When they came back, they didn't see anyone else.
She was stopped by the concubines just now and didn't realize this problem.
But now...
The housekeeper frowned and said, "Let's take the doctor in first."
"Yes."
The little maid raised her hand to wipe away her tears, "Please, doctor, please come with me."
The little maid brought the doctor in.
Seeing this, the concubines could only pull their handkerchiefs.
"All the ladies, please return to your own courtyards first. If you are worried about Madam, I will have someone inform you of Madam's condition later."
Upon hearing this, the group of concubines did not dare to stay any longer: "Okay. Thank you for your help, housekeeper."
As they talked, they pushed each other and walked away.
As soon as the others left, the housekeeper's face darkened: "Wenming, go and see where everyone in the Madam's yard has gone."
Although he was the chief steward of the entire mansion, most of the time he was only in charge of the area outside the second gate.
The female members of the family in the second gate also have a housekeeper.
If he hadn't found anyone at the second gate today, he wouldn't have wanted to come in.
After all, he was not only a butler, but also a general's subordinate.
But I didn't expect that I would discover such a big mistake by chance!
If he hadn't immediately sent for a doctor...
Civilization responded and went down.
After a while, she came back with a group of maids.
The housekeeper ignored them and only asked Wenming: "Where did you find it?"
Wenming replied, "Housekeeper, these maids were just in the old lady's yard, playing with the maids there!"
"Nonsense!" the butler shouted coldly, "You guys are actually playing during your duty hours?!"
Civilization is also a bit speechless.
When he went over just now, the old lady said:
"Just let them play. They're just kids, playing and making noise, and my yard will be popular."
But he didn't dare tell this to the housekeeper at the moment.
I can only wait until I get back and tell it quietly.
"The old lady and the lady gave us permission to go and have fun!"
One of the maids in green replied with her neck stiffened.
The housekeeper looked at her and saw that her face still showed pride and resentment.
The housekeeper sneered: "You are right. Then you can continue to play! Be civilized and send them to the old lady's yard!"
A group of maids:???
What's the meaning?
Wenming knew that the butler was planning to ask the Marquis for instructions directly, so he immediately made a "please" gesture:
"Sisters, please come in."
The maids looked at each other, unable to understand what was going on, and simply waved their hands and turned away.
The housekeeper's eyes darkened.
This backyard doesn't seem as harmonious as he and the Marquis imagined!
When the doctor came out, he asked the maid to greet his wife on his behalf, and then left with the doctor.
After they left the second door, he asked, "How is the lady?"
The doctor looked at the housekeeper and hesitated to speak.
The housekeeper was speechless: "Old Geng, what do you mean? Why are you acting like a woman?"
Lao Geng: ...
"You're just a bitch! I... ahem... well, let's talk while we walk."
Damn, I almost failed.
The housekeeper laughed and nodded: "Okay, let's go."
Lao Geng used to be a military doctor in the army.
Later, when he got older, he let his apprentice take over.
I heard that he went back to his hometown to visit relatives.
He was invited back by his own general just last month.
Lao Geng snorted and ignored him.
After walking out of the second gate for a long time, he lowered his voice and said, "Old man, our general's house is not peaceful!"
The housekeeper frowned: "What do you mean?"
"Madam has been poisoned, did you know that?"
"What?!" the butler exclaimed and looked at Lao Geng in disbelief.
"Besides, this slow-acting poison has been administered for several years. If it continues, I'm afraid my life will be in danger!"
The housekeeper's face darkened. "Every month the mansion arranges for someone to check the pulse of everyone in the family."
Of course, he didn't doubt his old friend's words.
Old Geng also understood: "I'm afraid there's something wrong with that doctor."
"But the doctor is the old lady..."
The butler's voice suddenly stopped.
I remembered that the maids in the main courtyard were playing in the old lady's yard just now.
But on weekdays, it seems that the old lady and the lady get along very well.
The housekeeper felt a little uneasy and took Lao Geng's hand: "This matter is serious. Please wait a moment. I will send someone to take you to the military camp to see the general. You can explain it in detail to the general."
"Okay." Lao Geng didn't refuse.
The housekeeper became more and more uneasy, and he hurriedly pulled Lao Geng to his room.
Grind the ink quickly and write a letter.
He told everything that had happened at home after Marquis Dingyuan left.
After finishing writing and drying it, he handed the letter to Lao Geng: "Give the letter to the general."
"Okay! Don't worry!"
Lao Geng put the letter in his arms and left with Wenming.
The housekeeper has already arranged for other people to start investigating the affairs of the inner courtyard.
To be honest, such a big thing happened in the inner courtyard, but he was completely unaware of it. This was his dereliction of duty.
*
Marquis Dingyuan did not hide the fact that he sent his son to the military camp from anyone.
When Concubine Yi heard this, she just said "I know" and didn't say anything else.
Xiaojiu smiled.
Xiao Shi's face was full of envy.
He looked at his ninth brother and asked tentatively, "Ninth brother, tell me, if I ask the emperor that I should not go to the Imperial College and go to the military camp instead, would he agree?"
Xiaojiu looked at his brother in surprise: "Xiaoshi, do you like martial arts?"
