Huanxi Farm: Pick up a husband for farming

Chapter 231 Inexplicably Severe Illness

Rong Shui thought a lot along the way, and suddenly remembered the conversation he had with Rong Qing, and he should give an explanation to Li Shi who was still waiting for news, so he went to find her again.

Mrs. Li was peeling garlic, and there was wax meat to be marinated during the Chinese New Year on the floor. When she saw Rong Shui approaching, she immediately washed her hands and asked, "Shui'er, what did your brother say, what is this Wang Lianzhi?" The origin? Your second brother is so kind to him."

Rong Shui looked at the bacon in a daze, and before he knew it, Mrs. Li started preparing Chinese New Year food again?Time flies……

Rong Shui listened to Li Shi's question...Could it be that in Chengniang's eyes, she thought that the second elder brother couldn't afford to offend Wang Lianzhi, so she flattered him?
So she answered her words in her mouth: "Mother, don't think about it. I used to always say that the second brother is an indifferent person, and no one can cover his heart. Now, this person appears, and the two of them are sincere. Treat each other sincerely, but I don't know what you are worried about, anyway, you don't have to worry about it so much."

Hearing what Rong Shui said, Mrs. Li didn't worry about it anymore. She is not a character who will always dig into the horns of the dead. Since her daughter also persuaded her, maybe she was thinking too much.

After a day or two of such peaceful life, Rong Shui had already told Junli not to investigate Wang Lianzhi's life anymore.

It was not easy for the Rong family to have a real reunion, and the whole family let go of some previous prejudices or small conflicts and awkwardness.

Although Rong Qing would still bring Wang Lianzhi by his side on any occasion, fortunately, he restrained his intimate and abnormal behavior, and his parents felt sorry for him before he lived at home, so they said that he was going to the academy, and he did not miss his studies at all. It made the two elders very sad, but they prepared a lot of things while packing.

Rong Xiaomei has been depressed repeatedly for so many days, and she finally found a little smile. As a young girl, she used to like to have fun at her parents' knees. The two elder brothers acted like a baby in front of her. Now they are back to normal, which also made the elders feel relieved.

Rong Wan, who had been frowning all this time, seemed to be looking forward to some good news, and she returned to her usual carefree and cheerful personality.

The development of Rong Ming and Clinique doesn't need to worry about the family members of Rong's family anymore. The two of them are like honey. They were often away from home some time ago. With the nourishment of love, they are always at home.

Everything in the family seems to be thriving... The industry is also steady and strong, Rong Shui thought that he would be busy for a while, so he took advantage of the second brother's stay at home for a little bit of laziness.

On this day, some unexpected news came out. Mrs. Li and the neighbor next door came back from shopping together, and in front of Rong Shui, who just got up, talked about the gossip in the city that he heard early in the morning.

It's all about "the cock of Mrs. Li's family is missing, I suspect the old man next door." or "The son of which family is 25 and hasn't married a wife yet."... and so on.

That's right, Li Shi also likes to hear some gossip about her neighbors, just like the majority of women, but she is wise enough to listen and not talk about it. When she hears some interesting news or trivial things outside, she always likes to find her children when she returns home. They said a few words, and of course they did not express their own opinions, but simply sighed a few words.

It's rare that Mrs. Li also has such a down-to-earth hobby, Rong Shui naturally takes on the big task of listening every day.

The news that Mrs. Li said today is not so meaningless.

"Now it's spread in the city, saying that the county magistrate's wife is seriously ill, he must have killed his wife, and it's not been a year since he took office in Jiangcheng, and the few things he didn't do seriously, but his wife was killed by him first It’s too late, everyone is talking about whether his horoscope just doesn’t fit with ours in Jiangcheng!”

After finishing speaking, looking at the stunned Rong Shui, he suddenly thought of something, and hurriedly said: "Shui'er! Didn't I remember that you were very close to Huangda County Magistrate a while ago? Why didn't you know that Mrs. Liu was sick?"

Rong Shui asked: "Is the county magistrate mentioned by mother Huang Zhi? It is Liu who said his wife is seriously ill?"

Mrs. Li nodded, and said: "Yes, otherwise, which county magistrate does Jiangcheng have? It is said that the magistrate Huang only married one person, so it must be Mrs. Liu?! Shui'er... are you okay? This Mrs. Liu and County Magistrate Huang seem to have some friendship with you, do you want to visit?"

Only then did Rong Shui come back to his senses, nodded hastily, and replied Li Shi: "Mom! Of course I'm going to visit, and I'm going now... I'm really confused. I should have gone to see Mrs. Huang first when I came back this time, but now I only remembered it after you reminded me! I really... hey... don't talk about it, mother, I'm leaving now."

Why is Liu's illness still not improving after this farewell for more than a few months, and even now... there is news that he is seriously ill, I hope I don't go too late.

After Rong Shui finished speaking, she got up, Mrs. Li is a careful person, as soon as she heard that Rong Shui was going to visit a doctor, she immediately went to the house to prepare some expensive tonic gifts and handed them to her.

He warned: "Since it's a visit, don't go empty-handed! Gifts are not expensive, but you have to have some kindness, and you have some friendship with the county magistrate and his wife, so you should go and visit. You are always smooth and don't need anyone I came to teach you, just to comfort and let the sick people relax."

