Poisonous Pet World: The War King's Heart-stealing Medical Concubine

At this time, Nanny Yang supported the old lady and walked into the room.

The old lady asked Murong Baixue anxiously, "Xue'er, you heard the maids say that something happened to the Xiao family early in the morning. What happened?"

Murong Baixue burst into tears and answered with a choked voice: "Grandma, Xue'er really doesn't know what happened to mother. When I woke up this morning, I found that mother couldn't be woken up no matter what I did, and her face looked very painful..."

The old lady frowned, looked at Murong Baixue wearing a veil, and asked with concern: "Xue'er, your face is not healed yet? Why do you keep wearing a veil?"

Murong Baixue lowered her head and shook it gently.

In order to protect her, Xiao hid the fact that Murong Baixue had been disfigured from the people in the mansion.

Xiao originally wanted to tell Murong Yunhai the truth, but Murong Baixue wouldn't let her. The appearance that she was so proud of had been ruined, and she didn't want anyone to know until it was completely healed.

So Murong Yunhai was kept in the dark and had no idea that his daughter, whom he had high hopes for, had been disfigured.

Murong Yunhai even asked someone to invite the imperial physician to see the patient, but later he felt that it was no big deal and stopped paying attention to the matter.

The doctor who examined Murong Baixue at that time, Xiao also had someone give him a banknote to keep him silent.

Even the later imperial physician Xiao slipped him some silver notes, asking him not to tell anyone.

Xiao claimed that Murong Baixue had just caught a cold and had a rash, and only the two personal maids around Murong Baixue knew about her disfigurement.

Seeing that Murong Baixue didn't say anything, the old lady mistakenly thought that the rash on her face had not subsided. She sighed and said, "Poor child, why is the rash still not healed?"

But when Murong Baixue looked at her grandmother in front of her, her heart was filled with grievance and unwillingness.

Her face, which she was so proud of, was suddenly ruined. After the imperial physician examined her, he shook his head, saying that he was powerless and even suggested going to Medicine Valley to find the legendary old doctor for treatment.

Although Murong Baixue felt somewhat desperate, she still held on to a glimmer of hope and looked forward to a miracle happening.

However, when her grandmother asked with concern, Murong Baixue could not hide the pain in her heart.

She gently stroked her veil and answered hesitantly, "Grandmother, I'm not well yet."

The old lady frowned tightly, her eyes full of worry, "Why haven't you recovered yet? Hasn't the imperial physician come to see you? Take off your veil quickly and let grandma take a look to see how serious your condition is. Please don't ruin your beautiful face, a girl's face is very important!"

After hearing this, Murong Baixue's eyes gradually turned red, and tears welled up in her eyes, "No, grandma, don't look."

The old lady patted Murong Baixue's hand gently and comforted her gently: "Silly child, there is no outsider here, grandma is just concerned about you. Let grandma take a look, maybe there is some way to help you recover as before."

Murong Baixue bit her lip, still shaking her head stubbornly, refusing to take off her veil.

Just then, Murong Jiaoning and Aunt Hong walked into the room.

As soon as Murong Jiaoning entered the room, she heard the old lady's words and couldn't help but become curious. She turned her gaze to Murong Baixue and asked softly, "Second sister, is your face still not healed?"

When Murong Baixue heard this, a trace of anger flashed across her face. She glared at Murong Jiaoning fiercely and said through gritted teeth: "My face is not healed, are you happy?"

Murong Jiaoning was startled by this sudden anger and quickly waved her hands to deny it: "No, Ning'er didn't mean that..."

Seeing this, Aunt Hong hurried out to smooth things over. She smiled and said to Murong Baixue, "Second Miss, Ning'er is just concerned about you and has no other intentions. Why should you be angry?"

At this time, Murong Zixi also strode in, looked at everyone in the room, smiled slightly, and said, "Huh? You are all here. Why is the mansion in such a mess so early in the morning? I heard that Xiao's family is not doing well, so I came to take a look."

After hearing this, Murong Baixue was immediately furious. She pointed at Murong Zixi and shouted, "Murong Zixi, what good intentions do you have? You are just here to watch the show, right? You wish my mother was in trouble, so why would you come to see her?"

Murong Zixi shook her head, "Tsk tsk tsk, second sister, look at what you look like now. You don't look like a lady at all. People who don't know you would think you are a shrew scolding in the street. It's really disgraceful, really disgraceful."

Murong Baixue pointed at her, "You...you..."

Murong Zixi tilted her head, looking curious, "Huh? Second sister, we are all family, and there are no outsiders. Why are you wearing a veil?"

"I want you to take care of it?"

The old lady asked solemnly, "Have you called a doctor?"

"Send someone to invite him."

After a while, the doctor came, examined Mrs. Xiao, and shook his head, "Madam, you have had a stroke, it is very serious. I'm afraid you will have to stay in bed for the rest of your life. I will prescribe some painkillers for you."

Murong Zixi couldn't believe it. Her mother was fine yesterday, but how could the doctor diagnose her with a stroke overnight? She yelled at the doctor, "Nonsense, my mother was fine, how could she suddenly have a stroke, you quack."

Murong Zixi looked at Murong Baixue with interest. What? You can't stand it? I wonder how long your filial piety can last?

She did it herself and gave the medicine herself, so the doctors naturally couldn't figure out the reason. She had this confidence as a modern "miracle doctor with magic hands".

At this time, the housekeeper came hurriedly and said, "Madam, something bad has happened. The warehouse has been robbed. The master asked all the masters in the mansion to go there."

"What? The warehouse was robbed?"

Everyone in the room was stunned and could hardly believe their ears.

A group of people hurried to the warehouse, their steps were messy and their expressions were panicked. They walked into the warehouse, and the scene before them stunned everyone - the warehouse that should have been filled with precious items was now empty!

The old lady widened her eyes and asked in a trembling voice: "Yunhai, this... what is going on?" Her tone was full of confusion and shock, and she obviously could not accept this fact.

Aunt Hong's face also changed drastically. She stared at the empty warehouse with wide eyes and shouted in panic: "Oh my God, what is going on?"

At this moment, Murong Zixi suddenly tripped Murong Zining.

Murong Zining was caught off guard and stumbled and fell directly on Murong Baixue.

Due to inertia, Murong Zining accidentally pulled off the veil on Murong Baixue's face.

Murong Zixi pretended to be surprised and shouted: "Ah? Second sister, why is your face so ugly?"

Everyone's eyes were drawn to Murong Baixue's face, and everyone was shocked.

Murong Baixue covered her face with her hands in panic, and kept shouting, "Don't look, don't look!"

However, it was too late, and everyone saw her ugly face.

The old lady pointed at Murong Baixue with a shaking hand and asked in astonishment, "Xue'er, why did your face become like this? Didn't you say it was just a rash?"

Murong Zixi raised her eyebrows, with a barely perceptible smile on her lips, "Second sister, what's wrong with your face? Why do you seem to have two more words on it?"

Murong Baixue was filled with shame and anger. She covered her face and ran away in panic.

Her figure quickly disappeared from people's sight, leaving behind a dead silence.
