Kapitel 7: Treating Her Face
Redakteur: Dragon Boat Translation
"Of course, he is willing. President is the matchmaker." Duan Changyu was joyful when he talked about this matter. He was even happier like he was the one who got married."Young Marshal, I've already asked around. The four daughters of the Chu family are all talented and beautiful. The youngest has just turned sixteen, and the oldest is only eighteen. They are all of the age of marriage."
"In terms of appearance, figure, talent, and birth, whether from family background or upbringing, they're all..."
"You've asked for details, so you are interested in all of them?" Mo Lingyuan interrupted him coldly.
Duan Changyu was so frightened that he almost bit his tongue, "Young Marshal, I didn't mean that. I swear that I have no improper thoughts towards the young ladies of the Chu family."
"It doesn't matter if you do." Mo Lingyuan rubbed his fingers, which still had the slippery feeling of pinching that woman's buttocks, "I'll go and propose to you. Chu family will surely agree."
The image of the girl lying in his arms and breathing heavily suddenly flashed across his mind. Her warm and soft body rubbed against him restlessly through her thin clothes.
That soft moan was like an electric current coursing through his scalp.
Her movements were clean and quick.
Unfortunately, her long hair covered half of her face. He could not see what she looked like in the dark.
...
Not until the evening after Chu Qingze heard that Chu Yunyao had fallen ill from not eating or drinking did he visit her.
When Chu Yunyao saw Chu Qingze enter, she weakly propped herself up, pretending to be eager to get up and welcome him.
"Just lie down." Chu Qingze placed his hands behind his back. He glanced at Chu Yunyao and then looked away, "What happened today was just a misunderstanding. Forget it. The doctor will come over later to take your pulse and prescribe you some medicine."
"Three days later will be your wedding day. You have to get well soon."
After saying that, Chu Qingze turned around and left immediately.
He ended up being here solely to caution her against airing her dirty laundry in public, fearing that she could not get married due to her illness.
Chu Yunyao did not care about his indifference. In any case, Chu Yunyao's ultimate goal in pretending to be sick was to get the medicinal herbs to treat the pus on her face.
The fetus toxin in her body could be slowly expelled, but the most effective way to treat the festering on her face was to apply medicine on her face and drink the medicine.
In less than a week, the festering on her face would scab, peel off, and slowly recover.
Those herbs should have antiseptic and antiviral curative effects. It was not difficult for the doctor to prescribe some medicine for her.
Moreover, Chu Qingze would double his efforts to protect her after what had happened today. At least, there would be no more danger before she got married.
Uncle Liang carried the food and brought the doctor to check Chu Yunyao's pulse. There were indeed a few ingredients in the medicine that she wanted.
When Uncle Liang saw her lying on the bed sickly, he said, "Fifth Miss, I asked my wife to make these dishes personally. You can eat them without worry. What a pitiful child."
Chu Yunyao looked at the sweet potatoes in the rice. She knew Uncle Liang feared it would happen again, so he secretly gave her his food. She was very touched.
"Thank you, Uncle Liang." Chu Yunyao took the bowl and chopsticks, looked at Uncle Liang with big black eyes, and asked timidly, "Are father and sister still angry with me?"
"No, Miss, don't overthink. That cat scratched a child's eyes a few months ago and often stole food from the kitchen. Last night, it knocked over the black chicken soup prepared for Fourth Miss. Fourth Miss even quarreled with Eldest Miss today, which affected Old Master's mood. That's why Old Master came to see you late."
"It was also the first time that you had seen that cat. Without any grudges, how could you poison it to death? Even a servant like me would know the truth. Old Master must know it too." Uncle Liang did not dare to say anything bad about Chu Qingze, so he tactfully exculpated her.
Chu Yunyao felt guilty. The first time she saw that cat, she knew it was not a gentle animal. She knew that it was a pet that the noble ladies liked to raise.
She had deliberately allowed the cat to eat the dead rats.
She was the one who drank the black chicken soup in the kitchen. As for how the cat got involved, it was probably because the chef deliberately avoided taking responsibility out of fear of her master.
"Uncle Liang." Chu Yunyao pretended innocent and asked, "Sister said I have to take her place to marry a murderous maniac. Is that person very scary? How many people did he kill?"
