Chapter 702: The girl who washes feet wants to take the position (45)
"You can't drink it." There was a loud shout outside the door, and Sui'er's hands trembled, and a lot of water in the cup spilled out.
Zong Ying pushed Sui'er away without thinking, and ran towards Shi Yi barefoot, hugged her like a child seeking a sense of security, and said in a low voice, "You're back."
"Master, Sui'er has fallen into the trap of the eldest wife." Shi Yi patted him on the back and looked at Sui'er with a dazed face, "Sister Sui'er, do you think the eldest wife is really that kind? If she is willing to let you serve the master, then why didn't she want to when you followed her?"
Sui'er held down her shaking wrist and refuted her, "The eldest wife explained, she said that she was too depressed at that time and felt that there were enough threats in the mansion. The eldest wife said that she has really thought it through now. She can't give birth to a son anyway. As long as I give birth to a son for the master and don't think about her position as the eldest wife, I can live in peace with her for the rest of my life."
"Do you believe what the first wife said?" Shi Yi said in an aggressive tone, "Sister Sui'er, are you stupid or the first wife? After you give birth to the master's child, will you still be willing to be a concubine? Is the old housekeeper willing to let you be a concubine? Anyone with a discerning eye can figure it out, why do you fall into the trap?"
"Don't try to sow discord here anymore." Sui'er yelled, "Why are you meddling in what's going on between me and the first wife!"
"Sister Sui'er, I searched your room." Shi Yi took out a medicine bag from his sleeve, "This was given to you by the first wife, right?"
"Who gave you the right!" Sui'er widened her eyes. If the master hadn't been here, she would have gone up and torn this bold little hoof apart with her bare hands.
"Didn't the eldest lady tell you that these are good herbs for your health?" Shi Yi dumped all the medicine bags on the ground, and said with great sorrow, "These medicines can indeed maintain the body when used alone, but once mixed, they will only make women infertile. Do you still remember the red agate bracelet that the eldest lady gave me? The bracelet is filled with medicinal powder, exactly the same as the one you have here."
"You are not a doctor!" Sui'er's flickering eyes have already shown that she has begun to waver.
"I asked Doctor Ma Jingyang to identify it. Otherwise, do you think I, a maid, can understand so much?!" Shi Yi patted Zong Ying's hand, softened his expression and approached Sui'er, "Sister Sui'er, I know you have no bad intentions towards the master. You just like the master too much. The eldest lady wants to use you to harm the master. Do you really want to listen to her?"
"Why does the eldest lady want to harm the master?" Her hand loosened, and the cup fell to the ground and broke into pieces.
"This is what happened between the first wife and the master." Shi Yi turned his head and glanced at Wu'er, who quickly stepped forward and tied up Sui'er.
Sui'er punched and kicked, "Let me go. Let me go..."
"Sister Sui'er, I'm sorry to trouble you. Cooperate with us in a play." Shi Yi personally folded a handkerchief and stuffed it into her mouth.
Zong Ying had never seen such a calm woman. No, not just calm. She was strategizing like a wise man.
"Master, I'm sorry to trouble you." Shi Yi pulled his hand to the bed and commanded, "Master, lie down. I have asked the old housekeeper to spread the word that you are poisoned and unconscious."
"I..." He opened his lips.
Shi Yi covered his face with the prepared white powder and said softly, "Master, don't you want to know why the first wife wanted to poison you?"
Zong Ying was speechless and closed his eyes according to her arrangement.
Half an hour later, the first wife Li Muting, dressed in a gorgeous dress, appeared in front of Zong Ying's bed.
She looked at the pale-lipped man lying on the bed in a daze, crying and laughing, "You are dead after all."
"Madam, everything is finally as you wished." Shi Yi walked towards her with a red face.
Behind Shi Yi was Wu'er who was holding Sui'er. He also had an angry look in his eyes.
"No." Li Muting looked back at her with madness in her eyes, "You are still alive."
"I am just a foot washer, how can I bother you, Madam?"
"How can you bother me? Tell me how you can bother me. You are a foot washer, but you actually caught the attention of the master and were even taken as his new wife. You dare to say that all this was not guided by your ambition. Don't pretend to be innocent in front of me." Li Muting wished she would die, only her death could calm the real anger in her heart.
"The first wife will soon get what she wants. The master is dead, and this clan is yours." Shi Yi said sarcastically, "The first wife must have waited for this day for a long time."
"Yes. For a long time." Li Muting, who thought she was the winner, no longer cared. She stood up and walked towards Shi Yi, the bitch, and slapped her without any hesitation, "Do you know that I hate people competing with me the most?"
Sui'er was tied up, and her face hurt when she heard the voice, but Shi Yi seemed unconscious and continued to provoke.
"I hate people competing with me the most too."
"You?" Li Muting poked her heart with her sharp nails, "You are a foot washer, are you qualified to compete with me?"
"I am a foot washer, so what?"
"Snap",
Shi Yi's right face swelled up quickly.
"I'll show you what happens if you argue with me." Li Muting pinched her chin and moved close to her face. "I didn't take you seriously at first, I thought you wouldn't last for a few days. But I underestimated you. You pushed me step by step, and I almost lost my composure."
"The master is so good to you, the first wife..."
Shi Yi was slapped again.
"If he was really good to me, there wouldn't be a second wife and a third wife. I wouldn't have to take those bitter tonics that make people feel sour. He wouldn't stop touching me." Li Muting pinched her face tightly and said indignantly, "He no longer regards me as a woman. Is he really good to me? I was young before, and I know how a man looks at a woman. He changed first. He deserves what he has today."
As if to agree with what she said, she forced Shi Yi to nod his head, but Shi Yi stubbornly refused to lower his head.
"Madam, don't you remember the kindness that the master showed you when he was alive?"
"Nice? He was kind to me before." Li Muting's eyes were empty and numb. "In the first three years of my marriage, I was not pregnant at all. The elders in the clan always put pressure on me to find a concubine for him, and he personally blocked it. But I don't know when he suddenly changed."
"Why am I telling you so much?" Li Muting put away her dazed smile and shouted to the old housekeeper standing outside the door, "Tie up Shi Yi and Wu Er, they are trying to kill the master, Chen Tang."
