Chapter 338 Delivering Medicine
Chapter 338 Delivering Medicine
"It's a pity that although the big cat is very fierce and fought with the cat in the warehouse until its hair was flying everywhere, it didn't beat the kitten. Well, it seems that big cats don't beat kittens. The two cats in the warehouse went there before, and they didn't beat Aunt Lian's kitten. It's really..."
"Wait a minute, let me sort it out." Song Ying interrupted her, "Does the mansion have other cats?"
Chunfang nodded: "Yes, they are kept in the warehouse. There is a tabby cat and a fat orange cat. They are used to prevent mice from biting the things in the warehouse. They are very good at catching mice!"
"Those two cats have been to Aunt Lian's yard. Were they brought there by Miss Seven?" Song Ying asked again.
Chunfang nodded again, "Those two cats are very fierce and don't like to get close to outsiders. She asked a maid in the storeroom to bring them over."
"Did she also bring the current big cat to the warehouse to fight with the cats in the warehouse?"
"Yes, otherwise, even if the people in the warehouse had a hundred guts, they wouldn't dare to let the cats in the warehouse get close to her cats."
Song Ying took a deep breath. Shen Wanyi would not stop until she killed Aunt Lian's cat. How could she be so vicious at such a young age? She couldn't do anything to Aunt Lian, so she killed her cat.
"She usually looks so gentle, how could she be like this..."
Chunfang looked around and saw that no one was around, so she quietly finished her unspoken words, "Vicious, right? You just don't have much contact with her. Anyone who has served her knows how bad her temper really is and how difficult she is to serve."
After a pause, Chunfang reminded again, "Oh, by the way, if you see her recently, remember to avoid her. She must be angry with you."
Song Ying: ???
"I heard that she complained privately that you didn't treat her cat well enough, but she stayed in Aunt Lian's yard for several days and nights. Later, she ran over every day to help feed the cat medicine. She was trying to curry favor with Aunt Lian."
Song Ying was speechless. "I was guarding at Aunt Lian's place. It was Aunt Lian's request. She didn't let us go to her courtyard. How can you blame me for this?
But, I asked her to leave the cat with us and I would watch over it at night, but she insisted on taking it back. Also, Aunt Lian’s cat was found early and treated on the first day of illness, while her cat was found after it had been sick for several days, so the severity of the disease is different.”
As she spoke, she became angry. It would have been fine if she was just blaming her, but the key point was that Shen Wanyi was also blaming the master. After all, the master was the one who actually treated the cat.
The master is a doctor employed by the mansion. He doesn't care about the affairs of his legitimate master, Miss Seven, but he is dedicated to the affairs of Madam Lian. Isn't this damaging the master's reputation?
"That's right, but she is the master, and if she insists on blaming you, there is nothing you can do about it. You'd better stay away from her for now." Chunfang reminded again.
This didn't require special attention. When she went out in the morning, Shen Wanyi hadn't gotten up yet. When she came back in the evening, Shen Wanyi was already having dinner. The times were completely different.
"Thank you, Sister Chunfang." Song Ying thanked her and walked away with the lunch box in a depressed mood.
After dinner, Doctor Lin answered her questions about the prescriptions she had written during the day as usual. Suddenly, she stood up and said with some annoyance, "I was so busy today that I forgot that Aunt Lian's cat should be given a new medicine."
Having said that, he hurried to get the medicine.
Song Ying looked outside. It was almost midnight, and there was no moon tonight, so it was pitch black outside.
"Master, I'll go and take you there. I can run fast."
The backyard of the Shen Mansion was still very safe at night. Doctor Lin was not worried that she would meet bad people. He agreed and advised: "Don't rush, walk slowly, and walk more steadily in the dark to avoid falling."
"Okay, I'll walk slowly." Song Ying picked up the medicine and walked towards Aunt Lian's yard holding a lantern.
When she reached the door and was about to knock, she suddenly heard a very tired man's voice from inside, "Xiao Lian, she is just a child and doesn't understand anything. Why are you arguing with her?"
Song Ying was shocked. How could there be a man in the inner courtyard of Shen Mansion at night? !
Song Ying immediately thought of several male masters of the Shen Mansion. They might appear in the inner courtyard at night. She recalled the voice and it should be Shen Zhuangyuan.
As her thoughts raced, she heard Aunt Lian sneer, "Does viciousness have age limits? She brings the big cat here time and again. What is she up to? Do you think I don't know?"
After this, there was a moment of silence. After a long while, Shen Zhuangyuan said helplessly: "You are the elder. You can teach her when she is wrong, but you can't beat her in front of outsiders. She is getting older and she also needs to save face..."
Song Ying blinked outside the courtyard, thinking of what Xiaolu said. At the reunion dinner of the Shen Mansion on New Year's Eve, Mr. Shen beat the fifth lady Shen Wanting, saying that she was disrespectful to her elders. Although he was forced by Aunt Lian, he also acknowledged that Aunt Lian was the elder of the younger generations of the Shen Mansion.
She is the aunt of Shen Zhuangyuan, and is considered an elder to the younger generations, but she cannot be considered a proper elder, let alone teach the younger generations. Could it be that there is something else hidden about Aunt Lian's identity?
The Third Master is Aunt Lian’s son, but just for the sake of his status as a legitimate son, he is registered under the name of Princess Shun’an?
But the third master was not very good at studying, nor did he hold a high position in the government. He was not so outstanding that Lady Shun'an had to hold her nose and acknowledge her illegitimate son as her legitimate son.
Besides, he is a man, and as long as he has ability, his family will train him equally regardless of whether he is a legitimate son or a illegitimate son. And he is not a girl who needs the title of a legitimate son so that she can marry into a wealthy family.
And if that was really the case, it should be Aunt Lian who accompanied her carefully at all times, instead of Princess Shun'an tolerating Aunt Lian again and again.
Could it be that Aunt Lian was the original wife of Mr. Shen, the top scholar in high school, and that Mr. Shen became Chen Shimei in the opera after he became the top scholar in high school?
But I haven’t heard that Shen Zhuangyuan had been married before.
Shen Zhuangyuan is the glory of Qinghuali, and even the entire Qingshui County and Shunqing Prefecture. The older generation talks about his deeds with relish, and even the younger generation like Song Ying grew up listening to his stories.
If he had ever remarried, given the temperament of the elders in the village, they would definitely say something in private. It is impossible that there would be no rumors at all. Could it be that because Shen Zhuangyuan's family broke with their Rongshu Village at that time, he did not tell anyone about his marriage?
Song Ying's mind was a mess when he heard Aunt Lian sneer, "I was wondering why you came here to support your granddaughter today. It turns out it's because I showed up in front of outsiders and you were afraid that they would know about my existence and see what kind of person you are.
Humph, you hypocritical hypocrite, you have read so many sage books but ended up with nothing..."
Aunt Lian started cursing loudly. Song Ying, who was listening outside, retracted her hand that was about to knock on the door. If she went in at this time, it would be too embarrassing for Shen Zhuangyuan.
After thinking for a while, Song Ying picked up the lamp and prepared to turn around and leave, and come back later, but she heard Shen Zhuangyuan say in a very tired and helpless voice: "Xiao Lian, why can't you live a good life?"
