Volume 2, Chapter 321: Thrilling

Mrs. Li and Mrs. Liu had just had enough to eat for two years, and were still not used to the life of a rich wife. They rarely brought maids to serve them. The maids were all working, and they would not raise an idle person to follow them.

The female worker asked a female worker to call the doctor, and she helped Liu to the rest room. Two female workers saw her on the way and came to help.

A female worker opened the door to the rest room and said, "Second madam, come in and lie down for a while."

Mrs. Liu couldn't stand up and lay down on the bed in a daze.

The female worker said to the two female workers who came after her: "You go and do your work. I will take care of the second wife. The doctor will be here soon."

Their wages were calculated on a piece-rate basis. When the two female workers saw that Mr. Liu was being served, they hurried to work.

Mrs. Liu's face was flushed, and there was a thin layer of sweat on her forehead. She frowned, closed her eyes, and opened her clothes, "Water, cold water."

"Okay!" The female worker agreed, but instead of pouring water for her, she walked to the back window and unbolted the window bolt.

Then, he picked up the kettle on the table and said, "Second Madam, we just started working today and there is no water in the kettle yet. I'll get it for you."

After saying that, he turned around and walked away, his steps a little flustered, and he almost tripped over the threshold at the door.

The north wind blew the window open a crack, and the wind was still very cold in the first month of the year.

Ms. Liu opened her clothes, and the cold wind blew her skin, which made her sober up. She opened her eyes and saw that the window was open, so she struggled to get up from the bed, walked to the window and closed it again.

.

She paused with her hand on the window bolt, and frowned in confusion. Today was the first day of work. During the holiday before the year, the windows were all bolted, so how could they be opened?

When he thought about his sudden physical discomfort, he thought for a moment and came up with a guess.

She stumbled to the water basin and found that there was still a layer of ice in the water basin. She picked up the basin and put it on the ground, took out the ice, picked it up and wiped it on her face and neck, and she woke up instantly.

She simply threw the ice in through her lapels, straightened her clothes, opened the door and walked out quickly. There was a medicine shop in Shangguan's house not far from the knitting shop. On the way, she met the doctor and the female worker who hired the doctor, Sanya.

I heard that my second aunt was ill, so I came with her.

Sanya has been studying medicine for several years and has some sharp eyesight. She can tell at a glance that Mrs. Liu's steps are shaky. She hurriedly supported her and asked with concern: "Second Aunt, are you okay?"

Mrs. Liu said: "Let's go to the drug store and talk about it."

The female worker said: "I will help you."

Mrs. Liu said: "Go and do your work, my niece is here."

The female worker was also thinking about her work, so she went back to the shop first.

As soon as Sanya took Mrs. Liu's pulse, her face darkened, and she quickly helped Mrs. Liu back to the drug store and into the resting room. She asked the doctor sitting in the clinic to check her pulse again and confirmed her diagnosis. Mrs. Liu had indeed been hit by a drug that boosted her mood.

medicine.

She took the pills and gave them to Liu, "Second Aunt, what's going on?"

"I don't know either." Mrs. Liu explained the matter again.

Sanya said nervously: "Let's go home and ask Fourth Aunt what we should do about this matter?"

Mrs. Liu said: "Someone has to keep an eye on that female worker!"

Erhu, Chen Yueyue, Gao Liugen and Zhou Lidong, several children studying medicine, were all in the shop. Sanya asked sixteen-year-old Zhou Lidong and twelve-year-old Erhu to keep an eye on the female worker.

Shangguan Ruoli and Mrs. Qian were packing the things they were going to take back. When they saw Mrs. Liu and Sanya coming back so early, they looked bad and asked in unison: "What happened?"

Mrs. Liu told what happened in a few words.

Shangguan Ruoli's face darkened, and he and Mrs. Qian went to interrogate the female worker in person.

The female worker was not a hard-tongued person. She just took money from a mysterious man, drugged Ms. Liu, led her into the room, and opened the back window. She didn't know anything else.

Shangguan Ruoli frowned. For things like this, as long as the other party doesn't show up again, it will be difficult to find the culprit behind the scenes.

At this time, Erhu came in and said a few words in her ear.

Shangguan Ruoli's eyes lit up and he said, "Go and have a look."

Old Mrs. Qian asked: "What should we do with this foodie? She is just a hired worker and cannot be beaten or scolded. Should we just let her go like this?"

Shangguan Ruoli said: "Send me off!"

"No!" The female worker knelt on the ground and kowtowed, "Mrs. Dong, please have mercy on me. I have an eighty-year-old sick woman above me and a child who is crying for food. Just leave me alone! How will I live after I'm in prison?

!”

Old Mrs. Qian spat: "Bah! When you did this, why didn't you think about how my daughter-in-law would live?"
