Chapter 331: The Gentle-Looking Maid with a Serious Heart
Chunhua nodded quickly, took a step forward to help Liu Leqing up, and then carefully helped her sit down in front of the dressing table.
Liu Leqing looked at his haggard self in the mirror and became more and more upset. He couldn't help but cover his forehead with his hands, with a hint of impatience in his tone.
"Where's Qiu Rong? Why didn't I see her come to serve me today?"
Normally it was Qiu Rong who dressed and combed Liu Leqing, and she had long been accustomed to Qiu Rong.
Chunhua paused slightly for a moment as she combed the ball in her hand, muttering to herself, she had never expected that Liu Leqing still remembered Qiurong.
She took a deep breath and answered softly, "Qiu Rong is ill. The doctor said she needs to take good care of herself."
"fall sick?"
Liu Leqing frowned, turned to look at Chunhua and said unhappily, "Since she is sick, let her recover first."
"Go and recuperate. Come back and serve me when she is well again."
When Chunhua heard what Liu Leqing said, she was so surprised that she almost dropped the comb in her hand.
She stared at Liu Leqing with wide eyes in disbelief.
Although Liu Leqing knew that Qiu Rong's health had not been good, he still wanted to move her out to recuperate.
Generally speaking, once many maids and servants fell ill and were moved out of the mansion, most of them ended up waiting to die.
Chunhua came back to her senses and said to Liu Leqing with a trembling voice, "Grandma, Qiu Rong's health is not very good right now. I hope you can show some leniency and let her stay in the mansion to recuperate."
Liu Leqing raised his hand expressionlessly to interrupt Chunhua's plea, and said in a cold voice, "The masters live in the mansion. Chunhua is sick now, don't let others be infected with the disease."
"It's a good opportunity for her to take a good rest during this period of time."
A feeling of sadness welled up in Chunhua's heart, as if she saw Qiurong's fate.
Although she already knew Liu Leqing's true identity, she was still shocked by his indifference at this moment.
Chunhua knew in her heart that no matter what she said, she could not change Liu Leqing's decision to let Qiu Rong move away.
At the same time, Azhi from Yilan Courtyard had received Liu Leqing's instructions. She carefully washed and dressed herself and walked towards the main courtyard.
This morning, Azhi was dressed particularly delicately and cutely, with a hint of charm on her tender and rosy little face.
Her slender waist was particularly eye-catching. After Chu Yunzhi's care and nourishment last night, Azhi looked like a ripe peach today.
Liusu supported Ah Zhi and said with envy in her eyes, "Miss, you are too tired this morning. When the master left, he specifically told you that after you come back to pay your respects and go back to Yilan Courtyard, he will come over to have dinner with you today."
Azhi didn't expect Chu Yunzhi to be so considerate, and a feeling of sweetness and warmth welled up in her heart.
She smiled shyly and gently twisted Liusu's arm to express her joy and gratitude.
Ah Zhi reminded, "Okay, stop teasing me. We have to hurry to the main courtyard and get past the grandmother first."
At this time, Liu Leqing in the main courtyard had been waiting for a long time, but because she had not slept all night, her face looked very ugly.
Chunhua stood aside cautiously, fearing that she might cause Liu Leqing's displeasure.
After being slapped before, Chunhua became more cautious.
Upon hearing that Ah Zhi had come to pay her respects, Liu Leqing straightened his sleeves and said in a cold voice, "Let her in."
When Azhi stepped into the room, he immediately felt Liu Leqing's cold gaze.
The look was as if he was looking at a sinner, and it made Ahzhi's back feel slightly cold.
However, she still maintained a faint smile on the surface, walked up to Liu Leqing gracefully, saluted, and said respectfully, "My concubine greets the Grandmother."
Liu Leqing looked at Azhi's dignified and gentle posture, and the hatred in his heart became increasingly difficult to suppress.
She still tried to force a smile and nodded slightly to signal Azhi to stand up and sit down.
Azhi had already seen the raging jealousy burning in Liu Leqing's eyes, so when she stood up, she deliberately exposed her slender neck, and her flawless neck like white jade was covered with traces of ambiguity.
Liu Leqing certainly knew what that thing was, but Chu Yunzhi had never been so uninhibited towards her.
At this moment, a string in Liu Leqing's head suddenly broke.
She clenched the handkerchief tightly in her hand, and the faces of Azhi and Chu Yunzhi appeared involuntarily in her mind.
The two of them must have had a great time last night, otherwise how could they leave such obvious marks?
Looking at Ahzhi sitting there with a smile on her face, her pretty little face showing a rosy glow, one can feel at a glance that she is well nourished.
Liu Leqing really wanted to rush up and tear that pretty face into pieces.
Normally Chunhua would help Liu Leqing in charging into battle, but today Chunhua seemed to have become a mute.
Liu Leqing ran her fingertips across the pattern on her cuffs and said slowly, "Sister, you didn't offer me tea last time. Why don't you offer me a cup of tea today?"
Calling her a younger sister sounded intimate, but Ah Zhi couldn't help but become alert.
He asked me to serve tea for no reason, it was obvious that he had something planned for me.
However, Azhi hoped that Liu Leqing would target her. If Liu Leqing did not target her, then Azhi would not be able to carry out the next action. She was just waiting for Liu Leqing to make a move.
Seeing Chunhua placing the boiling hot teacup in front of him, Azhi immediately guessed what Liu Leqing wanted to do.
It's nothing more than asking yourself to hold a cup of boiling water.
If I lose my balance and drop the teacup, I would be disrespectful to the mistress.
Even if you hold the tea carefully, your fingertips will certainly be burned and you will suffer physical pain.
Ah Zhi sneered in his heart, but pretended to be respectful and walked forward and knelt in front of Liu Leqing.
At this time Chunhua half-knelt down with the teacup in her hand. When Azhi picked up the hot teacup, she was startled for a moment, and then her face turned pale and bloodless.
She raised her teacup and said in a neither loud nor soft voice, "I offer tea to Grandma."
However, Liu Leqing, who was sitting at the top, did not move, and was watching Azhi suffer with satisfaction and pride in his eyes.
Just bear with it.
Bitch.
Tears welled up in Ahzhi's eyes and her arms trembled slightly. She was trying her best to endure the burning sensation at her fingertips.
Liu Leqing, however, continued to lecture him without any hurry, "You must be clear about your responsibilities. You are no longer an ordinary maidservant beside your mother."
"You have to understand that your most important task now is to expand your family for me..."
Just when Liu Leqing was about to continue scolding, Azhi suddenly couldn't hold on and shook a few times.
The teacup in her hand fell to the ground and shattered.
She anxiously reached out to pick up the ceramic fragments and accidentally cut her fingertips.
Blood dripped from the fingertips onto the ground, splashing out bright blood flowers.
There was a flash of relief in Liu Leqing's eyes, but he shouted loudly with displeasure on his face.
"Li Lingzhang, do you have a problem with me? I just asked you to serve tea, but you acted like this. You even dared to smash the teacup in front of me. How presumptuous!"
Ah Zhi raised her head helplessly, looking at Li Lingzhang with her bright eyes helplessly. Her delicate and beautiful face turned as pale as paper because of nervousness.
She quickly explained, "No, I didn't drop the teacup on purpose. It was just too hot. Madam, please forgive me."
Liu Leqing twirled the jade ring in her hand with a barely perceptible smile on her face but her voice was still lazy.
