Rebirth of the little landlady

Chapter 197 The Incomparably Complicated Cause

Yuan Bao didn't stay in her room for long, she ran to see Ni Xiaopang almost immediately, she got too much information from Ni Yuze, she wanted to share it with Ni Xiaopang, and even with Ni Yuze's arrangement , without good communication, the plan will not be implemented smoothly.

Ni Xiaopang has woken up, but he is still very weak. He was still very uncomfortable when he saw Yuan Bao. After all, what happened yesterday greatly stimulated him.

Yuan Bao couldn't take care of much anymore, and she didn't have much time, so she told the news she got from Ni Yuze like a bamboo tube.

Ni Xiaopang couldn't react for a while, and after a while he said, "He even told you all this, no wonder you became his man!" It was full of taste.

Yuan Bao put his hand on his forehead, what time is this, Ni Xiaopang actually still has the heart to think about these things? !
Yuan Bao said seriously, "Little Fatty, I just want to tell you three things. First, although I don't care about power and status, I want to live in peace. You should know that you gave up just to save your life, and now, without the protection of the young master, it is impossible for us to survive, so I have to do everything possible to keep the young master alive, this is the only way out; In terms of physical and ability, it is far from being able to compare with the young master, so relying on him and listening to him is the wisest choice; third, no matter what, the young master has saved us several times, even if we know how to repay us, we should Do your best for him!"

Ni Xiaopang was stunned, but finally nodded.

Yuan Bao didn't force him, but told him, "From now on, I will take care of the young master wholeheartedly. I may not have time to be with you. You should be careful and send me a letter if there is any important matter. Anyone who has a young master Protect you, you'll be fine!"

Ni Xiaopang grabbed Yuan Bao, "Aren't you coming back again? Are you going to stay here? You're not going back to Qing'an County? You don't even want Su Chunsheng anymore?" His expression was terrified.

Yuan Bao smiled, "How could it be? I will naturally go home when Young Master recovers. If you are not in a hurry, you can wait for me to go back together. Of course, the main thing is to listen to Young Master's arrangement!"

Ni Xiaopang showed an unbelievable expression, "My son is in good health? How is that possible?!"

Yuan Bao nodded solemnly, "It's possible! And if everything goes well, it won't take long," he said, "Although we can talk freely now because of the young master's care, but regarding the matter of the young master's body, you have nothing to do but talk to him I, it's better not to mention it to anyone!"

Ni Yuze kept hinting at Yuanbao, mentioning words such as "cleanliness" and "tyrant" that Yuanbao and Ni Xiaopang had said in private, in order to tell Yuanbao that they were all on guard against Ni Yuze's surveillance. It's still a little awkward but Yuan Bao doesn't object to it anymore, after all, if there is no such "close care", they probably wouldn't be alive now, so today she speaks very casually in front of Ni Xiaopang.

Ni Xiaopang was skeptical, Yuan Bao turned and left, she believed that after tonight, Ni Xiaopang would be able to figure out everything, because they actually had no choice.

It's just that Yuan Bao lied to Ni Xiaopang about one thing - even if Ni Yuze died, they would not be in any danger and could get a very high "remuneration", but by this time, Yuan Bao already felt that she could not Give up on Ni Yuze.

After returning to his own room, Yuan Bao fell asleep and was woken up by the maid she ordered when Ni Yuze was having dinner. After washing up, he went straight to Ni Yuze's dining room.

"What's the matter with you? Why is there such a strong smell of medicine on your body?" As soon as Yuan Bao entered the door, Ni Yuze frowned and asked. Smell it all.

Yuan Bao rolled up his sleeves miserably, and raised his two small arms covered with medicinal oil directly in front of Ni Yuze, almost stabbing Ni Yuze's nose, "My arm hurts, so I rubbed it with medicinal wine." Massaging Ni Yuze all night long was indeed a great test for Yuan Bao's body.

Ni Yuze frowned even more tightly, but he neither vomited nor hid. Instead, he stretched out his hand and gently held Yuan Bao's arm.

"If not, I'll take a shower and then wait on you?" Yuan Bao asked tentatively.

"No need." Ni Yuze shook his head immediately.

Yuan Bao's "trickery" succeeded, and then Ni Yuze's dinner ended with the strong smell of medicine, but he still didn't eat anything.

From the second day on, Yuan Bao got worse. She asked for medicinal materials to massage Ni Yuze's feet, and even brought a plaster and put it on Ni Yuze's chest. The excuse was, "If you don't hurt so much at night, I can take it easy." Son."

Ni Yuze actually accepted it.

Next, Yuan Bao demanded that Ni Yuze's medicines from now on, including ginseng soup, be served hot, regardless of whether Ni Yuze drank it at the end or not. As a result, Ni Yuze's inner room wafted with various medicinal fragrances all day long.

In the eyes of outsiders, Ni Yuze has made great concessions because he "loves" Yuanbao too much, but Yuanbao is very dissatisfied——Ni Yuze does not eat anything except ginseng soup and water every day, even if someone tells her that ginseng How rare the soup is, and how many precious medicinal materials are put in it, Yuan Bao still thinks that people eat whole grains, and Ni Yuze can't last long in such a state.

