Tiandao doesn't work today
Chapter 11 The rich family still sighs that the cold is not over
"God bless! God bless! What an escape!"
Jiang Shouyi ran to the city gate out of breath, still feeling terrified.
He thought he was dead, so he took out the bell and tried to fight to the death, but miraculously survived?
What on earth is this copper bell? It's obviously a welded dumbbell, but it actually rings when it hits that woman...
Jiang Shouyi vaguely guessed that it should be the magical weapon of the Immortal family, but he didn't understand it, so he didn't care. It would be good to survive anyway.
He looked at Yan Nu in his arms. At some point, the boy broke away from the cloth and sucked the medicine bottle.
"You brat, you're hungry, aren't you? I don't even know what kind of medicine this is, so just put it in your mouth..." Jiang Shouyi smiled, but didn't stop him.
He knew that this boy was extraordinary, and taking medicine was like taking milk...Eh?
"Cough, cough, ugh!"
Yannu slurred a bottle of medicine into his mouth, choked and coughed, and burst into tears.
This is wrong! Isn’t this child able to eat anything? Why did it suddenly stop working? Is this bottle of medicine special?
Jiang Shouyi quickly snatched the medicine bottle away and saw that it was indeed a bottle of uneaten medicine powder. Could it be that this bottle of medicine was so powerful that even monsters couldn't stand it?
He was anxious and quickly slapped Yan Nu on the back to make him spit out the medicine.
However, despite vomiting, Yan Nu's lips turned blue, his whole body twitched, and his eyes were blurred as if he had been poisoned!
Jiang Shouyi tasted it slightly. It was indeed pungent and had a metallic smell. Although he didn't know what kind of medicine it was, it was three parts poisonous. How could a baby eat it randomly?
He couldn't help but regret that he didn't stop it immediately. He really never thought that a magical baby that was broken into two parts and still alive would be poisoned by a bottle of medicine?
I had taken several bottles of medicine before and it was fine. Why did it happen now?
The monster's ability has failed? No, the wounds on his head and stomach are still there. If the ability fails, Yan Slave will die now!
Jiang Shouyi eagerly took his child to see the doctor, but halfway there, he felt helpless.
He thought about this child's problem, how could the doctor care about it?
Not to mention detoxification, if the doctor saw that the child's intestines could be removed, he would probably faint from shock!
Then the government found out that Yan Nu was regarded as a monster and might even be directly cremated.
"How to do how to do?"
Seeing Yan Nu twitching and whimpering in pain, Jiang Shouyi was extremely worried.
But he still had luck. After all, Yan Slave was so magical that he might still be able to get through it.
He first bought some steamed cakes and fed them to the child. Xiao Yannu moved his mouth slightly and ate them all.
This made Jiang Shouyi breathe a sigh of relief: Yes, he is still a freak!
Just be a freak!
There was nowhere for babies to eat solid food, but Yan Nu just ate it. He survived by eating steamed cakes from Chen Hu for the past two days, which shows that he is still magical.
"So you should be able to survive this poison, you can survive it..." Jiang Shouyi hugged the child and hid in the alley, hoping for God's blessing.
Then every once in a while, Yan Nu was fed some steamed cakes, and the remaining cakes were quickly gone.
However, as an hour passed, the signs of Yan Nu's poisoning no longer improved, but became more and more serious!
His whole body was swollen and bruised, as if toxins were all over his body.
Jiang Shouyi didn't know what to do, but a wealthy family happened to be giving porridge, so he quickly went to get a bowl for Yan Nu to drink.
However, something went wrong this time. Yan Nu couldn't drink it anymore. The rice porridge was all blocked in his throat. He was so frightened that he slapped and dug desperately, so that Yan Nu could breathe smoothly again.
"Can you eat steamed cakes, but can't drink rice porridge? What's going on! Yan slave! Yan slave!" Jiang Shouyi sobbed, feeling extremely helpless.
He could no longer bear the pain of his grandson dying in his own hands. He felt like a evil star at the moment.
Could it be that even such a miraculous God-given baby must be raised to death by himself?
Fortunately, Jiang Shouyi still had money, so he quickly bought the same steamed cake as before, and as expected, he ate it.
He scratched his head desperately, Yan Nu's situation was too weird, he couldn't understand it!
But he also realized that Yan Nu could eat the things he had eaten before.
But since when did Yan Nu become unable to digest other foods?
"Is it...Xue'er?"
Jiang Shouyi slowly sorted out his thoughts and suddenly realized that everything happened after sending Xueer away.
