After getting Prince Zhongshun's nod of approval, Jia Yun allowed everyone in the Zhen family to attend the funeral at home.
However, in terms of the time for the Zhen family to attend to the funeral, the Zhen family was only given seven extra days.
As soon as the old lady of the Zhen family passed away, she would be laid to rest.
Then, everyone in the Zhen family will follow Jia Yun back to the capital. As prisoners awaiting trial, they will be escorted to the capital and let Yousi Yamen and Emperor Yongtai make the final decision.
After the death of the old lady of the Zhen family, everyone in the Zhen family also lost their energy and spirit. Their faces completely lost the spirit of the past. Instead, they had a kind of despair and sadness, as if they had lost their backbone, and they suddenly became decadent. .
In the past, Zhen Baoyu was frightened into having a high fever after experiencing this big change.
The high fever persisted, but it frightened everyone in the Zhen family to death.
While everyone in the Zhen family had to attend to the funeral of the old lady of the Zhen family, they were also busy with Zhen Baoyu's illness.
Mrs. Xu is the head of one and the elder of two.
As the chief housekeeper of the Zhen family's inner house, whether it is the funeral of the old lady of the Zhen family or the illness of her son Zhen Baoyu, these are all things that concern her.
Fortunately, among those guarding the Zhen family, some were brought here by Jia Yun.
Although they could not let go of everyone in the Zhen family openly, it was okay to invite a few doctors to come over and treat Zhen Baoyu.
Zhen Yingjia was also very decadent. He knew that the Zhen family was really doomed.
I'm afraid that from now on, the Zhen family will completely fall from a wealthy family into the clouds and be relegated to the status of a loach.
Mrs. Xu and others focused their whole hearts on Zhen Baoyu. They stayed beside Zhen Baoyu's hospital bed and cried, "Baoyu! Our ancestors are gone. Nothing can happen to you!"
Everyone was crying, and Mrs. Xu kept chattering some trivial words.
The eldest daughter Zhen Shuyu next to her couldn't help but stop crying, looked at the doctor beside her, and asked: "Doctor, how is my brother? Can he still be saved?"
Although the doctor is also a charlatan, he has been practicing medicine in Jinling Mansion for many years, so he is not a quack.
After thinking for a while, he looked at Mrs. Xu, Zhen Shuyu and others, and said, "Your young master is suffering from panic and anger. He is so angry that he is so angry. In addition, the weather has been changing recently and he has been infected with wind evil. Therefore, this is why he is so angry." I can’t afford to be sick.”
To put it bluntly, because Zhen Baoyu was in a bad mood, coupled with the recent changes in temperature, she caught a cold. After such a combination, it directly evolved into a severe cold.
A severe cold was not a simple illness in ancient times, but a rather serious disease.
If he could not breathe this time, it would be very possible for Zhen Baoyu to die from now on.
Zhen Shuyu stood up and asked the doctor off when he was seeing him off: "Doctor, please tell me the truth! Can my brother be saved?"
The doctor was not a heartless person, but had been in contact with the Zhen family for many years. He often came to the Zhen family to treat people in the house, and he was also an old acquaintance.
Now, although the Zhen family is in trouble, their home has been ransacked.
However, there is still some affection between them.
As a moral and conscientious doctor, he looked at Zhen Shuyu and said, "I can only give it a try for his disease. As for whether the prescribed prescription will work, then I can't guarantee it to the eldest girl. "
After the doctor finished speaking, Zhen Shuyu's face suddenly changed slightly, and she hurriedly lowered her head and glanced at the jade bracelet in her hand.
This is the jade bracelet that Mrs. Zhen left to Zhen Shuyu before she died. It was said that after Zhen Shuyu gets married, it will be used as a family heirloom when she gets married, and will be passed down to her sons from generation to generation.
Therefore, this family heirloom jade bracelet is always worn on Zhen Shuyu's wrist. Only when she is resting at night, for fear of getting up in the middle of the night and turning over and breaking it, will she take it off and put it in the boudoir. In the box.
Now, most of the Zhen family's property has been confiscated and sealed in boxes, and has been transported to the official ship at Jinling Pier.
Here, the Zhen family has finished the funeral of the old lady of the Zhen family, and then they will be transported to the capital with everyone in the Zhen family.
As for the jade bracelet in Zhen Shuyu's hand, it was not taken away by the arresters and government officials who ransacked the house.
After all, Jia Yun had already spread the word that he wanted all three girls from the Zhen family.
These people didn't dare to commit suicide and search Zhen Shuyu.
Therefore, even if they suspected that Zhen Shuyu might have something like a banknote hidden on her body, they really did not dare to search her body. They could only pretend to be ignorant and turn a blind eye. Pass.
Zhen Shuyu naturally knew the secrets involved, and her heart was full of gratitude to Jia Yun. .Ь.
But when Zhen Shuyu thought of her brother Zhen Baoyu's condition, she couldn't help but look down at the jade bracelet in her hand, looked at the doctor, and said, "Mr. Zhang, you are also an old friend of our family.
This is an ancestral jade bracelet from my family. It was pawned in a pawn shop outside. It is worth at least a few hundred taels of silver.
I beg you, our Zhen family only has this one seedling, and my mother is counting on Baoyu to carry on the family lineage and continue the ancestral tradition of the Zhen family!
Just be a helper and help our Zhen family.
As long as you can save my brother this time, I will make the decision and give it to you. "
After saying that, Zhen Shuyu hurriedly took off the jade bracelet from her wrist and placed it in Zhang Langzhong's hand.
The doctor Zhang lowered his head and glanced at the jade bracelet handed over by Zhen Shuyu, knowing that it was a very valuable item. Xiu Shuzhu
He thought for a moment in his mind: The Zhen family has the support of the Jia family, so they should not be punished until death.
Let me see! Sooner or later, they will come back to Jinling Mansion to make a living and run a business.
If I collect the Zhen family's belongings at this time, will the Zhen family come to settle accounts with me after the fall when they regain their power?
Zhang Langzhong is just a charlatan in the Jinling Prefecture, but he has no fame, he is just a commoner.
Even though Dr. Zhang had practiced medicine in Jinling Mansion for many years, he had accumulated some wealth, and he could be regarded as having some friendship with wealthy families.
But if you lose your head because of this incident and offend the powerful, that would be a foolish thing.
Thinking about it, Zhang Langzhong thought that as long as the Jia Mansion in Jinling and the Rongguo Mansion and Yun Mansion in the capital were not destroyed, then the Zhen family would not really be dead, and there would be great possibilities and opportunities to turn around in the future.
As the saying goes, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse.
Although the Zhen family is in trouble now, the Zhen family may still have some backup plans.
When the time comes, after these powerful people come to power again, won't it be easy to deal with such a small and unruly man like him?
Therefore, even if Zhang Langzhong wanted to accept the jade bracelet in his heart, in the face of the danger of death, he still had to carefully consider whether he would offend the Zhen family too much and make a big enemy.
Immediately, Zhang Langzhong shook his head and said, "To be fair, Miss, I also know about the matter between you and Mr. Jia.
I won’t accept this jade bracelet today!
However, I can reveal a little tidbit to the older girl.
I heard that the girl from the Xue family in Jinling Prefecture was suffering from a strange disease before she married the current Master Zaifu..."
