Chapter 13 013 Drive Away



What?! Is the girl going to send her home?! Liuli understood what Chu Qianchen meant, raised her head in disbelief, and said, "It's really not a servant..."

Chu Qianchen interrupted her: "You are not young anymore, young lady, I will show you mercy and not drag you to be with this boy."

Liuli is three years older than her and is almost sixteen years old this year.

According to the rules of the mansion, maids would usually be arranged to be married off when they were eighteen years old, and those maids who were respectable in front of their masters would continue to serve their masters as daughters-in-law after marriage.

Liuli was barely sixteen years old, far from being old enough for a maid to get married.

If she was sent back by the Marquis' Mansion at this time, anyone would know that she had committed a crime and displeased her master. What good future could she have after returning home? !

As she thought about it, the resentment in Liuli's eyes grew stronger, so strong that she could hardly hide it.

Chu Qianchen looked at Liuli with interest. In his previous life, he was raised to be too obedient and gentle at the age of thirteen, so much so that he didn't even notice that the servants around him had long since left him.

"Go ahead." Chu Qianchen said calmly, "I don't want to say it again."

Liuli clenched her fists and raised her head and said, "Miss, have you asked your aunt?"

Chu Qianchen looked into Liuli's eyes quietly.

Liuli was given to her by Aunt Jiang. In her previous life, not long after she was disfigured, Liuli's parents came to Aunt Jiang for help, saying that they had found a marriage for Liuli and wanted to take her back...

However, not long after, Liuli became her father's maid.

When he thought of this, Chu Qianchen felt nauseous.

"In that case, then you can go back to your aunt." Chu Qianchen's voice was still tender and gentle, neither light nor heavy, neither angry nor angry, but what he said made Liuli's heart beat, "My temple is too small to accommodate you. Go down."

Amber, who was standing by, was almost stunned by this scene.

She knew how much the girl trusted Liuli, but she didn't expect that the girl would actually drive Liuli away now, and do it so swiftly and decisively without any delay.

Amber calmed herself down, hurried over, pulled Liuli up from the ground, and said, "Liuli, go down first, don't be an eyesore here."

Liuli: “…”

Liuli bit her lower lip tightly.

She lowered her head, hiding the resentment in her eyes, and said, "Yes, young lady, I will go right away..."

She shook off Amber's hand and walked out without looking back.

Chu Qianchen didn't even look at her and drank his tea elegantly.

In her new life, she had so many things to do that she had no time to discipline a maid with ulterior motives.

"Amber," Chu Qianchen ordered, "bring over all the things I just bought."

Amber came back to her senses, responded, and hurried to do it.

Chu Qianchen went out and bought a lot of things. In addition to silver needles, there were also some medicinal materials, mortars and pestles. Amber placed these things one by one on an eight-immortal table.

Chu Qianchen stood up and walked to the Eight Immortals Table, his eyes slowly sweeping over these things.

What she wants to do is to make a big pill.

The production steps of Dazaowan are extremely complicated and time-consuming, so they must be prepared quickly.

Of course, the herbs she bought this time were far from enough, as there were many precious herbs that were not so easy to obtain.

"Last year when I lived in the manor, I read a few medical books privately." Chu Qianchen could naturally see what Amber was wondering about, so he just said a few words without further explanation.

There was no way she could hide the fact that she had medical skills, and she had no intention of hiding it. She even wanted to become famous with it, so she couldn't keep a low profile.

Chu Qianchen's words might appease others, but not Amber, who served her personally. Amber went to the manor with her last year, and she knew very well whether she had read medical books or not.

What's more, medical skills cannot be learned by just reading two books. This is just what we say to the outside world.

Chu Qianchen stopped what he was doing and looked up at Amber who was a few steps away.

When she was in the Chu family in her previous life, she only trusted Liuli among the two maids, Amber and Liuli, and was quite distant from Amber. However, during her last time in the Chu family, it was Amber who took care of her.

At that time, the Chu family was in chaos. Ever since Mu Ge'er passed away, his stepmother Shen had been bedridden, her health was sometimes better and sometimes worse, and the household affairs of the mansion were handed over to Chu Qianhuang.

And she was in a difficult situation in the Chu family.

Her clothing, food, and daily expenses were all cut back. She was frozen to death in the severe cold weather, and had a high fever that wouldn't go away. It was only Amber who sought help from her stepmother who was seriously ill...

It was her stepmother who called a doctor and punished the servants.

Sometimes, she would think that if her stepmother had not died of old age and could not survive the winter, she might not have been kicked out of the marquis's mansion.

However, now that Mu Ge'er is alive, his stepmother should not have passed away so early.

Amber did not avoid Chu Qianchen's gaze and said with a smile: "The bookstore I often go to also sells medical books. Miss likes to read medical books. I will go and take a look for you tomorrow."

Whatever the girl says is what it is!

The young lady herself is in a confused state and may not be able to see it, but her personal maid can see it clearly. The young lady is just too obedient. She is obviously better-looking than anyone else, and Aunt Jiang, who gave birth to the eldest son out of wedlock, is also quite favored. But in this mansion, everyone can bully the young lady.

Aunt Jiang said that she felt sorry for the girl, but she had never done anything for the girl. Instead, whenever something happened, she would push the girl out to take the lead.

No matter where the girl learned her medical skills, it is certainly a good thing that she knows how to keep them secret now.

Chu Qianchen curled the corners of his lips, thinking that Amber was thoughtful. Well, it would be a good idea to put a few medical books on the bookshelf to make it look good.

"Bring me some more gauze." Chu Qianchen ordered, and Amber hurried to do it.

Chu Qianchen carefully sorted the purchased medicinal herbs one by one, took a few of them, cut them into pieces with scissors, put them into the mortar, and then used the pestle to pound the broken herbs carefully and slowly.

Her movements were neither fast nor slow, skillful and steady, her expression focused. The soft golden light from the window fell on her body, as if she had been coated with a layer of light gold powder. She was as beautiful as a flower, making people unable to take their eyes away.

Amber, who came in through the curtain, happened to see this scene and stared at Chu Qianchen in a daze for a while.

Amber quickly came to her senses and walked quickly to Chu Qianchen with gauze in hand.

The room was filled with a faint herbal scent.

Amber put the gauze on the Eight Immortals Table, and then heard Chu Qianchen ordering without even looking up: "Bring another small bowl, and then find some thin bamboo strips or small wooden sticks, and you will make something for me later..."

Amber agreed to everything and hurried downstairs to prepare.

It took Chu Qianchen a full hour to pound the herbs in the mortar into a paste. At the same time, Amber was not idle either. She made a simple bamboo rack according to Chu Qianchen's instructions.

Chu Qianchen put down the pestle, wrapped the water in the mortar with gauze, and placed it on the bamboo rack. The transparent light green medicine juice slowly dripped through the layers of gauze into the small bowl under the bamboo rack.
