Chapter 11 Dismantling
  Seeing Liu Ruohe being forced like this, Xu Ningyu felt heartbroken and jumped out immediately.

"Gu Deyin, that century-old ginseng plant belongs to your Gu family. It is only natural for you to ask for it. If Ruohe is a widowed woman, what is your intention in forcing her like this?"

Hearing this, Gu Deyin was about to laugh to death. How could Liu Ruohe, who was stealing from men, still be a wise woman?
  I wonder if her eldest brother can rest in peace underground?

At this time, she raised her eyes and looked at Xu Ningyu and asked, "Husband, if you can't let go of your sister-in-law, can you let go of my wife? Or are you so eager to be a cuckold?"

What kind of person is Eunuch Zhang? Everyone is clear.

Now Xu Ningyu is in a dilemma.

One is my sweetheart, and the other is my wife in name only.

No matter who is injured, he will not look good.

Even Xu Ningkai, the brother-in-law, could only worry but couldn't say anything.

Xu's eyes were dark, and the situation was now difficult to deal with.

Gu Deyin's reaction was beyond her expectations and made it impossible for her plan to move forward.

While he was thinking about how to force Gu Deyin again, the girl guarding the door reported outside.

"Madam, the old lady is here."

Mrs. Xu sat up in shock, why is this old godly woman here?

"Mother-in-law, are you feeling unwell?"

Gu Deyin pretended to care.

"I am dizzy."

In front of her daughter-in-law, Ms. Xu didn't want to show her weak side, so she could only look weak and fell back on the bed with too much energy.

Gu Deyin laughed secretly, it was a mouse meeting a cat.

Of course, she would not expose Xu's disguise at this juncture. She should not be the villain.

Liu Ruohe secretly took a step back, not daring to move forward.

Mrs. Xu had always disliked her, and she didn't want to go up to him to offend her.

"Meet grandma."

Seeing Mrs. Xu coming in supported by her servants, everyone hurriedly saluted.

"Get up."

Mrs. Xu raised her hand with a kind expression, but her sharp eyes looked at Mrs. Xu on the hospital bed.

"Ms. Xu, what's wrong with you? Why did I hear that you were critically ill?"

Mrs. Xu weakly wanted to stand up to greet Mrs. Xu, but she couldn't stand up even after a long time.

Mrs. Xu couldn't stand it any longer and said hurriedly, "Okay, okay. Since you are critically ill, don't make such fussy courtesy. Brother Yu's daughter-in-law, please help your mother-in-law lie down."

Gu Deyin hurriedly responded "Yes" and then helped Mrs. Xu lie back on the bed.

Mrs. Xu sat on the carved round stool brought by the servant and stared at Mr. Xu closely.

Mrs. Xu was made to feel cold sweat on her back. She didn't know the purpose of this old godly woman's visit, so she didn't dare to be careless.

"Mother-in-law, I'm worried. It's all my daughter-in-law's fault..."

Before she could finish her words, she heard Mrs. Xu ask another rude question.

"I heard that you need a hundred years of ginseng to cure your disease?"

Mrs. Xu was speechless for a moment, and the old godly woman seemed to have nothing to do, but if there was any trouble in the house, she would know it faster than anyone else.

hateful!

She was filled with hatred and anger, but there was nothing she could do.

When Mrs. Xu saw this situation, what else didn't she understand?
  This Mrs. Xu is becoming more and more cowardly and disrespectful of face.

"Since you are so seriously ill and the doctor's abilities are limited, I have sent a letter to invite the doctor to come over and treat you..."

"No, no need."

Mrs. Xu hurriedly declined, but she was afraid of arousing suspicion, so she hurriedly said, "I mean, there is no need for the imperial doctor to make this trip..."

"Everyone has been invited, so don't refuse."

Mrs. Xu didn't give her a chance to refuse, and directly asked the imperial doctor to come in.

At this time, not only Xu, but also Xu Ningyu and Liu Ruohe also changed their expressions.

Xu Ningyu wanted to step in to rescue him, but his unsuspecting third brother Xu Ningkai showed up again.

I saw Xu Ningkai saluting Mrs. Xu with a grateful face, "Grandma is still thoughtful. If my mother's illness can be diagnosed and treated by a doctor, she will be cured faster."

"That's right." Mrs. Xu nodded.

The two remaining sons of the Xu family can barely get on the stage, but it is a pity that they are straight men and are not suitable for officialdom.

