Not The Sideburns I Know Chapter 101

Second Mistress was worried about Zhao Yuanzhen the night before, and the next day at noon, Zhao Yuanzhen called without saying anything. Ryan was very active in answering the phone now, for fear that it was a call from the small mansion, and Second Mistress would be suspicious if she heard it. As soon as she picked up the phone and heard Zhao Yuanzhen's voice, Ryan smiled before she spoke, and said in Shanghai dialect: "It's you! How are you feeling recently? Is the medicine working?" After listening for a while, she smiled and said: "You are really a bit conscienceless. It's rare for you to find me once in a thousand years, just to use me!" It turned out that the western medicine she asked Ryan to bring from abroad was stuck on the road. The situation inside and outside was chaotic, and western medicine was a very sensitive thing. In fact, there were only a few bottles in total, and she kept them all for her own use, so she was particularly anxious to wait.

The second wife came out of the wing room holding her hair bun. Ryan didn't have time to chat with Zhao Yuanzhen, and hurriedly said, "I'll call and ask later. You can ask the servants to look after the dog for the next two days. Wait for the door, I'll have someone send it to you as soon as possible. Is everything okay? If not, I'll hang up. Take care of yourself!"

When Second Grandma heard Ryan speaking in his hometown dialect, and then heard the words "dog", "western medicine", "body", and the faint female voice in the microphone, she knew who was on the other end. She grabbed the phone and stared at Ryan, insisting on talking on the phone. Ryan had no choice but to shout over there: "Wait a minute, my wife wants to talk to you."

Second Mistress prepared herself mentally, then smiled cautiously and said, "Hello, Miss Zhao, I'm Mrs. Cheng. How are you, are you feeling well recently?" For anyone who knows Zhao Yuanzhen, asking about her health is a natural opening statement. Zhao Yuanzhen was probably stunned on the other end. Although there were conflicts between her and Second Mistress, they never quarreled. Ryan heard Zhao Yuanzhen's voice change in the receiver, which was extremely hypocritical, and she tried her best to show that she was turning the corner. Second Mistress then started a cordial conversation with her, seemingly talking about this and that, but in fact she was secretly asking about her current life and financial situation. As she expected, Zhao Yuanzhen was indeed the same as she had been for ten years, and everything was roughly the same as when they left Shanghai, with no improvement, so she said softly, "It's not cold in Beiping now. If Miss Zhao feels better, come to Beiping to play. It's very convenient to live in our house. Let Ryan accompany you to go around and relieve your boredom."

Ryan looked at the Second Mistress, but she turned away and didn't look at him.
