Chapter 167
This night, he still poured tea several times, helped Mrs. Qi to use the toilet several times, tucked the corners of the quilt several times, and even boiled medicine again. Xun Qingran was as hardworking and had a good temper as last night, but there were some differences. Last night, Xun Qingran tried not to wake Mrs. Qi, no matter what she did, nor did she alarm the people in the yard. But tonight, Xun Qingran took the initiative to pour tea, tucked the corners of the quilt and asked Mrs. Qi to have a close chat with her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law several times. In the middle of the night, Mrs. Qi said that her waist was sore and her legs were hurt, so she asked Xun Qingran to beat her legs. Xun Qingran felt that beating her legs could not cure her illness, so she took the initiative to boil the medicine. She still did it herself, but the medicine jar, charcoal, etc. were collected by the people of the Qi Nian Hall, so she had to shout the girl from the Qi Nian Hall again.
These girls and mothers were sleepy. They saw Xun Qingran, who was haggard in her face, took a fan and boiled medicine by herself. Her face was darkened, and she was busy in and out. When she heard that Mrs. Qi Er's voices were repeatedly dissatisfied, Xun Qingran never refuted, but just apologized and still served Mrs. Qi Er's meticulously.
In this way, Xun Qingran served Mrs. Qi Er for a moment without leaving her clothes. Mrs. Qi Er finally announced that her illness was cured, and she would not take medicine anymore, nor would Xun Qingran serve her again.
"I know that my wife has worked hard, but how can I get it if I don't cure my illness. My wife should take a few more doses of medicine and take care of her for a few more days." Xun Qingran advised softly, "My wife is not afraid of hard work. Now serving her wife is a blessing for her."
Mrs. Qi Er had a bitter face. If Xun Qingran was taken care of, she would not torture Xun Qingran, but she would really make her life apart.
"No need, I'm already great. You can go back and take a break, it's been a pain these days." Mrs. Qi Er had no choice but to smile.
Xun Qingran smiled indulgently, just like seeing an ignorant child who insisted on saying that his illness was cured because he was afraid of seeing a doctor and taking medicine.
Mrs. Qi Er had to get out of bed, put on her own clothes, ate another bowl of rice, and even walked a few steps agilely to show Xun Qingran to prove that she was indeed good.
"Since the wife insists so much, please ask the imperial physician to come and have a look." Xun Qingran said last.
Someone still invited Doctor Lu to take the pulse of Mrs. Qi Er.
"Madam, this disease has been cured." After some searching, hearing and asking questions, Doctor Lu came to the conclusion.
Xun Qingran was still worried behind the screen and asked the imperial physician to carefully diagnose and treat him.
Mrs. Qi Er insisted that she was already well. For Xun Qingran's concern about her bad face, she only said that it was because of her illness and she had reduced her diet.
Xun Qingran was a little loose, "Is that true?"
Doctor Lu nodded, "Mrs.'s illness is cured. If you are worried, just take it slowly in your diet."
Mrs. Qi Er agreed repeatedly.
Only then did Xun Qingran walk out from behind the screen to congratulate Mrs. Qi Er.
"Thank God, my wife's illness has finally cured. I'm going to burn incense and thank the Buddha."
Perhaps seeing that Mrs. Qi Er recovered from illness, Xun Qingran's long-standing tense nerve suddenly relaxed. Before Doctor Lu could walk out of the gate of the Qi Nian Hall, Xun Qingran fainted in front of Mrs. Qi Er's bed.
Malt and Aster hugged Xun Qingran and cried in anxiety. Baozhu and Platycodon ran out, one invited Doctor Lu back, and the other went to Yinianju to ask Rong.
Doctor Lu had a pulse for Xun Qingran and asked him to make ginseng soup for Xun Qingran to drink, so he followed the little girl to the outside room.
"The fourth grandma fainted because she was too tired. This did not require medication, but she just needed to have a good rest." Dr. Lu said.
After hearing this, Mrs. Qi was a little dissatisfied and thought that Xun Qingran was deliberately pretending to be accustomed to show her merits.
"This child is a honest man. In order to serve her mother-in-law's illness, he became tired and sick." Rong sighed.
"Teaching is still a trivial matter, but there is another thing," said Dr. Lu, a little hesitant.
"The old doctor just said it straight."
"I took my pulse and found that there was a dampness and cold air in my fourth grandmother's body. This was fine for the man, but on the young woman, I was afraid that it would hinder the childbirth. I dared to say, even though the weather is getting warmer, young people should not be too cold to get cold too early." Doctor Lu said as he accidentally swept the blue brick floor in the house.
Just now, Xun Qingran fainted on the ground, and the room suddenly became chaotic. Malt and Ziyuan only hugged their master and cried loudly, not letting others touch Fang and Doctor Lu when they arrived, they also saw Xun Qingran's bed rolls placed under Mrs. Qi Er's bed.
Everyone knows that Xun Qingran is serving in the house of Mrs. Qi Er. There is only Mrs. Qi Er's bed in this house. So no one can tell where Xun Qingran slept at night.
"Ah?" Rong was shocked, "Is there a way to cure this?"
"I first wrote a few prescriptions for recuperation. Grandma IV may be able to recover." Doctor Lu said, and indeed wrote a few prescriptions for diet therapy.
Rong thanked Doctor Lu and sent someone to send Doctor Lu out.