I can eat steamed cakes, but I can't feed them rice porridge. It's been two hours, and the poison I accidentally ate has not been cured yet.
"God gave you two births, so you must not be separated?"
"Once separated, this child's magic...will disappear? Or...stagnate?"
He didn't expect that the pair of children he picked up would have such a relationship.
But it is reasonable to think about it. They were a pair when they were found. They should not be simple, but the girl looks too normal.
"What should we do..." Jiang Shouyi bit his lips. He had already been sent out, and the lady was probably in labor.
If he goes back to beg for help now, he is seeking death, and he can't make a living either.
"No... I just need to get through the poison this time. Let's meet... I just need to take the child to meet... From now on, Yan Slave will grow up normally. Isn't that good?"
Jiang Shouyi was heartbroken and immediately ran back to the back door of Zhu Mansion!
Regardless of whether it is useful or not, let’s treat a dead horse as a living horse doctor! Even if he comes back, he will definitely die!
It was getting late now, so he knocked on the back door of Zhu's Mansion, and what came out was a new concierge, a little young, but still looking arrogant.
He said humbly: "I would like to see Miss Xiangyun."
"What the hell are you!" The concierge sneered at his humbleness.
"There is a big event in the house, Miss Xiangyun is busy!"
Jiang Shouyi directly fooled him and said, "Miss Xiangyun asked me to come..."
He was vague and didn't mention too much, so as not to spoil Xiangyun and her wife's affairs.
If something goes wrong, it doesn't matter if he dies, but the good life of the noble daughter of the Xueer family is gone.
Jiang Shouyi understood very well and knew that he had a secret with those two people, so when he left and returned this time, he didn't need to say anything explicitly. As long as he came, the other party would definitely see him... even if he wanted to kill him.
"Huh? Wait! If you are scolded by the madam, be nice!" Although the concierge is arrogant, communication is his duty and he does not dare to neglect it.
Jiang Shouyi squatted outside the door and waited, watching Yan Nuer become weaker and weaker, twitching and unconscious, and anxious.
He was completely gambling with his life. The noble Zhu family might not let him see his child again.
If Xue'er was 'born', she would probably be fed by a wet nurse, or passed around by a group of elders, or it might be in the hands of a certain noble person.
He was a pariah, and suddenly he came back and said he wanted to see Xue'er. Why didn't Xiangyun chop him with a sword?
In fact, he was right. After hearing the report from his servants, Xiangyun wanted to kill him quickly.
"This old man, after sparing his life, still dares to come back?"
"Thankfully, I learned about it first. If I had reported it to the First Madam... I would have been targeted..."
Although Xiangyun was furious, he did not dare to show it and stood silently on the side of the flower hall.
Just because of this, a group of elders from the clan gathered in the hall at this moment. One of them, an old woman, held Xueer in her arms and caressed her carefully with her fingers.
This is looking for immortal bones.
The old woman is the head of the family's wife and the eldest son's mother. Now that the head of the family is in the court and the son is living a wild life, she is the one in charge of this family. If the old lady doesn't leave, who dares to move?
"Mother! What's wrong? Does my son have immortal bones?" Suddenly, a person burst into the flower hall.
He is wearing a crane cloak with red feathers, crepe and white fox skin. He has fair skin, gold powder on his face, and disheveled hair. He is none other than Zhu Xiazhi.
"Xizhi, what have you done? You don't even know you're a girl?" said an old man with a beautiful beard, stroking his beard.
Zhu Xiazhi's eyes were blurred, and his body was steaming with heat. He looked as if he was drunk: "Qin'er suddenly went into labor, and I rushed here... I was just taking medicine with my clan brothers..."
Now in his thirties, he is still bohemian, even more carefree than when he was young.
The third uncle couldn't help but blame: "You have two children, why can't you be more stable? How will you manage this family in the future?"
Zhu Xiazhi chuckled: "He will take care of his own future. Today is not over yet, so why talk about the future!"
Seeing that he was speechless, the third uncle was so angry that he couldn't speak!
On the other hand, Zhu Xiazhi's mother scolded: "How presumptuous! You are so rude, Xiazhi!"
When Zhu Xiazhi saw his mother getting angry, he quickly bowed down and admitted his mistake: "My child knows his mistake."
The old lady said solemnly: "Why don't you apologize to your third uncle?"
Zhu Xiazhi pouted and said, "My nephew Zhuo Nao is unruly and has such a temperament. Please forgive me, Third Uncle."
