Early in the morning, just before Chen's hour, Fang Chengling and his wife came to Anningju to greet Mrs. Fang.
The two of them would come at this time every day, and Fang Chengling would personally cleanse Mrs. Fang, looking very filial.
After cleansing his face, Fang Chengling handed the handkerchief to the maid at the side, and said to Xiao Yi: "My lord, you have really worked hard these few days."
Xiao Yi smiled and said, "This is what it should be."
Fang Chengling said happily: "Your grandfather must be very happy that you and the concubine are so filial."
"Yes." Mrs. Fang also agreed, and then looked at Nangong Yue's tired little face, and said lovingly: "Concubine Shizi, my aunt knows that you are filial, but you have to take care of yourself. If you're exhausted, you'll lose sight of that." Although she spoke nicely, she obviously didn't intend to let her daughter replace Nangong Yue's vigil.
Nangong Yue knew it well, smiled gently, and said, "Auntie is right. I will pay attention."
At this time, there was a sound of curtain picking, and Thrush came into the inner room carrying a mahogany tray, on which was a bowl of steaming soup.
"Concubine Shizi, the soup is ready." Huamei carefully placed the tray on the small table next to the bed.
Fang Chengling and his wife's heart beat faster, and they exchanged a look quickly.
Nangong Yue asked Baihui and a woman to help Mrs. Fang a little bit, and put a big pillow on his back, then held up the medicine bowl and said softly: "Grandfather, grandson-in-law is here to serve you Medication."
In the past few days, Nangong Yue has been serving day and night, she no longer wears bracelets, and even removes all the beads from her head, and simply puts her hair in a bun.
Old Master Fang's eyelashes trembled slightly, and a pair of slightly hollow eyes stared at Fang Chengling and his wife, wishing to eat their flesh and blood.
Fang Chengling and his wife were terrified by him, and they felt more and more that this decision was not wrong. If they didn't act ruthlessly, there would be no way for them to survive!
As for now, as long as they drive away Xiao Yi and Nangong Yue, this old man is just a fish on their chopping board, let them slaughter him!
Thinking of this, Fang Chengling and his wife felt relieved a lot. They stared at Nangong Yue's every move with burning eyes, watching her carefully and thoughtfully feed the decoction into Mrs. Fang's mouth one by one with a small silver spoon. The handkerchief wiped away the medicine stains spilling from the corners of his mouth.
The decoction in Nangong Yue's bowl was getting less and less, Fang Chengling and his wife secretly rejoiced: It's done!
After drinking half a bowl of medicine, Mrs. Fang seemed to be sleepy. He closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
Seeing this, Mrs. Fang whispered from the side: "Father is asleep, then we won't bother you. The son, the concubine, I'm still busy and you take care of me."
Nangong Yue blessed Fushen and said, "Uncle, Auntie, please rest assured."
Fang Chengling and his wife left, leaving only Fang Yulan to continue serving the sick in Anningju.
Fang Yulan spent another morning carelessly in Dongci Room. When it was almost lunch time, she couldn't wait to get up, and was about to go back to her yard for dinner, but who knew that Fang Chengling and his wife came here again in a hurry.
"Concubine Shizi," Mrs. Fang said worriedly as soon as she arrived in the inner room, "Sister Lan asked the maid to pass it to me and said that my father didn't wake up all morning, so he came to have a look..."
Huh? Fang Yulan was stunned, she didn't ask anyone to speak.
Fang Yulan moved her lips, and before she could speak, Mrs. Fang had already quickened her pace and walked to the side of the couch. She gently pushed Mrs. Fang, and whispered: "Father, father..."
But Old Master Fang's eyes were tightly closed, and he didn't react at all, as if he had fallen asleep.
"Father, father..."
Mrs. Fang panicked, and called out several more times, each louder, then turned around in a panic and said to Cheng Ling, "Master! Master, it's not good, I can't wake up my father! Please doctor! "
"Yes, ma'am." A maid hurriedly took orders.
Nangong Yue stood in front of the couch in disbelief.
Fang Chengling strode forward, also yelling anxiously: "Father! Father..." After speaking, he turned to look at Xiao Yi and Nangong Yue beside him, and snapped, "Ah Yi, Princess Concubine, how do you take care of you?" Grandfather's? It was fine in the morning, why is it... just like this?!"
Nangong Yue glanced at Xiao Yi in panic, and mumbled: "A Yi, I... In the morning, when I fed my grandfather medicine, my grandfather was obviously fine..."
