Mrs. Dong's expression changed when she heard this, and she quickly covered his mouth. She looked around and saw that everyone in the room had gone out to see off Li Zian and Mrs. Tong. Then she breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I think the master is really sick and confused."
Now, everyone looks like the fairy in your heart!"
Mr. Shen insisted: "Isn't it Yaxuan who came just now? She even touched my hand!
"No matter how confused I am, no matter how confused I am about recognizing others, I will never misidentify her."
Mrs. Dong stayed with Mr. Shen every day and knew his situation very well. Seeing that he didn't seem to be talking nonsense, she couldn't help but frown and recall.
Although Lady Tong just now was wearing a mask, her eyes seemed to be somewhat similar to Liu Yaxuan's.
Thinking of this, Mrs. Dong couldn't help but snorted coldly.
"Master, you really came to Wuchang Mansion at the right time. You are thinking about the person in your dreams day and night everywhere."
Outside, after everyone in the Shen family sent Li Zian and Shen Tianshu away, Mrs. Shen hurriedly ordered: "Come here, go get some medicine and prepare a medicinal bath when you come back.
"Amitabha, with the blessings of Bodhisattvas, as long as it can save my son from suffering, I will go to the Buddha to light a sea lantern to pray for Lady Tong!"
The servants quickly grabbed the medicine. Mrs. Shen personally watched the people cook the medicine package and helped Mr. Shen get up to take a medicinal bath.
"Be gentle with your hands and feet!" Old Mrs. Shen was worried and couldn't go in, so she simply asked someone to bring a chair over and put it outside the bathroom door.
She sat there by herself, talking to Mr. Shen and waiting for him to come out.
"Boss, is the water hot?"
"Mom, don't worry, it's not hot."
As soon as she heard that it was not hot, Mrs. Shen hurriedly ordered: "Hurry up and prepare hot water. When the water gets cold, add it as soon as possible.
"Mrs. Tong has taught you not to catch cold."
The servants rushed to boil water and fetch it.
After a while, Mrs. Shen asked again: "Boss, how do you feel when you soak your legs and feet?"
“It feels warm and quite comfortable.”
"As long as it's comfortable, it's good as long as it's comfortable!"
Shen Zhonglei watched and listened, with an envious look on his face.
Ever since they were little, Mrs. Shen has been strict with him and the third child. She only shows such a loving motherly side when facing the eldest child.
Although I understand in my heart that my eldest brother has been weak and unable to walk since he was a child, it is normal for his mother to be more partial to him, and urging him to make progress is also a sign of love and care for himself.
But every time he sees his mother's kindness to his eldest brother without asking for anything in return, he still feels a little sour in his heart.
In his memory, his mother would show a little bit of love towards him only when his studies were praised by his husband, when he wrote a good article, when he was admitted as a Jinshi, or when he made some outstanding political achievements.
Shen Zhonglei was thinking wildly when he suddenly heard the sound of water coming out. He looked up and saw that it was already time to soak.
Several servants worked together to lift Mr. Shen out of the bathtub, rinsed the liquid on his body, dried the water, changed into clothes, and then placed him back on the bed.
Old Mrs. Shen hurriedly followed and asked: "Boss, how do you feel?"
Mr. Shen was already a little drowsy from being soaked in the water. Hearing Mrs. Shen's question, he managed to cheer up and said: "I feel warm from my waist to my feet, but it's not the same as before when I just soaked in hot water."
It feels different and feels much better after soaking.
“Before, my legs not only hurt, but I also felt like insects and ants were crawling over me, but now I feel much relieved.
"My waist seems to be much looser and not as stiff as before."
"Oh, the Bodhisattva has really appeared! This lady Tong is so amazing!" Old Mrs. Shen said excitedly, "As long as it is good for your health, we will take a bath every day from now on!"
Mr. Dong finally showed a smile and turned to ask Shen Zhonglei: "Second brother, I wonder where this Lady Tong came from. She seems to be so young, but she is so capable?"
"If you ask me about the origin of Lady Tong, I would be really stumped." Shen Zhonglei shook his head and said, "I only know that she is the apprentice of the former Princess Gaoyang. It seems that although she is young, she is extremely talented and has acquired the true inheritance.
"
"The reason why I met Mrs. Tong in the first place was actually by accident.
“At that time, a classmate and friend of mine returned to Beijing to report for work, but unfortunately his mother fell seriously ill during the trip and could not afford it.
"He tried many methods to seek medical advice but failed. When he found out that I was working in Yongzhou Prefecture, he came to ask for help.
"But at that time, other doctors in Yongzhou Prefecture were helpless and had to put up a notice offering a reward for good doctors. In the end, it was Lady Tong who posted the notice.
"It's shameful to say that we almost missed her when we saw her as a young lady who didn't know where she was from or where she came from.
"In the end, Madam Tong cured a 70-year-old woman who thought she was pregnant on the spot. Only then did she realize that we were blind.
"Sure enough, after inviting Mrs. Tong into the house, she quickly regained her youth. This is considered acquaintance."
"So this Lady Tong was in Yongzhou Mansion? Could it be that she came to Wuchang Mansion with her second brother because she was protected by her second brother?"
"Sister-in-law, I don't dare to say that." Shen Zhonglei waved his hands repeatedly, "Mrs. Tong has superb medical skills, so there is no need for me to protect you.
"Although Madam Tong came to Wuchang Mansion at the same time as me, she was invited by Prince Rui's Mansion to treat Prince Rui."
Old Mrs. Shen interjected: "Thanks to the fact that the second son had some connection with Mrs. Tong, otherwise, if he is now in Prince Rui's Mansion, we would be able to invite him anywhere.
"Besides, as long as someone has the ability to treat the boss, the origin has nothing to do with us."
"The old lady is absolutely right." Ms. Dong smiled and said nothing more.
Shen Zhonglei looked ashamed and said: "Now that I think about it, not only did I not protect Lady Tong, I even received a lot of favors from others.
"When I was in Yongzhou Prefecture, many people in the slums of the city suffered from vomiting and diarrhea. Everyone thought it was an outbreak of epidemic disease.
"The Crown Prince was in the city at that time. If it was really an epidemic and something happened, I, as an official, would probably be done with it.
"It was Lady Tong who stepped forward and went deep into the slums to diagnose the disease for those people and alleviate the crisis.
"Later, when I first came to Wuchang Prefecture and took office, I encountered a very difficult case, involving the old man of the Han family, and he almost had someone hit a pillar in the lobby of the county government and seek death.
"Later, it was thanks to the help of the Crown Prince and Lady Tong that I was able to successfully solve the case, so I didn't fall into the embarrassing predicament of being embarrassed when I first arrived."
"In this way, Mrs. Tong is really a great benefactor to our Shen family." Old Mrs. Shen said with a grateful face, "When she comes for a follow-up visit next time, she must be more respectful and treat her well."
