The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law (1)
The next morning, Zhu Qixuan got up early, and his sons got used to getting up early and got up together.
After arriving at the border, the Zheng family had no slaves and maids, so they had to do everything themselves. Zhu Qixuan did not spoiled his sons, and he had to wear clothes and shoes by themselves since he was a child.
Zheng Dalang dressed neatly and helped the youngest Zheng Sanlang dress.
The maid brought a hot breakfast, melted rice porridge, four-color pasta and a few side dishes. Among them was a plate of beef.
Zheng Dalang and Zheng Erlang like to eat beef the most. However, slaughtering plowing oxen is not allowed in the border gate. Occasionally, some beef is sold only after some "falling to death". Therefore, the price of beef is quite high.
Zheng Dalang and Zheng Erlang have very few opportunities to eat beef.
Today, Zheng Dalang and Zheng Erlang ate very happily. Zheng Sanlang also ate a few slices, accompanied by hot porridge and steamed buns, with relish.
"Mom, you can eat it too." Zheng Dalang picked up a piece of beef and put it into Zhu Qixuan's bowl.
Zhu Qixuan pursed her lips and smiled, and slowly ate the beef.
Speaking of which, she hasn't eaten beef for more than half a year.
It's really delicious.
After breakfast, Zhu Qixuan led his sons to meet Cheng Jinrong.
"He Qi got up early and went to the military camp." Cheng Jinrong smiled and said, "You are not an outsider, so I didn't disturb you."
He Qi should have returned to the military camp when he came to Japan yesterday. For the sake of Zheng Dalang's brothers, he stayed at home for one more day. Today, he rode away on the fifth day of today.
Zhu Qixuan was grateful and whispered: "I have troubled my cousin's wife."
Cheng Jinrong smiled and said angrily: "Why do you say this again? It will take a long time to go back to the future. You have to say it to me every day."
Zhu Qixuan's long-lost playfulness emerged again: "How can you say it once a day? It's better to say three times a day!"
Cheng Jinrong and Zhu Qixuan looked at each other and smiled.
Everything is in the process of not speaking, it’s fine not to say it.
Cheng Jinrong personally led Zheng Dalang and Zheng Erlang into the study and said to Mr. Xixi: "From today on two more students, thank you for your hard work."
Mr. Xixi immediately smiled and said, "This is my duty, so why not have any hard work. Doctor Cheng said this to me, which made me ashamed."
Cheng Jinrong is a first-rate Duke's wife. However, everyone was used to calling him Divine Doctor Cheng, and even the maids and soldiers in the mansion called him Divine Doctor Cheng.
Cheng Jinrong also instructed Zheng Dalang and Zheng Erlang to read carefully and listen to the teacher's words, so he went to the clinic with Zhu Qixuan.
...
Today is the fourth day of the New Year.
There are only a lot more patients queuing outside the Cheng clinic to see the doctor than usual.
The weather was cold, and the people queuing in line were trembling. Soon, the guy in the clinic carried two large buckets of ginger soup. The people queuing in line could each drink a bowl to warm up their bodies.
As soon as Cheng Jinrong showed up, the people immediately looked over with eager eyes and kept shouting "Doctor Cheng".
Cheng Jinrong nodded to everyone with a smile.
This was the first time Zhu Qixuan witnessed such a scene and couldn't help but exclaim: "I have heard of my cousin's name as a miracle doctor for a long time, and I only saw it today."
Cheng Jinrong blinked at Zhu Qixuan: "You are just a first-timer. You will gradually get used to it in the future."
Zhu Qixuan burst into laughter.
While she smiled, her eyebrows and eyes stretched out, she had the agility and charm of the past.
The first thing Cheng Jinrong did when he entered the clinic was to go to see Mrs. Hou Jinning.
Zheng Qinghuai was standing beside the bed, his eyes were covered with blood. Zhu Qixuan felt distressed when he saw his husband's appearance, and asked in a low voice: "You must have not been asleep either!"
Zheng Qinghuai's eyes showed a hint of helplessness and said softly: "I can't rest assured that my mother looks like this. I stayed until midnight and slept on the small couch beside my mother's bed for a while. As soon as I fell asleep, I heard my mother screaming. I thought it was because of a nightmare and I couldn't sleep. So I got up and sat on the bed to guard my mother. My mother held my hand before she could barely fall asleep."
How mighty and proud Mrs. Jinning was in the past? After arriving at the border, there were a bunch of sons, daughters-in-law and tribe members, and she would occasionally shake the majesty of her family.
Now the wife of Jinning Hou was in a state of being unable to move or speak, and lay straight on the bed, and had to serve her when she was convenient for food and water.
It is inevitable that Mrs. Jinning Hou was panicked and helpless and fearful. However, in this way, she suffered to take care of her son who served her.
Zhu Qixuan felt sorry for her husband, but she was not convenient to blame her mother-in-law. She whispered: "I'll take care of her mother-in-law. Go and sleep for two hours."
Cheng Jinrong took over the conversation: "What Qi Xuan said is that people suffering from stroke need people to take care of themselves all year round. You have to take good care of yourself first. If you are exhausted, who will take care of your mother?"
The Zheng family is a criminal minister and cannot easily leave the exile place. The wife of the Marquis of Jinning was seriously ill and had to come. Zheng Qinghuai and his wife came to take care of them. Naturally, the rest of the Zheng family did not have such an opportunity.
Zheng Qinghuai was really tired and nodded in response.
He got up and was about to leave, but suddenly his sleeve was pulled. When he turned his head, he saw Mrs. Jinning tightly pulling his sleeve, his eyes showing a look of panic, his lips moved, and he squeezed out two words: "Don't leave."
Don't leave her here alone.
Zheng Qinghuai felt soft and he was about to respond.
Cheng Jinrong frowned slightly and said lightly: "Since you are staying in the clinic for treatment, you must listen to my instructions. Zheng Qinghuai, go and rest first. It is enough to have Qi Xuan accompany you here."
Cheng Jinrong's voice was not loud, but he could not refuse.
Zheng Qinghuai calmed down and said softly: "Don't be afraid of Mother. You know Doctor Cheng, too, Qi Xuan is here too. I'll go to sleep for two hours."
Mrs. Jinning Hou still refused to let go.
Zheng Qinghuai was in a dilemma and stood by the bed without moving.
Zhu Qixuan felt annoyed.
The road is far away and the horse's strength is seen from time to time. This mother-in-law was arrogant back then. After all, she was the second-rank Marquis' wife, and it is inevitable that she has a bigger temper. But what's so annoying is that after the Zheng family fell, Mrs. Jinning Marquis was obsessed with the glory of the past and wanted to make the Zheng family make a comeback.
Zheng Qinghuai didn't listen to her, so she cursed and accused her in every possible way. She was even more disgusted with her daughter-in-law.
Now that I am sick, I don’t feel at all calm. I don’t feel sorry for my son who hasn’t been sleeping all night.
Zhu Qixuan walked forward, exerted a little force, held Mrs. Jinning Hou's hand in her hand, and turned her head to urge Zheng Qinghuai: "You go to bed, I'll take care of my mother-in-law here."
Zheng Qinghuai left now.
Mrs. Jinning Hou glared at her daughter-in-law with sparks in her eyes.
Unfortunately, her face was stiff and she couldn't even say anything, let alone curse.
Zhu Qixuan saw it and felt relieved. He deliberately approached and spoke intimately: "Mother-in-law, you can save this life thanks to your cousin's wife. You can't speak now. When the disease improves in the future and you can speak, you have to thank your cousin's wife for the first time."
