Wu went to see Chen Mingyang that day, and it turned out that Chen Mingyang happened to be talking to Chen Yunzhao. She couldn't help it, so she told Chen Yunzhao about the incident.
As a result, Chen Yunzhao became furious and scolded the couple as having no conscience and wanted to send his own granddaughter to be a concubine.
Wu knew there was no chance, but she didn't dare to quarrel with Chen Yunzhao, so she returned home in despair. She had been thinking of a solution for the past two days.
"Old man, we definitely can't just let this matter go. What a great opportunity. Our Xiuyun has such a good appearance because of the virtues she accumulated in her previous life. She also looks like the second wife of the Wei family. One hundred taels, we can't
Just throw it away." Wu was afraid that Chen Mingyi wouldn't want to, so she would say a few words from time to time.
Chen Mingyi said, "Then what do you think we should do? Third uncle is already angry about this matter, and he must not be able to adopt Xiuyun."
"I'm not willing to adopt him yet." Mrs. Wu curled her lips, "I thought about it, if Xiuyun is adopted into their family, she will become a member of their family. Xiuyun will live a good life in the future. Logically speaking, she should be filial.
Over there, what should we do?"
"Although everyone knows that Xiuyun is our child, who can be sure when it comes to money? It's better not to take risks."
"Even if the third uncle is an elder, he has no reason to care about our family affairs. Xiuyun's biological father, mother, grandfather and grandmother are all here. If we don't make the decision about her marriage, who will?"
Chen Mingyi sighed, "Then what do you think we should do? Our reputation cannot be ruined."
"Let me tell you, it's better to follow the previous plan and adopt the name of the second child and his wife. They have passed away and the remaining Zhong Qian has also separated. What impact will it have?" Wu's abacus calculated carefully.
Even if it has an impact, it only affects Chen Zhongqian.
Chen Mingyi still did not express his position, "Let me think about it carefully."
"You have to hurry up. Manager Wang needs to reply as soon as possible. Otherwise, what will happen if people find out that he looks more like me?"
If possible, Mrs. Wu would like to send Chen Xiuyun directly to the bed of the second master of the Wei family, so that the one hundred taels of silver would be safe, otherwise she would always be afraid of something going wrong.
It was getting late, so the two of them blew out the lamp and went to sleep.
Outside the window, Chen Xiuyun held back tears and returned to her room. She was panicked and afraid. She didn't really want to be someone's concubine, right?
There were no girls in the village who could serve as concubines, but she had heard people say that none of the matrons were easy to mess with. If they didn't have any brains, they would be beaten to death within two years.
What should I do?
…
It was time to go to the market again. Lin Yuxi had to go to Renji Hall for medical treatment today as agreed. She didn't know if Little Du would bring her husband with her.
She sent Xiaoduo to the Chen family to play with Jiao Niang and the others, and followed Chen Zhongqian into the carriage.
Xiaoyu said, "Mom, are you going to buy candied haws for Xiaoduo again today? She has been drooling early in the morning."
Lin Xixi said with a smile, "I don't buy it. I buy it every time. My teeth are broken because of it. I bought her mung bean cake to eat today."
The carriage was swaying along, and Chen Zhongqian whispered, "There are no medicinal materials to sell today, why do you have to go to town?"
"Treat people." Lin Yuehe muttered to herself, "It's a disease that makes it impossible to have a baby."
Chen Zhongqian choked and said, "Don't offend anyone again."
"I'm not stupid." Lin Xixi smiled, approached him and said, "Do you think we are the same in the eyes of others? We have been married for five years and have no children."
Chen Zhongqian's ears turned red, but he was not ready to admit defeat. He looked back at her and said, "If you want to have it, it's not impossible."
Lin Huiyi was defeated. It was wrong to argue in front of the child, let alone with this kind of content, let him reply.
When they arrived in the town, the father and son went to school respectively, while Lin Xixi went to Renji Hall. He didn't know if there would be any male compatriots who would go out of their way to see a doctor today.
As soon as Chen Zhongqian entered the academy gate, he saw Liu Zhaofei hurriedly walking out.
"What are you going to do?"
Liu Zhaofei said quickly, "Someone in the village came to see me. My mother must be sick. I have to go and ask."
Chen Zhongqian stood there and thought for a while, then followed him out. Liu Zhaofei was anxiously asking his fellow countryman, "What's wrong with my mother?"
"She got sick again. I went to see her early in the morning and she was in so much pain that I couldn't get up. I came to tell you first that Liu Quan'er was driving an ox cart to send my aunt to town."
Liu Zhaofei was even more anxious, "Okay, thank you very much. I will go and ask for leave from my husband right now."
He hurriedly went in again, but Chen Zhongqian held him back, "Where does your mother usually go to see a doctor?"
"Yuanantang, my mother has always been there to watch. Liu Xun said so. Isn't he the son-in-law of the shopkeeper of Yuantang? He said the cost of medicine can be cheaper," Liu Zhaofei said.
But in fact, the cost of medicine is not cheap. His mother's disease has always required medicine, and she still has recurring attacks. Every time she has an attack, she is in excruciating pain, and she spends a lot of money.
He is the only one in the family who earns money. He mainly relies on copying books. The money he earns is used to give his wife medicine and pay for his own tuition. He can hardly survive.
Chen Zhongqian opened his mouth, but still didn't say anything, "Go and ask for leave."
"Okay." Liu Zhaofei hurried inside.
He stood there for a while, and when Liu Zhaofei came out again, he said to him, "There is Dr. Li in Renji Hall who is very skilled in medicine. You can take your mother to have a look. Maybe she can cure it. I just suggest that if
The previous doctor also saw things very well, so you don’t have to listen to me."
Liu Zhaofei nodded, "Okay, I understand, thank you very much."
What Chen Zhongqian was thinking was that Lin Hexi happened to be there at this time. He didn't know what kind of disease Liu Zhaofei's mother had. Maybe Lin Hexi could cure it?
But she was afraid that it was a very troublesome disease that would cause trouble for her, and she was also worried that Yuan Antang would think that someone was deliberately stealing business and causing unnecessary trouble, so she was so entangled.
Yue didn't know where he came from, "Hey, are you helping Renjitang get business?"
Chen Zhongqian looked at him and said, "Would you like to pay me a visit and let me make some money?"
"Wouldn't it be better if I give you the money directly?" Yue Ye said with a smile, "Zhong Qian, there will be an exam at the end of next month. How are you preparing? The dean's recruitment of disciples depends on the results this time."
Chen Zhongqian said nonchalantly, "Let nature take its course and do your best."
Yue Ye was furious, how could he wake up this idiot? He quickly went to ask the dean a question. His father believed that good students are those who love asking questions, and Lushan Ming went to ask questions almost every day.
"Look at Lushan Ming, he goes there every day to ask questions."
Chen Zhongqian said, "I don't have any problems. Maybe the dean thinks he has too many problems and is not knowledgeable enough."
When Yue Ye thought about it, this made some sense.