Naturally, Gu Deyin would not miss this opportunity. She also quickly thanked Mrs. Xu and said with a hopeful look on her face: "My mother-in-law will definitely be saved this time, and she will definitely be able to find peace."

Upon hearing what she said, Mrs. Xu was so angry that she almost twisted her face.

Gu must have done this on purpose, she thought bitterly.

Mrs. Xu glanced at Gu Deyin meaningfully, "You are a very filial child. Your mother-in-law is lucky to have you as her daughter-in-law."

"The old lady is so complimentary," Gu Deyin said with a little shame, "My granddaughter-in-law deserves it."

But she soon felt at ease again. Xu was unkind before, so don't blame her for being unjust behind.

Liu Ruohe on the side heard the praise and suddenly felt jealous.

How could Gu Deyin be so virtuous and capable that Mrs. Xu would endorse her filial piety?

She also wanted to show her concern for Xu's condition, but she knew better what was going on inside.
  At this moment, there was a noise at the door curtain, and the imperial doctor had been invited in.

Seeing this, Mrs. Xu felt anxious and began to wink at Liu Ruohe, asking her to find a way to stop the imperial doctor from diagnosing her pulse.

Liu Ruohe was anxious, but after receiving the look from her mother-in-law, she was at a loss for words for a moment.

Seeing the imperial doctor approaching step by step, she gritted her teeth and kept doing nothing.

Aiming in the direction, she pretended to be weak and fell forward.

And that was exactly the route the imperial physician took to Xu's bed.

Gu Deyin had always paid attention to Liu Ruohe's actions. After all, Xu pretended to be ill and did not dare to act rashly.

Then only Liu Ruohe can save her.

Sure enough, she wanted to crash into the imperial doctor and cause an accident to prevent her from diagnosing the pulse.

Then, in a moment, she rushed forward, and with quick eyes and hands, she supported Liu Ruohe who hit the person.

The imperial doctor was startled and moved several steps to the side.

The female family members in this house were almost going to bump into him. It was so dangerous.

Otherwise, there will be another quarrel when the time comes, which will be quite detrimental to him.

"Sister-in-law, are you okay?"

Gu Deyin asked with seeming concern, but looked at her with a half-smile on his face.

Liu Ruohe was filled with anger and hesitation, but the play still had to go on.

"Just a little dizzy."

"You're dizzy. This can be serious or minor. Let the imperial doctor stop by to diagnose and treat you later."

Liu Ruohe bit her lip and nodded, but her heart was in panic.

Gu Deyin asked the maid to help Liu Ruohe sit down. No one was allowed to leave before the play was finished.

Turning around, she respectfully asked the imperial doctor to come forward and diagnose Xu's pulse.

Mrs. Xu had already given up her seat beside the bed.

After the imperial doctor sat down.

Gu Deyin helped Xu's somewhat stiff arm to the pulse pillow, took the handkerchief handed over by the maid and covered Xu's wrist.

"Mother-in-law, don't be nervous. Imperial doctors are very skilled. Maybe this condition can be improved."

She said this deliberately, seemingly relieved.

But it sounded like a demonic sound in Mrs. Xu's ears. She wanted to retract her hand, but her arm was held firmly by Gu Deyin.

She looked at Gu Deyin dissatisfied, but did not dare to break out on the spot.

Gu Deyin deliberately tried to persuade her again, "Mother-in-law, you can't hide your illness and avoid medical treatment. The government doctor said that this disease is dangerous, so we must pay more attention to it."

Anyway, she just didn't let go and didn't give her a chance to regret it.

Xu's face became even more corrupted. Now it was difficult to get off the tiger, so she had no choice but to bite the bullet and face it.

The imperial doctor looked at the behavior of the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.

He often sees women at home, and he can also see some clues.

After knowing what was going on, he began to diagnose the pulse carefully.

As expected, Mrs. Xu was not sick at all.

Mrs. Xu looked at the imperial doctor and retracted her hand, and promptly asked about Mrs. Xu's condition.

The imperial doctor was invited by Mrs. Xu with her name card, so naturally she would not be biased towards Mrs. Xu.

"Mrs. Xuanning Hou is not seriously ill, but her liver fire is too strong. She can be cured by taking two doses of decoction to reduce the fire."

As soon as these words came out, there were shouts of surprise.
