Chapter 75 Little Ears Chapter.
"explain……"
Hu'er hesitated and seemed afraid to speak, which made Zi'er feel sorry for Hu'er. "Madam, it must be Mrs. Zhang gossiping again. Otherwise, let this maidservant..."
"No need!"
After saying this, she lowered her eyes to look at Hu'er. Hu'er's eyes seemed very aggrieved, which made Li Qingwan feel nervous. After all, he was living under someone else's roof, so it was normal for Hu'er to be timid and afraid.
But she couldn't let Hu'er live such a miserable life forever. She should be more direct with those who need to be dealt with, and there's no need to be patient!
"Tiger, what else did you say?"
Hu'er then told Li Qingwan what Aunt Zhang had said. When Li Qingwan heard it, she squatted down to comfort Hu'er, "Hu'er, do you believe her words?"
"I don't believe it. If my elder sister hadn't cared about me, I would have starved to death. You are not the kind of person she said you were!"
Nanny Zhang gossiped to Huer, saying that Li Qingwan only felt sorry for her own son Runer, and would not take his brother from outside seriously at all. It was obvious that although these words came from Nanny Zhang's mouth, she was acting according to the old woman's instructions.
However, since you dare to say that, Nanny Zhang will have to pay the price!
"Zi'er, I remember that Aunt Zhang has a nephew working in the mansion, right?"
When Zi'er heard this, she thought, Madam wants to...
"Ma'am, what do you mean?"
"Call that man over and tell him that this lady wants to see you!"
Zi'er couldn't figure out what the lady meant, but she went to do it anyway. After Zi'er left, Li Qingwan signaled Hu'er to go down first. Calculating the time, Sima Yue asked the doctor to come back by then.
Sure enough, just after sending Hu'er away, Sima Yue brought an old doctor from the capital to see her, "Qingwan, are you feeling better? The doctor is here."
Li Qingwan was lying on the bed at this time, looking listless, "Doctor, please help me!"
"Madam, please give me your hand."
Inside the room, the doctor was treating Li Qingwan, but Ah Qing was called out by Sima Yue, as if for a trial.
Ah Qing was no pushover after all, and bowed respectfully to Sima Yue, "What do you want me to do, sir?"
Sima Yue glanced at Ah Qing and said, "I want to ask you, which restaurant did you eat at?"
Ah Qing: "..."
"Sir, Ah Qing is fed by the Sima family. If it weren't for the Sima family, Ah Qing would still be begging on the street!"
"You are a sensible boy. Let me ask you, who has the lady seen in the past few days?"
"people?"
Ah Qing pretended to be nervous, which made Sima Yue's heart skip a beat. Could it be that Qing Wan was really in contact with Mu Shenyin in private?
"Speaking, who has she met privately?"
Ah Qing paused, "Madam has met a lot of people these days."
"What are they?"
"There are you, old lady, Hu'er, and..."
"Stop, who is asking you this? What I mean is, has the Madam ever seen anyone from outside?"
"Outside?"
Ah Qing paused, as if she had something to hide, which made Sima Yue feel even colder. Could it be that Li Qingwan really had fallen in love with someone else?
"say!"
"Yes, we met the eunuchs in the palace, and many eunuchs."
"anything else?"
"Gone……"
Sima Yue: “…”
"Forget it, go and serve the lady!"
"Yes!"
Ah Qing was very smart and naturally knew that Sima Yue was testing him. He was not so stupid as to betray his wife. This Sima Yue was not worthy of his wife.
After Ah Qing left, the mischievous Xiuzhu came over cautiously. Seeing that there was no one around, she called out, "Husband!"
"Shut up, who asked you to come?"
Xiuzhu: “…”
Xiuzhu didn't expect that Sima Yue, this big pig's hoof, was still angry with her. She felt a little aggrieved, "Husband, I really didn't wrong Li Qingwan, I heard it!"
"Shut up! You still have the nerve to talk like that, Xiuzhu! I'm warning you one last time. If you slander Qingwan again next time, you'll have to get out of the Sima family!"
"I……"
"Thank you, doctor. Have a safe trip!"
"Still not going out?"
Sima Yue no longer believed Xiuzhu's words at all and treated her very badly. Xiuzhu was furious, but helpless. She had to find a way to coax her son.
Otherwise, she would have less and less status in Sima Yue's heart, and he would fall in love with Li Qingwan. Then wouldn't she be coming back just to help others?
"Goodbye, doctor!"
"Doctor, how is my wife?"
Sima Yue was really worried about Li Qingwan's health this time, so he invited the best doctor in the capital.
The doctor bowed slightly when he saw him, "Sir, Madam has indeed caught a cold, so she needs to rest."
"is it serious?"
"Take the medicine and rest for a few days, Madam will recover quickly!"
"that would be great!"
He still breathed a sigh of relief. As long as it didn't affect the reception of the guests from the palace, it would be fine. Otherwise, wouldn't all their work be in vain?
"Someone, send the doctor."
Sima Yue wanted to go see how Li Qingwan was doing, but was stopped by Ah Qing, "Sir, the lady has gone to bed, please let her have a good rest."
Sima Yue originally wanted to kick Ah Qing away, but then he thought that Li Qingwan really needed to rest, and she couldn't fall down, so he let it go.
"You let Madam have a good rest, I will personally deliver dinner."
What, he delivered it personally?
When Ah Qing told Li Qingwan exactly what she had said, she was lying on the bed thinking about the next thing, "Don't let him in, no matter what you do."
"Ah Qing understands!"
"Madam, Zhang Yuanbao is here."
Outside, Zi'er and a teenager walked in slowly. Upon learning that Zhang Yuanbao had arrived, Li Qingwan put on her clothes and sat in the inner room. She coughed deliberately, wanting Zhang Yuanbao to hear it and know that she was sick.
"Come in."
"Madam asked you to come in, why are you still standing there?"
Zhang Yuanbao is tall and thin. He usually helps with odd jobs in the kitchen. However, he has a bad character. He is not very clean. When he sees valuable and beautiful things in the owner's house, he always likes to steal them. In his previous life, the housekeeper often complained to her, but due to the old woman's face, she did not deal with the matter. Now, it is a good opportunity to make an example of her to scare the monkeys!
"Madam, is there anything you need from me? I'm very busy and need to help in the kitchen."
As soon as Zhang Yuanbao came in, he didn't regard Li Qingwan as the mistress of the house at all. In his opinion, the old lady still has the final say in the Sima family, and his aunt is a favorite of the old lady. Who dares to touch him?
"How dare you! This is our Madam Sima!"
Zhang Yuanbao was disdainful of Ah Qing's words. He had a pair of cross-eyed, cunning eyes, and looked annoying no matter how he looked at her. He spoke without thinking, "I know it's Madam, I know her! But I still have work to do, and I don't have time to listen to Madam's teachings."
Having said that, he turned around and wanted to leave, and seeing him so arrogant, Li Qingwan also saw what kind of person the servant was. This was the bad habit that Nanny Zhang had spoiled him with. He was obviously a servant, but he was three times tougher than the master. But Li Qingwan would not tolerate him!
"Stop, is this lady letting you go?"
