The crisp sound of a slap suddenly sounded, making everyone present couldn't help but feel their hearts skip a beat. The weak woman didn't expect that Li Man'er would take action. She received a solid slap on her face and it immediately became swollen.
The burning pain brought Liu Jiaoruo back to her senses. She covered her face and her eyes were full of tears. She wished she could go up and tear Li Maner to pieces, "You dare to hit me?"
Li Maner smiled disdainfully, "Why don't I dare to hit you? Who do you think you are?"
"I am your second uncle's concubine, and I can also be considered your elder..."
Li Man'er couldn't help but raise her eyebrows, Liu Jiaoruo shrank subconsciously, swallowed the rest of the words, and shed tears.
"A concubine is just a man's thing, how dare you think of being an elder to a big girl?" Grandma Lin stood up at the right time and scolded Liu Jiaoruo so hard that her face turned pale, like a branch in the wind and rain.
The sight of the delicate flowers that kept swaying made Grandma Lin feel refreshed.
In the past few years, my wife's health has not been very good, and her relationship with the second master has also become somewhat distant, which inevitably makes her restless life have thoughts that she shouldn't have.
In terms of choosing concubines for the second master, the wife has always been cautious, and she does not want anyone who is too charming or has an impure mind. But if this Liu Jiao was given by the second master's boss, it would be really difficult to deal with, plus she gave birth to a
Her charming appearance made the second master particularly interested in her.
There are people who are born with short-sightedness. Just because of a few sweet words from a man, they feel that they are irreplaceable in the world, and they feel that a man cannot live without her. It is really ridiculous.
"I..." Liu Jiaoruo was very unconvinced. The second master had always regarded her as his treasure. If he knew that she had been wronged by Li Man'er, he would definitely make the decision for her.
A good girl never suffers the consequences of the present.
Li Man'er stared at Liu Jiaoruo and said, "Mother Lin."
Nanny Lin immediately bowed respectfully to Li Man'er and said, "Miss, please give me orders."
"The second aunt is kind-hearted and cannot bear to scold the concubine. We all know this. However, the concubine disrespects the mistress, but it is the following offense. She has no regard for her dignity and inferiority. We must not condone her."
After hearing this, Nanny Lin felt extremely comfortable and had a better impression of Li Man'er.
"What the eldest lady is saying is that the old slave often advises the wife to set up rules, so that one or two people who don't know their identity, can't even distinguish the importance, and really treat themselves as treasures."
The corners of Li Man'er's mouth raised, and she never looked at Liu Jiaoruo again, "Let's go and see the second aunt."
The group of people regarded Liu Jiaoruo and others as nothing, and left directly from her to meet the second wife, Bai Shi.
Liu Jiaoruo was embarrassed and helpless, so she covered her face and ran back to her small courtyard.
This matter couldn't just be let go, she had to get the situation back.
Before Li Man'er entered the hospital, Mrs. Bai already knew that she had beaten Liu Jiaoruo. Her mood was quite complicated at first, but after thinking about it carefully, she realized that it was not a big deal.
"Madam, the eldest girl is here."
"Please come in quickly."
The girl quickly went out to greet her, and within a moment, she welcomed Li Man'er in.
"Big girl, please come in quickly."
As soon as Li Man'er entered the house, she felt that it was extremely hot. Although the weather had turned cooler, it was not that cold. It was still quite hot at noon. The doors and windows in Bai's place were basically closed, but it was so hot in the house.
He was still wearing clothes made of thick material, and there was not even a trace of sweat on his forehead.
"Girl, I've been looking forward to seeing you for a long time." Ms. Bai grabbed Li Man'er's hand to show her closeness, but her hand was cold and had no warmth at all.
"Second Aunt, your hands and feet have always been so cold."
Bai Shi endured the itching in her throat and said helplessly: "Sit down quickly, Fu Pei, and serve tea."
The eldest girl next to Bai personally brought tea to Li Man'er.
"Second Aunt, I'm not in a hurry to drink tea, I'd better show it to you first!"
With a look from Mrs. Bai, Nanny Lin shooed the rest of the crowd out of the house. She asked Fu Pei to guard the door while she stayed in the house to wait on them.
Zi Yan opened Li Man'er's medicine box with familiarity, took out the medicine pillow, and placed it on the small table.
Mrs. Bai put her hands up and down, anxiously waiting for Li Man'er's diagnosis.
Li Man'er's expression was indifferent, and others could not tell anything from her face. Mother Lin's heart was always worried, fearing that Li Man'er would say the same thing as those doctors.
"I can't stop dripping wet, I'm afraid of the cold, my second aunt is really hurt."
Nanny Lin's head buzzed, and her tears suddenly became uncontrollable.
Ms. Bai herself was quite open to it, "I don't know how many times I've heard what you said. Every doctor says this."
Li Man'er signaled Zi Yan to bring a pen and paper, and Zi Yan quickly took out the pen and paper from the medicine box.
"Girl, my wife has this disease, can't we just keep it under control?" When other doctors wrote prescriptions, they would shake their heads while writing, and just said that they would keep it under control for a while.
Even the doctor at the Imperial Hospital said so.
"Will you take care of me?" Li Man'er snorted, "I don't have the ability, so I just said I will take care of myself. Although the disease is serious, if treated promptly, it can be cured in half a year. As long as you insist on taking medicine, follow up with regular check-ups, and adjust the prescription. , it will be almost ready next spring.”
Mrs. Bai was so shocked that she dropped the handkerchief in her hand.
Nanny Lin even cried with joy, but she didn't dare to cry out for fear of disturbing Li Maner's prescription.
Li Maner wrote six or seven pages of paper, picked out five and handed them to Nanny Lin, asking her to send someone to get the medicine.
"There are oral medicines and topical medicines here. How to use them, I will tell you when I get the medicines back." Nanny Lin kept saying yes, looking at the two pages of paper in Li Man'er's hand and asked: " Dare I ask the eldest lady, aren’t these two prescriptions?”
Li Maner handed the two pages to Ms. Bai to look at, "This is the second aunt's pulse record. It records the time of her consultation, symptoms, medication, etc. Every time she has a follow-up visit, two more pages must be added. , when the disease is cured, it can be bound into a book."
"Young lady, you should be more careful." Nanny Lin said quickly: "Old slave, let me get some medicine now. Young lady, sit down for a while."
Li Man'er nodded and asked Zi Yan to pack the things.
Ms. Bai couldn't help but feel a little excited. Until now, she still didn't believe that her disease could be cured.
"Man'er, can my disease really be cured?"
Li Man'er smiled and said, "The body is your own. After taking the medicine, Second Aunt will understand."
The words were so mysterious that Bai didn't dare to ask anymore. She just asked someone to change the tea, and she couldn't help but look at Li Man'er a few more times.
This big girl in the house is really different from before.
"Second Auntie, what do you think I'm doing?" Li Man'er took a sip of the still warm tea and then gently put the tea cup back.
"It just feels like I've never known you."
Li Man'er couldn't help but chuckle. The moment she laughed, Bai felt that the whole room lit up.
