Chapter 175: Doctor Qu is here
Steward Chen heard that the eldest lady directly gave a punishment order, and his face turned pale in an instant. ΡΡΡ.(vii) (ix) x.S.ΡΠΎΠΌ The update is so fast.
Even so, he didn't dare to open his mouth to resist.
Don't say that he can't resist as a subordinate, just say that if he opens his mouth about the things in front of him, the follow-up things will be troublesome, and now that he has to carry it hard, he may still have a glimmer of life.
Li Ronghua didn't continue to pay attention to the changes in Steward Chen, and all his attention was on the eldest lady's sentence, 'Even if you are Li's companion'.
Steward Chen is really from the Li family.
Although she had doubted the Li family early on, she really felt that with the Li family's 'shrewdness', she would not do such a thing that could be seen as the mastermind at a glance, after all, in the previous life, the Li family had done many things, all of which did not touch himself at all.
Of course, in addition to this, it is also because there is no need for the Li family to do something that harms her mother's 'life', after all, whether her mother comes back or not, it has no effect on the Li family, not to say that the Li family does not like her cheap father, just say that her mother can only be a concubine when she comes back.
It was also because of these that she carefully investigated to see if there were other things behind it, but she didn't want to, and in the end, the source of this matter was still the Li family.
"Ronghua, what's wrong with you?"
The eldest lady stared at the punishment of Steward Chen, and did not pay attention to Li Ronghua's condition, Li Qiuyi cared about Li Ronghua's condition the most, and directly saw that Li Ronghua's face was not good.
Li Ronghua shook his head at Li Qiuyi: "It's nothing, it's just that I know something I've been curious about." β
"What keeps you curious?" The key face 'color' has also changed.
Li Qiuyi looked at Li Ronghua and was even more worried.
Seeing that Li Qiuyi was worried, Li Ronghua smiled at Li Qiuyi with a reassuring smile: "It's not a big deal, it's just that Steward Chen is an old acquaintance and has always been curious about who he is." β
Li Qiuyi relieved himself when he heard Li Ronghua's words: "What's so curious about this, just order someone to ask about it, and you can know it." β
Li Qiuyi thought of something, and hurriedly spoke again: "Ninth sister, if you have such a thing in the future, you can directly send my people to ask, or tell me, I'll help you ask." β
Li Ronghua's heart warmed and nodded: "I won't be polite to you." β
Li Qiuyi put his mind at ease, but when he looked at the things brought back by the Right Prime Minister's Mansion, he couldn't help but speak: "Ninth sister, I don't know if it's my delusion, I always feel weird when I go back to the house today, unlike in the past, my grandmother's performance is also very strange, although I don't think I should think about it, but I always feel that something is wrong, and I always feel a little uneasy in my heart." β
Hearing Li Qiuyi's words, Li Ronghua reacted instantly, and now the most urgent thing is the matter of the Right Prime Minister's Mansion.
Now that we know who the person who harmed my mother is, this matter can naturally be put aside for the time being, after all, there is time to deal with the Li family well, and it was originally to deal with the Li family.
The most important thing these days is the living.
Thinking like this, Li Ronghua took a deep breath to appease Li Qiuyi: "What's uneasy about the fifth sister, I see that you are in a hurry back and forth all the way, and you are reluctant to go back and forth to the right prime minister's house, so you will have strange emotions, and it will be good to sleep for a while." β
Li Qiuyi knows about the affairs of the Right Prime Minister's Mansion, and it is useless, it is better to worry and worry about it, it is better to just not know.
"Is that so?" Li Qiuyi couldn't help but speak: "I always feel that my grandmother is a little strange today. β
"Okay, don't think about it, let's hurry up and thank the eldest aunt first, if the eldest aunt hadn't come, what the Right Prime Minister's Mansion gave us would probably not be ours." Li Ronghua interrupted Li Qiuyi's thoughts.
"Also, I don't know who is calculating our things, could it be the Li family?" Li Qiuyi's brows furrowed, but he still thanked the eldest lady with Li Ronghua.
The eldest lady smiled gently: "It's all a family that has something to thank, but I want to thank you two, if it weren't for the two of you, I wouldn't know that there were such moths in the mansion, and I dared to deceive the master, if such a thing reached your grandmother, I'm afraid I would also say that I was not strict in housekeeping." β
"The eldest aunt has a lot of things, where everyone can manage it, not to mention that this is still our mother's companion room, it is even more difficult to notice." Li Ronghua spoke obediently.
The eldest lady nodded: "This matter is over, you should go and rest early." But there is no mention of continuing to investigate this matter carefully.
Li Qiuyi wanted to talk about this matter again, but Li Ronghua directly stopped him: "Fifth sister, I'm tired, let's go back together." β
Li Qiuyi saw Li Ronghua's tired appearance, and finally nodded, and when he left, he still glared at the screaming steward Chen who was beaten.
Leaving the outer courtyard, Li Qiuyi couldn't help but ask Li Ronghua: "Ninth sister, why didn't you let me ask a few more words just now, and ask who sent Steward Chen, so that you can know who has the idea of beating us." β
"I'm afraid my aunt won't like us to ask more, after all, Steward Chen is a member of the Li family, in case it is really involved, this matter is too ugly, and it will not be seen by our juniors." Li Ronghua spoke as he walked.
Li Qiuyi nodded: "Yes, the eldest aunt in the house has the most important rules, but unfortunately I can't know who wants to cheat us, although it was the Li family's people who did this, but looking at Steward Chen, it really looks like he wants to send things to the public treasury......"
