Chapter 88 Do you think I dare to hit you?
Mrs. Liang used the best medicine for Mo Yunwan.
After resting in bed for half a month, Mo Yunwan was finally able to walk again.
She immediately took a carriage to the post station to find Shen Qingyuan.
But she came at an inopportune time. Shen Qingyuan had gone out, and Chunxi was the only one in the post station.
Chunxi had just washed and hung up the clothes that Shen Qingyuan had taken off yesterday, and when she returned to the room, she saw Mo Yunwan sitting on the bed.
"Young Madam, are you able to walk?"
Chunxi was a little surprised at Mo Yunwan's recovery ability, while Mo Yunwan looked her up and down.
In her memory, Qingshu was the only follower around Shen Qingyuan, and she had never heard of someone like Cao Er.
But now Qingshu stays in the Liang family, and Cao Er returns to the post station to take care of Chen Lang's daily life. He is actually more trustworthy than Qingshu.
"Ahem."
Mo Yunwan covered her lips and coughed twice before she said, "I remember you followed me to the Liang family that day. Why did you go back to Shen Lang? Is there no one else who can take care of Shen Lang?"
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has provided so many people to help, there is no need for her to go to the Liang family and work hard to gather intelligence. Naturally, she has to stay by his side to take care of him.
However, these words could not be said to Mo Yunwan. Chunxi smiled and said, "Replying to the young lady, the others are all public servants. The master has always been clear about the distinction between public and private affairs. Brother Qingshu is at the Liang family to look after the young lady, so I am the only one who can take care of the master."
In fact, she didn't take much care of herself. There was someone cooking at the post station. Shen Qingyuan was busy during the day, so she just ate and walked around the city and tasted Xuzhou cuisine.
Chunxi's answer was indeed consistent with Shen Qingyuan's style. Mo Yunwan did not doubt it. She looked around the room carefully and said, "I see your clothes are hanging in the room. Do you live with Shen Lang?"
Chunxi's clothes were not only hung in the room, but her shoes were also placed together with Shen Qingyuan's. There were two pillows on the bed, but only one quilt.
Even though Chunxi was dressed as a man now, Mo Yunwan felt very uncomfortable.
Chen Lang is aloof and doesn't like to get close to others. Every time her aunt took her to the Marquis's residence as a guest, Chen Lang ignored her. Otherwise, she would not have been deceived by the sweet-mouthed but treacherous actor.
But how could Chen Lang sleep in the same bed with a servant now?
Mo Yunwan frowned as she thought about this. Mrs. Zhang, who had come with her, immediately scolded Chunxi, "There are differences between the high and the low. Even if Lord Shen is lenient towards his servants, you still have to know your limits. Are you really capable of sleeping on Lord Shen's bed?"
As she spoke, Mrs. Zhang threw all of Chunxi's things to the ground and said arrogantly, "My wife is worried that Madam Shen won't be able to live well in the post station, so she specially sent a new bed and various supplies. Don't just stand there like an idiot. Move the things out of the room and rearrange it."
Chunxi stood still, and at this moment a surprised voice came: "Sister-in-law, you are really still alive."
As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Qingyu pushed Chunxi away and rushed to Mo Yunwan.
"Third brother?" Mo Yunwan smiled a surprised yet weak smile, and then said with emotion, "I've been missing for so long, and Chen Lang is avoiding me now. I didn't expect that third brother would actually be willing to acknowledge me as his sister-in-law."
Mo Yunwan was wearing a plain green dress today, and her black hair was tied up with a wooden hairpin. Her eyebrows were curved, and she wore no makeup. She looked like a small white flower stained with morning dew, which was very adorable.
Shen Qingyu felt that this eldest sister-in-law was much more beautiful than he remembered. He quickly said, "The eldest sister-in-law got into trouble because she was looking for the eldest brother. The eldest brother owed the eldest sister-in-law. Now the eldest sister-in-law has come back after going through untold hardships and proved her innocence. Everyone in the Marquis' Mansion recognizes the eldest sister-in-law as the eldest young master's wife."
