Chapter 582 Accident
Chapter 582 Accident
After thinking about it for a long time, I didn’t sleep well all night.
The next morning, Lu caught up with Fan Jin who was about to go to the government office.
"Jin'er, let me bring you lunch today, shall I?"
Fan Jin was puzzled. "Mom, the weather is so cold. Our house is not close to the Hanlin Academy. Just let Bafang send you there. You just stay at home. Don't get cold."
Mrs. Lu smiled and said, "I can ride in a carriage and won't get cold. I've been in the capital for so long and haven't seen what the Hanlin Academy is like yet. Please let me take you there once."
"Mother, even if you come, you can't enter the Hanlin Academy."
"It's okay. I'll just look at the gate outside. I can talk to your aunt and the others about it when I go back in the future!"
"Well, mother, please be careful on your way, wear more clothes, and remember to bring a hand warmer to warm your hands."
"Mother knows!"
Watching her son leave, Mrs. Lu secretly decided in her heart that she would take Jin'er to see the doctor secretly at noon under the pretext of delivering lunch!
If it's really Jin'er who's in trouble...treat him as soon as possible if you can.
If it can't be cured...
Mrs. Lu's eyes suddenly turned red. What should she do if it can't be cured?
She couldn't figure it out either!
I don’t know what would happen if Shi Liu knew about this, or if my in-laws knew about this!
Shi Liu is so young and so good. If her in-laws want Shi Liu and Jin Er to divorce...
She really couldn't bear to part with such a good daughter-in-law like Shi Liu!
Mrs. Lu couldn't help it, so she went back to the room, hugged her husband's tablet and started blabbering, asking her husband to bless Jin'er to be in good health.
When the time came, Mrs. Lu took Mrs. Zhu, picked up the food box and went out.
Seeing that Mrs. Lu was going to personally deliver food to Fan Jin today, Shi Liu was confused but did not think much about it. She just thought that she, as the 'nominal wife', had never delivered food to Fan Jin. Wasn't this a bit unreasonable?
But even if she went to deliver it, it didn't seem to work -
She thought about asking the kitchen to prepare a few dishes tomorrow, and then having Zuo Cheng bring them over. This would then be considered a gift from her, right?
It was still early for dinner, and Shi Liu wanted to wait for Mrs. Lu to come back before eating, so he took the account book to look at it.
Don't underestimate this two-story courtyard. There are quite a few people coming and going now. There are three coachmen responsible for going out, and there are several horse-drawn carriages. If they have to be prepared to go out separately, they can't be without a car.
She wasn't short of money anyway, but with so many people around, the monthly expenses were not small.
Not to mention the silver rewards during the New Year holidays.
In addition, she felt that this house, which didn't seem to be small, was still a little small. After all, there were so many people in her dowry, and they all lived in a crowded place.
Not only is it difficult to find a bigger house, but it is also not easy to move around. So Shi Liu asked housekeeper Hu to ask around to see if the neighbors on both sides are interested in selling their houses. If so, they can buy them and open a door in the middle wall. That would make the house very spacious, and they could even build a bigger garden!
The place where this person lives is not pleasant at all if there is no scenery.
While she was looking at the account book, Sui Lu came in and reported that Butler Hu wanted to see her.
"But is there any progress on the matter of the house next door? Let him in." Shi Liu put the account book aside for the time being and waited for Butler Hu to come in and talk.
Soon, Butler Hu came into the house, greeted Shi Liu first, and then reported: "Madam, you asked me to inquire, and it was a coincidence that the owner of the house on our left is interested in selling the house and moving somewhere else. I have contacted him, but the master said he wanted to talk to you in person."
Want to talk to her?
This is a master. If he wants to discuss selling the house, shouldn't he talk to the master? Why would he want to discuss it with her, his wife?
"Did you hear correctly? Did the other party say he wanted to talk to me, or to the person in charge of our family?"
Butler Hu was also a little puzzled. "The master said in person that he wanted to have a face-to-face meeting with you, Madam."
Shi Liu was puzzled, but thinking that she could expand the building by buying the house next door, she really had to go and negotiate.
But just in case, Shi Liu directly brought Fu Dong and Nanny Gong, as well as Ke Hu and Zuo Cheng.
