Chapter 1627: Earning Small Money Quietly
"My cousin was beaten?"
When the news reached the west wing, Wen Shiqing could no longer sit still and stood up to walk out.
Fortunately, the maid beside her pulled her back in time.
"Miss, you can't go out at this time! The master told you to stay in the house and recuperate, and not to go out and walk around!"
Wen Shiqing was pulled back and sat down dejectedly, with crystal tears instantly filling her eyes.
"Yes, this is not my home. Even if my aunt and cousin love me, I am still just an outsider..."
She sat under the lamp, muttering to herself and feeling sorry for herself.
The maid had long been accustomed to it, so she could only sigh beside her. When she had finished sighing, she would persuade her, "Miss, please be patient. After a few days, we will find a way to go see the young master."
"I just feel sorry for my cousin. That woman doesn't know how to be kind to others. My cousin is injured and helpless now..."
Wen Shiqing said some extremely green tea words again and sighed deeply.
Liu Qihan lay on the couch for two full days before he could barely sit up with the help of his servants. But he still couldn't lie down for fear of touching the wound, so he could only lie on the couch uncomfortably.
Liu's mother also collapsed from exhaustion on the second day. She was worried about her son and lay in her room unable to get up. Shi Li went to see him and was kicked out without saying much. She was told to go back and take good care of Liu Qihan.
Shi Li agreed verbally, and then went to do what she was supposed to do. Naturally, Liu Qihan had servants to serve him.
After noon, Shi Li was walking in the garden out of boredom. A maid came to tell her that after receiving her letter, Doctor Xu was actually persuaded to come here and had already arrived at the inn.
Shi Li's eyes lit up, and after a moment's thought, he ordered, "Send someone to tell the shopkeeper to introduce Doctor Xu to Yu Mo's mother, and bring fifty taels of silver as a gift to Yu Mo, telling him it's a thank you gift."
In this way, if Yu Mo's mother needs medicine, she will not be in trouble. Shi Li has considered everything carefully.
The maid agreed, and was afraid that others might not be able to do the job well, so she went there herself and brought Doctor Xu to the shop, but she only saw the shopkeeper, not Yu Mo.
After asking, I found out that his mother was really ill, so he simply took a few days off.
The maid then took Doctor Xu to find Yu Mo's home.
As expected, Yu Mo was in the room taking care of his sick mother. When he saw the maid beside Shi Li, he was slightly surprised.
"This is Doctor Xu from Yangzhou City. Why not let him take a look?" In front of Yu Mo's mother, the maid did not say much, but simply introduced Doctor Xu's background.
But Yumo was such a smart man that he knew the whole story immediately and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.
While Doctor Xu was taking his mother's pulse, the maid took the opportunity to call him outside and gave him fifty taels of silver.
When Yu Mo took it, he hesitated for a moment, then looked at the maid with a firm gaze.
"Thank the boss for me. I will definitely repay you in the future."
"Got it. You should take good care of your mother. We were lucky to have met you on the mountain last time, otherwise we would have been scared to death."
The maid agreed readily and did not stay long. After finishing her job, she returned to Shi Li and told her what had happened.
After listening to this, Shi Li nodded.
The master and servant walked into the yard while talking. When they reached the corridor and were about to enter the door, they saw the two servants beside Liu Qihan standing outside the yard, looking around nervously.
"What are they doing? Why aren't they waiting inside? What are they doing standing outside the door?" The maid frowned and asked curiously.
Shi Li also felt it was strange, but she asked the maid to stop and did not go forward.
The nervous looks of the two servants made her have some bad guesses.
"Is there anyone going to see Liu Qihan?"
As if to confirm her guess, after a while, a cloaked man walked out of the yard stealthily, exchanged a glance with the two servants, and then walked in another direction.
Anyone who had seen that figure from behind would know it was Wen Shiqing.
Shi Li: ...
The maid also saw it and said angrily: "It's so shameless!"
