Unbridled Medical Expert Consort: Demon Prince, Be Good

Chapter 85b: Who’s Slapping Whose Face?

Luo Cheng allowed this vixen to not have to pay her respects? He even said that she’s tired, so she should rest well?

Hearing these several sentences made Wang Xue Ru nearly go insane. This girl was clearly showing off.

Without waiting for her to speak, Luo Qing Luan smiled again, “Hongyu, it’s been hard on you. If you can give birth to a son for my father, then that would really be great.”

“Qing Luan, look at what you’re saying.” Hongyu bashfully lowered her head.

Luo Qing Luan again spoke indifferently to Wang Xue Ru, “Father’s Concubine, don’t blame Hongyu anymore. She served Father so is naturally tired. Moreover, Father even hopes that she’ll be able to carry on Luo family’s ancestral line soon. What discipline can paying some respects amount to. Forget it, no need. Father wouldn’t object to it.”

Object? That man with no conscience. The minute he saw a young, beautiful woman, his soul already flew away. How could he still have any objections? Wang Xue Ru clenched her hands tightly, no angry that her fingernails nearly dug into her flesh, but she was the most respected side madam. She had to maintain her composure in front of these three women. She absolutely wouldn’t reveal the slightest bit of a flaw.

Turning her eyes, she stared at Zhangzhi and Songzhi, saying in a cold voice, “Then how about the two of you. You guys didn’t serve the master last night. Don’t tell me that you’re also tired? Did I allow the two of you to sit down? Such bad manners. Can it be that you want to taste our General’s Mansion’s family discipline?”

“Not honoring the mistress of the family, a violator to be caned twenty times.” Dujuan immediately chimed in.

Thinking that the two of them would be so scared that they would be at a loss, Wang Xue Ru was ready to watch their expressions as they lost their heads out of fear. But she waited for some time, yet Zhangzhi and Songzhi surprisingly didn’t even say anything, not to mention standing up to admit their mistakes.

The two of them seemed as if they didn’t hear anything and were even smiling behind Luo Qing Luan as they whispered softly into each other’s ears. They totally didn’t pay any attention to her.

“Zhangzhi, Songzhi!” Wang Xue Ru was practically steaming. She couldn’t help but yell loudly.

Appearing as if they just heard, Zhangzhi and Songzhi finally stopped whispering. They looked at her, smiling from ear to ear. “Did Elder Sister call us? What’s the matter?”

“You guys......you guys......” Such undisguised disrespect, how could Wang Xue Ru endure it. Immediately slapping the table, she shouted, “What nerve. You guys are merely some minor concubines that the master took in, nothing more, yet you actually don’t even listen to me? Are you guys thinking of rebelling?”

“Eh? What’s Elder Sister saying?” Zhangzhi didn’t get angry, appearing to be totally baffled, “We’re minor concubines who were married off to the master only yesterday, so how can Elder Sister say those things of us? Originally, when Elder Sister first joined this household, weren’t you also a minor concubine, the same as us?”

“Indeed, even though Elder Sister is now a side madam at the General’s Mansion, after all is said and done, you’re just like us, starting out as a minor concubine, what’s there to look down on us for?” Songzhi by her side also responded indifferently. “Moreover, it seems that there’s also nothing great about Elder Sister’s family. Presently, it has already suffered a reversal of fortune, only a younger brother is left doing some small business in Guangping City. Compared with our maiden families, heh heh......Younger Sister is new here, so I won’t say too much to avoid Elder Sister from becoming unhappy.”

Zhangzhi and Songzhi successively pressed from either side, speech concealing sarcasm, sparing no politeness, irritating Wang Xue Ru to the point she almost flew into a rage.

Smashing the teacup in front of her, she nearly jumped up, “You guys......you guys are totally impudent, you actually dare to mock me......Qing Luan, are these the kind of minor concubines you’ve arranged for your father? Where did you find these bad mannered uneducated barbaric women?”

Luo Qing Luan seemed startled and replied, “Father’s Concubine, Zhangzhi and Songzhi certainly have nothing to do with me. I’m only acquainted with Hongyu. They’re people who the Prince of Chu helped father find. It seems that Zhangzhi.....oh right, Zhangzhi, where’s your maiden home, I can’t remember.”

Zhangzhi immediately respectfully answered, “In reply to Miss Luo’s question, this servant’s father is Yuan Lin prefecture’s prefectural magistrate, Zhang Junyi. I’m a concubine’s daughter. There are two older brothers above me as well as an older sister.”

Without waiting for Luo Qing Luan to ask her, Songzhi also answered softly, “Miss Luo, this servant lives a bit closer than Elder Sister Zhang, at the capital. My father is the minister of Honglu Temple, Song Huaiyuan. My mother is his third wife. I also have an older brother as well as two younger sisters.”

Wang Xue Ru already stiffened from head to toe, completely stupefied. Her brain was a big blank space. She even thought that she had Zhangzhi and Songzhi in the palm of her hands, but never could have thought that their maiden homes surprisingly were......how could she compare with them? If it wasn’t for the fact that they were born of concubines, and if it wasn’t for the Prince of Chu’s recommendation, it’s likely that Luo Cheng simply could forget about taking these two women as his concubines, right?

And she even believed just now that she could lean on her position as the side madam to suppress those two. She never imagined that the two of them were basically just not putting on airs. It turned out that they felt it was beneath their dignity to mind her. Besides that Hongyu who came from Immortal Dream Tower, she simply couldn’t compare to them. But now that Luo Cheng had been enchanted by Hongyu, and even hoped that Hongyu would birth a son, she’s afraid that her position was no longer safe!

At the beginning, she even wanted to properly face slap them, and give Luo Qing Luan a lesson on lowering her face. Who could have imagined, however, that she could distinctly feel a crisis coming on. If she still couldn’t think of a way to save the situation, once they really gave Luo Cheng a son, she absolutely would be ruthlessly abandoned by Luo Cheng in the end.

Alarmed into sweating bullets from head to toe, she didn’t even realize when Luo Qing Luan and the Hongyu group started to leave.

She sat there stunned for a long time. After so many years, Wang Xue Ru could feel a sense of crisis yet again.

That won’t do. She absolutely couldn’t just sit and wait for death! She’s going to visit Fifth Prince’s mansion to look for her only trustworthy daughter, Luo Qing Shuang and consult with her!
