Chapter 166
The doctor was invited into Shen's mansion overnight.
Shen Yanhan felt weak all over, so she was helped to sit up and the doctor took her pulse.She took a look at Shen Guci who came to her room, but she didn't see Wen Rong, who always loved doing face-saving things in front of Shen Guci. She was surprised and closed her eyes weakly.
However, soon, she knew the reason.
Shen Guci's face was ashen, he didn't want his birthday to end like this. Apart from him, the three juniors Shen Yanhan, Shen Hui, Shen Yu and Wen Rong all had unstoppable abdominal pain, vomiting and diarrhea.
He tried his best to control his expression and asked the doctor who came: "Doctor Li, what disease do these people have? How is the little girl's unborn child? Is it important?"
Doctor Li had just come from Wen Rong and other places. He still had a serious face and did not reply to Shen Guci's question. Instead, he asked first: "Perhaps you can allow me to check what I have eaten today?"
Hearing "eat", Shen Yanhan opened his eyes and turned pale.
An ominous premonition arose in her heart.
After hearing Shen Guci, she immediately ordered her personal staff: "Go to the kitchen and bring dinner!"
While waiting for dinner, Shen Guci, who had nothing to do, could only remain silent with the doctor. He glanced at Shen Yanhan's bulging abdomen, frowned worriedly, and comforted her: "Doctor Li has superb medical skills. Now that everyone is here, I will definitely cure you soon, so don’t worry."
Shen Yanhan followed his gaze and looked at her belly, her heart tightening.
In that ominous premonition, it seemed that there was suddenly a little more inspiration.
She looked at Shen Guyi expressionlessly, raised her hand to cover her belly gently, and said harsh words without any courtesy: "I have vomiting and diarrhea for no reason, does Dad think it's normal? What if someone in this family dares to murder me? Heir, when I find out the truth, I will fight her to the death!"
Shen Guci was dissatisfied with her speaking so openly in front of outsiders, and scolded: "What nonsense are you talking about? Who harmed you? What kind of day is it today, and you are just talking nonsense like this."
Doctor Li on the side took another look at Shen Yanhan's abdomen and frowned.
Shen Yanhan stopped paying attention to Shen Gu Ci.
She leaned back slightly and said, "Hibiscus, come and wipe my sweat."
Hibiscus, who always knew her best, held the handkerchief and stepped forward to wipe her sweat.
With Hibiscus blocking Shen Guci's sight, Shen Yanhan put her lips close to Hibiscus's ear and breathed out a few words: "Please come quickly, Mr. Cai."
Hibiscus blinked to show understanding.
After wiping Shen Yanhan's sweat, she stepped away, carried the basin out of the door, and immediately secretly ordered people to go to Qingshui Village.
After a while, all the cups and plates filled with leftovers were sent into the room.
Shen Yanhan glanced at it and saw that the leftovers were still in the original containers, as if they were ready for inspection, and felt a little heavy.
In the past, she would not have been so sensitive and keen, but now that Qin Yuehuai was being targeted for no reason and someone wanted to marry her into Prime Minister Qin's Mansion as a concubine, she had to be more vigilant and guard against others.
This is also the reason why she wants to make more money and buy back the house she sold next to Tingfeng Teahouse as soon as possible.
After all, since she ran away from home and experienced all these things, she no longer thinks that she and these people are really a family.
After carefully inspecting it, Doctor Li asked Shen Guci: "May I ask Shen Siye, have your wife and your daughter-in-law drank this fruit wine? But Shen Siye has not."
Shen Yanhan couldn't believe it when he heard that Wen Rong also had the same symptoms.
Shen Guci nodded solemnly, "But is there a problem?"
Dr. Li: "I just checked it out, but I'm afraid there's something wrong with this wine..."
Shen Guci immediately asked: "What's the problem?"
Doctor Li replied: "Siye Shen, look at the powder next to the wine bottle. I have carefully identified it just now. It should be croton powder. It is not advisable to eat hot porridge, drink hot boiled water and other hot things when taking croton, so as not to aggravate diarrhea. , but everyone must have eaten hot food tonight, so it got out of hand."
