"What? Miscarriage?" When Mrs. Xu heard the news, it was already the next morning.
She cried and fussed yesterday, which really consumed a lot of energy. She felt uncomfortable all over and had to rest early.
He didn't even know that such a big thing happened at home.
"These servants at home have been considering me for being ill for a long time. Yun Yao was sent away by the master again. Now that such a big thing happened in the family, they dare not let me know? Doctor, please find someone who is right. Card?"
Hanqiao whispered: "Madam, you have forgotten that the eldest lady is still the housekeeper now. You can just go to the eldest lady directly. There is no need to inform us."
"Bang!" Mrs. Xu grabbed a hand and smashed the item on the ground, and said angrily, "Are all the others dead? You didn't even come to send a message after knowing the news?"
In fact, the people outside are not to blame for this incident.
They did know that Ping Niang was pregnant, but at that time Mrs. Xu was angry because Shen Yunyao was sent away. Who would be willing to bring this bad news to her?
As for Ping Niang's miscarriage, it was already midnight, and most of the servants were already asleep except for the night watchers in each room.
Like Mrs. Xu, they all just got the news this morning. After hearing about it, they hurried over to report the news.
Hanqiao knew that Mrs. Xu was in a bad mood now, but there were some things she had to say, otherwise if she waited for Shen Zhonglei to come to her door, Mrs. Xu would be passive again.
"Madam, please don't be angry. I have one more thing to tell you..."
"If you have something to say, just say it, why are you so long-winded!"
"I don't know if Madam still remembers. Yesterday, when the Master was sending the second girl back to his hometown, Ping Niang came up to persuade Madam. It was a mess at the time, and Madam kicked her when she was angry..."
When Xu heard this, his first reaction was to deny it.
"Who kicked her, but I didn't! As you said, it was a mess at the time. Who knows who kicked her, but it wasn't me anyway!"
After she finished speaking, she came back to her senses, turned to look at Hanqiao, and asked, "What do you mean by that? She said I kicked her in the miscarriage?"
"No, no!" Hanqiao quickly reassured, "The main thing is, isn't this a coincidence? The two things are connected together. I am afraid that the master has something in mind, so I want to talk to the madam first to avoid any trouble. When a gentleman asks, my wife still doesn't know anything, so she is passive."
"I didn't know in the first place!" Mrs. Xu raised her voice, "I didn't ask her to persuade me, and it wasn't me who kicked her. Will she have to blame me for the miscarriage?"
Hanqiao saw that Mrs. Xu's emotions were almost uncontrollable, and she immediately did not dare to say any more.
"After all these years, I thought I had clearly seen that she is an honest person, but I didn't expect that I was mistaken!"
Fortunately, Ms. Xu just vented her dissatisfaction, and finally returned to her senses: "Go to the warehouse and take a look, choose some medicinal materials that she can use, and send them to her so that she can take care of her for the rest of her life. She won't have to come over to serve her recently. .”
Hanqiao brought the medicinal materials to Ping Niang, conveyed all Xu's words, and added a few more words of concern on her own initiative.
As soon as she left, Shen Yunhui came out of the inner room, spat and cursed in the direction Hanqiao left: "You still have the nerve to pretend to be nonchalant and come here to deliver things, and you still have the nerve to say that your aunt will have a good life and will not be used for the time being. I went to serve her, it seems like I have given you a lot of grace, if it weren’t for Madam, my aunt wouldn’t have had a miscarriage!”
"Good girl, stop talking now, be careful to make people listen." Yi Mei hugged Shen Yunhui and whispered, "If the girl says this, won't my aunt feel even more uncomfortable?"
Although something happened at home, Shen Tianshu had promised to go to Renhe Street to meet Mr. and Mrs. Luo, so he packed up and went out.
When Shen Tianshu arrived, the Luo couple and Luo Qiaozhen were already waiting in the flower hall.
"I'm sorry, I'm late." This was the first time Shen Tianshu wore a mask to see the Luo family and Luo Qiaozhen.
Luo Qiaozhen was stunned for a moment when she saw her, and then quietly hid behind Mrs. Luo.
"It seems that Xiao Qiaozhen can't recognize me when I look like this?"
Shen Tianshu wanted to ask someone to get the curtain hat, but he saw Luo Qiaozhen cautiously sticking her head out from behind Mrs. Luo and looking at her.
"You are the lady who treats me!"
Luo Qiaozhen now looks completely different from when Shen Tianshu saw her for the first time.
Although he is still shorter and thinner than other children of the same age, his face is already a little chubby and rosy, which makes him attractive.
"Qiaozhen still remembers me?" Shen Tianshu waved to her.
"I remember my wife's voice." After Qiaozhen recognized who Shen Tianshu was, she immediately lost fear of her and walked quickly to her, even reaching out to touch her mask lightly.
"Qiaozhen is really smart." Shen Tianshu praised her, hugged her, checked her body, and checked her pulse.
"Qiaozhen's body is recovering well. It seems that you have started giving her medicine to replenish her body?"
"Yes, I have started taking medicine." Luo Shizhong said with a grateful face, "Thanks to Mrs. Tong's prescription, Qiaozhen took it for two months and her health improved significantly."
"Qiaozhen is young, and as long as her family members are attentive, it will be easy to make up for it."
"Actually, the reason why I came here today is not only to give Qiaozhen a follow-up consultation." Luo Shizhong seemed a little embarrassed, raised his hand and touched his nose and said, "Actually, I didn't tell Madam Tong before that I was actually from the Jingzhou Luo family. It was just because I had trouble with my family. That’s why I worked hard in Yongzhou alone, and that’s why I didn’t confess to you last time.”
"Since Mr. Luo is so honest, I won't hide it anymore. In fact, I had some suspicions when I came for a follow-up visit.
"Otherwise, I wouldn't dare to prescribe this supplement. Those two medicines are not something ordinary people can buy with money.
"So when Mr. Luo said that he had these two medicines at home, I knew that Mr. Luo should be from the Luo family in Jingzhou.
"It's just that no matter what the family background is, in my eyes, they are all patients. I am only happy for Xiao Qiaozhen, because she is so lucky to have the chance to regain her health."
Luo Shizhong did not expect that Shen Tianshu would guess his identity so early, but she did not put forward more stringent conditions. Instead, she simply collected the consultation fee and left.
Thinking back to the time when he went back to his hometown to ask for medicine, his father looked like he had found a treasure while holding the prescription. Luo Shizhong felt more and more that although Mrs. Tong was young, she had quite a medical demeanor.
"Ms. Tong, if that's the case, Luo shouldn't beat around the bush, just open the skylight and speak frankly." Luo Shizhong said, "I wonder if Mrs. Tong is willing to cooperate with our Luo family?"
