Chapter 54 Inexplicable low-grade fever (second watch)
The old lady left Jiang Hongsheng behind and asked in detail about the Gu family's marriage.
Although Jiang Hongsheng thought about Gu's body in his heart, he knew that this matter had to be explained to his mother one by one, otherwise he would leave a curse.
The old lady has never waited to see Gu's for more than ten years, and at first glance she saw the letter, and she wrote it clearly, reasonably, and was so angry that she rose into smoke and made a big move, so she had the kneeling Buddha hall.
Now that I heard it, I realized that it was not that Mrs. Jiang insisted on going her own way when she married the Gu family, but that her good son fell in love with someone else's girl, and he insisted on breaking up the girl's marriage by relying on Jiang's family.
The old lady threw the letter at her son angrily, and said angrily: "My good second master, you can take a look for yourself." ”
When Jiang Hongsheng saw the letter, he was furious, and he wanted to tear up the piece of paper in front of him, but after thinking about it, he held back and stuffed the letter into his sleeve.
"Mother, the person who wrote the letter is insidious and vicious, and the scorpion is hearted, if someone deliberately makes a fuss about this, Yuzhen's reputation in this life will be ruined. The marriage of the three children in the future will also be greatly discounted, mother, this is to destroy the second room of my Jiang family. ”
The old lady has been through ups and downs for decades, and after thinking about it, she understands the truth.
said angrily: "Check, you must find out for me." You are in the light, people are in the dark, the second master has to guard against it! Mama Qian, you pick some good supplements from the treasury and send them to the second wife, and by the way, make amends for my second wife, I wronged her today. ”
Mama Qian saluted and went out.
After the old lady left, she hurriedly called Jiang Hongsheng to her and said softly: "I heard that the south is not very peaceful these days, if you say this, will you come to the Gu clan clearly, but in fact you are coming to you?" ”
Jiang Hongsheng nodded, then shook his head and said, "It doesn't look like it, who would take the old account from more than ten years ago to talk about it?" The mother is relieved that her son can investigate this matter carefully. ”
The mother and son talked for a while. Jiang Hongsheng hurried back to Qiushui Courtyard in a hurry.
Gu had just finished the acupuncture, Xin Yao was carefully taking the external medicine to apply to the bruises, and when she saw her father entering the door, she handed the medicine to him. He cleaned his hands, waved everyone away, and took his brother away.
After applying cold water and applying needles to the knee, the bruises appear more and more hideous.
Jiang Hongsheng's heart ached, and his mother was in the front, so he couldn't help but bow down and be small, and spoke softly.
At night, Gu was groggy and had a fever. Jiang Hongsheng was so anxious that he didn't know what to do, so he scolded the maid and mother-in-law in front of the Gu family, and the people of Qiushui Courtyard turned their backs. After a moment, the upper room was a little quieter.
For four days in a row, Gu looked unhindered. At night, the low-grade fever continued, and within a few days the person lost weight. After changing the pulse of several doctors, they all said that the cold in the body had been removed, and the pulse was normal, but the cause of the high fever could not be found.
Jiang Hongsheng guarded the Gu family for three nights in a row, and he had to go to the yamen during the day, and the whole person was haggard.
Jiang Xinyao felt that something was wrong.
Mother looked soft and weak. The body has always been healthy, and there are few small illnesses on weekdays, how can you kneel down and get a strange illness, and the abnormality is a demon.
I couldn't take care of it at the moment, so early in the morning of the fourth day, I asked Li's mother to bring some medicine residue. and the prescription prescribed by the doctor, secretly went to the Tai Hospital to find Du Tianxiang and asked what happened.
As soon as Mother Li's front foot left, the girl in the old lady's room invited Miss Four to go.
Xin Yao was helpless and settled Brother Hao. Only then did he go to Guiyun Hall. Mother's illness, the affairs of the house, no one can take over. The old lady was old, and Wu was pregnant, so Xin Yao naturally took over, and by the way, she had to take care of Brother Hao, so busy that her feet didn't touch the ground.
The old lady stroked the Buddha beads and looked at Jiang Xinyao, who bowed her head and was silent, and said slowly: "Four girls, I look a little strange about the second wife's illness, maybe it is not necessary to collide with any god and Buddha!" ”
Jiang Xinyao rarely spoke alone with the old lady over the years, and only coped with a few words when there were many people.
For her, Xin Yao has always had no good feelings, and she can avoid it. Not only because of her grandfather, but also because of the old lady's attitude towards her mother and her over the years, made her completely chilled.
What's more, in the case of Pang Cong, the old lady planned to sacrifice her at that time to fulfill Jiang Xinshan. As far as this calculation is concerned, Xin Yao has to guard against it, so when talking to the old lady, she is twelve points careful.
"Old lady, according to the granddaughter, let's ask a doctor to take a look, the doctor in the palace is better than the outside!"
