Chapter 116: Something that brings disaster to my mother's family
"Madam Hou can say this, it seems that she still knows nothing about the affairs of the third brother's wife."
Madam Ning'an Marquis rolled her eyes at her, with a meaningful smile on her lips. When she succeeded in making the other person's face change drastically, she smiled sarcastically and said lightly:
"Today, a disciple from the Divine Doctor Sect came to our house, but without asking any questions, my third sister-in-law rushed up to him and called him a liar..."
Princess Ning knew that since these people had arrived, the matter could not be concealed, so she immediately told the old butler how he had saved Xu Qinghe by accident. Who knew that this was the lucky coincidence? Although Xu Qinghe looked like a peasant, his wife was actually a disciple of the Divine Doctor Sect.
With just a casual move and bad words, Qin was punished. Yes, although it was Yuxiu who made the move, in the eyes of Princess Ning, the pill that flew into Qin's mouth must have been prepared by Madam Cui.
With one more move, the old princess, who was about to die, recovered. You know, several waves of imperial doctors came in these days, and all of them shook their heads and asked to prepare for her funeral.
Now, with just a simple move from Madam Cui, the old lady came back to life. Since she fell ill, she had not spoken so clearly for a long time, and her complexion had never looked so good.
As Princess Ning recounted the entire story, the scene fell into an eerie silence. Everyone's eyes vaguely fell on the wife of Marquis Pingnan, and they took two steps back without making a sound, as if they wanted to draw a line between themselves and others.
Mrs. Pingnan Marquis's face became even darker. Her ignorant sister-in-law used to rely on being the only girl in her generation and being spoiled by her mother. But now, the spoiled girl has become a girl who brings disaster to her family.
The mother of the current Marquis of Pingnan died early, and the old marquis married a second wife not long after. The second wife gave birth to Qin just over a year after she got married. It may be that she injured her body when giving birth to Qin, and she never got pregnant again after that. Naturally, he treated his only daughter like a treasure.
The old marquis doted on this little girl to no end, and before he died, he held his own son's hand and asked him to promise to treat his sister well and to support her and give her courage when she encountered problems.
Now, this great opportunity has come to him, but that idiot has turned it down.
The wife of Marquis Pingnan was both ashamed and angry, standing there in great embarrassment. Just when she didn't know what to do, the mistress of the Su family, who was also the eldest sister-in-law of Princess Ning, came out to smooth things over.
"Third Madam didn't mean what she said. Since Madam Cui gave her a lesson on the spot, she probably didn't take it to heart. Why not wait until Third Madam gets better, then prepare some gifts and take the initiative to go to her house to apologize. Then the matter will be over."
Madam Su helped to come up with an idea because the wife of Marquis Pingnan was a good person. Besides, they were all relatives. Even though she disliked the two people in the third room, she couldn't just watch them get into trouble.
"Madam Su is right. Madam Cui is very generous and will not argue with a woman from the harem. If you take the initiative to come and apologize, maybe she will not blame you anymore because of your sincerity."
Seeing Mrs. Su speak, the second lady's sister-in-law also echoed her. They were all relatives and saw each other every day, so it was natural that they should help each other.
Seeing that the two ladies had said this, the others, whether they were well-intentioned or just wanted to watch the fun, also followed suit and said a few words of consolation. The wife of Marquis Pingnan made up her mind that when she returned, she would ask her own master to prepare good gifts, and then take that ignorant fool together to go and apologize.
A group of people clamored and gave advice, and finally they all suggested going to pay their respects to the old princess, but Princess Ning decisively refused.
"Mother-in-law just had an acupuncture injection and a medicinal bath. She needs to rest well. Why don't we all wait for a few days and wait for Mother-in-law to recover. Then we can hold a banquet at Prince Ning's Mansion and invite all the ladies to come and have fun. What do you think?"
With these people chattering like this, she, a healthy person, is almost dizzy from the noise. What's more, the old lady has just recovered a little, how can she bear it? It is better to calm them down first.
Seeing that Princess Ning was determined, everyone had no other choice. Plus, the wife of Marquis Pingnan was in a hurry to go back and prepare gifts, so no one had any other opinions, and Princess Ning politely sent the group of people away.
On the other side, Yuxiu took Lin Qiu's mother out. Before leaving, she gave the waiter a string of copper coins and told him that if anyone came to look for her, there was no need to inform them. Just say that Madam Cui was tired today and would not see anyone who came.
The waiter naturally agreed with the heavy copper coin in his hand. Yuxiu then took Mother Qiu away with peace of mind and went to the largest dental clinic in the capital.
She was not very worried about Cui's safety. Not to mention that she had learned the Iron Palm Technique and also mixed a lot of medicinal powders that could make people lose consciousness instantly. Besides, given her current status, even if someone wanted to break in by force, they would not dare to hurt her casually.
The powerful and wealthy all value their lives, so there is no need to rush to offend a doctor with excellent medical skills.
"Miss, the brokerage shop is in front. I know a broker who has dealt with Prince Ning's Mansion several times. Do you think we should ask him to come directly, or should we take a look ourselves first?"
Mother Qiu followed Yuxiu and whispered to her, meaning that she knew someone, and if Yuxiu needed the person, she could call him over, and if not, she could just find someone else.
"Since Mother Qiu has an acquaintance, that would be the best thing to do. Wouldn't it be great if you could ask him to come over and introduce him to me?"
Yuxiu asked Qiu's mother to come over just for convenience, so that people would not dare to fool her casually, and it could also avoid a lot of trouble invisibly.
Of course you have to make use of your acquaintances. Besides, Mother Qiu represents the Ning Palace outside, so outsiders have to give her some face.
This was indeed true. As soon as the two of them arrived at the door of the pawnshop, a young boy came over from a distance and bowed to Yuxiu very attentively.
"I pay my respects to the young lady."
After saying this, he also bowed to Mother Qiu and said with a smile:
"I haven't seen Mother Qiu for a long time. My master is waiting inside. Please come in quickly."
Although the young boy didn't know Yuxiu's identity, he knew she was not an ordinary person just by seeing that Mother Qiu walked one step behind him and her attitude was very respectful. Of course, he didn't dare to neglect her.
"You are quite clever. Hurry up and lead the way."
Yuxiu just smiled, and Mother Qiu quickly spoke up. The two of them followed the young boy into the hall of the dental clinic.
Someone had already notified the receptionist, who came out hurriedly while adjusting his clothes.