Walking all the way to the next door and passing the screen wall, Shi Liu liked the layout and scenery at first sight. This house actually looked more spacious than theirs. They both had the same two entrances, but there were some differences.
The landscape under the wall connecting the two houses is also very good, with a small bridge and flowing water, plum trees planted, and a large pavilion. If it can be connected through, it will definitely become a large garden.
The more Shi Liu looked at it, the more she liked it. She was also thinking about how she would negotiate the sale of the house to the owner when she met him later.
The housekeeper led them into the grand hall. When they entered, they saw no one. The housekeeper just asked them to wait and said that his master would be here soon.
Shi Liu sat at the lower seat and waited quietly. Fu Dong and Matron Gong stood quietly behind her, while Ke Hu and Zuo Cheng stood at the door waiting.
After sitting for a while, no maid came to serve tea. Matron Gong frowned. What was the etiquette for this family to entertain guests?
After waiting for a while, Shi Liu also frowned slightly, wondering what the other party meant by this? Was he deliberately leaving her alone?
At this moment, the butler came out slowly from the hall pushing a wheelchair.
The person in the wheelchair was dressed in black with a hood, his entire head was covered tightly, and his face was lowered, making it impossible to see his appearance clearly.
Shi Liu wondered why this person was so strange.
He stood up politely and bowed slightly, "I heard that this gentleman is interested in selling this house and wants to talk to me, so I came here. I wonder what price you would offer for this house, sir?"
The man slowly raised his head, revealing a bloodless face. Not only was his face bloodless, it was even pale blue, which made Shi Liu subconsciously think of a zombie, which was extremely appropriate.
The most important thing, what made Shi Liu's pupils shrink, was that she was too familiar with this face!
"You're not dead?"
"I haven't even had a meal with you yet, how can I die?" The man smiled, revealing a mouthful of blue and white teeth.
Ke Hu and Zuo Cheng, who were at the door, had already rushed in with their swords unsheathed. They stood in front of Shi Liu and looked at the person in the wheelchair vigilantly.
Shi Liu looked at the other person deeply, waved her hand, and signaled the two to leave first. Then she slowly sat back and met the other person's gaze, "So, on my wedding day, you were the one who sent me a 'gift', right?"
"Is Miss Li satisfied with the gift?"
The person in the wheelchair was none other than Li Yan, who was supposed to die in Cangzhou!
Last year, when Shi Liu heard the news of his death, she had doubted how this man could die so suddenly. It was hard to believe that he was really dead. However, the body was transported back to the capital and crushed to ashes. Before that, someone from the Wang family had personally identified the body and confirmed that it was indeed Li Yan's.
In this case, even though Shi Liu had doubts, he couldn't help but believe it. After all, death would be better.
On her last wedding day, someone sent her a dead chicken. At that time, she began to suspect whether Li Yan was really not dead. However, after asking Wan Cheng to secretly investigate for several months, he did not find anything suspicious. She wondered if she was too frightened.
How can a dead person still be alive?
But now it has been proved that her feeling was correct. She just couldn't believe that Li Yan would die so hastily. He started an uprising in Cangzhou, was beaten back all the way, and his 100,000-strong army was defeated. All in such a short period of time, it was too unreasonable.
I didn't expect that this guy really faked his death. What a coincidence, the house next door is his.
Who would have thought that the dead person was still alive and in the capital.
"Doctor Wang is so surprising." She laughed.

Li Yan also laughed, "I think Miss Li is not surprised at all that I am not dead."
Shi Liu pursed her lips. "Since Doctor Wang is not dead, how could he bear to watch Princess Zhao Zhao become a nun? I heard that the baby girl born by Princess Zhao Zhao was adopted by a farmer in the suburbs of Beijing. Doctor Wang was unwilling to go and check his own bloodline?"
Li Yan glanced at Shi Liu, his eyes showing an indiscernible emotion, and suddenly he just smiled and said, "I have been thinking about having a meal with Miss Li for a long time, so why not wait for a better day? I have also asked someone to prepare lunch carefully today, so Miss Li can stay and eat with me."
As he spoke, he raised his hand, and the housekeeper clapped his hands from outside. Then maids came in one after another with trays and placed dishes on the dining table in the side hall.
This scene seems like a carefully prepared lunch.
