Chapter 81: Intercession
At this time, Xiahou Shuang suddenly said: "Early this morning, the housekeeper in the ancestral hall came to report that the third sister had a high fever. β
"My sister is sick?"
"Doesn't it burn badly?"
As soon as she heard this, the old lady and Xiahou Bo asked at the same time.
I saw Xiahou Shuang get up unhurriedly and said: "I have already asked the maid around me to ask Dr. Lin to come over and take a look, I should know what is going on soon, but the third sister is sick, and it is not suitable to stay in the ancestral hall anymore." β
When the old lady heard this, she looked around the people sitting in the room and asked, "Second, third, how do you deal with this matter now?"
The second old man, Xiahou Lin, who had been silent, coughed and said: "The state has national laws, family rules, and the third niece should be severely punished if he has no respect for the grass and the lives of the people. β
"The second brother's words are wrong. The third old man, Xia Houting, objected: "How can the third niece be said to be the eldest brother's bloodline, and she is also the daughter of the Hou Mansion, and the golden branches and jade leaves are delicate. Now that she is sick, she should move the person out as soon as possible and take care of her, and as for teaching her this matter, she should take her time and not be in a hurry. β
The old lady looked at the two sons who were holding their own words, looked at Xiahou Shuang and asked, "What do you say, frost girl?"
Xiahou Shuang said unhurriedly: "The granddaughter agrees with the third uncle's idea, the ancestral hall is dark and cold, and the third sister is really not suitable to be in it if she is sick." β
Judging from the worried look of my grandmother just now, she must have hoped to release Xiahou Yan, even if she didn't have her own plea, it would be the same, it would be better to be a favor.
When Xiahou Bo heard this, he cast a grateful look at Xiahou Shuang, his mother and sister slandered and cursed the eldest sister so much behind his back, but the eldest sister thought about the third sister everywhere.
Later, his mother and third sister said behind her back that the eldest sister was not good, and she had to defend the eldest sister even if she risked angering the two, and Xiahou Bo secretly made up her mind.
After Xiahou Shuang finished speaking, the old lady nodded and said: "What the frost girl said is right, the ancestral hall is indeed not a place to recuperate, so let's send someone to carry her out." β
Xiahou Bo couldn't wait to visit Xiahou Yan, sitting on the side and fidgeting, the old lady saw this and said, "Go and see your third sister." β
After getting it, Xiahou Bo rushed to Cuizhuxuan like an arrow, and when he entered the house, he saw Xiahou Yan's face flushed, but he hadn't seen his eyes sunken for a few days, and his complexion was not good.
Xiahou Bo was a little sad, how noisy she was on weekdays was also her sister-in-law, after all, blood was thicker than water, and she felt uncomfortable seeing her like this.
After looking around, he didn't see Dr. Lin, and asked the maid next to his sister, Hongxiu, "Did the third sister and doctor see it?"
Hongxiu saluted and said: "Doctor Lin just took a look, and said that it was the invasion of the liver fire stagnation and evil wind that caused the high fever to not go away, and he prescribed a few pairs of medicines and left. β
Xiahou Bo and the other maids boiled the medicine, woke up Xiahou Yan, and carefully served the medicine.
Xiahou Yan saw that her younger brother carefully blew the medicine and waited for it to be hot before letting herself drink it, she was locked up in the ancestral hall for a few days, her mother was grounded, and now she only has her younger brother by her side and cares for herself.
My heart is sour and resentful, my feet were injured by this Xiahou Shuang that day, if I didn't have her, I wouldn't have been injured, and I wouldn't rack my brains for the queen's flower banquet, let alone fall into the disease of sloping feet!
Only by letting her die can she relieve the hatred in her heart!
Xiahou Bo said a few words to the third sister and didn't respond, so he couldn't help but wonder a little, and gently tugged Xiahou Yan's sleeve, Xiahou Yan was startled and asked, "What are you doing?"
Xiahou Bo said: "Third sister, since you have come out, don't make your grandmother angry anymore, and in a few days I will go to ask my grandmother to let her lift her mother's grounding, and then our family will be reunited." β
Xiahou Yan snorted coldly in her heart, she was still so naΓ―ve, she thought about it beautifully, but it was a pity that grandmother could listen to you so much, but there was no displeasure on her face, and she said softly: "What my brother said is that I also asked my younger brother to go and ask my grandmother early to let my mother come out quickly." β
Xiahou Bohe had seen his sister speak so gently to him, and he didn't think much about it, but he felt that his sister's temperament had become much better after entering the ancestral hall for two days, and he said with joy in his heart: "Third sister, don't worry, I'll go and ask my grandmother tomorrow." β
suddenly remembered and said: "Actually, the third sister was able to come out this time, thanks to the eldest sister, the third sister should not say that the eldest sister is not good in the future." β
As soon as she heard Xiahou Bo mention Xiahou Shuang, Xiahou Yan only felt the blood surging upward, and she bit her lip to swallow the curse that was about to come out of her mouth, and asked without changing her face: "Why is she willing to help me speak, you come and listen." β
Xiahou Bo didn't notice the third sister's expression, and told himself what happened in Yanhe Hall today.
Xiahou Yan didn't think that Xiahou Shuang would be so kind when she heard this, she felt that she must have some kind of calculation in her heart, and thought of this and said to Xiahou Bo: "According to what you say, it's really thanks to the eldest sister, I still complained in the past, it is indeed my fault, I will go to Biluoxuan to thank the eldest sister in person another day." β
When Xiahou Bo heard this, he felt that his sister had finally opened his mind, and his heart was full of joy: "I'll go too, let's thank you in person together." β
Xiahou Yan said a few more perfunctory words casually, the effect of the medicine began to come up, and she felt sleepy, Xiahou Bo saw this scene, and told Xiahou Yan to rest and get up and leave.
When Xiahou Yan woke up, it was already evening, and she felt that the fever had subsided, and her body was a lot easier.
I only felt hungry in my stomach, Hongxiu brought the food, and after Xiahou Yan's meal, she asked Hongxiu to help her go to Yating to see the Lin family.
Lin was talking to Mama Wang and didn't know what happened to Yan'er after she came out, when she heard someone knocking on the door, and it didn't take long for Yuxia to help Xiahou Yan walk in.
When Xiahou Yan saw Lin, she cried out: "Mother." β
Lin Shi hurriedly walked a few steps and hurriedly greeted her, and after letting her sit down, he said, "Yan'er, why are you here, your body is not well yet, you should have a good rest." β
Xiahou Yan looked up at Lin, only to see that her hair was slightly messy, her face was pale, and her eyes were a little red, obviously she had just cried.
"As soon as I came out, I was anxious to come to see my mother, what happened to my mother?" asked Xiahou Yan.
"Yan'er, you have suffered, I can't help but ...... just thinking of the hardships you have endured in the past few days" Before Lin finished speaking, he began to cry again.
"Madam, you see that the third lady is doing well now, so don't be sad. Mama Wang comforted.
"Yan'er, you listen to your mother, remember to please your grandmother in the future, I thought about the past few times we have fallen into disadvantage with Xiahou Shuang, and it is not because your grandmother is partial, so as long as you please her, this kind of thing will not happen again. β
"It's just because of her grandmother's support for Xiahou Shuang that she is becoming more and more arrogant, if her grandmother is gone, look at how she jumps!" Xiahou Yan showed a vicious look in her eyes and cursed.
Xiahou Yan's words reminded the Lin family, yes, if the old woman is gone, the entire Hou Mansion will not fall into her own hands!
The evil thoughts in his heart were like grass vines that had grown and slowly took root and sprouted and entwined in Lin's heart.
