The daily life of a concubine's daughter
Chapter 64 The Daughters-in-law Don't Listen
The old Duke sent away the men who were to take up their posts, and also sent back his great-grandchildren. With a gloomy face, he and his lady dowager led the rest of the people to Tangxi Courtyard.
The lady was so frightened that she kept wiping away tears.
Shi Yao rubbed her eyes vigorously, and she and her sixth sister-in-law Wang Fan supported the trembling lady on both sides, and wiped their tears as well.
As soon as I stepped into Tangxi Courtyard, I heard crying all over the yard.
In the east wing, Zheng sat by the bed, holding her second son's hand, crying out, "My son, my son, what sin have you committed?"
Everyone went in and took a look, and their faces changed.
Shi Mingwei was not only slapped a few times, his face was even swollen!
There was also a circle of bruises on his neck. Because he had always been a drunkard and a playboy, and had no proper job, his skin was extremely white, only slightly darker than Shi Mingzhen among his brothers. Therefore, the bruises were extremely conspicuous and simply shocking.
Shi Yao's breathing stagnated for a moment, and she grinned secretly.
Zheng gave the seat to the old lady. The old lady sat down and stretched out her trembling hand, wanting to touch Shi Mingwei's face, but was afraid of breaking it. She wiped her tears and said, "What deep hatred do the husband and wife have that has led to this?"
Shi Mingwu glanced at his wife Fu Nanjun.
Fu Nanjun stood coldly by the door curtain, twisting his handkerchief, with an expressionless face.
She was the only one among all the women in the room who did not shed tears. Even Shi Yao forced a few tears to suit the occasion.
His heart stagnated and he subconsciously touched the scratch mark on his chin. For a moment, he felt as if his throat was being strangled and he couldn't breathe.
When he and Fu Nanjun were arguing, he threatened Fu Nanjun fiercely, not allowing the Fu family to destroy the Shi family's plan. As they were arguing, Fu Nanjun raised her hand and slapped him! He dodged, and her nails scratched his chin, leaving a long bloody mark.
The couple had not spoken to each other for several days.
He still remembers the look in Fu Nanjun's eyes at that time.
It was as if he not only wanted to slap him, but also wanted to strangle him to death.
After all, she was used to being gentle and could not do anything to pinch him. She never expected that Fu Nanjun did not pinch him, but her second brother's wife slapped and pinched Mingwei.
Zheng's words startled everyone present. She said in a hateful voice, "Grandpa, old lady, you can see what's going on. I don't dare to have a daughter-in-law who murders her own husband and has a vicious heart. If the two of them are together again, I'm afraid Mingwei will lose his life!"
The old Duke said in a deep voice: "Wait until they wake up and find out the right and wrong, then we can make a decision. We in the Shi family have never divorced a woman."
The old lady also hated Le An Ning's cruelty, and choked up and said, "Although the eldest princess is gone, An Ning is the emperor's cousin daughter, a royal relative, and it is not easy to divorce her. Yun Ya and Yun Yi have a divorced mother, and it will not be good for their reputation to spread. What will they say about marriage in the future? The old master is right, let's wait and see. The most urgent thing is to see a doctor for the two children and cure them first."
Zheng had no choice but to suppress her resentment.
Said Cao Cao, Cao Cao.
Three or four doctors arrived one after another carrying medicine boxes. In this cold winter day, they were all sweating profusely.
He immediately went forward one by one to observe, listen, ask and consult the matter.
A doctor named Feng took out a ginseng qi-replenishing pill from the medicine box, dissolved it in hot water, and pried open Shi Mingwei's mouth to pour the pill into his mouth.
After a while, the doctors felt his pulse again, and one of them said with a relieved look, "It should be fine. He will wake up after taking two more doses of medicine. Just don't disturb him, he needs to rest."
The heavy stone that was hanging in everyone's heart fell to the ground, and they supported each other and went out quietly, leaving only the two brothers Shi Mingwu and Shi Mingzhen to guard Shi Mingwei.
At this time, everyone seemed to have just remembered Le An Ning who had hanged herself, and the lady asked the doctor to go and see the unconscious second grandson's wife.
