Chapter 153: Rumors Spread
Several shocked and panicked voices sounded in the main hall at the same time, Ji Lian's mother hurriedly supported Old Madam Qin's body, shouted at Old Madam Qin who was already unconscious, and hurriedly instructed someone to send Old Madam Qin back to the house.
Zhao Qingliu was so frightened that tears were about to fall, she never thought that she was just a few words, and this old lady Qin was so angry that she vomited blood.
She was in a hurry with her skirt and was about to catch up, but Lu Yue's black face blocked it, "Sister, what are you doing?" The corners of Zhao Qingliu's eyes were moist, glowing with water, and a trace of anxiety flashed on his face.
"What did you just say to the old lady?" Lu Yuexing's eyes stared at Zhao Qingliu.
With such a focused gaze, Zhao Qingliu couldn't help but dodge Lu Yue's eyes, "..."
Lu Yue pinched Zhao Qingliu's arm and said coldly, "Say." ”
Zhao Qingliu frowned and struggled a few times, "Oops, you pinched pain." ”
In the face of Lu Yue's questioning, Zhao Qingliu was not afraid at all, but a smile flashed between his eyebrows, and his body slammed into Lu Yue, Lu Yue subconsciously dodged, but Zhao Qingliu took advantage of the situation to break free of Lu Yue's shackles.
She rubbed her reddish arm, and there was a layer of water in her eyes, "Sister Princess, if you want to know, go check it yourself." ”
After speaking, Zhao Qingliu walked away quickly.
Lu Yue's brows furrowed even tighter, and when she went out and saw Li Hu hurrying over, the corners of Lu Yue's mouth twitched, "Li Hu, you go and inquire about the rumors about me." ”
Although Li Hu was puzzled, he was still ordered to investigate, didn't the lady usually care about these untrue remarks?
After explaining Li Hu, Lu Yue strode towards Old Madam Qin's courtyard, and as soon as she entered, she saw that the doctor was giving Old Madam Qin a needle, and Qin Zixuan was lying on the head of the bed, with crystal tears hanging on his eyelashes.
Ji Lian's mother saw Lu Yue coming in, although her expression was angry, but after all, she was a subordinate and couldn't say anything, so she turned her head away with a cold face.
Zhao Qingliu stood at the head of the bed and silently dipped the wetness in the corners of his eyes with a handkerchief, and said nothing.
Lu Yue beckoned Qin Zixuan to come over, picked up a handkerchief and gently wiped Qin Zixuan's little face, Qin Zixuan buried his little head in Lu Yue's arms, "Auntie, my grandmother she..."
Qin Zixuan said and raised his head to stare at Lu Yue.
Lu Yue touched Qin Zixuan's head and comforted: "Xuan'er, don't worry, your grandmother must be fine." ”
Zhao Qingliu listened, her heart tightened suddenly, she reached out and touched Old Madam Qin's hand, a trace of attachment flashed in her eyes that even she didn't notice, if something happened to Old Madam Qin, what should she do?
There was a faint look of regret in her eyes, obviously Old Madam Qin's health had not been good these days, how could she say such a thing to Old Madam Qin?
The doctor is an old man who often consults Old Madam Qin, and he has heard a few things about the things in the Qin Palace, but he is not a person of many words, because he knows that deaf and dumb can make people like him live a long time in the circle of nobles.
When everyone saw the doctor put away the silver needles one by one, they all immediately surrounded him, and the doctor saw a circle of people surrounding him, so he immediately moved out of the way, and Lu Yue led the doctor to the outside room when he saw it.
Zhao Qingliu preemptively said, "Doctor, how is the old lady's health?" ”
The doctor muttered, "Has this old lady had a little pain in her left chest recently?" ”
Ji Lian next to her nodded hurriedly, "Yes, doctor, the old lady has been saying that her chest hurts a little recently, I persuaded the old lady to invite you to take a look, but the old lady is stubborn and says that it is a small problem." ”
The doctor shook his head disapprovingly, "It's not a trivial problem, the old lady is too worried, she hurts her heart and lungs, and the blood has been accumulating in her chest, and she vomited it today." ”
"Doctor, what do you mean?" Lu Yue couldn't help but ask.