Mrs. Qi Er was also beside her at this time, and her mood was a little complicated. This was better than the result she expected, but it also made her feel a little uneasy.
Rong turned his face and glanced at Mrs. Qi Er lightly.
Mrs. Qi Er wiped the corners of her eyes with a veil, "What should I do? I think this imperial doctor is too careful. Ran Yatou is so young..."
"Go back to the old lady, madam, I fed the fourth grandma and drank some ginseng soup. The fourth grandma has woken up." Then a little girl came in to report.
Rong stood up and wanted to see Xun Qingran.
At this moment, the door curtain was lifted, but Xun Qingran walked in with the help of the girls.
"You kid, you are like this, why don't you rest well?" Rong looked at the haggard Xun Qingran and said angrily.
Xun Qing was dressed in a garment and was not untied to serve Mrs. Qi. There was no moisture here. She had not changed her clothes for three days and had no decorations on her body. Because these three days were really hard, she was really haggard and pitiful.
"How can I feel sorry for the old lady because I worry about me?" Xun Qingran said.
"You child, I don't let you serve me, you just don't listen. Now that I'm not going back, I'll raise you, so I'll worry about you."
Mrs. Qi Er carefully looked at Xun Qingran's appearance and felt much more comfortable. In the past few days, she and Xun Qingran have been together, and she knows best how tired Xun Qingran is.
Xun Qingran lowered her head and knelt down without a sound.
"Ran Yatou, what are you doing?" Rong asked.
"I already know what the Imperial Doctor said. Please give me a break."
With a word, Xun Qingran started crying silently.
These tears are real and from the heart. Xun Qingran really cried. When she entered the Qi Mansion, although she looked glorious, she was trembling as if she was walking on thin ice. Only she knew it. But she always had to pretend to be smiling in front of others, and no matter who it was, she could not not take it to heart after hearing that others wanted to harm her. The grievances of these days burst out together, and Xun Qingran cried out in disguise.
Xun Qingran asked to leave the court, but Mrs. Qi Er was even happier.
"Serving my wife is my duty, and I am not careful if I fail to do anything. The inheritance of children is a family matter. Only by leaving can I fulfill the filial piety of the Fourth Master. Please ask my wife to take the initiative to divorce me, marry a lady from a famous family, be filial to the wife, and make her happy. I am grateful to my wife for her great kindness."
Xun Qingran said while crying.
Rong asked someone to help Xun Qingran, but Xun Qingran fell to the ground crying, asking Mrs. Qi to rest.
"If the wife thinks that the reputation of divorced wife is not good, I just ask the wife to give me a clear way." Xun Qingran begs Mrs. Qi.
This talked about Mrs. Qi Er's heart disease, and Mrs. Qi Er's face turned pale, "What are you talking nonsense, what are you talking nonsense."
Rong stood up to help Xun Qingran, "Good boy, don't say such stupid words. The imperial physician is just afraid that you will be out of control because of this and prevent it from happening. You are still young and have a narrow mind."
"This matter is related to the children. The old lady feels sorry for me and does not dislike me... I, I, I will not be pleased with people. Now I ask myself to leave the court and can I still have some decentness... In the future, who knows if I have a fate to respect the old lady..." Xun Qingran stood up and swallowed even more.
"At a young age, how can you say such things?" Rong said angrily, "...You are the good wife of my Qi family. Who dares to divorce you? I will drive her out first."
Mrs. Qi Er was sitting on pins and needles.
Xun Qingran had to give Rong face. Rong had already said this, so Xun Qingran gradually stopped talking. Rong ordered someone to carry a sedan chair and send Xun Qingran back to Ningyuanju, and told someone to take good care of her. Then Madam Jiang took Baozhu to Yinianju and took her treasured old ginseng to nourish Xun Qingran's body.
After seeing Xun Qingran away, Rong stood up with a cane.
"Come with me." Rong walked to the door, and did not look back at the second wife, but just ordered.
When he was in Yi Nian, Mrs. Qi Er followed Rong into the room with some anxiety.
Rong sat on the couch in front and looked at Mrs. Qi Er lightly. Unlike before, she let Mrs. Qi Er sit, she had no other words.
The girl and the woman who served in the room had already left when they saw the opportunity.
"Old lady?" Mrs. Qi Er felt aroused in her heart when Rong saw it, and asked tentatively.
"You still remember the old lady, I thought you had forgotten me, the immortal, and had lost your kingly law." Rong said.
Mrs. Qi Er felt a little upset, but she didn't want to give in easily. Now she has a group of children, her son gets married and has children, and her eldest daughter goes to the palace to become a concubine. Rong treats her as favored as before, and always gives her face in front of others. Even when there is only two mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, Rong is quite tolerant of her.
"It seems that I have to ask me to become a monk." Rong stared at Mrs. Qi Er.
Mrs. Qi Er struggled for a while, but she slowly knelt down.
Rong snorted coldly and asked, "Do you know your mistake?"
"Daughter-in-law, wife." Mrs. Qi Er was mute and had no way to say anything about her suffering. She had intended to cure Xun Qingran, but she was also cured by Xun Qingran very badly. Otherwise, she would still be "ill" at this time.
"My wife is wronged." Mrs. Qi Er felt wronged.
"Stop." Rong hit the ground with a crutch and angrily shouted, "Where have you lived at this age? If you let you go, my family will be defeated by you."
