The High Gate Mistress of Rebirth

Chapter 317 Difficulties in Pingyang

Opening a drug store and decorating the store are all easy, as long as they are explained, Jingshu does not need to worry too much. Li Ling takes care of those complicated procedures, so Jingshu can also worry less. The difficulty lies in hiring a shopkeeper.

Running a drug store is not like other businesses. In addition to being able to run a business, the shopkeeper must also be proficient in pharmacology. Jing Shu chose one for a long time but could not find one she was satisfied with. It happened that Murong Lizhu knew a doctor who was originally from the Murong Palace in Jiangdong.

The imperial doctor, because of carelessness

She offended someone and was kicked out of the palace. She left Jiangdong in anger and came to Beijing. She worked as a shopkeeper in a medical clinic. Later, the owner of the medical clinic moved her family to Waifu. Murong Lizhu learned that Jingshu was going to do something.

The drug store introduced this person over.

Jing Shu felt very satisfied when she saw this man and signed a contract with him.

After making a reservation with the shopkeeper, it was time for dinner. Jingshu invited Murong Lizhu to the restaurant next door. The two chose a private room, ordered a few side dishes, and chatted while eating.

Murong Lizhu is now pregnant, but her complexion is still very good. Since marrying Jiang Youchen, the couple has been living their life wholeheartedly in their own house in Beijing. Murong Lizhu does not need to serve her parents-in-law like other wives.

Her mother-in-law controlled and established rules, and Jiang Youchen treated her tenderly and considerately, so her life was naturally very comfortable.

Speaking of which, all of this was thanks to Jingshu's matchmaking. Murong Lizhu was grateful to her cousin from the bottom of her heart, and regarded her as a benefactor in her heart.

The two of them had similar temperaments, and they naturally talked in a congenial manner. They kept chatting for the rest of the day. After leaving the restaurant, Jingshu sent the pregnant Murong Lizhu home first. As soon as they reached the halfway point, she met the man who had just gotten off duty to pick her up.

The daughter-in-law Jiang Youchen and Murong Lizhu were protected, so Jingshu ordered the driver to turn the car around and rush to the mansion.

When the carriage and horses arrived at the gate of the house, they happened to meet Li Ling who was returning from duty. Li Ling saw his wife, got off the horse, helped his wife out of the car, and asked: "Are you going to discuss the matter at the drug store again?"

As the two walked into the yard, Jingshu told Li Ling one by one about the drug store's receipts. Li Ling listened patiently and gave some suggestions from time to time.

As soon as the young couple entered Qingfeng Garden, Danzhu came up to them and replied hurriedly: "Madam, I went back and forth to Xianglin Garden for the rest of the day and you happened to be not in the house. I heard that the third lady saw the red today."

When Jingshu heard this, she was shocked and asked: "Have you invited the imperial doctor? Do you know how the three siblings are doing now?"

Danzhu replied: "I have already asked the imperial doctor, but now I don't know the truth."

"I'll go over and take a look." With that said, Jingshu left Li Ling behind and hurriedly turned towards Xianglin Garden.

Pingyang was leaning on the bedside with a pale face. Seeing Jingshu rushing over in a hurry, she stood up and said, "Second sister-in-law, don't worry, I'm fine now."

Jing Shu hurriedly stepped forward and pressed her on the pillow, asking, "What did the imperial doctor say?"

Xu Wanning learned that Xin'er was also in Xianglinyuan at the moment. After hearing this, she replied: "The imperial doctor said that she did not take good care of her last child, which led to the deficiency of this child."

As she said that, she sighed deeply: "This pregnancy did come too soon."

Pingyang saw her two sisters-in-law looking worried about her, and said with a smile: "Sisters-in-law, don't be anxious. The imperial doctor has prescribed medicine to support the fetus. I'll just take it and take care of it."

Pingyang is now more than two months old, almost the same month as Murong Lizhu, but their complexions are very different. Although Jingshu doesn't understand medicine, she doesn't know what Pingyang looks like.

If a pregnant woman is too weak to carry her baby to term, the risk of miscarriage is very high when the fetus is large. Even if it lasts to term, if the mother's Qi and blood are severely deficient, it is very easy to have dystocia during delivery.

There were no outsiders in the house, so Jingshu and Pingyang advised them from the bottom of their hearts: "You don't have to worry too much. If you feel bad, go back to your grandmother and mother while the month is still young and simply give up the baby. They will definitely be able to do it."

understand."

The old lady and the eldest princess are both sensible people. Although the heir is important, they will never ignore the safety of their daughter-in-law just because of this.

Xu Wanning also advised Pingyang after hearing this: "The imperial doctor just now said that you have lost both energy and blood. I think it's better to give up now. You are still so young, and you will be raised for three to five years until you have passed the Double Ten."

Having more children will be better for your health."

After hearing what his two sisters-in-law said, Pingyang sighed deeply and said: "Although it is difficult now, I can't bear to let go of this child like this. If it is a boy, wouldn't it be a pity."

Women naturally look forward to having a son by their side, and Jingshu and Xu Wanning naturally understand Pingyang's thoughts.

Jing Shu said: "You are still so young, why worry about not having a son in the future."

Xu Wanning has experienced a lot, and now she is even more open-minded. After hearing what Pingyang said, she said quickly: "How can giving birth to a son be more important than your own life? My second sister-in-law even gave birth to five children.

She is a daughter, and her body is so weak that she can no longer withstand the torment. Even if she listens to others' advice, let her concubine give birth to a son and hold it under her knees to raise her. Even if the son is not crawling out of her own belly, there is still a layer between her, but it is better than risking her life.

.”

As soon as the words came out of her mouth, Xu Wanning realized that she had gone too far, and quickly added: "Of course I'm not cursing you not to have a son. What I mean is that you can't risk your own life just to have a son."

Pingyang knew that this sister-in-law had always been a fast-talking and forthright person, so she naturally would not pick problems. She smiled and said: "I know that both sisters-in-law are doing it for my own good, but since this child has come to us, I will not

Giving up so easily."

After Jing Shu and Xu Wanning left, Yuzhu couldn't help but persuade her master: "You are so weak now. Both ladies are sincerely thinking about you. Why don't you listen to the two ladies' advice."

Pingyang waved his hands and said firmly, "Don't mention this to me again."

As she said that, she looked out the door and pouted, "My husband has been out for a while, why haven't you seen him come back yet?"

Yuzhu replied: "Third Master has gone to take the imperial doctor back to the palace. When he comes back, he has to go to the apothecary to get some medicine for you. It will inevitably take some time."

Saying that, Yuzhu stepped forward to tuck Pingyang into bed: "The imperial doctor has repeatedly asked you to pay more attention to your rest. Just now you have been talking to the two ladies for so long. Now you should have a good sleep to recuperate your spirit."

Pingyang said: "I'm just squinting. I can't sleep now. If my husband comes back, just invite him in. I want to see him."

Yuzhu shook her head helplessly and said: "My slave knows this. I will go to the door and wait for my uncle. When he comes back, I will ask him to come in and accompany you. You can just close your eyes and rest in peace."