Shi Liu tightened her grip around the hand warmer. How could she know that the owner of the house next door was Li Yan? Although she had taken precautions and brought Zuo Cheng and Ke Hu with her, how many people were there on the other side? Could Ke Hu and Zuo Cheng defeat them?
She wasn't entirely sure.
Moreover, she thought she was really discussing the sale of the house with some master, so in order to prevent any bad gossip from spreading, she also brought along Madam Dou and Fu Dong. None of them knew martial arts, so if a real fight broke out, they would all have weaknesses.
She didn't dare to gamble.
Thinking of this, Shi Liu relaxed a little and smiled, "Doctor Wang sincerely invites me, so I will respectfully obey your command."
He immediately stood up and followed Li Yan to the side hall. At the same time, he took the opportunity to give Zuo Cheng and Ke Hu a look, telling them to act accordingly.
----
Fan Jin strode out of the Hanlin Academy, walked towards his own carriage, lifted the curtain and climbed in, "Mother, you really brought me food in person, are you cold? Why didn't you bring an extra hand warmer?"
"It's not cold, not cold. Eat your meal quickly." Mrs. Lu urged.
"Has mother eaten yet?"
"I'll go back and eat later, you eat quickly first."
Seeing that Lu was urging him, Fan Jin was also puzzled. "You go back first. I will bring the lunch box back when I get off work in the evening." There is no such thing as eating quickly. If you don't chew slowly, it will be difficult to digest and bad for your stomach.
"I'm not in a hurry to go back. You should eat quickly and then come with me to Baohetang. When I first came here, I had already got an appointment for you with Doctor Qin at Baohetang. I specially bothered him to wait a little longer!"
"Go to Baohetang?" Fan Jin was surprised and immediately asked worriedly, "Mom, are you feeling unwell? How can we get an appointment with Doctor Qin? Doctor Qin is good at treating infertility, and the whole capital knows this. You should go see Doctor Zhou."
Fan Jin was no longer in a hurry to eat, "I'll take you to see Doctor Zhou first."
"I'm not sick, I just picked a number for you!" said Mrs. Lu.
"Give it to me?" Fan Jin was stunned, but then he reacted and said calmly, "Why did my mother ask me to see a doctor for infertility? How long have I been married to Shi Liu? We are not in a hurry to have a child!"
Mrs. Lu gave him a cryptic look, "Really? You're not in a hurry to have a child, not you. What. No?"
Fan Jin:! Who can’t do it? Who can’t do it? He can do it very well!
"I'm really not in a hurry to have a child. Shi Liu just turned seventeen, she's still young! I asked the doctor, and he said it's best for women to wait until they are twenty to have children. This is better for both adults and children!" He lied without changing his expression.
"Really?" Mrs. Lu didn't quite believe it. Is age important for having a child?
She was in good health, but because Jin'er's father was not in good health, she could not get pregnant after marriage. When she gave birth to Jin'er, she was already 20 years old. But Jin'er was still weak and sickly when he was born.
But seeing that Jin'er said it seriously, Lu couldn't help but believe it.
"Really? It's not you who can't do it?"
"That's true! We don't plan to have children for the time being!" Fan Jin kept silent about the question of whether he could do it or not. He thought that if after one, two, or three years, he still couldn't impress Shi Liu, then she would definitely use his inability as an excuse. So he couldn't say anything so early.
Seeing that it was not her son's fault, Mrs. Lu heaved a sigh of relief and stopped urging her son to see a doctor. "It's not entirely true that women can have children after the age of 20. Look at Shi Liu's eldest and second sisters-in-law who had children at the age of 18 or 19. How smart, cute and healthy are all these children.
"Shi Liu is only seventeen, she is a little small. Okay, I won't rush you. Just nourish Shi Liu and wait until next year, okay? I am looking forward to having a baby at home, so you can't let me wait too long!"
"I know, I know." Fan Jin responded casually, but he was also confused in his heart. Although he and Shi Liu lived under the same roof every day and got along very well, he was not sure whether he had impressed Shi Liu. He had to work hard slowly and could not be too hasty.
If he pushed too hard and it backfired, and the friendly relationship they had now was ruined, he would be so angry that he would die.
Therefore, he didn't want to break the current situation easily.
