Traveling through ancient times.

Xin'er argued: "This huge house belongs to the young lady, how come there is no food for the young lady? What are you doing..."

Xu Ma immediately became furious and interrupted the other person. She put her hands on her waist and pointed at the other person and shouted, "Yunxin, what are you talking about? Do you suspect that I have withheld the food in the house? This is the situation in the house now. It was arranged long ago. If you are not satisfied, go find the housekeeper or the master."

"You..." Isn't it true? In such a big house, the young lady can't even eat a chicken.

"What about me? If you are dissatisfied, you can go to the master and sue me. Go quickly and don't stand here and get in the way."

As Xu Ma spoke, she started to push Yunxin with every word.

"Mother Xu, don't forget that the master and his wife treated you very well..."

"Get out of here. You have no right to speak here. If it weren't for the fact that I worked with your mother before, I would have been rude to you a long time ago."

"..."

Xin'er was pushed out by Xu Ma. She knew that the maids in charge of the yard were a little overbearing, but it was not to the point of being like this. Now they even ignored the young lady's health.

It's been less than half a year since the master and mistress passed away, and it has become like this.

You have to know that Aunt Xu and Aunt Jiao are both elderly people who have followed the master and the mistress for many years. They have never been harsh to them. When the mistress left, she even called them to her bedside and gave them some instructions, hoping that they could assist the young lady wholeheartedly.

But unexpectedly... it's really heartbreaking.

Xin'er was turned down by Xu Ma and tears started to fall down her face.

When she returned to the yard, Doctor Liu had already written the prescription on the stone table in the yard, but Cui'er, who had served the young lady with her, was nowhere to be seen.

There was no time to go to the room to see how the young lady was doing, so he hurried to send for the doctor.

The young lady's private money had long been drained away bit by bit, and she could only go to the accounting office to withdraw money.

But the accountant Jiang said: No one can withdraw a penny unless there is a note from Master Ning.

He also said in a earnest manner: "What can a woman like Mrs. Ning understand? The Ning family is so big that it has to spend all kinds of money. Has she earned a penny? It's just a cold, why are you making such a fuss? Look at the women in other families, which one of them would go to the doctor for help at every turn? Doctor Liu's consultation fee is the most expensive, I think we should not use him anymore in the future..."

"This entire Jiang family was left to Miss Jiang by Mr. and Mrs. Jiang. How come..." Can't we use silver?

"Xin'er, I watched you grow up. I want to kindly remind you not to keep mentioning the Jiang family. How can a woman support such a big house? Don't you see that those people have long wanted to swallow everything here alive? If it weren't for Master Ning's mediation, not to mention that your young lady can now hire a doctor, I don't think she would even have a place to live. Xin'er, you have to remember that this is the Ning family, and Master Ning is the owner here."

"you……"

"As a man, you must know the times. You must know the circumstances. I know you are loyal to Mrs. Ning, but this family cannot survive without Master Ning. If you want to continue working here, be careful with what you say and do in the future. Don't..."

Xin'er grabbed the fifty cents that housekeeper Jiang had taken and left angrily. Before leaving, she took off the silver hairpin that the young lady had given her before, and handed it to Doctor Liu when she got outside.

...Doctor Liu sighed as he left. Who would have thought that the Jiang family, which was once so prosperous, would end up in this state because they had no son to inherit the family.

So, after all, women cannot hold up the facade.

So what if I marry a son-in-law?

If he had any ability, would he let a woman like you ride on his head?

How could you willingly let your son take someone else's surname?

People with a conscience might still leave you a way to live and have something to eat, but if you meet someone a little cruel, who knows - after all, your existence will constantly remind him of the shame of being a gigolo.

Hey--

In the end, Doctor Liu did not take Xin'er's silver hairpin. He just told her that Miss Jiang needed rest and proper nourishment and conditioning. Otherwise, even if she could survive this time, the root of the disease would remain, which would damage her essence and affect her fate.

She had been living a life of luxury for more than 20 years. She could have lived to be 70 or 80 years old. But she had wasted her life in just a few months?

Now……

In a nutshell: Even if you survive, you won’t live long.

Xin'er saw Doctor Liu off and thought to herself, how could his body not be exhausted?

After the master and mistress left, the young lady was the only one running the house. The servants thought that the young lady was kind and could be bullied, so they took advantage of her everywhere.

The son-in-law was the same. Although the Jiang family's business outside was very important, those uncles and rivals all wanted to take a bite. Because he was too busy, he ignored the young lady and didn't pay much attention to the affairs in the house, which made those servants more daring.

The young lady also told me not to bother him with the trivial matters in the backyard... Xiner felt that she should have a good talk with her son-in-law and punish those guys who pretended to obey her but actually disobeyed her.

This fall into the water was the last straw that broke the camel's back.

The accountant won't give the young lady money for her medical treatment, and even the kitchen staff won't give her food... How can this continue?

No matter what, this time, whether the young lady agrees or not, she will go and tell her son-in-law.

Xin'er was thinking about her worries as she returned to the central courtyard with the prescription and the silver hairpin. She saw the maids and old women gathered in the pavilion drinking tea, eating snacks and chatting. One of them was Cui'er.

Why is she here?

Wasn't she asked to stay in the room to look after the young lady?

"Xiao Cui, come here and get the medicine for Miss according to this prescription."

Xiao Cui subconsciously wanted to stand up, but a maid next to her pulled her clothes, so she sat down on the stool steadily.

"Why should I go? Can't you go by yourself?"

A woman next to her was chewing melon seeds while she said in a sarcastic tone, "I think Madam Ning is just pretending to be sick. Why bother asking a doctor for medicine? If it were me, I would just wait for a few days and get better on my own."

Another woman said, "That's right. Instead of wasting money on medicine jars, it's better to save some for your son. People should not be too selfish..."

Xin'er was furious. The young lady was just sick, and she asked the doctor to treat her illness and prescribe medicine. How could it be selfish?

Since the master and his wife passed away four months ago, everyone in the family has changed.

Three days ago, the young lady accidentally fell into the pond while playing with the young master.

The pond was not deep, but the young lady had been in severe physical condition these days. She was frightened after being immersed in the cold water and has been in a coma ever since. Now that she has finally woken up, everyone has completely torn off their disguises.

She was thinking about the young lady in her heart and couldn't leave her in the room.

Xiao Cui must have followed him when he left earlier. She had heard the doctor say that the young lady needed to replenish her body, so she planned to go to the kitchen first and ask them to prepare chicken soup and millet porridge. However, she was met with a cold shoulder. After she came out to see the doctor off, she was scolded by the accountant and the housekeeper. This time, when she returned to the yard, she was ridiculed by this group of servants again.

Xin'er was so angry that she was shaking all over, but there was nothing she could do but rush back.

As soon as I entered the room, I saw the young lady lying straight on the bed, staring blankly at the top of the gauze curtain.

Xin Er panicked immediately and stepped forward: "Miss, Miss, are you okay? Miss, what happened to you? You..."
