C46 Correction salutation
"Yes, Eldest Miss." Zhou mama walked over and pulled the shivering Aster out of the ground. Together with Qing Dai and Yun Xiang, she was dragged out. Not long later, she heard the sound of a board being struck. The Aster shrieked for a while and then stopped.
"I never thought that Xiao Xianmin would be this kind of person. When we were at home, she was the best one for me, and when the Xiao family was in decline, she had nowhere to turn to me for help, so I persuaded the old ancestor to take her in and even allowed your father to take her in as a concubine. She even swore that she would remember me forever, and all these years, I couldn't bear to have the old ancestor and your father's feelings.
"Mother, this is the crafty part of Lady Xiao. She used your trust in her to disobey the ancestor and father, and gradually took away her mother's rights in the harem. Think carefully, now that the ancestor has seemingly taken over from your hands the power to control the harem, in reality, the power is in the hands of Aunt Xiao. Our big house has long been emptied by her.
Moreover, she continued to distance herself from our relationship. This time, if it wasn't for Senior Servant Zhou mentioning that I still didn't know that my mother was begging everywhere for me, because Aunt Xiao hadn't said a single word to me, she would have repeatedly emphasized that it was her and Lian Shiya pleading in front of my father and ancestor that I had come back. "Actually, it was also them who framed me when I was being disgraced by the Su Clan's rascals in Yao City."
"What?" I truly regret raising the tiger and causing trouble back then. In the end, I ended up harming myself and others! " The First Lady thumped her chest and stamped her feet in annoyance.
"Mother." Lian Ru Yue held Madam Rong's hand and said, "At this point, regret is useless. It's just that we can't be manipulated by evil people again. You have to pull yourself together. We definitely can't let her succeed."
"Yue Er, don't worry. I won't be fooled by Xiao Xian Min again. You're right, I can't be passive anymore. I need to think of a way to regain control of the backyard.
But... Your grandmother and father had long distrusted me, especially when they thought I had killed the child in the womb of Third Madame and Fourth Aunt. "It's me. I've implicated you and Yi Buyi." As Madam Rong spoke, her eyes revealed a deep helplessness and sorrow. She had always been soft-hearted and kind, but her skills in power arts were far from comparable to Aunty Xiao's. That was why she had fallen so far.
Lian Ru Yue consoled her, "Mother, don't worry and don't worry. When your daughter comes back, your daughter will help you. Moreover, the trick is very good. He won't disappoint your mother. The most important thing is for you to take care of your health. "
"Alright, alright." Madam Rong's hands trembled. "We need to think of a way, a way."
Madam Rong's body felt unwell again. Zhou mama reheated the medicine and gave it to her to drink. Lian Xiyue stayed by her side, feeding her medicine and giving her a massage on her back.
After a while, the maidservant in the outer room came to report, "Madam, Madam Xiao has arrived. She is waiting outside. She wishes Madam good morning."
Upon hearing Xiao Xianmin's name, the Rong family became very excited. "I don't feel well replying to her. I won't be coming over for the next few days."
"Mother, don't get too excited. Take a good rest." Lian Ruyue comforted Madam Rong for a while before Senior Servant Zhou escorted her away.
She explained, "Don't let others know that we have already seen through Auntie Xiao's trick. Instead, let them think that Mother's body is getting worse, do you understand?"
"Yes, this servant understands. This servant will inform Madam." Zhou mama was already deeply impressed by the young miss, Ru Yue, so she would do whatever she said.
"Eldest Miss, so it turns out that in this house, only the Third Miss knows medical skills." Eldest Miss, it turns out that the Third Miss is the only one who knows medical skills in this house. Zhou mama couldn't help but exclaim in admiration. Her tone was filled with even more admiration for this young miss.
Lian Ruyue said lightly, "I've read a lot of medical books, but I don't like to show off."
She passed the sentence indifferently. The truth was that Feng Qianyue was extremely cautious and his body didn't feel well. He was always on his guard against the doctors who treated him, afraid that the enemy would attack his body. And Lian Ruyue, in order to have peace of mind when he was sick and was able to take medicine, silently studied all sorts of medical techniques and visited all the famous doctors in the capital for advice.
Later on, he even invited the always-secluded genius doctor Dong Ling to come under his tutelage. Dismissing the identity of an imperial concubine, he painstakingly went up the mountain with him to gather medicinal herbs during the day, forgot to read his medical books during the night, took care of his three meals and lived his life. He was diligent in his work, and he did whatever he had to do just for the sake of her diagnosis when Feng Qianyue was ill. Finally, she moved Dong Ling, who passed on everything he had learned in his life to her.
"Eldest Miss, look, she hasn't left yet." Senior Servant Zhou's soft reminder interrupted Lian Ru Yue's train of thoughts. She raised her head to look in the direction that Senior Servant Zhou had indicated, only to see that Madam Xiao was still standing there without leaving.
Lian Ruyue withdrew her thoughts as an undetectable coldness quietly flashed across her eyes.
When Aunt Xiao saw Lian Yue, she hurried over. "Eldest Miss, so you were here as well."
Lian Ru Yue's expression didn't show any emotion as she said indifferently, "Why is Aunt still here? Didn't mother already tell you to go back first?"
"Sister Xue hasn't been feeling very well lately. I'm very worried about her, so I plan to come over to treat her. I think she needs to rest now, so I'll wait here for her to get up before I go in."
When Aunt Xiao was in private, she would call him 'Madam' as she had called him when they were children, to show that they were especially close.
"Aunt, in the future, you should address Mother as Eldest Madam. If anyone hears of this, they can start gossiping about you." However, Lian Xiyue was smiling as she corrected him.
Xiao Niang was startled and looked at her in surprise, her face revealing an embarrassed smile. "Eldest Miss, that's what I always call you. I've been used to it all these years ?"
"Then, from now on, change all these bad habits. It's good for both of us, isn't it?" Lian Ru Yue continued to speak with such a carefree tone, but her tone was unquestionable.
Suddenly, Madame Xiao bent down and knelt on the ground. "Did this lowly concubine do something wrong to make the First Madame unhappy? Let me kneel here and apologize to her."
When Senior Servant Zhou saw that Auntie Xiao was kneeling down just like that, she couldn't help but frown. If the news of this concubine kneeling down in front of Eldest Young Miss were to spread to the madame and the prime minister, Eldest Young Miss would once again be crowned with the reputation of being harsh on Eldest Young Madam.
