When they were almost at Mrs. Mei's courtyard, the two stopped talking, put aside their joking expressions, and sent the maid to knock on the door.
Soon, the sound of scattered footsteps was heard.
"Sister-in-law, Guan Zhou, you are finally here."
Qi Yueniang stood in front and took the hand that Gu Miaofeng extended. "How is Second Aunt doing now? Mrs. Liu came to me earlier and told me everything. But then she got busy with things at the mansion and was forced to come only now."
"Oh! I'm getting so anxious, it's getting worse and worse. Yesterday I even came down to walk a few steps, but today I'm completely out of energy and keep shouting no."
After saying this, he led the two of them towards Mrs. Mei's room without caring about etiquette.
As soon as I entered the door, I saw a group of girls in colorful clothes sitting in the outer room. When they saw Qi Yueniang and Song Guanzhou come in, they quickly stood up and greeted them.
Qi Yueniang pulled Gu Miaofeng and asked, "Why are all the sisters here?"
Gu Miaofeng shook her head. "They are so filial and worried about Madam's safety. I am so busy and I really can't take care of them."
When I went to the inner room, there were two concubines sitting by the bed, wiping their tears.
Qi Yueniang took a few quick steps and stepped onto the stepping stone in front of the bed. "Second Aunt, Second Aunt, I'm Yueniang..."
A forty-year-old concubine beside her cried, "Madam, you see, Madam can hear it, but she can't shout out, and she can't open her eyes."
Qi Yueniang leaned over and actually saw Mrs. Mei's eyes moving left and right under her eyelids.
"What does the doctor say?"
Gu Miaofeng also stepped forward, wiping her tears. "I've invited more than ten people, but they said it was just phlegm that was blocking my mind. I've also knelt down to pray to my ancestors and the Bodhisattva. I was feeling better a few days ago, but it's been getting worse over the past two days."
Song Guanzhou frowned, "Sister-in-law Hua, have you invited Doctor Sun?"
Just as he finished speaking, Pei Shuyu came in with hot tea in her hand. "Fourth sister-in-law, mother's illness cannot be delayed any longer. Doctor Sun is just a commoner. I'm afraid—"
Pei Shuyu looked down on Doctor Sun.
Song Guanzhou's expression froze slightly. "Second Aunt is like this. Other doctors are useless. Why not invite him? I was in such a critical condition before, but I survived it."
Pei Shuyu put down the tray, looking worried.
But he turned a deaf ear to Song Guanzhou's words.
"Shuyu heard that my sister-in-law was also unconscious, but wasn't it thanks to the great help of Master Huijue of Longen Temple and the imperial physician that she was saved?"
Pei Shuyu finished speaking, not realizing that she was being rude.
A feeling of grievance rose in his heart. The fourth sister-in-law in front of him, who was talking without any hesitation, was really giving random advice. She was lying on the bed unconscious, and the fourth brother had invited the imperial physician and Master Huijue to come.
But now that his mother has encountered such a disaster, he only asks Doctor Sun to come.
It's really contemptuous of people.
Pei Shuyu wiped her tears and walked past Song Guanzhou, came to Mrs. Mei's bedside, and only sat down after sending away the two concubines.
"Two sisters-in-law, please think of a solution."
Qi Yueniang also heard what Song Guanzhou said and said tactfully, "Second Uncle and Dalang are not at home. You have invited many doctors, but they can't figure out what's going on. Why don't you listen to Guanzhou and invite Doctor Sun—"
"Sister-in-law, mother's illness cannot be delayed any longer."
Pei Shuyu became anxious and interrupted Qi Yueniang, "I'm afraid we need to call the imperial physician."
Song Guanzhou sensed Pei Shuyu's contempt, looked at Mrs. Mei lying unconscious on the bed, swallowed what he was about to say, and sat down on the official hat chair beside him.
Just a vase!
Gu Miaofeng knew her sister-in-law's anxiety and hurriedly held Pei Shuyu down, "Sister-in-law, don't interrupt me when I'm talking."
