Chapter 124: The 3rd Room and 2 People Under Disguise House Arrest

They, the Ning Wang Mansion, saved Xu Qinghe, and Madam Cui said she wanted to cure the old lady.

Mother Qiu was just a servant, and she just followed them to run errands, but they gave her such a good thing. It seemed that they recognized Mother Qiu's efforts.

At this time, Princess Ning and the Second Lady had made up their minds that they had to be on good terms with Lady Cui's family and must not offend them.

"Princess and Second Madam, please come in. The old lady is waiting."

At this moment, Nanny Lin came out with a smile and welcomed all the dazed people into the house where the old princess lived.

"What's the matter? Are you unhappy to see that I have recovered from my illness?"

The old princess had already washed up and put on a set of fresh-looking clothes. She was being supported by two little girls on her left and right, and was walking slowly in the room.

"What are you talking about, mother-in-law? We are so happy that you can get better."

Princess Ning finally came to her senses and quickly took a few steps forward and took the old princess from the little girl's hands.

"Mother-in-law is in much better spirits today. It seems that Madam Cui is really very powerful."

The second wife also hurried over and held the old princess's other arm. The two of them sent all the little maids away and supported the old princess as she walked slowly around the room several times.

"Mother has just recovered a little, so she must not get tired. She should go back to bed and lie down, okay?"

Noticing that the old lady was breathing a little harder, Princess Ning suggested.

"Sister-in-law is right. If you still want to walk after taking a rest, your daughter-in-law will help you up."

The second wife also echoed, and when she saw the old lady nodded in agreement, she followed Princess Ning, and the two of them worked together to help the old lady to the bed.

"Mom, are you sweating? Let your daughter-in-law wipe it for you..."

The second wife casually pulled off her handkerchief and was about to wipe the old princess' sweat, but when the handkerchief was raised to the old princess' forehead, she suddenly stopped and her eyes scanned her face.

The old princess's face, which was full of wrinkles in the past, now only had some shallow fine lines left, and the age spots had also faded a lot. Only a few larger spots could be seen now, and the smaller ones had all disappeared.

Even the loose skin suddenly became much tighter, not to mention the complexion which had improved a lot, which shocked the Second Madam and Princess Ning.

The two looked at each other. With the example of Mother Qiu in mind, they understood the change in the old princess more clearly.

"Mother, when I saw you today, you seemed to have suddenly become ten years younger..."

The second wife came back to her senses and continued to wipe the old princess' sweat with a handkerchief. She also asked calmly whether Madam Cui had also given her the same pill.

"Maybe I'm feeling more energetic now that I've recovered from my illness. I've been lying in bed these days and I feel like I'm almost useless..."

The old princess answered as if nothing had happened. Her little granddaughter had told her last night that after drinking the potion, her body would feel much better. She only needed to drink it twice more and she would be guaranteed to become much younger.

The Second Lady and Princess Ning were so itchy that they wished Yuxiu and Cui were standing in front of them so that they could ask for a pill to try.

However, although they think so, these noble ladies will never do such a thing. Even if they want it in their hearts, they can only say it indirectly at most. How can they have the nerve to ask for it directly?

"I heard that something happened in the third room again last night?"

Just when the two of them had different thoughts, the old princess' eyes flickered and she asked quietly.

She heard early in the morning that Qin had fallen into the toilet. She had to use a lot of effort to force herself not to laugh out loud.

"It's not a big deal. It was probably because it was dark and my third sister-in-law wasn't paying attention, so she accidentally slipped. Although it was a bit dirty, fortunately no one was injured. It can be considered a blessing in disguise."

Since the old princess already knew about this, Princess Ning did not hide it and told her what happened last night.

You know, although the old princess didn't like the two people from the third room, she still treated them equally on the surface and didn't do anything to favor one over the other, so Princess Ning couldn't say anything bad about Qin.

"That child is so unlucky. How could he be so careless?"

The old princess sighed, thought for a moment and said:

"She has suffered a lot, and the third child is often in poor health. It would be better to let them rest in their rooms these days and not bother them with things outside."

She looked at Princess Ning and said calmly:

"You arrange for some people to look after them. Make sure they are well taken care of in the house. They should stay in bed for at least ten days or half a month. It won't be too late for them to walk around later..."

Does this mean that they will lock the person up in the yard and not let him out for ten days?

Princess Ning didn't dare ask any more questions and simply nodded in agreement.

No matter what the reason was, she felt relieved when she thought that she wouldn't have to see the disgusting couple in the third room for more than ten days.

"Don't worry, mother. Your daughter-in-law will definitely help your sister-in-law to look after them and make sure they are obedient and fully recover before coming out."

The second wife was even happier, her mouth was almost stretched to her ears due to her smile, which was really disgusting to watch.

After the two came out of Manfu Hall, Princess Ning really handed the matter over to the Second Lady because she had to take care of some chores in the mansion. She also asked Mother Qiu to call a dozen strong maids to go with her to serve.

Xu Jinran and Qin didn't know at this time that they were put under house arrest in disguise before they had time to do anything after getting up early in the morning.

However, the people brought by the second wife only guarded outside the yard and did not allow anyone from the third room to enter or leave. Anyway, food and drinks were delivered by the big kitchen outside, and she did not care about other things in the yard. She just asked someone to take a strong long stick and insert it into the two brass door knockers on the yard door, and then closed the door tightly.

"What do they mean? Did they discover something?"

When Qin heard the news, she ran to Xu Jinran's room with a messy head, without even having time to comb her hair, wanting to ask him for advice.

"Don't keep talking nonsense. What can you find out? What can we not show to others?"

Xu Jinran glared at her. This woman just couldn’t hide anything. If someone heard this, wouldn’t it be a clear case of trying to cover up one’s own fault?

"Then why are they suddenly locking us up? Ah!"

Qin felt a little guilty when her man glared at her, so she lowered her voice obediently. Just as she was about to ask more questions, her eyes swept around the room and she suddenly screamed.
