I can't afford to mess with the concubine doctor

Chapter 85
After bidding farewell to Mrs. Chen and the Marquis of Huaiyang who came to see him off in person in the morning, Qu Lingxu got into the carriage, but the base of the carriage was tampered with in advance. Before leaving the city, he got out with the help of Ling Yun. Now he is sitting on the carriage. She is a person who is proficient in disguise in Yebe, and her level of disguise is extremely high. As long as she doesn't talk much, no one will find out that she is pretending in a short time.

Of course, Li Daitao's stiff strategy has already succeeded, even if it is discovered, there will be no major problems.

At this time, Qu Lingxu, who was on her way with all her strength, didn't know that the situation in the general's mansion had become turbulent after she left, and there was a tendency of a storm that was about to overwhelm the building.

Fairview Court

After this period of recuperation, the skin wounds on Xu's body have completely healed, but the two blows from the stick have left a lingering impact on her body, and her left leg can no longer recover as before.

Because of Xu's "magnanimity" in the matter of Qu Dingbang's adoption, Qu Liancheng had already released her confinement before going on the expedition. Murongli's plan was to be carried out in the general's mansion, so naturally he informed Xu early, Xu She had long hated Chen Shi who blocked her way, so naturally she would not object.

"Master, drink a cup of bird's nest."

Hearing Nanny Cui's words, Mrs. Xu, who was contemplating deeply, came back to her senses, took the gold-painted porcelain cup handed over by the other party, and said calmly: "Has that little bastard left the city?"

"Calculating the time, we should be out of the city." Cui Mama stood aside with her hands down, and said with an apologetic smile, "Even if that Qu Lingxu is so smart, what if he was severely slapped by His Royal Highness, and waited for her to return to the mansion?" Seeing the big gift Madam prepared for her, the expression on her face will definitely be very exciting."

"Go back to the mansion?" Xu's hand stirring the bird's nest paused, and said in a bitter voice: "From the moment that little bitch stepped out of the mansion, my wife has no intention of letting her come back alive!"

The things of these days are superimposed together, so she can't wait to peel Qu Lingxu's skin and cramps in a few minutes, as well as bruise her bones and ashes, how willing to see that face she hates again!
Her father Xu Miracle Doctor has been in Jianghu for several years, and his strength is not shallow. When Qu Lingxu was in the capital, it was inconvenient for them to do it, but once they were outside the capital, everything was much more convenient.

Mother Cui was not surprised that Mrs. Xu would have such an idea, so she smiled and said: "Master is wise, so it is good for their mother and daughter to be companions on Huangquan Road, so as to save loneliness."

"That's exactly what it means." Xu smugly hooked the corners of his lips and snorted softly, "What do you think Chen is doing right now?"

"My precious daughter has just left me, and she has gone to such a far place. As a mother, how can she not be sad?" Cui Nanny replied with a smile.

"The mistress is sad. As a concubine, I should be more caring and reassuring. Go and invite the madam over!"

Mother Cui naturally didn't think that Mrs. Xu invited Mrs. Chen here just to chat, so she immediately suppressed her smile and asked cautiously: "Master, is it too early for us to start now?"

Logically speaking, Qu Lingxu had just left, so it was indeed not a good time to act, but Xu's anger had been suppressed for too long, and he was eager to find a breakthrough to vent all the grievances he had suffered these days. What's more, Qu Liancheng and Qu Lingxu are not in the mansion, how can they care so much, and immediately said coldly: "My wife can't wait for a moment, solve it as soon as possible, so as to avoid long nights and dreams."

Although Nanny Cui felt that Mrs. Xu's behavior was a little too reckless, as a servant, it was inconvenient to comment too much, so she just retreated respectfully. However, she was stopped by Mrs. Xu before she walked out of the room, "Wait a minute, I will go myself."

"Master, your legs and feet are not..." After blurting out these words, Madam Cui realized that she had violated Xu's taboo, and quickly changed her words: "Master, you are not feeling well and should take a good rest. Why does Mrs. Chen deserve your personal visit?" .”

"She is the general's wife, how can she condescend to come to the yard of my aunt, I should go there in person, you prepare the sedan chair!" According to Murongli and Xu's plan, they planned to let Chen stay in the back garden. Accidentally fell into the water, so she can only blame her bad luck, even if someone wants to investigate, they can't find anything, not to mention that Qu Liancheng doesn't have much affection for Chen, and doesn't care how she died at all.

After Madam Cui prepared the sedan chair, Mrs. Xu led a large group of servants towards the Fufang Courtyard where Mrs. Chen lived. No one noticed that a few people had gone to the back garden quietly. Be prepared to wait your turn.

Mrs. Chen sent Qu Lingxu away full of worry, feeling very depressed, Madam Yu persuaded her for a while, before Mrs. Chen reluctantly ate two bites of snacks, then waved her hands and said: "You guys take these things and divide them up! "

Seeing this, Madam Yu advised with a worried face: "Master, this servant knows that you are worried about Missy, but you should also take care of yourself. If Missy returns home and sees that Madam has lost weight, she will definitely punish this servant." .”

It's good that Mother Yu didn't mention Qu Lingxu, but when she mentioned her, Chen's expression became even more gloomy, and she sighed heavily: "Although Xu'er is smart, she is just a little girl who has just reached the age of Ji, she has never been born before. Far door, I am really worried..."

