At this moment, Li was kneeling in the Buddhist temple and chanting scriptures.

She said she was chanting sutras, but her heart was not at all in worshiping Buddha.

She just wanted to punish Lu Chenshuang and make her stand outside to behave herself. She wanted Lu Chenshuang to know that she neglected her mother-in-law and she, the old lady, was angry.

Just as Li's legs were numb from kneeling and she tried to get up and move around, Nanny Xia hurried in.

Li instantly closed his eyes again, looking completely focused.

Nanny Xia hesitated for a moment but still walked forward and called out "Madam".

Li hummed slowly, then asked, "Does Lu Chenshuang know that she is wrong?"

Nanny Xia said with difficulty: "Madam, she didn't want to wait outside and turned around and left.

You are simply not taking me seriously, Madam."

Li was very angry when she heard this. She could no longer kneel and stood up with a bang.

But because I had been kneeling for too long, my legs were numb.

He lost his balance and fell forward, hitting his head hard on the incense table.

Nanny Xia was also frightened and hurried forward to help Li up.

By the dim candlelight in the Buddhist temple, she discovered that the lady's forehead was bright red.

Nanny Xia was startled and shouted in horror: "Ah~, Madam's forehead is bleeding."

Originally, Li just felt a burning pain on her forehead, nothing serious.

But when Nanny Xia shouted like that, Li also began to feel frightened.

Then he touched his forehead, looked at the blood on his hands, and fainted with fright.

Nanny Xia became even more frightened and shouted outside: "Quick! Someone come quickly! The Madam has fainted."

Soon Ci'an Hall fell into chaos.

Lu Chenshuang brought Xiaoman and Guyu back to her yard refreshed.

The two girls walked behind Lu Chenshuang and looked at each other from time to time. There was something wrong with their girls, something was very wrong.

This is not the style of these girls at all, but it feels so good.

After Lu Chenshuang sat down, she asked Guyu to make her a pot of tea.

Xiaoman was waiting on the side. Seeing Lu Chenshuang's satisfied look, she couldn't help but ask, "Miss, how dare you disobey the Madam today?"

Lu Chenshuang glanced at him and said with a smile: "Xiaoman, please don't frame your daughter.

When did I disobey the Madam?"

Xiaoman thought about it carefully and it seemed that there really was no one, because they had not even seen the lady at all.

But Xiaoman still spoke in a low voice: "But Aunt Xia obviously wants the jewelry from us, so you should behave yourself."

Lu Chenshuang looked at Xiaoman and smiled: "You are a smart girl.

But do I have to give it to them if they ask for it? My things are not blown by the wind.

Besides, it wasn’t the Madam who asked for it personally.

No matter how much you talk about it, it's nothing more than an old slave taking advantage of others' power."

Although Nanny Xia's words were instructed by the Dowager Lady, the Dowager Lady did not ask her directly for it.

Even if the lady asked her directly for Lu Chenshuang, she would not agree.

Lu Chenshuang felt a pang of pain when she thought that many of the good things in the warehouse had been taken away by the lady either openly or secretly.

No, she had to find a way to transfer her property.

She had made up her mind to divorce Jing Zhaoyan, and her things could not be lost to the Jingyang Marquis's family.

But at present, she has no capable people around her except Xiaoman and Guyu.

It seems that it is urgent to build up one's own power.

There are not many useful people in the palace, and it is not only time-consuming and laborious to conquer them, but it may not be successful in the end.

Because many servants in Jingyang Marquis's mansion are family-born children, and all family members work in the mansion, the relationships between them are very complicated and it is not easy to subdue them.

The best way at the moment is to buy people from outside the city.

Just as Lu Chenshuang was thinking about this, Guyu hurried in with a servant.

Guyu whispered something in Lu Chenshuang's ear. Lu Chenshuang looked up in surprise and glanced at the servant who was standing beside her trembling with fear.

Is it so early to give her a surprise? So he asked: "What's your name? Which courtyard do you serve in?"

The servant quickly replied: "Madam, my name is Lai Bao, I am an errand boy from the outer courtyard, and I have just entered the mansion not long ago."

Lu Chenshuang nodded and said, "Okay, thank you for your hard work.

Guyu, reward him with ten taels of silver.

If you hear any news in the future, you can tell me.

Naturally, your benefits are indispensable.

Of course, if you encounter any difficulties, you can come to me."

Upon hearing this, the servant named Lai Bao kowtowed to express his gratitude.

He sold himself to the marquis's mansion in order to pay for his mother's medical treatment.

But even if he added the money he earned from selling his body to his monthly salary, it would not be enough to pay for his mother's medical treatment.

So he thought about finding a way to earn more medical expenses for his mother.

If we were to talk about who is the most generous and richest person in the entire Jingyang Marquis Mansion, it would naturally be Lu Chenshuang.

Today he was sent to call a doctor for the lady-in-waiting. In the lady-in-waiting's yard, he heard Nanny Xia applying eye drops to the lady beside her.

That means she wants the Madam to think of a way to teach Lu Chenshuang a lesson.

Lai Bao had not been in the mansion for long and did not know that the original owner was a bootlicker. He also did not have the money to honor the elderly in the mansion, so no one gave him any advice.

After hearing the news, he rushed over to tell Lu Chenshuang.

He was lucky. If it was the original owner, let alone giving him money, he would be lucky if he didn't get slapped in the face.

After Laibao left, Guyu and Xiaoman looked at Lu Chenshuang with some concern.

Xiao Man couldn't keep secrets, so she asked, "Miss, what should we do now? The Madam and that old servant are going to cause trouble for you."

Lu Chenshuang smiled and said, "Why are you in such a hurry? Let's get some sleep first."

After saying that, he stood up and went to his bedroom.

Xiaoman and Guyu were left looking at each other in bewilderment. What on earth was their girl doing? Why couldn't they understand?

Especially Xiaoman, who is a straightforward person.

Looking at Guyu, he asked: "What do you think happened to our girl? Could she be possessed by evil spirits?"

Gu Yu glared at her and said, "Don't talk nonsense, can we make up a story about a girl?

If this is heard by someone with ulterior motives and they get hold of the evidence, it will become the focus of attack.

Besides, haven’t you noticed that our girl is like a different person, very opinionated and will definitely not suffer any loss.

Since the girl wants to sleep, we will just guard the door for her."

Xiaoman nodded after hearing this, and the two of them squatted outside the door.

Lu Chenshuang slept very soundly and slept until dark.

I didn't get up until dinner time.

Looking at the large table of food in front of her, Lu Chenshuang began to eat with relish.

In no time, most of the food on the table was eaten.

She developed this eating habit in the army. Although as a doctor she knew that chewing food slowly was the key to health, this habit was deeply rooted in her bones.

Lu Chenshuang had just put down her bowl and chopsticks when she heard Guyu say that Nanny Xia was here again.

Lu Chenshuang smiled when she heard this. It seemed that her estimation was quite accurate.
