Chapter 117.5

Zi You then said to Qiyan, “Qiyan, prepare the medicine, knife, and scissors.”

Qiyan immediately wrapped a silk scarf around Zhao HongXiang’s wrist. She also brought a chair for Zi You to sit. Zi You looked mockingly at Zhao HongXiang’s maidservants who looked at her with guarded eyes. She coldly snorted. “You two are Shizi Ye’s first-rank maidservants? You’re not attentive at all. This Xiaojie is a guest. You don’t serve me tea, but you don’t even prepare a chair for this Xiaojie. No wonder you can’t serve Shizi Ye well and let him fall ill to this state.”

These two maidservants were having an affair with Zhao HongXiang. But he even called out “You’er” in his sleep. Of course, they held hostility towards Zi You.

When Zi You came, they glared at her with jealousy.

When they saw Zhao HongXiang looking stupidly at her, they became even more jealous.

Zi You deliberately said what she said. The reason was that in her previous life, Zhao HongXiang’s maidservants were bad people. They were nasty characters who wanted to climb onto his bed. These two first-rank maidservants called Qiuyue and Chunhua were even worse. They became accomplices who helped Yu Lanxuan deal with Zi You later on.

Zi You certainly wouldn’t give up any chance to take care of them.

Sure enough, Zhao HongXiang heard Zi You’s words and immediately yelled in a hoarse voice, “Scram out. Call Xiahe and Dongmei over.”

The two aggrieved maidservants left. After a while, two maidservants who dressed and looked the same as the two previous maidservants came in.

But they knew how to curtsy and salute Zi You. They brewed tea and served it to Zi You.

However, Zi You did not drink it. She quietly diagnosed Zhao HongXiang. About five minutes later, she stood up and said to Xiahe and Dongmei, “Take out your Shaoye’s injured leg. I want to check the wound.”

The two maidservants were contemptuous. They thought, ‘What general’s Di granddaughter? So low and cheap. She not only learns medicine, but wants to see men’s limbs. She’s no different from those lowly doctors in the city.’
