Reborn to marry a playboy, the scumbag kneels down and calls me aunt

"Hahaha, ma'am, you're so accurate. It's our turn to laugh now. It's so funny."

The summer sun is scorching, but there is a cool breeze under the shade of the trees, and the sunlight shines through the gaps between the leaves, interweaving light and shadow.

Su Xuqing opened her eyes lazily with a smile on her face.

"What's going on? Tell me~"

Yinhuan covered her belly and giggled non-stop. She wiped the corners of her eyes with her sleeve and said, "The daughter-in-law of the second room is not pregnant at all. She asked Zhao Qiankun for a prescription for fertility assistance, and then she got poisoned and her lower abdomen swelled. She thought she was pregnant. Oh, no, I can't take it anymore. I am dying of laughter."

Just now, the people from the second house were shouting at the door, and Yinhuan had been feeling sulky inside. Now, when she heard about this, she suddenly felt proud and laughed so hard that she was sweating profusely.

Su Xuqing pointed at the teapot and smiled, "Drink some cold tea to moisten your body. You've been squatting in the second room for a long time, and you're sweating all over."

The hair on Yinhuan's forehead had stuck together, as if it had been caught in the rain.

After taking a sip of the herbal tea, Yinhuan rubbed her hair. In the blink of an eye, her hair was dry, which shows how hot the weather was.

"Madam, I just heard that when Mrs. Li and her son heard that Su Min'er was not pregnant, their faces fell on the spot, and they left without caring about Su Min'er."

Yinhuan held her chin with both hands and said indignantly: "In the end, it was the old lady who sent people to find famous doctors everywhere to treat Su Miner's illness and detoxify her..."

"It sounds pitiful." Su Xuqing sneered and said lightly: "But she deserves it."

"That's right, her previous expression made me angry."

Before I knew it, it was past noon.

Li and Shen Chejin were nowhere to be seen, and all sorts of doctors were coming in and out of the second house.

"Alas, old princess, please forgive me. I am powerless against this poison."

"This... is it really not possible? How about you take another look?"

The doctor in brown clothes shook his head and sighed, "Silver thorn seeds are usually used as medicine to neutralize the toxicity with cloud wheat grass, which has the effect of cooling and strengthening the spleen. But when put together with kudzu vine, it is a chronic poison that will slowly torture people to death. There has been no antidote for this poison since ancient times, and I am really powerless..."

"Oh, what can we do?"

Although the old princess did not like Su Min'er, she was soft-hearted after all. She could not just watch her granddaughter-in-law die after marrying her.

The old doctor pondered for a moment, then said, "Old Princess, I heard that the Crown Prince's wife can cure the terminal illness of wolfsbane sores. I think her medical skills are extraordinary. Why do you have to go far away and let us old guys take a look?"

The old princess wanted to say something but stopped herself. She felt that every family has its own problems and it is not appropriate to tell outsiders about them.

After having the doctor sent away, the old princess looked at her crutches.

"Someone, go call Li and Shen Chejin."

After a while, Li, with a gloomy face, came to see the old princess with Shen Chejin.

Seeing this expression, the old princess said angrily, "You didn't care about your daughter-in-law's misfortune, and you let me take care of it. Now you dare to be so rude? You are so bold, aren't you?"

Seeing that the old princess was angry, Li quickly put on a flattering expression.

"Mom, you have consulted many doctors. We can't help you here..."

"Stop talking nonsense!"

The old princess sat on a pearwood chair and said in a cold voice, "Just now the doctor said that your daughter-in-law's poison is incurable. If you don't care, won't Zhao from the Duke's Mansion fight you to death?"

Li was upset, "But I don't know how to detoxify!"

Shen Chejin's eyes moved slightly, and he thought that it would be better if he couldn't be cured, so he could just marry another one, preferably one who could surpass Su Xuqing!

"The doctor also said that Su Xuqing is a skilled doctor and might be able to help." The old princess raised her eyelids and said sternly, "But think about the nonsense you just said at her door. I am too embarrassed to go over and ask her for help! Now go over there and coax her over, no matter what. Otherwise, from now on, 70% of your second room's monthly salary will be deducted!"

"Ouch! Mom, you are going to kill me!"

When Li thought about asking Su Xuqing for help, her head split with pain. But when she thought about having 70% of her monthly salary deducted, it was more painful than a knife in her heart.

"There is no room for negotiation on this matter!" The old princess made the final decision. "If it fails, you will be fined and both of you will have to kneel in the ancestral temple. When the Duke's Mansion comes to give an explanation, you will have to find a way to solve it yourself."

With one trouble after another approaching, Shen Chejin's face looked very ugly and he felt unlucky in his heart. Since he married Su Min'er, he has never stopped having these troubles.

"Let's go, can't we just go..."

Li had a sullen face, pulled Shen Chejin's sleeve and left the second room, heading for the fourth room.

Outside the small courtyard with red bricks and black tiles, there was a knock on the door.

Su Xuqing picked up a piece of cake and fed it to Yinhuan's mouth, then asked her to open the door. Yinhuan swallowed the hazelnut pastry whole, and when she opened the door, her face immediately fell.

"Madam, it's the second room's people who are here."

Yinhuan deliberately used such disrespectful words, and Li's face twitched, but she couldn't get angry.

Su Xuqing lay on the rattan chair, glanced at the door, and didn't get up at all.

"Second sister-in-law, if you have anything to say, just stand outside the door and talk."

Li's foot had just stepped over the threshold when she retracted it like lightning. She then said with an awkward expression, "Haha, Xiaojiu's wife, your sister is poisoned. The old princess said that ordinary doctors can't cure her, so she asked you to go and see her."

Su Xuqing was not stupid, she said sarcastically, "That's strange. Usually when the old princess sees me, she always asks the maids around her to come and look for me. Why did she ask you two to come today?"

Shen Chejin's face darkened when he heard this, and he said in a tough tone: "You went when the old lady asked you to go, and now you don't even listen to her?"

Su Xuqing narrowed her eyes slightly and smiled sarcastically, "Yinhuan, we're closing the door and refusing to see you."

"Hey, no, no, no!"

Li stepped on Shen Chejin and quickly blocked the door.

"Haha, let's talk it over. Let's talk it over."

Li was extremely annoyed, but she had to put on a smiling face. If Su Xuqing didn't help save people, the subsequent troubles would be even more terrible.

"Wife Xiaojiu, I know that our two families had some conflicts in the past, and what I said this morning was not pleasant, but the past is the past. What lies ahead now is a matter of life and death. If you don't save them, the Duke's Mansion will come looking for you..."

"When the Duke's Mansion comes looking for you, it will be because you failed to discipline her well. What does it have to do with me?" Su Xu interrupted Li calmly.

The corners of Li's mouth twitched and she clenched her fists in her sleeves. This woman was stubborn and difficult to deal with!

Li gritted her teeth and stopped pretending, saying bluntly: "Just tell me what it takes for you to save me!"

"Look, it would be great if we could show our attitude earlier, so that we can save ourselves the trouble of talking nonsense."

Su Xuqing slowly stretched out a finger, pointed at Shen Chejin with a cold look in her eyes, "Kneel down."
