Chapter Forty-Nine: The Beginning

In the next few days, Luo Fu still sent people to the hospital every day to pick up Xia Zhengqian and Xia Chan to see Luo Qian, and the next day, he would send Leshan to pick up Xia Jin in the evening. Under Xia Jin's careful treatment, Luo Qian's illness became more and more like a day.

After five or six days like this, that evening, no one in the hospital asked for a consultation, and Xia Zhengqian and Xia Jin returned home on time. As soon as I had dinner, I heard the mother-in-law on the second door come to spread that Luofu invited Xia Zhengqian to come over to the house for treatment.

"Didn't you say that Luo Gongzi's illness has slowly improved?" Shu Shi was worried.

has been with Xia Zhengqian for more than ten years, and she also knows the situation of the patient. If someone like this has been curing a disease, and suddenly sends someone to call for it at night, it is usually a sudden deterioration of the condition, which is not a good sign.

Xia Zhengqian was also awe-inspiring in his heart, glanced at Xia Jin, turned his head to Xia Qi and said, "You go with me." ”

Xia Qi was stunned at first, but then reacted. He also glanced at Xia Jin, and said yes to Xia Zhengqian again and again, "I'll change my clothes and come." As he spoke, he stood up and was about to go out.

"Dad, this is not good, you better take the fourth brother with you." Xia Jin said.

Xia Zhengqian's face changed, and he reprimanded: "At this time, people's lives are at stake, what are you thinking about?" Let's go! ”

Xia Jin was so frightened by his reprimand that he took two steps back, shrank behind Shu's back, and muttered in a low voice: "I know that people's lives are at stake, so I won't let my brother go." When Luo Gongzi was well, he asked the fourth brother to show his face, and now that his condition is not good, he asked his brother to take the blame. This world is really unreasonable. ”

When he said this, Shu's face changed greatly.

"Brother Qi won't go!" She said. Stretched out his hand to protect Xia Qi, with a firm expression and sharp eyes, staring at Xia Zhengqian like a hen meeting an eagle.

Xia Zhengqian ignored her and Xia Qi. Turning his head to look at Xia Jin steadily, his mouth pursed slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything, turned around and went out the door, with deep disappointment in his eyes.

Xia Jin naturally knew what Xia Zhengqian was disappointed about.

As a doctor, there should be no gain or loss in your heart. Only the life of the sick.

But because of a small battle of will, she didn't go to see patients whose conditions suddenly changed. disregarding the patient's life, in Xia Zhengqian's view, she is a person with poor character and is completely unworthy of being a doctor.

Because the Xia family is doing medicine for a living. From time to time, someone came to seek medical treatment in the middle of the night, and the concierge of the Xia Mansion had to know which ones needed to be reported to the master immediately and could not be neglected, and which ones could be delayed and reported at dawn. Therefore, they are most familiar with the names of people with heads and faces in Linjiang City.

Today, Luo Fu came to invite, and while the porter informed Xia Zhengqian, he also immediately reported to Xia Zhengshen. So when Xia Zhengqian walked to the second gate, he met Xia Zhengshen who came in a hurry. Xia Zhengshen asked worriedly, "Third brother, what's going on?" Has Luo Gongzi's condition changed? ”

Xia Zhengqian shook his head: "I don't know, the porter didn't say it." It is estimated that the people of Luo Province are not clear. ”

"Then let's go." Xia Zheng urged cautiously.

Xia Zhengqian looked in the direction of the West Courtyard: "Brother Chan is there......"

Xia Zhengshen glanced around, but did not see Xia Chan's figure, he frowned. Said: "You go, I don't know when you will come back." Children are sleepy, or don't go to Brother Zen. ”

Xia Zhengqian is a gentleman, although he is angry at the old lady's insistence on removing Xia Jin and replacing Xia Chan. But I don't plan to care. Xia Jin's remarks just now completely aroused his anger. At this time, seeing that Xia Zheng was cautious and protective, Xia Chan retreated. He suddenly became angry and said, "If Brother Chan doesn't go tonight, then you don't have to go in the future." So saying, he walked out.

"This ......" Xia Zhengshen was stunned for a moment, and then thought that Xia Zhengqian was venting his dissatisfaction with Xia Chan's name for Xia Qi.

He thought for a while and said to his entourage: "Hurry up and go to the South Courtyard to call Brother Chan, and say that the third master and I are waiting for him at the door." ”

The retinue answered.

Xia Zhengshen walked forward quickly to chase Xia Zhengqian.

He had to calm Xia Zhengqian's emotions properly. Luo Sangongzi's illness cannot be wrong, Xia Zhengqian went to Luofu with emotions, that is not good. As for Xia Chan and Xia Qi, they are also his nephews, and he really doesn't favor one or the other. But the old lady is eccentric, what can he do about it?

Xia Zhenghao and his wife and Xia Chan have always lived peacefully, how do they know the dangers involved in being a langzhong? Hearing Xia Zhengshen's words, Xia Chan hurriedly changed his clothes, rushed to the gate of the courtyard, and followed Xia Zhengqian to the car to Luofu.

And this time I went, it was one night, and the next day until dawn, the uncle and nephew did not come back.

"What the hell is going on? Have you made inquiries clearly? Xia Zhengshen washed up and asked the person who went to inquire about the news.

The villain inquired with the porter in front, but the porter only said that he did not know; The villain went to the back door again, and inquired with the person who came out to buy vegetables, and the man said that the lights in the courtyard of Luo Sangongzi were bright last night, and it was a little inappropriate to think about it. However, Mrs. Luo has always been concerned about the third son, and the food is handled by her own people, and she doesn't need the kitchen in the house at all, so he doesn't know the specific situation. ”

Xia Zhengshen threw the cloth towel into the basin, walked back and forth a few steps irritably, and waved his hand to the man: "Go and inquire again." ”

"Yes." The man answered and withdrew.

