Miss Truth-Chapter 491 - 322: Suspicion_3

No matter what, Lady Dongyang was the legitimate senior wife, and Xiaoshi was originally from the Imperial Family. Had Xiliang not fallen, she would now be the Empress. The Emperor had only recently passed away, and although no one would continue to treat her exactly as they would an Empress, her current status in the clan was still higher than the other ladies, so proud figures like Lady Dugu would still show her some courtesy.

While everyone was chatting intermittently, a maid hurriedly came in, bowed to Lady Dugu, and said, "Old Lady, the Clan Leader and the Duke have asked for your presence."

The room fell silent all at once, and Lady Dugu was also taken aback. What matter required her presence alone?

Thinking this, she did not hesitate nor ask what it was about but simply let her personal maid support her, "You all continue chatting, I’ll go and see."

Ran Yan hesitated for a moment, then got up and followed.

Just as they left the door, the maid whispered to Lady Dugu, "Old Lady, Jiulang has called back those suspicious people. On the Lady of Daning County’s carriage, they found the old lady’s golden silk nanmu box. The county lady said it was you who asked her to send it to the palace."

"What?" Lady Dugu was shocked, her usually dignified expression somewhat out of control, "I have no quarrel with her, why would she frame me!"

"This slave does not know, just wanted to give the Old Lady a heads up," the maid said as she saw Lady Dugu stop in her tracks, cautiously urging her, "Old Lady, let’s hurry over."

It is crucial to update everyone on my difficult situation recently. First, I had a car accident a while ago and my foot hasn’t healed yet.

Secondly, my wisdom tooth started inflaming yesterday, causing my neck and jaw’s lymph nodes to swell and hurt terribly, forcing me to visit the oral medicine department at the hospital. That day, a doctor was off, so I waited from nine in the morning until noon before I barely made it through the line, and the doctor then prescribed an IV.

Looking in my wallet, I only had one hundred yuan, thinking that it wouldn’t be enough considering how expensive hospitals are nowadays, so I ran to the nearby ATM to withdraw money. Unfortunately, that ATM malfunctioned without dispensing cash, only spitting out a fault receipt. Under the scorching sun, bearing the pain in my teeth, I stumbled to the bank to resolve this issue, then planned to withdraw money from another ATM nearby.

Darn, all three ATMs were out of cash! Out of six ATMs, three were broken, and the remaining ones had very long lines, so I had no choice but to queue up grudgingly. After an agonizing ten minutes, and just three more people before me, I watched the machine in front of me break down! It even swallowed the card of the guy in front of me!

So I had to line up at another one, and finally withdrew five hundred yuan.

Then, worried about the IV taking too long and coming home too late, I skipped lunch and rushed back to the hospital. Then it turned out the fee was only fifty yuan! Fifty yuan!!!! I was not delighted at all!

Since I hadn’t eaten lunch, I felt a bit dizzy while on the IV and later realized I was cold and asked a nurse for a thermometer, only to find out I had developed a fever, taking medication while continuing the IV... After hanging one and a half bags, due to skipping lunch, I started having stomach pains.

Enduring until the IV was finished, by three-thirty in the afternoon, all the restaurants had stopped serving! I had no choice but to eat at KFC. I waited twenty minutes for the bus and it didn’t show up, feeling awful all over, I decided to take a taxi. Before I made up my mind, I watched empty cabs pass by, but when I decided to hail one, damn it, not a single one appeared!

Unable to bear it, I hailed a motorcycle taxi, but the uncle drove so slowly. After a while, I just watched as the bus passed by majestically beside me.

Then, because the food was too greasy and I had caught a chill, I went home and vomited until the world went dark.

The doctor advised me to continue the IV today, but since I am on my period, which is said to be unsuitable for IV... today I can only endure the pains in my stomach, teeth, and foot... to contribute this mere Chapter to everyone. Don’t blame me, let me cry for a while. (To be continued. If you like this work, welcome to Qidian (qidian.com) to vote for the recommendation ticket or the monthly ticket.
