Amazing Pastoral World: Unparalleled Medical Queen

Yu Qianxiu remained silent.

She glanced at the women present, and could clearly see the anger, rage, contempt, or disappointment on their faces.

She suddenly felt afraid.

She didn't know why she said those words just now.

In the past six months, she had heard Lu Ke'er's name many times from her grandfather and her father. When they talked about her, there was disbelief, admiration, and many inexplicable emotions mixed in.

She even sensed their regret from their few words. They regretted why Lu Ke'er was not born in the Yu family.

She had a vague feeling that her grandfather and father had been comparing her to Lu Ke'er intentionally or unintentionally.

Then she gradually became afraid.

She felt a vague sense of uneasiness in her heart: this peasant girl would be the biggest obstacle on her way forward.

She admitted that her words were too extreme and her comments on Lu Ke'er were slanderous. However, she couldn't control herself.

Lu Ke'er was just a little peasant girl. But she was a noble lady from a rich family. If Lu Ke'er was as lowly as grass, then Yu Qianxiu was as high as a cloud.

But now, so many people regard her as a remarkable woman and praise her highly.

How could she be willing to do so?

But what was the point of arguing? Soon, rumors would spread in the capital that she was jealous of a peasant girl.

"Sorry, I'm not feeling well. I'm leaving now." She said hurriedly, then went downstairs with her personal maid.

Wei Linger stared blankly at her figure, which seemed somewhat flustered and embarrassed, with inexplicable mixed feelings.

"Sister Yu... Sister Yu wasn't like this before." She said hesitantly, "She's just a little old-fashioned, but actually... actually she's still a very nice person."

"Maybe, she has always been such a person." Tong Qian suddenly said.

Wei Linger opened her mouth and argued feebly: "Sister Yu's grandfather was a tutor, he was of noble character and had strict family education. She...she is not that kind of person."

Tong Qian tapped her forehead: "A journey of a thousand miles tests a person's ability, and time reveals a person's true character. You are still a little too naive."

After that, he turned to Zi'er and ordered: "Give me those two bottles of facial masks."

Zi'er handed her the facial mask as she was told, and Tong Qian's maid immediately took out eight taels of silver to pay the bill.

Tong Qian took the mask and handed it to Wei Linger: "Here."

Wei Linger pointed at herself in surprise: "Did you buy it for me?"

"Good things should naturally be shared with good sisters." Tong Qian smiled slightly.

Wei Linger hesitated: "This... this is not good, right? Although I know you are not short of money, but... but..."

"Oh, it's just a few taels of silver." Tong Qian stuffed the mask into Wei Ling'er's hand, then turned around and said, "I have something else to do. I'll leave first. I'll come and play with you when I have time."

"Why are you all leaving? Isn't His Royal Highness Chang Sun coming?" Wei Linger held the facial mask, pouted, stamped her feet, and was angry.

Zhen Niang was stunned when she heard this, and replied, "Miss Wei, His Highness has already sent the plaque. He himself will not come again."

"Ah? But Brother Qian Jing said that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will be here later."

"Master Yu heard wrongly when he was chatting with my master just now." Zhen Niang said with a smile, "My master said that he had sent the invitation letter to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince three days ago. But he didn't say that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would definitely come."

"Brother Qian Jing can even misunderstand what I said." Wei Ling'er scolded, "Is Brother Qian Jing downstairs? I'll go find him."

Wei Linger handed the facial mask to her maid for safekeeping and ran downstairs.

Yu Qianjing was indeed downstairs. When he saw Wei Linger coming down, he opened his eyes wide.

"Hey, what's wrong with you guys? Qian Xiu just left without saying a word, and she ignored me no matter how I called her. Are you leaving too?"

"Brother Qianjing, you are lying!" Wei Linger ran up to Yu Qianjing, put her hands on her hips and yelled at him.

"What did I lie about?"

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will not come today at all!" Wei Linger pouted angrily.

"I just realized that His Highness will not come." Yu Qianjing blinked, "Could it be that Qianxiu also left in anger because she was angry that I lied to her?"

"That...not really."

"Then why did she leave without even saying hello?"

"Maybe... maybe... she doesn't like that Miss Lu." Wei Linger explained hesitantly.

"What? Miss Lu? Lu Ke'er?" Yu Qianjing's voice became louder, and Rong Zhixing, who was sitting by the window and drinking tea slowly, couldn't help but look over.

Yu Qianjing lowered her voice and asked doubtfully, "Qianxiu doesn't know Miss Lu. How could she not like her?"

"I... I don't know either. Anyway... Anyway, just now upstairs, Sister Yu said... said some unpleasant things to Miss Lu." Wei Linger said, "We were all unhappy when we heard it just now. I admire Miss Lu very much. She is an amazing person."

Upon hearing this, Yu Qianjing couldn't help but look at the girl in front of him with new eyes and sized her up again.

"You...what are you looking at?" Wei Linger's face suddenly turned red.

"I didn't see anything. I just suddenly realized..." Yu Qianjing paused and smiled, "You seem to have grown up."

"You mean, I was a child before?" Wei Linger was angry.

She hates it most when people say she is still a child.

She has grown up a long time ago!

Rong Zhixing came over at this time, coughed, suppressed his smile, and said: "Miss Wei, Qian Jing means that you are grown up now and can get married."

Wei Linger stared at him and her face turned even redder.

Yu Qianjing was furious: "Rong Mutou, stop talking nonsense! That's not what I meant!"

"Why are you panicking? I didn't say that Miss Wei can marry you when she grows up. I only said that she has grown up and can get married."

"Rong Mutou, shut up!"

The two began to argue with each other.

Wei Linger's pretty face had turned red like an apple. She felt embarrassed and annoyed, and cursed, "You're sick!" Then, she hurried away, her back looking like she was fleeing in desperation.

"When you go back, find out why your sister hates Miss Lu." Seeing that there were no outsiders around, Rong Zhixing's face darkened.

Yu Qianjing also put away his playful smile and nodded solemnly: "Don't worry, I will take care of it."

"Although the rebel king led the rebels to hide in Qianlong City, there must be many of his followers lurking in the capital. His Highness has ordered that this part of the forces must be eliminated in the shortest possible time. He does not want Miss Lu to face unknown dangers after welcoming her to the capital in the future." Whenever Lu Ke'er is involved, Rong Zhixing's heart is tense. He looks at Yu Qianjing with a serious expression: "Qianjing, your sister can't hate Miss Lu for no reason. Among them..."

"Are you worried that someone is instigating you?" Yu Qianjing asked.
