Sima Yue was also hesitant about using Li Qingwan as a stepping stone. If it were in the past, he would naturally think so, but now...

He suddenly realized that he seemed to like Li Qingwan, so...

"Brother Yue, when she becomes more and more powerful, you won't be able to control her at all!"

"Why not? Qingwan loves me, and this is her best weakness. Sima Guling, next time you say something bad about your sister-in-law, don't say that I, as her brother, don't recognize my relatives. Do you understand?"

After saying this, Sima Yue left in anger. Seeing him leave in anger, Sima Guling became even more furious, "You will regret it. I will definitely prove to you that she no longer loves you!"

"That's enough. I don't want to hear this nonsense. Didn't you tell me that you made all her medicine? If you want to steal the credit from Li Qingwan, why don't you go and get the medicine?"

Sima Guling: “…”

She was immediately embarrassed. How come he even knew about this?

Sima Yue naturally knew it, but he didn't expect Sima Guling to say that she was the one who made the medicine. It was obviously Qingwan who made it?

Is she right to take credit for other people's work?

"Brother Yue, I just..."

"Ling'er, you really disappoint me. How much of what you said is true?"

Sima Guling didn't expect that she was just telling a small lie, but was discovered by Sima Yue. She was a little embarrassed and wanted to explain, but Sima Yue didn't give her any chance.

"If you target your sister-in-law again in the future, get out of the Sima family!"

"Sima Yue, what are you talking about? You want me to get out? We are relatives!"

"How are the relatives?"

Sima Yue snorted coldly, raised his eyes and rolled his eyes at her, "I'm not a good person to begin with, you better take care of yourself!"

"Hey, Brother Yue, don't be angry, ah..."

"Miss, have we misunderstood Li Qingwan? Look, the eldest master is now on her side!"

"How could I possibly misunderstand her? Brother Yue and I are cousins, but now because of that woman, Brother Yue doesn't like me anymore. It's all because of that woman."

"Miss, what should we do now?"

Sima Guling felt a headache, but she soon calmed down, "Has Xiuzhu woken up?"

"I heard you're awake, what are you going to do, miss?"

A calculating look flashed across Sima Guling's eyes. "It will be easy once she wakes up. Xiuzhu is not an easy person to deal with either. Let's go get the medicine!"

She wanted to portray a filial image in front of her aunt and absolutely could not let Li Qingwan fulfill her filial duty.

In the kitchen, Li Qingwan was putting some black powder into the medicine, and then stirring it carefully with a silver hairpin. Only when she was done was she satisfied.

This is the second dose.

"Madam, Sima Guling is here."

Zi'er walked forward and saluted her, while behind her, Sima Guling came over enthusiastically, "Sister-in-law, is the medicine ready? I'll bring it."

"Okay, Ling'er, take it?"

Li Qingwan pretended to be distressed and said, "Let me carry it. You are the third daughter of the Sima family. When have you ever done such rough work?"

"Hey, sister-in-law, I can do these, just give them to me. Auntie complains of headache and needs to take medicine first."

Sima Guling naturally didn't want her aunt to know that the medicine was made by Li Qingwan. She had already told everyone that she made it herself, so she had to keep lying.

"Then I'll trouble you, Ling'er."

"You are too polite, sister-in-law. It is not easy for you to manage the Sima family. Ling'er will do it. Remember to meet my aunt later."

Li Qingwan had long seen through Sima Guling. Since she wanted to please the old woman, let her do it to her heart's content. After all, she was the one who delivered the medicine to the old woman herself!

"Madam, I heard that the Third Miss lied to the old lady, saying that she brewed the medicine herself."

"Humph, how can there be such a shameless person?"

Ah Qing really couldn't bear to listen any more. How could she have expected that Sima Guling would actually take the lady's credit as her own?

Li Qingwan was very happy, "This is exactly the effect I want."

Ah Qing: "..."

"Ma'am, why is this?"

Li Qingwan ignored them and said, "Let's go and see how Hu'er is doing."

"Madam, Master Zhuang wants to see you."

In the inner room, Li Qingwan personally poured a cup of tea and handed it to Master Zhuang, "Master, you have worked hard, have a cup of tea."

"You're welcome, madam."

In fact, Li Qingwan had always wanted to ask why Master Zhuang suddenly changed his mind and wanted to come to the mansion to be a teacher, but she felt that this was very abrupt.

"Master, did the old lady embarrass you today?"

Master Zhuang naturally knew about the infighting in the Sima Mansion, so he chose to avoid all trouble. "Madam, you are too serious. The old lady just wants me to accept the young master. I have explained it to the old lady clearly. The young master is really gifted. I am not well-educated and cannot teach such a genius child."

These words were obviously excuses. Li Qingwan would have been angry, after all, the child was hers. But she was not angry at all. "Teacher, I am very grateful that you can come to Sima Mansion. Don't worry, I will not let you feel any pressure when you come here to teach. You just need to teach Hu'er well. As for Run'er..."

She paused, then said, "You don't have to worry about Run'er. I'll trouble you with Hu'er in the future."

Master Zhuang was naturally a smart man and knew what Li Qingwan meant at a glance, but he also felt strange as to why she didn't say a word for her son?

Or does she have other plans?

"You are too polite, Madam. Hu'er is an obedient child and has talent. As long as he is trained well, he will definitely achieve something in the future."

"In that case, thank you very much, Master."

After she finished speaking, she immediately said to the outside, "Hu'er, why don't you bring the things over?"

Outside, Hu Er came up to Master Zhuang with two fish and a piece of pork belly in his hands, "Master, please accept my student's greeting."

"Oh, Mr. Tiger, that's so polite!"

"Madam, this is unacceptable!"

"Master, you must accept it. This is a small gift from your student."

Hu'er brought pork belly and fish, and decided to show Master Zhuang his only teacher in this life. This was the greatest respect for Master Zhuang, and he was very happy.

"Thank you, ma'am!"

"Tiger, follow the teacher and learn skills from him in the future, okay?"

"I understand, elder sister."

Here, Li Qingwan was about to send Master Zhuang out of the house, but before leaving, she couldn't help but said, "Master, please stay."

Master Zhuang was returning with a load of meat and fish. When he saw her calling him, he turned around and asked, "Madam, what else can I do for you?"

"Master, there is one thing I don't understand. Please help me. You clearly refused that day..."

"Madam, this matter is also fate. I will tell you the truth. I really didn't want to come to Sima Mansion at that time because..."

"Because of what?"

Master Zhuang saw that there was no one around, so he whispered, "It's because of Madam's friend."

"my friend?"
