The Splendid Medical Concubine: The Journey of a Concubine

Chapter 26 026 Seven Days

Mrs. Shen said to her siblings with a gentle expression: "Sister Chen, you stay here to play with your fourth brother."

She winked at Nanny Chen again.

Grandma Chen understood immediately, called the two women, quickly took Silk Lady out, and gagged her as soon as she went out.

Mrs. Shen also went out, leaving only the sister and brother in the back room. The door curtain swayed slightly in mid-air, making a rustling sound.

Chu Qianchen stood up to see Shen off respectfully, his long eyelashes trembling slightly.

Silk Lady dared to act like this because she was Brother Mu's wet nurse and knew that Brother Mu was at an age when he was showing off his strength and competitiveness.

If this drags on for a few more days, Brother Mu's broken leg bone will completely grow back, and it will be difficult to cure.

By then, even if he can cure it, Brother Mu will still suffer a lot. If it is delayed any longer, he will not be able to do anything about it.

"Brother Mu, has anyone touched your right foot?" Chu Qianchen sat back on the couch and looked at Chu Yunmu and asked.

"No." Chu Yunmu shook his head and added, "Silk Girl hasn't moved either."

Chu Yunmu looked at the swaying door curtain and asked, "Second sister, has Silk Lady done something wrong?"

"Yes." Chu Qianchen knew that Shen had deliberately avoided Chu Yunmu to interrogate Silk Mother, "Brother Mu, your foot hurts, Silk Mother should tell your mother, instead of letting you hide it, Silk Mother does it Wrong."

"You were born by your mother, and the one you should trust most is your mother, not your wet nurse."

"Think about it, if your mother gets sick, would you be worried?"

Chu Yunmu thought for a while, his phoenix eyes flashing, and nodded: "I was wrong."

Chu Qianchen rubbed the top of his hair, his eyes filled with tenderness.

If no one has touched Chu Yunmu's broken bones in the past few days, then the only possibility left is that Doctor Li did not set the bones properly. Dr. Li is a well-known doctor in Beijing. He has been practicing medicine for decades. Can he fail to connect bones? !

There are laws in this dynasty that stipulate that people with disabilities are not allowed to be officials, nor are they allowed to receive titles...

Is this a calculated move, or is it just an accident?

In just a few days, Brother Mu first "accidentally" fell from the rockery, and then "accidentally" broke his bones. Calling it an "accident", this "accident" is too much.

"Brother Mu, just lie here and I'll go talk to your mother," Chu Qianchen said.

Chu Yunmu obediently agreed and lay back.

Chu Qianchen asked the maid to keep an eye on Chu Yunmu, then went out and went directly to the Dongci Room.

As soon as she walked into the main room, she heard Mrs. Shen from Tojima examining Kinu Niang. She couldn't hear what was specifically said. She could only hear Kinu Niang sobbing and crying, and her voice was very muffled.

After the maid guarding the door went in to report to Mrs. Shen, Chu Qianchen walked in and Fu Er repeated what Chu Yunmu had just said. Mrs. Shen fell into deep thought and at the same time raised her hand to make a gesture, and Silu Niang was captured by the mother-in-law again. They took him down.

Chu Qianchen stood with his hands down, and moved his eyes to Aunt Chen on the other side. From her face to her chin to her neck, her eyebrows wrinkled slightly.

Grandma Chen felt a little frightened when Chu Qianchen saw her, so she asked cautiously: "Second Miss, what are you looking at this slave for?"

When Shen heard this, she also raised her head and looked at Chu Qianchen.

Chu Qianchen originally wanted to ask, so he said bluntly: "Mother Chen, there was no rash on your face or neck a few days ago."

Speaking of this, Grandma Chen's face looked a little ugly, and she replied sheepishly: "It just grew out yesterday."

When she woke up, she discovered that she had these rashes for no apparent reason.

Originally, if she had a rash, she shouldn't serve in front of her master and be in his eyes. However, the fourth young master's mistake was still being investigated a few days ago. Madam's place was short of manpower, so she didn't ask for leave.

At this moment, being said by Chu Qianchen in front of her face, Grandma Chen felt uncomfortable. She just thought that Chu Qianchen was mocking her, and said firmly: "Maybe she was bitten by some insect. Thank you, second girl." care."

As she said this, she felt her face was itchy and couldn't help but raise her hand to scratch it.

"Wait a minute, don't scratch." Chu Qianchen stopped her, "Mother Chen, do you feel that the rash is hot, your throat is itchy, your stomach is churning, and you want to vomit?"

Grandma Chen didn't take it seriously at first. As she listened, her face turned a little pale.

She has all these symptoms!

How did the second girl know?

Seeing the look on Nanny Chen's face, Chu Qianchen knew that he had guessed everything right. He frowned even more tightly and asked, "Nanny Chen, do you have any wounds on your body?"

Grandma Chen subconsciously looked at her right hand. There was a thin scratch on her palm, which was already scabbed. "This was a scratch caused by a fragment of a cup accidentally five days ago."

