Ji Shu poured softly into Xi Tao's arms.
Xi Tao's tears came as soon as she said it, and she cried: "Young lady! You can't be fine! Doctor! Doctor!! β
The government doctor, who had been waiting by the carriage for a long time, rushed forward and immediately called for the pulse.
The mother-in-law was frightened, and seeing that the onlookers were all craned their necks to look this way, she hurriedly said:
"Let's help the young lady to the shop first!"
"No! Madame's pulse is disordered, don't move her for the time being! β
The house doctor took out a sugar pill and fed it to Ji Shu.
"Xi Tao, I said yesterday that Madame is sick from hard work! You must recuperate, and you must not worry about it for a year or two! Thou shalt not toil! It's only one night! How could Madame be so weak! You quickly tell the young lady what she ate and did yesterday, I have the right medicine! β
"It's all the slave's fault, the old lady and the eldest lady are anxious about the shop, and the young lady is limited to reading all the account books of the shop in March and April within one night, and the young lady lights the lamp and stays up all night, plus yesterday went to the Bofu for a banquet...... I haven't closed my eyes for about fifteen or sixteen hours......"
Doctor: "What a sin! The young lady has worked hard for six years, and her body is already weak, this, isn't thisβsick on sick! β
"Hurry up and help the young lady get into the carriage and go home!"
The carriage galloped away, and the merchants and people near Yunxiafang heard it and made a noise.
"The ladies of this Hou Mansion are too cold-blooded! Shengsheng forced his daughter-in-law to vomit blood, this is for the sake of money, even disregarding the daughter-in-law's life! β
"I heard that Mrs. Nahou was dissatisfied with her daughter-in-law, and gave her daughter-in-law's stewardship to her sister-in-law, but as a result, the shop owed debts everywhere, and led wolves into the house, and the shop was ruined!"
"Phew! I didn't believe in my daughter-in-law at the beginning, but now I want my daughter-in-law to wipe her aunt's ass when she is sick, what kind of person is this! β
"It's really a bad mother-in-law, a bad grandmother, it's hard for the second young lady, what a good wife, marrying into such a family!"
ββ¦β¦β
The old lady's mother-in-law stood in the middle of the street with a white face, and the people on both sides pointed at her.
She raised her hand to cover her face with her sleeve and ran away from the backyard with her head down.
The officials of Shuntian Mansion dispersed the crowd watching the excitement and were about to go home, but saw that Kang Liancheng was still in the middle of the road, looking at Ji Shu's carriage from afar.
The head catcher stepped forward, "Lord Zhizhong, the second young lady is really pitiful, what do you think about this case now?" β
"Let's go post a wanted notice first. Then you have taken a look at the pawnshops in the city, and you will search the city, and if these people have already run away, they should not be able to run far. β
Kang Liancheng thought that he would recover the losses of Yunxiafang as soon as possible, and Ji Shu would be able to get better if he was in the Wuding Marquis Mansion.
Thinking of Ji Shu's weak appearance, he raised his eyebrows with a complicated expression.
At the other end, the mother-in-law ran back to the Hou Mansion and went straight to the old lady's yard.
"Old lady! It's a big deal, it's a big deal! β
"What's wrong, panicking. came back so soon, Ji Shu's shop has been checked? β
The old lady stood up.
The mother-in-law knelt on the footsteps and said with a bitter face: "The young lady vomited blood in Yunxiafang!" β
"Huh?"
The old lady was shocked, "Vomiting blood?" It's true! β
"Really, many people near Yunxiafang have seen it, and they all say that you and the eldest lady are ruthless, and you are cruel to the young lady......"
The old lady rolled her eyes, collapsed on the bed, kept stroking her heart, shook her hand and called out to Mother Song on the side:
"Hurry up, put the ginseng, angelica, and ejiao in the treasury...... Anyway, as long as it's a good thing to replenish qi and blood, it's all sent to Changle Academy! I must save Ji Shu's life! β
is going to die, Ji Shu is really angry, what should she do with her shop!