The doctor glanced at Lu Yue and said, "The princess doesn't have to worry too much, this old lady Qin is vomiting blood now, I will prescribe a few more pairs of conditioning Chinese medicine and eat a few meals, and the old lady Qin will be cured." ”
"However, this thought hurts the spleen, and it is still necessary to enlighten Old Madam Qin more." The doctor couldn't help but admonish.
Everyone was stunned, what? This old lady Qin was so angry that she vomited blood, and she actually got a blessing in disguise?
Zhao Qingliu and Ji Lian had different expressions on their faces, the expression on Lu Yue's face was calm, Qin Zixuan was still a child, and when he heard that his grandmother was fine, he suddenly became happy.
The doctor wrote the prescription and told Mrs. Qin to take medicine on time, so he left with the small medicine box on his back.
After Ji Lian and Zhao Qingliu left, Lu Yue breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, how could she say that this old lady Qin was also Qin Mufeng's mother, if Qin Mufeng came back and knew that she had made her mother angry, that ice cube face didn't know how to trouble her?
It's just that there is no news from this Qin Mufeng, Lu Yue touched her chin, this old lady is in a hurry.
At night, under the dim candlelight, several people sat obediently, Lu Yue held the sleepy Qin Zixuan in his arms, and Zhao Qingliu sat quietly with his head propped up.
The room was silent, and suddenly there was movement at the head of the bed.
Old Madam Qin covered her chest and coughed a few times, and when Ji Lian's mother next to her heard the movement, she hurriedly leaned over and said with a look of surprise: "Old lady, are you awake?" ”
Old Madam Qin nodded, her eyes meeting the concerned eyes of several people.
"Grandmother~" Qin Zixuan slipped off Lu Yue's lap and ran to Old Madam Qin's side in a few steps.
Old Madam Qin reached out and touched Xuan'er's outstretched hand, "Grandmother, how are you feeling?" ”
A smile appeared on the corner of Old Madam Qin's mouth, and she looked at Qin Zixuan and said, "Good boy, grandmother is fine." ”
"Old lady~" Zhao Qingliu called out Ai Ai.
Old Madam Qin looked at Zhao Qingliu's slightly swollen eyes, patted Zhao Qingliu's hand comfortingly, and when her eyes glanced at Lu Yue, she instantly moved her eyes.
Lu Yue's lips moved when she opened her mouth to shout her mother, but she didn't shout.
The atmosphere inside the room is like the rapidly condensing water, revealing an eerie tranquility.
Old Madam Qin closed her eyes and said nothing, the smile on the corner of Ji Lian's mother's mouth froze, she looked at Lu Yue, then looked at the old lady, and suddenly whispered: "The old lady should drink the medicine, but the doctor has told you that this medicine must not be delayed." ”
Old Madam Qin opened her eyes when she heard this, and Ji Lian's mother hurriedly reached out to help Old Madam Qin sit up a little, and put a pillow behind the old lady.
She reached out to take the medicine from the maid's hand, and as soon as her hand reached out to the side of the bowl, Zhao Qingliu's slender fingers were busy holding it down, "I'll come~"
Ji Lian's mother saw that the old lady did not object, so she gave up the medicine bowl and position to Zhao Qingliu.
Zhao Qingliu sat lightly on the bed, holding a jade bowl with jasper and gold silk patterns, she scooped up a spoon and blew softly, and then fed it to Old Madam Qin's mouth.
Qin Zixuan lay on the head of the bed and watched, and Zhao Qingliu fed the medicine gently.
This beautiful picture of the quiet years was deeply imprinted into Lu Yue's heart, as if they were a close family, but Lu Yue looked like an outsider from head to toe.
