Chapter 2598: What Medicine Did You Buy?Chapter 2598: What Medicine Did You Buy?
Upon arrival, Ning Shu saw Mistress Yun sitting on a lounge chair, with a gloomy expression and bad complexion, glaring fiercely at her like a prickly hedgehog.
Ning Shu immediately lowered her head and curtsied.
Mistress Yun spoke in a stern voice, “What medicine did you buy last time and where did you buy it?”
Ning Shu could tell that Mistress Yun was impatient and anxious.
Ning Shu thought to herself that Lu Mingxuan must have gotten into serious trouble.
Ning Shu replied, “I bought medicine for treating abdominal pain from Jishi Hall.”
“Is that really all you got?” Mistress Yun stared at Ning Shu and sent a servant to fetch someone from Jishi Hall to confirm that Ning Shu had only bought the medicine she claimed to have bought.
Ning Shu inwardly sighed in relief. Good thing she had picked up the rest of the medicine in a different location, otherwise she would’ve been in trouble.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSoon the servant brought the doctor from Jishi Hall over. Mistress Yun asked the doctor a couple questions and even had the doctor smell the medicine residue to confirm that it was simply pain medicine.
Although Ning Shu was cleared of suspicion, Mistress Yun still looked fierce and stern, her eyes shooting daggers at Ning Shu.
Ning Shu: …
She was clearly just venting her anger.
Mistress Yun gestured for Ning Shu to leave, and as she exited the courtyard, she bumped into Lu Juning.
“Sister, are you also going to see Madam?” Ning Shu asked.
Lu Juning nodded. “I heard that something had happened to Eldest Sister, so I came to take a look.”
Ning Shu’s mouth twitched. More like she was here to rub salt in the wound.
“What did Mistress Yun want with you? Did you do something wrong and get punished?” Lu Juning inquired.
Although everyone else referred to Mistress Yun as Madam, only Lu Junning addressed her directly by her name.
This angered Mistress Yun to the point she often smashed things; however, it wasn’t incorrect for Lu Junning to address her this way since she was the legitimate daughter and rightful master of the household – whereas a concubine could only be considered half a master.
Ning Shu could sense that Lu Junning had malicious intentions when asking about her conversation with Mistress Yun and just said lightly, “It’s nothing serious. Madam simply wanted to talk to me for a bit.”
However, upon hearing this response from Ning Shu, Lu Junning furrowed her eyebrows disapprovingly. “In this mansion, only my mother can be called ‘Madam.’ Since Mistress Yun hasn’t been legitimized yet, it’s improper for you to address her as such.”
Ning Shu: →_→
It was just an address. She’d be crazy to get on Mistress Yun’s bad side just for this.
Just because someone was addressed as ‘Madam’ didn’t necessarily mean they were a legitimate wife.
If you wanted to defend your mother’s status and rights, go for it, but what did it have to do with me?
Ning Shu said lightly, “Everyone calls her that way, so I can only call her that too.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe didn’t dare to oppose Mistress Yun, who managed the inner courtyard.
Lu Junning looked at Ning Shu coldly, with a hint of disdain in her eyes.
People without a backbone who curried favor with any side were the most detestable.
Ning Shu: …
That look again.
Ning Shu was annoyed with her self-pitying act as well, the way she acted as if the whole world had wronged her and that she was the most pitiful person.
She was no better or worse than the rest of them.
She was allowed to scheme against others, but others weren’t allowed to scheme against her? How many people did she take down for power and gain in her previous life? Why didn’t she remember that?
Ning Shu curtsied and said, “I’ll take my leave, Sister.”
As she passed by Lu Junning, the maid beside Lu Junning said displeasedly, “Miss, why does Third Miss treat you with such an attitude? She’s just a lowly non-legitimate daughter.”
Lu Junning replied indifferently, “Don’t mind her.”
