Chapter 462 General Cao is shocked
"What did you say? How is this possible!"
In the camp outside the capital, General Cao, who was sitting behind a desk, suddenly stood up and shouted.
Because he stood up in too haste, the table was knocked over and the things on the table rolled all over the floor. He had no time to care about anything else and strode up to the guard who was kneeling on one knee with his head lowered.
"General, several of our subordinates saw it with their own eyes! Madam's illness was mostly healed overnight!"
The guard stood up and reported respectfully that this person was the one who left Zhao Ting'er's courtyard.
Seeing that he looked so confident, General Cao paced in the tent, thinking.
"Hurry up and take my card to ask the imperial physician who has been treating Madam to tell him about Madam's condition. I will go back to the mansion to check first!"
After thinking for a moment, General Cao whispered.
"Yes, my subordinates are resigning!"
The guards quickly took orders and left.
"Come here, prepare the horses and return home!"
General Cao strode out of the tent and gave instructions to his guards.
After his personal guards brought the horses over, he immediately jumped on the horses and galloped away.
"Madam, this is the maid I have chosen for you. If you like her, I will keep her."
At this time, in the general's mansion, Madam Zhao brought eight maids including Xi Que back to the courtyard where Zhao Ting'er was. She asked the maids to line up in front of Zhao Ting'er and let her take a look.
Seeing that none of the maids were particularly good-looking, Zhao Ting'er nodded with satisfaction, and Nanny Zhao stood beside her and introduced them to her in a low voice.
"Okay, everyone stay here. Aunt Zhao has explained the rules of my room to you. Be more responsible and do your job well!"
Zhao Ting'er sat there and said lightly.
"Yes, ma'am!"
The maids knelt down and saluted respectfully.
"Okay, do what I just arranged, and be quick!"
Receiving Zhao Ting'er's look, Nanny Zhao gave instructions to the eight maids.
After the maids left, Zhao Ting'er played with her nails and asked, "Have those maids been dealt with?"
"Madam, those maids were sold off by the master a few days ago. I heard they were sold to the bitter and cold border."
Nanny Zhao leaned close to Zhao Ting'er's ear and whispered back.
Hearing this, Zhao Ting'er paused. While she was thinking, the voice of the guard came from the gate of the yard.
"Meet the general!"
"Get up!"
Hearing that her husband had returned, Zhao Ting'er hurriedly got up and went out to greet him.
"Ma'am, you are really much better!"
General Cao could not hide his shock when he saw Zhao Ting'er.
"Master, look, the spots on my face have completely disappeared!"
Zhao Ting'er happily took General Cao's hand and let him touch her cheek.
Ever since she fell ill, her appearance and health had been getting worse day by day. She was very worried that he would despise her. Now that her appearance had almost recovered, she wanted him to have a good look at her.
"Husband, aren't you happy for me?"
Zhao Ting'er saw that there was only shock on General Cao's face, and no joy, so she frowned and asked.
Hearing this, General Cao patted her hands and comforted her, "Madam is in good health, how can I not be happy? It's just that such a big change overnight is against common sense. I am really shocked and a little worried. I have ordered someone to invite the imperial physician. I will be relieved only after the imperial physician has examined me."
"Don't worry, my husband. I feel fine now. My appearance has mostly recovered, and I have strength in my body!"
Zhao Ting'er smiled happily after hearing what General Cao said, and they went back to the room and sat down together.
"Master, Madam, please have some tea!"
As soon as they sat down, Xi Que and another little maid came over with tea cups.
When he saw the magpie, General Cao's eyes flashed slightly.
"Madam, are these your newly promoted maids?"
He asked, pointing at the maid waiting there.
"Yes, Madam Zhao just went to select them. Speaking of maids, Master, I heard that the maids in my room were sold by you?"
Zhao Ting'er looked at General Cao and asked tentatively.
"Yes, they were sold to the border. Since they don't serve Madam wholeheartedly and even make Madam angry, there is no point in keeping them!"
General Cao lowered his eyes slightly, took a sip of tea and said.
It seemed like he didn't care about those maids.
"I sent those girls to clean the toilet, but they didn't tell the master anything about me, did they?"
Zhao Ting'er tightened her grip on the handkerchief and asked, looking at General Cao's expression.
"I was busy a few days ago and didn't go to send them off in person. The old housekeeper stuffed their mouths and sold them."
As soon as General Cao finished speaking, the old butler's voice was heard outside.
"Greetings, Master and Madam, the imperial physician is here!"
"Please come in quickly!"
Upon hearing this, General Cao hurriedly stood up and personally greeted the imperial physician.
"My wife's health has changed so much overnight. I'm really worried. I'd like you to take a good look at her!"
"Please, Imperial Physician, check my pulse!"
Zhao Ting'er then stood up, walked to the imperial physician and spoke politely.
The imperial physician had just treated Zhao Ting'er the day before, and was so shocked to see that her appearance and spirit had really recovered so much that he stood there in shock.
