In the rebirth, the abandoned wife of a noble family turned black

Jiang Ruanxi didn't know everything that happened in the Zhenguo Hou Mansion, and he didn't care, because a few days after they came back, the plague began to spread in Kyoto.

Zhou came in hurriedly, "Don't go out these days. I heard that this disease is coming very violently. Half of the people in Kyoto are infected, and even the imperial palace has been spared."

He frowned, "Mother, Your Majesty hasn't sent any news yet, so don't talk nonsense."

"Oh, how dare I say such nonsense? I heard that His Highness the Crown Prince fell ill after returning from Guangming Temple. He had red spots all over his body and kept coughing. Several imperial doctors went over to see him and they all diagnosed him with the plague."

Jiang Ruanxi's heart sank. It seemed that he was indeed right that day. Those refugees were carrying infectious diseases.

"Mom, what should we do? We also went to Guangming Temple, could we be infected too?" Lin Tingting said anxiously.

"Sister-in-law is right. His Majesty has not expressed his position yet. We are here to discuss or spread rumors. If others find out about this matter and your Majesty pursues it, we at Dingninghou Mansion will not be able to live with it."

When Jiang Ruan Xi said this, Lin Tingting shrank in fright and did not dare to say a word.

Zhou's face turned pale with fright, and she asked Jiang Ruan Xi anxiously, "Then what should we do now?"

"We will wait and see what happens. Before the matter is determined, it is best for us not to go out. Otherwise, if we are really infected, we will not spread it to others."

Lin Tingting did not have the arrogance she had in the past, and obeyed Jiang Ruanxi's words obediently.

"Second sister-in-law is right, let's not go out for a while. I'm going back to the house first."

Zhou also knew the seriousness of the matter, "Then I will go back first."

Jiang Ruanxi knew that they were worried about the infection, so she didn't care. But when she saw that He hadn't left yet, she became a little curious, "Sister-in-law, aren't you going back?"

"If I really got infected at Guangming Temple, what's the use of avoiding it now?" He touched his belly, "I just hope that the child in my belly will be okay."

"Sister-in-law went to pray to Bodhisattva this time. I believe Bodhisattva heard my sister-in-law's prayer, and nothing will happen to you or the child."

Hearing Jiang Ruanxi's comfort, Mr. He felt much better.

But thinking of what happened to Jiang Ruan Xi, after thinking about it for a while, he still spoke.

"Second brother and sister, what the second brother did was a bit confusing, but now that he knows his mistakes and can correct them, why not give him a chance?"

Jiang Ruanxi smiled and said, "I don't know if it has really changed. As for opportunities, they are never given by others. Sister-in-law, don't you think so?"

Thinking of the dirty and disgusting things Lin Ningkun did, He understood Jiang Ruanxi's thoughts and couldn't say anything else.

After she left, Jiang Ruanxi returned to the room.

"Madam, it is just as you thought. Now the Jiang family is searching for medicinal materials in Kyoto. It seems that they have found the formula."

Jiang Ruanxi nodded and was not surprised.

In the last life, when the plague broke out, it was the Jiang family who found the formula and bought a lot of medicinal materials to help the court tide over this crisis.

The court valued them more, and their prestige was even higher in the hearts of the people.

But this time, she wouldn't give them a chance.

"But don't worry, madam. He Kui has long hoarded the medicinal materials in Kyoto and even the medicinal materials nearby. Even if the second master searches all over Kyoto, he can't find them."

Hongye really admires Jiang Ruanxi now, as if she knew there was a plague early. No wonder Jiang Ruanxi often asked her to rush He Kui about medicinal materials some time ago, and asked her to boil the medicinal materials when there was nothing wrong.

I just don’t know why Jiang Ruan Xi has the medicinal materials in his hands, why doesn’t he give them to the Jiang family?

In the past, Jiang Ruan Xi was always responsive to the Jiang family's requests. When the Jiang family was in trouble, even if he sometimes wronged himself, he would always help the Jiang family.

"Go tell He Kui and let the Jiang family know about their search for medicinal materials. By the way, the Jiang family is the source of the infection."

Hongye was surprised, "Madam, what if His Majesty investigates this?"

Jiang Ruanxi flipped the lid of the tea cup and said, "Don't worry, it's better to check it out. I'm worried that he won't check it out."

"By the way, give this set of medicinal materials to He Kui and ask him to find a way to deliver it to the Prince's Mansion. It's best not to be discovered."

Jiang Ruanxi went into the inner room and took out a package of packaged medicinal materials. There were about five small packages in it.

"Yes, ma'am."

Hongye knew that this was a life-saving medicine and took it seriously.

After Hongye left, Jiang Ruanxi looked at the newly planted plum tree outside the window.

Although it was only recently planted, it has already begun to sprout.

Even if the situation is difficult, new branches will eventually grow.

**

"Hongye, wait for me to rest."

Jiang Ruanxi looked at the account books for a day and was already exhausted. She stretched out her hands and asked Hongye to undress her.

But the moment the hand behind her touched her, she felt something was wrong and quickly retracted her hand.

"Who?"

Jiang Ruanxi turned around and poured the tea on the table, "Who gave you the courage to enter my room?"

Just when he saw the appearance clearly, Jiang Ruanxi was startled by the scene in front of him.

For so many days, she kept asking Hongye to stop him, but she didn't expect him to come in.

"Master Hou, why is it you?" Jiang Ruanxi looked at Lin Ningkun, who had a few tea leaves hanging on his face after being splashed on his face. He felt a little funny, but still pretended to be surprised on the surface.

If it had been before, Lin Ningkun would have walked away long ago, but thinking that he was now compensating Jiang Ruan Xi, holding back the anger in his heart, Lin Ningkun had a cold face, raised his hand to take away the tea leaves from his face, and brushed away the tea stains on his body.

Jiang Ruanxi suppressed a smile and called outside, "Hongye, come in with a clean towel."

Lin Ningkun had been angry for the past few days, but when he saw Jiang Ruan Xi caring about him so much, all the old and new hatreds disappeared.

"No need." When Hong Ye came in, Lin Ningkun waved his hand, "I am your husband after all, you come and serve me."

"Master Marquis, my wife does not know how to serve others, so she should be a slave."

"I told you to get lost. Don't you know who the master of the Hou Mansion is?"

Lin Ningkun's suppressed temper finally broke out.

He could tolerate Jiang Ruan Xi, but he would not spoil a servant.

Hongye was frightened by his words, and couldn't help but shrink back, looking at Jiang Ruanxi aggrievedly and not daring to say a word.

Jiang Ruanxi's face also fell.

Beating a dog depends on the owner.

If Lin Ningkun bullies her in her place, she will not tolerate him.

Taking the towel, Jiang Ruanxi winked at Hongye and asked her to go out first.

"The Marquis is so angry today that he took it out on my maid. If you don't like me, there's no need to come here. Just tell me what the Marquis has to do today? I'm tired and want to sleep. ”

The implication is, if you have something to say, get out of here.
