Chapter 165: Exposure (4)
This chapter is made up for yesterday.
Today's update will be put in the evening -
Early the next morning, Chu Weilin went to Songling Courtyard early.
As soon as I arrived outside the courtyard gate, I saw the maids and women bowing their heads and doing their own work, and even saluting and greeting them in a very low voice.
The rules of the Da Zhao family are strict, but the ancestors love to be lively, and they are not so restrained by the people below on weekdays, and there are few people in the Songling Courtyard who are so quiet and cautious.
About the old ancestor is still angry, and none of them dare to touch the mold.
Chu Weilin guessed so at first, but when she walked in, she found that it was wrong.
Liu, who came earlier than her, was standing outside the main room with her daughter and daughter-in-law at the moment, and when she saw her coming, several people smiled faintly at her.
Chu Weilin stepped forward to say hello, and involuntarily glanced into the old ancestor's house, and the window was only open with a crack, so she couldn't see the situation inside.
Liao leaned over and lowered his voice: "The old ancestor has not yet risen." β
Haven't you started yet?
Chu Weilin was a little surprised, elderly people don't like to sleep, although the old ancestor lay down on bed with a lot of worries last night, Chu Weilin didn't need to ask to know, his heart was tossing and turning, he should open his eyes as soon as the morning dawned and then had no intention of sleeping, how could he not get up?
After turning a few corners in his heart, he couldn't show a trace of impatience on his face, and several people waited outside the house, until the people from the long room and the third room came one after another, and the ancestor still didn't move.
Da Zhao made a calm face, and asked someone to go in and ask.
Mama Duan came out of it and greeted them one by one, but her face was extremely bad, as if she had not slept all night: "The old ancestor fell asleep at night, but it seemed to be a nightmare." I slept very badly, it was better when it was dawn, and the slave didn't dare to quarrel with the ancestor when she saw this, so she went in just now and took a look, and her breathing was a little heavy. β
Da Zhao was still a little polite to Mama Duan, and said, "Mom means ......"
"Madam, do you want to ask the doctor to come and have a look?" Mama Duan gave the decision to the Da Zhao clan.
Da Zhao frowned. Hesitated.
Chu Weilin knew the temper of the old ancestor. When they are old, they pay the most attention to a healthy body, and some old people urgently ask a doctor to come to the doctor for a prescription as soon as they have something. Some people are willing to eat something by themselves to recuperate for a few days rather than see any doctors, for fear of bad luck, and the ancestors are the latter.
There is usually no doctor in Songling Courtyard, and the ancestor's body and bones are originally good. Occasionally, some people who are proficient in pharmacology prepare some medicinal diets to slowly recuperate and nourish. It's never been a big deal.
The old ancestor is now asleep and has not gotten up, and at this time he hurriedly invited a doctor, and the old ancestor is afraid that he will be unhappy when he wakes up.
Mama Duan didn't want to take care of this, Da Zhao's family was already unlucky. At this moment, he was also a little unable to advance or retreat, and said after a while: "I'll go in and take a look." β
Mama Duan wouldn't stop her, turned sideways and invited Da Zhao in.
Liu had a calculation in his heart. looked up at Chu Lunxin, but saw a bodhisattva who didn't care about everything. Pursed his lips in amusement.
Da Zhao didn't wait too long, and soon came out of it again, her expression was tense at the moment, and she was stricter than when she came, she ordered a maid: "Go and invite Cen Niangzi to come." β
Chu Weilin secretly glanced at the Da Zhao family, Cen Niangzi is a doctor, and ordinary doctors are different genders and titles, in this era, there are not many women who are proficient in medical skills, so even if it is inconvenient, there will still be a few doctors in the family, but ordinary small illnesses and pains will ask the doctor to go.
As for the ancestor here, Chu Weilin knew that Cen Niangzi was a doctor, but her mouth was a very clever woman, and the ancestor was happier when he saw her than when he saw a few doctors.
It's just that the doctor was invited, which means that the Great Zhao family also thinks that the ancestor is sick.
It takes time to ask Cen Niangzi to go back and forth, it is not appropriate for so many people to stand in the courtyard, after all, the Da Zhao family is the eldest daughter-in-law, so he asked everyone to go back first, and if he has a letter, he will report to the courtyards.
The Liu family took the lead and left, and Chu Weilin didn't plan to stay, so she left with Chu Lunxin.
After entering Yiyuxuan, Chu Lunxin asked Brother Parrot to guard the door and asked Chu Weilin, "Is the ancestor really sick there?" β
"I'm not sick, my aunt dares to invite a doctor?" Chu Weilin asked rhetorically.
Chu Lunxin frowned and hesitated, and she couldn't make up her mind: "I always think it's not." β
Chu Weilin was stunned for a moment, and when she heard her heartbeat, she took a breath and pondered Chu Lunxin's words.
Isn't it......
The ancestor has lived most of his life, and he has seen the wind and waves, will he really fall ill for Chang Yuhui? In his previous life, when Chang Hengxi and his mother's family had a complete falling out, the old ancestor didn't fall down with a sigh of relief, and he didn't fall into bed and couldn't get up until the Chang family had no chance to turn around.
Chu Lunxin was a little unsure, and Chu Weilin tasted some flavor when he thought about it.
"Pretending to be sick, what's the picture?" Chu Weilin muttered to herself.
Chu Zhengfu pretended to be sick, it was a slippery head, he refused to do the work of escorting grain and grass, and simply lay back to the capital half-dead, and just recuperated every day.
