Legend of Concubine’s Daughter Minglan Chapter 214

Old Madam Qin sighed slightly with pitiful look on her face . Then she said to Minglan, “Your Eldest Sister-in-law and I have no other ways . I have to ask a favor from you today . When you go back to your mansion, can you ask Tingye to help with your Eldest Brother’s disease? He knows lot of people . Just tell him to find a great doctor who can treat his poor brother . ”

Hearing that, with Madam Shao’s eyes brightened, she looked at Minglan earnestly as if she got hopeful again . Minglan’s heart jolted all of a sudden . Ever since she had entered into this room, she had been one hundred percent alert . Having pondered for a short while, she said gently, “Of course . But I’d like to know which doctors my sister-in-law have already invited . I don’t want Tingye to find the same doctors . That will only hold the treatment up . ”

Madam Shao found her words quite reasonable . Then she started to told the name of the doctors she had invited one by one . As she was saying that, she also got depressed-- She had visited all the famous doctor families in the capital and the famous clinics in Shanxi, Shandong, Henan and Hebei Provinces . She had invited the president of the imperial hospital and also the well-known country doctors . Over the two to three decades, she had nearly invited all the doctors that could come .

After saying that, Madam Shao saw the awkward expression on Minglan’s face . Then she knew that the thing she had asked for was beyond Minglan’s power .

“We will still look for doctors, that’s for sure . But . . . ” Minglan thought for a while and then said cautiously, “As the saying goes, people of the same kind fall into the same group . The people Tingye often meet with everyday are all his brothers in the army . And the doctors he’s able to find are only good at traumatic injuries . Old Madam is an experience woman, Third Sister-in-law’s parents have lived in the capital for a long time . And don’t forget about our uncles and aunts . We can gather together to think where we can find a good doctor . As long as we have a name, Tingye will come to invite that doctor . I mean, putting our heads together is better than thinking of a way by yourself . ” Gu Tingye might not know about any outstanding doctor, but if they give him a name, he might be able to invite that doctor over easily because of the influence he had .

Madam Shao understood what Minglan had tried to imply and agreed on that by nodding and saying, “It’s the best we can do . ”

With light flas.h.i.+ng in Old Madam Qin’s eyes, she glanced at Minglan and sighed, “Your Eldest Brother only have two brothers . I hope Tingye could come more often to visit his Eldest Brother . Maybe Tingyu will get better . ”

Minglan smiled shyly and replied, “I’ll talk to Tingye when I go back . ”

Seeing her answering so quickly, the other women had nothing else to say . Zhu s.h.i.+ couldn’t help but size up her new sister-in-law carefully . Right now Minglan was sitting there quietly . Most of the time she only listened to others and chip in from time to time . She never talked too much and only talked about the necessary things . Every words came out from her mouth were rather reserved . She seemed to have agreed to everything but actually agreed to nothing .

Zhi s.h.i.+ gave out a wry smile secretly, feeling that her mother-in-law’s plan might come to nothing .

Suddenly, the maids outside the room reported loudly, “Young Lady Rong is here . ” The four women turned their heads, seeing Gong Hongxiao and Qiuniang entering the room . Rong who wore a light yellow jacket embroidered with chrysanthemum was walking ahead of the two women . The little girl still seemed feeble with her head lowered, speaking nothing .

“Come give obeisance to your mother . ” Zhu s.h.i.+ said that with a smile .

Rong lowered her head and gave her obeisance . When she squatted down, she couldn’t help sway, seeming unwilling to do so . Then she said in a very low voice, “Madam . ”

The girl’s stubbornness made Qiuniang sighed slightly . The latter also bowed to Minglan gently . Meanwhile, the quick-witted Gong Hongxiao stepped forward and gave her obeisance affably with her lovely voice, “Madam, it’s an honor to meet you . ” 

Minglan nodded to the three of them smilingly, saying, “I heard from Third Madam that you have all packed your large cases . Now go pack your other things and we can go back to the Cheng Manor today . ”

Qiuniang was completely overjoyed, eyes filled with happiness . Gong Hongxiao raised her head to look at Minglan and bit her lips . It seemed that she wished to speak something but stopped on a second thought . Minglan, bothered to hear what she would say, pretended not to see that . However, Old Madam Qin said kindly, “Second Madam is a nice woman . You can tell her everything . ”

Gong Hongxiao bowed to Minglan while saying in a reverent tone, “I want to bring two of my maids with me, they are called Jinxi and Wu’er . . . They have come to this mansion with me when I got married . I, I don’t want to leave them . . . ” Her voice sounded lower and lower .

Minglan noticed keenly that Rong turned her head to look at Gong Hongxiao quickly and then lowered her head immediately .

Hearing that, Old Madam Qin looked at Minglan with a smile while making eye-contact with Minglan . The latter replied with a smile and said, “As long as Old Madam and Eldest Sister-in-law agreed with that, I won’t say no . ”

Old Madam Qin, having nodded with satisfaction, pointed to the two concubines of Gu Tingye and said to Minglan softly, “Their lives haven’t been easy over these years . Tingye left for so long and they never heard from him ever since then . Since we didn’t know what happened to him, the two stubborn women insisted on waiting for him . Alas . . . I know you have good heart . Please show mercy to them if they make any mistake in the future for the sake of their affection to Tingye . ”

Her words were full of compa.s.sion and kindness . Hongxiao and Qiuniang, as grateful as they felt right now, both looked at Old Madam Qin with their eyes filled with tears .

Gu Tingye had left Marquis Ningyuan’s mansion for three years . However, how the two concubines had been treated during the first two years was completely different how they had been treated during the last year . Minglan, having been impressed how Old Madam Qin had managed to utter those hypocritical words so fluently and naturally, made up her mind to learn from her mother-in-law . After that, she copied Old Madam Qin’s sincere tone and soft voice, showing a beaming smile on her pretty face while saying, “Don’t worry, mother, even if you don’t say so, I would never mistreat them!”

Old Madam Qin held Minglan’s hand with an amiable smile in her eyes, “Good girl!”

Zhu s.h.i.+ covered her mouth and chuckled . Madam Shao put on a satisfied look on her face . Hongxiao and Qiuniang expressed their thanks reverently . Hongxiao even took out a handkerchief to wipe the tears on the corner of her eyes to add more emotional factors to the scene . The maids who stood by the sides all grinned . It seemed that everyone had a.s.sumed that the harmonious atmosphere was real . As the saying went, life was like a play-- Minglan felt that she did have a harmonious day .
