"Aunt, there is no Yuanpa!" Song Qingci took the initiative to break the silence and said to Qi with a relaxed expression.

"What?! How could there be no Yuanpa? Could it be..." Song Qingci thought Qi's shock was a bit exaggerated. She looked at Lou with hesitation, "Sister-in-law, what's going on?"

Lou was also shocked by Song Qingci's words. This lady from a noble family spoke so directly. A new bride would blush and keep silent when she mentioned such things.

"Aunt, why are you so surprised? You must know that we didn't consummate our marriage. If we didn't consummate our marriage, where did the Yuanpa come from?" It's well-founded and cannot be refuted.

Everyone knew that the Yuanpa was gone, so how could they not know that the furniture in the new house of Chixiao Court had been changed and that Dan Li did not stay overnight last night? The backyard of a wealthy family was not much worse than a modern information intelligence center, except that it was limited to the backyard.

Qi was even more surprised, "What?! You didn't consummate the marriage, you didn't consummate the marriage after you got married?!" Qi didn't think there was anything wrong with intervening in the affairs of her nephews and nieces. She was just looking for fun. It was not easy to see the first wife's fun. Unfortunately, there were not many people.

Song Qingci's eyebrows were curved, and his smile was intoxicating. Dan Li looked at this smile and felt a little nervous. Then he heard Song Qingci's shocking words, "My husband is ill and cannot consummate the marriage."

"Puff~" The hot tea that had just entered his mouth sprayed all over Qi's side. Shan Li looked at Song Qingci in shock. She really dared to say anything.

The old lady and Lou looked at Shan Li in astonishment. They stopped moving, as if they had been acupunctured.

Qi was sprayed with water and no longer cared about her manners. She stood up from her chair and screamed, "Ah~~!"

Qi's maid Baozhu came forward quickly, took out a handkerchief and wiped the wet edge of Qi's skirt. Qi kicked her away, and with trembling hands, she pointed at Shan Li, feeling that she wanted to curse but didn't dare to, so she could only yell "outrageous, outrageous".

Everyone else was still in shock, and only Song Qingci's voice continued, "Aunt, don't get excited. Be careful not to hurt yourself."

She turned back to look at the old lady and Lou, and said soothingly, "Grandma and mother, don't worry. I know a little bit about medicine, and I can cure your hidden disease. But it will take a little longer~~~ half a year, and the effect will be seen within half a year."

After saying this, she looked at Shan Li meaningfully.

Half a year was enough time for her to establish her identity. After half a year, she divorced him and went to find a good place with good feng shui, where she could live a life of a farmer, mountain springs, and a little land.

Yes, she didn't say this when she discussed cooperation with Shan Li last night. She never planned to stay in this general's mansion for a long time.

Living in a big house is really too tiring. It's not suitable for her.

"Really?!" The old lady took a long time to find her voice. I don't know whether she couldn't believe that Song Qingci knew medicine or she couldn't believe that it could be cured in half a year.

Her eldest grandson had been on the battlefield for many years and had just returned to the capital to be conferred a title. Could this hidden disease be caused by injuries sustained on the battlefield? Otherwise, why did she dismiss the servants of Chixiao Courtyard last night? The mess on the floor of the new house must have been caused by him. She was so upset that she naturally wanted to vent. The more the old lady imagined, the more she believed it.

"Really?" Song Qingci held the old lady's hand, the warmth of her palm conveying a sense of peace of mind. "Grandma, please believe me."

But Lou didn't dare to believe her. She had never heard that the eldest daughter of the Shangshu Mansion knew the art of medicine. Isn't it said in the capital that she is the most famous lady. But what she saw today, why does it feel different from the rumors? "We should go to the palace and invite an imperial physician..."

"Mother! No need! I'm not sick!" Shan Li felt like he was going crazy. Calmness and wisdom were all gone from him. He just wanted to leave here as soon as possible. This was what it meant to lose a thousand years of cultivation in one day.

He pulled Song Qingci up and said hurriedly, "Grandma, mother. We're leaving first." He didn't care about their reactions and rushed out hurriedly.

The whole room was at a loss. Qi was so angry that she jumped up and down. No one paid any attention to her.

After returning to Chixiao Courtyard, Shan Li drove everyone out.

He stood opposite Song Qingci, speechless for a moment. He didn't know what to say first.

Song Qingci sat at the table by herself, reached out and poured herself a cup of tea. She glanced at Shan Li and said, "Sit down and look up at you. I'm tired."

Shan Li also picked up a cup of tea and drank it all. The anger in his heart finally calmed down a little.

"It's my duty to help you solve the problem. After all, I don't like trouble. You're welcome." Song Qingci put down the teacup and said slowly.

"I should thank you too?" Shan Li laughed angrily.

"Of course." Song Qingci's matter-of-fact attitude made Shan Li even more upset.

"Your second aunt is not an easy person to deal with."

Shan Li knew, of course. Although he was not in the mansion for many years, he was still basically aware of the affairs in the mansion. Second Aunt was not very capable. She didn't dare to kill or burn people, but she was familiar with some twists and turns in the inner house. However, most of the methods used by Second Aunt were used against Second Uncle's backyard. She rarely intervened in their big house. He just let it go.

As a junior, he only needs to be responsible for the safety of the general's mansion. He is not allowed to interfere in the affairs of his elders.

"Today I have completely stopped her from snooping into our affairs. Not only your second aunt, but also your grandmother and mother. I have said that you and I are just a fake couple, and we can't consummate our marriage. One or two days is fine, but how will you explain it to them in a month or two? I am impatient to deal with them about this matter. So I will do it all at once." Of course she couldn't say that she was sick, so he must be the one who was sick.

"Don't worry. In a few months, I will say that you are cured. By then, you can take a beautiful concubine. This matter will be over. It will not damage your reputation, don't worry." She arranged everything clearly.

Frustrated! Shan Li had never felt so frustrated before.

But it is just as she said, some things cannot be concealed, and what happened today can at least stop the thoughts of those with evil intentions.

"Don't worry about it. There is a more important matter that needs to be resolved right now." Song Qingci suddenly stopped smiling.
