Chapter 436: Repeating the same old tricks (Second update, asking for guaranteed monthly tickets)
Madam Bo said she would come over during dinner, but as a junior, Shu Shu couldn't really just sit and wait.
Besides, my uncle is still here.
If the elder feels unwell and cannot come out, is it possible that the younger person is not sensible?
Even if Shu Shu was still uncomfortable in her heart, as her niece, Guining should go and have a look.
It's just that I didn't know about the news that my cousin-in-law had a miscarriage, so I might have prepared inappropriate gifts.
Jueluo Shi looked at what Shu Shu brought back, took a box of donkey-hide gelatin and a box of Ganoderma lucidum powder, and said: "With these two things, it just replenishes blood..."
Shu Shu nodded.
If a miscarriage hurts the body, it is necessary to undergo confinement. These nourishing foods are just right for the symptoms. Ganoderma lucidum strengthens the body and donkey-hide gelatin nourishes the blood.
Mr. Jueluo sent the girl next to him to the uncle's house to see if it was convenient to receive guests there.
After a while, the girl came back and told the news about the uncle's house.
The uncle was in good spirits and left the clan leader Chang Shan to have a feast at the uncle's house.
Shu Shu went next door with Brother Jiu.
When they were about to reach the front yard, Shu Shu whispered to Brother Jiu: "Uncle, please don't show anything. The affairs of the older generation are the business of the older generation..."
Brother Jiu asked curiously: "What did my mother-in-law say? Is there any hidden secret about what happened back then?"
It was hard to say much at the moment, so Shu Shu said: "We'll talk about it when we get home."
In the uncle's house, the uncle lives in the front yard, his wife lives in the backyard, and Xizhu lives in the east courtyard.
A family of three is divided into three places, and the water in the well does not interfere with the water in the river.
When we arrived at the main room in the front yard, a kind-faced woman picked up the curtain.
The woman was dressed plainly, with a green gown and a bun on her head. Her face was round and fair, with soft eyebrows. She looked like she was only about forty years old.
When Shu Shu saw her, she said with a sullen expression, "My aunt is not being raised in the Dongkua Courtyard, so why did she come to the front?"
It was none other than Xizhu's biological mother.
To be honest, she is several years older than my uncle, and she is also in her late fifties.
With such thin skin and tender meat, it can be seen that everything is going well and life is going well.
Why?
The woman was stunned.
Shu Shu had not been close to her before, but she was more polite in front of Xi Zhu.
Now there is undisguised disgust.
Her face turned red and she said, "My uncle has not been feeling well these days, so I will serve him at the front."
Shu Shu frowned but didn't say anything.
A slap cannot make a sound.
Since hooking up leads to adultery, there is no one innocent.
What does this woman have to do with her?
She was too lazy to grind her teeth.
When Xi Zhu had to praise his biological mother one day, she would come forward to support Ah Mou.
Without stopping, she took Brother Jiu directly into the main room.
My uncle was sitting on the kang in the east room, and Chang Shan was also sitting cross-legged.
Seeing the two people come in, Chang Shan got off the kang.
My uncle also wants to get up.
Shu Shu hurriedly stepped forward to hold it down, holding uncle's hand, and said: "You're not someone else, uncle, you'd better sit still."
It’s not that she does one thing in front of her and another behind her back.
But...
My uncle doesn't look right.
The whole person looks fatter than last year.
The wrinkles on his face have smoothed out a lot, and he looks several years younger than before.
Not really fat.
More like edema.
The palms of my hands are also cold.
When uncle saw Shu Shu, his eyes were a little wandering. Seeing how close she was, he smiled and said, "Yes, it's not someone else. It's uncle's little Shu Shu who is back."
Shu Shu's heart trembled.
As the uncle opened his mouth, a strong fishy smell hit his face.
She tried not to lose her composure and said with a smile: "If I don't come back, you won't be able to save the red envelope. You will have to get it every year in the future."
