Dong Gong Mei

Chapter 772

At night, Jingxiu Garden.

The lights flickered and the crying was faint.

The cry was not Xu Yunjiao's, but Zhao Chengyan's.

"How about it?"

The old lady went to the Buddhist hall to burn three sticks of incense, and then returned to the house. When she stepped on the threshold, she was filled with a strong smell of blood, and when she heard the intermittent crying, her eyes suddenly went dark, and she almost fell to the ground. fall down.

"The old madam is back!" Nanny Song has sharp eyes, hurriedly stood up to greet her, and grabbed Zhao Chengyan who was beside her: "Sister Yan, don't cry."

The old lady held Nanny Zhou's hand and stabilized her mind, only then did she see clearly the scene in the house——

What a mess!
Xu Yunjiao was lying on the bed, already in a coma.

Zhao Chengyan knelt by the bed, sobbing and crying.

The third wife, Mrs. Sun, held an empty medicine bowl, and secretly wiped away her tears with her face turned away.

A few old nuns were in a hurry, twisting the hot towels to wipe Xu Yunjiao's face, bumping each time, either hitting the wooden basin, or not grasping the cotton towels tightly.

The people in the room seemed to have their souls taken out of them, crying and shaking, no one could take charge!
Oh, and it's not like there's no one in charge!
"Go and light two more lamps, sheepskin hexagonal lamps."

The old lady followed the sound and landed on the bedside.

Zhao Xiwei stood there, leaving everyone with a straight back, like a proud snow pine, upright and firm.

She explained one by one in an orderly manner: "The light is soft, so let's put it by the bed."

"Bring a few more sets of drying clothes, and I will change them for her later."

"The decoction to stop the bleeding must be prepared at all times, for fear of recurrence of the disease."

"Remember to take inventory in the warehouse. Is there enough ginseng? If not, go buy it quickly. Ginseng soup is indispensable for a moment."

The calm voice fell slowly, and the panicked crowd immediately seemed to have found their backbone.

"Yes."

"Yes."

"Yes!"

One answer after another, the chaos in the whole room suddenly became orderly.

The old lady watched from the side, nodded secretly, and couldn't help sighing softly: "This child, really can handle things..."

She opened her mouth and was about to say something when suddenly a burst of crying hit her eardrums——

"Woooooooo...Mother, mother, wake up!"

The old lady frowned, and before she could speak, a cold rebuke came out first: "Why are you crying? Why don't you cry? Why don't you help me in the kitchen if you have this skill!"

The crying stopped for a moment.

Zhao Chengyan raised her head, her small face was stained with tears, and the pear blossoms were covered with rain, so pitiful.

But it’s not so comfortable to say it——

"Zhao Xiwei, don't think I'll be grateful to you if you pretend to stay here! If it weren't for you, would my mother be able to do this? You are the one who caused my mother!"

Her tears rolled down like beads with a broken thread, and the extreme grief couldn't be contained.

Zhao Xiwei didn't want to irritate her with words, but he couldn't bear her crying, so he turned his head and said, "Come on, drag her down for me."

"Zhao Xiwei! This is my mother, my mother has something to do, why don't you let me guard it!" Zhao Chengyan was angry and anxious, but when the old mothers grabbed her arms, she didn't dare to struggle violently, so she had to Being pushed and shoved to go outside.

She was born with the weak appearance of a lady, so whimpering and turning her head three times, the maids and women along the road couldn't bear it, as if Zhao Xiwei had really done something wrong to her.

Her nanny saw her from afar, and rushed over to hold her hand: "Oh, what's the matter? The eldest lady is still in a coma, why don't you wait by the bedside?"

Zhao Chengyan threw herself into the nanny's arms, sobbing and saying, "I was driven out, she, she, she drove me away..."

"What? Drive you away?" The nanny raised her eyebrows when she heard that, "Who? She? Don't tell me, it's Miss Wei again! What kind of onion is she! Are you afraid of her? Ouch, my Little ancestor, you are a daughter who has not left the court, how can you ask her to compare with a concubine?"

The nanny's voice was so loud that everyone in the room could hear it through the window.

The old lady's face turned blue immediately.

Seeing this, Nanny Song and Nanny Zhou hurriedly lifted the curtain and went out.

I don't know what she was trying to persuade, but the nanny's voice really quieted down, but the muttering still lingered in her ears: "Sister Yan, don't cry, if she forces you, let her force you, wait for you Mother is recovering from her illness, so why don't she step aside?"

Zhao Xi was so annoyed that he got up abruptly, grabbed a cup, pushed open the window, and threw it outside.

I only heard "Pa-ta--", followed by a shout of "Ouch", and my mouth was covered immediately, leaving only a series of indistinct "uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu" who then disappeared completely.

"Alas!" The old lady sighed deeply, put away the prayer beads in her hand, and put her attention back on the bed.

"How is it? Can it be done?"

The people in the room fell into silence for an instant.

Xu Yunjiao's pregnancy was inherently unstable, and she didn't know what kind of poison she was suffering from. Even though Liu Jishan's medical skills were superb, she could only get a prescription like a blind man's feeling like an elephant. As for whether it will succeed, it can only be left to God's will.

"Can it be done?"

The old lady's heart sank, and she hurriedly asked again.

Several stable women bowed their heads, but no one dared to answer.

The old lady's eyes changed suddenly, and she reprimanded her voice: "Why don't you talk? Are you dumb?"

The mother-in-law had no choice but to bite the bullet and reply: "Like Da Furen, it's really... really..."

"Speak in one breath!"

The old woman gritted her teeth: "It's really more ominous than ominous!" She had made up her mind, and she simply said: "...Even if Doctor Liu's medicine is right, but the fetus is not mature enough... Please also, old madam, When it breaks, it breaks..."

The old lady grabbed the Buddhist beads in her hand: "You mean, it can't be done?"

Xu Yunjiao's condition is very bad, but if she gives up the fetus, maybe her life can be saved.But if you try your best to protect the fetus...then it is very likely that the mother and child will not be able to survive.

"That being the case..." The old lady fixed her eyes on Xu Yunjiao, sliding from her face to her abdomen little by little, looking at the high swollen belly, she couldn't help feeling a little sad: "This is a boy... I have been eating vegetarian food and praying to Buddha for so many years, looking forward to the stars and the moon, and only then to my grandson..."

She closed her eyes tightly, still struggling for the last time.

Liu Jishan stood guard in the vestibule, he could hear the hesitation in the old lady's tone, and said again: "If we can find out the poison that the lady is suffering from, maybe there is still a way to get the best of both worlds, the old lady might as well ask the prime minister..."

"That's it!"

Before she finished speaking, she was interrupted coldly by the old lady: "It's just that the fetal image is unstable, why did she have any poisoning?"

It is not difficult to find out what poison was in the poison, but it is difficult to find out who poisoned, and the most critical point is that Concubine Shu is involved.

Not to mention that Liu Jishan, an outsider, can definitely win this matter, even the wives and ladies in the family will only suffer from tears.

PS: I'm back... I've been sick on and off. I got better last month, but I caught the flu again. I haven't updated it, and I dare not explain it (I'm ashamed, I'm afraid everyone will scold me). Today I bring an update Let's take the lead, everyone scold lightly...