Shen Guci had a stern face. It was not a glorious thing to have croton powder in the wine at his birthday party.
Dr. Li felt the gloomy atmosphere around him and said hurriedly: "This problem is not difficult to solve. Just take it cold with a decoction of coptis and phellodendron, or eat some cold porridge."
After hearing what Doctor Li said, Xia He, the female servant in Shen Yanhan's room, answered: "Fortunately, we have a few Coptis chinensis plants growing in our house. Sir, I will pick them and fry them for Madam and the others."
Shen Guci nodded and begged Doctor Li, "I would also like to trouble Doctor Li to wait in the guest room for a while, and then return home after my wife and the others' symptoms have stabilized a bit."
Doctor Li: "That's how it should be."
After Dr. Li left, Shen Guyi walked to the door of the room, summoned his closest person and ordered him to find out how the croton appeared in the wine pot.
Shen Yanhan looked at his father coolly with cold eyes.
To be fair, Shen Guyi was handsome and tall, with the appearance of a typical handsome young man. Because he had been a student of the Imperial College for many years, he had developed an aura of indifference and arrogance all over his body.
Looking at him this way, he is indeed a very outstanding gentleman.
But Shen Yanhan curled his lips, feeling really alienated from his father.
So what if he has outstanding appearance?No matter how respected and respected by outsiders, no matter how good your knowledge is, so what?As a husband, he would take concubines as soon as he became successful, and he would even let down his wife who was in trouble and trample on his wife's emotions. What could she admire about him?
As a father, he treats one favorably and favors the other. Even after her mother Qi Yun passed away, he did not show her much tenderness. Most of his kindness and patience were given to his new son. She was asked to treat such a father. I love him in my heart and my eyes, but Shen Guci doesn't have such charm.
In addition, Mrs. Shen felt angry because of this and that.
Thinking about herself, isn't there another white-eyed wolf man beside her?Although he said that he kept his name anonymous for a reason, even though his life experience was indeed tragic, even though he was indeed a talented person, even though... even though...
She raised her lips in self-mockery: There are thousands of reasons, but they shouldn’t be the reason why he lied to her from the beginning to the end!
Her previous hopes were too high, and her vision for the future was too beautiful. Once her dreams were shattered, she would rather forget the person she once dreamed about.
Madam Shen clenched her fists and punched her sideways.
An unexpected punch shocked Shen Guyi, who had just walked back to her side after giving instructions.
When he heard the sound, he saw his eldest daughter looking at him with a cold expression and anger in her eyes, as if he was the one who gave her chin beans.
Shen Guci scowled and scolded her: "Why are you acting like this? Do you suspect that the person who murdered your child is not a father?"
She was originally angry with Qin Yuehuai, with all the emotions on her face. She didn't want her father to see her and make him misunderstand that this emotion was directed at him. Shen Yanhan looked away, lowered her eyes, and said, "No."
Shen Guyi: "It's best not to have any! Don't be blind to whoever treats you sincerely."
His words were preaching as always, but if you listened carefully, you could feel a sense of sour grievance secretly.
After he said it, Shen Guci also realized that Shen Yanhan had run away from home because of Qi Yun's incident. Maybe he was getting older and his desire to cherish the lively atmosphere in this home was slowly increasing. Recently, he She became more and more cautious in front of Shen Yanhan.
Hearing the words "sincerely", Shen Yanhan was also surprised and raised his eyes to look at Shen Gu Ci.
The lights in the room were dim, and Shen Yanhan's bright eyes were shining. The lamp flickered slightly, and her eyes were flowing and sparkling, while her bright face was covered with sweat and her face was pale. She looked very weak and pitiful. , Shen Guci's heartstrings moved.
He coughed and said in a slow and gentle voice: "Don't you think that marrying a father privately will make you angry at others? It's a done deal, and being a father can tear you apart?"
