Chapter 647
Chapter 647
When things in the world go as planned and people go, one will naturally feel happy.
For example, Song Guanzhou's health improved, and her whole spirit was different. She could joke and chat with the maids and old women, and also with her sisters-in-law. Everyone saw that her complexion got much better within a day or two, and they all thought it was magical.
When Xu Lingqiao fell ill, she lost a lot of weight.
Now Song Guanzhou has started to gain weight, but she can't eat. After asking Doctor Zhao to see her, he said that she has depression in her heart, excessive worry, and blood stasis, and her internal organs need to be taken care of.
After prescribing appetite-stimulating and mind-calming medicine, it would take two more doses to see if it was effective. However, he felt less lively. Qi Yueniang suggested asking Doctor Sun for help again, but Xu Lingqiao quickly stood up to stop her.
"Thank you for your concern, sister-in-law. However, this stomach problem needs to be treated slowly. I will take the herbal medicine prescribed by Doctor Zhao first. If I still don't feel better, I will ask Uncle Sun to come and see me."
"Look at you two sisters. You used to be as beautiful and lively as lotus flowers. But now the boat is slowly turning around, and you are the one who is listless. If this continues, who will be able to tell that you two sisters are cut from the same cloth?"
Zhang Huifang held her belly and nodded, "Sister Ling Qiao, you can rest assured now. Look at Guan Zhou. He has been able to eat and sleep well in the past two days. To be honest, he didn't seem to be sick a few days ago, but rather possessed by evil spirits."
Having said that, he couldn't help but look at Song Guanzhou who was leaning on the kang bed.
Song Guanzhou smiled bitterly, and after thinking about it, he decided to say a few words, "I have too many nightmares, but they are all about my adopted brother. I rarely thought about him in the past year, but now that I'm sick, I can't stop dreaming about him every day."
Ok?
Qi Yueniang had just taken a sip of warm tea when she heard this and said quickly, "You are still young, so don't take your dreams seriously. My uncle must be fine."
Song Guanzhou nodded.
"Now that I have come out of the dream, I am thinking about how he does not fight or compete, and his temperament is free and easy. If nothing unexpected happens, he will surely live a long life."
"That's what I think."
Qi Yueniang said a few words of comfort, and Song Guanzhou thought for a moment, and then whispered, "I am slightly involved with Aunt Fang and her servant, and now in my nightmare, she and her servant are always by my side."
As soon as she finished speaking, Qi Yueniang's expression suddenly turned bad.
"Guan Zhou, are you talking about Aunt Fang who was with father?"
Song Guanzhou nodded, "Except for her, there was no one else. At that time, my eldest sister-in-law had not returned home yet. She had a dispute with my mother, and I don't know how she jumped into the big-bellied, small-mouthed well in the small Buddhist courtyard..."
Qi Yueniang took a silk handkerchief and wiped the water stains from the corners of her lips. "Of course I know about this. You rescued Concubine Fang, but she was not motivated and didn't make it."
Zhang Fanghui and Xu Lingqiao had also heard about this matter, and they found it unbelievable when they heard it this time.
"Logically speaking, Guan Zhou saved her and her servant, so why is she so ungrateful? They are entangled in nightmares, I'm afraid they are ghosts who are unwilling to leave."
As soon as Zhang Fanghui finished speaking, Rendong came in with some snacks and took over the conversation.
"I don't know why the master and servant have been pestering the young lady for a long time. The young lady has been having nightmares for those days. How come she is still having nightmares now..."
At this point, Ren Dong raised her head and said to Song Guanzhou, "Young Madam, why don't I go to Longen Temple to burn some incense and ask the monks to chant some sutras for her and her servant to be reborn."
"I guess it won't help."
She roughly understood that Aunt Fang and Jinzhu were now on the run and had become wandering ghosts. They must have seen through her past and future, and had been trying to drag her to the underworld time and time again. Even the Buddhist methods of salvation and the Taoist methods of exorcism would probably be useless.
"I will try. Otherwise, if the ghost keeps lingering around, it will be a miracle if you can recover, Madam."
Hearing this, Xu Lingqiao also stood up and said, "I will go with you tomorrow. This time I also made a wish in front of the Buddha. When Guan Zhou wakes up, I will go to fulfill my wish."
Ever since Xu Lingqiao got into trouble, she has rarely appeared in the capital.
I used to be afraid of meeting the man that night, but when I found out it was Huang Zhi, I felt desperate. I thought that I would have to leave Beijing with my brother to take up a post at the beginning of the year, and going out once or twice should not be a problem.
Song Guanzhou waved his hand, "Sister, if you want to go, let me know in advance. I will talk to Brother Linshan and ask him to escort you and Rendong."
At this point, she chuckled.
"The Buddha doesn't care about me. I never kneel or worship him. There are so many suffering people in the world. How can he have the time to care about me——"
"Young Madam, be careful with your words! I will kneel down for you!"
Honeysuckle spat twice, as if gods and Buddhas were watching over the young lady from somewhere in the dark. She clasped her hands together and said "Amitabha" repeatedly.
Song Guanzhou smiled brightly, and his long hair fell loose, becoming as soft as a pool of stream water.
She still looks so charming and beautiful, but her face is a little pale, making her look more like a mountain goddess who has fallen into the mortal world.
Qi Yueniang looked over and sighed, "My dear sister, you and the fourth brother are really made for each other. Not to mention your talents, just looking at your looks, if you two had a child, it would probably be the most beautiful child in my family."
Song Guanzhou begged for mercy again and again.
"My dear sister-in-law, I am weak and I am afraid that I will not be able to get good news in a year or two. Besides, there are three brothers, Qin Ge'er, in the mansion, which is enough. Now my second brother has a sister, so we have both sons and daughters."
Qi Yueniang waved her hands repeatedly.
"Don't talk nonsense. No matter how close they are to you, there is still a layer of distance between them. It's better to have your own children. Besides, you and the fourth brother love each other so much. If you have two more brothers and sisters, it will be perfect."
After some chatting and laughing, everyone was in harmony.
Apart from Xiao Yinxiu, she now only interacts with Qi Yueniang and Zhang Fanghui from time to time, and is like a stranger to others.
Outside the mansion, she used to have several good ladies. There were always opportunities for them to get together and have fun, as the ladies from the east and west families would marry off their daughters or marry their daughters-in-law.
Since she was relieved of her duties as the household clerk, Qi Yue Niang invited her to go out of the house to attend many weddings and funerals, but she politely declined.
At this point, I feel even lonelier.
Hearing that Qi Yueniang came to see her, she waved her hand and asked Shuangyue to send her away. But before Shuangyue could leave, Qi Yueniang came in and asked, "Your wife said she is not feeling well again and can't see me?"
Shuang Yue quickly knelt down, "Madam, the eldest young master..."
Now that people have come in, there is no way to fool them. Xiao Yinxiu was lazy and called out in a listless voice, "Sister-in-law, come in and sit down."
As soon as she finished speaking, Qi Yueniang lifted the gauze curtain, walked around the screen and came in.
"Axiu!"
She looked at Xiao Yinxiu, whose face was sallow and looked really bad, and scolded in a low voice, "Why, do you really not want this body anymore?"
Xiao Yinxiu took her by the arm and sat on the couch.
Qi Yueniang looked around and sighed repeatedly, "You are bored in this small space all day long, it's useless. Not to mention you, even if it's the broad-minded Tathagata Buddha, he would be depressed if he squatted here with you."
Xiao Yinxiu's eyes were filled with tears, "Sister-in-law..."
