Chapter 34: The Concubine
Ask for collection, ask for tickets~~~——
As Chu Weilin expected, Aunt Xia drank the medicine for several days in a row, but she did not see the slightest change.
On the contrary, it was Mrs. Zhang, who seemed to be a matter of her heart, she was sick, and she relied on diet to recuperate, and her spirit was much better.
Chu Weilin went over early in the morning to say goodbye.
Today, Chu Weicong didn't have to go to the academy, so he came to Yishun Hall to accompany Mrs. Zhang.
Mrs. Zhang asked Chu Weicong to sit on the side of the bed and personally consider the knowledge.
Chu Weilin sat on the side, and couldn't help but be happy when she saw her brother answer the truth.
The half-grown boy is when he grows up, and the clothes that Lu's mother changed a few days ago are tighter now.
He took the porridge from Holly's hand, dissipated some of the heat slightly, and brought it to the bedside: "Old lady, Wei Cong's homework is the most reassuring for us as elders." ”
Mrs. Zhang glanced at He's family, full of disapproval, even Chu Weicong was angry, and she couldn't praise her like this in front of the child, after all, she was still young, and what she was most afraid of was being praised as a frog at the bottom of the well, she said to Chu Weicong seriously: "To do learning, you must endure loneliness, not arrogant or impatient." ”
Chu Weicong nodded, got up and gave up his seat to He.
He's fart slapped on the horse's leg, and quickly found a way to remedy it: "Wei Cong's clothes look small, old lady, seeing that it is about to enter winter, my daughter-in-law will let Feng's second daughter-in-law measure the size of her winter clothes in the past few days." ”
was reminded by He Shiyi, Mrs. Zhang looked Chu Weicong's clothes up and down, and responded: "All of them are growing in length, and they all have some sizes, don't have any clothes that fit when you go to relatives for the New Year." ”
He hurriedly responded with a smile.
Yu's mother came in from outside, with a solemn face: "Old lady, the fifth master and the fifth wife are here." ”
When Mrs. Zhang was ready, Chu Lunxu and Li entered the inner room one after the other.
They came for Aunt Xia's illness, and the Li family raised his eyes and saw that the He family was waiting, afraid that she would stir up discord and do bad things, so he quietly pulled the corner of Chu Lunxu's clothes, Chu Lunxu understood, and sat down on the side without saying much.
Li Shi asked Mrs. Zhang with a smile, and asked Mrs. Zhang to block a few words, and she was embarrassed for a while, and sat down in a proper manner.
Mrs. Zhang used the porridge point, and just after rinsing her mouth, Dong Que came in with a green face.
"Old lady, Aunt Xia doesn't look very good," Dong Que lowered her hand and said respectfully, "I vomited all the medicine I just sent again." ”
Chu Lun frowned, and his worry was all written on his face.
Old Mrs. Zhang's face was expressionless, and she said coldly: "Vomited? Let the kitchen be ready again and send it away. Good medicine is bitter and must be drunk to be good. ”
Tomallow stiffened, and then withdrew.
"Mother," Chu Lunxu couldn't bear it, and spoke eagerly, "Auntie's body has always been fine, but suddenly she got cold, and it doesn't matter if she doesn't improve for a few days, how can it be aggravated?" ”
Some cloudy eyes slowly glanced at the restless concubine, and Mrs. Zhang snorted and did not answer.
He Shi gently arranged the brocade quilt and said: "The fifth uncle should ask Dr. Zhu these words, our old lady can't diagnose the pulse, how can she tell the reason?" ”
Chu Lunxu's face turned red, and he didn't say anything more.
What was he going to say?
Does he say that he doesn't believe in Dr. Zhu, or does he not believe that Aunt Xia will be seriously ill?
Or did he simply say that he suspected that there was something wrong with the medicine, and that his mother-in-law was harming his aunt?
Chu Lun didn't have the guts.
The long words turned in the stomach countless times, and finally all that came out of his mouth was cautious and tentative.
"Mother, my son wants to see my aunt."
"Oh," Mrs. Zhang finally gave some reaction when she heard this, "Just go and see?" Lun Xu, you want to take care of your aunt, right? ”
Chu Lunxu stiffened his head and replied "yes".
"What a filial son!" Old Lady Zhang's face sank suddenly, slapped the bed board heavily, and shouted, "Old woman, I lay down for a whole month last month, did you say that you would come to serve once?" My grandmother didn't see the sick in front of me, and your aunt has only been lying down for a few days, so you are anxious to go over? It deserves to come out of her belly! ”
As soon as this charge was pressed, Chu Lunxu could still sit still, knelt on the ground with a puff, and kowtowed again and again to admit his mistake: "Mother is angry, mother is angry." ”
Li also knelt down and lowered his body.
A mocking smile that was almost invisible crossed He Shi's lips and turned into a sentence, "Old lady, Fifth Uncle didn't mean that." ”
It sounds like persuasion, but it actually adds fuel to the fire.
Chu Weilin and Chu Weicong are not sitting or standing, but they can't be invisible people.
"Grandmother," Chu Weilin was afraid that they would be endless, and it would be more and more difficult to clean up, so she stepped forward and said to Mrs. Zhang, "Grandmother is wrong to blame the fifth uncle, it is grandmother who is bent on thinking about uncle and father, afraid that they will delay their official business, and refuses to ask them to serve; I was afraid that I would get sick and keep everyone out. At that time, we were so anxious that we could only wait for news in the yard. ”
When Mrs. Zhang heard this, her frowning brows stretched a little, and she followed Chu Weilin's words and said, "It's really kind to be a donkey's liver and lungs!" When do you want to show your heart, but your aunt is sick, you have to pass the illness, and your daughter-in-law and Wei Chen and Wei Xuan may be affected! ”
No matter how reluctant he was, Chu Lunxu could only go down the pole: "It's the son who is ignorant and doesn't understand the weak mother." ”
"You're not too young, how come you don't understand your parents' hearts when you're a father?" Old Madam Zhang let out a long sigh, "Don't mention these things again, lest your aunt still worry about her illness." ”
Chu Lunxu and the Li family withdrew hand in hand, and asked Mrs. Zhang to refute it, so it was not good to go to the courtyard where Aunt Xia lived rashly, so they could only secretly stuff some silver for Mother Zhao and let her take care of Aunt Xia.
When He came out, he happened to see it, and he didn't say anything with a blank look.
This is Yishun Hall, Aunt Xia is half the master, and she has given birth to a son, Mrs. Zhang is not embarrassed by her, which person dares to disobey the yang and the yin? If the old lady has some thoughts, what if the money in this courtyard is collected?
In the inner room, Mrs. Zhang glanced at Chu Weilin, unhappy or angry: "It's really clever." ”
Chu Weilin lowered her head and didn't say much.
She could see that Mrs. Zhang wanted to be happy and sharp, and she would not make Aunt Xia comfortable, but this was all a secret thing, and on the surface, she didn't plan to tear her face with her concubine.
Chu Lunxu begged for a half-try, and Mrs. Zhang was definitely unhappy, but she also had to have a reason.
The olive branch that Chu Weilin handed over just resolved the trouble, and it was reasonable, much more appropriate than what Mrs. Zhang said herself, and Chu Lunxu was muttering and it was not good to be entangled anymore.
