After watching Xu Mingyue walk upstairs and disappear from sight, the servants gathered together in twos and threes and chatted.
"Hey! The young master is so pitiful, how could he end up with such a stepmother!"
A servant thought that now Xu Mingyue was in the Chu family with one hand covering the sky and doing whatever she wanted, while Chu Ze, as Chu Tianhang's only son, could only live in the shadow of such a cruel stepmother. He couldn't help but shake his head and feel sorry for Chu Ze. .
I think that when the last Mrs. Chu was alive, the young master had a very lively and lovely temperament, and he didn't treat them servants like Xu Mingyue at all, but respected them very much.
"Mr. is also at fault for this matter! If sir had paid more attention to the young master, would the young master still be bullied like this by the madam?"
The servant in charge of food pointed out the root of the problem to the point.
Although she was the cook hired by the Chu family to take care of Xu Mingyue's diet, she was now giving her employer a lesson unceremoniously.
When a younger servant next to him heard this, he curled his lips and said:
"I think your husband is blinded by lard now! The lady living at home is like a foxy temptress! She only cares about having fun all day long, and she even makes things difficult for the young master from time to time! How can she be as gentle and virtuous as the former lady? ah!"
As soon as he said this, he was immediately recognized by the servants around him.
"The young master hasn't had dinner since he came back. Why don't we bring some food to the young master?"
After chatting for a while, the cook thought that Chu Ze, who had just returned, looked very ugly, with a pale face and a body that was not as thin as a boy of this age should be.
After lamenting, he proposed the idea of delivering food to Chu Ze.
After hearing what the cook said, the expressions of the servants who were fighting for Chu Ze just now became a little subtle.
"The ingredients at home are all prepared for the madam. If we give them to the young master to eat rashly, what if the madam finds out about us later on a whim..."
One servant was hesitant to speak. Looking at the other servants around him who were as hesitant as him, he simply opened his mouth and said what was on his mind for everyone.
After hearing what she said, the cook turned her head and glanced at the expressions of the others.
They looked away without a trace.
The cook sighed inwardly.
Just when I was about to say that it was all my responsibility.
Suddenly the younger servant suggested: "By the way, isn't there a bowl of soup in the kitchen that the lady is not going to drink? I remember that the bowl of soup was very light. The ladies on the left and right are not going to drink it anymore, so instead of us taking it and pouring it If you drop it, why don’t you give it to the young master!"
Although it is too much to give the young master the soup that he plans to throw away, it is undoubtedly the best solution than getting angry when the wife discovers all this.
As soon as the young servant said the words, the other servants thought about it for a while and felt that this was a good idea.
If they hadn't said anything, who would have known that this bowl of soup was given to the young master?
After several people reached an agreement, the cook brought the bowl of soup upstairs to the young master.
Chu Ze, who returned home from school, couldn't help but secretly breathed a sigh of relief as soon as he walked in and found that his stepmother Xu Mingyue was not in the house.
He feels very bad now and has no energy to argue with Xu Mingyue.
After telling the servant not to disturb him upstairs, Chu Ze went upstairs with heavy steps.
After entering the room, he fell on the bed. Because of the bursts of pain in his abdomen, he had no choice but to curl up, like an insecure wolf cub.
A suppressed sob escaped from between his clenched teeth.
Time passed little by little, but the pain did not subside at all.
I don’t know how long he endured it. Under such severe pain, Chu Ze gradually became tired and fell into a deep sleep. However, even in his sleep, his brows were still tightly knitted together due to the pain on his body, and the sweat from his forehead flowed smoothly. The pillow was soaked on his cheeks.
The cook went upstairs with the bowl of soup and came to Chu Ze's door. She knocked on the door.
After waiting for a while, there was no sound coming from the room.
She frowned worriedly.
I thought that maybe the young master was too tired at school today, so he accidentally fell asleep.
There was no rush for her to wait a little.
After a while, the cook knocked on the door again, but the young master still didn't open the door for her.
Ever since Madam came to the Chu family, the young master has never slept so deeply.
Many times I wake up in the middle of the night and suffer from insomnia.
The cook thought of the young master's pale face when he came home, and she couldn't help but feel a little worried.
At this moment a servant came, looking in a hurry.
The cook saw her and asked casually: "What's the matter, are you so anxious?"
The servant nervously said to her: "Madam, she feels upset in her stomach and would like to ask a doctor to come and diagnose her."
Xu Mingyue often has to ask her family doctor to see her for the smallest things. She is delicate and has many things to do.
The cook nodded.
The servant hurried downstairs to call the family doctor's phone number.
After about half an hour, the family doctor came to the door with a medical kit.
When I came, there was a little girl of twelve or thirteen years old with me, who looked very cute.
Seeing the doctor coming to the door with a child, the servant frowned as it seemed inappropriate: "Are you Dr. Jiang introduced by Dr. Li? Who is this?"
The family doctor who had been working at Chu's house suddenly had something to do and couldn't come today, but he introduced Dr. Jiang, who he said was his good friend, to come over.
There was really no other family doctor to be found at the moment, so the servant simply asked Dr. Jiang to come over.
Dr. Jiang is a woman with a melancholy temperament. She is not as charming and charming as Xu Mingyue, but she has a different aura that makes people lovable.
She pulled her daughter Jiang Xiaoxiao and smiled sheepishly at the servant: "Yes. This is my daughter. I came in a hurry to pick her up from school and didn't have time to send her home."
Hearing this, the servant relaxed his brows and said calmly to Dr. Jiang: "When you treat Madam later, don't bring the children in. Madam hates children."
After hearing this, Dr. Jiang's eyes flashed and he responded: "I understand."
Then Dr. Jiang took his daughter Jiang Xiaoxiao and followed the servant upstairs to where Xu Mingyue lived.
When passing by Chu Ze's room, he noticed the cook standing outside the door holding soup and knocking on the door. Doctor Jiang turned his head and glanced.
When the servant saw it, he said casually: "That is the young master's room, and the madam's room is still in front."
Dr. Jiang's eyes flashed and he followed the servant to Xu Mingyue's room.
After arriving at the room where Xu Mingyue lived, the servant knocked on the door.
Hearing Xu Mingyue inside say come in, he pushed the door open and entered.
Jiang Xiaoxiao was arranged by the servant outside the door, trying not to be seen by Xu Mingyue.
After Dr. Jiang walked in, he looked at the charming woman half lying on the big bed and introduced himself: "Hello, I am the new family doctor, Jiang Rou."
Hearing this, Xu Mingyue's eyes moved lazily from the phone to Jiang Rou's face.
"Um."
She snorted lazily.
"Come here and show me."
