Chapter 11

"God bless! God bless! What a escape!"

Jiang Shouyi ran to the gate of the city panting, with lingering fears in his heart.

He thought he was doomed, took out the brass bell and planned to fight to the death, but he miraculously survived?

What exactly is this copper bell? It is obviously a welded dumbbell, but it can ring when it meets that woman...

Jiang Shouyi vaguely guessed that it should be the magic weapon of the immortal family, but he didn't understand it, so he didn't care, as long as he survived.

He looked at Yan Nu in his arms, this kid broke away from the cloth at some point, sucking the medicine bottle.

"Boy, you're hungry, right? You don't know what medicine it is, so you just stuff it into your mouth..." Jiang Shouyi smiled, but didn't stop it.

He knew that this son was extraordinary, taking medicine was like taking milk... Eh?
"Cough cough cough, woo ah ah!"

Yan Nu swallowed a bottle of medicine, choked and coughed, and burst into tears.

This is not right!Can't this kid eat anything?Why is it suddenly not working?Is this bottle of medicine special?

Jiang Shouyi quickly snatched the medicine bottle away, and it was indeed a bottle of medicine powder that he hadn't eaten before. Could it be that this bottle of medicine is so powerful that monsters can't stand it?
He was in a hurry, and quickly patted Yan Nu on the back, making him cough up the medicine.

However, even though he vomited, Yan Nu's lips turned blue, his whole body twitched, his eyes blurred as if he had been poisoned!

Jiang Shouyi tasted it slightly, and it was indeed pungent, with a metallic smell. Although he didn't know what it was, the medicine was three-point poisonous. How could a baby eat it indiscriminately?
He couldn't help regretting that he didn't stop it immediately. He really never thought that a magical baby that was broken in two and was alive was poisoned by a bottle of medicine?
It was okay to take several bottles of medicine before, so why did something happen now?
The magical ability is invalid?No, the wounds on the head and stomach are still there, if the ability fails, Yan Nu will have to die now!

Jiang Shouyi eagerly took the child to find a doctor, but halfway there, he was helpless again.

He thought of the child's problem, how could the doctor care about it?

Don't talk about detoxification, if the doctor sees that the child's intestines can be taken out, he might faint from fright!
Then the government knew that Yan Nu might even be cremated directly if he was regarded as an evildoer.

"How to do how to do?"

Seeing Yan Nu twitching and whimpering in pain, Jiang Shouyi was extremely anxious.

But he is still lucky, after all Yan Nu is too miraculous, maybe he can survive it.

He went to buy some steamed cakes first, and fed them to the child. Xiao Yannu moved his mouth slightly, and ate them all.

This made Jiang Shouyi heave a sigh of relief: that's right, he's still a freak!

Just be a freak!

The baby couldn't eat dry food, but Yan Nu just ate it. For the past two days, he survived by eating the steamed cakes on Chen Hu's body, which showed that he was still miraculous.

"So this poison should be over, over it..." Jiang Shouyi hugged the child and nestled in the alley, hoping for God's blessing.

Then every once in a while, I would feed Yan Nu some steamed pancakes, and the remaining pancakes would soon be gone.

However, after an hour passed, the signs of Yannu's poisoning did not improve, but became more and more serious!

His whole body was swollen and blue, as if toxins had spread all over his body.

Jiang Shouyi didn't know what to do. It happened that a wealthy family was giving out porridge, so he hurried to get a bowl for Yan Nu to drink.

But this time something went wrong again, Yannu couldn't drink anymore, the rice porridge was all clogged in his throat, and he was so scared that he patted and digged desperately, so that Yannu could breathe freely again.

"You can eat steamed cakes, but you can't drink rice porridge? What's wrong! Yan Nu! Yan Nu!" Jiang Shouyi sobbed, extremely helpless.

He could no longer bear the pain of his grandson dying at his own hands, and he now felt that he was an evil star.

Could it be that even such a miraculous god-given baby is going to be raised to death by himself?

Fortunately, Jiang Shouyi still had money, so he hurriedly bought the same steamed cake as before, and as expected, he ate it.

He scratched his head desperately, Yan Nu's situation was too weird, he couldn't figure it out!

But he also realized that Yan Nu could eat what he had eaten before.

But since when did Yannu not be able to digest other food?

"Could it be...Xue'er?"

Jiang Shouyi slowly sorted out his thoughts, and suddenly realized that everything happened after sending Xue'er away.

Steamed cakes can be eaten, but rice porridge cannot be fed.It's been two hours, and the poison I took by mistake is still unresolved.

