Early the next morning, Bai Chen's bedroom was furnished with new furniture, which was more beautiful than the original one.
At 3 p.m., Zhou personally brought a doctor with a white beard to Cuijuyuan to examine Bai Chen.
It was obvious at first glance that this doctor was a famous and respected physician. Even Mrs. Zhou was extremely polite to him and called him Mr. Lu.
Bai Chen still looked pitiful, as if he was both nervous and expectant.
Zhou patted Bai Chen's shoulder comfortingly and said softly, "Don't be nervous, it's just a check-up. If it can be cured, of course it should be treated well.
If it can’t be cured, that’s OK.”
"Yes, thank you, mother-in-law." Bai Chen was so moved that her eyes were red, but in fact she knew very well the purpose of Zhou bringing the doctor here.
In addition to checking the body to see if there is any hope of expelling the remaining toxins and unblocking blocked meridians, it is also to see if this little body is suitable for giving birth.
Zhou only had one son in her life, but the head of the family had more than one son.
If her own son is never well, she will have to rely on her grandson.
Therefore, she was more eager than the head of the family to have a grandson in the Cui family as soon as possible.
But the daughter-in-law he married into the family had been poisoned and was too young.
This made her very worried. What if her daughter-in-law was not only a good-for-nothing but also infertile
Therefore, it is safer to know the answer first.
The doctor frowned and felt the patient's pulse for a long time before he spoke:
"What a pity, he was originally a very talented child, but he has been poisoned for too long, so it is not easy to open up his meridians.
If we can get a ninth-grade marrow regeneration pill, there might be a 50% chance of success."
"Ninth grade?" Zhou swallowed. The highest-ranking alchemist in Xuantian City was only sixth grade.
Moreover, the price of sixth-grade elixirs is already sky-high, let alone ninth-grade elixirs.
No one in the Cui family has ever taken the ninth-grade elixir.
“Currently, there are only two ninth-grade alchemists in the entire continent.
The price of ninth-grade elixirs is almost sky-high, and there is no market for them.”
The old man adjusted his beard and shook his head.
"I understand." Zhou was a little embarrassed. The cost of the ninth-grade elixir was too high, not to mention that there was only a 50% chance of success.
It is impossible for the Cui family to spend such a huge cost.
"Then, take a look at her body and see if she can give birth?" Zhou asked again.
Then, the old man felt her pulse for a while and said, "It won't affect her fertility, but she is still too young and her pelvis is too narrow. I suggest you get a bigger one, maybe it will be better."
"Oh, that's good." Zhou seemed to be relieved, "Then, sir, please prescribe some medicine to regulate the body.
This child is weak, give her some good care first."
"Yes, ma'am."
Then, the two of them got up and left, and Bai Chen didn't say a word the whole time.
Judging from the look in Zhou's eyes when she left, her kindness had faded a lot.
She originally thought that her son might not marry a loser, so she was extremely enthusiastic about this daughter-in-law.
But she was disappointed because the cost of treatment was too high.
We can only hope that she gives birth to a son for the Cui family.
But she couldn't give birth to a son right away. She had to wait until she grew up. Zhou was very depressed for a while.
The owner's concubines are not content and are already pushing their sons forward.
If the illegitimate son becomes the head of the family in the future, he may have to give up his position to the concubine.
Bai Chen still had some understanding of Zhou's situation, but he was destined to disappoint her.
It would be impossible for her to give birth to a son for the Cui family, and her son would be thrown into an abyss from which there would be no escape.
When he was supposed to return home on the third day, Bai Chen did not go back to the Zhang family. He only prepared some gifts and asked someone to take them back.
It seemed that no one in the Zhang family cared whether their married daughter came back or not.
She was just a useless person and not of their concern, unless she miraculously got better again.
In the days that followed, Zhou would ask Bai Chen to come to her place every day. In addition to giving her the prepared medicine, he would also teach her how to get along with her son.
As long as the tonic medicine does not harm the body, Bai Chen will of course drink it obediently.
Bai Chen listened to Zhou's various instructions very obediently and looked very well-behaved.
Zhou was quite satisfied with Bai Chen's performance.
He is obedient and compliant. He agrees to whatever you tell him to do and we get along pretty well.
My son is already disabled, so it's impossible for him to marry a genius girl. If you don't have too high requirements, it's actually not bad.
Gradually, the two got along better and better, and Zhou even said that she wanted to treat her daughter-in-law as her own daughter.
She said that the biggest regret in her life was that she didn't have a daughter, and this well-behaved daughter-in-law just made up for her regret.
Many mothers-in-law say this, but Bai Chen certainly doesn't take it seriously.
When a couple has a conflict, the mother-in-law will never stand on the side of her daughter-in-law.
In their hearts, daughter-in-law is always an outsider.
During their time together, Bai Chen would often look sad because she could not please her husband. Every time this happened, Zhou would comfort her lovingly.
She knew best what kind of person her son was now, so she no longer had any hope for him.
I only hope that my son and daughter-in-law will give birth to another son, and then the position of head of the family will be inherited by the next generation.
Because high-level warriors have a very long lifespan, and when their grandchildren grow up, they will still look young, so such an arrangement is not a bad idea.
Among the aristocratic families on this continent, there are those where the older generation patriarch directly passes the position of patriarch to his great-grandson.
Cui Mingyan was detained for half a month and looked even more gloomy when he came out.
Whenever Bai Chen saw him in public in the hall, he would behave timidly, as if he was extremely afraid of him.
But whenever there are only two people present, its sharp claws will always be exposed.
He was ridiculed to no end.
Cui Mingyan was so angry that he vomited blood. He complained to his parents, saying how vicious she was and that he must never be deceived by her.
However, his parents did not believe what he said. How could a weak woman dare to be so vicious? Wasn't she afraid of death
It must be something the son made up because he doesn't like his daughter-in-law.
She also earnestly advised him that this might be the end of his life and that he should get along well with his young wife and wait for a year or so to give birth to a son.
This incident made him so angry that he beat up a maid again.
It turns out that even my own biological parents feel that my life is over. It's so discouraging.
But he always felt that there would definitely be a good day for him, there would definitely be one.
When I get better, the first thing I will do is divorce Zhang Xin and then kill her secretly.
After Cui Mingyan was educated in various ways, the idea of killing his wife was buried deep in his heart, but his hatred for her became even stronger.
In the days that followed, although Cui Mingyan became more gloomy, he never caused trouble for Bai Chen again.
Bai Chen enjoyed the peace and quiet and started a crazy training mode. In addition to practicing, he also practiced boxing, acupressure, and swordsmanship.
She has trained her body's flexibility to the best condition.
About a year passed like this, and Bai Chen had already reached the peak of Xuanqi, and seemed to be on the road to advancement.
The noise of advancing to the next level is very loud, but advancing in Cui's house will definitely alarm the people here, so she plans to leave Cui's house and find a cave to advance.
After being married for a year, it is time for Bai Chen to go back to visit the Zhang family.
Advancement and returning to my parents' home, both at the same time.
