Chapter 1162 – This Should Not Be!
“Yo, you are concerned about that hundred silvers? That is compensation for tarnishing the reputation of the w.a.n.g Family. Young Lady Niu Niu is so young, yet she had such unbecoming relations with a man. This resulted in our w.a.n.g Family losing prestige, how much money do you think we needed to spend to stop the gossips…
I think you should know your place and leave. If you still want to stay, that is fine as well. Seeing that you are free, I can arrange some ch.o.r.es for you to do. Since the Young Lady is big enough, there is no need for someone to look after her as well. Many things in the w.a.n.g Family still require helpers.”
Xiao Cui wiped her tears, “Housekeeper w.a.n.g, please have pity for our Young Lady…”
Her not being with the Young Lady when the incident happened was precisely because the w.a.n.g Family ordered her to do rough ch.o.r.es like laundry. Washing nearly half of the entire w.a.n.g Family’s laundry made it impossible for her to look after the Young Lady, resulting in something happening to the Young Lady.
She could still bear with being given multiple ch.o.r.es, at least she can still return to the Young Lady by night time and look after her. If she was really a.s.signed out of the Young Lady’s place, there would really be no one to take care of her in the future.
However, the Young Lady might not be able to endure the illness if she were to give up just like that. That was only a five-year-old girl with a weak physique and congenital night sweats.
w.a.n.g Qi snorted and ignored Xiao Cui; waving his sleeves, he walked away.
Madam Yin Xiu was in a great mood today, he wants to go to the butcher for some pig elbow meat to spice up his lunch. He has no time to be bothered with this pair of master and servant.
Xiao Cui could only lean on the entrance and silently wept.
She had wanted to silently head over to invite Doctor Zhou, but he was known for his bad temper and money-loving character. Even if she went to find him, he will not move if he did not see the money first.
Just as Xiao Cui was in despair, a gentle clear voice suddenly came from outside.
“h.e.l.lo, Miss. My immature son had caused your esteemed Young Lady to be frightened. I am specially here with him to offer our apologies to the Young Lady. Can I ask where Lady Niu Niu stays?”
It was an ordinary-looking young wife in blue clothes and a blue scarf on her head. Her features were regular, yet it gave people a comfortable feeling.
Holding her hand was a young boy around the age of four or five. The boy looked like a doll with an exquisite look. The clothes on him look slightly luxurious as well.
On her other hand was a food box that seemed to contain something delicious, there was a faint aroma coming out of it.
Xiao Cui wiped her tears and looked at this mother and son, she recognized them.
Especially that brat, he was the culprit that caused the Young Lady to be ill, “Our Young Lady is seriously ill, it is all because of your boy…”
When she was about to continue grumbling, she recalled that the other party has already offered a hundred silvers as compensation. Just that Second Madam was now in control and was trying to make things difficult for the Main Wife’s family, that was why things turned out like this…
That was why Xiao Cui held her tongue and looked at the food box. The boy’s mother has excellent culinary skills, maybe Young Lady Niu Niu will recover after eating the food that was made?
“If you are here to visit our Young Lady, please follow me.”
Huan Qing Yan held Little Treasure and followed, “That’s right, how did Lady Niu Niu’s illness worsen?”
“I do not know. She woke up after returning and was well. It is only until the night that she suddenly had a fever, even till now, the fever is still ongoing… Young Lady had been in and out of consciousness all this time.”
Huan Qing Yan frowned when she heard that, this should not be!
When Little Treasure heard what happened, his small face finally displayed a slight trace of guiltiness.
