Jinyi Spring

Chapter 47: Life is cheap (please vote for more)
Wen Shu looked towards the ceiling of the bed again.

Although Mr. Shangguan is a man of both talent and virtue, upright and open-minded, he can never help thinking about her day and night. As long as he has a place for her in his heart, that's enough.

In fact, she also hoped that Master Shangguan would only love her, but she knew that was absolutely impossible.

The nurse snorted. Previously, she thought Miss Feng was very capable, generous, and knew the importance of things. Now it seems that she is still short-sighted. After all, she is just a country girl.

All men who are fickle have real abilities. What kind of abilities can a man who doesn't even dare to think about a woman have? A man without ability is meaningless no matter how devoted he is.

She was afraid that her daughter would be affected, so she pouted and said, "Miss Feng is young, so there are some things that cannot be said. Life is very hard, and Doctor Feng has survived, but it must have been very hard."

Feng Chuchen just smiled.

A woman who has nothing to do thinks her life is very long. But if she devotes herself to her career like my aunt, she won't feel that her life is that long.

For example, in her previous life, more than thirty years passed by in a flash amidst the busyness.

Wen Shu added, "I do know a few men who don't think about you day and night. Some of them are princes-in-law. It's not that they don't think about you day and night, but they dare not think about you.

"The other one is the old Duke Dingguo. He really doesn't think about anything day and night. He has only had one woman in his life, Madam Ming. Madam Ming is valued by the Emperor and the Empress Dowager, and is cared for by her husband all her life. She is also rich and prosperous all her life. She is the envy of all women."

The nurse said, "Although Madam Ming is not a princess, she is also a princess. She is even more valued by the late emperor and Empress Shengde than the princess. Which woman can compare with her..."

Not to mention this country girl.

Feng Chuchen suddenly realized that old lady Ming was the winner in life.

After breakfast the next day, Feng Chuchen went to give Wen Shu acupuncture.

On the way, I heard the two girls in front of me talking in a low voice.

"Do you think Mr. Shangguan will come to attend the young lady's third-day baptism banquet today?"

"He is the fourth lady's fiancé, he will definitely come."

"It's a pity that he is in the outer courtyard and we can't see him. Everyone says that Master Shangguan is extremely handsome, but I haven't seen him yet."

"I want to see it, too. Maybe he'll come to the inner courtyard to watch the ceremony, and then we'll be able to see it."

"Okay, okay. Let's go to Tingfeng Pavilion at noon and wait for it and take a look from afar."

The sound faded away.

The man who could make the little girl want to see him so much and whose surname was Shangguan, Feng Chuchen intuitively felt that he was Shangguan Ruyu, the most handsome man in Dayan.

Although the Wuyi Marquis's House was a noble family, it was of low rank, and the head of the family did not hold a very high position. However, Princess Yanghe was the emperor's elder sister, and Shangguan was a marquis, and both of them were favored by the emperor.

With such a reputation, Shangguan Ruyu couldn't possibly marry a girl of equal status, so he could only look for a girl from a family of lower status...

No wonder the Wen family is so anxious to cure Wen Shu's illness. Shangguan Ruyu is the only son. Only by giving birth to a son can Wen Shu's life in her husband's family be better, and the Wen family can get what they want.

They did not dare to invite the imperial physician who was good at gynecology. Even if the imperial physician was tight-lipped, they were afraid that others would think too much of the imperial physician who was good at gynecology, who often went in and out of Wu Yibo's mansion.

In order to climb up the social ladder, she kept this matter a secret. If Wen Shu's disease could not be cured and she did not give birth to the child her parents-in-law expected, one could imagine what her future would be like.

When a wealthy family marries, they never consider whether their children are happy, but whether they are useful to the family...

Wen Shu was very different today, with a smile on her lips and spring in her eyes, making her even more charming and attractive than usual.

There were beautiful clothes, already pressed, hanging on two hangers in the bedroom, and the dressing table was filled with rouge, powder and jewelry.

As soon as the injection is finished, I will quickly get ready and dress up.

Feng Chuchen didn't say much and just gave her acupuncture and moxibustion.

The little girl always felt that time was passing too slowly, and she kept asking, "Isn't it fifteen minutes later? Why hasn't it arrived yet?"

Feng Chuchen was secretly happy, this is a little girl in love.

