The Daily Life of a Down-on-Hard-Life Medicine Girl Supporting Her Family

Chapter 316

"I have all the contracts for Granny Yu's family." Madam Xu looked at her coldly and said, "Your twin grandchildren are quite adorable. What if you sold them to the opera troupe..."

"Grandma, this old servant will speak, this old servant will speak..."

When Granny Yu heard that Madam Xu was going to sell her grandchildren to the pear orchard, she was so frightened that she immediately knelt down and begged for mercy.

The children in the Peking Opera world are all for the rich and powerful to play with.

She dared not gamble and quickly begged for mercy.

"Tell me, who told you to change the dressing?"

"It is Madam Huang the Second."

Madam Huang the Second?

Huang's second sister-in-law, who was also Huang's best friend since childhood and the closest person to her in her own family besides her parents, unexpectedly switched her medicine and harmed her.

What's happening here?
"Madam Huang the Second and Madam Huang the Third were good sisters. They met the Third Master together back then, and Madam Huang the Second had feelings for him..."

Is this what we should be listening to?
Chunnuan and the others looked at their third uncle.

"What nonsense?"

Master Xiao also felt very ashamed.

At his age, he still manages to cause trouble like this.

"This old servant is not lying. This old servant was also a maidservant by Madam Huang's side back then, and later..."

The Xiao family was shocked when they heard this!
Who would have thought that among the servants the Xiao family bought after returning to the capital, there would be spies planted by Madam Huang.

Huang's illness was largely caused by his second wife.

Granny Yu changed her dressings not just once, but continuously!
Therefore, the medicines prescribed in spring are not very effective.

Chunnuan was furious after hearing this.

She always felt something was wrong.

Huang's illness was recurrent, sometimes better and sometimes worse. He had his self-diagnosed prescriptions checked repeatedly, but they just couldn't achieve the desired therapeutic effect.

She thought it was because Huang was too obsessed, but little did she know that someone had taken advantage of her.

"What benefits did Madam Huang give you?"

"She promised this old servant that she would let this old servant's youngest daughter become the Sixth Young Master's concubine."

How abominable!

Things that betray the Lord.

Of course, we can't just accept whatever the old woman says.

"I'll take Granny Yu to the Huang family."

No matter how much Huang acted up, Master Xiao never considered divorcing his wife.

He and the Huang family, who were childhood sweethearts, had a deep emotional foundation.

When the Xiao family fell on hard times, Huang took her young children and went to Sichuan with her mother and elder sister-in-law.

She was a pampered young lady from a scholarly family; she had never suffered such injustice and hardship.

After seven years of perseverance, the Xiao family finally returned to the capital for a happy reunion.

If Ms. Huang is ill, she should be treated. We cannot do anything inhumane because of her illness.

The Xiao family has never been those heartless people.

I never expected Madam Huang to be so despicable.

What's most unexpected is that Madam Huang the Second was the person Huang trusted most.

Because they were once close friends and later became her sister-in-law, Huang was closest to her.

But who could have imagined that she was plotting against Huang behind his back?

"Nuan Nuan, what might happen with these medications?"

“These medicines are incompatible with the ones I prescribed. At best, they will make my aunt increasingly insane; at worst, they will cause her to be poisoned and paralyzed.”

Madam Huang was truly ruthless. She didn't want Third Aunt's life, but she wanted her to get sick, so sick that she was unconscious and the Xiao family hated her.

"No wonder!" Madam Xu was also quite angry: "Your third aunt's illness is sometimes good and sometimes bad. When she's good, it's like she's not sick at all, but when it gets bad, it's like she's going crazy. It's really a nightmare." "It's fortunate that she met our Xiao family and your third uncle who values ​​loyalty and righteousness. If it were any other family, she would have been dead long ago."

I can't tolerate such a person causing trouble, and I don't want a divorce. Her reputation is bad, so letting her "die of illness" is the best outcome.

The Xiao family did not do that; instead, they sent her to the village to recuperate and even arranged for someone to take care of her.

Who would have thought that there was a traitor among the servants!

Fortunately, when Chunnuan came to the village to play, she didn't forget to take her third aunt for a follow-up check-up, and that's when she discovered that something was wrong.

"Third brother, how do you plan to handle this?"

"Master Xiao asked."

"I need to go find my parents-in-law."

Such an outcome would leave Madam Huang with no face to remain in the Huang household.

“Since she is so heartless, don’t blame me for being ruthless and causing my wife to become so seriously ill.”

Master Xiao was furious.

"take me."

What no one noticed was that Madam Huang had actually woken up, and no one knew when she woke up or how much she had heard.

However, she insisted on being taken to the Huang family.

"Sister-in-law, you're not feeling well..."

Madam Xu felt sorry for her and originally thought that sending her to the estate to be cared for would make her better and better. She never expected that she would become so thin and frail.

All of this was done by her second sister-in-law from her maternal family, and there was an even bigger secret involved.

"Sister-in-law, second sister-in-law, and all of you, I'm sorry for causing you trouble."

Mr. Huang felt very ashamed.

“Sometimes when I’m more lucid, I think about what I’ve done. I’m so confused that I don’t even know how I’ve hurt you. I hope you can forgive me.”

Upon hearing this, Madam Xu and Madam Xu exchanged a glance.

It seems that Ms. Huang is unaware of the extent of the harm she has caused to her two children.

Especially Chun Shu, that child both loved and feared her.

"Eldest sister-in-law, has Shu'er gotten married? Which family did she marry into? Is she doing well?"

Huang's mind cleared up a bit, and suddenly she thought of Chun Shu.

"Shu'er is doing very well."

Mr. Xu never doubted his own judgment.

Chun Shu is indeed living a good life in her husband's family. Although her husband does not yet have great talent or official rank, the couple is loving and he is very diligent. With Chun Ning's introduction, he has also entered Hanwen Academy and is sure to pass the imperial examination next year.

"As long as she's doing well, that's good. I'm a useless mother; I'm just holding her back."

Hearing this, Madam Xu sighed deeply. If Chun Shu heard these words, all the pent-up emotions in her heart would surely be released.

Therefore, Huang was not incapable of love, but rather she was powerless to resist the influence of drugs, which made her say one thing and mean another.

She unintentionally hurt Chun Shu; if she were clear-headed, she would be heartbroken.

"I'm going to the Huang family. I want to ask my second sister-in-law myself, and I want to hear her say why!"

"Why are you doing this?"

Master Xiao sighed, "You know perfectly well that she..."

“I want her to see that even if I get sick, grow old, or become ugly, you haven’t abandoned me, and you are still my Xiao Sanlang.”

Huang said, "Not only will I go, I will also give her a gift."

When Chunnuan learned that the gift Huang had given to her second brother was two beautiful women, she was speechless.

You really can't blame my third aunt. If you don't let me live a good life, I'll make sure you don't.

Master Huang had always been fond of beautiful women, and he had one wife and two concubines. Now, his third aunt had sent him two more beautiful women, which was exactly what he wanted.

However, Madam Huang dared not utter a word, because what she had done to her sister-in-law had already been exposed. You harmed others, and they were just returning the favor. What could you do about it?