Shen Qingyu answered without hesitation, and his tone was particularly firm, as if in his memory, there was no such thing as his eldest brother remarrying.
Mo Yunwan was so moved that her eyes turned red. She gently asked about Mo's health, as well as the situation of Shen Qingyue and Shen Qingchi. Shen Qingyu told her everything he knew.
Seeing that the uncle and his wife were chatting happily, Mrs. Zhang glared at Chunxi in dissatisfaction: "Why are you standing here instead of working?"
Only after being reminded by Mrs. Zhang did Shen Qingyu realize that there was another person in the room.
When he saw Chunxi's face clearly, Shen Qingyu's face froze.
He was deeply impressed by the scene of Chunxi's fight with Xiao Qingyue that day. Seeing Mrs. Zhang ordering Chunxi around like this, he couldn't help but turn around and ask Mo Yunwan: "Sister-in-law, do you know who she is?"
Mo Yunwan nodded: "I know, she is my husband's newly promoted personal attendant Cao Er."
Shen Qingyu's eyes widened slightly: "Is this how my eldest brother introduced her to you?"
When we were in the Marquis' Mansion, didn't my eldest brother protect this woman very much? Why is he not brave enough to acknowledge her identity now?
The number of times Mo Yunwan had seen Shen Qingyuan these days could be counted on one hand. She didn't even have time to talk to Shen Qingyuan, so how could she have the energy to care about the origins of this man named Cao Er?
Besides, why would a personal attendant be worthy of Shen Qingyuan personally introducing her?
Mo Yunwan was a little annoyed by Shen Qingyu's repeated questioning. She didn't answer the question, but just said: "These are all trivial matters. Third brother, tell me more about your eldest brother. I have been away for so many years, and he hasn't remarried. Does he have any confidantes around him?"
When Shen Qingyu heard Mo Yunwan say that Shen Qingyuan did not remarry, he was stunned at first, but then he breathed a sigh of relief and became happy.
He said that Cao Chunxi was a shrew who was not worthy of being on the stage. How could his elder brother possibly like a woman like her? Now that his elder brother's sister-in-law was back, the contrast was even more obvious. As long as his elder brother had a normal mind, he would choose his elder brother's sister-in-law as his wife.
Cao Chunxi has fallen out of favor.
Thinking of the slap he had received before, Shen Qingyu gritted his teeth and secretly gathered strength in his hands.
It is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge.
Today he is going to put a damper on Cao Chunxi's arrogance!
Thinking of this, Shen Qingyu quickly turned around and rushed towards Chunxi, waving his hand with all his strength to slap Chunxi in the face. However, before his hand touched Chunxi's face, he was kicked away.
His body was briefly suspended in the air, and then landed heavily on the ground. Unfortunately, he hit the bench when he fell.
Shen Qingyu felt as if all his internal organs had been dislocated by the kick, and he curled up in pain, wailing.
No, isn’t Cao Chunxi born in the year of the Ox? How can she be so strong?
And how did she know he was going to hit her?
Chunxi was not a worm in Shen Qingyu's stomach, so of course she didn't know that he was going to hit her, but the evil smile on Shen Qingyu's face after he heard what Mo Yunwan said made Chunxi very unhappy.
So she decided to fulfill her duties as the eldest sister-in-law and teach her younger brother a lesson. He should not show such an expression when going out in the future, otherwise he would get beaten easily.
The incident happened so quickly that it wasn't until Shen Qingyu cried out in pain that Mrs. Zhang reacted. She pointed at Chunxi and angrily cursed, "You bastard, how dare you hit the Third Young Master of the Marquisate?"
Chunxi looked at Mrs. Zhang's hand that was about to poke her face, and said with a crooked look, "I even dare to hit him, do you think I dare to hit you?"
Mrs. Zhang: “…”
