Chapter 138: Expectation



Liu'er let out a scream so loud and long that the servants surrounding her had to cover their ears.

Liu Er breaks away from them.

"What are you doing! You bastards!" she shouted angrily, glaring at the maids around her.

"Miss Liu'er," the maids said with a sneer, "Don't be angry with yourself. It's not worth hurting your hand."

Liu'er was so angry that she pouted.

"I'm not stupid," she scolded. "Can't I see that you are protecting that little bitch?"

Speaking of this, I feel both aggrieved and angry.

"You are only bullying me, bullying my young lady because she has no help." She shouted, "So what? Are we afraid of you? I tell you, I am not afraid! I am not afraid of you no matter how many people there are!"

As she spoke, she charged towards Lingzhi who was hiding nearby.

Lingzhi screamed and ran, but was still a step too slow and was bumped into by Liu'er.

Liu'er fell on top of her.

"If you don't take the medicine, I will strangle you to death." She shouted and stretched out her hand to strangle Lingzhi's neck.

The servants rushed over in fear.

Yuan and Su no longer dared to watch the excitement and were about to go to the front door when Madam Fang came in with her people.

The shouts of "The Madam is coming" did not make Liu'er let go.

Mrs. Fang did not scold her, but waved her hand. Several maids following behind her immediately rushed forward, trying to comfort Liu'er but actually blocking her.

A maid then came forward and took out a medicine bowl from the food box and replaced the one Liu'er brought.

Yuan and Su were somewhat surprised and somewhat understood.

Mrs. Fang really came, and she was unwilling to give up any hope and would not let the girl who had had sex with Fang Chengyu once be drugged.

Am I right? Yuan winked at Su.

"Alright, alright, get up."

Seeing that the maid had changed the medicine, Mrs. Fang spoke.

The maids did not hesitate any longer and quickly separated Liu'er and Lingzhi.

When Liu'er saw Mrs. Fang, she became even angrier.

"My lady has given an order. Even the emperor cannot stop her." She shouted, struggling hard. "Unless you strangle me to death, you can't stop me."

Mrs. Fang frowned and glanced at her.

"Isn't it just feeding medicine?" she said. "What's the fuss? Just feed it."

Liu'er was startled, and Lingzhi's face turned pale.

"Miss Liu'er, is this it?" Yuan Shi hurriedly picked up the medicine bowl on the table that was replaced by Madam Fang. "I'll feed her."

As she spoke, she walked quickly to Lingzhi and reached out to pinch Lingzhi's chin.

Lingzhi shed tears and shook her head to avoid it.

"I want to see the young master, I want to see the young master." she cried.

If such a girl was left alone at any other time, Mrs. Fang would have kicked her out.

Why does Chengyu like this girl?

This is also my fault, but who would have thought that Chengyu would have such a day. He is old enough and he has no choice of the people in the house.

As a result, the maid took the lead.

"Just drink if I tell you to. Why are you meeting Young Master?" she shouted with raised eyebrows.

Lingzhi kept crying.

"Why don't you listen to me, little girl!" Yuan Shi seemed anxious, pinching Lingzhi's chin and approaching her viciously.

"Yes, drink it now."

"Don't be ignorant."

"If you don't drink, will I sell you out?"

The maids around understood Yuan's intention and started talking at once. The room became noisy.

Yuan took advantage of the noise to whisper close to Lingzhi's ear.

"Madam has changed the medicine. It's for your own good. Madam will never hurt anyone that the young master likes." She whispered, "This is just a pretense to appease the young mistress."

There was surprise in Lingzhi's eyes.

Yuanshi had pushed her again.

"Drink it quickly." she shouted.

Liu'er pushed aside the maid who was blocking her and rushed over.

"I'll do it myself." She said, snatching the medicine bowl from Yuanshi's hand.

Liu'er didn't pour the medicine directly, but glanced at the medicine bowl first.

She remembered it clearly, and it was a small pink porcelain bowl that was used.

On the other hand, the medicine was not sprinkled in sufficient amount.

"Go away." Liu'er said reassuringly, squeezed Yuanshi away, pinched the Ganoderma lucidum and drank it.

This time Lingzhi cried and seemed unable to avoid drinking it, and she coughed repeatedly.

Liu'er didn't stop until there was not a drop left.

"You little bitch, you dirty my hands." She said, threw the pink porcelain bowl to the ground, threw down these words harshly, and walked away.

Lingzhi fell to the ground and cried breathlessly.

"Keep a close eye on her." Mrs. Fang said, turning around and going out.