Shu Shucai said this as the New Year's red envelopes given by uncle and his wife were all brought by his wife to the West Garden on the Lantern Festival.
The uncle smiled happily and said: "If you don't save, if you don't save, I will give it to Shu Shu ninety-nine..."
"Um!"
Shu Shu said with a smile.
Brother Jiu was nearby and saw that the uncle and nephew were getting close, so he didn't interrupt.
The uncle looked at Brother Jiu and saw that his expression was as usual, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
The uncle asked a few questions about Brother Ninth's errands. Brother Ninth, who was sitting close by, also noticed something was wrong and glanced at Shu Shu.
Shu Shu is closer to Uncle Uncle than he is.
Brother Jiu saw his wife's forbearance and replied with a straight face, then stood up and said: "Uncle and Chang Wei are sitting slowly, I will accompany Fujin to greet my uncle, and then I have some errands to ask my father-in-law for advice.
Take the first step..."
The uncle wanted to get off the kang to see off the guests, but Shu Shu still stopped him.
Shu Shu glanced at his feet, which looked normal and didn't look like they were swollen.
Is it because of this reason that the family didn’t notice it?
According to the old saying, "Men are afraid of wearing shoes and women are afraid of wearing hats", which is a sign of death.
Men are afraid of swollen feet if they are chronically ill.
If your feet are too swollen to put on shoes, you need to prepare a shroud and a coffin.
Women are afraid of swollen faces. If their faces are so swollen that they can't wear a hat, that's also dangerous.
Shu Shu followed Brother Jiu out, her face tense and her eyes filled with anxiety.
She could hide it from her uncle, but she didn't believe she could hide it from his wife.
She whispered to Brother Jiu: "I'm not going to see Ah Mou anymore. Come back first!"
Brother Jiu nodded, turned around and told Xiao Chun, "Just say that I feel a little uncomfortable. I'll go with Fujin first, and then I'll go and pay my respects to Madam."
Xiaochun responded and went.
Brother Jiu and Shu Shu left the uncle's house directly and went back to the next door.
Thinking that my younger brothers are all in the main house, even if they are sensible, they are still young and it would be bad if they were exposed.
I just hope it's a false alarm.
Shu Shu directly took Brother Jiu to the guest room in the front yard, and casually ordered the boy on duty in front of him: "Just tell me that there are foreign guests in front of you, please Ama and Enie come over!"
The boy responded and left.
Brother Jiu held Shu Shu's hand and said nervously, "It's my uncle. What's wrong with it?"
Shu Shu smiled bitterly and said, "I'm not sure, I just don't think it's right."
Ever since she learned about the past, Shu Shu has been very complicated towards her uncle, with contempt and disgust in her heart.
Everyone has kinship and distance. Compared with the uncle and his wife, naturally the uncle will lag behind.
But this is also the elder who has cared for her since childhood.
If it really involves life and death, she will not remain indifferent and watch it with cold eyes.
After a while, Qi Xi and Jueluo came together.
Jueluoshi noticed Shu Shu's strangeness, held her hand and said, "What's wrong?"
Shu Shu took a deep breath and did not speak in a hurry. Instead, she looked at Qi Xi and said, "Amma, have you seen your uncle in the past few days?"
Qi Xi shook his head and said: "I'm busy after the Lantern Festival..."
To put it bluntly, he always goes to the palace for half a day every three days, and the rest of the time is free.
The reason why the brothers haven't seen each other for half a month is because they had a quarrel before the Lantern Festival.
As the news about Brother Ninth's harm to the West Garden became gossip, the news that Brother Ninth took Fujin to Baiwang Mountain also spread vaguely.
The uncle felt uncomfortable at that time and sent someone to call Qi Xi over, hoping to get Aunt Xing and her family back.
Shu Shu and Brother Jiu have not yet opened an account, and the number of people in this household has not yet been transferred, so the uncle wants to change people.
Wanting to get a servant from another family, I exchanged the Xing family with Shu Shu.