"It's just that Qin Qilang is too shameless. He went back to his hometown when he said he would. You work so hard with a big belly. Not only can he not be able to help at all, but he has no trust at all. Who wouldn't say that he is this Abandoning his wife and son? You're the only one who thinks he's coming back..." Shen Yanhan retorted: "No! I didn't think he would come back. If he doesn't come back, he won't come back. I can live a good life on my own. of."
Anyway, "Qin Yuehuai" was a fake. Now that "Qi Yan" came out, the Qin Yuehuai she knew has disappeared from this world. She just thought it was a dream and woke up when she woke up. , she will not live in a dream.
"It's best if you think so." Shen Guci said happily. Seeing her fingers stroking her belly, he added, "You can't be too worried about raising children. You don't have to work in the shop every day to be a father." You can still receive your salary after serving in the Imperial College for one day. It is not a big deal for the Shen family to support another person. It doesn’t matter that he does not bear the responsibility as a father, the Shen family can do this for him..."
Madam Shen was originally really cruel and thought that she would not forgive the husband easily, but when Shen Guci said this to Qin Yuehuai, she became rebellious again and her heart turned to one side.
Qin Yuehuai didn't want to take responsibility!
From the first day of our reunion, the husband vowed, "I will be responsible for you, mother and son."Also, no matter how late he was off duty, he would always come to her shop.No matter how ridiculously high her asking price was, he seemed to enjoy it and immediately stamped it. Mu Jin was right. She was afraid that he would give away every cent of his salary...
Thinking of these, Shen Yanhan couldn't tell whether he should have a headache or be happy.
She didn't want to live in a dream, but the man wanted her not to wake up.
However, these are matters between her and him. She has her own ideas about this relationship. Although Shen Guci is her father, she does not need his advice. She does not like others' treatment of her at all. Talk about things.
Shen Yanhan stared at Shen Guci and suddenly interrupted him: "By saying so much, are you trying to convince me not to go out and make money?"
Shen Guci was stunned.
He stopped talking and his face turned cold.
To be honest, when Shen Yanhan went into business, he was a little disgraceful, especially when her business became more and more extensive, and even his colleagues praised his eldest daughter for her amazing business talent. After all, it was recognized by the society The status of "scholar, farmer, industry and businessman" is there, no matter how happy he is.
But he is not one of those stubborn and uncivilized people. The Qi family is a merchant. There is nothing wrong with Shen Yanhan, the grandson of the Qi family, to inherit the tradition and go into business. In addition, there is a strong atmosphere of doing business in the Zhou Dynasty, and even the officials encourage it. All kinds of people start businesses.
Shen Guyi said coldly: "If I want you not to go out to make money, why should I give you money to do business?"
Shen Yanhan looked at his cold expression and continued rebelliously: "Then do you know what I want to do after I make money?"
What else can be done?
Naturally, she bought back the dowry house that Qi Yun left to her and sold by her!
Then she moves out from here...
In an instant, Shen Guci remembered Qi Yun's decisive look when he left him, and also recalled the look of Shen Yanhan leaving home that day. The look in his eyes at Shen Yanhan became complicated, and he felt a hole in his heart, as if there was something there. He was losing it very quickly in a way that he couldn't avoid.
But Shen Guci didn't want to admit defeat.
With a proud look on his face, he said, "Father, I'll wait and see, wait for the day when you become the richest man in the Great Zhou Dynasty", rolled up his sleeves and left.
Like father, like son. In this regard, Shen Yanhan and he were carved out of the same mold. Listening to Shen Guci's nonchalant speech, Shen Yanhan raised his chin and shouted behind him: "You Just watch it carefully!"
Shen Guci shook his head behind her back and sighed. This eldest daughter has always been so stubborn.
*
At this moment, by the Huaihe River, looking in the direction of Lijiazhai, Qin Yuehuai, who Shen Gu said had "abandoned his wife and children", suddenly sneezed loudly, and he hurriedly covered his sleeves to apologize to his colleagues.
Colleagues asked with concern: "Are you afraid that Academician Qi is ill? You have been working so hard for days and it's time to take a rest. Go to bed quickly."
