I accidentally became the Eighth Lady in the Qing Dynasty

Chapter 244: Sensing Something is Wrong

The Tenth Lady looked at Yunyan with a blank expression, and there was a hint of anger in her tone that she herself was not aware of!

Tenth Lady: "No..., my master never told me that!"

The Ninth Lady also followed the Tenth Lady's words and continued. She was even more angry than the Tenth Lady because Ran hadn't seen Old Nine for several days. If it weren't for the Ninth Lady, who could still see the people serving Old Nine, she would have thought that Old Nine had an accident somewhere.

The Ninth Lady said with a hint of suppressed anger: "Eighth Sister-in-law, you don't know. Not to mention that he told me, I didn't even see him. I don't know where he went to fool around!"

The Ninth Lady's complaints made the Crown Princess and the others not know what to say. After all, they were just sisters-in-law. No matter how much they cared about the affairs between the couple, they were too embarrassed to intervene. At most, they could only complain a few words behind their backs!

However, the Ninth Concubine's complaints also let the Crown Princess and the others know that the Ninth Concubine's patience had reached its limit, otherwise, given her interest, she would never have said these things out loud!

Although this is something they know, they also have their own pride and will not let others notice their sadness!

The Tenth Lady was also immediately surprised and said: "Nuomin, Ninth Brother, you have been elusive for a while!"

When the Ninth Concubine first heard what the Tenth Concubine said, she was a little surprised, but then she quickly reacted. Everyone knew that the two brothers, the Ninth and the Tenth, were like brothers!

Ninth Lady: "Well, if it wasn't New Year's Eve, I wouldn't have seen him. I'm so glad there's a dinner party today, otherwise, I don't know how to find him!"

Although the Tenth Concubine was simple, she was not stupid and was very sensitive. She felt that there must be something going on here. She suddenly glanced at Yunyan, but unfortunately she did not notice anything unusual!

The Tenth Lady was discouraged and laughed at herself in her heart. Yes, how could she possibly see anything? Ever since she met Yunyan, she had never seen through her. She was simply a mystery. She never knew what Yunyan would do next.

The Tenth Lady suppressed her confusion and said nonchalantly, "Nuomin, I think the two brothers are probably researching something fun again. Otherwise, it must be the Ninth Brother. What kind of shop is he planning to open? Wasn't it the same as last time? He hasn't been seen for several months!"

The Ninth Lady was not stupid, of course. She knew that the Tenth Lady was unwilling to continue. She might have guessed something! The Ninth Lady also smiled and nodded, saying, "Hey, Qiqige, don't you know me? I'm not worried about our master at all. Our master is such a big man, how could he get lost?"

As the Ninth Lady spoke, she threw the handkerchief in her hand, playing with it and saying nonchalantly, "I'm just complaining. You know how busy we are as the New Year approaches, but these two are nowhere to be seen all day long!"

When the other concubines heard what the Ninth and Tenth Concubines said, they all did their own little actions, either drinking tea or smiling faintly, as if they had not heard the complaints of the Tenth and Ninth Concubines!

None of those who could become the legitimate wife was a fool. They could naturally see that the Tenth and Ninth wives were unwilling to talk about this topic. They also tactfully avoided the topic and turned to the topic they had just continued!

Yunyan, who looked calm, was not as calm as the Tenth Lady and the others saw. She was also full of confusion in her heart! Although Lao Ba could be seen in the evening every day, he could hardly be found during the day!

At first, Yunyan thought that because the New Year was approaching, the Eighth Old Master had a lot of official business to attend to. Now, after hearing what the Ninth and Tenth Concubines said, Yunyan knew that things were not that simple. The Eighth Old Master must be hiding something from her, but she didn't know what it was!

Yunyan didn't stay with the Crown Princess and the others for long. When they had finished talking, everyone dispersed. After all, there was a dinner in the evening. Except for the Crown Princess who returned to her own palace, the others went to their mother-in-law's palace!

Yunyan walked on the quiet path with Shishu and Shihua, thinking absentmindedly about what the Tenth Lady and the others had just said!

Shi Shu and Shi Hua looked at Yun Yan's silence and exchanged glances. Some confusion flashed in their eyes. Before Shi Shu and Shi Hua could figure out something with their eyes, they heard Yun Yan say in a very light voice, "Do you know what your master is doing recently?"

Shishu shook his head with a confused look and said, "Master, I don't know...! But if you want to know, I can ask Anqing!"

Yunyan: "Forget it, no need, I'll just go ask him myself!"

When Yunyan returned to Concubine Liang's palace, Concubine Liang was resting. Yunyan did not ask the maid to inform her, but asked Caiyin: "Caiyin... do you still have the cough medicine and loquat paste that I sent over some time ago?"

Caiyin was a little surprised when she heard Yunyan's words. She thought Yunyan was not feeling well, so she said anxiously, "Yes... there are many more! The Eighth Lady is not feeling well. I will ask someone to invite the imperial physician!"

After Cai Yin finished speaking, she immediately sent someone to invite the imperial physician. The person in front of her was the apple of her eye and the eye of the Eighth Master! How could she dare to neglect him?

Yunyan: "Caiyin, don't worry, you misunderstood. I'm not feeling unwell, it's the Tenth Lady who's feeling unwell. I don't have any medicine with me, so I asked if the medicine from my mother has been used up. If there isn't much left, forget it!"

Caiyin finally let go of her worries after hearing Yunyan's words. She was really afraid that something might happen to her master. If she got scalded by tea, the Eighth Master would be very distressed. If she really caught a cold, her good days would be over!

Cai Yin looked like she had just been reborn. She patted her chest and said with a tone of relief, "Oh, I was so scared. I thought you were sick, Eighth Lady. Fortunately, you are fine. It turned out to be Tenth Lady! There are still medicines, lots of them! The medicine you sent some time ago, Eighth Lady, has never been used. I only used a little bit of Qiuli Paste!"

Cai Yin: "Eighth Lady, I'll go find the medicine right now and have someone send it to Tenth Lady!"

Yunyan smiled and nodded, saying, "Okay...!"
