Doctor Mo hesitated for a moment, then immediately stroked his beard and said, "It's not a big deal, he just hit his head. I'd better prescribe some calming medicine for him." If he said it was nothing, the wife of the marquis would definitely think that his medical skills were not good. He had been visiting these officials' families for many years, so he naturally knew what to do.
Miao was relieved and urged, "Then doctor, please prescribe the medicine quickly. Is there anything else I should pay attention to?"
Doctor Mo smiled and said, "Second Master, you should take good care to rest during this period and don't knock your head again. After you have rested for ten days, I will come back to treat you."
When Master Bao heard that he had to take medicine, he wanted to chase the old man away. He didn't think there was anything wrong at first, but after the old man's interference, he had to take bitter medicine for a few days.
Doctor Mo wrote out a prescription, and Miao immediately ordered her servants to get the medicine and boil it. She caught Master Bao and forced him to drink the last drop of the medicine before letting him go.
Luo Lingxiu looked at Master Bao's receding figure, twisting the handkerchief unconsciously in her hand, feeling pity in her heart. How did she and Bao Ge'er come to this point? Unless she spoke first, Bao Ge'er never took the initiative to talk to her again... Thinking of the mahogany shelf in front of Mingyu's desk, Luo Lingxiu clenched her teeth. The men of the Sima family were indeed heartless and cold-hearted!
Miao had other ideas, and looked at Luo Lingxiu and said, "This won't work."
Luo Lingxiu was thinking about something, and was startled. She came to her senses and asked anxiously, "Aunt, what's wrong?"
"We need to send someone there." Miao frowned and said, "We can't be ignorant of everything. If we are kept in the dark, we will be passive."
Luo Lingxiu then realized that Miao was talking about Yiqing Courtyard, and quickly agreed, "We have to arrange someone. Mingyu is getting older and has a lot of thoughts. We need someone to look after her."
Miao glanced at Luo Lingxiu and said slowly, "I see you have a lot on your mind. I clearly told you before that you would tell me first after you found out what happened last night. You killed everyone without saying anything. Is there something hidden?"
Luo Lingxiu's face flushed red, she held her handkerchief and said with tears in her eyes, "Aunt, don't you know what kind of person Lingxiu is?" She knelt on the ground and swore that she had nothing to do with this matter.
Miao thought she was smart and nothing could be hidden from her, so she firmly believed that there was something fishy going on. However, Luo Lingxiu was her niece, so even if she made some small moves, as long as they did not involve any issues of principle, she could just let it go after giving her a warning.
Compared to Mingyu, she naturally thought that Luo Lingxiu was her own person, and the bond of blood was thicker than water and could not be broken at will.
"That's enough!" Seeing that she had been scolded enough, Miao stopped and waved her hand, saying, "You have been too unbecoming recently! Not only did you reach into my second brother's room, but you also quarreled with Sister Lian. Is that something that our grandmother would do? Be careful in the future. If your reputation is ruined, you will never be able to hold your head up high. Don't do anything that will embarrass the Marquis's Mansion and me! In this family, whoever ruins the reputation of the Marquis's Mansion will be punished!"
Luo Lingxiu was frightened by Miao's harsh words, but when she saw Miao just lifted it high and lowered it gently, she gradually put her mind at ease, calmed down, and said respectfully, "Yes, daughter-in-law will remember Madam's instructions."
Miao nodded with satisfaction, took Luo Lingxiu back to her own courtyard, and immediately asked all the servants in the room to leave, leaving only Nanny Tan.
Seeing this, Nanny Tan knew that the Madam obviously had something to say, so she stood respectfully aside and couldn't help feeling a little proud, after all, she was the Madam's number one confidant.
"Madame Tan, you have been with me since I was a child. You are now an elder in the mansion. You are well-known wherever you go. You have more face than ordinary people." Miao's words praised Madame Tan very much. However, Madame Tan was a little dumbfounded. She had served the Madam for so many years, so she naturally knew what kind of person the Madam was. If she started to praise you from the beginning, no good would happen next.
As expected, the wife continued, "Madame Zou just left the Yiqing Courtyard, leaving only the Second Madam and the maid named Lixiang. I think they are really not good enough, and there is no one to do anything. From now on, you should follow the Second Madam and teach her the daily rules. After all, the Second Madam is the legitimate mistress of our Marquis' Mansion. It won't be a disgrace to your status if you serve her."
Nanny Tan's smile froze on her face. She couldn't smile anymore. Cold sweat broke out on her forehead. Her words were no longer as eloquent as before. "This... This, Madam, do you think I didn't serve you well enough?"
Miao waved her hands, "Of course not. I asked you to serve the Second Madam because I saw that you are capable and know when to advance and when to retreat. She is young and ignorant, so I need you to give her some guidance."
Nanny Tan was shocked. She must be a fool to be willing to go to the deserted Yiqing Courtyard. It was so good to be with the Madam. Those who wanted to curry favor with the Madam had to "present" her with good things from time to time, hoping that she could say a few good words to the Madam and arrange a good job for them.
