In the evening of the next day, Shen Zangfeng came back. His face looked very tired. Wei Changying speculated that Mrs. Deng's condition was not optimistic. It was only Duanmu who invited Duanmu Xinmiao. If he immediately proposed to ask for Doctor Ji, it would appear that he was deliberately competing with his second sister-in-law.
What's more, even Duanmu Xinmiao, Ji Qubing's only disciple, didn't speak up for Mrs. Deng, and he didn't know how angry Ji Qubing was towards Mrs. Deng. Wei Changying felt that the Su family hadn't mentioned it yet. Maybe Mrs. Deng's condition was not as dangerous as he thought. There was no need for him to worry about it at the risk of offending a miracle doctor who had saved his father. Let’s put this matter off for a while—after all, she is just a grandmother, not a close relative of her parents.
The two of them had a meal, took a bath and changed clothes, and then returned to the inner room. Wei Changying asked, "How is grandma doing now?"
Shen Zangfeng said: "I'm very dizzy... The eighth lady of the Duanmu family went to see her and she said she couldn't be cured. Fortunately, with the honor of my second sister-in-law, I hurriedly went to seek advice from Divine Doctor Ji." He sighed again, "It's just that Divine Doctor Ji didn't treat her well." The Deng family has some grudges... I went there yesterday, but I haven't heard back yet. Maybe I haven't asked Doctor Ji to take action yet. "
Wei Changying speculated that his tone was not dissatisfied with Duanmu Xinmiao, so he wondered whether the Su family and Shen Zangfeng didn't know Duanmu Xinmiao's true attitude
Then he probed: "I heard that Miss Duanmuba is the only disciple of Divine Doctor Ji. She is deeply loved by the Divine Doctor. Do you think the Divine Doctor will give her face?"
Shen Zangfeng said: "Miss Duanmuba is very enthusiastic, but Doctor Ji has never treated the Deng family before, so she is a little embarrassed."
... Well, I kind of know Miss Duanmuba’s temperament. Wei Changying bit his lower lip, and suddenly felt that Duanmu Xinmiao was so eager for justice in person, but regarded human life as nothing in private... Why did he look so like Mr. Huang? Thinking back to what Mrs. Liu said last time, when Ji Qubing stayed at the Wei family for a short time, in order to steal some advice from him, her grandmother specially assigned the smartest people around her to serve. As a result, one of the group of maids ended up That's why Huang was favored by Ji Qubing and taught medical science for two years.
Could it be that... Ji Qubing likes this kind of disciple who is duplicitous, ruthless and even a little bit his own way?
This is so different from the famous domestic doctor who imagined hanging a pot to save lives and heal the wounded!
Shen Zangfeng took her silence as worry for Mrs. Deng. He touched her face and comforted her: "Although grandma is dizzy, she is in good spirits. It is expected that the Ji family's incident has been going on for so many years. Doctor Ji has It’s too late to think about it, but Miss Duanmuba can do it with some more persuasion.”
Wei Changying took his hand away speechlessly, thinking that the enthusiastic Miss Duanmuba in your heart may have forgotten your grandmother long ago! One more piece of advice... If Duanmu Xinmiao is really like the Huang family, even if she mentions Mrs. Deng, she must have said this: "What does the life and death of the old woman in the Deng family have to do with the disciple? When the Deng family forced the master, the disciple I remember it all! Master, please see that the disciple is filial... Is there any benefit from the master to reward the disciple?"
Or else, "Whether the old woman from the Deng family lives or dies is none of our master's and apprentice's business, but I don't know what the benefits will be if we save her? Has the master recently used the Su family or the Deng family? If so, , I am willing to do this work!”
Wei Changying said: "You didn't come back yesterday..."
"So you want to be a husband?" Shen Zangfeng smiled.
Wei Changying said hurriedly: "Second brother beat and scolded second sister-in-law yesterday!"
"Huh?" Shen Zangfeng was stunned and stopped. Wei Changying said: "It's such a big fuss. My eldest sister-in-law arrived first and I can't persuade her anymore! Fortunately, the fifth and sixth brothers were at home, so they were dragging me down. I stopped my second brother... On the day I served tea, I saw that my second brother was a very gentle person, but I didn't expect him to lose his temper so violently... "
Shen Zangfeng pondered for a moment and then asked: "What's the reason? Luqiao had a miscarriage?"