Seven-year-old Shi Yunya and one-and-a-half-year-old Shi Yunyi cried so hard that their faces turned red.
The two brothers held hands and went to their father's room, then to their mother's room. They were like two puppies abandoned by their parents, feeling very anxious.
Zheng wiped her tears and told the nurses to take the two brothers away, coaxing them: "…They are just little kids, don't scare them to death, wait until they wake up and bring them back."
He also drove out the crying maids, saying they were unlucky and said, "Your Second Master and Second Madam are not dead yet, and you are all gathered here to mourn!"
Those who were kicked out were naturally Le Anning's maids who came with her as a dowry.
Only Haiyue and Jianqiu were allowed to serve inside.
Haiyue and Jianqiu were so frightened that they dared not breathe. They quickly wiped away their tears and helped the unconscious Le An Ning up with trembling hands and feet. They changed her into clothes for daily visits and asked the doctor to come in and take her pulse.
The men left first. The lady and Zheng sat in the flower hall waiting for news. The others would not bother to go and see Le An Ning, so they all sat in the flower hall.
Nanny Jin quietly called a few little maids to make tea.
She thought to herself, like master, like servant. The Second Master and Second Madam were unruly. Now that the couple had fallen ill, there was no one in charge of the Tangxi Courtyard. The place was in chaos and they could only cry and do nothing.
Zheng glanced at Fu Nanjun who was sitting there silently, and her already gloomy face turned even more gloomy.
Since the eldest daughter-in-law came back, she has ignored everything and stayed in her room embroidering all day long. She just said that she caught a cold and was too lazy to move, but she was never seen taking any medicine.
These days, she had been taking care of her second and third sons, and that was when she needed a right-hand man, but Fu Nanjun just left her alone. She was so tired that she had not had a good night's sleep. The subordinates often made mistakes and gradually became crooked and lazy.
No one else could care less about what happened today, but Fu Nanjun, as the eldest sister-in-law, could not just stand by and watch. She had to help get the doctor to see Le An Ning.
The more Zheng thought about it, the more he felt that his liver qi was stagnant.
The eldest and second daughter-in-law are both useless. She thought silently and decided to urge the Duke to go to Ningyuan Marquis' Mansion to propose marriage in the spring of next year and marry the youngest daughter-in-law back early to be a helper, otherwise she would be exhausted to death day by day.
Ge Qiuheng and Minghui are childhood sweethearts. The girl has liked Minghui since she was little. Although she has a bit of a spoiled brat temperament, she is extremely respectful in front of her.
Having made up her mind, Zheng became more and more displeased with Fu Nanjun.
Since she has given up on things, the eldest daughter-in-law must not regret it and cry and beg her to give up some power as the housekeeper and director if she uses the fourth daughter of the Ge family in the future.
She just didn't believe that she, as a mother-in-law, couldn't control her daughter-in-law.
As for Le An Ning, she would definitely divorce her if anyone dared to hurt her son.
Shi Yao glanced around, taking in everyone's expressions.
The rebirth golden finger is really useful. Look, my sister-in-law Fu Nanjun has rebelled, and my aunt has glared at her several times.
What she was curious about was what Le An Ning had experienced in his previous life?
Unfortunately, the Book of Merits only gave Le An Ning the memory of rebirth and did not let her see it. The original book only briefly mentioned Shi Mingzhu's previous life, and only focused on the hatefulness of "Shi Yao", the hatred of Zhou Shao and the deep affection of Zhou Xu.
This feeling of trying to spy on a secret while being separated from the secret by a veil made her feel uneasy.
The lady called the maidservant in to ask.
The maid replied timidly: "When we realized something was wrong, the fight between the Second Master and the Second Mistress had almost finished, and we didn't hear what they said clearly."
All I heard was Le Anning calling Shi Mingwei a "shameless person" and saying something like "if you rebel, all nine generations of your clan will be killed", but he didn't dare to tell this in public.
In short, after pulling them apart, Le Anning hanged himself without taking a breath, and the result was the current situation.