What a brilliant and unruly person! The third uncle felt depressed and worried about the future of the Zhu family.
But the family head only has two legitimate sons. The younger son Zhu Yuanzhi has gone to the mountains to practice Taoism and has already been "killed in the world of mortals". The eldest son Zhu Xiazhi has no immortal bones, so he will definitely be the head of the family in the future.
"Well, take a good look at your daughter...she looks really good." The old lady had already touched the bones, shook her head slightly, and handed Xue'er to Zhu Xiazhi.
She didn't say it clearly, but everyone knew that there was no immortal bone anymore.
Zhu Xiazhi looked at his daughter and beamed with joy: "Hey! So what if I don't have fairy bones? My little girl's skin is as creamy and as smooth as jade. She has the beauty and fragrance of a country just after she was born. She might become a queen in the future!"
The old lady smiled faintly. This daughter was indeed well born. The queen was a bit far away, but it was very possible to marry into a first-class family!
So she glanced at Zhu Xiazhi's first wife, who was respectful and silent, and gave her a slight warning before leaving gracefully.
"Mom, go slowly!" Zhu Xiazhi sent her off unsteadily.
The old lady walked to the door, suddenly turned around and reminded: "Xiazhi, now that the child is born, you must take the time to go to the Yamen. The imperial court has granted you the title of Anqiu County Magistrate. You should take it seriously..."
"It's snowing too much this year. You control the whole people, so you can't just let your staff do everything."
Zhu Xiazhi was looking down at his beautiful daughter who was teasing him. He heard something about the snow falling too hard? A saucy smile.
He held up his daughter who was like a jade doll: "I can't bear to say goodbye to my beauty. How can I look into the snow? Don't be surprised that spring returns late, but the victory is not over yet!"
"Yes! My daughter's name is Zhu Yanxue!"
The third uncle took a breath... His precious daughter was so beautiful, how could he bother to look at the heavy snow outside? Don’t be surprised that spring comes late, it’s better than being too cold to enjoy it!
The third uncle of the Zhu family felt numb after listening to this poem he recited casually. Although he was used to his uninhibitedness, this time it was a bit too much.
Heavy snow this year has covered the six northern states! In Qingzhou alone, 50,000 people died of hunger and cold!
There were refugees in Donglai County who pretended to be gods and rebelled in the name of immortals. The situation in Anqiu was slightly better, but a large number of refugees gathered because of this... And outside many other cities, frozen corpses blocked the city gates.
As a local parent, you actually feel that this cold wave is not enough fun? What do you mean by ‘the victory is still not over yet’?
The third uncle had a sullen face and was about to scold him harshly, but the old lady spoke first.
"If you are told to go, go! The prefect of Langya is old. You have been looking after him for twenty years. The master is also the prince Zhan Shi. In the future... Anyway, you have to start preparing. How can you not go to the Yamen once?"
The unfinished meaning of what the old lady said was that when the prince ascended the throne, Zhu Xiazhi would be able to become the prefect of Langya.
Seeing that the topic had gone so far, the third uncle could only swallow back the words he wanted to accuse.
This is the heir of the Zhu family. He has never been to the Yamen and can become the prefect of Langya...
And it was basically determined a few years ago, unless the one who ascended the throne was not the prince.
How can we talk to him about the county magistrate's duties in this situation?
"Mother, the child knows. When I take a look at Qin'er, I will go to the Yamen immediately!" Zhu Xiazhi quickly and respectfully agreed.
He knew his mother too well and didn't care about his debauchery. As long as he was respectful and obedient in front of his mother at critical moments, letting her know that he respected her and only her words mattered, then everything would be fine.
Sure enough, the old lady nodded with satisfaction: "Okay, let's not disturb them."
After saying that, she left directly. How could so many elders stay? The third uncle had no choice but to go with her.
From the beginning to the end, they had no intention of going into the back room to see Yueqin, who was still performing on the bed.
Yueqin was very worried for fear of being discovered, but there was no doubt that her worries were in vain.
Not many people in the whole government care about her at all. Except for the servants, only Zhu Xiazhi comes to this side courtyard on weekdays.
"Husband, the old lady and the others are all gone?"
"I'm leaving, but I have to go to the Yamen, so I can only come back later to stay with you."
Leqin breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that the hardest part was over.
"It doesn't matter, business matters are important. Xue'er has her own nanny to take care of her, and I also have Xiangyun..."
Speaking of this, Leqin was shocked. She had spilled the beans! She actually said the name the old man gave her.
