After rebirth, I became a national teacher

The only hostess, Old Madam Yuan, has been bedridden for quite some time because she caught a cold due to the sudden turn of weather.

When people get older, most of them cannot stand illness.

What's more, she had a cold, which is a very dangerous disease even for young people.

Even though she called the doctor to adjust the prescription every day, her condition did not improve much.

Seeing his wife lying drowsy on the bed, Censor Yuan didn't even want to go to the Inspection Office for report.

He had seen too many people who were originally healthy but died suddenly because of a cold.

He was afraid that his wife might be one of them.

He could accept the separation and death of other people, but he could not imagine the day when he came back from duty and she was no longer at home.

When she woke up early this morning, Old Madam Yuan finally felt a little better and had the strength to speak. She discovered that he had not been to the yamen for several days, so she immediately sent him there.

Seeing that his wife seemed to be getting better, Censor Yuan felt relieved and went to the yamen early in the morning to deal with the official business that had been piled up for several days.

Now he still doesn't take care of things, and there are not many official documents that require his attention.

After working for a whole morning, he finished processing the backlog of documents.

Thinking of his wife's recent poor appetite due to a cold, which made everything she ate taste bitter and greasy, he decided to get off work early and take a detour to the legendary Zhenbaozhai to buy two refreshing and appetizing snacks for his wife.

The name of this Zhenbaozhai restaurant is as its meaning. The dim sum here is more expensive than treasures. One or two taels of silver is only enough to buy one dim sum, but the dim sum is so delicious that you can't stop eating it.

Of course, Censor Yuan had never eaten such expensive snacks, but he accidentally heard his subordinates chatting before, saying that they bought snacks from Zhenbaozhai to please the sick concubine in his family and whet her appetite. He thought that the snacks must be suitable for patients.

When I arrived at Zhenbaozhai, I found that there were quite a few people queuing.

Upon asking, I found out that many dim sum are made and sold on the spot, so you have to wait for quite a while.

Those experienced wealthy families all sent servants to line up, and there were not many people like Censor Yuan who came in person.

Although there were many people, the tempting aroma in the air made people salivate. Thinking that his wife would definitely have a good appetite after smelling the snacks, Censor Yuan waited with great pleasure.

"Grandpa, eat it while it's hot. The hotter it is, the better it tastes."

After waiting for more than an hour, the shop assistant handed over the snacks in a porcelain box and gave specific instructions.

Feeling the cold wind blowing on his face, Censor Yuan quickly put the exquisite porcelain box into his arms and covered it with his old cotton robe.

"Hurry, hurry, go home!"

He got on the carriage in a hurry and rushed home.

When I got home, it was already dark.

Censor Yuan took out the porcelain box he had been holding in his arms and walked towards his bedroom with a smile on his face.

As soon as I walked into the yard, I saw the old maid who served the lady approaching me with an anxious look on her face:

"Old Master, where have you been? We sent people to the Inspection Office to report the news but couldn't find you! The old lady vomited blood and fainted!"

Censor Yuan's head suddenly buzzed, and the porcelain box he had been holding suddenly fell to the ground, making a crisp breaking sound.

The precious snack fell to the ground, but he didn't care at all and ran quickly to the bedroom.

As soon as I entered the room, I saw Old Madam Yuan lying on the bed with her eyes closed, her cheeks red, and her lips gray and cracked.

The old doctor who has been treating Madam Yuan is giving her acupuncture.

Censor Yuan asked quickly:

"Doctor, how is my wife doing?"

The doctor said with a sad face:

"The high fever won't go away. The old lady is old and in poor health. She just got irritated and vomited blood. I'm afraid the situation is not good."

Censor Yuan quickly pleaded with the doctor:

"Doctor, you must save my wife, no matter how much the consultation fee is!"
