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

Seeing her avoiding her gaze, Mo Che frowned deeply.

Xia Bai'an should not have appeared here.

He had heard about his fate a long time ago. Concubine Degui no longer wanted Xia Bai'an to come to the Millennium Hall for a pulse diagnosis, let alone see her. Why did she appear here again today...

Thinking of this, Mo Che vaguely sensed something, and his cold eyes swept towards Concubine Degui on the other side of the screen.

Concubine Degui saw that Xia Bai'an moved away knowingly, and pulled Meng Ke to sit down with a deeper smile.

"Ke'er has gone to the captain's mansion now, is everything okay?"

"Everything is fine. Captain Captain treated Ke'er very well, and Madam took care of Ke'er as if she were her own sister, and she did not slack off at all."

Meng Ke lowered his head slightly, pretending to be cute.

Concubine Degui pinched her wrist and frowned: "This is called taking good care of her? Two days ago, the palace saw that the daughters of the Meng family were all round and beautiful, and their small faces could squeeze out water. How can you, Keer?" But it's as skinny as a stick, look at this wrist... how thin it is!"

Meng Ke was stunned for a while, unable to say anything to explain, but retracted his hand aggrievedly, looked at Xia Bai'an fearfully, then lowered his head again and did not speak.

Concubine De Gui followed her gaze and looked at Xia Bai'an next to her.

"Ke'er, are you afraid of Imperial Physician Xia?"

"No... Ke'er doesn't dare to be afraid, it's just that she was scared two days ago, and she ate less recently, that's why..."

Meng Ke trembled and dared not speak.

But Lian'er next to her pretended not to listen, and knelt down in front of Concubine Degui.

"Your Majesty, our aunt was indeed frightened, and was so frightened that she couldn't eat, couldn't sleep at night, had nightmares all night and broke out in cold sweats, how can she be in good health!"

"Scared? What's going on?" Concubine De Gui frowned.

"It's all because Madam got a dead body at home before, and threw it bloody in the yard. Although it was to investigate what happened in Aunt Ying's yard next door, the scene was too scary... and some young maids were directly I fainted from fright! Our Aunt Meng has never seen this kind of thing since she was a child, so she fell ill from fright."

Lian'er spoke eagerly, and even shed tears when she got to this point.

Hearing this, the maids in the palace all showed shocked expressions, and Baozhu hurried over: "Your Majesty, the backyard can't stand any bloody things, no wonder Aunt Meng was frightened."

Concubine Degui nodded slightly, and quickly took Meng Ke's hand to comfort her carefully.

Meng Ke couldn't hold back, wept in a low voice, and kept talking.

"This matter has nothing to do with Madam, it's because I'm too timid... I don't care about it."

"Ke'er, I will deal with this matter myself."

After Concubine Degui finished speaking, she turned her head to look at Mo Che who was beyond the screen, "Captain Mo Che, I entrusted Ke'er to you because my brother trusted you. I never thought that you would be so unwilling to trust Ke'er." In my eyes, only your wife can do whatever she wants!"

Mo Che frowned deeply: "Returning to Concubine Degui, Bai An only does things to warn others. Although seeing blood is not good, it can stabilize the hearts of the people and make everyone dare not make mistakes..."

"boom--"

Concubine Degui suddenly patted the table next to her: "You are still protecting Imperial Physician Xia! Could it be that you have taken the good intentions of Ben Gong and elder brother as a donkey's liver and lungs!"

"..."

Mo Che was dumbfounded for a moment.

Of course he couldn't offend Sun Taiwei.

But... Xia Bai'an shouldn't suffer from unreasonable disasters here.

He was about to defend himself, but Xia Bai'an over there had already knelt down slowly, and said with lowered eyebrows.

"How can the captain be partial to the minister? This matter is indeed wrong. When the minister handles the affairs of the mansion in the future, he will naturally be more cautious and never let the two aunts suffer."

"..."

Mo Che's words were blocked tightly.

When he looked up, he could see Xia Bai'an's completely obedient side face, and the helplessness in his eyes when he lowered his head.

It shouldn't be like this.

This shouldn't be what Xia Bai'an should do!

After hearing this, Concubine Kede became even angrier.

"Doctor Xia! I see that you can only say some nice things in front of me, so I'm afraid that you will still be ungrateful to Ke'er in private."

"The minister will sincerely follow the teachings of the concubine Degui, and will not be ungrateful to Aunt Meng." Xia Bai'an replied.

"It sounds good. A woman like you who came from a poor country knows what etiquette, I'm afraid you only know how to be jealous in the mansion. I even heard that you are not in the new mansion, but live in the old mansion with people outside. It's confusing...not only do you not take Ke'er seriously, but where do you put the face of the Captain's Mansion?"

Concubine De Gui spoke eloquently.

A faint smile appeared in Meng Ke's eyes, and Mo Che's breath became colder as he listened.

But Xia Bai'an raised his head, facing the aggressive appearance of Shangde Guifei, but his heart was extremely calm.

Concubine Degui just wanted to support Meng Ke and suppress herself.

Whether to justify and how to justify is meaningless to her.

Since it's meaningless, she might as well droop her shoulders slowly, calm down, and said lightly.

"I'm humble, I don't know etiquette, I don't know how to manage the whole family, it's all my own fault."

The blackness in Mo Che's eyes became a little thicker.

It's not Xia Bai'an's fault.

She shouldn't have admitted her mistake.

The back of Xia Bai'an's neck suddenly hurt, she turned her head, and saw Mo Che's gloomy eyes, her heart ached.

Did she say something wrong?

She has already belittled herself like this, is there anything else Mo Che is dissatisfied with?

Or, does he think that admitting that he came from a poor family is a humble body, so he feels that he has lost face, and that's why he has the tendency to blacken!

Whether it is the former or the latter, it is difficult for her to understand.

And Concubine De Gui couldn't continue to scold her after hearing what she said, but Meng Ke rushed over and pulled Xia Bai'an up when he saw this situation.

"My sister is so self-deprecating! How can my sister be considered a lowly person! The concubine saw my sister doing business outside the city, and knew that my sister had cooperated with many shops in the capital, and even talked about business with His Highness King An... People who do these things, how can they be ordinary people, my sister is the most powerful person I have ever seen!"

"..."

Xia Bai'an's back molars were clenched instantly.

And when Mo Che heard that Xia Bai'an and Li Chen had cooperated, his sympathy for Xia Bai'an just now turned into short-term shock and surging anger.

cooperate!

What else can she and Li Chen cooperate with in private!

In terms of business, Li Chen doesn't have any shops in the capital, so what kind of cooperation do you want!

After listening to Concubine De Gui, she even went straight to the case.

"Bold! Your Majesty has reprimanded you many times for getting too close to the prince, but now you are still doing business with King An! Doctor Xia, your hand is too long!"
