a principal maid after she entered the mansion.
There were now four principal maids around Madam Di, coupled with Nanny Zhou, a few little servant girls, and rough old maids. Therefore, the whole yard became much more lively.
Following Qin Yuru was her two close-fitting principal maids Mei Xue and Meiyan. She actually had two close-fitting principal maids else, but she used to use Mei Xue and Meiyan, so those two stayed in her Yalan Pavilion.
Nanny Huang also followed her here. Although she didn’t have much manpower, she occupied some main rooms.
“Second sister, I’m not feeling well, and my mother is bothering you!” Qin Yuru looked at Qin Wanru coming here with pale face, and her whole body was not very energetic, being held by two principal maids.
There were tears in her eyes, and her eyes were red and swollen, indicating that she cried heavily just now.
“Big Sister, rest assured and have a rest first. You would be tired at night!” Qin Wanru smiled slightly and said.
Qin Yuru pretended to be so weak, which was very different from her appearance yesterday! It seemed that she made great efforts to stand up now.
“Then second sister and I would take turns to rest. Second sister came during the day and I kept mother at night. we had to make mother wake up!” Qin Yuru said with sorrow, as if she was really sorrowful.
“Big Sister, go to rest!” Qin Wanru said calmly.
After talking with Qin Wanru, Qin Yuru holding the hands of two servant girls to her temporary room, actually left this matter to Qin Wanru!
“Miss, First Miss is the biological daughter of Madam Di, why is she so relieved …” Yujie looked angrily at Qin Yuru’s back and said.
“She will come out!” Qin Wanru said calmly, turned and walked to the main room. She walked into the main room, and turned into the inner room. Madam Di lay on the bed straightly without any sound.
She created a great disturbance yesterday. Qin Wanru didn’t look at Madam Di. At this time, Madam Di was lying there quietly. She found that the Madam Di in front of her was quite different from the one in her memory, who seemed to be a different person.
In the last life, before she died, she saw Madam Di once. At that time, she was a noble Madam entering the palace. She was gorgeously dressed. The whole person looked young and energetic. It seemed that she was only a beauty in her thirties. When she saw Qin Wanru, she sneered coldly and raised her mouth, then she left with servant girls.
She appeared to be the noblest at that time as if she didn’t know Qin Wanru. She even didn’t glance at her.
Today, Madam Di seemed to be 50 or 60 years old. There was white hair on her head. Her face was thin and ugly with a scar. It should have been the one left last time she tried to ruin herself, when she spilled the powder on her face.
The medicine contained non-scarring powder. So although it got well now, it left a bump that’s different from the skin color.
There was a white scarf tied around her neck. The whole person was lying there without a trace of energy, as if there was no breathing. Only the quilt on her chest was slightly undulating, showing that she was alive.
Seeing Qin Wanru coming in, Nanny Zhou was astonished and hurried forward to salute.
Qin Wanru sat down on the chair in front of the bed, glancing at Nanny Zhou. A gentle smile appeared at the bottom of her eyes. “Nanny Zhou, what does the doctor say?”
“This… I don’t know!” Nanny Zhou said with a bowed head.
“Nanny Zhou, you are an old maid around Madam Di. When something like this happened, my father didn’t punish you, and you still stayed with Madam Di. This was because of your loyalty to Madam Di. But this kind of thing happened only once. If Madam Di confronted this again, Nanny Zhou must die for her. You can also be regarded as an old maid in the mansion. You should know about the means of my father! ”
Qin Wanru’s eyes flashed slightly. Although her tone was mild, the meaning in this sentence was definitely not mild.
Nanny Zhou said hurriedly, “Second Miss, please rest assured. I will protect Madam even if I die, and will never let her be hurt!”
“Being hurt?” Qin Wanru raised her eyebrows, containing some meanings in her words.
“No, no, it’s not being hurt. I made a mistake. I would no longer let Madam hurt herself!” Nanny Zhou shook her head again and again, hurriedly explaining, afraid that Qin Wanru would misunderstand.
“That would be the best! My father’s thoughts always have been insistent. With such a thing, Duke Yong’s Mansion and our Qin’s Mansion almost pitted each other. My father always cared about such things!” Qin Wanru said leisurely. The words seemed to be a warn or a sigh.
They fell in the ear of Nanny Zhou, scaring her into a panic.
“Second Miss, I know that. Nothing will happen again!”
“Does the doctor come here today? What doctor do you ask?” Qin Wanru asked, narrowing her eyes and paying attention to Madam Di’s injury.