Xiao Yi's face sank like water, his brows were deeply furrowed, he also walked to the side of the couch, and softly called: "Grandfather, grandfather..."
Mrs. Fang still didn't respond at all.
Fang Chengling showed helplessness, and sighed with grief: "Your aunt has taken care of your grandfather for more than ten years without any problems, and you have only been in a few days..." He looked unwilling to say more.
For a while, the atmosphere in the inner room was somewhat dignified.
Xiao Yi looked at the unconscious Old Master Fang with an inexplicable expression, while Nangong Yue looked at a loss, as if he had been terrified.
Not long after, there was a sound of messy footsteps outside, mixed with the maid's nervous voice: "Doctor He, it's right here! Please come with your servant..."
The footsteps were getting closer and closer, followed by the sound of curtains being raised, an old man in green robes with gray hair and beard hurried into the room following a little maid.
Mrs. Fang held a handkerchief, wiped her tears, and said: "Mr. He, please take a look for my old man... the old man, he..."
Dr. He put down the medicine box and sat down on the twig beside the couch. A little maid pushed aside some brocade quilts, and gently pulled out Mrs. Fang's left wrist.
Dr. He stretched out three fingers to rest on Mrs. Fang's wrist for a moment, then withdrew his hand, his face sinking like water.
Fang Chengling hurriedly asked, "Doctor He, how is my father doing now?"
Dr. He frowned and scolded: "Nonsense! Nonsense! What kind of medicine did you give the old man recently? Obviously, when the old man came to check the old man's peace pulse a few days ago, the old man's pulse was still very stable. Make a quick turn down?"
Mrs. Fang gave Nangong Yue a look of embarrassment, wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, and said, "Mr. He, my niece and daughter-in-law said that her medical skills were passed down in her family, and she insisted on treating the old man. She is very filial, and we are elders." It's hard to refute her good intentions... Two days ago, the old man seemed to be getting better, but today I don't know why..."
"What nonsense!" Seeing Nangong Yue's young appearance, Dr. He couldn't help frowning, and said sharply, "The old man is weak and needs to be treated slowly with gentle medicine. Your niece and daughter-in-law are too aggressive. The medicine is so fierce, how can the old man bear it with his almost exhausted body!"
Nangong Yue lowered her head, tightly pinched the handkerchief in her hands, and said nothing.
Dr. He stroked his beard, and reprimanded Nangong Yue: "Little lady, I don't know that you have studied medicine for several years before you dare to act like this. You must know that this study of medicine is not just on paper, it depends on the symptoms of different patients. Come to adjust the prescription, as the saying goes, 'a slight difference, a thousand miles away', if the dosage is wrong, it will cost a person's life! Little Madam, don't make fun of people's lives in the future!"
He spoke clearly and logically, Fang Chengling nodded again and again, and asked impatiently: "Doctor He, think of a way to save my father!"
Dr. He pondered for a moment, "I'll prescribe three doses of medicine first, and if it gets better, I can save it. Otherwise... hey."
Fang Chengling hurriedly asked the maid to serve the pen and ink.
Afterwards, he sighed for a long time, looked at Xiao Yi and said, "A Yi, uncle believed in your filial piety, so he let you and the concubine Shizi heal and serve your grandfather, but now... hey!" He sighed After taking a deep breath, he said angrily and urgently, "Anyway, I am your uncle, and I will never drive you away, but you and the concubine Shizi should not stay here and cause trouble, go back to your yard! Your grandfather, Free me and your aunt to take care of it!"
In the end, he was clearly ordering to evict the guest!
Dr. He on the side was terrified when he heard it. He is a doctor enshrined by the Fang Mansion, so he is naturally quite skilled in medicine. He has always been taking care of Mrs. Fang's condition.
The pulse of Mrs. Fang today is indeed wrong. In fact, he can no longer tell whether the pulse is getting better or worse. But Mrs. Fang has been ill for so long, so how can he get better for no reason? Naturally, it is better to get worse, so he That's why I said so.
But if he knew that it was the concubine Shizi who treated the old doctor Fang, he wouldn't dare to say those words even if he was killed!
She is the crown prince, so... then, isn't this one--
Grandpa?!
Dr. He glanced at Xiao Yi in fear, but until now, Dr. He could only act as if he didn't know, and wrote the prescription with his head down.
