The burnt area of Jia Zhen was too large, and it also included a sensitive area. The worst part was that Jia Zhen scratched the skin of the burn area to pieces while struggling.
After Doctor Wang looked at it carefully, he didn't know what to say. He could only give Mr. Zhen some ointment to treat burns first. In addition, Mr. Zhen drank too much and lay on the cold floor for a long time. It was up to Jia Zhen's own fate.
To show her filial piety, Jia Rong accompanied the imperial doctor until midnight before returning to the courtyard.
"I must have done it." Qin Keqing, who was worried in the middle of the night, had red eyes, as if he had just cried. "If this kind of thing spreads, my reputation will be completely ruined."
"What are you thinking about? It was accidentally injured when I was having fun." Jia Rong comforted him.
It is said that women are emotional creatures. Qin Keqing was both moved and worried that night.
In a feudal society where filial piety governs the country, let alone beating or injuring parents, even contradicting an elder brother is unacceptable.
There are relevant regulations in the laws of each dynasty. No matter which dynasty, disobedience is a serious crime.
But Jia Rong herself is not worried. Everyone knows that Jia Rong has always been afraid of Jia Zhen and would not think of him at all. And he knew what happened tonight. Even after the suffering owner Jia Zhen woke up, she could only insist that she was accidentally burned.
Just because the crime of disobedience involves too much.
Once found guilty, all Jia Rong's elders will be in trouble.
So even if someone in Jia's family is suspicious, they don't dare to say anything? Not only did he not dare, he had to work hard to suppress it.
Jia Rong is not like some idiot who secretly marries during the period of filial piety to the country and family, and clearly shows the evidence to others. If he stabbed him into the palace, he would mess up the family's head.
…………
Early the next morning, the girl in the outhouse reported that a new person had arrived in the yard.
Jia Rong went out and saw that it was the silly maid who delivered water last night. She was twelve or thirteen years old. She was thin but had a round face, like a bun.
When the maid saw Jia Rong, she quickly climbed up and grabbed Jia Rong's legs, crying: "Please save Que'er, Que'er doesn't want to die."
Mrs. Qin came out to dress up and asked, "What happened."
The maid Que'er lowered her head and did not dare to look at Mrs. Qin, she just cried and complained.
"Yesterday, the eldest man's new concubine was slapped in the mouth and locked up by his wife because she said some nonsense. Master, grandma... I don't want to die. Que'er didn't see anything last night, she forgot about it, she forgot ”
Jia Rong laughed dryly and said, "If you can make a bodhisattva-hearted wife slap in the mouth, it seems that she must have said some terrible nonsense. You are not talking nonsense, who will harm you?"
Que'er was about to kowtow to Jia Rong immediately and said, "Quer will not talk nonsense. Even if the uncle wants Que'er's body, he will not tell anyone."
Is this called not telling anyone?
Who the hell wants your body?
Jia Rong was speechless when she saw Qin Keqing's complicated eyes. He quickly pulled the kneeling Que'er up and explained: "She was frightened last night and her memory went wrong. From now on, she will stay in our yard and serve her. She might make some jokes outside."
Qin Keqing had suspicions for a long time, but now after hearing Que'er's words, he decided that the matter was related to his father.
I was also afraid that this stupid maid would tell someone one day, so I agreed. "Let her serve me."
"Uh..." Jia Rong never imagined that Qin Keqing would have such an attitude, so she quickly objected: "I don't want a maid with me, I'll keep you by my side."
"When I go to my wife's house later to say hello, I will ask you to come over. From now on, you will be a member of our courtyard. Everything before this morning should be treated as if it never happened. Just forget about it."
Qin Keqing is a kind person after all. Since his father doesn't want to harm her, he might as well just stay in the yard and discipline her.
When Que'er heard that her grandma accepted her, a bright smile suddenly appeared on her crying face. He hurriedly saluted Mrs. Qin, "Thank you, grandma, and say hello to grandma."
