The Splendid Medical Concubine: The Journey of a Concubine
Chapter 13: 013 drive away
Chapter 13013 Drive away
What? ! The girl is sending her home? ! Liuli heard what Chu Qianchen meant, raised her head in disbelief, and said, "I'm really not a slave..."
Chu Qianchen interrupted her: "You are not young anymore. As a favor to you, girl, I won't drag you to match the boy."
Liuli is three years older than her, and is almost sixteen this year.
According to the rules of the house, maids are usually assigned a partner when they are eighteen years old, and those maids who are decent in front of their masters will continue to serve their masters as wives after marriage.
Liuli was just under sixteen years old, far from the age for a maid to get married.
When she was sent back by the Hou Mansion at this time, anyone would know that she had committed a crime and made her master displeased. What good future can she have after returning home? !
Thinking about it, the resentment in Liuli's eyes became even thicker, so thick that she could hardly hide it.
Chu Qianchen looked at Liuli with interest. In the last life, when he was thirteen years old, he was raised so obediently and gentle that he didn't even realize that the servants around him had long since left his heart.
"Go ahead." Chu Qianchen said calmly, "I don't want to say it again."
Liuli clenched her fists and raised her head and said, "Girl, have you asked my aunt?"
Chu Qianchen looked at Liuli quietly.
Liuli was given to her by Aunt Jiang. In her previous life, shortly after she was disfigured, Liuli's father went to Aunt Jiang and told her that she had arranged a marriage for Liuli and wanted to take her back...
However, not long after, Liuli became her father's maid.
When he thought of this, Chu Qianchen felt sick in his heart.
"In that case, then go back to your aunt." Chu Qianchen's voice was still delicate and soft, neither light nor heavy, neither sullen nor angry, but what he said made Liuli's heart skip a beat, "My temple here is small and there is no room for you. Go down."
Amber on the side looked at this scene and was almost stunned.
She knew how much the girl trusted Liuli, but she didn't expect that the girl would actually drive Liuli away now, and she would still act so resolutely without any sloppiness.
Amber calmed down, hurried over, pulled Liuli up from the ground, and said: "Liuli, please go down first, don't be in the girl's eyes here."
Liuli: "..."
Liuli bit her lower lip tightly.
She lowered her head, covering up the malice in her eyes, and said: "Yes, girl, I will go right now..."
She forcefully shook off Amber's hand holding her and went out without looking back.
Chu Qianchen didn't look at her at all and drank tea elegantly.
She had so many things to do in her new life, and she had no time to train a maid with alien intentions.
"Amber," Chu Qianchen ordered, "bring over all the things I just bought."
Amber came to her senses, responded, and hurriedly went to do it.
Chu Qianchen went out and bought a lot of things. In addition to silver needles, there were also some medicinal materials, medicine mortars and medicine pestles. Amber laid these things out one by one on the Eight Immortals table.
Chu Qianchen stood up and came to the Eight Immortals table, his eyes slowly sweeping over these things.
What she wants to do is make a pill.
The steps for making Dazao Pills are extremely complex and time-consuming, so you must prepare them quickly.
Of course, the medicinal materials she bought this time were far from enough. There were also many precious medicinal materials that were not so easy to obtain. Amber watched Chu Qianchen playing with the medicinal material, and a question arose in her heart again: Where did the girl learn medical skills?
"When I lived in Zhuangzi last year, I read several medical books in private." Chu Qianchen could naturally tell what Amber was wondering about, so he stopped talking without explaining too much.
She couldn't hide her medical skills from anyone, and she had no intention of hiding it. Even if she wanted to become famous for it, she couldn't keep a low profile.
Chu Qianchen's words might be able to coax others, but they couldn't coax Hu Bo, who was waiting for her personally. Hu Bo followed her to Zhuangzi last year. Hu Bo knew very well whether she had read any medical books.
What's more, medical skills can't be learned by just reading two books. This is just a public opinion.
Chu Qianchen stopped what he was doing and looked up at Amber a few steps away.
When she was in the Chu family in her last life, she only trusted Liuli and was alienated from the two maids Hu Huo and Liu Li. However, during the last time she was in the Chu family, it was Hu Huo who took care of her.
At that time, the Chu family was in chaos. Ever since Brother Mu passed away, his aunt Shen had been lingering on the bedside. Her health was in good and bad times, and the middle child in the family was also given to Chu Qianhuang.
And she was in a difficult situation in the Chu family.
Her food, clothing, and three meals a day were deprived of her. She was half-frozen to death in the severe cold weather and had a high fever. It was Amber who sought help from her aunt, who was seriously ill...
It was her aunt who made the decision to hire a doctor and punish the servant.
Sometimes, she would think that if her aunt had not run out of oil and failed to survive that winter, she might not have been kicked out of the Hou family.
However, now that Brother Mu is alive, his aunt may not have died so early.
Hu Bo did not avoid Chu Qianchen's gaze and said with a smile: "The bookstore that I frequent also sells medical books. The girl likes to read medical books. I will go and read them on my behalf tomorrow."
Whatever the girl says is what she says!
The girl herself is obsessed with the authorities, so she may not be able to tell, but she, the personal maid, can see it clearly. The girl is too obedient, and she is obviously better off than anyone else. Aunt Jiang, who gave birth to the eldest son of a concubine, is also quite favored. But in this house, anyone can bully a girl.
Aunt Jiang said she felt sorry for the girl, but she had never done anything for the girl. Instead, whenever something happened, she would push the girl out and push her in front.
No matter where the girl learned medical skills, it is certainly good to know how to hide her skills now.
The corners of Chu Qianchen's lips curled up, feeling that Hu Hua was thoughtful, and maybe it was time to put a few medical books on the bookshelf to show off.
"Bring me some more gauze." Chu Qianchen ordered, and Amber hurriedly went to do it.
Chu Qianchen carefully divided the purchased herbs one by one, took a few of them, cut them into pieces with scissors, put them into a medicine mortar, and then used a medicine pestle to carefully and slowly pound the herbs.
Her movements were unhurried, skillful and steady, and her expression was focused. The golden soft light outside the window fell on her body, as if it had coated her with a light layer of gold powder. She was as beautiful as a flower, which made people unable to move. Open your eyes.
Hu Huo, who walked in through the curtain, happened to see this scene and stared at Chu Qianchen blankly for a while.
Amber quickly came to her senses and walked quickly to Chu Qianchen with gauze in hand.
There was a light herbal fragrance filling the room.
Hu Bo put the gauze on the Eight Immortals table, and heard Chu Qianchen order again without raising his head: "Bring another small bowl, and then find some thin bamboo strips or small wooden sticks. You can make something for me later..."
Amber responded one by one and hurried down to prepare.
It took Chu Qianchen an hour to pound the medicinal materials in the medicine mortar into pulp. At the same time, Amber was not idle and made a simple bamboo shelf according to Chu Qianchen's instructions.
Chu Qianchen put down the medicine pestle, wrapped the syrup in the medicine mortar with gauze, and placed it on one of the bamboo shelves. The transparent light green medicine juice slowly dripped through the layers of gauze into the small bowl under the bamboo shelf. .
