Mrs. Li couldn't help but sneer in her heart. In this family, except for Master Li who was a decent man, the rest were just bad people. No wonder when Mrs. Li wanted to take the child to raise, Master Li refused in every possible way. Otherwise, how could a good child be raised
Mr. Li Sanye didn't learn any other good things. He looked honest on the outside, but no one expected that he was so terrible on the inside. He was exactly like his cunning and mean mother. He didn't have any humanity at all and was terribly selfish.
After she finished laughing, she looked at the old woman quietly for a moment and nodded naturally: "Of course, you are experienced and it was the Third Master who sent you here, so I feel more at ease if you go."
She glanced at Wei Yuyou behind her with worry, her brows furrowed, "But you better hurry up. If you delay, who knows what will happen."
The maid hurriedly said yes, and urged the eldest lady's maid to follow, while she herself took the lead and walked in front.
The maid looked back at Mrs. Li, fiddling with her clothes nervously. Seeing that Mrs. Li nodded at her imperceptibly with determination and encouragement in her eyes, she mustered up the courage to nod and hurried forward to chase after the maid.
Time was urgent and there was no time to worry about anything else. The maid nodded to her, hurriedly ordered a small oil cart with a green curtain, and drove out quickly.
As soon as she left the house, the maid cautiously lifted the curtain, revealing a pair of eyes to look outside. Seeing that even the side door was surrounded by people from the Wei family, she felt a little nervous. She couldn't help but sigh and shook her head, "Why can't the Dingbei Marquisate get rid of it? A daughter who is married off is like water spilled... How can a woman's family always interfere in the affairs of her husband's family?"
She was panicking. When she came out, Wei Yuyou looked so weak and almost dying. She didn't know what kind of disease he had. If it really couldn't be cured... she didn't know if they would be implicated when the Wei family came to settle the score.
The little girl also leaned over to take a look, and couldn't help but exclaimed: "So many people came? I heard that they almost broke in yesterday... Third Master is always hiding outside, I'm afraid it's not a good idea..."
In order to avoid the Wei family, Li San didn't even enter the house these days and simply hid outside.
The maid frowned and was about to speak when she heard a quarrel outside. She couldn't help but frown - the people who came from the Wei family were all strong maids and servants, and she didn't want to make a big deal out of it and attract other people's attention.
Just as she was thinking this, the carriage suddenly stopped. She couldn't help but get angry: "What's going on? I said I was in a hurry to go out to do my job, why did you stop?!"
The driver outside also complained: "Mother Qi, we can't move. There's a traffic jam ahead, and the Wei family is following us."
Mother Qi couldn't help but feel annoyed. She couldn't help but fan herself with her hands in such a cold day. She said impatiently, "Then turn around and leave! Hurry up!"
The driver agreed, and the little girl suddenly called out to her, "Mother Qi!"
Mother Qi turned around and looked at her: "What's wrong?"
"There must be many people from the Wei family on the street over at the main gate. It's not a good idea to block them like this. How about this? I'll get out of the car and hold them back. You can take this opportunity to get out first. The Third Madam's illness is serious. If we delay, I'm afraid we'll all be in trouble."
Mother Qi was a little upset. She knew that the Wei family was gathered outside the house. When she heard the little girl say that, her eyebrows twitched. She didn't say anything, but just asked, "How are you going to get rid of them?"
The little girl tilted her head and smiled slyly: "Anyway, I'm just a little girl, so I came out and yelled that my brother was sick, just to see if they were in a mess!"
Mother Qi's eyes lit up. It's true. This might actually be a good idea. Apart from Wei Yuyou, the person the Wei family cares about most is the young master who is still staying in the mansion. If they say that the young master is sick, the Wei family will be scared. Once they get into a fuss, they will naturally have no time to stop her. Otherwise, if she goes outside to ask a doctor, she might really be stopped and questioned, which is quite annoying.
She thought about it, then agreed, and then reminded him, "Go find the maids at the gatehouse to accompany you. Be careful. When we get back, I'll tell the eldest lady and ask for a reward for you."
The little girl answered cleverly, slipped out of the carriage, and ran outside in a hurry.
Mother Qi sat in the carriage for a while and heard the driver outside say, "Oh, everyone has run away! Mother Qi, should we leave or not?"
Mother Qi's frown relaxed. She glanced through the curtain and saw that everyone was indeed running towards the main entrance. She thought that they were probably running to discuss and report the news, so she hurriedly said, "Let's go! Let's go! To the clinic!"
The little girl on the other end managed to call the maid and said hurriedly, "It's not good, it's not good! Hurry up, hurry up, go outside and find a doctor, the third wife is dying!"
The old women were shocked. They were guarding the side door, which was not an easy job. They knew nothing about what was going on inside. They only knew to guard the door outside. When they heard the little girl shouting, they all stood up hurriedly, looking at each other, without reacting at all to what the little girl was saying.
The little girl was so anxious that her voice trembled. She said in one breath: "You, quickly find more people to go and get a doctor. The third wife is dying. She can only exhale but not breathe in..."
The maids looked at each other, their steps were hesitant, and they looked at the little girl and asked hesitantly: "Isn't there a strict order in our mansion that no one is allowed to go in or out these days? Except for those who are on duty, no one is allowed to go out..."
This was an order given by Li San, which was intended to prevent anyone from coming out and talking nonsense, and also to prevent the Wei family from entering.
The little girl sobbed, "Madame Qi has already gone to the clinic. You saw it. She felt something was wrong in the car, so she sent me back to ask you to go to the shop and ask them to get the funeral supplies back and prepare them."
After such a short while, they even said that they were going to prepare funeral supplies? Could it be that the Third Wife was really going to die
But although they heard that the Third Madam was ill, the Third Master was not at home! How could she suddenly die? The maids thought about Aunt Qi who had just hurriedly left in a carriage, and they didn't know what to do for a moment, and whether they should obey: "You girl, please be clear, which courtyard are you from? The Third Madam is dying, and since you have gone to find a doctor, why are you asking for coffin supplies? Why didn't the housekeeper's wife come out?"
The little girl stamped her feet and said, "It's no use talking to you. He's really seriously ill. The lady inside has told me to quickly get the funeral supplies and prepare them for the bath..." (To be continued)
