When the little eunuch saw Chu Qiao tidying up obediently, he looked at Master Chong flatteringly.
"Sir, can I ask this slave to bring you some more food later?"
"No, let her go back to rest. I'm not hungry." After saying that, he turned around, walked back to the desk, sat in the chair, picked up the pen calmly, and started writing.
Seeing Master Chong's expression of displeasure, the little eunuch did not dare to have another affair. He whispered to Chu Qiao to clean up, then respectfully withdrew and turned around to leave.
Chu Qiao knelt on the ground, packing the lunch box, picking up the broken porcelain bit by bit, and carefully wiping the ground. Occasionally, she would secretly look up and see that the man was still sitting there, writing
What are you talking about? Is he really not hungry anymore, or is he trying to excuse Chu Qiao?
Speaking of which, it's all thanks to him today, otherwise I would have had to eat this meal anyway.
While wiping the floor, she was thinking that now was a great opportunity. She should beg him and let him find a way to get her to come to the Taiyuan Hospital. It seemed that this should not be difficult for him.
But another question rushed into Chu Qiao's mind. His surname was Chong.
Chu Qiao took a deep breath, wiped the floor, stood up slowly, held the lunch box in both hands, turned to walk out, but thought about it and backed away.
"Do you have anything else?" He stopped writing and looked over with raised eyebrows.
"I……"
Chu Qiao's hand tightly grasped the lunch box, and she moved on her toes, then moved again. She finally mustered up the courage to ask a question that even surprised her.
"May I have your name?"
After asking, Chu Qiao felt that she was so stupid. Why was she so interested in his name? It seemed that she should beg him to let her enter the Taiyuan Hospital. This was the main purpose of her coming to the palace.
However, she really wanted to know his name.
Master Chong raised his eyebrows slightly after hearing Chu Qiao's question. He did not answer her immediately, but showed a puzzled look. There was no maid in the palace who dared to ask the master's name directly. She was a
Exception, it was as if he was extremely shocked when she revealed the secret of mountain spring water.
When Chu Qiao saw Master Chong did not answer her question, but stared at her silently, she immediately felt uneasy and stepped back. This question was too abrupt. As a little palace maid, she was asking for trouble.
"Sir, I'd better leave."
After saying these words, Chu Qiao turned around quickly and hurriedly ran out of the door. She was annoyed, nervous, and even a little embarrassed? She actually suspected that he was the sickly man? This is simply too ridiculous. Could it be that the surname
Master Chong must be a member of the Chong family in the capital. Besides, this man looks strong and strong, and does not look sick at all. She is overly worried.
But just as Chu Qiao stepped out of the imperial pharmacy door, a man's gentle voice came from behind.
"Chong Xi Mo."
Just these three words struck Chu Qiao's back like thunder. She stepped forward and stood frozen on the threshold. He turned out to be Chong Ximo, the one who was engaged and then broke off the engagement to her. He almost became her.
Husband's man.
Chu Qiao was shocked!
They had been engaged for two years, and heard his name being mentioned for two years. Until more than a month ago, when their engagement was approaching, and she was about to marry into the Chong family as a bride, she suddenly encountered a misfortune, and her uncle was killed.
He Niang was kicked out of the house, and when she was at her lowest, she received a letter of divorce from the Chong family.
Chu Qiao felt like her breathing was about to stop. She was in a daze as to how she walked out and how she left the hospital.
Back in the imperial dining room, she stood in front of the case again, cutting vegetables for a while. Perhaps she was distracted, and actually cut her finger with the knife, and blood immediately flowed out.
"ah……"
Chu Qiao exclaimed and hurriedly backed away. Soon, Mao Daqiu's voice rang out roughly.
"Go, go, it's really useless."
He came up and pinched Chu Qiao's finger, squeezed the blood, and then put her hand to her lips wantonly, about to suck her.
"Hey, you!"
Chu Qiao became angry all of a sudden. She took her hand out and looked at Mao Daqiu displeased. She had already tolerated him once. Did he go a little too far this time?
Unexpectedly, Mao Daqiu burst into laughter.
"I'm just cleaning your wound."
"No, you don't need to." Chu Qiao swore that if he dared to do anything wrong again, she would definitely punch him out. Even if she couldn't knock this guy out, she would let him know that Miss Chu Fourth was not someone to be trifled with.
"Don't take yourself too seriously. No matter how beautiful you are, you are just a palace daughter. Do you really think that any minister will marry you home? It's a joke. It's just a dream. Why don't you take advantage of me to treat you well and think about it?
Thinking."
Mao Daqiu glanced coldly at Chu Qiao, then looked at Chu Qiao's chest and began to ponder it with his eyes.
Chu Qiao was extremely frightened. Although this big hairy guy was excellent at cooking, he was still a lecher. He had lusted after her. It seemed that she would have to be careful about this guy in the imperial kitchen in the future.
"Go back, pack your bags, and come back tomorrow..." Mao Daqiu laughed treacherously. This guy was sure that Chu Qiao was his, and he was quite concerned.
Chu Qiao hurriedly stepped away, pinched her fingers and ran out of the imperial dining room. Standing outside the dining room door, her heart was still beating. She was not thinking about Mao Daqiu's lust and shamelessness, but Chong Ximo.
.
What to do now?
Although Chong Ximo still doesn't know Chu Qiao's true identity, it is true that he has broken off the engagement with her. Does she really want to beg that man to help her enter Tai Hospital?
Chu Qiao was a little unsure. She returned to her residence, wrapped her fingers, and sat blankly by the bed.
A person wants face and a tree wants skin. She would not seek help from Chong Ximo under any circumstances. Moreover, entering Taiyin Hospital means that she may meet him often. Can she be relaxed and comfortable? What if he discovers her
Due to their status, neither she nor her mother could escape death.
We must be careful about this matter, plan it over the long term, and not be too hasty.
Chu Qiao took a deep breath and lay down by the bed. She really found out that once she entered the palace, she thought she could easily enter the imperial hospital and investigate the truth. However, she didn't expect that things were getting more and more complicated. It seemed that the road to the imperial dining room was not yet available.
Break, she must go on here.
Chu Qiao sat up, untied the baggage, and took out the dark red cloak, which was left to her by her savior on a snowy night. She searched hard but could not find her benefactor, but she saw Chong Ximo.
What a twist of fate.
However, a question flashed in Chu Qiao's mind instantly, why wasn't Chong Ximo a sick man? Wasn't he so sick that he almost coughed out his lungs?
