Reborn Concubine's Wife

Chapter 4 Yang Zhi
What happened to the girl today?The closer she got to Zheng Wan's courtyard, the more uneasy she felt.Subconsciously touched the silver bracelet on the left wrist, she didn't bring the girl today, the Fifth Aunt and the others would be dissatisfied and scold her, right?

When they got to the door, the maid in Wuguzi's courtyard said loudly, "Yang Zhi is here? Hey, why don't you see your girl?"

Yang Zhi stepped on his own girl to climb up in front of the fifth aunt and the others, and gained a lot of benefits.These servants all saw it, they looked down on Yang Zhi, and at the same time felt that the girl she was serving was too useless, so they also looked down on Zheng Ruo.

Yang Zhi sneered twice, and said: "Hehe, the girl fell ill after falling into the water, and she has to get up now." She also spoke a little loudly, wanting Zheng Wan and Zheng Ru inside to hear.

Sure enough, Zheng Wan rushed out, pointed at her nose, and said: "Your girl is sick? What did you say just now? You said your girl is fine, and you will definitely bring her here. Why did you go back for a while? Is your girl sick? Could it be that you lied about one of my bracelets?"

Zheng Wan is different from Zheng Ruo who has a good temper. She is domineering and will beat people with a whip when she is very angry. Zheng Ruo has suffered a lot.Yang Zhi naturally knew her temper, stepped back slightly, and said with a smile: "Don't dare to hide it from my fifth aunt, my girl is really sick. Just now, the servant didn't look carefully." As he spoke, he twirled the bracelet for a while , Some reluctantly took it off, and offered it with respectful hands.

Zheng Wan knocked down the bracelet in her hand with a "snap", and said angrily, "Who wants something contaminated by a dog? Go and call your girl, otherwise," she began to take off the whip hanging on the wall, "I'll beat you to death."

As soon as Zheng Wan's words fell, Yang Zhi's legs softened, and he knelt on the ground, kowtowing his head frequently, "Fifth Aunt, please forgive me, my girl, she is really sick."

"Hmph! I told you to lie!" Zheng Wan simply ignored her words, raised the whip, and slammed it down on Yang Zhi's back.

Yang Zhi was whipped solidly, and the pain on his back was like being burned, burning hot.Her eyes immediately filled with tears, and she almost fainted from the pain.However, she didn't dare to move her body, she knelt on the ground, her upper body was almost prostrate on the ground.

"Fifth Auntie, Fifth Auntie. My girl...my girl...she is really sick." Yang Zhi gritted his teeth and said that Zheng Wan's whip was on Zheng Ruo, if she hadn't pretended to be sick and refused Come here, how can I suffer this pain?

Zheng Ru said: "Sister, this servant is still saying the same thing after being whipped by you. In my opinion, Ah Ruoxu is really sick. Why don't we go and see her."

"Look at her?" Zheng Wan said disdainfully, "We are the first daughters of the first branch. To see her a second branch daughter, is she worthy?"

"Sister, have you forgotten, who rescued her from the lake today?" Zheng Wan thought of that banished fairy, for a lowly concubine like Zheng Ruo, who actually went into the water to save her without regard for her grace.Thinking of it made her teeth itch with hatred.She was also in the lake at that time, and she was the closest to him, so why did he save her but not himself?
"Sister, even if it's for Jiulang, we should go and see it. Otherwise, if this matter gets to Jiulang's ears, I'm afraid it will make him unhappy."

What Zheng Ru said is right, Jiulang saved her, if he forgets about it, if he asks a few words, Zheng Ruo will be taken seriously immediately, and he wants her to come to see her because she is sick When the news gets out, some people will say that she is unreasonable, "Sister, have you forgotten Father's order?"

Zheng Wan smiled and said, "Yes. How could I have forgotten Father's order?" Even if Jiu Lang saved her, so what?Wouldn't it be the same as being sent to the City Guard's Mansion by Dad?
"Let's go, Aru, let's go see Ruoniang." Zheng Wan's mood suddenly brightened, and she walked out holding Zheng Ru's arm.

Yang Zhi, who was kneeling on the ground, saw the two of them go to see Zheng Ruo, with a sinister smile on the corner of his mouth.Girl, I took a whip from Wu Guzi, wait a minute, how many whips will you give her?
She stood up and put the whip that Zheng Wan threw on the ground into her bosom. Because she moved too fast, the whip wound on her back was involved, and she grinned in pain.After a while, seeing that the two of them were going far away, she endured the pain and trotted to follow.

"Ah Ruo, Ah Ruo!" Zheng Wan shouted as soon as she arrived at the courtyard where Zheng Ruo lived, "I heard that you are sick, so I invited a doctor for you."

Zheng Ruo, who was lying on the bed, smiled slightly, and said to Liu Xu: "Liu Xu, put down the bed curtain. You will sit by the bed and cry later, remember to cry as sadly as possible."

"Girl?" Liu Xu was puzzled.

"Just do what I say." Zheng Ruo closed her eyes and slowed down her breathing. If she looked at it from a distance, she really looked like she was about to die.

At this time, Zheng Wan and Zheng Ru had already entered the house together.When Liu Xu saw it, she knelt down on the edge of the bed, covered her face with her sleeves, and cried.

Smelling the strong smell of medicine in the room, and listening to Liu Xu's mournful cry, the two sisters looked at each other in blank dismay. Could it be that Ah Ruo is really sick?Still sick?

"Go and see."

"No." The doctor stepped forward immediately, and Liu Xu quickly lifted the bed curtain.He looked inside, and saw that the face of the person lying on the bed was as pale as paper, and there were black and black shadows under the eye sockets, especially that one lip was so pale that there was no trace of blood.He put his hand lightly on her wrist, and frowned.From the looks of it, this girl is seriously ill, but why is her pulse smooth and strong?Just when he was about to get up to answer, he touched something hard in his hand, but upon closer inspection it turned out to be a piece of gold leaf.His eyes flickered slightly, and he held the gold leaf in his hand, sweat dripping from his palm.He closed his eyes, as if he was taking his pulse seriously.After a long time, he quietly put the gold leaf into his sleeve.After slowly getting up, he said to the two sisters Zheng Wan who were kneeling on a table not far away: "The girl's wind and evil have invaded, and her lungs are out of breath..."

Zheng Wan interrupted impatiently, "Is Ah Ruo seriously ill?"

The doctor thought for a while, and said: "You need to take several medicines to take care of it. Otherwise, the root cause of the disease will be left behind, and it may be difficult to cure."

"Go down."