The old lady said, "When your father went out in the morning, he confessed, and I have already sent someone to invite him." This is because of me, and I have wronged your mother. ”
Xin Yao snorted coldly in her heart, but said with a smile on her face: "It's also the villain who is responsible for it, so there is such a difficulty as a mother, and the old lady doesn't have to blame herself." ”
The old lady sighed: "You are young, you have little experience, and some diseases and disasters are all bumped into unclean things, and they cannot be cured for a long time." Your mother's illness is good during the day, she can eat and drink, but at night, she has a low-grade fever that does not go away, something is not right. ”
Jiang Xinyao said: "The old lady is an elderly person, and she naturally knows a lot, according to the old lady, what is the solution to this disease?" ”
The old lady sighed, "What solution can there be?" It's just begging the Bodhisattva to burn high incense. ”
Mama Qian hurriedly said: "Fourth Miss, the old slave said a few words that should not be said, and some things cannot be fully believed or disbelieved. The old lady couldn't eat or sleep for the past two days, and she was always worried about the illness of the second wife. Miss didn't want to take a trip, ask the second wife for a sign, worship a Buddha, pray for a blessing, maybe you can go to the filth, and the illness will be cured. The fourth lady still remembers that she fainted in Suzhou Mansion back then, and the left doctor couldn't do it, and the right doctor couldn't see it well, and later she learned that it was the soul of the old man who followed. ”
Jiang Xinyao covered her eyes, turned her mind a few times, and said, "Old lady, when is my granddaughter going?" ”
The old lady said: "This matter of seeking Buddha, sincerity is spiritual, any time can be, our house to the West Mountain, one back and forth, one day is enough." You can choose your own day, bring more girls, mother-in-law to follow, and bring a few more nursing homes. No matter how bad it is, I'll let Mama Qian accompany you. ”
Xin Yao got up and said, "That's not necessary, I'll discuss it with my father when I go back, and I'll go back on a day." Old lady, if there is nothing to do, my granddaughter will go back first, and my mother is gone, and I am not very relieved. ”
The old lady nodded, waited for the person to walk away, and said quietly: "Mama Qian, I don't know if it's useful to burn incense and worship the Buddha." Wait a while and see what the Imperial Doctor has to say. Gu's disease, the second master has no mind when he is on an errand, if there are three long and two short, he will not hate me as a mother. ”
"Old lady, and relieved, the second wife's body has always been good, and it is not an incurable disease, but it is just a fever at night, and it is good to take a few patches of medicine."
……
In the evening, when Jiang Hongsheng came back from the yamen, he called Xin Yao outside and asked the imperial doctor what he said.
Xin Yao was thinking about this, and when the doctor came today, he didn't see anything wrong, he just said that he didn't say anything serious, and the prescription he prescribed was the same as the medicine used in the previous ones. The father and daughter both had sad faces and didn't think about tea and dinner.
Xin Yao went back to the room, used half a bowl of clear porridge, and lost her appetite again. It just so happened that Mother Li came back from outside, and the light clouds and the light moon gently closed the door with a lot of eyes, and the two stayed outside to do needlework.
Mother Li drank a few sips of tea and said, "Miss, I am tired of my mother today, it's really unfortunate that Imperial Doctor Du went to the palace to ask for a safe pulse for which lady, and waited for a long time before waiting for someone." Doctor Du said that judging from the prescription and the medicine residue, there is no big problem, and the medicine is also very mild, which is also consistent with the illness of the second wife. ”
Jiang Xinyao said sadly: "Even he said so, how is this good?" ”
Mother Li said again: "Miss, Imperial Doctor Du said that this is not a serious illness, come to our house in person early tomorrow morning, and take a look." ”
Xin Yao breathed a sigh of relief, with a hint of a smile on her face, and frowned again: "Hey, it's really unfortunate, the old lady called me today, saying that my mother's illness is a little strange, I'm afraid that something has collided, the incense in Qingliang Temple is the most effective, and it is good to say goodbye." I told my father, and he told me to go out early tomorrow morning. ”
Mother Li hurriedly said: "Miss, I'll accompany you, I'm the best at this kind of thing." In the past, the people in the village were poor and had no money to see a doctor, so they went to the temple to ask for a rune, burned it to ashes, and drank it, but it worked. ”
Xin Yao smiled and said, "Mom, it's just a coincidence, how can there be such a miraculous thing." According to what you say, those doctors and doctors can go home and farm. In my opinion, the old lady is a little remorseful. My father was sick and went to the doctor. That's it, I won't go tomorrow, it doesn't matter if it's a day or two late, you can go to Qiushui Courtyard for a while, and find Chunlan to have a message, so that your mother can feel more at ease. By the way, is there an echo over there in Yiyuan? ”
Mother Li said lightly: "Miss, the root of this matter is in the south, it's only been four days, how can it be so fast?" ”
Xin Yao counted the days, but no, it was only four days. In the past few days, I have been worried about my mother's body, but I have a feeling that I am living like a year, so I sighed: "It's me who is in a hurry." ”
Xin Yao thought for a while, and then said, "Who is the girl who helped her mother boil medicine?" ”
Mother Li said: "Miss, the second wife's medicine was boiled by Chunlan herself, there will be no problem!" ”
As soon as Xin Yao heard that it was Chunlan, she lost her voice, so she had to wait for Du Tianxiang to come tomorrow before making plans.
On this day and night, Gu's still had a low-grade fever, and everyone in Qiushui Courtyard had a hard night, all with red eyes and dizzy brains, secretly complaining of bitterness.
……
Early in the morning of the second day, Xin Yao was dressed neatly and waited in Qiushui Courtyard early.
When Du Tianxiang arrived at Jiang's mansion, it was already three o'clock in the morning, and Jiang Hongsheng had already left the mansion.
Mother Li led people into Qiushui Courtyard, and the second wife was leaning weakly on the head of the bed, and Xin Yao fed some clear porridge. Although the low-grade fever at night was not a big problem, it was the most physically exhausting, and Gu Shi became more and more weak.
Du Tianxiang carefully checked the pulse for about half a cup of tea, except for the fact that the pulse was a little weak, he couldn't see any major problems, and saw that the bruises on his knees had also subsided a lot, and he was silent.
When Gu Shi saw it, his heart sank: "Du Gongzi, my illness can't be cured?" ”(..)
