Noble Lady

Just as Xue Chenyu expected, Chunhua and Qiuyue were not tough guys. After being beaten a few times by Mother Huang, they couldn't wait to confess.

He confessed everything about He Ruyi and Cui Hua.

Including that they met at a poetry gathering, and then He Ruyi secretly dressed up as a maid and went out of the house to meet him.

He even sneaked out when he was under house arrest, and each time he went to a temple, etc. He confessed everything.

Liu was so angry that she was fuming. She scolded He Ruyi for a long time, calling her shameless, shameless, shameless, and despicable. She used all of these insults to name a few.

He Ruyi was not afraid at all even though she had done such a shameful thing and was discovered.

Instead, she scolded her two maids harshly, saying that they had no backbone and could not bear two beatings with a stick. She should have chosen two maids who kept their mouths shut.

There was no hint of remorse in his words. Instead, he was blaming the maid for not doing her job well and getting discovered.

Mrs. Liu was so angry that she beat her chest, stamped her feet, and cursed the sky and the earth. Her old illness relapsed, and she was urgently helped back by Mother Huang and Ji Minrou.

Behind them, He Ruyi was still cursing wildly, saying that no one dared to touch her.

Liu was so angry that her eyes rolled back and she fainted.

Ciwenyuan was suddenly in chaos and leaderless.

Ji Minrou asked Mother Huang to quickly invite the second old lady. Zhang, who had just returned to her own yard, hurried over upon hearing the news.

Seeing that they were in a mess, he asked them to go and call a doctor, and then sent someone to tell Xue Chenyu.

He arranged for He Ruyi to be temporarily detained, and then scolded both Huang's mother and Ji Minrou.

Scold them for being inflexible. If someone faints, the first thing to do is to find a doctor. If they keep dragging their feet, even if the person is fine, something bad will happen.

Although Xue Chenyu's housekeeper rights were taken away, Liu was still her mother-in-law after all. It would be unreasonable for her not to show up when the person fainted.

So, Xue Chenyu slowly changed into plain clothes and replaced her jewelry with silver ones, which made her look extremely simple, before going over.

Doctor Xu from Jishan Hall was invited over. Ever since Xue Chenyu married into the He family, Doctor Xu had been asked to treat Liu.

It was precisely because she was willing to spend money, had good doctors and good medicine, and took care of her personally that Liu's cough and asthma, which had lasted for many years, was brought under control.

But what if she did so much?

As soon as Liu's illness got better, she brought Ji Minrou to the He family.

This kind of person is not worthy of her efforts at all.

Of course, this was just what Xue Chenyu thought in her heart. On the surface, she still had to pretend to care.

"Doctor Xu, how is the old lady's condition?"

"Don't worry, the old lady just fainted from a moment of anger. However, her old cough and asthma have finally stabilized, so she can't be stimulated again. Otherwise, if the old illness relapses, the situation will be very serious."

Xue Chenyu nodded and was about to speak when Ji Minrou interrupted, "Doctor Xu, everyone says you're a miracle doctor who can bring people back to health. Can't you cure my aunt's illness?"

This question was asked abruptly.

Doctor Xu was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at Xue Chenyu, "Who is this?"

"This is the old lady's niece, her maiden name is Ji."

Xue Chenyu explained her identity clearly in just one sentence.

Doctor Xu couldn't help but look at Ji Minrou. She was dressed in plain white and had her hair done like a woman. She also had a white flower on her head, which clearly showed that she was in mourning.

This is a widow!

Doctor Xu's brows immediately furrowed. He had heard some rumors by chance, but he didn't expect that the He family was really so absurd.

He Minzhi had only been married for half a year when she actually brought her widowed cousin home.

It would be fine if she was just a homeless cousin with no relatives or friends, but her parents and brothers are still alive, and now she is in the He family, acting like a master. How can this be disgraceful?

Doctor Xu was a traditional man and hated this kind of thing. "This lady is probably overstepping her bounds. Madam He's children are still alive. It's not your turn to question me anyway."

"No matter what, I am your aunt's niece. I grew up in the He family. How dare you talk to me like that?" Ji Minrou's face turned blue and red.

She originally wanted to use the question to label Dr. Xu as a poor doctor, but she didn't expect that the other party would suppress her with just one sentence.

Xue Chenyu's face darkened. "Coughing and asthma have been a problem since ancient times. Being able to suppress the symptoms and live like a normal person is the best portrayal of Doctor Xu's superb medical skills and his miraculous healing power."

"What does Miss Cousin mean by asking this? Could it be that you want to say that Doctor Xu deliberately didn't cure the old lady?"

"I, how could I mean that?"

Is it useful to play dumb?

"You wrote this down from head to toe." Xue Chenyu sneered, "If you are really capable, go find someone else to cure the old lady's illness. If not, shut up!"

She looked cold and stern, without any mercy.

Seeing her like this, Doctor Xu finally had a smile on his face.

Of course, there was no smile at all when he faced Ji Minrou.

"I'm just a doctor, not a god. If the lady feels my treatment is ineffective, she can seek help from someone else. There's no need to say such sour words and tarnish my reputation."

Zhang, who was taking care of Liu, also came out at this moment. After hearing their conversation, she felt that Ji Minrou was ignorant and shallow and was not aware of the danger.

If the lady had not invited Doctor Xu, no one would know what would have happened to Mrs. Liu by now.

"Miss Ji, everyone calls you Miss, but you really think you're the master. When did it become your turn as an outsider to call the shots in the He family?"

Zhang's mocking voice came, and Ji Minrou's face turned pale again.

"I'm sorry, Doctor Xu. It's because we didn't educate your child well enough, and we've caused you trouble." Zhang bowed to Doctor Xu very politely.

This is Doctor Xu, Doctor Xu from Jishan Hall. All the imperial doctors in the palace have to politely call him Master. Only a brainless person like Ji Minrou would want to offend such a highly respected doctor.

Doctor Xu said you're welcome and went to write a prescription.

When he was leaving, it was Xue Chenyu who saw him out.

Doctor Xu, who was always taciturn and didn't like to gossip, held it in for a long time before he couldn't help but say, "You are from a marquis's family after all. How could you tolerate such a ridiculous thing?"

"How can I have the final say in the He family? You saw it too. Just an outsider can slap me in the face at will. How can others care about my opinion?" Xue Chenyu smiled bitterly.

Doctor Xu felt bad seeing her so aggrieved.

This girl grew up under her care, and was raised in the care of Marquis Wu'an and his wife. Now that she has married into the He family, she has suffered a lot.
