Sima Guling: “…”

No way. If Li Qingwan doesn't make the medicine, and then delays sending the medicine, her aunt will become suspicious of her. What should I do? No, I must let her teach me how to make the medicine!

"But sister-in-law, my aunt's health is more important. Do you want business over mother-in-law?"

"how come?"

Sima Guling's behavior was exactly what Li Qingwan wanted. She smiled and said, "Mother-in-law's health is important, but business is equally important!"

"Then what should I do? You want to go out and do something but I don't know how to do it. This..."

"Ling'er, don't worry. You are so smart that you will definitely be able to learn it. Go and boil it, and then send it to your aunt after you boil it."

How could Sima Guling, a young lady who had never touched women, make any medicine? "But I..."

"what happened?"

"I don't know how to do it, sister-in-law, please don't make it difficult for me, just help me!"

Sima Guling stretched out her hand and tried to act coquettishly to ask Li Qingwan to help her, and Li Qingwan naturally went along with it, pretending to be embarrassed, "How about this, I really can't spare the time, but I will keep Zi'er and let her help you, how about that?"

"Really, sister-in-law, you are such a good person!"

Sima Guling really thought that Li Qingwan wanted to help her this time, and Zi'er was a little worried when she saw this. After all, the old woman's medicine was made by the lady, and she had no involvement.

"Madam, I'm worried that I won't be able to endure it."

"I'll give you the recipe, Zi'er. There will be no problem if you follow the recipe. I have to go now."

"Hey, sister-in-law, sister-in-law..."

Seeing that Li Qingwan had left the maid behind, Sima Guling did not chase after her, "Girl, I leave it to you!"

"Oh, is it Aunt Zhang?"

Aunt Zhang was actually able to get out of bed, which made Sima Guling immediately snatch the prescription and said, "Give it to me, I will prepare it myself."

It was noon and the sun was high in the sky.

Arriving at the workshop, Ah Qing helped Li Qingwan out and said, "Madam, I don't quite understand why you let Sima Guling..."

"There will be a wonderful show to watch when we get back."

"A good show?"

Ah Qing didn't know what trap the Madam had set. Could it be...

"Oh, my lady is here. Please come in quickly. Someone is coming from the palace. Eunuch Wang is waiting for you!"

"Is the eunuch here?"

Knowing that the eunuch had arrived, she was naturally very happy. After entering, the eunuch Wang and others were waiting there, "Madam Sima!"

"I pay my respects to you, sir!"

"Mrs. Sima, you are polite."

Eunuch Wang looked at her with a smile and was very respectful to her. "Madam Sima, your good luck has come. The cloth made by your Sima Mansion is very popular with the Seven Colors Weaving Master. Now the weaving master has decided to use the cloth from you and the Su family. You should get ready quickly. Perhaps the imperial edict from the palace will arrive soon."

Hearing this, Li Qingwan was in a good mood. She seemed to have guessed this result a long time ago, but she still had a trump card that she had not used yet.

"Thank you, sir. Please take a seat."

"I won't sit down here anymore. I still have to go to the Su family to do some work. Madam Sima, someone from the palace will come to the Sima family today. Please be ready."

After saying that, Eunuch Wang was ready to leave, but after a few steps, he suddenly thought of something and turned to look at Li Qingwan meaningfully, "Madam Sima has met a noble man, she will be very successful, don't forget about my family in the future."

what?

Li Qingwan didn't know what Eunuch Wang meant. What kind of noble person had she met?

"Sir, I don't quite understand what you mean."

"You will understand. Goodbye, ma'am."

Eunuch Wang looked at her with great respect, which made Li Qingwan feel very strange. Nobleman, what kind of nobleman did she meet? Could it be that her uncle helped her?

"Aqing."

"lady."

"Prepare some of the two-color brocade we just wove, and let's go to Li's house."

"Madam, the people arranged by the old lady have arrived. What do you think?"

Li Qingwan then remembered that the old woman had planted someone to monitor her. She was really unwilling to give up. However, she was not impatient. "Treat her well and wait for me to come back."

When Li Qingwan arrived at her uncle's house, her aunt was very happy to see that she brought a lot of good things.

"Oh, I've never seen this kind of cloth before, Qingwan, what new product is this?"

"Aunt, this is the two-color brocade made in our workshop. I'll send some over to you and your uncle to make a few sets of clothes."

"Oh, Qingwan, you are so polite. We are all family, why would you send me fabrics? Come and sit down. Your uncle will be here soon."

It is said that Li Qingwan handled the social etiquette very well and made her aunt treat her very well. After Li Qingwan sat down, the smile on her aunt's face faded.

"Qingwan, tell your aunt the truth, do you really want to help your husband find a career?"

This made Li Qingwan puzzled, "Aunt, what do you mean by this?"

Mrs. Li is also a straightforward woman. She likes her niece Li Qingwan very much. At least she is sensible and polite, especially she helped her uncle a lot last time. Boss Su has been arrested. Fortunately, they did not agree to cooperate, otherwise they would be implicated and the Li family would be finished!

Therefore, she was still very grateful to Li Qingwan, and she didn't want her niece to be confused.

"Qingwan, your aunt treats you as her own daughter. Your parents died early. There are some things that your aunt wants to prevent your father from doing. Your husband is a piece of shit!"

Li Qingwan saw that her aunt knew that Sima Yue was not a good person, so she pretended to be confused and asked, "Aunt, did Ah Yue do something wrong to offend you?"

"Of course not. Auntie just looks down on him from the bottom of her heart. Just think about it, a grown man relies on his wife to support his family and has to use your dowry to make a living. What else can such a man be but a coward?"

Auntie belittled Sima Yue as if he was worthless, but Li Qingwan coughed and said, "But auntie, I'm already married!"

"It's because you're married that your aunt kindly reminds you. Don't worry, be careful. I don't think that boy is a good person. You'd better not let him get into the officialdom. Otherwise, if he gets power, you will be the one who is unlucky, Qingwan, do you understand?"

"Madam, why are you talking to Qingwan about this?"

Outside, Lord Li arrived, and Li Qingwan immediately stood up, "Uncle."

"Qingwan is here. Have you had tea?"

"Drink it, uncle. I came here today to thank you. I didn't expect that you would help Qingwan."

This puzzled Lord Li. He frowned and looked at her, "Qingwan, I don't understand what you mean. When did I help you?"

Li Qingwan: “…”

When she told him the story, Lord Li was shocked. "What? You've been chosen! This is such a great thing!"

"Yes, Qingwan, why didn't you say it just now? If you are favored by the palace, then you will have a bright future. You and your nephew should have a good chat. Your aunt will have someone prepare wine and food so that we can celebrate properly."

"Aunt, don't bother yourself. The old lady is not feeling well and I have to go back to see her. I just want to ask you, uncle, did you help me with this matter?"