"God gave you two births, so you can't be separated?"

"Once separated, the child's magic...will disappear? Or...stagnation?"

He didn't expect that the pair of children he picked up had such a relationship.

But it is reasonable to think about it. When they were discovered, they were a pair. It should be not simple, but the girl looks too normal.

"What should I do..." Jiang Shouyi clenched his lips. The man had already been sent out, and the lady might have given birth.

If he goes back to beg now, he is looking for death, and he can't support him.

"No... as long as you get through the poison this time, and meet... I just need to bring the child to meet... From now on, Yan Nu will grow up normally, isn't it good?"

Jiang Shouyi's heart broke, and he immediately ran back to the back door of the Zhu Mansion!

Regardless of whether it is useful or not, let's treat a dead horse as a living horse doctor!Even if he comes back, he will definitely die!
It was getting late at this moment, he knocked on the back door of Zhu's mansion, and a new concierge came out, a little young, but still looked arrogant.

He said humbly: "I beg to see Miss Xiangyun."

"What kind of bastard are you!" Seeing his humbleness, the concierge sneered.

"There is a big happy event in the mansion, Miss Xiangyun is busy!"

Jiang Shouyi directly fooled: "Miss Xiangyun sent this old man to come..."

He was vague and didn't mention too much, so as not to spoil the matter of Xiangyun and her wife.

If something bad happens, it doesn't matter if he dies, but the good life of the noble daughter of the Xue'er family is gone.

Jiang Shouyi understood very well, knowing that he had a secret with those two people, so he went and returned this time, so he didn't need to say anything at all, as long as he came, the other party would definitely meet him... even if it meant killing him.

"Huh? Wait! If Madam scolds you, I want you to look good!" Although the concierge is arrogant, but communication is his job, and he doesn't dare to really neglect it.

Jiang Shouyi squatted outside the door and waited, watching Yan Nu'er get weaker and weaker, twitching unconsciously, burning with anxiety.

He was completely betting his life, the nobleman of the Zhu family might not let him see the child again.

If Xue'er is 'born', it is probably being nursed by a nanny now, or passed on by a large group of elders, or it may be in the hands of a noble person.

He is a lowly man, he ran back suddenly and said he wanted to see Xue'er, Xiang Yun hadn't chopped himself off with a sword?
In fact, what he thought was right, Xiangyun heard the report from his servants, and wished he could kill him immediately.

"This old man, even if he spared his life, he dares to come back?"

"Fortunately, I found out first, if I report to Da Furen first... I will be targeted..."

Although Xiangyun was furious, he didn't dare to show it, and stood silently at the side of the flower hall.

So at this moment, a group of elders gathered in the hall, one of them was an old woman, holding Xue'er in her arms, rubbing her fingers carefully.

This is looking for fairy bones.

The old woman is the wife of the head of the family and the mother of the eldest son. Now that the head of the house is in court and the son is in a wild state, she is the master of this family.If the old lady doesn't leave, who would dare to move?

"Mother! What's the matter? Does my son have a fairy bone?" Suddenly, a person broke into the flower hall.

He is wearing a crane cloak with crimson feathers and white fox fur. His skin is fair, his face is covered with gold powder, his hair is unkempt, and he is exactly Zhu Xiazhi.

"Xiazhi, what did you do? You don't even know it's a girl?" A beautiful bearded old man stroked his beard and said.

Zhu Xiazhi's eyes were blurred, her body was steaming hot, and her whole body seemed to be drunk: "Qin'er gave birth suddenly, I rushed here... just now I was taking medicine with my brothers..."

He is more than 30 years old, and he is still unrestrained, even more free and easy than when he was young.

The third uncle couldn't help scolding: "You have two children, so you can't be more stable? How will you manage this family in the future?"

Zhu Xiazhi chuckled: "There will be another day to care about in the future, and today is not over, so why not talk about the future!"

Seeing that he was speechless, the third uncle was so angry that he couldn't speak!
On the other hand, Zhu Xiazhi's mother scolded, "Presumptuous! Xiazhi, you are so rude!"

Seeing his mother getting angry, Zhu Xiazhi hastily and honestly bowed down to admit his mistake: "My son knows his mistake."

The old lady said with a sullen face: "Aren't you going to plead guilty to your third uncle?"

Zhu Xiazhi pursed his lips and said, "My nephew Zhuo Luo is unruly and has such a temperament, please forgive me, third uncle."

