The Fake Heiress Turns Out to Be a True Tycoon! novel Chapter 1050

Chapter 1050: Chapter 1050: The Second Young Master Threw Up

Actually asking for money???

When Madam Liao handed over the silver and left, her expression was somewhat complex.

Setting aside whether fifty taels is expensive or not, mainly, she’s been with the Lady for such a long time, none of the masters have ever directly asked her for money.

Even if they did ask, it’s usually just given openly, not quoted directly like this.

Inwardly, she sighed that this one indeed came from the countryside, not understanding the rules of a large family estate.

But at least the other party saved her grandson, so she handed over the money.

Unexpectedly, her daughter-in-law showed an expression of encountering a swindler upon hearing fifty taels were spent, even wanting to confront Lily Phoenix, only to be stopped by Madam Liao.

Knowing the other party genuinely has skills, even if she seems petty, Madam Liao wouldn’t let her daughter-in-law continue to offend her.

She sent them off with the child and hurried to report to Lady Phoenix.

These days, Lily is not someone you can easily meddle with.

Madam Liao rushed back to the main courtyard, only to be told that the second young master had fallen ill, and the Lady was with him.

Thus, she hurried to the South Courtyard where the second young master was.

Upon arrival, the South Courtyard was in chaos, maidservants and elderly attendants knelt outside, while Lady Phoenix and Edith Phoenix were inside, and Jordan Phoenix was losing his temper.

"These servants are vile! Delivering spoiled breakfast to me! Making me... ugh... Take them away, especially those in the kitchen, and beat them with planks! Ugh..."

Madam Liao entered and inquired, only then realizing the second young master was upset and didn’t eat last night, woke hungry this morning, but as soon as he ate, he threw up everything.

He insisted the food was spoiled, rotten.

And then the kitchen manager was crying out,

"Second young master, you’re wronged, the food we delivered was the freshest, how could it be rotten? Your maid, Fragrant Pearl, tried it earlier; the food was all fine."

"Are you doubting the young master lies? Ugh..."

Jordan Phoenix had vomited since morning, expelling the little that was leftover from yesterday, now unable to keep anything down, his face pale and strained.

"I’m telling you it’s spoiled! It’s spoiled! Even this medicine is spoiled!"

Madam Liao finally understood what had happened, feeling inexplicably puzzled.

Inside, the household doctor had examined the food multiple times, confirming it wasn’t spoiled or rotten, suspecting an issue with the second young master’s taste.

Yet, whether it was anti-nausea soup or pills, anything consumed would end up being vomited, the doctor puzzled at the situation.

The doctor dared not experiment further, pondered, then suggested,

"It is unsuitable for the second young master to eat now, he should have acupuncture to stop vomiting, and fast for a day, see if his condition improves..."

Initially, Madam Liao didn’t think much, but upon hearing about the fasting suggestion, something clicked abruptly in her mind.

An idea struck her unexpectedly.

Yesterday, when Lily displayed her prowess, Madam Liao was present, remembering the second young master saying fasting for three days is no big deal, and Lily’s reaction at the time...

The more she thought, the more her scalp tingled, looking at the second young master’s current predicament, Madam Liao possibly deduced the truth.

She hesitated whether to inform the Lady about Lily’s magical abilities, but Lady Phoenix had already noticed her.

Recalling what she had tasked her with today, she inquired about the results during Jordan’s acupuncture session.

Madam Liao, connecting the second young master’s anomaly to Lily’s trickery, figured that if she spoke, the Lady would surely deduce it too.

But not speaking wasn’t an option.