Finally, the silver needle was pulled out, and Tang Shu hurriedly ran to sit down beside the dressing table.

Feng Chuchen packed up his things and left.

Feng Buji and Aunt Wang were already dressed. Feng Chuchen came back, covered Feng Buji's mouth and nose with his scarf, and the three of them went to the side door.

The mansion is strictly managed. Even if Feng Chuchen and his companions want to go out, they have to have a maid to open the door for them.

The streets were bustling with people, the hawkers' cries were heard everywhere, and there were monkey shows.

Feng Buji was very interested.

He squeezed into the crowd and watched the monkey show for half an hour, throwing three cents into the straw hat held by the monkey.

After coming out, he looked at the candied haws a few more times. Feng Chuchen smiled and said, "Wait a little longer, you can eat one next year."

Feng Buji laughed and said, "When I grow up to ten years old, can I eat a whole bunch of it?"

"You don't have to wait until you're ten, you can be eight."

They walked from east to west, and went into shops to buy some food and daily necessities.

Afterwards we went to Xu Ji Baozi Shop to eat buns.

The few of them played until the beginning of the afternoon before returning to the Wuyi Earl's Mansion with great interest.

The next day, after Feng Chuchen gave Wen Shu acupuncture, Wen Shu agreed to pick him up next time she had her period.

Wen Shu gave her a set of rouge and powder, and a set of combs.

Feng Chuchen went to say goodbye to Grandma Wen again.

She felt the pulse of Grandma Wen and the little girl, and said with a smile, "Grandma and Sister are both in good health..."

Grandma Wen smiled and said, "Miss Feng is an excellent doctor. She will definitely be more successful than Doctor Feng in the future."

Two maids presented a pair of silver bracelets with auspicious clouds and two pieces of silk.

She smiled and said, "This is my thanks to Miss Feng."

Then he pointed to a large basket and said, "This is a gift from the mansion to Miss Feng."

The big basket was filled with four cans of tea, snacks and brown sugar.

Is this a thank you gift or hush money?

Feng Chuchen didn't like the hush money, but he had to accept it.

It is not easy to completely refuse to be coerced.

The two maids carried their belongings to the outer courtyard, where a carriage was already waiting at the corner gate.

I returned to Baima Village at the beginning of the day.

It was still bustling outside the Feng family's gate, and the craftsmen were busy.

They all smiled and greeted Feng Chuchen and his sister, "Miss Feng and Master Feng are back."

Feng Buji got out of the car and took out some snacks to treat the craftsmen.

In the middle of winter, the weather was cold and the construction of the archway was temporarily suspended. It will not resume until the end of next January when the weather warms up.

On the morning of the fourth day of the twelfth lunar month, Zhao Chunjiang hurried to find Aunt Wang. "My wife started having a seizure in the middle of the night and was in severe pain. My mother said it was a difficult birth. Please help with the delivery."

Aunt Wang quickly took Shaoyao away.

The baby was in an abnormal fetal position and we tried every possible means to deliver him at the beginning of the next day at 3 p.m.

It was a baby girl, with the umbilical cord wrapped around her neck, her body was blue and purple, and she was only breathing her last.

Aunt Wang sighed, "It's pitiful. My daughter knows pediatric medicine. Let's get her here right away. Maybe the baby can still be saved."

Zhao Chunjiang's mother asked, "Does Feng charge for treating illnesses?"

Aunt Wang was stunned for a moment, but still said, "We need to collect some."

She looked at the baby in her arms again. It weighed only four pounds, and its little belly rose and fell, and it was obvious that it was breathing out more than it was breathing in.

I can't bear it.

He added, "It's not much, just a hundred or so copper coins."

It's not that she has to accept the money. If she says no, the family really won't give it to her. They are all fellow villagers, so who will the girl accept and who won't? The girl can't be manipulated by others like the elder sister.

Zhao Chunjiang's mother curled her lips.

Zhao Chunjiang's father heard it from outside the window and asked, "A boy or a girl?"

Zhao Chunjiang's mother said, "You little girl, you are as thin as a cat."

Zhao Chunjiang's father snorted coldly, "He is so weak that he won't grow up even if he is saved. It's a waste of money. My daughter-in-law is strong, so we can have another child next year."

After hearing this, Zhao Chunjiang's mother threw the baby into a pile of grass nearby.
