Zhulan took the letter and went back to the backyard. She opened the letter without changing her clothes. She clenched her hand holding the letter, and her heart felt heavy.
Boss Zhou hurriedly supported his mother, "Mom, are you okay?"
Zhulan sat and pressed her forehead, "It's okay."
Zhou Laoda took the letter and read it quickly. His grandmother was seriously ill. "Mom, I'm going to Lizhou City."
Zhulan signaled to the eldest brother to go down first. Boss Zhou opened his mouth but finally stepped back. At this time, mother needed quiet.
Zhulan felt bad. She treated her original parents as her own parents. She had been writing to Lizhou all the time. Her head ached. Her mother had been in poor health since she had a serious illness. Even though she had been sending her expensive medicinal herbs, her mother only looked good on the surface. Her mother's body was like a funnel inside. No matter how much she took care of it, it was useless.
Zhulan had a premonition that she would not survive this time. If her mother had not been seriously ill, she would have some confidence that she would get better. Now, Zhulan shed tears unconsciously.
Mrs. Song opened her mouth and said, "Madam, are you okay?"
Zhulan took a handkerchief and wiped her tears, her voice much hoarse, "It's okay, I'll lie down for a while."
Mrs. Song hurriedly got up to get a change of clothes.
In the first house, Li had just finished teaching her son a lesson when the head of the household came back with a bad look on his face. "Didn't you accompany mother to the Min residence? Are you embarrassed because you look so bad?"
Boss Zhou shook his head and said, "There's a letter from Lizhou saying grandma is seriously ill and can't survive."
Li sighed, feeling very sad. She had the best impression of her maternal grandparents. Thinking of her deceased grandmother, Li sat on the chair and asked, "Why can't this good person live longer?"
Boss Zhou, "When Wu Dong passed away, most of Grandma's Ming was lost."
Li felt even more upset, "What did mother say?"
"Mom didn't say anything, that's why I was worried."
He knew from a young age how good his grandmother was to his family. In times of war, it was because of his grandparents that their family was able to remain safe.
Li hardened her heart and said, "I will copy the scriptures. I have accompanied my mother to the temple several times and copied many scriptures in the hope of keeping my family safe."
Boss Zhou shook Li's hand and said, "Then copy more."
Li: "... ...How much did you copy?"
Boss Zhou didn't understand this. "I remember it was Changzhi who proposed it last time. Should I go ask Changzhi?"
Li took the head of the family's hand and said, "No, no, I don't think Changzhi understands. I'll go ask the Buddhists."
Boss Zhou's hand was a little painful. Li was still afraid of the fourth brother. Then he fell silent. He was also quite afraid of the fourth brother.
In the afternoon, the Zhou family called a doctor. Zhulan woke up with a fever and didn't even have the strength to sit. Zhulan's body was weak after giving birth, and even though she was well, she had actually always been weak.
This time, all the worries in my heart suddenly burst out.
Mr. Zhou waited for the doctor to feel his pulse, and was so anxious that he turned around and around. When the doctor stood up, he asked, "Doctor, how is the situation?"
The doctor is the best doctor in Jinzhou, and the Zhou family has always used him. "You are depressed and angry, and your wife needs to be taken care of. I will prescribe a prescription and boil it for you to drink first."
Zhou Lao Da looked at his mother who had closed her eyes. Even after hearing what the doctor said, he was still very panicked. His mother was fine in the morning, but now she was lying down. He asked the doctor to be on standby and asked the second son to go get the medicine himself.
Su Xuan was sitting because she was pregnant. She frowned as she looked at the room full of people. "Brother, sister-in-law and younger sister, please stay. Everyone else, please go away. There are too many people in the room."
Boss Zhou looked at his serious brother and sister-in-law and felt scared. Now his brother and sister-in-law looked serious and full of momentum, worthy of being the county lord. "Let's all go back."
Su Xuan was the county lady, and Zhao wanted to stay but didn't dare to ask, so she could only leave with her daughter.
Wu Ning also left with Yu Lu.
This time there were fewer people in the room, and the windows were open, so the air in the room was much more flowing and comfortable.
