Chapter 24 Apologize for the stepmother?

Everything was ready, and Chu Lingyue was about to leave when she suddenly saw Qiu Ri running in hastily from the back door.

When the other party saw his master present, he was startled at first. He quickly sorted out his thoughts and then pretended to be calm and walked up to salute:

"My maid didn't know grandma was coming back, so she delayed the wait. Why are you so interested in coming here today? Oh! My maid just went out... to get some fresh air."

Listening to Qiu Ri's strange words, Chu Lingyue couldn't help but feel a little strange in her heart.

This girl seems to change into a jerk every few days.

"Girl, it's better not to run around lately."

"Okay, thank you, Aunt Zhang, for mentioning..."

"Sister Qiuhi!"

Qiu Ri's thanks were still in his mouth, so he leaned back straight.

Chu Lingyue saw the blood overflowing from the corner of her mouth. Without saying a word, she stepped forward to control her blood pressure, quickly inserted a reassuring pill, and immediately ordered someone to take Qiuri back.

After diagnosing it herself, Chu Lingyue wrote down the prescription and told Qi Chunchao:

"Qiu Ri is weak in blood and Qiu, but also has an urgent fire that attacks her heart. It's normal that she can't buffer it all at once. Later on, you grab some medicine and fry it for her. After finishing this medicine, I'll give her a few more pills when she gets better.

I keep my private medicine."

"My servant thanked grandma on behalf of Sister Qiuri." It's rare to be well-behaved and quiet in the spring dynasty.

A quarter of an hour later, Chu Lingyue was outside instructing Chun Chao on how to cook medicine. The two of them heard a cry from inside the house: "No... no! Don't kill me! I don't want to die! Help, help!!"

When the two came to Qiuri's bed and took a look, they realized that she had been haunted by a dream.

Seeing that Chun Chao did not hesitate to hold down Qiu Ri's waving hands and confine her, Chu Lingyue immediately took out the sedative medicine and put it into Qiu Ri's mouth.

However, Qiu Ri kept exclaiming that she couldn't swallow the pills, so she had to pour a bowl of hot tea over and drink it down. In the process, although the medicine was swallowed, Qiu Ri's crazy struggle knocked over the tea bowl, causing

Tea was poured all over himself.

As she gradually regained her composure, Chun Chao and Chu Lingyue let go of their hands to deal with the mess on the bed.

"What is this?" When changing Qiu Ri's inner clothes, Chu Lingyue was caught by a scar on the inner side of her arm.

After observing carefully for a long time, she realized that it was a scar that looked very old.

Combined with Qiu Ri's exclamation in her dream, Qiu Ri's performance before and after the assassination in the outer circle that night suddenly came to her mind.

That girl was someone who ate the fatal poison without hesitation. To be so frightened, maybe she had experienced something unusual?

Seeing his master's doubts, Chunchao quickly said: "Grandma, I don't know. In fact, my servant worked with Sister Qiuri eight years ago."

"The winter that year was very cold. My sister stayed overnight in front of the owner's house. She was almost frozen to death when she was found. The owner took her in because she was young and pitiful, but she never said anything about what she had experienced.

.Later, the owner became lonely and sold us young ones. Only recently, thanks to grandma, we got together again."

After hearing what Chun Chao said, Chu Lingyue thought for a moment, took out the tracking Gu that she had recreated, took a drop of Qiu Ri's blood for them to trace, and then put a fantasy Gu to her, but after a while, Qiu fell into the illusion.

Ri then said a lot of things in a daze.

To sum up, it was the gangster who killed her whole family when she was ten years old, and he is still hunting her now.

However, because Qiu Ri’s memory is very confusing as to the person’s identity information, the description cannot be used as a reference.

At the same time, Chu Lingyue also understood why Qiu Ri was willing to eat the fatal poison.

She has a blood feud and needs a condition to take revenge.

The next day, when she learned that Qiu Ri was still sleeping and couldn't wake up, Chu Lingyue went to check on her and personally gave her some calming medicine. She also did not forget to tell the people who took care of Qiu Ri:

"There is no need to call her. Just wait until she wakes up on her own. Take good care of her. If anyone comes except for my orders, report them to me."

Just as she was talking, Zhang Ma came in a hurry: "So grandma is here. People from the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion came with gifts, saying they wanted to apologize to you. They are waiting in the outer hall right now, but grandma is missing.

?”

"pass."

There was a lot of commotion outside in the past two days because Chu Lingyue personally sent Chu Beibei home to make the people think that she had forgiven the little bully, so everyone's conversation after dinner revolved around the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion.

Chu Lingyue had already thought that Dingyuan Hou Mansion would be unable to sit still and take the initiative to send him to her door. However, she did not expect that the person they sent was actually a little girl who looked as weak as a grass lantern.

This makes her choosing to meet in the garden seem a bit inhumane.

"Young lady Ye Rong, please see Princess Jing and pay your respects to Princess Jing." Ye Rong saluted as he spoke. Before she could kneel down, a cough made her unsteady on her feet and almost threw her face to the ground.

The Spring Dynasty had never seen such a weak woman. Seeing this, he immediately went to help, but was interrupted by his master: "The surname of Dingyuan Marquis is Chen, and Mrs. Hou's surname is Xu. I wonder who Miss Ye is?"