What an outstanding and uninhibited person!The third uncle was depressed and couldn't help worrying about the future of the Zhu family.

But who knows that the head of the family has only two sons, the youngest son Zhu Yuanzhi has gone to the mountains to practice Taoism, and he has already "cut the world of mortals", and the eldest son Zhu Xiazhi has no immortal bones, so he must be the head of the family in the future.

"Well, take a good look at your daughter... she looks really good." The old lady had already touched the bones, shook her head slightly, and handed Xue'er to Zhu Xiazhi.

She didn't say it clearly, but everyone knows that there is no fairy bone.

Zhu Xiazhi looked at his daughter, beaming with joy: "Hey! So what if you don't have fairy bones? The little girl's skin is as smooth as cream, and her skin is as smooth as jade. She has the shadow of a beautiful country just after she was born. Maybe she will become a queen in the future!"

The old lady smiled lightly, this daughter is indeed born well, the queen is a bit far away, but it is very possible to marry a first-class family!
So she glanced at Zhu Xiazhi's wife who was respectful and silent, gave a slight warning, and left gracefully.

"Mother, go slowly!" Zhu Xia staggered and sent her off.

When the old lady walked to the door, she suddenly turned around and reminded: "Xiazhi, now that the child is born, you have to take some time to go to the yamen. The imperial court appointed you the county magistrate of Anqiu, so you should take care..."

"It's snowing too much this year, you can't let your staff do everything if you're in charge of the people all over the place."

Zhu Xiazhi was looking down at his beautiful daughter who was teasing him, why did he hear that the snow was falling too hard?Saran smiled.

He held up his daughter like a jade baby: "I can't bear to say goodbye to the beauty, how can I look in the snow? Don't be surprised that the spring is late, it is still better than the cold!"

"Yes! My daughter is called Zhu Yanxue!"

The third uncle gasped... My precious daughter is so beautiful, how can I have the heart to see the heavy snow outside?Don't be surprised that spring comes late, it's better than not having enough cold weather!

The third uncle of the Zhu family was numb after listening to the poem he recited out of his mouth. Although he was used to his unruly manner, this time it was a bit too much.

This year's heavy snow, filled the six northern states!In Qingzhou alone, [-] people died of hunger, cold and freezing!

In Donglai County, there are refugees pretending to be ghosts and rebelling in the name of immortals. The situation in Anqiu is slightly better, but because of this, a large number of refugees have gathered... and outside many other cities, frozen corpses have blocked the gates.

As a local parent official, do you feel that this cold snap is not enough fun?What do you say 'still wins the unfinished cold'?
The third uncle had a sullen face, and was about to be harsh, but the old lady spoke first.

"If you tell me to go, you can go! The prefect of Langya is very old, you have taken care of him for [-] years, and the master is the prince Zhan, in the future... In short, you have to start preparing. How can you do it if you haven't been to the yamen once?"

The incomplete meaning of what the old lady said was that when the crown prince ascended the throne, Zhu Xiazhi would be able to become the prefect of Langya.

Seeing that the topic had gotten so far, the third uncle could only swallow back what he was going to ask.

This is the heir of the Zhu family. He can be the prefect of Langya without going to the Yamen once...

And it was basically determined a few years ago, unless the one who ascended the throne was not the crown prince.

How can you talk to him about the duties of the county magistrate in this situation?

"Mother, my son knows, I'll go to the yamen immediately after I have a look at Qin'er!" Zhu Xiazhi responded quickly and respectfully.

He knew his mother too well, and he didn't care about his dissoluteness. As long as he respected and obeyed his mother at critical moments, and let her know that he respected her, as long as her words mattered, everything would be fine.

Sure enough, the old lady nodded with satisfaction: "Okay, let's not disturb them."

After all, she left directly, how could many elders stay, the third uncle had no choice but to go with him.

From the beginning to the end, they didn't intend to go into the back room to take a look at Leqin who was still performing on the bed.

Leqin was very worried about being found out, but there was no doubt that it was all in vain.

In the whole house, not many people cared about her at all. Except for servants, only Zhu Xiazhi would come to this courtyard on weekdays.

"Husband, old madam, are they all gone?"

"Let's go, but I have to go to the Yamen, so I can only come back later to accompany you."

Leqin breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that the most difficult level had passed.

"It's okay, business is important. Xue'er has her own nanny to take care of her, and I also have Xiangyun..."

Speaking of this, Leqin was startled, she said she slipped!She even said the name given by the old man.

