Ever since Min Yueqing uttered those words, Liu has been on tenterhooks, fearing that this shameful affair might involve some powerful figure. If that powerful figure relentlessly investigates the quack doctor, they might inadvertently uncover her own involvement, ruining her reputation for life.

I'm afraid that when that time really comes, it will be a small matter if my own reputation is ruined, but my children will also be dragged down and unable to hold their heads high.

As for Master Pei, although he usually doesn't care about anything and his only hobby is indulging in pleasure, he values ​​his reputation very much. If Madam Liu dares to make him look so bad, he will definitely write a letter of divorce himself.

Now that Liu Mama's words had relieved her of this worry, Liu's pale face regained some vitality.

Liu was naturally suspicious, and once her worries subsided, she began to ponder Min Yueqing's words again.

She couldn't shake the feeling that Min Yueqing's words weren't baseless, and couldn't help but mutter to herself, "Is it really just a coincidence that there's a doctor in the capital whose entire family has escaped, or...?"

Upon closer reflection, Liu was horrified.

Could it be that Min Yueqing deliberately made up this story to deceive her?

That makes sense. Otherwise, why would Min Yueqing have bothered to talk to her and chat about everyday things? What's hateful is that she didn't realize Min Yueqing's malicious intentions in time.

Madam Liu paced back and forth in the room for a couple of steps, then grabbed Liu Mama's arm and asked urgently, "When you left the manor today, was anyone with you?"

Granny Liu was completely bewildered. After receiving the order, she rushed home in a hurry and had no time to pay attention to her surroundings. At this moment, she was also secretly alarmed, but she forced herself to remain calm and said, "There shouldn't be any."

When Liu saw the shifty look in Liu's eyes, she understood everything.

After sighing for a moment, Liu's face suddenly turned ruthless. "Min Yueqing, since you are heartless, don't blame me for being unjust."

Madam Liu immediately summoned Granny Liu to her side and gave her a brief explanation of the arrangements.

Hejingyuan

That morning, Min Yueqing lay lazily on a rattan chair in the courtyard and closed her eyes for a nap.

Ever since Liu herself said she was feeling better, Min Yueqing has stopped even going over for formalities and has been comfortably staying in the courtyard.

Of course, the plan to go to the village outside the city was also temporarily put on hold.

Now that there was some progress on the matter of the quack doctor, Min Yueqing decided to wait a little longer and see if she could resolve the issue all at once.

Min Yueqing was particularly fond of the rattan chair in the courtyard because its location was excellent. It was placed in the shade of a large tree, providing both shade and a view of the vibrant summer scenery.

Especially the small pond in front of us, where lotus flowers are blooming in profusion, some red and vibrant, others pink and lovely. A gentle breeze carries the fragrance of the flowers, making it all the more beautiful.

After finishing his exercise for the day, taking a shower, and changing his clothes, Pei Ji huffed and puffed as he ran over to find his mother.

Even before the person arrived, Min Yueqing had already noticed the familiar, lively pace.

Min Yueqing silently counted in her mind, and opened her eyes at the exact moment. Sure enough, she saw the little one's energetic face after exercising.

Pei Ji pouted his rosy lips. He had originally wanted to secretly scare his mother, but she found out beforehand. Since he had already been discovered, he decided to throw caution to the wind and rush into his mother's arms.

Min Yueqing reached out and caught the soft little baby, taking a satisfied suckle.

Pei Ji hugged his mother and said excitedly, "Mother, I ran even faster today than yesterday, and I did two more push-ups too!"

As she spoke, she adorably held up two fingers and waved them, her proud little expression almost melting Min Yueqing's heart.

Min Yueqing immediately smiled and praised, "Lele is really amazing, she's improving every day."

She then held the little one in her arms and gently massaged his soft little arms, and even massaged his two little legs one by one.

Although Min Yueqing had told them long ago that they must stretch after exercising, how could they refuse the chance to pet the little one?

Pei Ji was both praised and received a gentle massage from his mother, so he was very satisfied and nestled happily in his mother's shoulder.

The mother and son spent a long time being affectionate, and Shi Tou finally finished his exercise and ran over in a flash.

Stone said happily, "When I was changing my clothes just now, I heard people outside talking about how a lot of venison was delivered today, and they said it was very fresh!"

Besides practicing martial arts, Shi Tou's greatest hobby is eating. If he hears about delicious food, he feels more energetic even when he's doing a horse stance.

On this point, Min Yueqing and he had a lot to talk about.

After all, the two were, in a way, in the same boat. One came from a post-apocalyptic world that could be described as a culinary wasteland, while the other had never had a proper meal since he could remember.

On the contrary, Pei Ji, who had lived in the Earl's Mansion since childhood, was never picky about food and never wanted to eat anything too elaborate. Except for being mistreated for a few months last year, he had never experienced hunger and had no particular attachment to food.

Therefore, Min Yueqing's expectations for lunch were slightly raised upon hearing that there was excellent venison.

Of course, Min Yueqing didn't forget to ask Shi Tou, "Did you do the stretching exercises I taught you before?"

Shi Tou nodded quickly. He would remember every word his master said, especially those related to martial arts training. He never dared to slack off and completed every step perfectly.

Ever since his benefactor started teaching him martial arts, he has started calling him "Master." His master did not reject the title, but he instructed him not to call him that in front of outsiders in the mansion.

To be honest, at Shi Tou's age, he has already passed the best time to practice martial arts.

However, he has not been idle at home in recent years, but has been traveling around, so his basic physical fitness is still acceptable. He has also shown great interest and desire to practice martial arts, so Min Yueqing is willing to start with the basics and teach him slowly.

Several months have passed since she came to this world. She not only has a cute and adorable son, but also an apprentice. Min Yueqing has accepted this well.

It was almost noon when Min Yueqing slowly walked back with the two children.

Sure enough, no sooner had they returned to their room than Amei came to invite them to dinner.

Upon entering the east wing, the group sat down and saw that there were indeed two more dishes of venison on the table: one was stew, and the other was roasted venison. Min Yueqing picked up a piece of roasted venison herself, but as soon as she put it to her mouth, she smelled something was wrong.

Min Yueqing immediately stopped the two children who were picking up the dish, saying, "Don't eat it yet!"

Pei Ji rarely saw his mother so serious, so he immediately put down his chopsticks as instructed.

Although Shi Tou was a little reluctant, obeying his master's words had long become a conditioned reflex for him, so he followed suit and threw the meat he had already picked up back onto the plate.

Min Yueqing sneered. They actually tricked her with the ingredients! If she hadn't awakened her medical abilities, she would have really fallen for it. She slowly scanned the people in the room. Amei and Azhu were trustworthy, but the other two girls were not so trustworthy.
