Yuan Buwei was woken up by the noise.

"what happened?"

She rubbed her sleepy eyes and slowly sat up.

"Madam, someone from the Mu Mansion knocked on the door and said that Old Madam Mu suddenly felt unwell and wanted you to come over and help her."

"Where does she have the nerve to do that? Butler Ye has sent him away, so there is no need for him to report back." Yuan Buwei said nothing. Lu Sui, who was also woken up, was furious.

"Wait."

Old Madam Mu is a woman of integrity, and she will not let go of what happened last time so easily.

Something must be brewing.

Yuan Buwei stood up, took out a porcelain bottle from the medicine box, opened the door and handed it to Ye Qian: "Old Madam Mu must have finished her medicine. Butler Ye, you took the trouble to carry this medicine. There are a total of 20 pills in it, and each pill costs 500 taels. You should give as many pills as Old Madam Mu pays."

Ye Qian originally wanted to persuade the young lady to think twice, but when he heard that a pill cost five hundred taels, he immediately smiled and said, "Yes, I'll go now, young lady, you can have a rest."

"it is good."

As soon as Yuan Buwei closed the door, she heard Lu Sui say, "Awei, you shouldn't have given her the medicine."

"The cost price of the whole bottle of medicine is no more than fifty taels. I will sell her one pill for five hundred taels, which is a sure profit. If I sell her twenty pills, I will make ten thousand taels right away. What a good deal! Why wouldn't I do it?"

Lu Sui was shocked when he heard this: "A bottle costs fifty, and a pill costs five hundred. I thought this medicine was very expensive."

"Mrs. Mu is in serious financial trouble. In the past, we thought that we should supplement what she lacked. But now she is like a leaky bucket. No matter how much water you pour into it, it will still leak. So if we really want to cure her, we have to plug the leak. Moreover, she is old and cannot bear strong medicines. So we can only choose mild medicines. These herbs are very common, but the formula and dosage are not easy to master. But I have Senior Brother Pei's prescription and my own experience, so it is easy to prepare it, and the cost is naturally low."

Yuan Buwei smiled and said, "Ten thousand taels, whether it is used in the mansion or the military camp, it is a huge income. I even hope that after Mrs. Mu has eaten it, she will come to ask me to sell it. It will be so convenient to make money."

"But Awei, don't you feel wronged? It's clear that Old Madam Mu and Mu Qing treated you like that."

"Then I should earn their money even more. They hate me, but they have to spend money to buy my medicine. They are the ones who are wronged, not me." Yuan Buwei blinked and covered Lu Sui with the quilt. "They are the ones who are wronged, not me."

"Awei, are you really not aggrieved? Or are you saying this on purpose?"

"As long as one can achieve his goal, it doesn't matter if he suffers a little injustice. Isn't it the same for you?"

Lu Sui was startled, and three seconds later a smile rose in his eyes: "Yes, I am overthinking it. A Wei has experienced many ups and downs, and she won't care about these things."

"You're not trying to make it complicated, you're..." Yuan Buwei leaned over and kissed the tip of Lu Sui's nose, "I feel your concern."

Lu Suixin missed a beat.

Wait for a reaction.

Yuan Buwei had already shrunk into her bed: "I'm so tired after climbing the mountain all day. I'm going to sleep, sleep."

Mu House.

Madam Mu looked at Butler Ye, who was smiling but not smiling, and dug her fingernails into her palms. "She's asking for too much. Who would sell a pill for five hundred taels? Believe it or not, I'll go to the streets tomorrow and tell them she's taking human lives lightly."

"Madam Mu, you are wrong. The young mistress has asked me to send the medicine to you as soon as possible. If you can't afford it, you can naturally ask other doctors. The emperor has no shortage of famous doctors. If you can't afford it, you can also ask the imperial physician. But I heard that it is very expensive for them to see you once. I guess the medicine will be even more expensive. If you can't come up with so much money at once, you can also buy it one by one."

Madam Mu almost broke her teeth.

Who buys medicine one pill at a time?

She couldn't make up her mind and had to discuss it with her mother-in-law.

After hearing this, Mrs. Mu almost lost her breath: "This Yuan Buwei is really despicable."

"Mother-in-law, there is not much money left in the account. We have to save it for the winter, and we also have to redeem my son. Please make a decision quickly." Madam Mu choked up and cried. If she had known that life would be so bad now, she should not have married into the family.

"Go find Mu Cong. He has money and he's Qing'er's father. He has to take care of this!" Old Madam Mu was so angry that she pounded her fist on the bed repeatedly. "If he doesn't help, I'll go to the palace and sue him for not supporting me."

Mrs. Mu actually thought about her husband. After leaving him, she realized how much she needed him.

So when she heard what her mother-in-law said, she immediately agreed.

When Butler Ye heard that Madam Mu was going to ask Mr. Mu for money, he asked with a bit of amusement, "Madam Mu, by the time you go to the Wanning Marquis's Mansion and ask Mr. Mu for money, maybe Mrs. Mu would have died a long time ago."

Madam Mu was a person without a strong opinion, but she actually thought that what Butler Ye said made sense.

Besides, if something really happened to the mother-in-law tonight, she, as the daughter-in-law, cannot escape the blame.

then.

She gritted her teeth and took out one thousand taels from the account and bought two pills.

Let my mother-in-law’s condition stabilize first, and then go look for my husband tomorrow morning.

"Mrs. Mu, are you sure you only want to buy two? If you buy again next time, the price won't be the same." Ye Qian knew how to draw inferences from one example.

"Next time, we will find a better doctor. Who cares about Yuan Buwei? Get out of here now."

"Farewell."

Ye Qian sneered. If they could find a doctor, why would they come to Wanning Marquis’ Mansion for help in the middle of the night?

He wanted to go back and talk to Master Mu about this so that he could prepare in advance.

Early the next morning.

When Yuan Buwei was having breakfast, Yun Ling came in hurriedly: "Young Madam, Madam Mu went to Master Mu's courtyard and is crying and shouting, saying that Mu Qing is trapped in Yue Shangshao, and Yue Shangshao wants the Mu Mansion to pay 50,000 to redeem him."

Yuan Buwei laughed when she heard it: "This is indeed Uncle Chu's style of doing things. Living people are more valuable than dead people. Master Mu has always lacked an opportunity to bring Nanny Feng back to the Mu Mansion. I think now is a good time."

Yun Ling's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she slapped her head, "I'm going to go find Aunt Feng now."

in the courtyard.

Facing Li Yue who kept crying, Mu Cong's face became more and more ugly. Finally, he couldn't help it: "The money you spent over the years is enough to redeem her ten times. What's the point of a girl like her going to a place like that?"

"How should I know?" Mrs. Mu spoke as usual, but when she met her husband's cold eyes, she realized that her relationship with him seemed to never be the same as before.

Instantly, her attitude softened: "Master, I don't care about what happened before, and you don't have to be angry with your mother-in-law. Let's go home together and live a good life, okay?"