Xiao Yi looked at Old Master Fang deeply, with a look of regret, and after a while he cupped his hands and said: "... Uncle, then Ah Yue and I will leave first..."
Fang Chengling suppressed the ecstasy in his heart, and turned his face away pretending to be annoyed.
Xiao Yi took Nangong Yue and left.
After a stick of incense, Fang Chengling and his wife returned to the main courtyard. After dismissing the slaves, Mrs. Fang couldn't hold back any longer, and said with a smile on her face: "Master, you are so tall! You saw the relationship between the son and the concubine just now. Does your face look pale?"
Mrs. Fang served Fang Chengling attentively to drink tea, and Fang Chengling was even more contented.
"Brother Yu's plan is very clever." Fang Chengling's eyes showed a hint of pride. His son is really outstanding, not only can he read well, but also has a flexible mind. The family business of their Fang family is inherited by Brother Yu, and it will definitely be carried forward in the future!
Thinking of her son, Mrs. Fang also had a smile in her eyes, she couldn't be more satisfied with her son, unlike the concubine who is timid, what a grandeur he can be!
At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps from inside and outside, followed by a little servant girl who said respectfully: "Master, madam, the son and the concubine please see me!"
Why did Xiao Yi and Nangong Yue come here?! Fang Chengling and his wife looked at each other, and then Fang Chengling said: "Don't invite the Shi Ziye and Shi Zifei to come in."
As he spoke, he stood up, flicked his robe and said, "I'll go meet them."
Fang Chengling went to the main hall to sit down, and after a while, the maid brought Xiao Yi and Nangong Yue in.
Fang Chengling sat on the mahogany chair of the master above him, looking worried.
Xiao Yi and Nangong Yue walked into the hall and saluted Fang Chengling respectfully.
Fang Chengling said indifferently: "Ayi, what's the matter with you and the concubine Shizi coming here?"
Xiao Yi bowed solemnly and said: "Uncle, Ah Yue and I have come here specially to plead guilty to Uncle." Nangong Yue lowered her brows and looked down, very obedient.
Fang Chengling felt very happy when he thought of Xiao Yi's arrogant and arrogant behavior towards Tang Qinghong before. Even if he is the son of Prince Zhennan, he still has to bow his head and admit his mistakes to his uncle.
Fang Chengling concealed the pride in his eyes, and sighed: "Ayi, uncle is not angry with you and the concubine, uncle knows that you and the concubine are also filial, but sometimes good intentions will do bad things. Your grandfather's body is really tossing I'm sorry. A Yi, if you don't listen to the old man's words, you will be at a disadvantage. You are still young, and you still have a lot to learn."
"Thank you for your teaching, Uncle." Xiao Yi bowed again, "Please allow Ayi to serve tea to Uncle to express my apology!"
Fang Chengling felt more complacent, and gave the maid who was serving at the side a wink, and the maid immediately brought a cup of hot tea. Xiao Yi took it with both hands, and raised his hands respectfully before Fang Chengling.
After Fang Chengling took it, he held the lid in one hand and the lid in the other, and slowly used the lid to remove the foam floating on the surface of the tea soup, then took a sip, and put down the teacup.
"Ayi, Princess Concubine, next..."
Fang Chengling wanted to reprimand Xiao Yi and Nangong Yue a few more words, but after only a few words, he felt dizzy. He supported his forehead and shook his head, thinking: Could it be that he didn't sleep well last night
Fang Chengling shook his head again, stood up and said, "Ayi, I'm a little dizzy, I'll lose it first..."
"Since uncle is unwell, I'd better call a doctor quickly." Xiao Yi said with concern, "Just now, Doctor He is good at medicine..."
"No need." Fang Chengling said stiffly, "I'm just dizzy..." As he spoke, his head became more dizzy, his eyes became more blurred, his feet softened, and he suddenly fell down, his eyes blurred, as if he was in a Like in a fog.
"Uncle! Uncle..."
Xiao Yi's nervous and worried cry rang in Fang Chengling's ears, Fang Chengling vaguely saw Xiao Yi squatting beside him, Xiao Yi seemed to be smiling?!
Fang Chengling's heart skipped a beat.
"Uncle," Xiao Yi said slowly in Fang Chengling's ear, lowering his voice, "I like an old saying very much: treat another person with his own way. I will make you feel the pain that my grandfather has suffered all these years. Taste it all... the days are still long, we are not in a hurry!"