“Old Madam of Duke Yong ‘s Mansion meant to invite the imperial physician in the palace, but this time he has not yet come. The general’s intention was also to ask for an imperial physician. Madam’s injury is too severe, and she cannot speak now. The whole person is groggy, and even after waking up, it doesn’t take long to fall asleep! ”
Nanny Zhou said with worry.
“Is he coming soon?” Qin Wanru smiled slightly and asked lightly.
“It would be soon. It should be during this time!” Nanny Zhou said hastily.
“Qu Le, you accompany Nanny Zhou to Chuihua Gate and wait. If the imperial physician comes, hurriedly bring him here!” Qin Wanru instructed Qu Le.
When she came over this time, she brought two servant girls. One was Qu Le and the other was Yujie.
Qu Le came according to her order and smiled at Nanny Zhou. “Nanny Zhou, let’s go to wait for the imperial physician. When he comes, let’s bring him here directly. It will be faster!”
Nanny Zhou’s eyes narrowed, and she looked at Qin Wanru and Yujie behind her. Her mouth opened and she was very flustered. If she also left, there would only be Second Miss and her close servant girl in this room. What if something happened?
“What happened? You are not willing to bring the imperial physician to come here soon?” Qin Wanru’s face darkened slightly.
Yujie snorted coldly. “Nanny Zhou, if you don’t bring the imperial physician over here quickly, can you afford this responsibility if anything happens for a while?”
“Yes, yes, I am going to wait right now!” Nanny Zhou said in a hurry without more hesitation. She followed Qu Le to turn away, thinking that Second Miss would not do anything to Madam at this time. When she left, if something happened to Madam, everyone knew that it was Second Miss who did it.
After Nanny Zhou and Qu Le left, there were only Qin Wanru and her servant girl in the room.
“Use the medicine!” Qin Wanru commanded.
Yujie nodded. She went forward behind Qin Wanru, took out a small medicine bag from her arms, went to the bed to squat, and smeared some powder near Madam Di’s nose.
Immediately, a pungent odor rushed into Madam Di’s nasal cavity, making her involuntarily wake up from drowsiness. She coughed, putting hands around her throat. At the same time, she found there was someone in front of her mistily.
She seemed to want to catch the figure in front of her. But when she saw clearly that Yujie was in front of her, she was astonished, and for a while, she didn’t think of who this girl was in front of her.
“Madam Di, our Second Miss is here to help you. From then on, our Second Miss will be here to serve you until your injury is cured!” Yujie said with a smile, wrapping the medicine powder in her hands, tucking into the sleeves.
Seeing the drug pack in Yujie’s hand, Madam Di’s drowsy brain woke up and she immediately pushed away Yujie, confusedly making sound like “haha”, but she couldn’t say a whole word.
“Madam Di, I heard that you have a lot of good things hidden here. It happens that I am here to serve you, and there is no outsider. Let me see what you have here!” Qin Wanru came over with a smile. Her eyes fell on Madam Di’s face. Her delicate little face was as white as jade, which made people feel more beautiful.
Madam Di wielded her sleeves vigorously, who seemed to be driving Qin Wanru away. But at this time, she just could shake her sleeves and couldn’t do much at all.
Qin Wanru smiled slightly, returned to her previous chair and sat down indifferently. She looked at Madam Di’s flustered face and saw that she was looking for someone turning around her neck with difficulty. She smiled. “Is Madam Di looking for Big Sister? Big Sister is actually here to serve you, but she suddenly got sick this morning. Although she comes here, she will rest in the room on the side! ”
With these words, there was a glimmer of distress in Madam Di’s eyes, and the whole person immediately stopped moving.
“Did Madam Di remember the things of yesterday? Big Sister really deserves to be Madam Di’s good daughter. Knowing Madam Di’s intentions, she specially helped you. This was to send you to the road of death! And she wanted to use Madam Di’s death to frame me and my mother!”
Qin Wanru looked at Madam Di’s movements, but smiled. Her smile was soft like water, but it made Madam Di’s face pale. Her fingers pressed against the bed, trembling, and her mouth was panting.
“Maybe Big Sister is afraid to see you this time, so she didn’t come by. Later imperial physician would come here, let her see whether you are curable. It would be bad… if it is like this. You didn’t only fail to hang yourself…” Qin Wanru glanced at Madam Di up and down, seeing that she was flexible on one side, but the other side had difficulty in moving. Added that she had always been asleep before, her situation was terrible.
“Madam Di, I’m afraid that because of my good Big Sister’s terrible pulling, although you kept your life, you got stroke!”
Her words were like a giant thunder booming in Madam Di’s ears. She was so shock that her body fell heavily on the quilt, and her face was painful and desperate…
