Remarrying Chun Yuan

Chapter 265 Arrogant

Liu Yuechan obediently followed orders and went to the Huang family the next day. However, she did not enter the mansion smoothly. Instead, she was taken to the main hall and met a strange woman who was smiling at her.

"Is this the fourth daughter of the Liu family? At such a young age, she has already been summoned by Physician Sun to be his last disciple. She is truly a clever girl."

The woman's voice was as soft and gentle as a fox's, and despite being forty years old, she was as graceful as a young girl, exuding an air of nobility in every gesture.

Liu Yuechan didn't know who this person was. "Where is Madam Huang? I'm here to administer acupuncture to her at the appointed time."

The woman's face stiffened; she hadn't expected that the young girl in front of her wouldn't even know how to exchange a few pleasantries.

The mother stepped forward and said, "This is our concubine Chun from our household."

Liu Yuechan nodded. "Can I go get treatment now?"

"..."

The women looked at each other in bewilderment.

Does this little girl really not understand, or does she simply not care about her at all?

Aunt Chun pursed her lips, then smiled again, "It's not that I'm delaying Fourth Sister Liu's treatment, but I wanted to ask how our mistress's condition is? Is she recovering?"

Liu Yuechan shook her head. "I can't say for now."

"Why can't we say? If it can't be cured, there's no need for Madam to continue suffering like this, is there?" Aunt Chun pressed.

“I’m just following my master’s instructions to perform acupuncture and treatment. If you have any questions, why don’t you ask my master?” Liu Yuechan seemed harmless, but she was also sharp-tongued. “Besides, the illness hasn’t been treated yet, so how do you know if it can be cured? Your family isn’t poor, so why are you dragging your feet on saving someone’s life? My sister said that the Liu family will cover all the expenses, and your family doesn’t need to pay anything.”

Aunt Chun: "..." In her heart, she had already cursed Liu Yuechan's ancestors. As expected of the Liu family, all they talk about is money!

"I was just concerned about your wife, I didn't mean anything else."

"Then let's not waste any more time, shall we? I've already said it three times!" Liu Yuechan made no attempt to hide her dissatisfaction.

Aunt Chun's anger had reached its peak. She waved to the maid at the door, signaling her to take Liu Yuechan to see the madam.

Liu Yuechan turned and left, carrying her medicine box with difficulty as she went, her fingers constantly moving as she memorized the location of the needle.

She wasn't intentionally targeting Aunt Chun, but she was afraid that her mind would get confused and she wouldn't remember... Moreover, there was something even more important to do today: to convey her second sister's words to Huang Wanwan. She was terrified that she might miss something, or she would be in big trouble.

Seeing Liu Yuechan leave, Aunt Chun's face instantly fell! The white porcelain teacup in her hand crashed to the ground with a "bang," shattering into pieces.

"What a piece of trash! He can't even say a word!" she cursed.

“What would a woman from a merchant family know about so many rules of etiquette? You don’t need to lower yourself to her level!” said Mama He, who served her closely.

“This young lady from the Liu family is really nosy. I’m afraid she…” Aunt Chun stopped there, naturally afraid that she might discover something.

"Don't worry, that old woman has already gone with her. Besides, that girl seems a bit dim-witted and doesn't necessarily know anything." Madam He glanced at her and leaned closer. "Besides, the master is biased towards you. You've waited for so many years, there's no need to rush."

"How can I not be anxious!" Aunt Chun said. "You've seen how many vixens are in this mansion these days! Even if Master favors me, I'm getting old and losing my beauty..."

“Master always keeps his word and never forgets his promises. Besides, you have your eldest son by your side.” Madam He mentioned the most crucial person.

The eldest son in the household was born to Consort Chun, and based on that alone, no one could shake her position.

Aunt Chun felt a little relieved and leaned back on the couch with her eyes closed. "That wretched girl woke me up when she left. I must not let the eldest young lady leave the manor."

"Yes."

While Aunt Chun was making her plans, Liu Yuechan had already gone to see Huang Wanwan.

She was drenched in sweat after completing the acupuncture treatment.

It may seem like just a few needles, but it requires an extraordinary amount of energy, which is why Doctor Sun keeps saying that she's not a man.

Huang Wanwan watched from the side, occasionally wiping her mother's sweat.

Liu Yuechan glanced at the old woman who had come with her, "Don't all crowd in the room, the air is bad, go outside."

The old woman was taken aback. "I'm here to take orders. What if they need me?" If she went out, what if this young lady said something?

"Didn't you hear me? Wanwan was wiping Madam's sweat, and you just stared? You didn't even offer to help pour water. I thought you were here to supervise the work." Liu Yuechan rolled her eyes and went back to the back of her head.

The old woman was at a loss and wanted to step forward to help.

Huang Wanwan also told her to leave, "Go out and wait at the door. We'll call you when we need you."

The old woman was somewhat reluctant, "The master and the concubine are also thinking of the madam."

"roll!"

Huang Wanwan roared angrily, and the old woman quickly left.

She then instructed the maid to keep watch at the door so that no one else would disturb them, "Does your sister have something to say?" She had close ties with the Liu family and knew Liu Yuechan well.

Liu Yuechan nodded, and was about to whisper something in his ear.

But there were many people gathered at the window, and it was clear that the old woman wasn't the only one who had her ears pricked up.

Huang Wanwan pulled Liu Yuechan to her mother's bedside. "So tell me the truth, can it be cured?" she said loudly.

Liu Yuechan continued speaking to Aunt Chun, "You should ask my master. I really don't know, it's not that I'm not telling you on purpose!" She picked up a needle and gently wrote the character "poison" in Huang Wanwan's palm.

Huang Wanwan's hand trembled, and her eyes almost popped out!

"Is it because my mother's condition isn't good that you're deliberately lying to me? Tell me the truth!" Her voice choked instantly, her face filled with disbelief. How could this be!

Liu Yuechan pouted, "Sister Wanwan, you know I always tell the truth, and my second sister also told me not to hide anything from you."

Huang Wanwan kept talking, even going on about how to use the thousand-year-old ginseng that Liu Yuechu had brought.

As she spoke, Liu Yuechan wrote each word in her palm.

Huang Wanwan felt as if she had fallen into an ice cellar, her heart chilled to the bone. She never imagined that her mother's poor health was actually due to poisoning!

"When you get back, tell your second sister to rest assured, and don't send any more of these expensive medicines. Mother doesn't need them for now, so it's better for the Liu family to keep them." Huang Wanwan's voice was particularly sorrowful.

"The needling technique will take seven days. After seven days, Master will personally come to examine Madam's pulse again." Liu Yuechan thought carefully and seemed to have nothing more to say.

Huang Wanwan nodded, and Madam Huang groaned softly on the bed. Liu Yuechan quickly went to remove the needles.

The maids prepared warm water to wipe her body, and some also prepared brewed medicine.

Liu Yuechan packed her medicine box and left.

Back at his residence, he told Liu Yuechu everything that had happened.

"That concubine in Wanwan's household seems quite powerful; a mere concubine is actually sitting in the main seat."

Her birth mother was also a concubine, and Liu Yuechan carefully compared the two, but neither of them had ever been so bold.

"So this Aunt Chun is the woman Lord Huang wanted to marry back then?" Liu Yuechu guessed.

Liu Yuechan breathed a sigh of relief; she had finally completed her task. "There were just too many people watching. I only relayed what my sister wanted to say to Sister Wanwan. I don't know what she was thinking..."