"Isn't that true?" Wei Changying pursed his lips and whispered, "I don't know who told the second brother that Luqiao's miscarriage was caused by the second sister-in-law. As a result, the second brother turned to the second sister-in-law..."
"Has the matter been found out now?" Shen Zangfeng asked again.
Wei Changying said: "Later, the fifth and sixth brothers forcibly dragged the second brother into the house to drink tea to calm the fire. My eldest sister-in-law and I accompanied the second sister-in-law to freshen up in the back. We separated for a long time to persuade the second brother, and then the second brother agreed to give her to the second sister-in-law. A chance to explain. But the second sister-in-law revealed that it was Lu Qiao who accidentally lost her body. In order to avoid being accused, she put the abortion pill in the tea she drank the next day and framed others! "
"Since it was an abortion drug found the day after a miscarriage, it is suspicious." Shen Zangfeng said calmly, "Everyone at home knows about her miscarriage. If someone harmed her, no matter how stupid they were, they would not be stupid enough to continue taking the drug. … If the fetus is gone, what else will happen?”
After a moment of pause, he muttered, "Shu Rou is seven years old, and the second brother still has no children, so he is inevitably a little anxious. The second sister-in-law has been wronged... When mother comes back, you can talk to her and let her comfort her. Second sister-in-law.”
Wei Changying said: "I know... you are tired too, let's sleep."
In the early morning of the next day, Wei Changying noticed Shen Zangfeng getting up in a daze. He suddenly remembered something and asked him in a vague voice: "Xiu Mu, are you okay this time?"
Shen Zangfeng just sat up and was about to leave the bed. He stopped when he heard the sound, inserted his hand between her black hair, slowly stroked it, and said with a smile: "Didn't I tell you to take you out to see the imperial capital?"
"Huh?" Wei Changying was confused for a moment, and then he remembered that he seemed to have promised this on the day he returned home. However, he was not curious about the imperial capital's style when he stared out of the car, but he misunderstood it, so he didn't take it to heart. superior. She didn't expect Shen Zangfeng to really remember it - she muttered, "I don't think you're in a hurry, Xiu Mu, please stay at home this time."
Shen Zangfeng said first: "Okay." Then he leaned down and asked curiously, "Why?"
"...I won't tell you!" Of course Wei Changying would not tell him the truth. He wanted to make up an excuse, but he didn't say hello in the past few days. Shen Zangfeng was considerate of her and tried to be as gentle as possible when he got up. She was used to it. I got up for the first time. Although I was awakened by this moment, I was really sleepy. My mind was in a state of confusion. After thinking for a long time, I couldn't come up with a decent excuse, so I simply said something shameless and fell back to sleep.
She seemed to hear Shen Zangfeng laughing and saying something, and then touched her face before leaving the tent to change clothes and freshen up.
At the beginning of the morning, Guard Chief Ying stood up and vaguely remembered that he had told Shen Zangfeng that he should stay at home that day, and Shen Zangfeng agreed, so he said to Mrs. Huang: "Send someone to tell my sister-in-law later. Let her take care of Miss Liu Shi with peace of mind."
Huang understood and went outside to ask Zhu Lan to deliver the message.
After a while, Zhu Lan came back with a bunch of money in his hand and said, "The young lady must reward this maid."
"Then just keep buying candies." Wei Changying smiled nonchalantly.
Zhu Lan heard this and said with a smile: "Mrs. Xie, but my servant is such an old man, so I don't want to buy candies!"
Mr. He happened to be nearby, so he scolded his niece: "Thank you, Mrs. Xie. Just thank Mrs. Xie. Why are you talking too much!"
Wei Changying stopped her and said with a smile: "Don't be upset, Aunt He, little Zhu Lan has grown up too. I remember that Zhu Lan was only seven years old when he came to my side. He spent the whole day thinking about eating sweets and snacks. Now, I no longer like to eat sweets, which is a good thing..."
Mrs. Huang joked: "Xiao Zhulan doesn't want to eat sweets, what do you want? But buy rouge gouache?"
"You have dressed yourself up with rouge and gouache. Are you going to show it to your beloved brother?" Qin Ge and Yan Ge looked at each other and understood.
