In the past two months, Li Shu had to prepare for the sacrifice. She was doing it for the first time, so she tried not to make any mistakes. She was still old enough to collect the accounts, so she didn't have so much time to take care of Zheng Hao.
Zheng Hao also said that he was going to stay in the temple, and Li Shu asked someone to prepare luggage and send it there. He had been away for at least two months. Unexpectedly, when he came back, he fainted.
There was nothing bigger than Zheng Hao. She put down what she was doing and hurried to the study.
Since returning to Zheng's house, Zheng Hao has lived in a cubicle in the study, while Lishu lives in the backyard with his two children. For fear of others gossiping, Lishu rarely comes to his study and only orders people to arrange things properly. On weekdays, Zheng Hao spent most of his time eating with her in the backyard, and only went to the study to rest at night.
When Li Shu came to the study, she saw Zheng Hao lying on the bed, surrounded by a large group of servants and maids who were circling anxiously.
Thinking that he died at the age of forty-four in his previous life, Li Shu was also heartbroken. As soon as she came over, the people around her seemed to have found a backbone.
"Did you find the doctor?"
"Going to find it."
Li Shu saw that his face was pale and his eyes were closed. She stretched out a trembling hand and touched his forehead. Huh, she breathed a long sigh of relief. Fortunately, she didn't have a fever.
She looked at Rong Xi, the servant who was serving Zheng Hao: "What's going on? My uncle has always been in good health. He was still practicing the Jingchu sword recently. There is no reason for him to faint like this."
Rong Xi said with a bitter face: "It's always been good, but our master eats very little. As you know, the vegetarian food in the temple is delicious, but you can't always eat it. But in this quiet place of Buddhism, my uncle is here." He keeps filial piety, so he doesn’t use it much.”
"You mean you fainted from hunger?" Li Shu couldn't believe it.
But at the same time, she reacted and felt that she was incompetent. When she accompanied her grandmother to worship Buddha, she ate too light. She was not her father-in-law at that time, and she could imagine that she had lost her head.
When Rong Xi saw this, he couldn't help but said: "I don't want us to tell you and my wife, because I'm afraid that you will be worried if you find out. He has always been very face-conscious. If the doctor finds out, I'm afraid it won't be good..."
When Rong Xi said this, several others agreed.
Li Shu frowned: "No, we still need to ask the doctor to come over." Her husband's body is not a joke.
After a while, the doctor also came over. The doctor opened Zheng Hao's eyelids and looked at him. He also said the same thing and said: "After a while, can you just make some rice soup? I'm very hungry. I suddenly ate a lot of meat." The fish must be bad.”
After hearing this, Li Shu felt funny and distressed at the same time. She sent the doctor out with a lot of thanks and prepared to make rice porridge herself. Before leaving, she left two of her maids here before she could go out safely.
Rong Xi felt relieved when he saw Li Shu go to the kitchen with his own eyes. He breathed a sigh of relief when he escaped by urinating.
The doctor who had just treated Zheng Hao was now counting money on the carriage. The servant next to him said: "Two hundred taels is enough. With this money, you will have the capital to go south to do business."
The doctor looked at the huge Jinshi memorial arch standing in front of Zheng's house. He was so frightened that he kept urging the coachman to hurry up.
Yesterday, the sun just came out, and today it started to snow.
Sitting in the room, Ms. Shu was far less motherly than when Sister Ling was by her side. The person who made her childless finally got his comeuppance.
Just when Zheng Hao was going to Baoying Temple, she quickly realized that her opportunity had come.
If he went to any other place, Shu would not be able to attack him, but it was Baoying Temple. Back then, when she came to Xingzhou with her father to take up his post, she rescued a man on the way. Only later did she find out his identity. It turned out that he was the crown prince of the local vassal. Unfortunately, vassal princes usually chose their first wives locally. Military background.
