Chapter 284 Moon Leak
Xiaoyue also felt helpless when talking about this matter. "It was the Madam who wrote several letters in a row, saying that the matter of the baby in my belly was urgent, and Wancheng was the front line of the war, which was too dangerous. And my family in Shu County had already prepared a midwife and an experienced old woman to take care of me.

The general felt that Wancheng did not have as many confidants and families as Shu County to take care of me, and the old man also said that my wife was seriously ill and there was no one to take care of the family... so he let me come back."

However, she didn't expect that Gu Lingchen and the Gu family, in order to ensure that the power of housekeeper would not fall into someone else's hands, would actually allow Gu Lingyun to temporarily enter the house as a concubine, which caught Qiao Rong off guard.

"Since entering the mansion is so passive, why didn't you send someone to inform me?" He didn't even mention such a big thing as not being able to enter the ancestral hall.

Xiaoyue lowered her head, feeling very sorry for her wife, "I have advised her, but she said that if you knew, you would definitely speak up for her.

But now, although you seem to be doing well on the surface, you also have many difficulties that you cannot tell others. So many eyes are staring at you from inside and outside. She really doesn't want you to be embarrassed between the relationship between husband and wife and master and servant. "

"Fool!" Qiao Wei couldn't help but curse in a low voice, but his tone was full of heartache. "I was cautious and patient in the Sun family. Who knows if it wasn't to protect her and keep her safe in the Zhou family? If I can't protect my family, what's the point of enjoying the protection of the Sun family alone?"

Qiao Wei was angry, but he still had to make arrangements. Doctor Zhang happened to come in with a recipe for medicinal food and gave it to Xiaoyue. "My pregnancy is not bad. You can use medicinal food to replenish your energy. Get more sun and take a walk."

Qiao Wei asked quietly, "What is Mrs. Gu's illness?"

"It's menstrual leakage." Doctor Zhang's tone was somewhat regretful.

But Qiao Wei didn't know what this menstrual leakage was. "Is it a serious disease?"

"Mrs. Gu must have had a miscarriage and didn't take good care of herself. Now she can't stop having bleeding from her body. Every day she has bleeding like her period. If this continues for a long time, she will suffer from qi and blood deficiency and die of bleeding." Qiao Wei recalled that when she approached Mrs. Gu's main room, she smelled a strong scent of mugwort. Although she didn't know much about Chinese medicine, she knew that mugwort could warm the meridians and stop bleeding.

However, Qiao Wei still couldn't help but raise his own doubts, "But when I went in to see Madam Gu just now, I saw that her face was rosy and she even spoke with full energy." Even when she was a hermaphrodite, she looked so full of fighting spirit and enthusiasm, and she didn't look like the person who would suffer from menstrual leakage and blood deficiency as described by Doctor Zhang.

"Mrs. Gu must have used strong medicine to stop the bleeding, but these strong medicines only treat the symptoms and not the root cause. Although they can be effective for a while, they will damage the body's foundation over time. As you can see, Mrs. Gu's energetic appearance is just a superficial appearance. Judging from her pulse, she has already been fundamentally injured and no medicine can help."

Doctor Zhang's tone was full of regret. She was a compassionate doctor and always had a bit of sympathy for her patients, but life and death in this world were not determined by humans.

"Even Doctor Zhang, you can't do anything?" Qiao Wei confirmed again and again, "Maybe there is some prescription that can save her life?"

Doctor Zhang shook his head, but he didn't dare to say it too absolutely. "Maybe, but I am really powerless. The prescription I can give is at most to delay the treatment for a few days." Qiao Wei asked someone to take Doctor Zhang to the side room to rest for a while. Xiaoyue asked nervously, "Are you going to give the prescription to Madam?"

Although Xiaoyue had no intention of harming anyone, when she thought of the injustice her own wife had suffered, she was somewhat reluctant to give it even though the prescription could only reduce Madam Gu's pain a little and allow her to live a few more days.

"Since I brought a doctor with me, how can I not prescribe medicine?" Qiao Wei found the angry Xiaoyue very cute. "Don't worry, this prescription is a good thing that can bring the dead back to life. Your wife won't use it. Keep your mouth shut when you leave this place. If someone asks you about Madam Gu's pulse, you just say you don't know and say that Doctor Zhang didn't tell you. It's the medical rules, so you didn't ask."

Xiaoyue didn't understand why, and Qiao Wei didn't explain much, "The person who wants your wife to get into trouble the most is Mrs. Gu, not your wife. Stay away from Mrs. Gu!"

Qiao Wei stood up and went back to Old Madam Xun to pick up Sun Deng. Before leaving, he did not forget to give another reminder, "Tell everyone in the room to be more restrained, especially when meeting Mrs. Gu and Madam, no matter what they say or do, they must not show any dissatisfaction. Everything should be done to take care of the baby in my belly."

Xiaoyue said that she had made a note of it, "Don't worry, my dear."

As soon as Qiao Wei walked out of Qiao Rong's room, he saw a maid hurriedly pulling Doctor Zhang out, "Doctor, be kind, come with me!"

But as soon as the two of them walked out, they bumped into Qiao Wei head-on. The maid was so scared that she let go of Doctor Zhang's wrist and knelt on the ground with a plop, "Mrs. Qiao..."

Qiao Wei calmly asked someone to help him up, "What's going on? It's not the New Year, why are you giving such a big gift? I just heard something, but which young lady in the mansion is sick?"

"Yes... yes, it's me... Fangxin, who lives in the same room with me... is sick. That's why I'm a little worried." The maid immediately continued with the conversation. Although her words were a little nervous, they were still fluent.

Qiao Wei was not moved by her words. He explained softly while gently holding Doctor Zhang behind him. "Although Doctor Zhang is also a doctor, she was invited by me after all. She is an outsider. She is willing to come out of retirement to treat your wife and Mrs. Qiao, which has given me great face. Doctor Zhang is not the doctor of your mansion. If the maid in the mansion is sick, she should ask the mistress and let the doctor in the mansion to diagnose her pulse. This is in accordance with the rules, don't you think?"

The maid immediately lowered her head and apologized, "It's all my fault. It's really my heart's illness... It's a little hard to talk about, so I can't ask the doctor in the mansion to check it out. I thought Doctor Zhang was a master doctor, so I offended him. Please forgive me, Madam."

"It's nothing on my part, but if others saw you doing this, they would surely spread rumors that you were unkind to your wife. If a maid falls ill, can you ask for permission from your mistress and let her die without saving her?"

"Madam, you need to rest. How dare I bother you with such a trivial matter?"

"If you don't have a wife, don't you still have your wife?" Qiao Wei looked at the clever maid with a half-smile. "Why? I heard that your wife often distributed porridge to the county before she got married. Could it be that you are unwilling to ask a doctor to take a look at your maids?"