Several people took turns to ridicule, making Zhu Lan, who was always sharp-tongued, completely unable to get in his words. He blushed with embarrassment, stuffed the money into his sleeves, hid behind Mr. He, and shouted angrily: "Auntie, listen! They! Let’s bully me together!”
He's heart was moved, and he took advantage of the situation and said: "Young Madam, Zhu Lan is still young, and he can still serve Young Madam for a few years, but for her whole life..." After all, she is her biological niece, although Wei Changying will not treat the people around him badly. , but for the dowry alone, there are eight maids, large and small, who serve closely, and there is always a priority. He's plan for Zhu Lan, of course, is to let Wei Changying be the first to agree to Zhu Lan's marriage.
Zhu Lan did not expect that his biological aunt not only refused to speak for him, but actually took it seriously. He was so ashamed that he could no longer stand in the room. He stamped his feet and ran outside: "I won't tell you anymore! I'm just bullying others!"
Wei Changying saw her running out in a colorful dress and was amused: "It's not just a joke today, but I forgot that they are older too. The same goes for Qin Ge and Yan Ge. If you like someone, just tell me." Let it go if you can.”
Qin Ge and Yan Ge were not wary of Zhu Lan's escape, and the topic turned to them. They were stunned for a moment and then said with a smile: "The maidservants have been serving the young lady all their lives. What did the young lady say?"
Guard Chief Ying was startled. He remembered that the four Qin Ge were selected from "Biwu" and were extraordinary maids. He smiled vaguely and asked everyone whether there were more flowers and trees needed in the courtyard. Something like that.
By mid-afternoon, Wei Changying took a nap and thought that he had not practiced martial arts for a few days since he was out of the cabinet. It was probably because of this that his strength dropped drastically, and he was defeated by Shen Zangfeng many times...
So he changed his clothes, boxed in the courtyard, and practiced with the Moon Sword for a while. When he came down, he couldn't help but sweat all over.
When Mrs. He saw it, she wiped her with a handkerchief and ordered people to clean up the bathroom. Together with Mrs. Huang, they were busy waiting on the guard Chang Ying to bathe and change clothes. Huang took a handkerchief and twisted the hair of the guard chief Ying, but asked He to look at the little maids and said not to call them. They were too lazy to get together and gossiped, which ruined the atmosphere of Jintong Courtyard.
The person who believed in Huang's ability the most was He. After hearing this, He took the order without even asking which maids he wanted to beat...
When Wei Changying saw that Mr. He was dismissed, he didn't think much about it. He also saw Mr. Huang asking Jiao Ge and Han Ge to go out. Then he realized that Mr. Huang wanted to talk to him, so he asked: "Aunt?"
Huang made a low-pitched gesture, leaned close to her ear, and then whispered: "Young Madam has also left the cabinet now... Sister He is still very young, Young Madam sees..."
Wei Changying was stunned for a moment before he realized what Huang meant - although the wet nurse He was called aunt, she was only in her thirties now, and her charm was still there. The most important thing is that the He family's son died in infancy, leaving her without a husband or children. Even though Wei Changying will definitely support her until she grows old, it will be a pity in the future to not have a biological child to support her when she gets older.
In the past, Mrs. Song took pity on Mr. He and asked her to remarry, but Ms. He refused to agree because she was reluctant to leave Wei Changying. Now that Wei Changying has left the cabinet and become a young lady, the dowry is her private property, and her parents-in-law and elders cannot interfere too much. It is entirely possible for He to choose an honest and loyal person to marry. At this time, He is still young and can have another biological heir in time, but will not be forced to leave Wei Changying who she raised with her own hands - exactly The best of both worlds.
... I am really too young, and my wet nurse is so protective and loving towards me. I should have come here for her sake long before leaving the palace. Maybe my grandmother and mother had this intention at the beginning, but they forgot to mention it because they were worried about getting married far away. As a result, I never thought of it. Wasn't it Huang who reminded him and was afraid that He wouldn't be delayed all the time
Originally, Wei Changying was not a rigid person. The He family raised her up single-handedly. Her feelings for the He family were still higher than those of the Huang family. Naturally, she hoped that the He family would get well. She was about to nod, but then she thought about it and asked. : "Auntie said that. Could there be someone else? Or?"
… … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … (To be continued)
