Volume 1_Chapter 211: The Imperial Uncle Says She Is a Treasure

Facing Lady Shui's gaze filled with doubt, Yun Qiyue looked open and honest, curling her lips, "I took your pulse while helping you just now."

Upon hearing this, Shui Qianqiao looked surprised, and then praised her sincerely, "You are truly amazing."

Shui Qianqiao had always been easy to talk to when it came to her own people.

Being praised by an elder, Yun Qiyue blushed a little.

However, being Yun Qiyue, she quickly calmed down.

Afterward, Shui Qianqiao thought of one thing.

"For so many years, I have lived here, and all my food and drink have been prepared by Zhu Qing..."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Qing's calm expression had a ripple, and there was a bit of urgency in her eyes. Without saying a word, she immediately knelt down, "Madam, it wasn't this servant; this servant did not harm Madam."

Upon hearing this, Shui Qianqiao sighed, "Zhu Qing, listen to me finish first."

Seeing Zhu Qing not moving, Shui Qianqiao made a gesture to help her up.

Seeing this, how could Zhu Qing dare to let Shui Qianqiao help her up? So she immediately stood up.

Seeing Zhu Qing stand up, a smile appeared on Shui Qianqiao's face, "You have always followed me and served me; how could I not believe you?"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Qing quickly said: "This is all what this servant should do."

Shui Qianqiao smiled, then looked at everyone, "Except for the food brought by Jun Mengran, I have never eaten anything else provided by the villa."

Since she was young, Jun Mengran liked to stick to Shui Qianqiao, following behind her and sweetly calling her Mother.

Even if one's heart were made of stone, one would always be moved to some extent.

Therefore, every time Jun Mengran said she had cooked new food for her, Shui Qianqiao would always taste it.

At that time, Jun Mengran was still young, and her hands would always get hurt; Shui Qianqiao would persuade her not to do it anymore.

At that time, Jun Mengran said, "As long as I see Mother eating the things I make, I am very happy, so Mother, I like to make food for Mother."

Shui Qianqiao naturally liked such a Jun Mengran.

If it weren't for Jun Mengran targeting the person in Jue'er's heart, she wouldn't have been cold to her.

At this very moment, she also remembered one thing.

A few days ago, because she was feeling unwell and had no appetite, Jun Mengran kept persuading her to eat another bite.

Heh, thinking about it, she knew, right?

Thinking about it now, it was she who had been blind for so many years.

Thinking of this, a trace of imperceptible sadness flashed across Shui Qianqiao's eyes.

The others in the room heard that it was Jun Mengran's doing, and everyone's expressions changed.

They originally thought Jun Mengran had feelings for Shui Qianqiao; now it seemed that wasn't entirely the case.

Others might not have seen it, but Ye Lanjue saw the sadness that flashed in his aunt's eyes.

Ye Lanjue knew that his aunt looked indifferent on the surface, but she was actually the most sentimental person.

If it weren't for this, she wouldn't have come from there more than ten years ago to find him, and she wouldn't have become the "Villa Mistress" for his sake.

Ye Lanjue didn't continue to discuss Jun Mengran, but looked at Yun Qiyue, "Can my aunt be cured?"

Although it was a question, Ye Lanjue actually trusted Yun Qiyue's medical skills very much.

Bringing Yun Qiyue here was, firstly, because his aunt wanted to see her, and secondly, because of Yun Qiyue's medical skills.

Yun Qiyue heard this, and before she could answer, Shui Qianqiao comforted her, "Don't have any burden; it doesn't matter if it can't be cured. I've been used to it for so many years."

After saying this, Shui Qianqiao also smiled, "Besides, I'm at such an old age; it doesn't matter if it's cured or not."

Yun Qiyue: "..."

Although she knew Aunt said this to comfort her, so as not to give her pressure.

But, was Aunt serious about being at "such an old age"?

Although Ye Lanjue's aunt looked a bit haggard and sickly, her skin condition and everything were very good, looking no more than thirty-something.

Moreover, she could be certain that as long as Aunt's illness was cured, she would definitely look even younger.

And with that, she still said "old age"? She didn't understand.

Complaining in her heart was one thing, but she still had to speak.

"Aunt's illness can be cured, but it requires continuous acupuncture for fourteen days."

However, as soon as she mentioned this time, Yun Qiyue felt a bit troubled.

She had come out without Grandpa knowing, and it had already been several days. If she stayed for another fourteen days, she felt the General's Mansion might be in chaos.

Shui Qianqiao heard that she could be cured, and it only took fourteen days, and for a moment, she was stunned.

Even Ye Lanjue and Yin Zhong couldn't help but look at Yun Qiyue in astonishment.

After a long time, Shui Qianqiao smiled and looked at Ye Lanjue, "Aunt thought you would be alone for the rest of your life; I didn't expect you to pick up a treasure all of a sudden."

Ye Lanjue glanced at Yun Qiyue, then nodded, "Indeed."

Yun Qiyue: "..."

The surprise came too fast, didn't it?

The Imperial Uncle said she was a treasure; this was definitely a good omen.

Afterward, neither Ye Lanjue nor Shui Qianqiao was in a hurry to let Yun Qiyue treat her on the spot. Ye Lanjue only said, "I will arrange it," and then turned and left, taking Yun Qiyue with him.

When they reached the door, Ye Lanjue turned his head and said to Chen Feng, "Arrange more people to watch over Aunt."

After saying this, he left with Yun Qiyue.

It was just that Yun Qiyue always felt that Ye Lanjue's last arrangement was somewhat intriguing, but walking on the road, Yun Qiyue found it hard to ask, so she kept it in, looking like she wanted to ask but didn't.

However, before they walked out of the back mountain, Ye Lanjue stopped his steps.

Yun Qiyue didn't expect Ye Lanjue to stop suddenly, and for a moment, she couldn't brake in time, bumping directly into Ye Lanjue's arms.

"Why? We haven't even gone back yet, and you're already in such a hurry to throw yourself into my arms?"

Upon hearing this, Yun Qiyue had black lines all over her face.

Just as she was about to speak, she heard Ye Lanjue change his words, "Speak, what do you want to ask?"

Upon hearing this, Yun Qiyue's eyes lit up, and she immediately asked the question that had been puzzling her.

Ye Lanjue curled his lips and smiled, "Afraid that some people might jump over the wall in desperation..."

On the other side, in the villa's study.

Jun Mengran entered Jun Linche's study trembling, and said cautiously, "Father..."

"Pa—" a sound echoed throughout the study.

Jun Mengran covered her burning face, but didn't dare to say anything more, only kneeling on the ground in terror.

"Useless thing, what use are you after I've raised you for so many years?" Jun Linche was furious.

Jun Mengran covered her face, lowered her head, her eyes filled with grayness.

But Jun Linche didn't stop because Jun Mengran didn't resist, "A thing that fails more than it succeeds, all my layouts for so many years have been ruined by you, do you know that?"

Jun Mengran was terrified, "Father, I didn't mean to, I don't know how it turned out like this, I..."

"Shut up—"

Jun Linche interrupted Jun Mengran's words without mercy.

Jun Mengran's body trembled.

Afterward, Jun Linche used his hand to hook Jun Mengran's chin.

Jun Mengran only felt pain in her chin, tears swirling in her eyes, but she didn't dare to let them fall, forced to meet Jun Linche's eyes, her eyes filled with terror.

"Ran'er, have I been good enough to you all these years?"

Upon hearing this, Jun Mengran's body shook, her teeth couldn't help but chatter, but she had to open her mouth to respond, "Yes—" ===== CHAPTER 212 =====