Yuan instructed the maid to carry Lingzhi. Su, who was standing nearby, came over first and offered her hand to carry her.

"Don't cry. Crying at this time will only make people upset." She said, taking out a handkerchief to wipe the medicine juice off Lingzhi's mouth and body.

Lingzhi was somewhat flattered.

Is this the benefit of being the young master's favorite?

"Okay, don't worry about her. There are so many people here." Yuan said to Su, "Let's go."

She turned and walked out. Su let go of Lingzhi, tucked the handkerchief back into her sleeve and walked away.

"How is he?"

Seeing Mrs. Fang come in, Old Mrs. Fang in the room asked.

"She's fine. I've asked someone to take good care of her." Mrs. Fang said, and then paused. "Why don't we ask the maids at home to check her body..."

"I didn't ask her." Old Mrs. Fang frowned and said, "I was talking about Chengyu."

Mrs. Fang could not hide her excitement.

"Mother, Chengyu is fine. Even though he did this, he is not tired at all and is in good spirits." She said excitedly.

Because she had already heard it from Miss Jun, Mrs. Fang was not too excited when she heard Mrs. Fang's confirmation.

Instead, he looked solemn because of the crisis he was about to face.

"Mother." Mrs. Fang was a little uneasy. "It was Chengyu who did it. Isn't Zhenzhen happy?"

But it was clearly said to be a fake marriage, so it wouldn’t be too much for Chengyu to sleep with a girl. If he really did something to her, would she agree?

Old Madam Fang glanced at Madam Fang. She could not blame her for only caring about such trivial matters. Fang Chengyu's recovery was indeed a huge shock to a mother.

"What's that girl's name?" asked Old Lady Fang.

This time I asked the girl.

"Her name is Lingzhi," Mrs. Fang said hurriedly. "She has been with Chengyu for five or six years. Although she has been doing some odd jobs, she is still very considerate in serving Chengyu."

Old Mrs. Fang repeated the name.

"Did she volunteer?" she asked.

Mrs. Fang laughed.

"Mother, Chengyu is feeling a little better, but he can't even stand steadily. If she hadn't volunteered, how could Chengyu have done this?" she said.

It makes her sound like her son is a sex maniac.

Mrs. Fang couldn't help but put her hands on her face, feeling very embarrassed as a mother.

"That's good." Old Madam Fang said, "Did she drink the tonic soup?"

Mrs. Fang nodded.

"Mom, do you think she will be able to hit the target in one shot?" she said excitedly.

Old Mrs. Fang stroked her forehead.

"Give her the tonic and keep an eye on her," she said, with a hint of seriousness, "to prevent anyone from doing anything wrong."

"Yes, mother, I will keep her with me to prevent her from being harmed by that girl Liu'er." Mrs. Fang said.

Old Mrs. Fang looked at her with a strange expression.

"Why would Liu'er harm her? Now everyone knows that Chengyu is fine and has slept with a girl who might get pregnant. Our enemies must also know about it. We have to be on guard against them. What are you thinking?" she said.

It was like a thunderclap, and Mrs. Fang woke up with a start.

She was so happy that she forgot about it.

"Mother, get rid of all the people who have been found out in the past few days in our house." She regained her composure and said in a deep voice.

Ever since Jun Zhenzhen brought up the fact that their enemy had killed three generations of male descendants, they had checked everyone in their family and found that many of them indeed behaved strangely, but in order not to alert the enemy, they pretended not to know and let them do what they wanted, only secretly strengthening their protection.

Now that Fang Chengyu has recovered, in order to prevent him from being harmed, it is natural to eliminate these people.

"There's no point in doing this now, it will only expose us," said Mrs. Fang.

Wasn't it already exposed? Chengyu showed his improvement in front of others, so wouldn't their efforts to cover up Chengyu's treatment and marriage be exposed?

"We certainly weren't exposed."

Old Mrs. Fang was thinking about what Miss Jun had just said in the study.

She held a pen and wrote on the paper.

"It's true as the rumor goes that we wanted Chengyu to have a baby. We didn't know Chengyu was poisoned, and we didn't know someone was plotting against him."

After she finished speaking, she handed over a piece of written paper and smiled at Old Mrs. Fang.

"They don't know that we know. When they come to our house to do something, we won't be the prey. They will be the prey." Old Mrs. Fang subconsciously reached out to take it. Seeing the names of the herbs written on it, she realized that this was another prescription.

But her attention was not on the prescription.

"So we'll be seeing our enemy soon?" she said.

Miss Jun put down her pen and smiled.

"Yes," she said. "Are you happy?"