Su Xuan said to her eldest brother, "Brother, have you sent someone to tell Dad?"
Boss Zhou: “… … ..”
He felt like he was doomed, and was so anxious and angry that he forgot to tell his father.
Su Xuan fell silent as she watched her eldest brother ask the servant to pass on the message. The whole family couldn't do without her mother-in-law. When something big happened, the eldest sister-in-law wasn't up to the task. The eldest brother was still responsible, but his status as a white-collar worker was a flaw. The second brother was the same as the eldest brother. It would be better if the third brother was at home, but it was a pity that he was not here.
The eldest sister-in-law and the second sister-in-law cannot support the entire Zhou family. The eldest sister-in-law doesn't have so many twists and turns, and the second sister-in-law has too short-sightedness.
Fortunately, the Zhou family is supported by her younger sister. However, Su Xuan touched her belly and found out that her mother-in-law was sick, so she had to attend some banquets on her behalf.
In the government office, Zhou Shuren heard the servant's words, knocked over the inkstone with his hand, and stood up in panic, "Return to the government office."
Fortunately, it was just behind the government office. Zhou Shuren trotted back to the mansion and saw Zhulan lying there as soon as he entered the house. There was nothing in his mind, only Zhulan in his eyes.
Zhou Shuren ran out of the government office, and soon everyone in the office got the news and knew that Zhulan was sick.
Lord Wang sighed, "I have worked with Lord Zhou for so long, and this is the first time I have seen Lord Zhou panic."
It was as if the sky had fallen down. He witnessed with his own eyes Lord Zhou's feelings for Yang.
Lord Wang, “Yes, it’s the first time I’ve seen it.”
At the Zhou Mansion, Zhou Shuren didn't hear what the boss said. He just called Zhulan's name over and over again. He held Zhulan's hands with both of his hands. The warmth from his hands made him feel at ease. God knows what he was thinking when he heard that Zhulan was unconscious.
Li pulled the head of the family hard, saying, "Head of the family, please shut up. Your father-in-law won't listen to you at all. Otherwise he'll get angry."
Boss Zhou finally shut up and looked at his father. Over the years, except for when his mother gave birth to Changzhong, he had never seen his father lose his composure like this. His meticulously crafted hair was now messed up because of jogging.
Dad called Mom over and over again, and Big Boss Zhou felt a lump in his throat. The affection between Dad and Mom was too deep.
Su Xuan stared at her father-in-law in a daze. To be honest, she always thought that her father-in-law was a magical man. He had never changed his desire to get promoted and make money. Her mother-in-law was not an unseen beauty in the world, but her father-in-law only cared about her mother-in-law. She had been married for more than a year and had seen her father-in-law and mother-in-law get along with each other a lot. Not only did they have a tacit understanding, but they were as close as one person.
Su Xuan curled the corners of her mouth. With her father-in-law and mother-in-law as role models, the men in the Zhou family are indeed good.
Zhou Laoer came in with the medicine soup, and Xue Han took it, "Dad, it's time for Mom to take the medicine. I'll feed her the medicine."
Zhou Shuren finally came back to his senses after hearing the medicine. He took it without worrying about the heat and said, "Just let me feed it."
Turning back to look at his sons and daughters-in-law in the room, he noticed that his biological son was not there, "Where's Changzhong?"
Boss Zhou paused, "Changzhong was crying because he was scared, and Mrs. Song was comforting Changzhong!"
The little guy was so scared that he kept crying.
Zhou Shuren was relieved and said to Zhou Laodao: "Okay, you all can go back."
Chang Zhi's mouth twitched. Dad only noticed mom and younger brother. No, he also noticed older brother. He was completely ignored!
Zhou Shuren carefully fed Zhulan the medicine. Zhulan was awakened by the bitter taste and opened her eyes with great effort, "Water, give me water quickly, it's too bitter."
My stomach is churning. Today's taste is really bitter, so bitter that I want to vomit.
Zhou Shuren breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Zhulan woke up and still had the energy to ask for water. He then took a sip and spat it out. It was indeed bitter. How much gunpowder was put in it
