Chapter 113 Fighting poison with poison
Chapter 113 Fighting Fire with Fire
Xiumei clenched her fists and said, "I really want to go out and punch her a few times! Why did you come here to admit your mistake now?"
"Meimei, do you know what it means to fight fire with fire?" Wei Ruo smiled slyly.
"Miss will use it when preparing medicine, because some medicinal materials are highly toxic and can be neutralized by another medicine with different toxicity." Xiumei replied.
"Today I'll show you another way to fight fire with poison." Wei Ruo told Xiumei, "Go out and tell me that I'm sick. My heart hurts, my head hurts, especially when I hear noisy sounds. I need to call a doctor, otherwise I may not be able to see you tomorrow.
It’s Mrs. Yuan.”
Xiumei immediately complied and opened the door, ignoring Wei Qingwan who was kneeling at the door, and went directly to see Granny Zhang and told her about Wei Ruo's situation.
Naturally, Nanny Zhang had to ask Yun for instructions first.
Mrs. Yun didn't believe it when she heard that Wei Ruo was sick: "She was fine when she was angry with me just now. How can she say she is sick?"
Grandma Zhang had no choice but to reply: "This old slave doesn't know either, but I have heard that people will get acute illnesses if they are too angry. I don't know if this is the case for the eldest lady."
Yun frowned and said, "Then you should hurry up and ask a doctor to see the eldest lady. If you are really sick, don't delay."
"Hey!" Nanny Zhang responded and went out, and not long after, she invited the doctor back.
After learning that a doctor had been hired for Wei Ruo, Wei Qingwan stopped kneeling at Wei Ruo's door and went to Yun's place. She asked with some suspicion: "Mom, sister is really sick?"
Yunshi said: "We will know after the doctor makes a diagnosis."
After waiting for a while, the doctor checked Wei Ruo's pulse and went to report to Yunshi:
"Madam, the eldest lady is suffering from urgent fire attacking the heart and stagnation in the heart. The liver fire is attacking internally and the qi and blood are not smooth due to the irregular heart qi. I will prescribe a prescription for the eldest lady. According to this prescription, take two patches a day for five consecutive days.
During the day, be sure not to get angry any more, and you need to rest quietly, otherwise the condition will worsen and you will be in trouble."
After hearing this, Wei Qingwan felt that Wei Ruo was lying, and said: "This is really what my sister said. My sister has always been in good health, so how could she..."
The doctor's expression became more serious after hearing this: "Miss, I have been practicing medicine for many years and have never had any misdiagnosis. The name of Baoshantang is well-known in Taizhou Prefecture! If you question my words, then I will
There’s nothing to say! You can ask Gao Ming to do it for you!”
I didn't expect the doctor to be so angry. After hearing this, Mrs. Yun said hurriedly: "Doctor, don't be angry. My daughter is just a little surprised and has no intention of questioning your medical skills."
The doctor said: "Madam, in short, the eldest lady's illness will not be fake. If it is not treated properly, the eldest lady's health will only get worse, and I am afraid that she will not be able to leave the house."
Hearing this, Mrs. Yun hurriedly asked Grandma Zhang to go with the doctor to grab medicine and bring it back to Wei Ruo.
Then he asked his eldest maid Cuiping to call Wei Qingwan over.
"Don't go to your sister anymore. You have been avoiding your sister these days. She is ill and needs to rest. If you have anything to do, wait until she recovers."
Yun's words surprised Wei Qingwan. Is Wei Qingruo really sick?
What should we do now? We can't apologize to Wei Qingruo for the time being, and we can't use Wei Qingruo to plead with Mrs. Yuan. Her reputation...
Wei Qingwan was unwilling to give in, but looking at Yun's expression, she knew that there was no room for maneuver in this matter.
Wei Ruo is very important to the Wei family now. Not only is he going to see Mrs. Yuan tomorrow, he will also report to the Seventh Prince and Qian Zhixian about farming in the wasteland south of the city in a few days. If he really cannot afford to fall ill, it will be a big blow to the Wei family.
disadvantage.
Wei Qingwan prepared a full apology and begged for mercy, so Wei Ruo had to swallow it all and hold it back before Wei Ruo could say anything nice about her.
Wei Qingwan originally thought that she just couldn't follow the plan.
But at this time, Nanny Zhang came over to send a message to the Yun family for Wei Ruo: "Madam, the eldest lady said that she felt upset when she thought about today's events. Why do you think she has done something wrong and should be put in solitary confinement? The second lady committed a crime today.
She couldn't understand why she made such a big mistake but received no punishment at all. The more she thought about it, the more her head hurt."
Wei Qingwan's expression froze, and she became more and more certain in her heart: Wei Qingruo must have done it on purpose. She had come up with all the headaches and heartaches to trap her! But now she doesn't know how she let the doctors of Baoshantang lie for her.
.
Yun frowned and looked at Wei Qingwan in front of her. She was also angry with Wanwan today, but later because of Ruo'er's fuss, it directly messed up her mind.
Then I think about the fact that the eldest daughter is now burdened with a heavy burden. If she really wants to be healthy, the Wei family can't explain it to anyone.
"Wanwan, you made several mistakes in Tianqin Garden today. When we stay in Fucheng for the next two days, you are not allowed to step out of the room. You should stay in the room to write and repent!"
"Mother..." Wei Qingwan looked at Yun in disbelief.
This was the first time her mother had punished her to confinement.
Mrs. Yun did not give Wei Qingwan more time to think and react, fearing that she would not be able to withstand her daughter's tears and regret, so she immediately ordered Granny Zhang and Cuiping to take Wei Qingwan to the room.
###
Early the next morning, the carriage sent by Mrs. Yuan to pick up Wei Ruo appeared at the gate of Xie's Villa on time.
Mrs. Yun watched Wei Ruo get in the car and go out with anxiety.
I asked about it in the morning and said that I took some medicine last night and had a bowl of rest. My mood improved a lot and my symptoms were much better today.
Wei Qingwan, who was locked in the room, could not go out. She could only hear the noise outside and knew that Wei wanted to go out.
She knew Wei Qingruo was just faking it! Otherwise, why was it so painful yesterday and how could he still go out today?
But she couldn't do anything about Wei Qingruo. Now her mother believed that Wei Qingruo was really angry, and any more she said would only arouse her mother's suspicion.
What makes Wei Qingwan even more uncomfortable is that if Wei goes to see Mrs. Yuan this time, he doesn't know what he will say to Mrs. Yuan.
Mrs. Yuan's words yesterday had already pushed her into the abyss. She was really afraid that Wei Ruo would say anything else that would make it completely difficult for her to stand up!
Wei Ruo took a carriage to the magistrate's residence.
Today, Mrs. Yuan is not in Tianqin Garden, but in the magistrate's mansion.
The magistrate's mansion was allocated by the imperial court. It was not as grand and gorgeous as Tianqin Garden, but it was still much larger than the principal's mansion.
Wei Ruo, led by the maid, walked through the verandah garden and entered Mrs. Yuan's yard.
Entering the house, in addition to Mrs. Yuan, the man in brocade that Wei Ruo had seen that day, the prefect Yuan, was also present.
It seemed that he was specially waiting for Wei Ruo.
"Miss Wei!" Mr. Yuan stood up, bowed with both hands, and bowed deeply to Wei Ruo.
"Master Yuan, a common woman cannot bear such a great gift!" Wei Ruo said hurriedly.
The other party was a magistrate, and she was a commoner's daughter, so the etiquette of bowing and bowing was really too much.
Chapter completed!
