Chapter 995: Qi Sickness
Xiao Rui followed the palace doctor of King Yan's Mansion to Zhou's house, obviously on the orders of King Yan. Even if his identity has not been officially disclosed at the moment, there is no reason why the Zhou family should not entertain the envoy of King Yan to have a simple dinner at their house. Xiao Rui specially went to Xie's house next door to eat, which didn't seem to be a reasonable approach no matter how you looked at it.
Xie Hui was confused, but he still didn't continue to chase it back. Seeing that the second sister Xie Mulin chased him out and asked Xiao Rui about his intentions, he immediately ordered the people in the main courtyard to make noodle soup, and then pulled Xiao Rui into the upper room, and he simply followed into the house.
Xie Pu and Wen were sitting and talking on the kang in the inner room, and when they saw Xiao Rui coming, they hurriedly called him in to warm up. Knowing that Mrs. Zhou next door was sick, they were very concerned and asked what was going on.
In front of his future father-in-law and mother-in-law, Xiao Rui has always been able to answer questions unless he encounters something that needs to be kept secret. What happened to the Zhou family was not a secret, so he told it honestly.
Mrs. Zhou was already sick, but it was not very important, and suddenly her condition worsened because of the turmoil caused by Mrs. Xu's visit today.
She was not only angry at Mrs. Xu's excessive request, but also sad about the reaction of her sons and daughters-in-law after Mrs. Xu's request. It is said that when she heard about this, she vomited blood, passed out, and when she woke up again, her whole complexion was decaying, as if she had suddenly become seriously ill. The family looked at her ominously and was worried that something would go wrong, so they wanted to ask for a doctor. It's just that in the matter of what doctor to invite, several masters of the Zhou family have different opinions.
Mr. Zhou wanted to find a famous doctor who had always been accustomed to seeing Mrs. Zhou, and the other party happened to have some friendship with the younger generations of Mrs. Zhou's mother's family, and had always been deeply trusted by Mrs. Zhou and her mother's relatives. Master Zhou felt that this famous doctor knew the whole thing about Mrs. Zhou, and he had always been used to conditioning her body, and he was the most safe, even if there was anything bad about the old mother's condition, he could help explain it to the old mother's maiden relatives. Mrs. Chow was noncommittal about her husband's decision.
In order to avoid scandalous rumors, let outsiders chew the tongue of the Zhou family, it is better to find a strange doctor, it is better to not dare to offend the Zhou family, and keep your mouth tight. Mrs. Tuesday was very much in favor of her husband's opinion, but the two of them were regarded by their family as the culprits of the angry old lady, and they were punished to kneel, and no one paid attention to any suggestions they said.
On Wednesday, the old man insisted on going to the palace doctor of the Yanwang Mansion, because in the Beiping realm, there was no doctor with more skilled medical skills than the old mansion doctor. invited the current government doctor, if he can't catch it, he will go to consult the elders in the family. In this way, it can be ensured that Mrs. Zhou can get the best treatment. Mrs. Wednesday supported her husband's idea and offered to come forward to ask Princess Yan. She was originally a member of the clan, even if she had always been low-key, she was somewhat decent in front of the Yan Wang couple.
On Thursday, the old man had no idea, only to ask a reliable doctor to heal the old mother as soon as possible. He felt that a doctor who lived nearby had good medical skills, so he could invite the other party to check the pulse of the old mother first, and if it was really a serious illness, it would not be too late to ask the doctor of the Yanwang Mansion, and at the same time, he would also invite the famous doctor who had always been used to seeing the old mother just in case. On Thursday, Mrs. was also punished for kneeling, and only made a confession, without expressing any opinion on her husband's words.
The four brothers argued about asking for a doctor, but they actually knew the real reason for the old mother's illness. Although they are worried about the old mother in their hearts, most of them are even more reluctant to let outsiders know about the ugly things inside the Zhou family. In the end, the old man on Wednesday refused to argue any longer, delaying the old lady's treatment, and went directly to the nearby commercial street to hire an old horse, rode to the Yan Wang's mansion to meet the Yan Wang, and asked the house doctor to come to the door. King Yan was also surprised that Mrs. Zhou, who had never heard of any major physical problems, would suddenly become seriously ill, so he sent Xiao Rui to come over to take a look.