Li Ronghua frowned, if the things were sent to the public treasury, it would not be good for the Li family, after all, he was not the Li family's housekeeper now.
"Forget it, I don't want to do this, anyway, we didn't suffer a loss this time, but it's a pity that we can't involve the Li family, otherwise it's fine, and let the Li family be cleaned up."
"Since the eldest aunt has dealt with this matter, although we don't know, this matter will definitely go to the old lady, and the Li family will punish it."
When Li Qiuyi heard Li Ronghua's words, he was finally happy in his heart, and happily sent Li Ronghua back to Qiuzhu Courtyard before returning to his own courtyard.
Li Ronghua watched Li Qiuyi leave, and then sat down in his room.
Because of the things brought back by the Right Prime Minister's Mansion, it was already late, so she didn't call Qing'er to come over and ask what happened during her absence in the Li Mansion, but sat quietly in the room alone and thought.
There were so many things going on during this time, not just too much, but also complicated, and she needed to sort out her thoughts.
Although she didn't call Qing'er over, Qiu'er has always been serving in her house, she went to the right minister's mansion this time, for the news of the house, this maid still stayed in the house, and when she came back, she hurriedly came to serve.
Seeing Qiu'er coming, Li Ronghua thought for a while and asked, "During my absence, what strange things happened in the mansion?" β
Qiu'er, who was serving Li Ronghua face wash, heard Li Ronghua's inquiry, and hurriedly put the face wash on the shelf: "There is really one thing, during this time, the fourth lady went to the eldest master's study every day to find the eldest master, and I heard that it was because of the Chinese New Year that the relatives lost the molecule because the fourth master was not at home, and I wanted to ask the eldest master to find a way to detain the fourth master in the house." β
"Oh?" Li has long given up on her cheap father, where would she do such a thing, I'm afraid it's just a disguise, and at such a time to 'make' such a disguise, what is it to do, or is it that Li has been bold enough to do immoral things blatantly?
It's not like Lee's style.
In the previous life, the Li family was an extremely smart person, in order not to let himself stand on the dangerous wall, he never personally 'intervened' in things, most of them just asked the maids around her Qiao'er to hint at letting the people who were attached to her do these things, and today, not to mention that Steward Chen did things to defraud them, that is, she went to her uncle's study in person every day, which was weird.
"The eldest master really sent someone to find the fourth master for this matter, but unfortunately, the fourth master still went his own way and didn't go home at all." Qiu'er didn't know what Li Ronghua was thinking, but she continued to speak on her own.
Li Ronghua thought for a while and said lightly: "Since the Li family goes to the eldest master every day, you want to find a way to get close to the eldest master's study and listen, what they are talking about, if they really want my father to come back, it is also a good thing." β
Qiu'er heard that she was going to listen to the corner of the wall, or the corner of the old man's study, and her face was a little bad, after all, she was a maid in the four-room house, and it was not convenient to go to the big room at all, but when she looked up and saw Li Ronghua's cold look, she was so frightened that she hurried up.
"Don't worry, if things are done well, I will reward you with fifty taels of silver when the time comes, you can save like this, and when you leave the house, you can buy some fields and maids, and you can also be a little master." Li Ronghua saw that Qiu'er should respond to this matter, so he gave another sweetness.
Qiu'er, who was originally depressed, would immediately become 'refreshed': "Don't worry, master, I will definitely handle this matter well, and listen to all the words of the fourth lady and the eldest master." β
"Well, let's wait for me to wash up with Yan'er."
Li Ronghua slept peacefully this night, but the mansion was unstable because of Steward Chen's affairs.
After the eldest lady dealt with the matter of Steward Chen, she went to the old lady to report the matter carefully, and the old lady was also interesting, so she asked the eldest lady to go back, saying that she would handle this matter by herself, and then sent a maid to Li's house, but when she came back, it was still the maid who came back alone, and then the matter passed quietly.
Li Ronghua woke up to this matter, ordered someone to go to the outer courtyard to wait for Dr. Qu to arrive, and after leading Dr. Qu to come in to see him, he invited Qing'er to ask her about the condition of her fifth brother during her absence, and Qing'er said it by the way.
Li Ronghua frowned and frowned at this, the old lady's way of dealing with it was really strange, either she was eccentric, or she felt that she and Li Qiuyi were not important at all, so it was okay to toss it clearly, but tossing it like this made the Li Mansion even more 'chaotic'.
There is no punishment for doing wrong things, there are no family rules, how did such a Li Mansion survive for so long in the previous life, and still rise step by step, and no one outside can catch the handle of the Li Mansion?
There was no more news to analyze the things in front of him, Li Ronghua could only put aside the things in front of him, and only asked about the situation of the fifth brother during her absence.
"The fourth lady seems to be very busy during this time, and she doesn't care about the affairs of the 'girl' concubine, only any maid and wife arrange it by herself, and even let go of the things that invited the ladies into her room to chat in the past." Naturally, she didn't take advantage of her absence to 'meddle' in the affairs of the fifth brother.
Li Ronghua was relieved when she heard this, she was not in the house during this time, she was most worried about the fifth brother, even when she left, she begged the eldest aunt to take care of the fifth brother, and told Qing'er to bother more, just about to go to the house of the fifth brother to have a look, then I heard the maid come in to report that the doctor Qu was coming.