No matter what the child's name was before, now that she is a noble daughter of the Zhu family, she must have a new name.
However, Zhu Xiazhi smiled and said: "Oh? Qin'er's good ears have heard it? Yes... Zhu Yanxue, Xue'er, you also think this name is good, right?"
"It's great that my husband got it." Leqin smiled. It turned out that there was also a word for snow in her name. It was really fate.
The two didn't stay warm for long. Zhu Xiazhi felt that the medicine had worn off, so he changed his clothes listlessly and went to the Yamen.
It was only then that Xiangyun finally had the chance to say: "The old man is here again, I'm going to kill him!"
Yueqin was already lying down without any trouble, but when he heard this, he sat up again anxiously and was extremely angry.
"Why is he here again, trying to take advantage of me?" Yueqin was afraid of this situation and spared the old man's life. If the matter was leaked, it would be better to silence him from the beginning.
She immediately wanted to get out of bed, but thinking that the nanny was still in the room outside, she had to lie back down again.
"Bring him in!"
Xiangyun said: "Bring him here? Isn't that bad? Let the slaves get rid of him."
Leqin shook his head: "It doesn't matter, he's just an old man. I'll tell you later that I arranged to hold a baby boy for him, but it's a pity that he came late."
"I need to know who he has been in contact with. This old man will not come back for no reason!"
Not long after, Xiangyun led Jiang Shouyi over.
While still outside the door, Jiang Shouyi heard Xue'er crying. What was surprising was that Yan Nu's twitching stopped instantly, and he opened his eyes again.
"Just hearing the cry? What's the point?" Jiang Shouyi murmured in his heart.
But everything finally went as he wished, Yan Slave's poison was cured! Get better!
It’s really because of Xue’er! Just like that, I couldn't detoxify the poison for more than two hours, and I was fine immediately.
But after coming, it was not that easy to leave. Xiangyun took him into the hall.
This was Yueqin's sleeping quarters. Even if Jiang Shouyi came, he could only kneel in the hall outside the warm tent.
"Xue'er is awake again. You can carry her down and feed her first. You don't need to worry about me here." This is Yue Qin talking to the nanny.
Jiang Shouyi heard the nanny walking out of the warm tent and Xueer's crying, but he didn't dare to look up.
"I told you, don't come back!" At this moment, Yueqin walked out of the checkout room and looked down at him coldly.
Jiang Shouyi lamented in his heart and kowtowed: "It's the villain's fault, but this child was poisoned. There is really nothing the villain can do."
"Poisoned?" Yueqin saw that Yan Nu's body was indeed purple and swollen, but the symptoms were very mild and had almost subsided.
"It's the medicine bottle Cheng Tianhu carried. My grandson accidentally swallowed it." Jiang Shouyi took out the medicine bottle.
Xiangyun stepped forward to take it, and frowned as soon as he smelled it: "Wu Shi Powder?"
Yueqin was shocked: "Such a young child, if he doesn't have immortal bones, he can't even touch them!"
Jiang Shouyi didn't know what fairy bones were, so he kept saying: "The villain didn't pay attention for a moment, and Yan Nu got a little bit of it... The villain knew that he shouldn't come back, but there was really no other way..."
Xiang Yun said angrily: "Just find a doctor! I told you to stay far away, and you dare to come back. If you are targeted by someone with intentions in the house... I might as well kill you now!"
However, Yueqin held Xiangyun down and said with a little guilt: "Ah... it was my oversight and I forgot to give you some money..."
Only then did she remember that they were here to sell the baby. The old man was a victim of the disaster and was probably penniless already. She accepted her granddaughter without giving her a penny or a grain of food!
They just said to spare his life and let him fly away, but how far can he go? Might as well just kill him.
And thinking of this, Yue Qin felt relieved... If you want to blackmail someone, it's just an angry talk.
No matter how brave this old man is, he doesn't dare to come back and blackmail people just because he has mastered this secret.
If you think about it carefully, anyone in their right mind would know that he came back to seek death.
But this old man came back without hesitation. He only came back to ask for help because his grandson was accidentally poisoned and he had no other choice. He wanted to exchange his own life for his grandson's. He was also a caring person who was not afraid of death.
This is important because it means that Jiang Shouyi will protect this secret to the death even for Xue'er.
"Xiangyun, give him five hundred strings."
"Listen, Jiang Shouyi, this is the last time, I don't want to see you again."
"From now on, her name is Zhu Yanxue, and she is my daughter!"
…