The Anxi Marquis's Mansion was the most powerful in Tianshui, and there were many noble ladies who wanted to curry favor with Miao. She was Miao's nanny, and the benefits given to her by the noble ladies who visited her every year were countless. She was respected wherever she went, and even in front of the master of the Second Master's generation, she was half an elder.
The Madam arranged for her to be sent to Yiqing Courtyard. To put it nicely, it was to serve the master. To put it bluntly, wasn't it the same as exile? !
Immediately, Nanny Tan burst into tears, "Madam, I am loyal to you and cannot leave you!" If anyone was to go, it should be Nanny Wei. Madam didn't seem to like her much on weekdays, and the work she did was to offend people. She was a perfect match for the unpopular Yiqing Courtyard.
What Miao was most impatient about was crying and making a fuss. Just Aunt Yu's behavior was enough to annoy her. Seeing Aunt Tan also doing the same thing, she immediately shouted, "Shut up! I asked you to serve the Second Madam. Are you wronged?"
Even if Nanny Tan had a hundred and twenty guts, she would not dare to speak her mind. It was obvious that she was wronged! "This... I am not familiar with the Second Madam, and I don't know if my service will suit Second Madam's wishes..." Nanny Tan said hesitantly, clearly not wanting to go.
Miao sighed in disappointment. Although Madam Wei's speech was not as pleasing as Madam Tan's, she was capable and could understand everything at a glance. She did things flawlessly without any mistakes. Although Madam Tan was good at talking, she was incompetent at everything. Look at the grand "catching an adulterer" operation she carried out some time ago, but ended up catching an annoying concubine Yu, who was doing her best to make things difficult for her all day long!
He is more likely to cause trouble than to accomplish anything!
Therefore, Miao felt that it would be more appropriate to send Nanny Tan over. On the one hand, Nanny Tan was a gossip and could get the news, and on the other hand, Nanny Wei was capable, so she wanted to keep Nanny Wei to do the work.
"I'm not just asking you to serve Second Madam." Miao decided to make it clear. After all, Nanny Tan had served her since she was little, and they had a special bond. She didn't want to be as ruthless as she scolded Mingyu in front of Luo Lingxiu. "Second Madam is getting older. There's only one maid in the courtyard. When there's a lot of things to do, I may not be able to pay attention to Yiqing Courtyard every day. There may be things that I can't take good care of. When you go, take good care of her. You're still my family. Come back every few days. We can't be too far away from each other."
Miao's words were meaningful, and Nanny Tan finally understood what her master meant. Although she was a spy, she was still exiled to a remote area. But judging from Miao's words, she could still come back here. Although she was reluctant, she still kowtowed respectfully to show that she would obey the arrangements of her superiors.
Thinking about going to the deserted Second Madam's place in the future, where her master had no money to reward her, and she had no chance to ask for rewards from the ladies and young ladies, and she was completely cut off from the personnel changes in the mansion, it seemed as if the white silver in front of Nanny Tan had grown wings and flew away, making her feel as if someone was cutting it with a knife.
However, the Madam's orders were always final. Since she was talked to this point, Madam Tan had no choice but to accept her fate. If she dared to disobey, the Madam would definitely demote her to a servant nanny doing heavy and dirty work. She didn't want a disobedient servant. By then, not only would she lose money, but she would even lose her face. After all, she was serving the Second Madam, and she was also serving the master. For the Madam's sake, the Second Madam would be courteous to her.
Nanny Tan and Nanny Wei were both dowries brought by Miao. Her family bought a house outside the mansion and lived there. Nanny Tan served the mistress during the day and returned to her own home at night. Occasionally, she slept in Miao's yard at night, so Miao didn't have many things for Nanny Tan.
After coming out of Miao's main room, Nanny Tan's eyes turned dark and she felt that her future was bleak. When she met the maids standing in the yard, they all came forward to greet her respectfully and tried to please her with fawning smiles. Nanny Tan felt bitter when she saw this. After a while, everyone knew that she had been "exiled" to Yiqing Courtyard. Who would still come to fawn on her
Seeing Aunt Wei standing there quietly, Aunt Tan couldn't help but glared at Aunt Wei with hatred. Why did she get exiled instead of Old Wei? They were all the same. She thought the lady liked her more, but she didn't expect that it was Old Wei who stayed behind!
Nanny Tan stood in front of Mingyu carrying a simple luggage, straightened her back, slightly raised her chin, and explained the purpose of her visit in a respectful tone. It was the madam who sympathized with the fact that there was no capable person to serve the Second Mistress, so she was asked to serve her.
Mingyu's eyes widened. She wanted to say that she was just a little girl and didn't need two people to serve her. However, everyone was here. If she sent them back to embarrass the lady, Miao would definitely turn into a little monster and kill her, an ordinary person.
Lixiang turned to look at Mingyu, her eyes full of sadness. Sure enough, the good days of the two of them dominating the same courtyard were coming to an end! Mingyu came to her senses after being looked at by Lixiang. The little girl grinned, revealing eight neat and white teeth. Her smile was perfect, absolutely kind and amiable, and also cute and lovable. "I'll trouble you from now on, Madam!"
