Reborn: The First Rank "Madam"

Reborn: The First Rank “Madam” – C108

C108 – This Young Master Is Fine

“Hurry up and help Lady Yue up. What if the piece of meat in her stomach breaks? Wouldn’t outsiders say that I, the matriarch, am vicious and merciless again?” Mrs. Xue glared at Zuo Yunwen as she finished speaking.

The two of them went up and grabbed Lady Yue’s arm, lifting her up. Despite her resistance, they pushed her down onto a chair.

Lady Yue wiped her tears with her sleeve as she cried out “Aiyo! Aiyo!”. Her fake posture caused Mrs. Xue to roll her eyes in disgust.

Looking at the servants who were standing in the hall, Mrs. Xue asked in an unfriendly tone: “Where’s Zuo Shaoqing? It’s unknown whether his elder brother is dead or alive, so how could he possibly read this book?”

Zuo Yunwen finally opened his mouth: “Recently, Shao Qing only slept at dawn. He won’t wake up until afternoon.”

Mrs. Xue snorted from her nose. “He’s really hardworking. I don’t know if she’ll be able to get the leader back.”

Mrs. Xue tightened the grip on the handkerchief in her hand, worrying about Zuo Shaoyan’s body. At the same time, she was also resentful: Why didn’t Zuo Shaoqing get into trouble?

Zuo Shaoqing wasn’t sleeping. Instead, he crossed his legs and listened to Yinyi’s description of the situation in the lobby, including Zuo Shaoyan’s condition.

“Sister-in-law is quite capable. She can actually make such a rare medicine. She can make big brother fall asleep without harming his body.”

“This medicine is called ‘Three Drunks’. It’s not a poison in the first place, but a medicine concocted by Miao Jiang’s witch doctor for patients with severe illnesses. A thousand gold is hard to come by!”

Zuo Shaoqing was suddenly interested in the past three days, “Can you find out where she got this medicine from?”

Yinyi stood still and said unhurriedly, “Duke Zhen Manor has this thing. If you want it, it’s only a matter of words.”

“Didn’t you say that it is difficult to get a thousand gold coins? It’s not weird for Duke Zhen Manor, but my sister-in-law definitely doesn’t have that capability.”

“Zuo Liu-Li’s mother was once a martial artist. She escaped when the Chou family annihilated her. She was saved by the County Magistrate. It isn’t surprising that some strange things were passed on to her daughter.” Yinyi was well aware of anyone’s background in Zuo Family.

Zuo Shaoqing was stunned. After a while, he shook his head and said, “I really can’t tell…” The usually gentle and gentle elder sister-in-law was actually a chivalrous woman.

It’s just that I’m afraid that she didn’t inherit any of her mother’s abilities at all. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have ended up like this in the Zuo Family.

Yinyi knew what he was thinking just by looking at his expression. He carried on reciting the information, “Madam He was severely injured when he was running for his life. He died before he had a few years of life. The years she was alive were also very sickly.”

Zuo Shaoqing lamented: “No wonder that County Governor He only has a daughter, and a very precious treasure. He helped her choose the Zuo Family, but I didn’t think that it would actually send her into a pit of fire.”

It was only because Zuo Family was too famous in the Youuxi Town, and also because of Tutor Zuo’s golden name, there had always been a lot of people who wanted to climb up there.

Seeing that Zuo Shaoqing did not continue asking questions, Yinyi’s figure flashed as he continued listening to the questions from the corner of the wall.

Luo Xiaoliu was confused. He waited until Yinyi left before asking curiously, “Master, the reason why I can’t wake up is because Big Young Madame drugged me?”

Zuo Shaoqing glanced at him and nodded with a faint smile. If he hadn’t been paying attention to Mrs. Hoe, he probably wouldn’t have expected her to have such an ability.

As for the others, they could not even imagine it. Who would believe that a wife would secretly harm her husband?

“But isn’t it said that it was Lady Yue who poisoned them?” Lady Yue had been escorted to the main hall by the two women, and many of the servants had seen her.

“He’s just a scapegoat.” Zuo Shaoqing smiled in schadenfreude. At the same time, he secretly praised Mrs. Hoege.

He was worried that Mrs. Hoe wouldn’t be able to take care of the aftermath, but he really underestimated her.

Luo Xiaoliu couldn’t figure it out even after thinking for a long time. He asked bluntly, “Then how did Young Madame frame Lady Yue?”

“Lady Yue wants to curry favor with Zuo Shaoyan. Every day, his supplement must be personally sent by Lady Yue’s girl. It’s too easy to do something along the way.” This Lady Yue’s girl was just bought from the outside, how would she know about the scheming in the inner chamber? He didn’t have the heart to be on guard at all.

