Chapter 246: Exaggerated Complaint
Normally, the maids had never been humiliated by Cheng Xiaodie. They were the ones who were said to be bullying others.
But in the current situation, the maid was completely at a loss. She didn't know what to do at all.
"Sister-in-law, how about letting them find a doctor?" Shan Xi saw that it was already like this. She was also afraid that Cheng Xiaodie was really dead, and then sister-in-law would be in big trouble.
"Don't worry. Wait a little longer."
Song Qingci was the one who did it, she knew it better than anyone else.
Sure enough, everyone in the room waited for another quarter of an hour, and Cheng Xiaodie actually woke up by herself.
The person woke up, but the pain in the body did not disappear.
When Cheng Xiaodie saw Song Qingci's face, she opened her mouth to speak, but she still couldn't utter a single syllable.
Not only that, her hands felt even more painful.
It was not until this moment that she felt real fear in her heart.
As a lady of noble family, she knew her own value better than anyone else.
Her marriage is her biggest bargaining chip.
However, her hands are now disabled and her voice has been made hoarse by the poison.
She is like this, how can she be worth anything at all?
People without value are destined to be abandoned in the family.
Song Qingci walked forward, squatted down, and lifted Cheng Xiaodie's chin with his fingers, forcing her to look at him.
"Are you scared?!" Song Qingci's light voice sounded extremely heavy in Cheng Xiaodie's ears.
"Remember this fear forever. In the future, when you see someone from our General's Mansion, it would be best if you could remember this fear!"
"Does that stupid Shan Yu need to pay for the things on the ground?"
Song Qingci's eyes swept over the jewelry scattered on the ground.
Cheng Xiaodie shook her head.
Her face was covered with sweat and tears from the pain, and her makeup was completely smudged. She looked very shocking.
Song Qing said goodbye, turned his head and blinked vigorously. Oh, it's really ugly!
When she turned around, she grabbed Cheng Xiaodie's arm and fiddled with it again.
Cheng Xiaodie was in so much pain that she had no strength left.
Every time when the pain made her want to faint, another wave of pain would wake her up again.
After a few breaths, Song Qingci restored Cheng Xiaodie's arms to their original state.
Apart from the pain, there is nothing wrong with me.
Cheng Xiaodie's hands were visibly getting better, and the maidservant beside her was relieved.
They helped their young lady to stand up.
Song Qingci pinched her chin and fed her a pill.
This time, Cheng Xiaodie didn't react much.
After doing all this, Song Qingci said quietly, "Miss Cheng, goodbye today."
After saying that, she took Yinxing and walked out first, followed by Shan Xi and Xiaoxi. Shan Yu still didn't react and was pulled away by Hongyun.
It was not until he left the Caijin Pavilion that Shan Xi panted and said, "Sister-in-law! You were really amazing just now!"
"But what if Miss Cheng goes back and complains?!"
Cheng Xiaodie has never been a kind person. After suffering such a big loss today, she will definitely complain when she returns home. Minister Cheng is not a person who is easy to talk to.
"Just sue me." Song Qingci said nonchalantly, "You need evidence to sue me. What evidence can Cheng Xiaodie produce?!"
"Her maid?! She is someone close to her and cannot be considered as a witness. Or will you testify for her?" She glanced at Shan Yu who was following behind.
"No, no, no! I won't testify for her." Shan Yu was stared at and quickly showed his loyalty. "I am from the general's mansion, how can I testify for her?"
"I hope you will always remember that you are from the General's Mansion!" Song Qingci said and turned his eyes away from her.
"But, she can't speak now." Shan Xi felt that in this situation, it didn't matter whether there were witnesses or not.
"Who said she can't speak now?" Song Qingci asked back.
"Could it be that the last pill is the antidote?!" Shan Xi immediately remembered that before they left, her sister-in-law fed Cheng Xiaodie another pill.
"Smart." Song Qingci gave Shan Xi a thumbs up.
"Then, her hand..." Shan Yu didn't know why he spoke at this time.
"What happened to her hand?" Song Qingci's familiarity with the human skeleton meant that she would not leave any marks.
"Nothing, nothing." Shan Yu didn't dare to speak.
Just then, their carriage arrived.
Before Song Qingci got on the car, he glanced at Shan Yu and said, "After you get back, you'd better know what to say and what not to say." After that, he stopped looking at her and went into the car.
Shan Yu came here by himself in a carriage, so it was natural for him to go back by himself in a carriage as well.
She kept in mind the warning Song Qingci gave her before he left.
She was really scared, and she had been there more than once.
The poison made her throat hoarse, and she couldn't even shout. All her joints were beaten. Thinking of Cheng Xiaodie's expression, she couldn't help but shudder.
From now on, it’s better to stay away from this sister-in-law.
It is said that after Cheng Xiaodie returned home from Caijin Pavilion, she did go to her mother to complain.
When she was on the road, she found that she could speak again. It seemed that Song Qingci didn't dare to do anything to her.
After returning home, she told her mother what Song Qingci had done to her, exaggerating it.
Cheng Xiaodie is the second daughter of the Shangshu Mansion, but she is also the legitimate daughter, and her mother is the original legitimate wife. She is the mistress of the Shangshu Mansion.
Her elder sister is already married and currently lives in the mansion. She is her mother's most beloved daughter.
After hearing her daughter's crying, Cheng Shangshu's wife, Wang, was filled with anger.
It was just a general's mansion, yet they dared to torture and humiliate her daughter like this! Wang, furious, went straight to Cheng Shangshu, who had been dismissed from his post, and told her husband what she had heard from her daughter, reworked it herself, and told her husband.
"You must make the decision for your daughter! The general's mansion is going too far!" Wang concluded her words.
"Where's Xiaodie? Where is she?" Minister Cheng did not respond to his wife's question, but instead asked about his daughter's whereabouts.
"Xiaodie has suffered so much, of course she should rest in her own courtyard now!" Wang didn't understand why she asked her daughter at this time.
"You go back first. I'll go see Xiaodie." Minister Cheng stood up and left.
I know my wife to some extent, so I can only believe half of what she says.
So he wanted to go and ask his daughter in person what was going on.
The General's Mansion has been keeping a very low profile in recent years. He couldn't believe that they would suddenly become so powerful.
There are still people from the General's Mansion at Qianfeng Pass. The garrison there needs food and fodder every day.
Are you really not afraid of facing yourself like this?!