If the ancestor pretended to be sick, what was it for?
Although she is the saint's cousin, the saint will not stop punishing because she is sick, and it is precisely because the Chang family has clan blood that the saint has to block the mouths of so many people.
Chu Weilin's train of thought turned quickly, and suddenly thought of the words that Chang Yuyun said to her last night, the Ye family must have a red face and a white face, and she was suddenly startled and surprised.
Is this to prevent the Ye family?
The two in-laws, do you have to take care of it when you ask the Ye family to come to the door? Or is it Chang Hengxi in a dilemma for his mother's body?
Want to play the family card?
Chu Weilin told Chu Lunxin about his thoughts, and Chu Lunxin also had a solemn face, even if this was not the whole purpose of the ancestor, it was the same.
Now that there is no face left, it is normal for the Ye family to withdraw from their relatives, how can they drag it out? can only show weakness, don't ask the Ye family not to come, and be cautious when you come.
Chu Weilin figured out this, so she went back to Ji Jinyuan according to her thoughts, and then called Manniang to come.
She went to the outside of the Ye family to deliver the news by her own side, and Gai Ming'er immediately went to kneel in the courtyard of Songling Courtyard, such an ignorant way. Chu Weilin didn't do it.
Man Niang is a sincere character, Chu Weilin is what she says, and she is a strict mouth, and the news that has been passed through her and Zhao San'er has not gone out of the way before.
Chu Weilin asked Liuyu to guard the middle room, said a few words to Manniang carefully, and said, "Go back and sue SΓΉ Zhao San'er, and then let him sue SΓΉ Third Brother." Remembered. Don't even say anything about it. β
Man Niang nodded solemnly.
Coming out of the house, Pauline asked Manniang a few words curiously, and Manniang blushed. said: "In the past few days, Mrs. Fifth has no appetite there, and grandma is not at ease, and wants me to prepare some snacks that are easy to restrain and not greasy." I told my grandmother that if I can do it, I can do it. There is a shortage of materials in the small kitchen, and at this moment, I dare not go to the big kitchen to ask for this and that. β
Baolian nodded again and again: "If you don't have anything to say, you tell me, and I'll think about it." β
The full mother was stunned. She's talking nonsense, but fortunately, she wanders around the small kitchen every day, and she still knows what is more and what is less. One by one, I sued Pauline.
Pauline has a good memory, and after listening to it, she wrote it down. "I know. β
After saying that, Baolian was about to leave, but Man Niang had an idea, grabbed her sleeve, and said, "Sister, I'm not on duty today, can I go back and see my old son?" When I went back, my sister brought the materials, and I wanted to prepare snacks, but I was afraid that I wouldn't have time to go back. β
These requests of the little maid below, as long as they are harmless, Baolian will usually agree, and after hearing this, she nodded and said, "Go ahead, come back early." β
When Manniang heard this, she happily went back to the house and took some of the saved monthly rewards, and went away as soon as she smoked.
After lunch, news came from Songling Hospital, the ancestor was very tired, and asked Doctor Cen to prescribe a prescription to recuperate, so that everyone was exempted from the rules, and there was no need to go over every day to say goodbye.
Chu Weilin guessed some of the ancestors' thoughts, and there was no surprise in this matter.
When Manniang came back at night, looking at her expression, Chu Weilin also knew that it was done.
Zhao San'er received the letter, and he didn't dare to delay the affairs of his masters, so he quickly looked for Chu Weijing.
Chu Weijing was surprised when she heard it at first, after all, Chu Weilin rarely cares about other people's affairs, but when she thought that the Yousi she invited was the girl from the Ye family, the relationship between the two should be very good, and he, who is an elder brother, just helps to pass a word to the Ye family, which is not very difficult.
The sons in the capital have their own circles, Chu Weijing has never been with the gentlemen, the Ye family is upright, and he has had some dealings.
Chu Weilin also knew about Chu Weijing's situation, so she entrusted this matter to him.
After Chang Yuyun returned home, he knew that the old ancestor was sick, and he had to go over, but he didn't see the face of the old ancestor, so he called Mama Duan to stop him outside the house.
The old ancestor said so many things last night, how could Chang Yuyun not guess what his grandmother was going to do, he showed his face, and he didn't have to go in, so he withdrew.
On the second day after Chang Yuhui's accident, there was a lot of rumors outside, and Chang was in the house, and he could finally be called "orderly".
Chu Weilin waited for Chang Yuyun to have dinner, and when the table was removed, she didn't take the initiative to mention the ancestor's illness, Chang Yuyun looked at her and knew that she must know it in her heart, so she smiled and didn't mention it.
There is no need to go to say hello in the morning, although Chu Weilin woke up just as early, she had time to sleep back.
When she opened her eyes again, she called Liuyu and asked the time, knowing that it was not early, and just as she was about to sit up, Pauline had already lifted the curtain and came in, and quickly bypassed the interstitial screen of pomegranate blossoms.
"In such a hurry?" Chu Wei Linqi said.
Baolian also knew that she was in a hurry, but she couldn't care about that, and said, "Grandma, the Ye family is here." β
Chu Weilin suddenly came to her senses and asked her in a suppressed voice, "Who are here?" β
"The second master, the second wife, the fifth master, the third master, and the third grandmother of the Ye family." Pauline inquired about these things most clearly, and said it clearly with one mouth.
After hearing this, Chu Weilin knew that Chang Hengxi did not come, so she was already relieved.
It seems that Chu Weijing should have passed all the words there. (To be continued)