After Xiao Rui followed the doctor to the door of the Zhou family, he also paid attention to the performance of the Zhou family. He saw Tuesday and his wife kneeling on the steps outside Mrs. Zhou's house, and their two younger children were accompanying their parents with umbrellas, but the eldest daughter, Miss Thursday, was missing. Mrs. Thursday knelt in the small hall outside the house, which had a brazier and a stove, and her situation was naturally much more comfortable than that of the people outside the door, and on Thursday the lord and several children were by her side. Mr. and Mrs. Zhou and Mr. and Mrs. Wednesday were both in Mrs. Zhou's room. After the house doctor entered the house, Master Zhou immediately took over the work of greeting the house doctor from his younger brother, and the old man on Wednesday also immediately lowered his profile, followed behind the eldest brother, and occasionally interjected a sentence or two in the conversation between the eldest brother and the house doctor, but in general, he was still very respectful and obedient to the eldest brother.
As for Mrs. Zhou, the house doctor diagnosed that she was so angry that she vomited blood, and the reason why the situation was not good was that she had lost her spirit and had no desire to survive. This is related to the housework of the Zhou family, it is not something that he can manage as a house doctor, he can only help Mrs. Zhou administer needles, and then prescribe a prescription for the Zhou family to boil medicine. If the effect of the needle is good, Mrs. Zhou can also take medicine, then there is still the power to return to heaven. But he had secretly revealed to Xiao Rui behind the back of the rest of the Zhou family, and felt that Mrs. Zhou might not be good this time.
At present, the government doctor is still administering needles at Zhou's house, and it takes a long time. Xiao Rui didn't know how to do medicine, so there was no point in staying there. And he saw that the atmosphere inside the Zhou family was weird, and it was embarrassing for him to be an outsider, and a few grandchildren of the Zhou family seemed to be interested in befriending him, but he felt that it was really not the time to talk about this kind of thing now, so he found an excuse and got out.
Of course, not having dinner is also an important reason. Xiao Rui said that he was not interested in dining at Zhou's house, which was in the midst of filial piety, and would rather go to his fiancée's house next door to ask for a bowl of hot noodle soup to eat.
Xie Mulin smiled and took the tray from Yahuan's hand, and gave her fiancé a bowl of hot chicken noodle soup, and lined up eight side dishes on the side, so that Xiao Rui could eat well and be full. Xiao Rui suddenly moved his index finger, confessed to his elders, smiled at Xie Mulin again, and ate noodles fragrantly.
Xie Pu's mood was a little heavy, and he looked at his wife Wen: "I also heard about the Zhou family before, what is Mrs. Xu doing?" What's going on Tuesday and Thursday here? Why does it look like they are still being punished for kneeling? ”
Wen hesitated for a moment, then told him the information that Mrs. Wan had revealed earlier, some of which Xiao Rui had never heard of, and he couldn't help but slow down the movements in his hand when he listened to it, until Xie Mulin handed him the hand stove, he woke up, smiled at his fiancée again, and continued to bury his head in eating noodles.
Xie Pu understood: "Mrs. Xu's proposal is ridiculous, the two members of the second room of the Zhou family heard such a ridiculous proposal, and they did not immediately drive people out of the door, but asked if they could use their niece to act instead of their daughter, which caused the dissatisfaction of the fourth room and made Mrs. Zhou sad and angry." In order to keep her daughter, Mrs. Thursday also wanted to take revenge on the second room couple, and deliberately spread the matter to the ears of the neighbors, although it ruined the reputation of the second room, but it also made the Zhou family lose face and became a laughing stock in his mouth. Mrs. Zhou complained that she didn't care about the overall situation, but she also knew that the most wrong thing was the second room, so she ...... She wasn't punished so severely. ”
The pillars of the family fell, and the bones were not cold, and the sons and daughters-in-law turned the world upside down, intriguing with each other, and even disregarding family affection and family reputation. How could Mrs. Zhou not be sad, how could she not despair? She was afraid that she felt that she had closed her eyes earlier, so she didn't have to watch this family disperse!
