First Wife of Zhu Family

Chapter 239
Mrs. Du had just come out of the inner room when she met Song Zixun walking in hastily, and they looked at each other in a daze.

Song Zixun hurriedly bowed his body and saluted, "I have seen my mother-in-law."

Madam Du wiped her tears with a handkerchief, and forced a smile, "Young master is back?"

"Yes." Seeing Mrs. Du's expression, Song Zixun became even more anxious, and hurriedly said, "My lord, but Rong Zhi—"

Mrs. Du cast a sad look behind her, and said in a hoarse voice, "Ah Zhi didn't sleep all night, and she finally fell asleep after taking the medicine...Young master, please don't go in."

..................................................................

... "I didn't know Ah Zhi was so ill. If I had known in the morning, I wouldn't have said anything..." Thinking of her daughter's sad and hopeless look, Madam Du's voice choked, "Just now I saw her sitting on the ground blankly, talking It said 'we don't want her anymore', you don't know what's in my heart..." Mrs. Du couldn't help crying, "It's like being cut with a knife."

Song Zixun was silent, and said in a low voice, "It's my fault, if it was—"

Mrs. Du waved her hand wearily, "Now is not the time to pursue these things...Even I didn't expect that this miscarriage would hit Ah Zhi so hard..." She sighed faintly and asked, "The imperial doctor can say How can this disease be cured?"

Song Zixun pursed his lips, and said in a low voice after a long while, "The imperial doctor has no effective solution. He only said to rest in peace, and when she let go of her knots and walked out of the past... she will recover."

Mrs. Du nodded slightly, thought for a while and said, "I mentioned to you earlier that when Ah Zhi's health improves, I will take her to live with Guan'er's house for a few days... I saw her in such a state today, if I continue to stay In the mansion, I'm afraid it will be inconvenient for her to recuperate from her illness. When I go back to discuss with your father-in-law, I will send someone to pick up their mother-in-law to go back some day—"

"No!" Before Madam Du could finish her sentence, Song Zixun subconsciously said her refusal.

Seeing a trace of displeasure flashing in Mrs. Du's eyes, Song Zixun hurriedly calmed down, and said seriously, "Didn't my mother-in-law just say that there are many rumors about Rong Zhi outside now? If she is on the cusp of this crisis, she will take Guan'er back... ...In the eyes of someone with a heart, wouldn't the rumors of our husband and wife's estrangement become more and more confirmed?" Seeing Mrs. Du's expression of hesitation, Song Zixun gritted his teeth and continued, "Let's not hide it from my mother-in-law. Aunt Fang came to visit Rong Zhi, and expressed to my mother that she was willing to send Biao girl into the house to be with Rong Zhi, the elders already had some concerns..."

"Your aunt?" Mrs. Du was startled, and then exclaimed in disbelief, "Your aunt really said that?!" Although Qinghe had heard a few words before, she hadn't had time to ask carefully, who She thought that her sister-in-law was so shameless!

"It's absolutely true." Song Zixun's eyes flashed coldly, "My aunt not only mentioned it in front of my mother, but even talked to Rong Zhi, and she never said a word." Looking back now, he hated Madam Fang's snobbishness even more. Bao Liang, "If it weren't for this, Rong Zhi wouldn't have suddenly fallen ill on the night of her visit..."

Madam Du's eyes were flushed with anger, and she gritted her teeth, "What's wrong with her, how did she do it?! She is Ah Zhi's real aunt! Ah Zhi is so ill, she is... so shameless! Extremely hateful!" Thinking Mrs. Du has been gentle and gentle all her life, and she has never said a word of cruelty to anyone. Now she is so angry that she has reached the limit.

"Mother-in-law, calm down." Song Zixun hurriedly comforted, "Although Aunt Fang asked my mother to speak for her, my son-in-law has already sternly refused, and my son-in-law has also told my grandmother in private that there will be no concubine for a few years. Intend……"

Mrs. Du's complexion was pale, and her tone of voice when speaking to him was rare, "It's hard for my uncle to think so much about Ah Zhi..."

Song Zixun saw that the time was ripe, so he made it difficult, "It's just that my grandmother agreed to postpone the matter of taking a concubine, but if Rong Zhi leaves at this time, my son-in-law is afraid that my grandmother will be an old man..."

Mrs. Du also fell silent when she heard the words.

In all fairness, she also understood Mrs. Song's mood.After the daughter had dystocia, she aborted another child. It is still unknown whether she will be able to give birth in the future or not.Looking at Song Zixun now, the old lady is still willing to give her daughter this respect, but once she leaves... Song Zixun must have someone to serve him, right? !

When Mrs. Du was hesitating, she heard Song Zixun say sincerely, "I know that because of Rong Zhi's miscarriage, my father-in-law and mother-in-law are quite dissatisfied with me... I also blame myself very much. But the bell still needs to be tied Man, since Rong Zhi's heart disease was caused by me, it is my duty to take care of her." He said, standing up and bowing deeply to Mrs. Du, "I beg your mother-in-law...let Rong Zhi stay!"

Mrs. Du couldn't do it.

When I was about to agree to him, I couldn't help but think of the scene where Du Rongzhi sat in a pile of shredded papers in a daze just now, muttering "Mother doesn't want me anymore...", I feel that my heart hurts when I think about it now It's going to be broken; but if she doesn't agree - she has to consider the rumors in the market and Mrs. Song's attitude.After all, she is a married daughter, even if she can protect Du Rongzhi for a while, but in the final analysis... the Duke's Mansion is her destination for the rest of her life.

Madam Du pondered for a long time, and finally sighed faintly, "In that case, then I will take her home later."

Song Zixun's expression relaxed, and before he could speak, Madam Du frowned and said, "It's just that Ah Zhi's disease is really horrifying to me. Although the imperial physicians my uncle found are all excellent, you can't just listen to what the family says. It's time to search more..." She pursed her lips and thought, her eyes suddenly lit up, "That's right, why didn't I think of that!"

Song Zixun didn't know why, "My lord mother..."

Mrs. Du said happily, "I'm afraid you don't know... Your aunt's cousin Cheng He is very skilled in medicine! A while ago, the mother of your father-in-law's colleague suffered from a strange disease, and she couldn't do anything even after calling a few doctors. Your cousin was cured!"

Thinking of Xue Chenghe's youthful face... Song Zixun echoed, "If my cousin can cure Rong Zhi's illness, it would be great." But he had doubts about Xue Chenghe's medical skills in his heart.

Mrs. Du nodded, and after a second thought, if Xue Chenghe were to come here like this, it would be impossible for him to enter the inner house as a foreigner, but if he was a doctor... I'm afraid some people would have to ask the bottom line and make trouble.Mrs. Du thought for a while, and said, "In just a few days, your aunt and I will go to Huishan Temple to offer incense, and Chenghe will also escort us up the mountain... Then let Ah Zhi go with us, what do you think?"

"Okay." Song Zixun said happily, "That day my son-in-law personally escorted Rong Zhi there."
