C55 I Can Afford It

He had thought that such modesty would be exchanged for a compliment from the madame. Unexpectedly, the madame snorted coldly.

Chi Qingyu looked at the madame, waiting for her to speak.

The old mistress glanced at her indifferently and stood up. "I said that the market owner doesn't know manners, but you don't believe me, Jiniang. What about now?"

Nanny Gi glanced at Chi Qingyu expressionlessly and nodded.

Chi Qingyu couldn't help but click her tongue as she looked at the madame with a provocative gaze. "Is the madame looking down on us?"

The madame did not reply, but the look in her eyes explained everything.

Chi Qingyu had not expected that the original owner's memory of this old lady would not change at all. She was extremely arrogant and did not know what was good for her.

When he had first seen her, he had felt something was amiss. It seemed that she had overthought things.

Chi Qingyu was infuriated. She glanced at the tea on the table and smiled. "Since the madame looks down on us, I will take my leave."

"Wait." The madame called out to Chi Qingyu, who was about to leave.

Chi Qingyu turned around. "Does the madame have any other orders?"

With Maidservant's support, the madame sat down again. "I heard that my son gave you a big present yesterday?" "You might be Poison Doctor, but my son is an imperial court official. I'm afraid this gift is not something that a little Poison Doctor can bear."

So this was the reason. Chi Qingyu sniggered as she glanced at the madame and said, "Looks like this madame lives far away. She has quite a lot of eyes and ears."

The old mistress smirked. "Poison Doctor knows what I mean?"

Chi Qingyu withdrew her foot that she had stepped on and touched the bag on her waist. She looked at the madame with a troubled expression.

"I know, the madame said it so obviously, how can I not know!" It's just that this matter isn't something that I can control … "

Receiving the order from its master, the little cyan snake slowly crawled out of the bag and slid down along Chi Qingyu's clothes to the ground.

Seeing that she was playing tricks on him, the madame harrumphed. She was about to say something when the girl beside her shouted 'snake' and ran off to the back.

Everyone's eyes landed on the ground. They saw a green snake coiled on the ground, its slender eyes looking in their direction. The next moment, the green snake stretched its body and swam slowly towards the old lady.

Chi Qingyu kept a smile on her face and took two steps back while the others followed suit. Maidservant couldn't hold back any longer and shouted loudly.

This shout startled Green Snake and made him move faster.

Maidservant, who was supporting the madame, was shocked by the speed and hid to the side.

The madame was quite nimble as she followed the snake to the side, but the snake was aiming for her. Wherever she went, the snake would follow.

Seeing this, the madame said anxiously, "Nanny Gi! Hurry up and call for reinforcements! "

In fact, there were already people rushing out to call for help. As soon as Nanny Gi hid at the door, a few servants rushed in with sticks and nets in their hands. It seemed like they wanted to catch Green Snake.

Chi Qingyu, who was standing behind them, sneered and lightly snapped her fingers. The sound was like a catalyst. Green Snake's speed became even faster, and he rushed towards the madame. The madame was unable to dodge in time, and Green Snake had already wrapped himself around her legs.

Upon seeing this, Nanny Gi hurriedly stepped forward, wanting to catch him.

However, Green Snake moved along his leg and quickly climbed up the rock. Soon, he arrived at her waist.

The old mistress had probably never experienced such excitement before as she stood there motionlessly. Green Snake was resting on her waist, but his eyes were on the servants and maids surrounding her.

At this moment, there was no one else besides the madame. Nanny Gi stood closest to her, wanting to touch Green Snake.

However, just as her hand was about to reach him, Green Snake's sudden poking of his head scared her back.

The old mistress stood there with a sullen face, no longer as dignified as before. "What are you all standing around for? Quick, take it away! "

Due to the position of the snake, it was not easy for the servants to take action. Maidservant was timid and did not dare to take a step forward. Even the only hopeful Nanny Gi was forced back a few times by the snake.

"Hurry up!" Do you not want to continue working here!? " The madame shouted again.

However, the work was more important, and so was its life. This green snake seemed to be very intelligent. If it was a poisonous snake, a single bite and its life would be gone.

No one dared to move. On the other hand, Chi Qingyu, seeing that they were extremely nervous, was prepared to give them some concoction.

"Aiyo, madame. This green snake is highly toxic, you must be careful!"

As soon as Chi Qingyu finished her sentence, the servants, including Maidservant, who were surrounding them, took another step back, with the exception of Nanny Gi.

Now, forget about saving him, there weren't even that many people who went up to help her.

The old mistress looked at them in horror, exasperated. "You!" "All of you, scram!"

One of the bold Lili said with a sad face, "Madam, we want to save you as well, but this animal is blind. Poison Doctor said that there's poison in it. What if it bites you?"

The old mistress glared at him, her eyes red. "Shut up!"

However, she was too late. Green Snake seemed to understand Maidservant's words. He ran along the madame's waist all the way to her back and then stuck his head out from her shoulder.

The green snake hovered around the old lady's shoulders. The old lady's expression was deathly pale, as if she was about to faint in the next moment. Green Snake's head was pressed against the old mistress' neck, as if he was about to pounce on her in the next moment.

The old mistress' expression turned even worse as her entire body froze in place.

Seeing that it was almost time, Chi Qingyu secretly patted the pills on the bag, indicating that it was time for Little Green Snake to act.

Receiving Chi Qingyu's signal, the little cyan snake squinted his eyes, and his golden pupils turned blood-red as he bit towards the old lady's neck.

"Ah!" With a scream, the madame fainted. A small green snake emerged from the old lady's body and swam towards the door rapidly.

The people at the door crowded to the side, and Chi Qingyu stood not far behind to avoid trouble.

When Little Green Snake swam out of the door, everyone was relieved. Nanny Gi could no longer hold it in and rushed over to check on the madame.

The old mistress' face was ashen. From the looks of it, things were not going well.

Nanny Gi turned around and looked at Chi Qingyu. Her gaze landed on Chi Qingyu as she shouted, "Poison Doctor! "Poison Doctor!"

"Huh?" After Little Green Snake left the courtyard, Chi Qingyu turned back to Nanny Gi and asked, "What happened?"

Nanny Gi didn't care whether she was playing dumb or not. She said anxiously, "Please take a look at the madame. The madame doesn't look well."

Chi Qingyu smiled and said, "Didn't the madame say earlier that we city folk don't know how to be polite? It would be inappropriate to rashly take her pulse. Let's wait for her to wake up before we do anything else."