Rongshui held the gift forced by Li Shi in his hand, and was moved by Li Shi's thoughtfulness and meticulousness. His mother always thought of it so appropriately when she was anxious.

She didn't say much, she just nodded to remember her mother's words, and she didn't want to delay any more, so she turned to leave.

When he was about to leave the gate, Junli was waiting in his carriage again.

Looking at her somewhat surprised expression, he said, "What are you waiting for, little girl? The county government's mansion is still some distance away, and it's much faster to drive in a carriage. Aren't you in a hurry? Haven't come yet?"

Rong Shui just delayed for a while, and got into the small carriage without saying a word.

Waiting to sit on it, looking at the crowds passing by outside the car window... said for a long time: "Junli... you are so... don't you know it already?"

As he looked at him full of doubts, Jun Li didn't let his thoughts run wild, and said directly: "I only found out in the past few days, when you were busy managing the fried chicken shop and your second brother, I went to Hu Changzhai gave Er Qiangzi a few tricks, and heard a few folk rumors after returning to the city, but the people always like to make up stories and exaggerate words, Rong Shui don't need to worry too much, how is Liu's illness? How could the government spread it to the outside world? If you don’t see it with your own eyes, you won’t know for sure.”

Rongshui was a little liberated from Yingcai's self-blaming and flustered mood. Junli has such a magical effect. As long as she is by her side, even if she doesn't say anything, she feels that she has something to say, not to mention his gentle comfort to her.

So he stopped talking, Jun Li was right, all rumors cannot be fully believed, Mrs. Liu... such a kind and gentle woman... how could she die soon?

After a while the carriage stopped at the county government's mansion, Rong Shui and Jun Li got out of the car and handed out the name card, then a servant went in to spread the word, and after a while the housekeeper came out to invite someone.

As soon as Rong Shui Junli stepped into the mansion, Huang Zhi had already gone out to meet the guests. Seeing Rong Shui, he said, "It's a good thing you're here, girl Rong, otherwise I'm afraid I'm going to your Rong's house Please."

Rong Shui looked at Huang Zhi, and saw that in just two or three months, his face seemed to be much haggard, he was not as energetic as before when he took office, and his complexion was not as good as before... It seems that he also knows that Mrs. Liu is sick, two People love and respect each other so much, I'm afraid it will be difficult for him to live.

Rong Shui brushed his body slightly, invited Ann, and said apologetically: "Lord Huang is surprised, Rong Shui went out of the city some time ago, and after returning, he was busy taking care of the things in the shop, and wanted to I wondered when I should come to visit you, but I heard some bad rumors about Madam among the people in the city, and I was surprised that it was not good, so I hurried over to disturb you."

When Rong Shui mentioned that there were bad rumors in the city, Huang Zhi was very angry, but he was not at Rong Shui, but complained and said: "Hey!... these meddling troublemakers! It's spreading rumors, if my wife is fine and they curse her like this, I will arrest a few to make an example to others!"

Rong Shui persuaded: "Your Excellency, don't be too angry. Rong Shui knows that you and Madam have a deep relationship, so naturally he can't see people spreading rumors like this. Madam is a kind person, and auspicious people have their own appearances, so they won't be afraid of these things."

With such persuasion, Rong Shui actually knew why Huang Zhi was so angry in his heart.

Perhaps he was angry not only because of cursing Liu's remarks, but more importantly, since he joined the job less than a year ago, his political achievements have been mediocre, except for the steady growth of the economy itself.

A few months ago, the bandits were suppressed with great difficulty, but Rongshui overturned all the crimes of bandits, and even won the support and applause of the people. Undoubtedly, this time-consuming banditry campaign was not only meaningless, but also established some people's respect for the bandits. His scolding.

Since ancient times, what the common people can remember is nothing more than a series of officials who are honest and upright in their duties, and eliminate harm for the people.

What about the imperial court?Only officials who are flattering, backed, and have made great achievements can win promotion.

However, Huang Zhi didn't have much to do with these things.

How can Huang Zhi not know these reasons, now he is not loved by the people, and he is not welcomed by the court. Of course, all this is also a gift of defeat.

But helplessly, he had already promised Liu that he would not pursue the past. Except for occasionally holding grudges, he still didn't want to hold grudges most of the time.

Rong Shui asked: "Before winter, when Rong Shui came to visit his wife, he clearly felt that there were signs of improvement, why...the recovery has not been seen for a long time?"

While leading the way, Huang Zhi took the two of them to see Mrs. Liu, and at the same time answered Rong Shui's question, saying: "Heal? Is there any possibility of recovery... Doctor Le never said such a thing in front of me, just I told Haosheng to recuperate with evasive words, and then I knew that the root cause of my wife's illness could not be cured."

It turned out to be such a thing...Rong Shui was a little agitated...Liu's illness, even Doctor Le didn't dare to guarantee it...

Huang Zhi said again: "But don't take the outside world's words as truth, where is my wife going to that level?"

After saying that Liu's room was close in front of him, Huang Zhi knocked on the door, and Liu's servant girl came to open it.
