After the mistress of the Marquis's Mansion awakened, she no longer wanted to be the mistress o

Old Madam Sima originally wanted to scold Li Qingwan directly, but she actually saw Li Qingwan coming over with a bowl of black medicine in her hand. At this moment, her accumulated anger was slowly suppressed. She knew that everything should be done rationally, and as the old madam of the Sima family, she must not lose her composure before she understood the whole situation!

She also couldn't let Li Qingwan, the stepping stone, become even more dissatisfied with her!

"Mother, calm down. Qingwan has just gone to make medicine. Ah Yue, are you feeling better?"

"Madam, I am fine now."

Sima Yue felt a little embarrassed. He was beaten by a colleague on his first day at the job. If this got out, he would be laughed at. Moreover, he was really dissatisfied with standing with those inferior people.

and so……

"Mother, this matter has nothing to do with Qingwan. It's all my fault!"

"Your fault?"

Madam Sima turned to look at Sima Yue who was lying on the bed, "Ah Yue, mother hasn't asked you yet, what position do you hold? Why did you fight with others on the first day and get beaten like this?"

"Mom, don't ask anymore. It's embarrassing."

"You also know how to be ashamed?"

Madam Sima turned to look at Li Qingwan again. Seeing that she didn't say a word, she forced a smile and said, "Qingwan, tell me what happened. Didn't your uncle arrange a good job for A Yue? How could he be beaten like this? These people are so bold. Don't they really give Lord Li any face at all?"

Listen to what nonsense Madam Sima said. Her son went to ask others for help with his career, and she still wanted to care whether his career was smooth or not?

When something goes wrong, he puts the blame on Lord Li first? He doesn't ask what good things his son has done?

It was clearly them who begged her to find the job her uncle had found, and now she was blaming her uncle for being too weak to protect Sima Yue?

"Mother, please calm down. Qingwan doesn't know much about this matter. I'm afraid I have to ask A Yue to find out. Uncle has tried his best to arrange a job for him, but I didn't expect..."

"Qing Wan, what do you mean by that? You were there that day, didn't you see how Li San humiliated me?"

"A Yue, I know you feel wronged, but a gentleman should use words instead of fists. How can you fight with Li San when you first arrive? He has been in Dongmen for decades. He is very familiar with the land there, and he has a group of brothers to help him. Now the result of this matter has not come out yet, so we can only wait!"

"Qing Wan, have you asked your uncle to come out and deal with them for me?"

"My uncle has passed away, but I don't know what the result is. Ah Yue, you should take good care of your injuries first. As for other things..."

"Wait, what are you talking about? What Li San, what brother? Qingwan, what position did your uncle assign to A Yue?"

Madam Sima wanted to find out what position Lord Li had assigned to her son, but Sima Yue was disgusted when he heard it, and almost blurted out, "Mother, don't mention it. I thought it was a good job, but I didn't expect..."

Sima Yue really disliked the job. After all, he was the eldest son of the Sima family. How could he stand guard at the East Gate? But he couldn't say it in front of Li Qingwan, so he swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth.

"I'm tired, you all should go out."

Sima Yue fell asleep immediately, and Li Qingwan naturally knew that Sima Yue didn't want to tell the truth in front of him, so she quickly put down the medicine bowl and said, "Ayue, you should take good care of your injuries first. As for today's matter, I will let my uncle try to deal with it. It is always wrong to hit people. Now we need to find out who did it first. Whoever started it is the one who provoked the incident!"

what?

Sima Yue suddenly felt a little flustered. He seemed to remember that he was the first to hit Li San. Suddenly, he felt a little panicked, "Qing Wan..."

"Don't worry, I will ask my uncle to give you justice. Take good care of your injuries. I will ask for leave for you in the next few days. You don't have to go. We can talk about it when your injuries are healed."

After that, Li Qingwan said to Madam Sima, "Mother, I still have a lot of things to deal with, so I'll take my leave first."

Although Madam Sima was dissatisfied, she still nodded and said, "Go ahead."

As soon as Li Qingwan left, Xiuzhu couldn't help crying anymore and squatted beside Sima Yue's bed, "Ah Yue, are you okay? Where did you get hit? Tell Xiuzhu and let her take a look."

Xiuzhu started to act pretentiously, but Sima Yue felt that Li Qingwan was too cruel to him. He was beaten like this, but Li Qingwan didn't say a single good word to him, and naturally she didn't care about him either.

Compared with Li Qingwan, Xiuzhu became the best woman to him. At this moment, his love for Xiuzhu rekindled.

"I'm fine. Don't cry and make people misunderstand. If Li Qingwan hears about it, it will be troublesome."

Even though he was beaten like this, he still did not forget to be on guard against Li Qingwan. Old Madam Sima was also very angry when she saw Xiuzhu crying, "Why are you crying? It's bad luck!"

"Madam, calm down. Xiuzhu is just worried about her husband's health. How could a healthy man be beaten like this? Lord Li didn't even say a word for you. It's really a waste of time trying to curry favor with him."

It would be fine if I didn't mention this matter. As soon as Sima Yue was mentioned, he was filled with anger. "Don't mention it. I thought he was Qingwan's uncle and would help me find a good job for Li Qingwan, but I didn't expect that he would let me go..."

"Ayue, what does Lord Li ask you to do?"

Madam Sima was indeed an old fox. In fact, she had already heard that she was not satisfied with her son's assignment.

She covered her mouth and coughed. Even though she was sitting in a wheelchair, she was still full of energy. "Ayue, say something!"

"Mom, don't mention it. I've been trying to please him for so long and I have this relationship with Li Qingwan. He arranged a..."

"What's the arrangement?"

Sima Yue was too embarrassed to say what his mother said. He felt terrible pain every time he moved. It was very uncomfortable. It seemed that two of his ribs were broken. He might not be able to get out of bed for more than a month.

"Ayue, the old lady is asking you a question."

Xiuzhu pretended to care about Sima Yue, which immediately restored Sima Yue's self-esteem as a man. In front of Li Qingwan, he had no manliness at all and was like a little husband who was bullied. Li Qingwan saw his most embarrassed and awkward side and she would not have any good impression of him.

"Ayue, tell mother."

Sima Yue also gave up, turned over as if he didn't want to face it, and said, "Let me go to the east gate to guard the city gate!"

"what?"

When Old Madam Sima learned that the career she had sought for so long would mean being a gatekeeper, she couldn't accept this. What was up with Li Qingwan as a stepping stone?

Why is she becoming increasingly useless?

"Mom, please don't ask me anymore. I have never suffered such injustice in my life. After all, I am the eldest son of the Sima family, and yet I am asked to..."

"Madam, did you hear that? Ah Yue has been assigned to guard the gate. This Lord Li has bad intentions and is disgusting us!"

Xiuzhu wanted to sow discord, but the old lady was not confused, "Shut up, you have no right to speak here!"

"Old lady..."

"Get out!"
