Reborn Doctor

Chapter 74

"Tongniang, don't you explain to mother what happened today?" After returning home, Mrs. Su immediately questioned Kou Tong.

Mother didn't even change her clothes, she just asked herself anxiously, it seemed that mother was very angry.

The more this time, the more I have to calm down.

She raised a smile and asked: "Mother, don't worry, what do you want to ask, I will tell you if I know!"

"Tong Niang!"

After listening to Kou Tong's words, Mrs. Su couldn't help but feel her heart sinking. From the looks of it, her daughter really has a very close relationship with the Prince of Marquis of Yongchang.As soon as I asked her, she knew it, and she still looked unrepentant.

Her voice could not help but become sharper: "What's going on today? Could it be that you have taken a fancy to the wealth of the Yongchang Hou Mansion, so you forgot that you are a person with a marriage contract? This marriage contract was made by your father himself, you How could you be so dishonest and disregard your father's last wish? You have let mother down so much!"

As soon as the words were spoken, Su Shi regretted it.How could she say such ugly words?Tong Niang is still just a child, if there is anything wrong, just teach her slowly, how can I reprimand her so mercilessly?
But what is said is like water being poured out, Tong Niang did something wrong, she must teach her a lesson, this is not the time to soften her heart.

With a livid face, she sat on the chair and did not look at Kou Tong.

"Mother!" Kou Tong blushed, tears welling in his eyes.

Since she grew up, her mother had never accused her in such a harsh tone.For Zheng Shixiu's sake, for the Zheng family's sake, her mother actually said such ugly words, she felt extremely wronged.

She had already made up her mind that she would stay far away from the Zheng family in this life, and she was prepared for her mother's opposition. She never thought that when her mother scolded her like this, it would make people feel so uncomfortable.

However, since she wanted to withdraw from such a marriage, this was the only way she had to go.Being scolded by her mother is nothing, as long as she can leave Zheng's house far away, she can bear anything.

"Mother, listen to me!" Kou Tong said, kneeling down.

The mother and daughter remained in a stalemate until Kou Tong knelt down.

Seeing it, Su felt a little distressed. She wanted to help Kou Tong up, but she still hardened her heart.

"Go ahead!"

"Mother, if I say that the Zheng family doesn't want to recognize such a marriage at all, do you believe what my daughter said?"

When Kou Tong's words reached Su Shi's ears, she felt a shock in her heart: "How do you know that Zheng's family doesn't want to recognize him?"

"We've been in Nanjing for a long time, but the Zheng family has never visited us." Kou Tong paused and said, "It's not that the Zheng family doesn't know we're back. In fact, the Zheng family does know."

"Have you met the Zheng family?"

"Yes!" Kou Tong said, "When we were in the Kou family's old house on Jinxiu Road, the Fourth Uncle's grandmother's illness was healed by Imperial Physician Zheng!"

Su asked: "Didn't you tell me last time that Imperial Physician Zheng thought you were a girl from the fourth room because of your fourth uncle's grandmother's obstruction?"

"The fourth uncle and grandmother stopped me, but Imperial Physician Zheng finally found out that I was the eldest lady of the sixth room. I was afraid that my mother would be angry, so I didn't tell the truth."

"Tong Niang, you didn't lie to me?" Su's voice was a little difficult.

"Mother, what have I lied to you so far?" Kou Tong smiled wryly: "Besides, Zheng Shixiu, the young master of the Zheng family, has some involvement with the eldest sister. For this reason, even the eldest aunt and cousin Qixuan gave birth to the eldest sister. angry!"

The eldest aunt and Brother Xuan were angry with Sister Yan, and she knew about it, but she didn't expect that the instigator was actually the brother of the Zheng family.

Su Shi still didn't want to believe it: "What you said is true?"

"Ok!"

Seeing Kou Tong nodding heavily, Su's tears fell like broken beads, she hugged Kou Tong's shoulders, and cried bitterly: "Tong Niang, why is your life so hard?
Why didn't you tell your mother earlier, why did you hide it in your heart alone?

Today I told others that you have a marriage contract, who will come to your door to propose marriage to you in the future?
Mother is really useless, can't help you, and drags you down. "

Su's crying made Kou Tong feel very uncomfortable: "Mother, it's my fault. I shouldn't have said these things to you. I'm afraid you will feel uncomfortable."

"You silly boy... what will you do in the future?"

"Mother, listen to me." Kou Tong helped Mrs. Su up, and persuaded: "Mother, although you said that I was engaged, you didn't say who it is, so it's not a big problem; there are not many people present today. , even if they know, it’s no big deal. These wives are from high-ranking families, and now I don’t have a father or brother, so I’m afraid it’s impossible to marry into such a family. So, we are not afraid of what they say.”

Su's mood gradually calmed down: "Even so, this marriage of the Zheng family is really a pity!"

"What a pity!" Kou Tong was afraid that Su Shi would think so, and hurriedly said: "First of all, the Zheng family doesn't value this marriage, if it is forced into a marriage, then in the husband's house, the daughter will live a miserable life. Secondly , then the brother of the Zheng family has some entanglements with the eldest sister, he may not be a good man, I don't care for such a man as a husband!"

