Chapter 2155 The incident happened suddenly
Shangguan Chu's eyes were filled with tears. With outsiders present, she was too embarrassed to throw herself into Wan Shufang's arms. She could only wipe her tears vigorously and kneel down to kowtow.
"Madam, I have been blessed with a new life. If you need me in the future, please feel free to ask me for help."
The incident happened suddenly. If Chen Changli and Wan Shufang hadn't been by her side, she really couldn't have held on for too long. Her forehead hit the ground, mixed with Shangguan Chu's sincere gratitude.
Frightened, Wan Shufang quickly helped her up and scolded her, "Hurry up, kid. We would help anyone if it was you."
She wiped Shangguan Chu's tears and pushed her to see the county magistrate to change the subject: "You keep an eye on him. I still have to go get the medicine."
"it is good."
Shangguan Chu agreed, and at this moment the secret guard came and whispered something in Chen Changli's ear.
"Shufang, I have something else to do. I have to go out first."
"Go ahead, I'll be watching here, nothing will happen."
After he finished speaking, Chen Changli nodded, kissed her on the forehead, and then left in a hurry. After the man left, Chen Luoluo relaxed completely.
She looked around the house and realized there was nothing valuable there. She couldn't steal anything at all and she was so angry that she rolled her eyes.
"You are so poor, yet you still dare to buy a maid. You are so shameless and a bitch." Chen Luoluo muttered to herself, her face full of impatience.
She lowered her voice, but Shangguan Chu still saw her lips move, and subconsciously asked: "What are you mumbling about?"
Being asked a question by her suddenly, Chen Luoluo didn't know what to say. He became flustered and stammered, unable to speak. The atmosphere suddenly became awkward.
Just when Shangguan Chu was in doubt, Liu Mochen suddenly came. He rushed into the house and handed Shangguan Chu a food box as if he was presenting a treasure.
"Shangguan Chu, this is the pastry from Zuixianlou. It's delicious. It's the most famous Zuixianlou."
Hearing this, Shangguan Chu couldn't help but roll his eyes and said calmly: "Thank you, Mr. Liu."
"Oh, you're welcome. And these are all brought to you by me." Liu Mochen clapped his hands. The servant immediately stepped forward, took out the jewelry from his pocket and gave them all to Shangguan Chu.
The glittering jewels instantly attracted Chen Luoluo's attention. Seeing Liu Mochen's expensive clothes, she immediately smelled the scent of money.
She twisted her hips and came closer, getting in front of Shangguan Chu, and said in a coquettish voice: "Master Liu is really generous. He gave me such good jewelry at once."
"But my son is a man, so he can't use it much." Chen Luoluo poured a cup of tea for him as if nothing happened, bent down slightly, and showed off her good looks.
"Mr. Liu, you must be thirsty. Come and have some tea."
Chen Luoluo blinked her eyes and saw that Liu Mochen didn't speak for a long time. She thought she had conquered him, but the next second, the teacup was taken by Liu Mochen and placed heavily on the table.
"What's wrong with you, a servant? You have no manners at all." Liu Mochen scolded, his eyes frighteningly cold: "Shangguan Chu, do you want me to lend you a few people and teach them the rules?"
Hearing this, Shangguan Chu chuckled. At this point, what else did she not understand?
He was too lazy to help Chen Luoluo out, and said calmly: "He is a newcomer, and he is indeed ignorant. Hurry up and go down, otherwise, Master Liu will be unhappy and want to kill someone, and I can't do anything about it."
After hearing this, Chen Luoluo was frightened immediately and retreated tremblingly. Seeing the ungrateful man leave, Liu Mochen rolled his eyes and excitedly offered the precious medicinal materials.
"I specially collected this to nourish your father's body. Shangguan Chu, take it."
As soon as he finished speaking, the medicinal herbs had been stuffed into Shangguan Chu's arms. The clear aroma of medicine filled his nose. After learning from Wan Shufang for a few days, Shangguan Chu could also tell that this medicine was a good one.
She pursed her lips, and despite Liu Mochen's burning gaze, she still accepted the herbs: "Thank you, but I don't want these jewelry."
"The medicinal herbs are for my father and he will need them. The jewelry won't be of any use to me, so you can take them back." Shangguan Chu was firm in his attitude and packed up the jewelry to give to the servant.
Seeing this, the servant looked at Liu Mochen with a bitter face. Fortunately, Liu Mochen did not make things difficult for him. He just waved his hand and let him go out.
He yawned, looked sleepy, and tried to please Shangguan Chu: "It's up to you, Shangguan Chu, I'm a little sleepy, can I take a nap in your room?"
"We are all grown men, there shouldn't be any taboos."
"No!" Shangguan Chu refused subconsciously. When she saw Liu Mochen's suspicious look, she turned her head away and said seriously, "I don't like others to enter my room. If someone enters, I will never be able to sleep again."
Hearing this, Liu Mochen curled his lips. Even though he knew Shangguan Chu was lying and evading the question, he couldn't do anything about it and could only leave.
"Stingy, I'd better go home and sleep."
"Farewell, Master Liu."
"Hmph." Liu Mochen snorted coldly and walked away. After he walked away, he touched his chin and looked back in the direction of the old house. He felt more and more that Shangguan Chu was the woman.
That afternoon, Shangguan Chu had to go back to the academy, so he asked Chen Luoluo to take care of the county magistrate. In order to stay, Chen Luoluo agreed on the surface, but after the magistrate left, he started to slack off and took care of him perfunctorily.
The county magistrate wanted to drink water, but she was unwilling to pour him a glass.
"Drink, drink, drink. All you know is eating, drinking, defecating and urinating. If you want to drink, pour it yourself."
Chen Luoluo spoke in an indignant tone. As soon as she finished speaking, a shadow fell over her head. She was startled, and when she looked up and saw that it was Wan Shufang, she breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's so scary. Didn't you knock when you came in?"
"If you haven't done anything wrong, why would you be scared?" Wan Shufang raised her eyebrows and said that, without caring about Chen Luoluo's expression, she walked straight over.
She routinely treated the county magistrate and took out silver needles to insert them into his acupuncture points, but she did not expect to be ridiculed by Chen Luoluo.
"Oh, you're just pretending. Do you really know medical skills? Don't turn around and kill someone and then blame it on me."
Chen Luoluo was still angry. Wan Shufang was very rude about arranging her to serve an old man, but Wan Shufang had seen so many arrogant little girls like her that she didn't bother to pay any attention to her.
After quietly finishing the acupuncture, she looked at Chen Luoluo.
"Why don't we make a bet?"
"What are you betting on?" Chen Luoluo looked at her warily, only to see Wan Shufang put away the silver needle and slowly approached.
"You said I don't know medical skills, so let's bet on whether I can cure the county magistrate. If I can't cure the county magistrate, I will gouge out my eyes and cut off my hands."
"Of course, if I cure you, you have to sign a death contract and work like a slave for the government for the rest of your life, even if it means death." She was smiling and spoke lightly.
It was as if they were not talking about life and death, but just talking about the weather.
This confident look made Chen Luoluo angry, and she glared at her fiercely: "Let's bet, remember not to regret it."
"Heh, don't regret it. If you lose and don't sign the death contract, I will... make sure you don't live past tomorrow."