“Then, Madam, can you believe that Lady Yue wanted to harm Uncle?”

“Why not?” Zuo Shaoqing smiled evilly, “Lady Yue is still bloating her belly. It’s normal for her to have some perverted thoughts.”

As far as he knew, Lady Yue had encouraged Zuo Yunwen to mention her as his concubine. Didn’t she know that she was born to be a noble?

The silent front hall was so quiet that a pin drop could be heard. Mrs. Xue waited for a quarter of an hour with a burning heart, so she was in no mood to mock and ridicule Lady Yue.

When attendant finally led a doctor in, Mrs. Xue stood up with a swoosh. When she saw the doctor’s age, her expression became a bit unsightly.

“This person … Little Doctor, may I know which infirmary you are from?” Such a young doctor had already left his tutelage?

Everyone present had the same question. Lady Yue sniggered and said, “Is this young brother qualified? Even if you start learning medicine from the womb, how many years has it been?”

attendant, who brought the young doctor here, had a red face and lowered his head as he said: “Old Master, this doctor said that he specializes in poisons and wants to show it to the lord.”

Mrs. Xue glared at Lady Yue, her expression darkening even more. “He said it herself?” Mrs. Xue looked at the young doctor with a questioning gaze.

“Master Zuo, Madam Zuo greets me. Although I am still inexperienced, I have a deep understanding of poisons. How about you let me first show it to Master Zuo Family?”

Mrs. Xue was somewhat unwilling. She frowned and asked Madam Zhu to hand over the paper bag that she had previously found in Lady Yue’s room. “Then can you please take a look at what’s inside this paper bag?”

The young doctor took out a handkerchief and placed it on top of a paper bag before carefully opening it. That appearance of his made everyone’s doubts become even more serious.

“Did you see that?” How could there be poison in my room? I’ve never seen this package before, and I don’t know when it popped out of nowhere.” Lady Yue gave Zuo Yunwen an aggrieved look.

Mrs. Xue turned a blind eye to the couple, and continued to stare at the young doctor. Seeing the change in their expressions, she couldn’t help but ask, “How is it? What is it?”

Just when everyone thought that this young man would leave after knowing the difficulties, he suddenly said, “Can you let me see the patient?”

“Although I can see what this package is, I’m not sure if the patient fell asleep because of this drug. According to attendant’s description, it should be close enough.”

Mrs. Xue stood up excitedly and led him to Zuo Shaoyan’s room.

Inside Zuo Shaoyan’s room, Mrs. Hoe was anxiously walking back and forth. Rui Lan, her personal servant, was wiping Zuo Shaoyan’s face as she consoled him, “Miss, there’s no need to worry. We won’t be able to find out.”

“I know, you said… What if there really is a doctor who can cure it?” Then wouldn’t her efforts have been in vain?

“Miss, don’t you remember what Madame said? This medicine will only cause people to fall asleep, but it will not harm them. If you force them to wake up, it will only harm them…” Hearing footsteps outside the door, Rui Lan quickly shut her mouth.

The two of them took the initiative to walk out. Mrs. Hoe looked anxiously at Mrs. Xue. “Mother, did you invite the doctor?”

Her expression was extremely unsightly. Anyone could tell that she was worried about her uncle. Mrs. Xue was rarely nice to her and comforted, “You’ll only know after seeing this doctor.”

Mrs. Hoe looked over and saw a young man with clear features walking behind Mrs. Xue. The doctors who came before couldn’t understand what was going on. Could it be that this young man in her twenties had the ability to do so?

The young doctor only glanced at Mrs. Hoe before stopping and saying, “This lady’s face is sallow, her figure is thin, and both of her eyes are bloodshot. One look is enough to tell you that she didn’t take proper care of herself during her pregnancy.”

Mrs. Hoe was shocked. Holding her stomach, she said, “The doctor is right. I will remember it.”

The young doctor waved his hand casually and walked around her to the bed. He first observed Zuo Shaoyan’s face and sleeping posture before sitting down and checking his pulse. Finally, he concluded, “His pulse is normal. This young master is fine.”

Everyone let out a scornful snort. Just as Mrs. Xue was about to lose her temper, the young doctor added, “Everyone, don’t worry. He’ll wake up after three days and three nights. I dare to swear on my head that everything will be normal after he wakes up.”

“Then… What’s going on with my son?” Which normal person would sleep for three days without a reason and not wake up even after being struck by thunder?

The young man smiled and pointed to the paper bag, “This item is called ‘Three Drunks’. Once consumed, you will be able to sleep for three days. It is not a poison and will not harm your body.”

Three days, in three days, one day would pass from the Conference Test. In other words, Zuo Shaoyan would not be able to catch up to this time’s Conference Test.