Su Shi listened and nodded.

"Mother, since the marriage of the Zheng family can no longer be counted on, why not burn the marriage certificate?" Kou Tong continued his efforts.

"How can this be done!" Su disagreed: "It's harmless to keep the marriage certificate, just in case the Zheng family wants to pass it! Before we meet the Zheng family, we can't make a rash decision. Let's talk about it after I see the Zheng family!"

Kou Tong couldn't help being anxious!
She couldn't help but think of what Zheng Shixiu said before leaving, and also the way Doctor Zheng looked at her.What if Zheng Shixiu came back from the capital for that medical book and really came to propose marriage?
By that time, wouldn't I be out of luck!
Su Shi noticed Kou Tong's strangeness, it seemed that as soon as Zheng's family was mentioned, Tong Niang became inexplicably nervous: "Tong Niang, what's wrong with you? Are you frowning so tightly?"

"It's nothing!" Kou Tong said with a smile, "We've been in Nanjing for a while, and it's not a good idea to always wait for the Zheng family to come to our door. Why don't we take the initiative to visit the Zheng family these two days. If the Zheng family recognizes such a marriage , Naturally... Naturally it is very good. If the Zheng family does not recognize it, then we should make plans early. A few days ago, Zimo said that the capital will select female imperial physicians, so I want to try it. Let's settle the affairs of the Zheng family, so that we can live without distractions Jing. No matter what the result is, it's better than waiting here endlessly!"

Su Shi also felt that her daughter was right, so she nodded, agreeing with Kou Tong's words.

While Su's mother and daughter were talking here, in Yongchanghou's mansion, Guan Yi was also pulled by Mrs. Yongchanghou to ask what was going on.

"Just for your sake, I will invite these ladies and ladies to my home today in the name of your grandmother. Now, Dr. Xiao Kou has become famous. If you really like Dr. Xiao Kou, there is nothing wrong with doing this, but this little Kou What's the matter with the doctor's marriage contract? I don't remember when you made an engagement with her!"

"Mother, I know you love me." Guan Yi said with a playful smile, "Doctor Xiao Kou has a marriage contract, it's like this..."

Guan Yi told Mrs. Yongchang Hou about the results of his investigation, and the Zheng family had never mentioned their marriage with Kou Tong for so many years, and they did not recognize this marriage.

Mrs. Marquis of Yongchang felt relieved when she heard this: "Then you have to get out of the engagement as soon as possible. If you don't get out of the marriage in one day, you can't take it lightly."

"Yes!" Guan Yi was very happy to see his mother being so easy-going: "Don't worry, mother, I will definitely handle the matter properly. Just wait and drink daughter-in-law tea!"

"What daughter-in-law's tea!" Yongchang Hou walked in with a worried expression on his face: "You are too foolish! What are you entangled with a woman who has a marriage contract? Why don't a man have a wife! Anyway, she has not divorced the Zheng family yet. If you don't retire for a day, she will be engaged to her for a day. If you keep pestering her, it will ruin our family's reputation. You'd better stay away from that little Kou doctor!"

Mrs. Yongchanghou frowned when she heard this: How could she not know that her son's entanglement with a married woman would be bad for his reputation!But her son has never been tempted by a woman for so many years, and he finally fell in love with him, and he is a good person. If he misses it, Guan Yi will like others again in the future.

Her elder sister is only two years older than her, and now her eldest grandson has started to read the Three Character Classic for Enlightenment, and her little granddaughter can also toddler on the bed. Is that good?

"Master Hou!" Mrs. Yongchang Hou said hurriedly: "Don't worry, isn't this matter a word? It's not like getting married tomorrow! Besides, our family Guan Yi is not a person who doesn't know how to advance or retreat, and he certainly won't." He came here to discredit the Yongchang Hou Mansion. You can rest assured!"

As she spoke, she winked at Guan Yi.

If it was in the past, with Guan Yi's temperament, he would have contradicted Yongchanghou long ago, or would have left in a huff.

In fact, he thought so at first.

My father objected now because Tong'er had a marriage contract, and he didn't hate Tong'er herself.Once he left like this, I'm afraid my father would really hate Tong'er.

A daughter-in-law who is not liked by her parents-in-law is always very difficult in her husband's house.His Tong'er needs to be loved and loved, and he doesn't want Tong'er to be wronged.

So he said respectfully: "What the father taught, the son will remember. Don't worry, father, the son will definitely not damage the reputation of Yongchang Houfu."

"En!" Seeing his son so obedient, Hou Yongchang felt that he had regained his dignity as a father.

"Master Hou, don't be too anxious. After all, this matter is just our family's burden of shaving. I'm afraid Doctor Xiao Kou still looks down on our son!"

Mrs. Yongchang Hou deserves to be the person who knows her husband best. She made Yongchang Hou furious with one word: "Why does she look down on Guan Yi? How can our son not be worthy of him?"

As he spoke, his eyes widened: "Son, you have to work hard! Don't lose face to our Yongchang Hou Mansion. If you can't even please a girl's family, you don't deserve to be my son!"

After hearing this, Guan Yi almost staggered...