Lu Yue's heart was slightly sour, and when she realized this problem, she hurriedly shook her head and shook off the strange thoughts that suddenly popped up in her mind.
Old Madam Qin drank a bowl of medicine and two bowls of porridge before she said that she was full.
She glanced at the cloud board in the room and said to everyone, "It's not too early, you all go back and rest." ”
Qin Zixuan reluctantly pulled Mrs. Qin and couldn't bear to leave.
Lu Yue was about to call Qin Zixuan to come and go back to sleep with her, when she heard Old Madam Qin say to Qin Zixuan: "Xuan'er, sleep with grandmother tonight?" ”
Qin Zixuan suddenly heard that he could sleep with this grandmother, and immediately bent his eyebrows and eyes in joy.
Lu Yue and Zhao Qingliu were invited out by Ji Lian's mother.
The eyes of the two collided in the air, and the corners of Zhao Qingliu's mouth hooked a little smile, nodded towards Lu Yue, and left with a few maids.
Lu Yue stood still, looking at Zhao Qingliu's back, "Miss? Lu Yue was regained by Lu'er's voice.
Lu Yue glanced back at Lu'er, "Let's go, go back to Qingxi Hall." ”
On the second day, Lu Yue was stretching her waist and yawning and walked out, and she saw Li Hu standing straight, looking like she was waiting for her.
Lu Yue pulled a chair and sat down, took a sip of the tea brought by Lu'er, and then said, "You have something to do with me?" ”
"Back to Miss, I have traced that there are indeed a lot of rumors in the city that are unfavorable to Miss recently." Li Hu said with a glance.
"Huh?" Lu Yue drank tea and sat up straight, "What rumors?" ”
Li Hu frowned, lowered his eyes, and looked entangled and irritable, Li Hu's reaction made Lu Yue even more curious.
"What the hell?" Lu Yue's voice immediately became serious.
"That means that the prince is not here, little.. The young lady showed up every day, regardless of the difference between men and women, entering and leaving the business house, losing the identity of the princess of Qin, and said..."Li Hu said hesitantly.
"What else?" Lu Yue frowned and asked.
"Poor morality, unloading and killing donkeys, ungrateful." Li Hu's eyes closed, gritted his teeth and spit out.
The smile on the corner of Lu Yue's mouth instantly turned cold, and she looked at Li Hu and ordered in a deep voice: "Go and check, who is the one who spread these rumors?" ”
"Yes, Miss~"
Li Hu was about to raise his feet and leave, but was stopped by Lu Yue, "Has the matter of Xianglou been found out?" ”
"Miss Hui's words, I found out, it's Gu Yuanxiao." Li Hu replied.
Gu Yuanxiao? Lu Yue silently repeated the name in her heart, always feeling that this name seemed a little familiar, Li Hu reminded: "The richest man in Tianfu City now. ”
Lu Yue had a sudden expression of realization on her face, but why did this person send someone to make trouble?
Lu Yue didn't figure it out, but suddenly remembered something, so she said, "Did you recruit the old woman you sent to the government yesterday?" ”
"Recruited, was put in prison by the official master."
"What did you recruit?" Lu Yue was a little curious.
"Greedy for money." Li Hu raised his eyes and glanced at Lu Yue, and the young lady asked, is there something wrong with this old woman?
Li Hu's eyes flashed with a trace of doubt, and he hadn't figured it out yet, but he heard Lu Yue say, "You go and check the rumors first." ”
Li Hu nodded and left.
Lu Yue touched the rim of the cup with her hand, this old woman's clothes didn't look shabby, how could it be for greed for money? She thought about it, and always felt that there was something strange in this matter.
When Lu'er came out, she saw that Lu Yue was in a daze, put down the snack in her hand, and said, "Miss, do you want to pass breakfast?" ”
Lu Yue glanced at the crispy dim sum on the plate and grabbed two of them, "No." ”