However, that whole day, Xia Zhengqian and Xia Chan did not come back. The people sent by Xia Zhengshen tried their best to find the people who came out of the mansion to inquire about the news, but they found nothing. Xia Zhengshen was even more panicked and asked the eldest lady to go to Xue's house. Half an hour later, the eldest lady came back and said that Lord Luo had not been in the yamen for a day today.

Hearing the news, Xia Zhengshen's legs were so weak that he couldn't stand for a while, collapsed on the chair, and said after a long time: "Go and call the second child to come over." ”

The eldest lady also knew that the consequences of this matter were serious, so she hurriedly sent someone to call Xia Zhenghao.

But after a while, the next person came: "The second master has not returned to see the peach blossoms, and he sent someone to say that he will not be able to come back until tomorrow evening." ”

With a "bang", Xia Zhengshen smashed the tea bowl in his hand.

"Sir!" The eldest lady was startled, stood up and shook the tea stains on her skirt, and looked at Xia Zheng for a long time and didn't know what to do.

Xia Zhengshen has always been mild-tempered. Tantrums are rare. She has been married for more than 20 years, and it is the first time she has seen Xia Zhengshen with such a big fire.

"I know all day long that I spend money indiscriminately, and I can't even see a figure at a critical moment. Dog stuff! Xia Zheng scolded cautiously.

The eldest lady naturally knew that Xia Zhengshen was scolding the second master Xia Zhenghao, and she couldn't help but feel very happy.

In this home, Xia Zhengshen has to go to the hospital to guard, and he has to take care of the fields and shops, and there is no rest all year round; The third child goes to the clinic every day, and it is very hard to go out early and return late. Only the second Xia Zhenghao used Xiucai's identity as a disguise. Look at the flowers today and visit the garden tomorrow, and don't do anything serious when you're idle. also takes a concubine from time to time, and now there are four aunts in the house, and the monthly expenses alone are a lot of money. The old lady is eccentric, every time she mentions it. The old lady asked Xia Zhengshen to hand over the affairs of the fields and shops to Xia Zhenghao, which made the eldest lady very angry.

"Go to the old lady." Xia Zhengshen stood up, put on a coat and walked out.

The eldest lady hurriedly followed.

When the two of them arrived at the upper room, as soon as they entered the hall, they saw the second lady sitting there with red eyes, talking to the old lady. Seeing the two of them coming, she didn't stand up and say hello as before, but only sat upright and wept.

The old lady patted her hand, raised her eyes and asked Xia Zhengshen, "I heard." Brother Chan followed the third child to Luofu in the middle of the night last night, and he hasn't come back yet? ”

"Yes." Xia Zheng said cautiously and sat down with a calm face. After saying these two words, there is no more.

When the old lady saw him like this, she was immediately annoyed: "Do you want me to ask a question before I can answer?" Tell me what the situation is! ”

"That's what you say. As for what happened in Luofu, why there was no news from the third child, the son didn't know, and he couldn't find out. Xia Zhengshen said with a straight face.

"What?" The old lady was anxious when she heard this, "Why can't you inquire?" Did you send someone to inquire? ”

"Hmm." Xia Zhengshen's anger at seeing the second wife here also disappeared at this time. continued, "I also went to Xue's house to inquire." said that Lord Luo didn't go to the government today. ”

"Huh?" The old lady was frightened, "Could it be that Mr. Luo has a good deal?" ”

No one answered. But everyone knows that this is probably the case.

There was silence in the room.

"What then? Our family won't be angered by the Luo family, right? The old lady asked again, her face full of trepidation.

"It should ...... No way? The eldest lady said weakly, "Luo Gongzi's illness can't even be cured by the imperial doctor, and it's normal for the third uncle to be badly cured, so you can't blame us for this, right?" ”

There was silence in the room again.

Although the eldest lady's words are reasonable, who knows what the Luo family thinks? The Xia family has no power or power, if the Luo family loses their minds and wants to find a scapegoat to vent the pain of losing their son, the Xia family is very suitable.

As early as when he came to the room, Xia Zhengshen asked someone to inform Xia You. He is the grandson of the eldest house, and he should know that something big has happened in the Xia family.

Xia Yu arrived just now, and Xia Qi came with him.

At this time, Xia Qi suddenly spoke: "If he hadn't been able to recommend himself to Luo Sangongzi for medical treatment, how could he cause such a big disaster to the family?" ”

"What?" The old lady and Xia Zhengshen asked in surprise almost at the same time.

Xia Zhengshen glanced at the old lady and continued to ask: "You mean, your third uncle gave Luo Sangongzi a doctor, and he recommended himself?" ”

Xia Qi nodded: "Exactly." If you don't believe it, wait for the fourth brother to come back, you ask the fourth brother. It was the fourth brother's little servant, Qin Gang, who listened to what Tiandong said. ”

Hearing this, the eldest lady immediately asked Xia Zhengshen: "Qin Geng doesn't seem to have gone with Brother Chan, right?" ”

Xia Zhengshen ignored her, but turned his head and ordered his subordinates: "Go and call Qin Geng." ”

The subordinate went away.

Xia You, who had been silent, opened his mouth: "Even if it is self-recommended to see Master Luo, the third uncle is not wrong." ”

"That's right? How right? If he hadn't done it himself, where would he have caused such a catastrophe? "The old lady seems to have found an embankment for catharsis.
