Chapter 258 Wu Jie
Mrs. Wu Jie of Xiluo came over at some point. She looked at the medicine in Lloyd Cassi's hand with a cold face, and reached out to knock over the medicine box in his hand!
Several white pills rolled on the ground, scattered in different places. One of them landed at Yu Manman's feet...
"She's already alive and kicking, why is she still taking medicine?" Wu Jie glanced at Wu Yingyue and snorted coldly, "It's a waste to use it on her! She's been taking it for so many years, and she's still taking it? Be careful of the opposite effect!"
Wu Yingyue was a little at a loss.
"Madam..." Lloyd Cassi frowned, a hint of dissatisfaction flashed in his eyes, "This is what the master ordered."
"He ordered it? Even if Wu Yingyue is a patient, is he a doctor?" Wu Jie is not afraid of him. "I don't know what kind of weird medicine he is. He has been taking it for so many years, and he is not afraid of killing people!"
There was a hint of resentment in Wu Jie's tone that she herself had not noticed.
Lloyd Cassi's attention was focused on the pills scattered on the ground, and he didn't notice anything wrong. Even if he had noticed, he wouldn't have found it strange.
The eldest lady herself has grievances against the husband.
Whenever her husband has any ideas, she has to say something.
Lloyd Cassie reached out and bent down to pick up the pills on the ground.
"Am I wrong?" Wu Jie stretched out his foot and stepped on a pill. "If this medicine is effective, why doesn't the sickly Zhou family use it? Isn't his health not good either? Why hasn't his health improved?"
Lloyd Cassi paused and looked at Wu Jie dimly.
[Did the Madam notice something? Did she spill the medicine on purpose? She shouldn't have done that, right? She hates Wu Yingyue so much, why would she stop her?]
Yu Manman's eyes moved slightly.
Is there something wrong with the medicine Wu Yingyue is taking?
Yu Manman looked at Wu Jie's moving feet and pursed her lips slightly.
"Really? Am I wrong? Wu Yingyue is an outsider, and Zhou Yanfeng is still a member of the Zhou family. Why doesn't he eat it, but insists that Wu Yingyue eat it!" Wu Jie sneered and said sarcastically, "Maybe it's that old woman from the Zhou family who wants Wu Yingyue to be a guinea pig for an experiment."
The coldness in Lloyd Cassi's eyes faded, and he suddenly realized.
The eldest lady has always disliked the old lady of the Zhou family. If she hadn't interfered, the eldest lady and Zhou Na would have finally gotten married. So, the eldest lady didn't want Wu Yingyue to take the medicine just because she was the old lady? Could it be that she also dislikes Wu Yingyue even more because she was raised by the Zhou family?
"Madam, don't worry. The Zhou family values Miss Yingyue very much." Lloyd Cassi said slowly, "Young Master Zhou Yanfeng also took this medicine, but his physique is not suitable for it. The Zhou family is still developing a new medicine suitable for him."
[Okay, so Zhou Yanfeng has taken it too. Could it be that his health is ruined by taking that medicine? I remember that when Zhou Yanfeng was a child, he was as strong as a calf!]
"Oh, if you say so, then so be it!" Wu Jie stomped his foot hard again and glanced at Wu Yingyue, "You are not allowed to take the Zhou family's medicine! Are you really not afraid of taking it?"
"Do you really think you're that weak? It was me! I raised you from a sickly child to a vibrant and energetic child. If Domenico hadn't taken you away from me and sent you to the Zhou family, you wouldn't have suffered so much over the years. Domenico is so selfish and heartless, he couldn't even harm his own daughter!"
Wu Jie looked at Wu Yingyue deeply.
"When Domenico brought you back, I shouldn't have been so soft-hearted as to adopt you and treat you like my own child just because my daughter died prematurely! Why am I meddling in other people's business? Can I be a bodhisattva who saves people from suffering? I can't even protect myself!"
She silently lowered her eyes that were flashing with bitterness, strode forward, poured into the crowd, and began to talk and laugh again.
Yu Manman looked at Wu Jie, who was smiling gently under the light opposite, and inexplicably felt that there was an unspeakable sadness behind her.
So, Yingyue wasn't Aunt Wu Jie's daughter at all? Was she adopted by Aunt Wu Jie?
Yingyue...is Domenico's illegitimate daughter?
Yu Manman looked at Wu Yingyue, his mind a little confused.
Moreover, Aunt Wu Jie doesn't seem to hate Yingyue as much as she appears to be. She seems to be a person who is tough on the outside but soft on the inside.
Yes, if Aunt Wu Jie really hated Yingyue so much, why would she let Yingyue take her surname?
Aunt Wu Jie was so mean to Yingyue, perhaps because she had no other choice. She could neither help Yingyue nor bear to see her suffer.
She probably guessed that there was something wrong with Yingyue's medicine, so she came over and destroyed the pills! She also told Yingyue not to take any more medicine.
So what kind of medicine is it?
A hint of doubt flashed in Yu Manman's eyes.
After Wu Jie left, Lloyd Cassi looked at the crushed medicine and frowned.
He picked up the medicine that was rolling not far away, feeling annoyed.
These medicines are difficult to make. Each one requires a significant amount of time and specialized medicine! And yet Wu Jie wasted them all like this...
"Uncle, here is another one." Yu Manman picked up the pill at his feet and did not keep it for himself. Instead, he returned it to Lloyd Cassi.
Since this pill is so important, Lloyd Cassie would never allow it to be left outside. There are only a few of them, and if she hides them, she will definitely be suspected.
Rather than alerting Lloyd Cassie, it would be better to hand it over to him.
"Thank you." Lloyd Cassi chuckled, picked up all the medicines that had rolled on the ground, and counted them to make sure nothing was missed.
He looked at the crushed medicine on the ground and called the servants, "Clean it up!"
[These medicines must not fall into the hands of others! ]
He didn't even rush to leave, but made sure everything on the ground was cleaned up before turning around and leaving...
Yu Manman looked at Lloyd Cassi and thought: It seems that there is really a big problem with this medicine!
Fortunately, when she picked up the pill, she had quietly scraped off a layer with her fingernails, and then quickly asked the system to help hide it!
When she returns, she must check what medicine Yingyue is taking!
And what about Zhou Yanfeng? How did his health collapse?
The Zhou family and the Hiro family have many secrets...
Yu Manman shifted her gaze and found that Wu Yingyue was in a low mood.
"Manman, tell me...why doesn't my mother like me?" Wu Yingyue's eyes flashed with confusion.
"Who said she doesn't like you? I think your mother cares about you very much! It's just that the way she expresses it is a little wrong!"
Wu Yingyue looked at Yu Manman hopefully, "Really?"
"Yes! Of course!" Yu Manman nodded seriously. "Believe me, she actually cares about you! If she didn't care about you, how could she tell you not to take medicine carelessly?"
"If you don't believe it, you can try it!"
Wu Yingyue's eyes lit up, "How do I try?"
Yu Manman whispered a few words in her ear...
