Zhe Jinchun

Chapter 96

Thousands of miles away in Dongxuan Pavilion of the Qin Mansion, Mrs. Wu was sitting on a screened couch in the Dongci room, looking at the bronze lamp with a bead in its mouth on the big case, and was in a daze.

Jiang Yu stood beside her with her head bowed, silently making no sound.

Silence and silence hovered in the room for a long time, until the candle on the candlestick exploded with a "snap" sound, and Mrs. Wu's body did not move.

"You..." She opened her mouth hesitantly, but she only said one word before closing her mouth again.A kind of deep sadness and a little panic surged instantly on that usually calm face.

"Yes, ma'am, that's what the doctor said." Jiang Yu completely understood what Mrs. Wu meant, and said with her head bowed.

Her voice was very soft, like a whisper, as if she was afraid of alarming someone.But in fact, that faint voice didn't even flicker the candle on the desk. As soon as the words left his lips, they drifted past Mrs. Wu's ears like light smoke, and slipped away again.

Mrs. Wu's face suddenly looked 20 years older.

"It turns out...it's like this..." She murmured, her voice was low and weak, as if being choked in her throat by the two deep lines around her lips.

After saying these words, she seemed to lose her support all of a sudden, and slid down from the couch softly.

"Ma'am!" Jiang Yu exclaimed, rushed forward to support Mrs. Wu, and turned her head to call for someone.

"Don't...don't call people." Mrs. Wu said these words with difficulty, leaning on her arms to support her body, and stretched out her fingers tremblingly in a certain direction: "Go to the Xici room...the shelf... The third layer... pills..."

She spoke intermittently, and every word she said seemed to be consuming what little life force she had left.At the end, a layer of blue-grey gradually appeared on her face, and there was a sharp and piercing whistling sound in the increasingly rapid breathing, as if it would burst through the throat in the next moment.

The flames of the candles on the lampstand flickered, reflecting the figures of the master and servant on the wall, which also swayed like broken branches in the wind.

Jiang Yu's complexion was pale, cold sweat dripped from the corners of her forehead, but she gritted her teeth and never called anyone in again.She exhausted all her strength to support Mrs. Wu's body, slowly put her flat on the couch, and took a hidden pouch to pillow behind her head, and immediately ran out of the house quickly, and then walked quickly again Turning back, he held a black pill the size of a peach pit in his palm.

Although she was short of breath at this moment, her complexion was calmer than before.After entering the room, she quickly poured a cup of water, melted the pills into the water, and fed it to Mrs. Wu to drink.

Half a quarter of an hour later, the layer of ashes on Mrs. Wu's face finally gradually faded away, and her screaming panting sound also gradually calmed down.

With tears in her eyes, Jiang Ru gently fanned her with her sleeves, and choked with sobs, "Is Madam better? Are you still dizzy?"

Mrs. Wu shook her head feebly, her eyes were slightly closed, and slowly, two old muddy tears condensed from the corners of her eyes.

"My Ah Fang...poor Ah Fang...my poor child..." After a while, she finally began to cry softly.That dull and hoarse voice seemed to be coming from underground, with an indescribable depression.

"Ma'am, take it easy...and let it go..." Jiang Yu's voice trembled slightly, her eyes filled with pity and concern, she held Mrs. Wu's hand tightly and shook: "Although the aunt's heir...but after all, she I also stand still, now that my husband is loving me so much, my wife should also take care of me, with you behind me, my aunt has an extra backing, doesn't she?"

These slightly trembling words made Madam Wu's body move, and immediately after, her eyelids trembled.

"Ma'am, my aunt still needs to rely on you." Jiang Yu said again, staring at Mrs. Wu's face expectantly.

After a few breaths, Mrs. Wu's eyes finally opened gradually, and her slack eyesight gathered together, looking at Jiang Yu.

Jiang Ru hurriedly got closer and persuaded: "Even if Ma'am is not for herself, she should think too much about Auntie. If there is no Qin family and Madam, Auntie will really... be alone .” She said in a sigh, and the look of regret in her eyes became more intense.

When Mrs. Wu heard this, there was a trace of sadness on her ashen face, and after a long time, she finally let out a long sigh.

"You're right." She spoke weakly, as if all her strength had been taken away by this long sigh, and she said every word with great difficulty: "I...can't fall down, I have to live...live , give my Ah Fang... a backer."

"It's right, it's right." Jiang Yu nodded hurriedly.

Madam Wu closed her eyes, and her heavy breathing gradually calmed down.After another moment, she finally supported Jiang Yu's hand, slowly moved her body and sat on the side of the couch.

Jiang Yu hurriedly ran to the side again, took all the hidden bags and placed them around Mrs. Wu so that she could sit still.

After finishing all this, she ran to the Xici room beside her, brought the copper hanging pot, poured boiling warm water into the teacup, blew it a little cooler, and gave Mrs. Wu a drink.

I don't know if it's the pills that have worked, or Jiang Yu's considerate care.After about a quarter of an hour, Mrs. Wu's complexion finally recovered a bit, and she was able to sit still.

"Tell me more about what the doctor said." Once she sat down, she spoke again. Although her voice was still a little trembling, her expression was much calmer.

Hearing this, Jiang Yu's complexion turned slightly pale, and there was a trace of unbearable in her eyes. She was silent for a while, and Fang whispered: "The doctor said that two of the facial oils and makeup powders were mixed with a very small amount of cinnabar and cinnabar. Light powder, if these two medicines are used for a long time, it will cause women... infertility. In addition, the bottles of fragrance dew I sent also have problems. Osmanthus dew is mixed with musk and toads, and hibiscus dew is mixed with borneol And realgar, both are in very small quantities. According to the doctor, if these four ingredients are added with pearl powder and rhinoceros yellow, it will be the formula of Liushen Dan. If a pregnant woman eats Liushen Pill, it will cause... stillbirth , or... give birth to a deformity."

Her low voice seemed to be suppressed by the night, and there was a dull echo in the room.

Madam Wu's face turned blue, and the muscles on her cheeks trembled uncontrollably.

Even after listening to Jiang Yu's report for the second time, she still felt her hands and feet were cold, and her heart was also emitting a chill.

Who on earth would use such a vicious method to harm her daughter? !

A while ago, she took advantage of the large-scale inspection of the West Courtyard to order Jiang Yu to clean up the Dongxuan Pavilion as well.For the convenience of inspection, all of Qin Shifang's belongings were placed in the west chamber, and the door was locked so that no one could go in and look at it.Later, because I was busy dismissing those servants, and it was almost the end of the new year, the door of the west chamber was never opened.

Just a few days ago, Qin Shifang sent a letter saying that he was going back to the house. Mrs. Wu remembered that her daughter's things had not been taken out, so she ordered someone to open the west wing, and was going to move a set of belongings to the back of Dongxuan Pavilion. drunk apricot orchard.