Soon, what Yuan Bao was most worried about happened, Ni Yuze had a fever.

Ni Yuze's cold and lung disease persisted, and his long-term refusal to eat made his body's resistance extremely low. No matter how careful he was, this would always happen to him.Especially now, it is the transition season of autumn and winter, and healthy people are very easy to catch wind and cold.

Other people's fever was just a minor illness, but when Ni Yuze came here, he was in danger of losing his life at any time. For a moment, the hearts of everyone in the yard were in their throats.

Fortunately, Yuanbao's "arrogance" has been rewarded in the past few days. Although Ni Yuze still can't accept taking medicine, his acceptance of external medicine has reached the same level as ordinary people, so all external medicine that can be thought of and used Taking turns to go to battle played a big role. In addition, because of the continuous hot compress with plaster day and night, Ni Yuze's costal inflammation has been greatly improved. Now he can cough softly without any difficulty in expectoration. In terms of disease, it is nothing less than a powerful adjuvant treatment.

After repeated six or seven days, Ni Yuze's body temperature finally returned to normal, but all his personal maids lost a lot of weight, among which Yuanbao was the most obvious.

Jing Ning said, "Yuan Bao, thanks to you this time!" Her voice was choked. Without Yuan Bao, Ni Yuze might not have survived this time. Now, they also understand Yuan Bao's past use of those "weird methods" Intention, but also to see the effect of these methods!
"Oh my god, why didn't we think of this before? How stupid!" Jing Xin is now also sincerely convinced and grateful to Yuan Bao.

Yuan Bao waved his hand, "Sisters have worked hard enough, and have done so many great things. Compared with this, what I have done is really nothing!"

In order to prevent these people from being aware of Ni Yuze's dangerous situation, so as not to cause psychological pressure and psychological hints to Ni Yuze, Yuan Bao asked for some "big events" to happen in Ni's mansion during the few days when Ni Yuze was feverish, so as to attract the attention of "those people" Therefore, under the joint arrangement of the four "Jing", Ni Xiaopang started.

Conclusive evidence, aggressive questioning, Ni Xiaopang went to the old lady repeatedly to ask for an explanation like crazy, and even expanded the "war" directly to Yu's mansion, making a fuss, as if there was no one behind It is absolutely impossible for people to "instigate" and support.

At this time, Ni Yuze's illness and seeing no visitors made many "smart people" immediately think of the cause and effect. In desperation, the Ni Mansion and the Yu Mansion made great concessions one after another.

In addition to a large amount of compensation and appeasement, nearly half of the young masters who participated in the election in the Yu Mansion disappeared, and several of them were severely punished.

The fourth household in the Ni Mansion could not bear the pressure, and quietly separated the family, and moved out from the Ni Mansion. To put it mildly, it was a separation. In fact, it should be "expulsion".

After this incident, the people in Ni and Yu's mansions became honest all of a sudden, and the reason for this was that apart from suffering a big loss, the biggest fear came from the fear of Ni Yuze's recovery.

"Ze'er is most likely doing well!" The old lady leaned halfway on the couch, her eyes slightly squinted, and her face couldn't distinguish between joy and anger. In front of her were her two biological sons.

In Ni Yuze's father's generation, the Ni Mansion has a total of six houses, that is to say, Ni Yuze's grandfather has six grown-up sons, and among these six sons, three of them are the old lady's own, that is, the legitimate sons. One, two, three respectively.

The Eldest Master is Ni Yuze's father, who has passed away. The Second Master is the Master of the Futai, and the Third Master, although he also has a reputation for raising people, has returned after a short period of official career. general affairs.

The three concubine masters who ranked fourth, fifth, and sixth have "separated" and left the Ni Mansion in the past few years after the old master passed away. The last one to leave was the fourth master who had just left a few days ago. This kind of "separation" has a common feature, that is, they failed to take away a penny of Ni's property, and they all left in despair because of various mistakes. The old lady's extraordinary means can be seen from this .

The second master has been an official for many years, not only has the coercion of the superior, but also is very calm, so after hearing what his mother said, he didn't rush to speak, but thought carefully.

The third master was a little impatient, and said viciously, "Impossible! So many doctors have checked the pulse and said that he won't last long without eating and drinking. How could he be fine? It's just a dying struggle that harmed us. I really didn't expect us Ni The family unexpectedly produced such an unworthy descendant!"

"Third!" The old lady suddenly opened her eyes, "Why are you always talking nonsense like this?!"

The third master choked, but the expression on his face was still very angry.

The old lady has already asked the second master softly, "Second, what do you think?"

The second master lowered his eyes, not looking at his mother and younger brother, "Since this is the case, why do you have to act too hastily? It always causes some troubles and makes it difficult for me to move forward."

A few days ago about Ni Xiaopang, although the Ni Mansion pushed the fourth master out, the third master who was the instigator behind him didn't pick it up. Master, it is impossible to be without resentment in my heart.

