Shu Qingyao was sitting in the house facing the window, holding her chin with one hand, watching the strings of ice on the trees dripping with water due to the sunlight.
"Miss, it's time to drink the medicine..." Wu Ling walked in with the medicine.
Since being dragged to Haoyue Hall by Shen Xinglou that time, medicine has been delivered every day.
She doesn't understand, what kind of anti-pregnancy medicine needs to be drank every day? If you drink like this, you won’t have any health problems!
She didn't understand, but she felt that her body had felt a lot better recently. Even though the Golden Needle is still in the body, there is no problem in regulating the breath.
He took the medicine bowl from Wu Ling's hand and brought it to his lips.
As soon as the bitter concoction entered his tongue, Leng Buding heard Wu Ling mutter:
"I'm actually really happy."
"..." Shu Qingyao almost choked and blurted out, "I didn't."
Wu Ling glanced at her in surprise: "I didn't say anything about you, Miss."
After a pause: "The slave is talking about the second lady Wei Lin."
Shu Qingyao exhaled slightly.
After a moment of pause, he asked: "Didn't you say that the second young master of the Wei family is disabled? Then this child..."
"I don't know. Now there are rumors outside that Wei Lin is stealing people!" Wu Ling pinched the ends of her braids and stirred them up. "I didn't expect that what he told last night was all the truth. Wei Lin was so dishonest."
Then he looked at the medicine bowl: "Miss, please drink the medicine quickly! Chu Qing said that the tonic will lose its effect when it gets cold."
Early sunshine?
"You mean, Chuqing was the one who brought the medicine to you all this time?"
"Yes. Chu Qing said that after the eldest lady takes charge of the house, anyone in the house who is weak can use money from the account to drink tonics——" Seeing Shu Qingyao's ugly face, she suddenly realized, "——You Don’t know? When I see you drinking happily every time, this slave thinks you..."
Shu Qingyao shook his head.
Chu Qing, whom she had only met twice, was still the eldest lady's maid, so how could she bring her tonics for no reason? Besides, no doctor had ever shown her that she could drink tonics at will?
"Ah! Then stop drinking!" Wu Ling snatched the bowl from her hand, "What if it hurts someone!"
The concoction rippled along the edge of the bowl and spilled all over Shu Qingyao's hands. She stared blankly at the tiger's mouth, this scene seemed familiar.
I recalled that the first time I drank this medicine was at Shen Xinglou's place.
And the smell of medicine has been exactly the same for the past few days.
The medicine Chu Qing brought was the medicine Shen Xinglou gave her. Could it be that Chu Qing was from Shen Xinglou?
After thinking about it for a while, she suddenly realized a problem.
If Shen Xinglou came to express his condolences to the old city lord, and the funeral of the old city lord is over now, there is no need to stay here till now. What’s even stranger is that the Wei family’s attitude toward Shen Xinglou’s stay is hard to tell. It seems they neither want him to stay long nor want him to leave...
"Miss, this Wei Mansion is really not peaceful. The master is not like the master, and the servant is not like the servant. I miss the time when I was in Taizhou, it was much quieter than here." Wu Ling whispered.
Shu Qingyao murmured: "Well, I have to find a chance to explore."
If Shen Xinglou is involved with the Wei family, she must get out quickly.
It's just that the timing is not easy to find...
"Qing'er, are you in there?" Wei Xingzhao's voice suddenly came from outside the door.
Shu Qingyao was startled.
After a moment of silence, Wu Ling asked him to sit in the living room.
Last time Wei Xingzhao was in a hurry and went straight to Shu Qingyao's bed. This time he came again, even in the living room, he felt uncomfortable.
"Third Young Master, please help yourself." Shu Qingyao gathered her skirt and sat down.
Wei Xingzhao sat down at the other end and looked around, feeling unusually deserted.
After thinking for a moment, he said: "There was something going on in the house a few days ago. My sister-in-law was busy taking care of it, but she forgot to allocate a few people to your Ruolan Courtyard. I will go and talk to my sister-in-law later."
Shu Qing nodded gracefully: "The third young master came here specially today, not just to call people, right?"
Wei Xingzhao heard the coldness in her tone and was a little annoyed: "Qing'er, I know I was too anxious and too much yesterday, which made you unhappy. Can you please don't get angry with me? From now on, I will listen first. You said, never let others be blinded."
The corners of Shu Qingyao's lips were slightly raised, with a hint of ridicule.
Seeing her like this, Wei Xingzhao clenched his fists and continued: "I came today because Ah Li wanted to apologize. She specially chartered a cruise, so we can enjoy the scenery and play games on the boat... The young prince is worried that there are few of us and we are boring, so Will come."
After saying that, he looked at Shu Qingyao without any confidence.
Unexpectedly, after a brief silence, she smiled for a moment.
A tiny light flashed in his eyes: "Okay, I will go to the appointment on time."