"Don't worry, old lady, the old slave will send it immediately!"
After Song's mother left, her mother-in-law stepped forward on her knees, "Old lady, there are many discussions outside now, how should I deal with it?" β
"This damn Ji Shu, he's sick like this, what are you going out for! Cause a lot of trouble for the old body! β
The old man thought for a while, and said painfully: "You go, go to my private treasury and get a thousand taels, and go to the pharmacy to grab medicine for her." Remember, catch the expensive ones if you catch them! β
"The old slave understands! The old slave is going! β
At that time, in the Changle Courtyard, Xi Tao and the house doctor helped Ji Shu to enter the door, and after closing the door, the master and servant glanced at each other and laughed.
There were still people outside the house, and neither of them dared to laugh too loudly.
Xi Tao covered her stomach and said angrily: "Miss, the slave is no longer good...... The slave smiled and her stomach hurt......"
Ji Shu smiled and took out a betel nut from his sleeve pocket and stuffed it for her.
"Taste it, it tastes good."
The doctor smiled: "Madam, you can't eat too much betel nut, and if you eat too much, you will get dental disease." β
Xi Tao chewed and said, "This color really looks like blood." β
Ji Shu drank a sip of water before going out, and the 'blood' he spit out was really bluffing at first glance, if it weren't for Xi Tao knowing the inside story, he would really think that Ji Shu was 'terminally ill'.
"Young ladyβ"
Xitao helped Ji Shu to sit on the pillow, and Mother Song looked inside.
The house doctor pretended to diagnose Ji Shu's pulse, and Song's mother beckoned the subordinates behind her to carry the medicinal herbs into the house.
She ran to the side of the bed and said respectfully, "Young lady, you can recuperate with peace of mind." The old lady sent you a lot of medicinal materials to replenish qi and blood. Doctor, you must cure the young lady! β
"Please tell the old lady to rest assured, and I will do my best in the future."
Ji Shu sat lazily, and she didn't need to perform too hard in front of Mother Song.
"The account books are all on the table, you can bring them back to the old lady."
"Huh!"
Mother Song was about to leave, when Ji Shu suddenly said, "Slow." β
"Doctor, you can bring those medicinal herbs down to dispense the medicine."
The house doctor answered, respectfully withdrew with the medicinal herbs, and closed the door.
Mother Song picked up the hem of her clothes and knelt on the ground, Ji Shu said, "You have done a good job in the past few months." β
"Thank you, young lady, can the young lady tell the old slave to take a look at her son, just one glance!"
"I'll ask him to write you a letter another day. As for the meeting, forget it, I'm afraid you'll delay the business. β
Mother Song didn't dare to ask for more, it was good to have a letter, she said positively:
"After the young lady left Beijing, the old slave listened to your instructions, knocked on the bottom of the bed every day when the old lady was asleep, or woke up the old lady in the middle of the night, and told her that she had a dream, what the hell, Hades, or something! The old lady was convinced, and now even if the old slave didn't make up stories, she always thought that she had dreamed of the underworld, dreamed of ghosts or something. The old slave looked at ...... And within a few months, she couldn't hold on. β
Song's mother was scared from the beginning, but now she is impatient, and only when the old lady dies can she and her son be relieved.
Ji Shu said lightly: "Don't make any claims, I don't want to keep filial piety for her now." β
The filial piety period is three years, how can she reconcile and leave when the old lady dies, and how can she fulfill her promise to Qi Ye?
Before the change, death was death, Ji Shu had gambled all his life on bringing down the Marquis of Wuding's mansion, but now it is different, she has concerns, and the old lady can't die too quickly.
"You take care of yourself, at least...... Let her live until the birthday of the Marquis of Wuding two months later. β
Within two months, she should be able to reconcile with Qi Chengxu.
"Yes, the old slave remembers."

Two flowers bloomed, one on each branch, and Li Shi came out of the jewelry shop, and glanced at the person behind him, rolling his eyes.
"It's like a dog skin plaster, it's really annoying."