She turned sideways and bowed to Qi Yueniang, "Sister, you are too anxious and you offended me, sister-in-law."
"It's okay. I'm worried about Second Aunt. Guanzhou was really dangerous back then. Feng'er and Shuyu, you two were watching. Doctor Sun was at Shaohua Garden from beginning to end. His medical skills are superb, and even the old doctors in the Imperial Medical Bureau praise him highly."
Having said this, he paused for a moment before continuing, "As for the imperial physician, Guan Zhou and I will go back later and ask the prince to fetch him."
As soon as she finished speaking, Pei Shuyu immediately stood up and bowed deeply to Qi Yueniang. "Sister-in-law, please tell the Crown Prince and Second Brother to come earlier. I'm afraid that only the Imperial Physician can cure Mother's illness."
Still dislike Doctor Sun.
Song Guanzhou now came to his senses and realized that the reason why he called people from the mansion over was to invite an imperial physician to help Madam Mei.
Put the cart before the horse.
She could understand Pei Shuyu's eagerness to save his mother, but it was really unacceptable for him to be so eager to invite the imperial physician and treat herself and Qi Yueniang as fools.
Unfortunately, it is not good to say much at such a critical moment.
Qi Yueniang didn't dare delay and after giving a few words of advice, she said, "Guan Zhou and I won't delay either. Second Aunt looks very dangerous. Feng'er, you and Sister Shuyu should find a way to give Second Aunt some old ginseng soup to keep her alive. We'll go back and ask Second Brother to find a solution."
Gu Miaofeng and Pei Shuyu cried and nodded repeatedly when they heard this.
"Excuse me, sister-in-law, mother really..., ah!"
Gu Miaofeng personally escorted the two out. When they were about to say goodbye, she held Song Guanzhou's hand, her face full of guilt. "Shuyu was worried about her mother, and her words were inappropriate. I hope my sister-in-law and Guanzhou will forgive me."
Song Guanzhou shook his head. "Don't be polite, Sister Hua. Second Aunt is in danger, so Sister Shuyu is right to be worried."
only--
Song Guanzhou couldn't bear to see Mrs. Mei delayed any longer, so he said to Gu Miaofeng, "It's not that I admire Doctor Sun. Although he lives among the common people, he has his own unique skills in treating difficult and complicated diseases. Sister-in-law, instead of waiting here in vain, why not send someone to invite him?"
Even the imperial physician would need time to come.
Gu Miaofeng nodded quickly, "Okay, Guan Zhou, don't worry, I'll send someone to invite him right away."
On the way back, Qi Yueniang was sulking, "After all, Shuyu was raised by Second Aunt, how could she be such a scoundrel?"
Song Guanzhou shook his head. "She has her own prejudices. We've been here for a while now, but Second Aunt hasn't woken up. This shows that her condition is urgent. At this point, finding a local doctor won't delay matters."
Maybe, we can find the cause of the disease.
Qi Yueniang sighed, "Second Aunt's illness is also strange."
Song Guanzhou frowned, "Recently, there has been no news of anything important happening in their house. The cause of Second Aunt's illness—"
Before she finished speaking, Lanxiang stepped forward and said, "Madam Eldest Young Master, Madam Fourth Young Master, I've asked a few questions and roughly understood that Second Madam's illness...is caused by anger."
what?
Qi Yueniang and Song Guanzhou were both stunned, "Angry?"
After the two looked at each other, Qi Yueniang asked, "Who is so angry that the consequences are so severe?"
Lanxiang glanced at Rendong and whispered, "The eldest daughter of their family."
Pei Shuyu?
Song Guanzhou frowned, "Second Madam is a very open-minded person. How could she be so angry with her daughter?"
"The eldest girl wants to cancel the engagement."
"...Why?"
Now it was Qi Yueniang's turn to be puzzled. Lanxiang shook her head, "It seems that no one knows, but the eldest lady's maids... have all been sent away."