The third master whispered back, "Who am I for? I left all the money alone? Besides," he glanced at his brother, "You protect that bastard so much, and you haven't seen him do anything to you. Good! Now that he has even lost his holy favor, you really expect him to help you to run for office?! It's just wishful thinking!"

With a "pop", the second master flicked his sleeves and stood up, angrily said to the third master, "Short-sighted, what do you know about being an official?!" He turned around and left.

"Okay!" The old lady scolded angrily, "There are only two brothers left who are your own blood, but you still keep arguing, who else can I count on?!" There was sadness in the thin anger.

The second master and the third master hurriedly apologized to the old lady, persuaded them, and then sat down again.

The old lady's expression softened a little, "Ze'er is too suspicious, the courtyard is so airtight that he can't tell the truth, you should think of a way!"

"My son doesn't want to cause trouble." The second master immediately stated that he still insisted on being alone, and that he was not so much cautious about Ni Yuze's power as he was fearful.

The third master's complexion became ugly again, what he looked down on the most was the second master, the mansion's money was spent unambiguously, but when it fell to the effort, he kept shrinking back, and he was the one to blame People back!

The old lady continued leisurely, "The second child's term will expire next year, right?"

Local officials usually serve a term of three years. Whether they can be re-elected or promoted after the term of office, apart from political achievements, the most important thing is to look at the grace and activities. Generally speaking, it is time for the second master to take action at this time, and this Actions cost what is needed.

Ningnan Mansion is the most affluent mansion in the entire dynasty. People often say that the magistrate here is not changed even for high-ranking Beijing officials. No one can tell how many people are eyeing this position. The master has been re-elected once, so his running really needs contacts and a lot of money.

The second master fell silent, because what the old lady said was his weakness.

The third master sneered and fell into deep thought, but soon he had an idea, "It's very troublesome to guess, we might as well try it, no matter what happens to him, there are always things he can't let go of !"

The second master immediately said, "Don't mess around!"

The third master ignored the second master, but expressed his own ideas. Both the old lady and the second master thought it was feasible, so the mother and son separated and went to prepare separately.

These people are busy, and Yuan Bao, who is worried, is not idle. It is already mid-September, and she has been in Ni Yuze's yard for more than half a month. After the defeat, she had to show her cards to Ni Yuze, because at this time, the only "patient" who could help her was Ni Yuze.

"I want to know a lot of things, but I don't know whether to ask or not. What do you think I should do?" Yuan Bao sat on the bed, looked at Ni Yuze and said.

Ni Yuze coughed twice, "What else are you afraid of?" Although the fever subsided and the chest pain also subsided, he looked much weaker than when Yuan Bao first arrived a few days ago.

"Then I'll ask, don't ask you, just ask sister Ning'er, you can't talk so much!" Yuan Bao waited for Ni Yuze to lie down, blew out the light on the bed, opened the curtains on the bed a little, and let the bed sit The light in the room became extremely dim, "If you are asleep, I won't ask any more." In this way, Yuan Bao's question and Jing Ning's answer were always under Ni Yuze's control.

Ni Yuze's insomnia became more and more serious, one was due to cough, and the other was due to other problems, so Yuan Bao thoughtfully arranged the things he wanted to know in the evening.

Ni Yuze nodded.

Jing Ning sat on the step and asked and answered Yuan Bao through the curtain.

That night, Yuan Bao seemed to have finally found the cause of Ni Yuze's cause, but it was far more complicated than what she had guessed before.

When Ni Yuze was less than two years old, his mother died of illness. His father never remarried in his life, nor did he have a roommate or a concubine. Instead, he devoted all his energy and affection to Ni Yuze, and placed high hopes on Ni Yuze.

Just as Yuan Bao felt, Ni Yuze's father was a very strict person, especially when it came to teaching Ni Yuze, he was so harsh.

However, in the same way, he took care of Ni Yuze very considerately. Ni Yuze has been very meticulous in life since he was a child. He is very particular about food, clothing, housing and transportation, to the point of being picky.

Yuan Bao discovered that Ni Yuze's obsession with cleanliness and perfectionism were actually inherited from his father.

In addition, Ni Yuze's father was in poor health until Ni Yuze died of illness when he was 11 years old.

"So since then, Young Master has hated the smell of medicine, right?" Yuan Bao asked softly.

"This..." Jing Ning was stunned, "Let me think about it!" She is four years older than Ni Yuze. It can be said that she has been by Ni Yuze's side since Ni Yuze was born, and she knows many things about Ni Yuze quite well. The reason for the hesitation is that Ni Yuze used to be in good health and rarely took medicine, and several years had passed, so she couldn't remember clearly.

"Yes." It was Ni Yuze who answered Yuan Bao.

In fact, Ni Yuze didn't have much impression of it. It wasn't until Yuan Bao specifically mentioned it now that he realized that it was indeed after his father passed away that he particularly hated the smell of medicine.

The death of his father made Ni Yuze lose his last support. He left Ni Yuze a lot of wealth and heavy responsibilities. For little Ni Yuze, it was a deep psychological injury and a heavy burden. Mountain.