At that time, my father believed that these vassal kings were like raising pigs and had no future. Only the children of aristocratic families like the Zheng family could make a living. If they could really take the imperial examination and serve as officials, and become generals and prime ministers, that would be real glory.
Therefore, she suppressed the matter and never mentioned it, but later she heard that the prince later succeeded the king, but he had a hobby. He loved to practice Taoism and called himself a monk, but he also liked to hang out with Buddhist monks.
It happened that Zheng Hao was afraid of disturbing the peace of Buddhism, so he only brought a boy and a long attendant.
Shu, who often observed Zheng Hao in the dark, knew of course that Rong Xi was sent to him as a servant by Mrs. Ju Er after Zheng Hao came back. He was usually very smart and a native of Xingzhou.
She first found Mrs. Ju Er privately. According to Mrs. Ju Er, she went to Qingyang to visit the Sixth Old Lady. Among the two maids around the Sixth Old Lady, Ye'er Miao'er, especially Ye'er's family was originally poor, but later became She suddenly became rich and even ransomed Ye'er, so her old man suspected that it might be the Liu family.
During this period, Mrs. Liu was busy with sacrifices, which were very complicated, especially for a family as big as the Zheng family. Women in their thirties and forties were usually afraid of making mistakes, let alone a young person like her.
Seizing this opportunity, Mrs. Shu met privately with Mrs. Gu Er in a teahouse and withdrew, and the two of them controlled Rong Xi's family.
As long as Rong Xi said that Zheng Hao was hungry, the doctor they went out to find had already been prepared. Zheng Hao would have died if he missed the best period of treatment.
From then on, there was no one left in the eldest house. Zheng Qing couldn't support it. Zheng Hao's two sons were still very young. Master Zheng and Mrs. Zheng were almost six people.
Shu didn't expect that the opportunity she was looking forward to would come so soon. Her son was dead, and she had been a walking dead for so many years. It was obvious that she was ready to commit suicide. Mrs. Liu scolded her, Zheng Hao drove her nephew away, and she made life difficult for them all.
Don't underestimate the counterattacks of little people, it's you who are unkind.
Without the skin of the clan's eldest son and clan's wife, how could you, Zheng Hao and Liu, be shaking? What are you better than us? Especially Mrs. Liu, who is not as intelligent as her at all. She deserves to attack this and retaliate as soon as she comes to power.
She had wanted to take revenge on Zheng Hao from a long time ago, especially as time went by, her hatred became more and more unbearable. She didn't expect that she would be able to take action so soon.
Li Shu, who was cooking porridge in the kitchen, said to Zhu Lan beside her: "Are you going to invite the doctor from Huichun Hall again? Go quickly. I can't believe one side of the story."
Zhulan was stunned: "Don't you trust the doctor just now?"
"I don't really trust you. Maybe it's because I come from the Liu family. Even people I know very well may not really trust you." Li Shu glanced at Zhulan and warned: "Be careful and avoid others. "
Zhulan left quickly. She really felt that her grandma didn't trust anyone. As for after Zhulan left, Lishu saw Siyu nodding slightly at the door.
Li Shu quickly handed the porridge here to someone to watch over the fire, then came out and said to Siyu: "Is the doctor here?"
"Don't worry, I just arrived. I took your pair of cards and invited him from the back door. Did Zhulan just go out?" Siyu asked.
Lishu nodded: "I asked her to go out to see a doctor, at least three consultations. Otherwise, it will be bad if something happens. The uncle once studied in the temple for three years and had nothing to do. He was good at both civil and military skills and was good at diet. It’s even more impossible to eat random things, so I have to figure out whether I’m really hungry.”
The doctor hired this time was a doctor from the local Shennong Hall in Xingzhou. This doctor obviously did a more thorough examination than the one Rong Xi and the others hired before. He also asked Rong Xi if Zheng Hao had eaten anything, and Rong Xi shook his head.
At this time, Li Shu came in, and Zheng Hao on the bed began to breathe excitedly, convulsed and vomited at the end. :,,