Qin Yuehuai said warmly: "It's not a problem, it's just a cool night. I'm going to help and work hard to strengthen the embankment, so as to prevent the second flood from overflowing and inundating more fertile fields."
The people who came together to provide relief did not know the second purpose of his coming here. After he left, they praised him and said to another person: "To say that Qi Zhuangyuan really comes from a poor family. He understands suffering and cannot see such a natural disaster. He is already the number one scholar and a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, yet he is still so hands-on in everything."
Another person sneered at this, "It means that he is young and has not experienced anything. If he is busy in such a disaster area every year, no matter how much energy he has, it will be worn away."
Qin Yuehuai listened to the discussion behind him and knew that the road ahead to change the atmosphere in the court was difficult, but his eyes became firmer.
*
Qin Yuehuai followed him to the Huaihe River for disaster relief. Among the disaster relief ministers, he was an inconspicuous figure. He did not need to participate in decision-making on many matters, so he had a lot of free time.And this was just as he wished. After all, he had another purpose of coming here, which was to explore Lijiazhai, which had been undefeated for many years.
Although Li Shen was gained and lost in his hands, he did not gain nothing.
For example, he was granted the status of Li Shen as the third head of the Li family village, and this was a breakthrough that he felt he could make.It is not easy for Lijiazhai to escape the control of the imperial court for a long time. Without the support from the rear, it would never be possible to stay here so tenaciously all year round.
Li Shen was blessed by the Wang family, so the Li family village probably relied on Li Shen's connections to survive.
So, in the final analysis, it is Qin Huichu who is now extremely powerful.
He personally joined the team carrying sandbags, and after a section of the embankment was reinforced, he returned to his tent.Late at night, he waited for Yang Dong who had infiltrated into the guard team.
Qin Yuehuai got straight to the point: "What did you find? Does Lijiazhai regularly send letters to Lin'an Mansion?"
Yang Dong nodded, "Yes."
Qin Yuehuai raised his lips, "Sent to Prime Minister Qin's Mansion?"
Yang Dong nodded again.
After some investigation, he confirmed his guess. Qin Yuehuai didn't have many surprises. He slowly put a perfunctorily knitted bracelet into the envelope and said: "You mix this letter with the letters sent to Li Jiazhai. Wait until Li Jiazhai." Once the leader of the family village leaves the village, he will ambush you on the way to Lin'an Mansion. Remember, you have to survive."
Yang Dong said seriously that his master finally got the opportunity to start planning and counterattack, and he couldn't help but get more energetic.
Yang Dong was about to retreat when Qin Yuehuai stopped him again and said with some confusion: "It's Shen Siye's birthday, do I need to give him a gift?" He had lived alone for many years and had no experience in getting along with his elders. How to please his father-in-law was really difficult for him. The door is unclear.
Yang Dong was stunned.
He looked at Qin Yuehuai with strange eyes and said calmly: "Master Lang, you are now at Qi Yan."
With a word that woke up the dreamer, Qin Yuehuai came back to his senses and smiled bitterly, "Go down."
The curtains of the tent were blown open by the river wind, and the stars in the sky were swaying. Qin Yuehuai bent down and walked out of the tent, facing the direction of An Mansion in the south, lost in thought.
When he first entered the official career, he had a heavy responsibility. He should have been full of ambitions for his future and should not have been obsessed with the love between his children, but now his heart was not under his control.
Whenever he is free, he has Shen Yanhan in his mind.
Shen Yanhan held his chin and kissed her directly as soon as she was drunk. Shen Yanhan walked towards him leisurely with her arms folded. Shen Yanhan raised her hands and danced freely under the flower tree. She called him loudly. Qilang's Shen Yanhan...
Thousands of delicate and charming, every frown and smile is like air, and it feels a little suffocating without her.
But now the reality is really not conducive to him. First of all, it is inconvenient for him to appear in the Shen Mansion all at once, but seeing Shen Yanhan staying away from him and not giving him any chance to get close, he often feels like a hundred claws are scratching his heart.
Qin Yuehuai stroked the red rope on his wrist and thought about his beloved little lady. He thought that when he returned to Lin'an Mansion, he would find a way to break through the bottleneck of his relationship with her.