The reason why we need to discuss this with Qi Xi is because Madam Bo has already transferred the Xing family to Qi Xi's name.
Qi Xi refused.
The Xing family was originally innocent, but now that their boys are older, they can no longer just hang around in the village.
The brothers broke up unhappy.
Shu Shu said with worry: "Uncle's face is swollen, his hands are clammy, and his mouth has a foul odor. According to the medical books, it's not a good sign..."
Qi Xi's expression changed.
Jueluo's expression also became serious.
Qi Xi was confused when he was concerned, turned around and walked out.
Just in time to meet Mrs. Bo.
Mrs. Bo asked with concern: "What's wrong with Shu Shu? What's wrong with her?"
She said she wanted to go there before, so she waited in the main courtyard, but in the end she only waited for Xiao Chun.
Although Xiao Chun sent a message and was talking about Brother Jiu, Mrs. Bo was still worried and came over to take a look.
Shu Shu came over, supported her uncle and said, "Ah Mou, I'm fine...just..."
She was afraid that she would think too much and scare Mrs. Uncle.
Mrs. Bo saw her hesitating and said, "You saw Aunt Xizhu in the front yard. Do you feel uncomfortable?"
Shu Shu looked stiff.
Human nature is evil...
Shu Shu is willing to see the good points in others, but she doesn't mind using the most malicious assumptions about others.
If my uncle died of illness, the biggest beneficiaries would be their mother and son.
Now she is just a maid and concubine, huddled in the side room of the east courtyard.
If the uncle dies of illness and Xizhu inherits the title, he can ask the concubine of the uncle's house to consecrate his birth mother.
Shu Shu took Madam Bo's hand and told her what she had just discovered when she went to the front yard without intending to hide it.
Mrs. Uncle was stunned when she heard that, and it took a while for the corner of her mouth to turn sarcastic: "No wonder you are so diligent. These days, the waiters in the front yard, regardless of the customs of the year, opened the stove and secretly cooked food for the uncle, such as dried sausages and sauced meats.
These are all my uncle’s favorite foods when he was a child..."
My uncle is in poor health and has always attached great importance to health preservation and eats sparingly.
Shu Shu frowned and said: "Uncle is not a child, how can he not control his greediness?"
Mrs. Bo sneered: "It's not surprising, it's just adding poppy shells. It was this trick seventeen years ago, and it's still the same trick seventeen years later..."
Shu Shu thought of the record in "Compendium of Materia Medica", "Cure Nocturnal Sperm and Long-Term Cough". Could it be that the uncle used poppy shells to get Aunt Xizhu pregnant?
Air-dried sausages and sauced meats are both heavy in oil and salt.
My uncle's kidneys are not in good condition, so it's not surprising that he develops edema.
"They say a long-term illness can cure a disease. Didn't your uncle notice it?"
Shu Shu said in confusion.
The uncle said: "I can't say that he thought that because of the careful service of others, his own health improved..."
Qi Xi understood what was happening in the audience and almost burst into anger. He gritted his teeth and said, "What a despicable person. How can the eldest brother be sorry for their mother and son? How dare you harm the eldest brother?"
Having said that, it was time to walk out.
"stop!"
The uncle grabbed me and said sternly: "Don't go, you can't interfere!"
Qi Xi frowned and said, "Sister-in-law..."
"Don't you see? Your eldest brother has been coaxed. He has been guarding you all these years. You went to testify against the mother of his only son. Maybe he thought you couldn't wait. Killing two birds with one stone for the sake of the title is harmful.
He wants to frame their mother and son..."
Mrs. Bo said with a cold face.
Qi Xi opened his mouth and closed it again.
On the surface of the two brothers, you are good to me and I am good to you, but Qi Xi also knows his brother's heartache.
He is just afraid that if his title changes, Xi Zhu's future will be lost.
Especially after Shu Shu was accused of being married to the prince, every time his uncle spoke to him, he was more flattering and flattering.
There is hope...
