The Ace Bigshot Becomes A Farmgirl

Zhao Xi was speechless. Just for a shop?

This Miss Cen is clearly trying to bribe you with the shop and humiliate you. When did you become so foolish?

Zhao Xi gave her a look, Shu Yu massaged her forehead and explained, ”Alright, I know what kind of person Young Madam Zhou is. Brother-in-law, give her a pulse diagnosis first; Young Madam Zhou wants to check on issues regarding offspring.”

Offspring?

Zhao Xi pondered. He heard that the girl from the Marquis Yongchang Mansion married into Lord Zhou’s family, and it should have been four years now.

Could it be that they still don’t have children?

Even such a difficult condition for her to speak about has been told to Shu Yu, it seems she’s not here to humiliate her.

Zhao Xi became serious, sat opposite Cen Yi, and placed the pulse pillow in front of her. ”Let me see your hand.”

Cen Yi felt anxious, hesitantly placing her wrist onto it.

At this point, Madam Hou knew she wasn’t suitable to be here, so she simply went out to chat with Shuyou, helping to look after the two children and catch up.

As a result, only Shu Yu, Cen Yi, and Zhao Xi were left in the living room.

Zhao Xi diagnosed for a moment, slightly furrowing his brow, ”The other hand.”

Cen Yi quickly switched hands.

Zhao Xi took the pulse for some time, his brow tightening even further.

He also checked Cen Yi’s tongue and inquired about her daily sleep and diet conditions.

After understanding everything, Zhao Xi said in a low voice, ”Your body indeed has some issues.”

”What is it?”

”External toxin infection.”

Having been around Zhao Xi and the others for so long, Shu Yu also understood what this external toxin infection meant; in modern terms, it’s an inflammation.

Cen Yi probably has a gynecological inflammation, but it’s unclear which aspect it pertains to.

Cen Yi didn’t quite understand, ”What does that mean?”

Zhao Xi initially didn’t want to be too explicit, but if he didn’t emphasize the severity, she might not take it seriously and make a mistake again.

So he glanced at Shu Yu, who raised her hand, ”I understand, I’ll leave, you can talk slowly.”

Shu Yu left the living room, glanced back, and saw Zhao Xi’s lips move.

Whatever he said, Cen Yi’s expression instantly became somewhat... embarrassed, followed by distress, and then pale. In the blink of an eye, the change was not a small one.

Shu Yu retracted her gaze, straightforwardly joining Shuyou and Madam Hou for a chat.

Madam Hou glanced at her and whispered, ”I suddenly realize the rumors outside can’t be trusted?”

”Hmm?”

Madam Hou nodded towards the living room, ”For example, that young lady of the Marquis Yongchang Mansion, the rumors say she’s arrogant and overbearing because of her family’s favor, being rude and unreasonable. But now having met her, it seems she’s actually... quite naive.”

Shu Yu chuckled, ”Aunt Hou means she seems not very bright, right?”

Madam Hou coughed lightly, awkwardly laughing, ”A bit.” More accurately, this Cen Yi is actually a bit foolish.

She came to Shu Yu for a deal, and right at the start, she exposed all her cards.

To put it nicely, it’s sincerity; to say it harshly, it’s stupidity.

Luckily, Yu has a good nature and character; if she had encountered someone more cunning and narrow-minded and considering Cen Yi once had an interest in Meng Yunzheng, it could have easily led to her ruin.

Shu Yu laughed, ”She isn’t smart, but the nanny beside her is quite clever.”

Otherwise, with Cen Yi’s way of doing things, if not for this nanny, she would have been devoured without any bones left a long time ago.
