Traveling through ancient times.

Xiao Cui, who was hiding in the corner, felt her scalp tingling when she saw Yun Xin's miserable appearance.

Before, she always thought that her brother-in-law... Oh no, her master was a gentle and modest gentleman, who spoke softly and nicely, and never said harsh words to them, the servants. He was hundreds or thousands of times better than those rough folks.

The maids also whispered in her ears: Madam's health may never recover, let alone give birth to children for the master. You are so beautiful, if you can give birth to a boy or a girl for the master, even if you can't be the main wife, at least you can be a concubine. It's better than being a maid with no future for life. If you are a maid, when you reach a certain age, the master will randomly assign you to a mud-legged servant, and the children you give birth to will still be servants... But if you become a concubine, it will be different. Master Ning will be the head of the family in the future, and the children you give birth to will be young ladies and young masters, and you will be born to be the master...

She was not satisfied with the status quo, and after hearing these people talk so much, her heart was aroused.

But now, Xiao Cui felt a chill running down her spine - moody and vicious. This was the label she had given Master Ning.

Just now, she hid aside and saw the whole thing:

In her opinion, the dispute between Yunxin and Xu Ma was simple and clear: Yunxin only went to get the stove to boil medicine for the young lady. Xu Ma only said that the stove was to be used to cook lotus seed soup for the master and the young master...

If Mr. Ning had any regard for his wife, he would never have slapped Yun Xin in the face for disobeying an elder. How could she speak after her mouth was bruised?!

Logically speaking, for a maid who has been scheming to win the master's favor and climb into his bed, shouldn't she be secretly happy to see that the master has no feelings for his mistress?

On the contrary, Xiao Cui had witnessed how gentle and affectionate the master was to his wife. At least everyone in the house knew how deeply in love this son-in-law was to his young lady.

And now, all of this is suddenly overturned. It can be seen that all the kindness and tenderness before were just a disguise - the purpose is self-evident.

This was the real reason why Xiao Cui felt fear and inexplicable dread - she felt that even if she succeeded in climbing into bed with her trick, her fate would definitely not be better than that of her current wife.

This time she realized that if she wanted to survive in this house, climbing into bed would not work.

So I still have to rely on my wife...but this wife is too weak to be helped.

Even if she gave her all for her, she couldn't get more benefits for them, and couldn't even provide the most basic protection, just like Yunxin.

Those who scolded her and stepped on her behind her back, such as Xu Ma, Jiao Auntie, and Liu Zi, often said bad things about her outside and withheld her food.

This is also the reason why she couldn't stand Yunxin's loyalty to such a useless person.

But when I saw Yunxin's fate at this moment, I felt a sense of grief for the deceased and felt very sad.

Never mind. Although the two of them didn't get along very well, after working together for several years, she couldn't bear to see her lying on the cold ground.

Yucui took the opportunity when everyone had left to quickly step forward and help Yunxin up.

Yunxin woke up a little and didn't expect Xiaocui to help her at this time. She whimpered.

Yucui said impatiently, "Okay, just calm down. Look at you, why did you make yourself like this just for such a useless person?"

"Xiao Cui——"

A slightly low and hoarse voice sounded behind the two of them.

Yucui's body shuddered, she paused, turned around, and saw Jiang Yizhou standing in the shadows. She felt inexplicably guilty.

She usually annoyed others, but at this moment, this person who stood in the darkness and calmed down without knowing when, made her feel a little afraid.

She adjusted her mood, stiffened her neck and said stubbornly: "It's all your fault that Yunxin is like this. Are you satisfied now? If it wasn't for getting you that stove, would Yunxin have quarreled with the people in the backyard? It's not like you don't know those people..."

Jiang Yizhou ignored the other party's words and said calmly: "Come here——"

Yucui always felt that something was wrong with the Madam today. Not only did she not move forward, but she took a small step back. "What... are you going to do?"

Oh, this girl is really stubborn.

Jiang Yizhou: "Take this money and buy some medicine for Xin'er."

The two taels of silver that Yunxin had just brought back in the evening were now used on Yunxin intact.

"Woo-"

Yun Xin whimpered and shook her head frantically. That was the last bit of money the young lady had. Her injury was nothing serious, just a swollen face and a broken lip. She looked a little embarrassed, but in fact, it would be fine in a few days.

Although he was beaten by Liuzi and Zhou Da just now, he still saw the whole thing clearly - the son-in-law seemed to ask about the young lady's condition very gently, and asked someone to bring the stove over, saying that he would take good care of the young lady. But he did not take out a penny from his pocket, and did not even ask his servant Qihao to go to the account office to withdraw some money for the young lady, and did not even ask if she had dinner.

She used to think that her son-in-law was really considerate and gentle, but after this beating, she finally understood: as long as he didn't take the money, he was not sincere to the young lady.

All of the young lady's jewelry has been pawned, and this is the only money she has. It seems that the son-in-law is unlikely to give her money... She doesn't even have money to buy scones secretly outside, what should she do? !

Yucui saw that Yunxin was still thinking about saving money for his wife at this time. If she didn't apply medicine on her face, she might be left with scars, and her life would be ruined.

He couldn't help but pinch the other person's waist, then quickly took two steps towards Jiang Yizhou and took the silver.

It is now the end of the Xu hour, but fortunately Doctor Liu's house is not far from here, and they are old acquaintances, so I think he should open the door for me to get the medicine.

Yucui took the silver and ran out.

He came back panting in less than half an hour, and began to apply medicine to Yunxin.

There is also a packet of anti-inflammatory medicine that needs to be boiled.

On the other side, a small stove was finally moved from the backyard. It was similar to the coal stove in Jiang Yizhou's original world, but smaller in size.

The two little girls, Xiaoyu and Xiaoyi, had their faces flushed from carrying so much wood. Then they ran twice to bring back a few bundles of wood as well as jars and buckets.

Xiaoyu also carefully selected some small branches and a handful of wood shavings to start the fire.

Jiang Yizhou asked Xiao Cui to prepare Yunxin's medicine first. Yunxin was her most capable person now and she must not fall down like this.

Yucui's face was full of resentment, and she scolded herself for being stupid and shouldn't have come close to her before.

Now all these things fall on her. It seems that she won’t have a good sleep tonight.

After giving the instructions, Jiang Yizhou went back to his room to rest.

Nothing should happen to the two girls, Yucui and Yunxin, for the time being.

Back in the room, she quickly closed the lid of the toilet and opened the window of the room.

Although the smell is really addictive and it hurts the enemy by a thousand while hurting yourself by two thousand, it has to be said that it is quite effective.

Tongzi: ...You are still the best.

Jiang Yizhou called Yucui and said, "Take the toilet outside."