"Ahem, back to Princess Jing, the little girl is the adopted daughter of the Marquis and his wife. Because the adoptive mother has relapsed and has difficulty moving in the past few days, I have been specially sent to apologize to you on her behalf."

With a cold eyebrow at this young girl who was unable to speak, Chu Lingyue moved the corner of her mouth slightly, and then personally stretched out her hand to pull her up.

The temperature on Ye Rong's hand was so low that it was almost breathtaking, but it had a strength that someone with such a physique should not have.

She has martial arts.

Not only that, Chu Lingyue also sensed that the poison on her body was instantly hidden when she got close.

Seeing all the things wrong with him, she couldn't help but glance at Chun Chao.

This woman wants to bewitch the people around her? What is her purpose?

"It seems that Mrs. Dingyuan Hou is really old. Unlike us young ones, we don't have to worry about the sky falling." Leng Buding replied, and Chu Lingyue took Ye Rong to the garden pavilion.

I have to say that Ye Rong did a very comprehensive job in acting.

Before the man entered, he sneezed several times in succession, and then he rubbed his arms to show that he was cold.

Chu Lingyue has always found it interesting for such a talented acting master.

"Miss Ye is very weak. I don't know what disease she has. Marquis Dingyuan has great powers. Didn't he find a good doctor for you?"

Sitting down by herself, Chu Lingyue looked at the clusters of koi carp in the lotus pond, revealing a half-unclear smile.

Ye Rong had investigated Chu Lingyue with her stepmother Xu Niangzi before she came to Prince Jing's Mansion, and knew that she was a cruel and wicked person, so much so that now she had to replay every word she said in her mind.

"Returning to Princess Jing, the little girl's disease was brought from her mother's womb. The doctor said that my disease is caused by a congenital deficiency of heart and lungs. My adoptive father and stepmother treat me as their own child. They have spent a lot of energy and money to treat my disease over the years.

It's a pity that I don't live up to my expectations. No matter how much I take care of myself, it still looks like this. But compared to before, I'm in better shape now."

Ye Rong answered slowly and word by word, but Ye Rong didn't forget to go back and taste what he said to see if there were any flaws.

Confirming that there was no loophole to exploit, she just relaxed and sat down, ready to receive Chu Lingyue's next move.

Unexpectedly, Chu Lingyue opened her hand unhurriedly, took out a medicinal Gu and sent it over without any warning:

"A gentle person like Miss Ye has endless blessings waiting in front of her. This medicinal poison is a good thing that can cure all kinds of diseases. If I were someone else, I wouldn't necessarily be so generous, but I just thought of it out of pity for you.

Let me help you. You just need to eat it and the effect will be immediate.”

This move almost choked the calm Ye Rong to death!

Her weakness is just an act. Even if she really has some hidden disease, she will never eat such a thing!

Chu Lingyue, who had long seen through her true colors, was waiting for her to blow herself up.

His face stiffened again and again. Ye Rong gritted his teeth and whispered in reply: "All the poisons in the world are harmful to people. How can there be any cure for all diseases?"

Chun Chao, who had been observing his master for a long time, gradually saw some clues in their conversation.

As soon as Ye Rong said these words, she came back angrily:

"What you said is interesting, girl. Our grandma sees you as pitiful and gives you something. Whether it is good or bad, you can only accept it. Besides, our grandma has already said that it is a good thing. You, a righteous daughter of the Marquis Mansion, dare to question Tangtang."

princess?"

Ye Rong, who was hit hard by the pain, was filled with anger and blurted out an angry criticism:

"No matter how low my status is, I am still a master. When I talk to your grandma, when will it be your turn to interrupt like a dirty bitch? Everyone usually says that your grandma is incapable of discipline. I see it is you.

There are too many lowly slaves like you who don’t know what the world is and how good they are. Are they ruining the reputation of your grandma? A slave like you would have been beaten to death by random sticks in our Dingyuan Marquis Mansion. How generous is Princess Jing?

It can accommodate such things."

How could Chun Chao's violent temper allow anyone to quarrel with her like this? After hearing this, she almost insulted Ye Rong's ancestors for eighteen generations. Fortunately, Chu Lingyue stopped her in time, so she didn't leave any trouble.

"That's right, my girl has my own temper. She is a useless idiot who can't tell what is good or bad. We are all low-life people who are used to running wild without rules. Miss Ye is the second mistress of the Hou Mansion who was single-handedly raised by Mrs. Dingyuan Hou.

What can we compare to you?"

Chu Lingyue said sarcastically, glancing at Ye Rong's face that turned green and white, and then added with a snort:

"It's okay if you don't accept my favor. I have no reason to rush to be attentive. But you should also listen to my advice. No matter how much Dingyuan Hou and his wife dote on you, the blood flowing in your body is not theirs. Besides, your body

It is a 'truth' that everyone in the Hou family knows that it is hard to live long. If you die before them, anything in the Hou family in the future will have nothing to do with you."

As soon as these words came out, Ye Rong could no longer contain her true nature. She clenched her fists in private to try to calm down, but she also had an angry look on her face. She said:

"My foster mother has already realized her mistake. If not, she would not have sent me to apologize to you. Why do you want to attack me and the Marquis Mansion for no reason? You are so aggressive and disrespectful."