Chu Qianchen's delicate and bright face revealed a rare dignity, and he said to Mrs. Shen: "Mother, please go out first."

"Don't let anyone come in this time. Also, let everyone in the yard scrub their bodies with mugwort leaves soaked in water, and then ask the mother-in-law to check them carefully one by one to see if there are any wounds or redness on their bodies. Rash." Mrs. Shen also heard that something was wrong. She first told the maid to go and do it quickly, and then asked: "Sister Chen, what's going on?"

Chu Qianchen said: "Mother, it's very possible that Grandma Chen has suffered from the 'Seven-Day Fu'."

"Seven-day volts?!" Mrs. Shen pinched the handkerchief, and her expression changed instantly. "You said that the 'seven-day volts' spread in Ru County in the past few years, and in the end it almost caused ten houses and three empty houses?"

As he spoke, Shen's voice trembled a little.

"That's it." Chu Qianchen was a little surprised that Mrs. Shen had heard of the Seven-Day Hidden. He nodded and said, "Mom, it's better to go out first. Follow my instructions and search everyone in the yard. Be sure to be careful. "

Grandma Chen didn't know what seven-day fever was, but from what Shen said, she knew that this disease was not a minor illness. It was not only contagious, but also fatal.

Grandma Chen was sweating profusely and anxious, and said quickly: "Madam, please get out quickly!"

Grandma Chen regretted it so much. She should not have come to work today if she had known earlier!

What if the madam and the fourth young master are infected by her!

The more Grandma Chen thought about it, the more frightened she became. Her face turned pale and she almost lost her balance.

Chu Qianchen said to Shen again: "Yes, mother, please go out first."

Shen did not respond, but asked: "What about you?"

Chu Qianchen was slightly startled.

She really didn't expect that Mrs. Shen would still be thinking about her at this time. She smiled and said bluntly: "I'll check Grandma Chen's pulse first to confirm whether it's a seven-day volt. If it's really a seven-day volt, I need to do something about it quickly." Understand where she got it."

A housekeeper like Grandma Chen usually works and rests in the mansion. If the infection is contracted in the mansion, the source should be found quickly. .

Chu Qianchen comforted her and said, "Don't worry, mother. The rash on Grandma Chen's face is not broken yet. She shouldn't be seriously ill and she won't be worried about her life."

"Seven-day volts" is just as its name suggests. The process from infection to recovery only lasts seven days. If you can't survive it, you will die.

This disease is very contagious, but the scary thing is that once you are infected, if you don't get treatment in time, you will most likely not survive.

Grandma Chen was probably infected on the day her right hand was scratched, and it is now the fifth day.

Mrs. Shen nodded and said, "Sister Chen, please continue."

She sat elegantly on the armchair, not planning to leave.

"Mother?" Chu Qianchen called again.

Mrs. Shen said matter-of-factly: "This is the main courtyard, my courtyard. There is no reason for you to stay here. As a mother, I would avoid it. If you need to feel for your pulse, feel for it, and if you need to ask questions, just ask. Don’t worry about me.”

Shen looked at Chu Qianchen calmly, looking as steady as a mountain.

Chu Qianchen: "..."

Chu Qianchen knew in his heart that Shen refused to leave because he had not left, and an indescribable feeling arose in his heart.

In her memory, her aunt Shen was an elegant, sensible and dignified person.

In the previous life, she had always stayed away from Shen after listening to Aunt Jiang's words. She had never discovered that Shen had such a willful and willful side under her elegant and graceful appearance.

Chu Qianchen smiled helplessly and compromised, "Then mother, please sit down first."

She always acted decisively and did not argue with Shen again about this. She asked Nanny Chen to sit down and stretched out her wrist.

Chu Qianchen quickly felt the pulse of Nanny Chen, his eyes serious.

She was sure that what Nanny Chen was suffering from was the Seven-Day Hidden Day.

As she expected, Grandma Chen was not seriously ill.

Chu Qianchen thought about the right prescription in his mind, put down his right hand to check for pulse, cleaned his hands, and asked with two minds: "Mother Chen, where have you been in the past few days after you injured your hand? Have you had any contact with her? Other people’s blood?”

Nanny Chen works in the main courtyard every day. On weekdays, she only accompanies Mrs. Shen to go to Mrs. Tai's place for morning and evening meditation, or go for a walk in the garden. People like them who serve their masters closely rarely get hurt.

Grandma Chen recalled the itinerary of the past few days. She thought about it again and again. Suddenly her eyes widened and she blurted out: "Madam, I remembered, it's Mei'er!"

"Mei'er?" Of course Chu Qianchen still remembered this name.

Mei'er was the little maid who went to Rongfu Hall to report Chu Yunmu's fall from the rockery six days ago.

"That's her." Nanny Chen nodded anxiously, "She asked for leave and returned home. Five days ago, I went to her house..."