"Okay, you can stay in the yard from now on."
When they arrived at Youshi Courtyard, Jia Rong and Qin Keqing paid their respects together and also asked the maid Que'er to come over.
When leaving, Youshi suddenly said: "Rong'er, please stay here for a while."
"Why do you call me Rong'er, madam?"
"That woman is locked up in the small courtyard to the west." Youshi sighed. Maybe no one would believe what the woman said, but You Shi believed it. From the first day after Jia Rong got married, Youshi had noticed the changes in Jia Rong.
In the past, Rong'er was like a mouse and a cat when she saw the master, hiding everywhere; but after getting married, Rong'er has changed too much... It may not be impossible to do such a thing. Things have already happened, Youshi doesn't care about the truth, she just wants nothing more to happen to her family.
Youshi said intermittently: "Although she is arrogant, after all...if she doesn't talk nonsense anymore, she will stay in that yard. If she talks nonsense again...Rong'er will make a decision."
"It's easy." Jia Rong nodded. It turns out that no matter how kind-hearted a Bodhisattva is, he will become cruel at some point.
…………
The news of last night reached Xifu early in the morning. When Mrs. Qin came to Xifu to pay her respects, Jia Mu asked, "How is Rong's master doing?"
Embarrassment flashed across Qin's face, and she felt that this incident was caused by her, and she was afraid of tiring Jia Rong. He said gloomily: "I heard from Dr. Wang that he woke up once early in the morning, but his three souls did not return and his consciousness was blurred. He also said that the master was weak, his energy was exhausted, and he caught wind and cold last night. There is still a third of medicine that can cure the external injuries. But his body ... After raising it for half a year, it will be fine if it gets better."
"Mr. Wang's medical skills are superb, so what he said is true." Jia Mu sighed, "It's all his own fault. He lost his life early and didn't leave Brother Rong with two brothers to help him. Your family is very thin, so you and Brother Rong need to give birth to a few sons as soon as possible."
Qin Keqing blushed and hummed.
She was not the only one blushing, but also Sister Feng.
It has been four years since Wang Xifeng married into Jia's family, but her stomach has not moved. Mrs. Xing had complained countless times at home. Although Jia Mu never mentioned it seriously, Sister Feng knew in her heart that her ancestors were pampering her and that was why she didn't beat him.
Mrs. Xing, who had no eyesight, suddenly said: "If you want to have a child, it's very simple. There are so many girls in our two houses, and if we give Brother Rong a few concubines, we will be more prosperous even if we don't have a large population."
At this moment, Sister Feng not only blushed, but also turned dark.
Wang Xifeng is such a shrewd person, how could he not understand that his wife was talking about taking a concubine for Brother Rong, but in fact she was blaming herself for always staring at his son. She wants to be pampered all the time, but she can't have children.
As if she didn't understand, Jia Mu took Qin Keqing's hand and comforted her with a smile: "Don't listen to her nonsense. Everyone has their own fate. If you worry about it, you won't be in a hurry until fate comes. People like us , are you afraid that no one will be reincarnated?"
The younger ones below were also laughing. Tanchun came out from the commotion and said, "Sister Ganglin said it right."
Lin Daiyusu was close to Tanchun. When she saw that she wanted to tell her what she had said, she chased Tanchun and refused to let her speak.
Daiyu couldn't stop her, but Tanchun rushed to say: "Sister Lin just said: Those reincarnated people must be rushing to come to our house, so they started fighting on the way, which delayed the time."
Everyone laughed when they heard this.
Mrs. Duxing looked at her coldly, blaming Jia Mu for being partial and resenting Tanchun.
Qin Keqing is a thoughtful person. He didn't hear what Mrs. Xing said and just thought he didn't do a good job. At this moment, Jia's mother comforted her and two younger aunts came to the rescue. She looked gratefully at Tanchun and Daiyu.
I feel a lot closer to them.
