105 The Ancient Lady's Thoughts

"Master, look at you, you're talking nonsense again! How dare we, mother and daughter, say bad things about you behind your back? It's too late to say good things to you!" Mrs. Shangguan pretended to be unhappy and glared at Mr. Shangguan. She knew that the master was joking with her, so she said to Mr. Shangguan in a flattering tone.

"It's too late, too late! Let's see how Wan'er thanks me when she comes back from outside tomorrow? Ahhahaha..." Mr. Shangguan said, and started to laugh happily again.

"Look, I'm so proud of you!" Although Mrs. Shangguan said this, her heart suddenly became cheerful. She just likes to see Wan'er's smile and listen to the master's laughter. As long as the father and daughter are happy, she will be happy!

Ever since she heard Mr. Shangguan’s explanation that she would follow Mrs. Shangguan to go to the temple to burn incense and deliver tribute, Ouyang Xinyu was extremely excited. She immediately felt that she was in great spirits and was in good health all of a sudden. She was thinking, why did Xiao Cuiya not come back after so long? If she knew this news, she might be happier than her! Thinking about it, Ouyang Xinyu actually fell asleep. She was tired, and she was really tired. Last night, she was lying in bed and fighting with herself, and she didn’t sleep well all night.

After Xiao Cui Yatou sent the doctor out of Shangguan Mansion, she walked straight to the nearest pharmacy to the southeast street outside the mansion, preparing to get medicine for Ouyang Xinyu. Along the way, Xiao Cui thought to herself, Miss Xinyu was not going to make excuses for her to go out to pretend to be sick, right? But when she woke up this morning, her face was not right, as if she was really sick. Then, she might have made herself sick on purpose last night, right? If this is true, she would be joking about her life, then the price she paid would be too high!

At about three o'clock in the afternoon, Xiao Cuiya poured the boiled Chinese medicine into a bowl and brought it to Shangguan Wan'er's room. When Xiao Cui returned to the room, Ouyang Xinyu was sleeping soundly and even started to snore. How could she look like a sick person? Xiao Cui gently placed the medicine on the round table in the middle of the house and wondered in her heart.

"Miss, the medicine is ready! Get up quickly and drink the medicine. Madam tells you to get up after you finish the medicine. Don't sleep anymore, so as not to fall asleep again at night!" Xiao Cui walked to Ouyang Xinyu's bed, shaking the quilt while calling her.

"Well...what happened? What happened? Why is it so noisy?" Ouyang Xinyu asked Xiao Cuiya when she heard the sound of calling.

"Miss, I'm Xiao Cui. Your medicine has been boiled. Get up quickly and drink it while it's hot!" Seeing Ouyang Xinyu's look like she was not awake, Xiao Cui called her again.

"Xiao Cui, are you back? I'm not sick, I don't want to take medicine!" Ouyang Xinyu finally woke up, and she still looked at Xiao Cui with sleepy eyes and muttered to her.

"Miss, you are not really pretending to be sick and creating opportunities for me! But seeing your face is so bad, it should seem like you are really sick! You really scared me that way you looked like in the morning! You should get up and drink the medicine so that your wife won't wait..." Seeing that Ouyang Xinyu changed her cold look at her this morning, Xiao Cui boldly expressed the doubts in her heart.

"Mrs. I just left my room. Did she say she was coming again?" Ouyang Xinyu muttered in a low voice when she heard that the lady was coming again.

"No, I just came back from taking medicine and met her and the master. It seems that they were in a good mood today, talking and laughing!" Xiao Cui answered truthfully, and she told Ouyang Xinyu what she saw when she met the master and his wife just now in the main hall.

"Oh, that's it! Xiao Cui, you don't think I'm pretending to be sick! I'm not pretending to be sick. At first, I was really sick, wouldn't I be so ill? Later, the master said that he promised me to leave the house with my wife tomorrow, so my illness was cured all of a sudden!" Ouyang Xinyu did look sick this morning, but now she has recovered. She told Xiao Cuiya the truth.

"Miss, Master, did he really promise you to leave the mansion with your wife tomorrow?" Xiao Cui asked her as she felt a little disbelief.

"Yes, otherwise, how could I sleep? Moreover, I sleep so soundly!" At this point, Ouyang Xinyu lifted the quilt and prepared to get up.

"No wonder, I heard the lady snoring just now and was sleeping so hard! It turned out that there was such a good thing, haha..." Xiao Cuiya saw that Ouyang Xinyu was about to get up, so she immediately helped her get clothes to put on her.

"Xiao Cui, how are the old man doing? Have you linked him? Did he say anything?" After putting on his clothes, Ouyang Xinyu waited for Xiao Cui to button up the clothes for her while sending a series of questions to her.

"Miss, I'm about to tell you about this! Grandpa is waiting for your reply outside. I told him what you meant. He immediately carried his candy man's load. He should be going back and preparing to go!" While answering Ouyang Xinyu's words, Xiao Cuiya quickly buttoned the clothes for her.

"Have you told him that what I said has nothing to do with the master and the wife. If they don't agree with this marriage, don't hurt them!" Ouyang Xinyu said as she walked to the round table and sat on the stool next to the round table to let Xiao Cuiya comb her hair.

"I told him that he said he couldn't make the decision. However, he promised me that he would try his best to persuade them to not have disputes with the master and his wife!" Xiao Cuiya said while holding a comb and combing Ouyang Xinyu's hair.

"That's good, I'm afraid the master and wife will be hurt because of this!" After hearing Xiao Cui say this, Ouyang Xinyu suddenly said with relief.

"Miss, thank you, you are so nice to our master and wife!" Hearing Ouyang Xinyu cares so much about their master and wife, Xiao Cui immediately casts a grateful look at her and sighs to her.

"Oh...! Xiao Cui, I was actually forced to do it too! Your master and wife are really good to me, and I can't bear to see them hurt. The most important thing is that, like you said, we can't explain clearly. Apart from that, what better way than this?" Ouyang Xinyu sighed long and said to Xiao Cuiya helplessly.

"Miss, I have a good idea. I wonder if you would like it or not?" After hearing that he had the chance to leave the house, Xiao Cuiya suddenly had an idea in her mind, and she asked Ouyang Xinyu.

"Have a good idea? Why would I not want such a good thing? What's the idea? Xiaocui, tell me quickly!" When Xiaocui said that she had a good idea, Ouyang Xinyu's eyes suddenly lit up. It would be terrifying if she could not let her go to the counterfeit village to be the wife of the village, she would be willing to try whatever she wanted her to do.

"Tomorrow..." Suddenly, Xiao Cuiya came to Ouyang Xinyu's ear and whispered to her.

"Can this work? But I don't know where I can go after leaving the mansion?" After listening to Xiao Cui's narration, Ouyang Xinyu suddenly asked her in confusion.

"Miss, I have my own way of doing this. You just need to follow Xiao Cui at that time!" Xiao Cui said to Ouyang Xinyu with her chest, looking confident.

"Okay, then let's prepare quickly! Prepare more silver with you so that you won't have money to buy food and go hungry after you go out!" Since Xiao Cui was so confident, what else should she worry about? Ouyang Xinyu urged Xiao Cui's girl excitedly.