Nanny Yu watched Qu Lingxu grow up, so she was naturally worried, but she couldn't say it right now. It just added trouble to Mrs. Chen, so she just smiled and comforted: "Madam, don't worry, the eldest lady has her own destiny." Xiang, I will definitely come back safely, don't forget, during the last plague, the doctor said that the eldest lady has no chance of surviving, so she just woke up in the end?"

Hearing this, Chen's heart felt a little more at ease, and Madam Yu was about to take the opportunity to persuade her to eat more breakfast, but saw the guard at the gate come in and report: "Ma'am, Second Aunt is out to see you."

"What is she here for?" Madam Yu didn't have a good impression of Mrs. Xu, not to mention that Mrs. Chen was in a bad mood now, and she didn't have the leisure to spend more time talking with her, so she frowned immediately and said, "Go and tell her that Madam is not in good health." Comfortable, let her go back!"

"Yes." The servant backed away, but not long after, he turned back and said in a low voice, "Ma'am, the second aunt said that the eldest lady is leaving Beijing today, and the lady must be feeling very uncomfortable, so she came here to say hello and ask the lady to see you." See you soon."

"Where is there so much nonsense, let her go quickly."

"Let her in!" Chen put down the teacup and said calmly.

"Master, why do you waste your energy on people like Mrs. Xu, these days she hides in the Jinxiu Pavilion every day, and the eldest lady just left her and came to see the madam, she must have no good intentions." Yumao said angrily.

"I don't know that she has no good intentions, but I still have to see her, otherwise she will think I'm afraid of her." Qu Liancheng is not there, and everything in the mansion is decided by her, the general's wife. Xu wants to take advantage of Qu Ling There was a moth in the gap where Xu left, and there was no door.

When Mrs. Chen said this, Madam Yu couldn't stop her. After a while, Mrs. Xu, who was being supported by Madam Cui, appeared in Chen's sight. She stood still in the main hall, dignifiedly He made a salute, "My concubine pays my respects to my wife, and my wife is blessed."

"Get up!" At this moment, the breakfast has been removed by the servants, and the worried and melancholy expression on Chen's face is no longer there. He just sat on the head and said expressionlessly: "My sister's legs and feet are not good. Well, you should take a good rest, why come here to pay your respects at this time."

Seeing that Mrs. Chen didn't ask her to sit down, Mrs. Xu hated her secretly, but thinking about her own plan, she felt that there was no need to act so quickly, so she only smiled just right, and said softly: "The concubine should I came to pay my respects to Madam every day, but I was delayed because I was unwell a few days ago, and I also asked Madam to be generous, and don’t blame the concubine.”

"How dare my wife blame you, Second Aunt." Mrs. Chen moved the teacup slowly, and said calmly, "Mother Yu, please take a seat with Second Aunt!"

"Second aunt, please." Yuma Yu glanced at Xu Shi with a half-smile, and said lightly, "I haven't seen you for a long time, and my aunt's legs and feet are obviously much better than before. It looks... only a little lame."

Since Mrs. Xu was beaten, no one dared to mention the word lame in front of her, for fear of angering her. Madam Yu's words were tantamount to rubbing salt on her wound.

If it wasn't for Xu's patience, Nanny Yu would have been slapped twice by now.

"Grandmother Yu, don't be rude." Mrs. Chen glanced at Mrs. Xu, who was livid, and said with a faint smile, "Grandma Yu has been with my wife for a long time, and if she hasn't learned how to be obedient and obedient, it's inevitable that she speaks more bluntly." , I hope my sister doesn't mind."

Xu's hands in his sleeves were tightly clenched together, but in the end he quickly calmed down and smiled as usual: "Madam, you are polite, although my concubine is not as noble as you, she is still a master anyway, how can she follow me?" common sense."

"I know my sister is a big-hearted person." Chen raised her eyes to look at Xu, and said with a smile: "My sister has already asked Ann, you can go back, don't wait for the master to come back and blame my wife for not being considerate to concubines."

"Madam has always cared for my concubines very much, how can the master not know." Xu lowered her head and took a sip of tea, and said with a smile: "Missy has gone to Jiangling, Madam will inevitably feel lonely. When I come here, I will see the back garden The chrysanthemums in the garden are blooming very well, so my concubine set up all kinds of refreshments in the gazebo, and sent someone to invite other sisters, and waited for Madam to come and enjoy the flowers together."

As the saying goes, if there is nothing to show courteousness, it is either adultery or robbery, so for this request made by Xu, Chen almost instinctively refused, but the other party seemed to have expected that she would refuse, so he invited other concubines to join him. In this way, it would be inappropriate for Mrs. Chen to refuse. After thinking for a while, she nodded and said: "In this case, you should prepare first. My wife will go there after changing clothes."

Seeing Chen's agreement, Xu's slightly suspended heart also relaxed, nodded respectfully and said: "I obey."

Looking at the back of Mrs. Xu leaving, Madam Yu said worriedly: "Ma'am, this Mrs. Xu is obviously not at peace, you'd better be careful, the servant will ask the small kitchen to prepare some snacks, for a while, anything that is not something we take out , you don’t want to take a single bite.” Naturally, they wouldn’t be afraid of ordinary poisoning methods, but Mrs. Xu is the daughter of Miracle Doctor Xu, so there may be some strange poisons, so they have to guard against them.
