Lu Zhiyuan did as she asked, and couldn't help but complain a few words when he came back.
"You also said that Si Ning has great medical skills, but you repeatedly declined to write a prescription and made people cry. It's really troublesome."
Mrs. Zhang stood up and poured him a cup of hot tea and handed it over. Seeing Lu Zhiyuan reaching out to take it, she walked behind him and squeezed his shoulders while saying.
"What do you mean by making someone cry?"
"I don't know the specifics. Anyway, Si Ning said that her medical skills are not good and that she needs to have a heart-to-heart talk with Wu Qianqian. Maybe if she can talk her out, she won't need to take medicine."
"The two talked for a while inside, and Wu Qianqian cried. I came back with the prescription."
Mrs. Zhang stopped moving her hands and asked with a fixed gaze.
"You mean she didn't intend to prescribe it to the second lady, but then she did it again?"
Lu Zhiyuan nodded, he held Mrs. Zhang's fingers on his shoulders with his backhand, and pulled the person into his arms.
"In my opinion, Qianqian's body looks fine, and she doesn't need to take any soothing prescriptions. Woman, if you give her a few days of cold treatment, she will know how to deal with herself."
Lu Zhiyuan still had the selfishness and indifference of the old lady in his heart. He didn't think it was his fault that Wu Qianqian was worried about gains and losses. Instead, he felt that it was because he was too good to her that she was so careless.
If Nian hadn't had a British official standing behind her, he would have been driven out of the house long ago.
Mrs. Zhang smiled and changed the topic.
"Zhiyuan, this recipe is for the second lady. The second lady is pregnant now. You should be careful in everything. Why don't you give the recipe to me, and I will ask the people below to show you whether the recipe is feasible. Before I give it to you, It’s not too late for the second lady to use it.”
Lu Zhiyuan did not doubt that he was there and handed the prescription to Mrs. Zhang.
Mrs. Zhang held the prescription in her hand, with a cunning light flashing in her eyes.
A few days later, Mrs. Yang came into the house to see Wu Qianqian.
It stands to reason that when a woman gets married, her mother's family will not come to her husband's house to see their daughter.
But Wu Qianqian wrote a letter to Mrs. Yang, saying that she had not slept well recently and was always restless and wanted to see her.
So Mrs. Yang put down what she was doing and came to Ning'an Marquis Mansion to meet Wu Qianqian.
The mother and daughter sat in the room for a long time, and the servant brought medicine to Wu Qianqian.
"It's time for the second lady to take medicine."
Wu Qianqian motioned to the maid to put the medicine aside and started talking to Mrs. Yang.
The maid urged a few words, and Wu Qianqian was a little impatient.
"Didn't you see that I'm talking to my mother? Put the medicine on the stove to warm it up and wait until I want to drink it."
Seeing the worry on her face, Mrs. Yang asked Wu Qianqian.
"What kind of medicine is it? Who prescribed it? Has Third Young Mistress read it?"
Mrs. Yang really cared about Wu Qianqian, but she mentioned Si Ning, which made Wu Qianqian very disgusted.
But she didn't show it and said perfunctorily.
"It's just the anti-fetal medicine. It's nothing serious. Is Auntie okay?"
She changed the subject. Mrs. Yang stopped bringing up those disappointing topics and followed her words.
The two of them forgot about the time while chatting. When Mrs. Yang saw that it was getting late, she got up and left.
Wu Qianqian was reluctant to part with her. She had never seen her mother since she was a child and regarded Mrs. Yang as her biological mother.
She wanted to send Mrs. Yang out, but Mrs. Yang insisted on letting her go back to the house to rest.
"I'm going to pay a visit to the third young lady. When I come to the house, I have to visit her. It would be disrespectful."
If she knew etiquette, Mrs. Yang should visit Mrs. Lu, not Si Ning.
Wu Qianqian felt that everyone had fallen into Si Ning's trap, otherwise why would everyone trust her so much.
Just as she was thinking, someone called her.
Wu Qianqian looked back and happened to catch Butler Wu's concerned gaze.
The scowl on his face flashed away, replaced by a gentle smile.
…
When Mrs. Yang entered the house, the news about Wu Qianqian's refusal to take medicine reached Mrs. Zhang's ears.
She counted the time, returned the prescription to Lu Zhiyuan, and warned.
"Since it is the third young lady's prescription, you still have to eat it, otherwise it will refute the third young lady's feelings and let her know that she should be sad."
She added, "I haven't had time to show this recipe to the people below. If you're worried, you might as well let another doctor take a look at it. Don't go back and eat it if something goes wrong."
Lu Zhiyuan did not take Mrs. Zhang's words to heart.
He handed the prescription directly to the people below and asked them to prepare the medicine for Wu Qianqian according to the prescription.
Later that night, the maid next to Wu Qianqian came to see Mrs. Zhang, looking anxious.
"Madam, can you go and see my wife? Since the afternoon, she has been complaining that her stomach hurts. The servants want to call the doctor, but she refuses. She said she wants to see the second master, but the second master is not here..."
"Madam, you are the person close to the Second Master. I believe the Second Madam will listen to your words. Can you help me to persuade her and call the doctor to take a look at her first?"
Mrs. Yang frowned, with a sharp look in her eyes.
"Your wife has a stomachache. How long has she been suffering from it?"
"It's been hurting for almost an hour. I feel like I'm blushing..."
The little maid's voice was a little lower after she said it. She was so panicked, but Wu Qianqian refused to let her call the doctor no matter what. She had no choice but to come to see Mrs. Zhang.
Mrs. Zhang asked doubtfully, "Then why don't you go find the Third Young Mistress?"
The little maid's face changed when she was asked, and her voice became a little lower.
"The Second Madam also didn't let the servants call the Third Young Mistress..."
After hearing this, Mrs. Zhang's frown relaxed a little.
Looks like it's done!
She calmly smoothed her hair from her temples and said to the little maid.
"The second lady is making such nonsense, how can you let her have her way? Go and call the doctor, send someone to call the second master as well, and then go to the Yang family to tell the news that your second lady is going to give birth. Let Mrs. Yang Come and see people.”
When the little maid heard Mrs. Zhang's words, she was completely panicked.
"Madam, is my second wife about to give birth?"
"My stomach hurts and I'm red. It's not that I'm going to give birth...but I'm not a doctor. The old lady and your husband are very precious about this baby. In addition to Wen Po, we also called the doctor. It's more secure." Some."
The little maid was so frightened that she quickly made arrangements according to Mrs. Zhang's instructions.
After the little maid left, Mrs. Zhang slowly stood up from the chair and went to see Wu Qianqian.
She thought that after entering, Wu Qianqian's house would be in chaos, and she didn't want there to be no sound at all.
She felt strange, but she still opened the door and walked in.
Then I saw a person sitting in front of the dressing table. Who was it if it wasn't Wu Qianqian?
A layer of cold sweat broke out on her face, but she didn't turn red like the maid said.
Mrs. Zhang always felt that something was not right. She hesitated at the door, but finally walked in and asked with a frown.
"What's going on? Didn't your maid say that you..."
