Dressed as a villain's stepmother, I use spiritual springs to raise cubs

Xia Baian frowned.

It seems that this capital city is not an easy place to mess around.

However, since ancient times, the most fickle thing is the human heart. Whether it is full of crises or walking on thin ice, most of them are not natural disasters, but dangers caused by the game between human hearts.

Xia Bai'an believed that in modern society, intrigues are always inevitable, and when she came to the capital at this time, she didn't care so much about those meticulous inquiries.

Thinking of this, Xia Bai'an sipped tea and ate cakes leisurely.

The fragrance of tea overflows, but it is sweet in the mouth, and the aftertaste is slightly bitter but not astringent. The aroma of tea leaves is filled in the nostrils, and it has not dissipated for a long time. It made her eyes shine: "good tea."

Mo Che took another sip, raised his eyebrows and looked at it: "It's really good tea. I see that the cake is sweet but not greasy, and the powdered sugar is scattered. You should like it."

"Then I'll try it."

Xia Bai'an curled his lips into a smile, picked up the pastry and put it in his mouth.

It is indeed her favorite taste.

Mo Che saw her eating and drinking, looking at ease, and kept his eyes shut.

It seems that it was not a bad thing for him to bring her to the capital for his own selfishness.

They didn't know how long they had been sitting, when they heard the noise outside.

"Miss, the master ordered you to stay at home and take good care of the young master's body. You can't just leave like this, the master will be unhappy!"

"Hmph, does a mere old woman dare to take care of Miss Ben's affairs?"

After finishing the words, I saw a pink figure passing by the long corridor in front of me, that figure was delicate and cute, and his fair face was clean, leaving only some pampered ruddy.

Behind her, a group of nuns and servants chased after her helplessly, and several maids cried and shouted for her to stop, but no one dared to step forward to really stop her.

But after a while, the eldest lady disappeared.

On the contrary, Steward Xu stepped into the side hall first, seeing the calm expressions of the two, he laughed a few times.

"Miss is used to being arrogant and indulgent, please don't worry about it."

"It's okay."

Xia Bai'an shook his head.

Steward Xu saw that she gathered the powdered sugar that had fallen from the pastry in her palm, and quietly put it back on the plate when she got up, with a faint smile on the corner of her mouth, and stepped out of the way.

"Madam has woken up. I want to see you. Please go inside. As for this son...he is a foreigner after all. It is not easy to step into the family of a woman. Please sit in the back garden and pass some time." time."

"Ah."

Mo Che nodded lightly, but didn't tell Xia Bai'an anything, and followed a servant to leave from the other side.

Mo Che didn't ask.

It means she can do whatever she wants.

Thinking of this, Xia Bai'an casually followed Steward Xu to the backyard, and stepped into a luxurious room.

This is obviously a woman's boudoir, but the walls are full of scrolls, two dowry inlaid with precious jade are placed on the long dressing table, and there are many antique calligraphy and paintings hidden in the corner, all of which are priceless.

This must be the prime minister's wife who loves to read and is well-loved.

Thinking of this, Xia Bai'an followed others around the screen, and saw his wife leaning against the bed weakly.

Madam's complexion was pale and haggard, but the tenderness in her eyes was about to overflow. The moment she saw Xia Bai'an, a strange emotion flashed in her eyes, and the smile on the corner of her mouth became a little stronger.

"Nurse Shen said that a girl similar to Xue'er saved me. I still don't believe it... Now that I see it, she is indeed a young and lovely girl."

Her voice was gentle, and she raised her hand to let her sit on the stool beside the bed.

Xia Bai'an stepped forward and sat down, facing Mrs. Shang's gentle eyes, her heart skipped a beat, telling her to relax unconsciously.

Sure enough, this lady is a kind person.

Thinking about this, she stepped forward to give Madam a pulse, and slowly said: "Madam must have suffered from a severe cold a few years ago, and she was not treated in time. After a long time, her body is not as good as before. He likes to eat tonic and medicinal food, and hangs his body empty."

Shen Nai on the side smiled helplessly.

"Many doctors in the capital know about these things. Miss Xia, don't you see some other problems?"

A question mark slowly appeared on Xia Bai'an's head.

Could it be that she could have some intractable diseases out of nothing?

Isn't this against medical ethics?

Xia Bai'an's face gradually turned cold, and his sharp eyes swept towards Nanny Shen.

"Madam's body is just weak, and taking too many supplements is counterproductive. Apart from this, there is no other illness. If Shen Momo wants to hear something different, don't come to me. I don't have anything out of thin air. the ability."

After she finished speaking, she raised her eyes and got up to go out.

Mother Shen called her to stop: "Wait! This is the Prime Minister's Mansion, you dare to speak rudely in front of Madam, aren't you afraid that Master will punish you!"

Xia Bai'an stopped and thought about the Prime Minister who had the same aesthetics as him.

"Don't be afraid, Mr. Prime Minister respects such ancient houses so much, so he should also respect my medical ethics." Xia Bai'an turned around, bowed slightly to his wife on the bed and saluted, "Farewell."

After she finished speaking, she really left the room without looking back.

She can cling to the powerful, and she can also work for people like Mo Zhiqian, but she must not violate her own medical ethics.

Medical ethics is the foundation of their Tongjitang for generations.

"Wait a minute."

The lady's voice suddenly sounded from behind.

Xia Bai'an slowly stopped, stood outside the door and looked in: "Madam, do you have anything else to tell me?"

"You're fine, it's because Nanny Shen likes to test people." Madam's voice was soft.

Tentative?

Xia Bai'an was stunned for a moment, and only after a while did he realize that he was grabbed back by Shen Momo who rushed out again in a daze, and pushed him back on the stool.

Nanny Shen, who was speaking harshly just now, rubbed her hands in embarrassment.

"After all, he is the doctor who will be left behind to treat his wife in the future. This old slave always wants to test a few words and be on guard. I didn't know that the girl is so powerful, so she turned around and left, not caring about the face of the prime minister's house."

Madam gave a helpless smile, and sent the uncomfortable Shen Momo out to serve tea and water, and brought in two young maidservants, then looked at Xia Bai'an who was stunned, and said: "Don't be surprised, they always think that the people in the capital are People are all fools, with a hundred hearts and minds, and they are always on guard against me. If there is any offense, I will tell you on their behalf..."

Madam really wanted to apologize for a nanny, she leaned forward slightly, as if she wanted to bow her head to her junior.

Xia Bai'an was so frightened that he quickly supported him and laughed.

This lady is too honest to be a human being.

"Boss and Madam Shen have explained it, and I understand it, so naturally I don't feel offended."

"You are a good boy."

Madam smiled gently, and was about to say something, when a servant rushed in from outside the door, rolled around on the ground, and shouted: "Madam! The young master has fallen into the water!"