He really missed her, wanted to touch her, hold her in his arms, be intimate with her...
But Qin Yuehuai didn't know that when he returned to Lin'an Mansion, he would be greeted by another challenge that was a thousand times more difficult than he expected.
Happy New Years babies!

The doctor was invited into Shen's mansion overnight.
Shen Yanhan felt weak all over, so she was helped to sit up and the doctor took her pulse.She took a look at Shen Guci who came to her room, but she didn't see Wen Rong, who always loved doing face-saving things in front of Shen Guci. She was surprised and closed her eyes weakly.

She leaned back slightly and said, "Hibiscus, come and wipe my sweat."

Although Li Shen was gained and lost in his hands, he did not gain nothing.
For example, he was granted the status of Li Shen as the third head of the Li family village, and this was a breakthrough that he felt he could make.It is not easy for Lijiazhai to escape the control of the imperial court for a long time. Without the support from the rear, it would never be possible to stay here so tenaciously all year round.
Li Shen was blessed by the Wang family, so the Li family village probably relied on Li Shen's connections to survive.
So, in the final analysis, it is Qin Huichu who is now extremely powerful.
He personally joined the team carrying sandbags, and after a section of the embankment was reinforced, he returned to his tent.Late at night, he waited for Yang Dong who had infiltrated into the guard team.
Qin Yuehuai got straight to the point: "What did you find? Does Lijiazhai regularly send letters to Lin'an Mansion?"
Yang Dong nodded, "Yes."
Qin Yuehuai raised his lips, "Sent to Prime Minister Qin's Mansion?"
Yang Dong nodded again.
After some investigation, he confirmed his guess. Qin Yuehuai didn't have many surprises. He slowly put a perfunctorily knitted bracelet into the envelope and said: "You mix this letter with the letters sent to Li Jiazhai. Wait until Li Jiazhai." Once the leader of the family village leaves the village, he will ambush you on the way to Lin'an Mansion. Remember, you have to survive."
Yang Dong said seriously that his master finally got the opportunity to start planning and counterattack, and he couldn't help but get more energetic.
Yang Dong was about to retreat when Qin Yuehuai stopped him again and said with some confusion: "It's Shen Siye's birthday, do I need to give him a gift?" He had lived alone for many years and had no experience in getting along with his elders. How to please his father-in-law was really difficult for him. The door is unclear.
Yang Dong was stunned.
He looked at Qin Yuehuai with strange eyes and said calmly: "Master Lang, you are now at Qi Yan."
With a word that woke up the dreamer, Qin Yuehuai came back to his senses and smiled bitterly, "Go down."
The curtains of the tent were blown open by the river wind, and the stars in the sky were swaying. Qin Yuehuai bent down and walked out of the tent, facing the direction of An Mansion in the south, lost in thought.
When he first entered the official career, he had a heavy responsibility. He should have been full of ambitions for his future and should not have been obsessed with the love between his children, but now his heart was not under his control.
Whenever he is free, he has Shen Yanhan in his mind.
Shen Yanhan held his chin and kissed her directly as soon as she was drunk. Shen Yanhan walked towards him leisurely with her arms folded. Shen Yanhan raised her hands and danced freely under the flower tree. She called him loudly. Qilang's Shen Yanhan...
Thousands of delicate and charming, every frown and smile is like air, and it feels a little suffocating without her.
But now the reality is really not conducive to him. First of all, it is inconvenient for him to appear in the Shen Mansion all at once, but seeing Shen Yanhan staying away from him and not giving him any chance to get close, he often feels like a hundred claws are scratching his heart.
Qin Yuehuai stroked the red rope on his wrist and thought about his beloved little lady. He thought that when he returned to Lin'an Mansion, he would find a way to break through the bottleneck of his relationship with her.
He really missed her, wanted to touch her, hold her in his arms, be intimate with her...
But Qin Yuehuai didn't know that when he returned to Lin'an Mansion, he would be greeted by another challenge that was a thousand times more difficult than he expected.
Happy New Years babies!
