C19 Small victory
The Concubine Cui was counting the hours until nightfall. Around one hour later, the Master would be here, so she quickly instructed Xun Yan to brew another pot of Master's favorite tea, which Xun Yan agreed to.
Not long later, Xun Yan brought out the tea broth she brewed, the Concubine Cui was not too concerned about what kind of tea Xun Yan served. Xun Yan looked at Concubine Cui who was still flirting with him, and the corner of her mouth curled into a cold smile.
The tea that she brought over was the Ox-Bone Marrow Tea Soup, which was certainly the favorite tea of Master, but it was also the tea that her sister Chi Yu was most proficient in. In fact, she was also proficient in it as well, she didn't believe that when Master tasted this familiar smell, she would not think of her dead sister.
As long as Master could think of Chi Yu and loathe him again, she would have achieved her goal.
thought that the Master had come, and welcomed him with a flourish. However, he discovered that the person who came was his precious son.
She only saw that Luo Minglei's entire body was drenched, his face was also covered in bruises. Concubine Cui did not have much affection for her son, and normally did not even interact much.
During the month she was confined, Luo Minglei had not come to see her. He had really thought that he was born in First Madame, and although Concubine Cui was angry at her, she was also relying on this child, so she could not leave without some accidents.
He came forward and asked with a pained tone, "My son, what happened to you?"
Luo Minglei was fat to begin with, and the bruises on his face at this moment made him look even more stupid and fat than before. He was even crying as he said, "Aunt, it's Luo Mingyan! It must be Luo Mingyan who did it."
"What Luo Mingyan? You said it clearly." When Concubine Cui heard that Luo Mingyan was the target of her eyes, she became angry, thinking that she had already been harmed so badly by them, and now that they attacked her children, they definitely wanted to exterminate her mother.
A sudden anger arose as he spoke in a coarse voice, spitting out all sorts of unsightly words, "How did that little bastard Luo Mingyan hurt you again? Did you tell your father? "
Luo Minglei sobbed with a bit of guilt, "No."
"No?" Why don't you go? Go and report to your father, go and do it, show your wounds to your father, and tell him that Li Xian'e, that slut, wants her son to kill you, that wolf's ambition. "
The more he thought about it, the more he felt it was feasible. He was so excited that he couldn't help but admire the Madame Li's gentle explanation. If he knew that the Madame Li was actually referring to a wolf in sheep's clothing, any kind of gentle explanation would just be an act.
"I don't dare, I don't know if Luo Mingyan hurt me or not." Luo Minglei was guilty, he could not resist the crazy look the Concubine Cui had, and told them everything, "I was out with Teacher today, so I pushed Luo Mingyan into the water while Teacher was unaware. Who would have thought that I would not die, and would be saved?"
Concubine Cui's eyes lit up when she heard about the water, but when she heard that she was saved, her eyes darkened. It was a pity, a pity that she did not stop talking.
"I feel that the one who pushed me into the water tonight was definitely Luo Mingyan, because he wanted to take revenge on me. However, I have no evidence and I do not dare to let my father know what happened today." The little fatty spoke in one breath before falling onto the ground like a deflated ball.
Concubine Cui still held onto her last bit of hope and asked, "Where did you get pushed into the water, is it close to Luo Mingyan's residence? Do you have any clothes on him? "
Concubine Cui still thought that she wouldn't be able to create evidence, but for example, she secretly cut a corner of Luo Mingyan's clothes.
"A friend sent me a letter asking me to go out and play outside." After the little fatty said his piece, he looked at Concubine Cui eagerly, waiting for her to come up with a good plan to help him settle the hatred in his heart.
It was just that after the Concubine Cui heard his words, she said rather coldly, "You can go back first and recover from your injuries." In fact, she was also wondering if she could pin this hat on the head of the person in the room.
It was just that there was too much possibility of him falling over while playing outside. If he insisted on dragging Luo Mingyan down, not only would it be too far-fetched, it would also easily attract the loathing of the Master.
When the little fatty heard Concubine Cui's words, she couldn't bear it anymore. He didn't think that the aunt who taught him how to deal with things would reject him, "Aunt, you have to help me take revenge, or else I won't be able to take this lying down."
Concubine Cui sighed, "You think I don't want to? It's just that this matter isn't easy to handle. Just you wait and see.
When she thought that she would be able to go out after today, Concubine Cui felt gratified. Suddenly, she felt a chill on her back, and turned around abruptly, only to see Master standing at the door, her face ashen, staring straight at her.
Concubine Cui's heart was thumping non-stop. He forced himself to stay calm and smiled obsequiously, "Master, you've come."
Luoan'S Time glared at her but did not reply. Her face was ashen, and she was dressed in a black robe with snake like golden silk threads, looking extremely terrifying.
Concubine Cui was in a state of turmoil, she could not estimate how much Yun Che had actually heard, and inwardly scolded Xun Yan for not thinking well of the door. But now, no one could help her anymore, so she could only carefully deal with it, "Master, when did you arrive?"
As he said that, he walked up, and as usual, welcomed Master in. Just as he touched Luoan'S Time's sleeves, he flung him away and sat on the ground, sweeping away the freshly brewed tea on the table.
That was the Ox Bone Marrow Tea Soup that Xun Yan had just brewed. No one present thought that it would be this tea, Chi Yu's good tea, would of course make the Master think of Chi Yu.
Concubine Cui didn't understand anything at this time. Xun Yan brewed the tea, and without any warning, Xun Yan quietly let him in. Xun Yan wanted to harm her.
"Poison woman!" Luoan'S Time shouted in fury.
"Master?" Concubine Cui looked at Luoan'S Time in disbelief, feeling both shocked and apprehensive. The Luoan'S Time had doted on her in the past, and if it was something that did not exceed the bottom line, she was willing to follow along with the Concubine Cui, to have a refined and elegant reputation.
So to say, other than the last time when Luoan'S Time was angered to the point of slapping him, Concubine Cui had never seen such a terrifying expression on Luoan'S Time's face. Looking at the look of disgust in Luoan'S Time's eyes, her mind raced as well.
If Master could not rely on him anymore, then her final backer would be his son. In a blink of an eye, he turned to look, only to see Luo Minglei kneeling at the side, shrugging his shoulders, his head drooping as he did not dare look at Luoan'S Time.
