In the evening, someone brought Su Qing medicinal ingredients to recuperate her body and also brought a bowl to Mu Yunyao.
Mu Yunyao's forehead slightly creased."I don't have any uncomfortable places, why would I be drinking this bitter medicine juice?" Senior Servant Liu walked up with the candied fruits."Miss, Doctor He said that there are inevitably places from the south to the north where the soil and water are not compatible. Previously, when he was checking his wife's pulse, he noticed that her cheeks were slightly red.
With ginseng and medlar, although the taste is not very good, it is very good for your body. Many of the ladies in the capital's great clans require their bodies to be nurtured year round."
Mu Yunyao picked up the medicine bowl and took a sniff. Her forehead slightly wrinkled, and although her expression was still unwilling, there was no longer the same resistance as before."Is what Senior Servant said true?"
"Of course it's true. This servant absolutely does not dare to lie to Miss. The Eldest Miss of our mansion also needs to drink nourishing medicine every day!" "After being nurtured all year round, her looks are comparable to Hua Jiao's. I wonder how many people she has been envious of."
"Then is the medicine elder sister drank the same as the medicine I drank tonight?"
"Of course it's the same. Although young mistress is the granddaughter of the madame, the madame loves the little miss the same as her own granddaughter. Otherwise, everything on the ship wouldn't be so complete that the medicinal ingredients for body recovery would have been prepared."
Mu Yunyao's eyes moved as a smile quickly flashed across her face. Did this Senior Servant Liu think she was a fool?
Su Yuyi did indeed consume pills all year round. However, they were all top quality and precious herbs. The combination of the ingredients was especially meticulous in order to make her complexion more outstanding.
The pill was worth at least a hundred taels of silver and what he had in his bowl were only some simple herbs that could be boiled in clear fire. Senior Servant Liu dared to say that she was eating the same as Su Yuyi, what shameless boasting!
As she thought, she picked up the medicine bowl and drank it directly from it. After drinking it, she pinched another candied fruit and placed it in her mouth. Only then did her expression relax, "This medicine tastes really good. It's getting late. I need to go to sleep early. Senior Servant Liu also goes down to rest."
Seeing Mu Yunyao directly drink the medicine from the bowl, a carefree expression flashed across Senior Servant Liu's eyes."Yes, then I won't disturb Miss."
When Senior Servant Liu had retreated, Mu Yunyao pressed her hand on the acupoint on her chest and spat out the medicine she had just drunk.
Su Qing hurried over to support Mu Yunyao."Yao`er?"
Mu Yunyao picked up the handkerchief and wiped the corner of her lips. She quickly comforted Su Qing, "Mother, don't worry. I'm fine."
"Then just now, you ... Could there be something wrong with that bowl of medicine? "
"Just a little. It's about the same as the Octadic Treasure Tofu I added before."
"You silly child already saw through the problem, why didn't you expose that Senior Servant Liu?" Su Qing felt heartache.
Mu Yunyao supported Su Qing to sit at the side. Her eyes were a little watery from the vomit just now, and she looked rather pitiful, "Mother, I know about medicine, so I don't want the Su Family to know about it too early. This is our trump card, and it might have an unexpected effect sometime in the future. In addition, that Senior Servant Liu was just a nobody. The reason she dared to do this was all due to Eldest Madam's influence. Even though she's bold and audacious, she can't afford to be cheated. Just like what I said before, her expression immediately changed, this kind of person is extremely easy to deal with, but if we were to directly deal with her, that would be great. Tomorrow, Senior Servant Zhang, Senior Servant Li, will the others be easy to deal with?
"Not necessarily. Besides, we already know what she did, so we just need to be careful. She will have other uses in the future."
Su Qing was still furious."Even though you said that, you must have suffered." Mu Yunyao looked at the medicine bowl that Su Qing placed at the side and took it over to her mother. She then poured it into a flower pot on the table, "What's so bitter about that? Besides, even though I don't deal with that Senior Servant Liu now, I didn't say that I wouldn't make her suffer. Mother, rest assured, I'm the most petty person here."
"
Not long after he finished talking, a commotion broke out outside.
Mu Yunyao pursed her lips and called Jinlan in, telling her to go out and take a look. Not long later, Jinlan returned and reported, "Reporting to Madam and Miss, when Senior Servant Liu went downstairs, she somehow fell down the stairs and broke her leg."
"Broke it?" Su Qing was surprised.
"That's right. I don't know how it happened, but the staircase didn't seem that high. But if you fell down, you would break your leg."
Su Qing turned her head to look at Mu Yunyao. With a hesitant tone, she asked, "Yao`er, who ..." "It's ..." Mu Yunyao nodded slightly, admitting that she had done it herself. Just now, she had asked Senior Servant Liu to bring down that plate of candied fruits, and when her fingers brushed it, she sprinkled some medicinal powder on top. The candied fruits had some icing on them and the white medicinal powder couldn't be seen at all.
It could also cause trouble for her. Su Qing caressed Mu Yunyao's hair, "Yao`er should rest early. Tomorrow, we will go visit that Senior Servant Liu." Her heart still minded Senior Servant Liu's previous actions. Her Yao'er was the kindest, yet that Senior Servant Liu had hardened her heart to harm her. If she didn't look at her miserable appearance, it would be really hard to clear her mind ...
Hatred.
"Alright, I'll listen to mother." Mu Yunyao, on the other hand, rarely saw Su Qing gritting her teeth like this. She was very surprised, but she couldn't help sighing in her heart. The change in her mother's character after staying in the Tomb City for so long had truly been novel.
The next morning, after breakfast, Mu Yunyao accompanied Su Qing to Senior Servant Liu's room.
At this moment, Senior Servant Liu was lying on the bed, wailing in grief. Her face was covered in cold sweat, and one of her legs rested on the side of the bed. She looked extremely miserable.
When Wen mama heard the news, she hurried over to accompany them. Seeing her like this, she couldn't help but furrow her brows and remind her, "Senior Servant Liu, the Madam and the Miss are here to visit you."
Senior Servant Liu was lying on the bed. Upon hearing his words, she turned her head slightly, her face contorted in pain."This servant thanks Madam and Miss. It's inconvenient for me to get up now, so I can't pay my respects to you two."
Mu Yunyao blinked, a look of concern on her face. However, her first sentence directly pierced Senior Servant Liu's sore spot, "Senior Servant Liu, why are you so careless? It must have hurt a lot to break a leg like this. Most importantly, the medicinal ingredients on the boat are not enough right now, so there might be a handicap left behind."
Hearing this, Senior Servant Liu's anger rose to the extreme, but she didn't dare to flare up. Instead, she pleaded, "Madam, Miss, this servant's injuries are too painful. I wonder if I could ask Madam to order me to land and buy some medicinal ingredients to help me use." As long as he could achieve his goal, it wouldn't be too much of a loss.