No matter what the child's name was before, but now she is the noble daughter of the Zhu family, she must have a new name.

However, Zhu Xiazhi smiled and said, "Oh? Qin'er's ears are so good, can you hear it? That's right...Zhu Yanxue, Xue'er, you think this name is good too, don't you?"

"Husband got it, so it's great." Leqin smiled. It turned out that there was also a word "Xue" in her name, which was really fate.

The two didn't stay warm for long, Zhu Xiazhi felt that the potency of the medicine had worn off, so he changed his clothes listlessly and went to the yamen.

It wasn't until this time that Xiang Yun finally had the chance to say: "The old man is here again, so I'm going to kill him now!"

Leqin was already lying down with nothing to do, but when she heard this, she sat up anxiously and was extremely furious.

"Why is he here again, can't he try to control me?" Leqin was afraid of this situation, and spared the old man's life, but if things got leaked in the end, it would be better to silence him from the beginning.

She immediately wanted to get out of bed, but she had to lie down again because she thought that there was still a nurse in the outside room.

"Bring him in!"

Xiang Yun said: "Bring it here? Isn't it good? Let the slaves get rid of him."

Leqin shook her head: "It's okay, he's just an old man, and he turned around and said that I arranged for him to hold a baby boy to celebrate, but it's a pity that he came late."

"I need to know who he has been in contact with again, this old man will not come back for no reason!"

Not long after, Xiangyun led Jiang Shouyi over.

While still outside the door, Jiang Shouyi heard Xue'er crying.What is surprising is that Yan Nu's convulsions stopped in an instant, and he opened his eyes again with a babble.

"Just hear the cry? What's the point?" Jiang Shouyi murmured in his heart.

But everything finally went as he wished, Yan Nu's poison was cured!Get better!
It's really because of Cher!Just like this, the poison could not be detoxified for more than two hours, and it was fine immediately.

But he has come, it is not so easy to leave, Xiangyun brought him into the hall.

This is Leqin's sleeping quarters. Even if Jiang Shouyi came, he could only kneel in the living room outside the warm tent.

"Xue'er woke up again, you can carry her down and feed her first, I don't care about you here." This is Leqin talking to the nanny.

Jiang Shouyi heard the nurse coming out of the warm tent and Xue'er crying, but he didn't dare to look up.

"I said, don't come back!" At this moment, Leqin walked out of the cashier and looked down at him coldly.

Jiang Shouyi sighed inwardly, kowtowed and said, "It's the villain's fault, but this child has been poisoned, and the villain really has nothing to do."

"Poisoned?" Leqin glimpsed that Yan Nu's body was indeed purple and swollen, but the symptoms were very mild and almost subsided.

"It's the medicine bottle that Cheng Tianhu was carrying. My grandson accidentally ate it by mistake." Jiang Shouyi took out the medicine bottle.

Xiang Yun stepped forward to take it, and frowned when she smelled it lightly: "Wu Shi San?"

Leqin was stunned: "Such a small child, if he doesn't have a fairy bone, he can't even touch it!"

Jiang Shouyi didn't know what a fairy bone was, so he kept on saying, "The villain didn't notice for a while, and Yan Nu got a little bit... The villain knew he shouldn't come back, but there was really no other way..."

Xiang Yun said angrily: "Just find a doctor! Let you go far away, and you dare to come back. If you are targeted by someone with a heart in the mansion... why don't I kill you now!"

But Leqin held Xiangyun down, and said with a little guilt: "Ah...it was my omission, I forgot to give you some money..."

It was only then that she remembered that he was here to sell the baby, and the old man was a disaster victim, probably already penniless, so she took his granddaughter without giving him a penny or a grain of food!
She only said to spare his life and let him go far away, but how far can he go?Might as well just kill him.

And thinking of this, Leqin is also relieved... If you want to blackmail people, it's just angry words.

With the old man's 1 courage, he would not dare to come back and blackmail people just because he has mastered this secret.

If you think about it carefully, anyone with a normal mind would know that coming back is a way to die.

But this old man came back without hesitation, only because his grandson was poisoned by mistake and there was nothing he could do, so he came back to ask for help. He wanted to exchange his life for his grandson's life, but he was also a loving person who was not afraid of death.

This is very important, because it means that even for Xue'er, Jiang Shouyi will swear to guard this secret to the death.

"Xiang Yun, give him five hundred guan."

"Listen, Jiang Shouyi, this is the last time, I don't want to see you again."

"From now on, her name is Zhu Yanxue, and she is my daughter!"
