Poor Lady Chapter 53: Short life phase
Qi Surong woke up from the coma, only feeling a splitting headache and shortness of breath.
Qi's mother was taking care of her, her face full of distress.
"Mother, when did you come? How is the family?" Qi Surong asked dryly.
"Everything is fine at home, you don't have to worry." Mother Qi replied while feeding water, "I have been here for three days, you have been groggy, your injuries are not healed, and you have a sudden illness, doctor It is fortunate that the treatment is timely, otherwise it will be dangerous."
Qi Surong smiled and said, "Daughter is lucky."
Qi's mother scolded: "You are still smiling, and you have lost a lot of weight. Your appearance is the most important thing. Now that you look like this, I'm afraid it's not easy to go out to meet people."
"Oh?" Qi Surong touched his face, "It's ugly? Mother, please bring me a mirror."
"Why do you look in the mirror? It's important to get well first." Qi's mother was a little worried that she would be sad to see herself haggard.
"It's okay, my daughter won't be upset just because she's a little sick." Qi Surong pushed her mother, "Mother, please."
"Okay." Qi's mother would never refute Qi Surong's intentions, and quickly fetched the mirror.
Qi Surong took a look in the mirror, a pale face with dry lips was reflected in the mirror, his cheeks were thin, and there were a few shallow scars on his chin and neck.
"Heh." Qi Surong suddenly laughed.
Mother Qi was taken aback and asked nervously, "Daughter, are you okay?"
"I'm fine, I just think it's good to be alive." Although his body is weak, his mood is clear. She believed that as long as she crossed this section, she would have a brighter future.
"Miss." At this time, Ping'er walked in and said happily, "You finally woke up."
"Yeah." Qi Surong nodded towards her.
Ping'er handed over a letter and said with a smile, "This is from Mr. Gu."
Qi's mother said beside him: "Speaking of Mr. Gu, it's really good. Since you were imprisoned, the business of Yunrongxiu Village has plummeted, and we have to help you take care of it, and the family is getting more and more difficult. If it weren't for his generosity Get rid of the bag, your father and I may not be able to support it long ago."
Qi Surong smiled, but did not tell her that in fact, she earned the money herself, and both the Gu family wine cellar and the textile workshop had her share. She opened the letter, and Gu Jinyun's letter was as concise as ever.
I haven't seen you for a long time, I miss you very much, how is your health? You are recuperating in Fengzhan's other hospital, so it is inconvenient to visit you. The matter of Cao Xiang will be resolved in a short time, and we will wait for the good news. cloud stay.
Qi Surong asked: "Mother, is there any news from the Cao family?"
Qi's mother shook her head: "I've been taking care of you here, I don't know what's going on."
Ping'er said: "The servant has heard some news."
"Oh? Let's hear it."
"I heard that Cao Xiang encountered robbers on the way out of Beijing and was seriously injured. Fortunately, a few descendants from aristocratic families passed by, rescued him, and invited a genius doctor to treat him." Ping'er was in high spirits. Said, "Unfortunately, Cao Xiang's life was saved, but his right hand was disabled. However, the children of the aristocratic family and the genius doctor can all prove that Cao Xiang's eyes are fine."
Qi Surong said with a smile: "So, my affairs have turned around?"
"Definitely." Ping'er nodded, "Since his eyes are fine, the lady poisoning him is a false accusation."
"That's great." Mother Qi said pleasantly, "I knew my daughter would never harm anyone."
Qi Surong didn't want Gu Jinyun to join in at first, but he didn't expect that he would find a way to find a few descendants of aristocratic families and a genius doctor as witnesses, and also crippled Cao Xiang's hand by the way.
A few days later, Qi Surong's condition gradually improved, and the injury on his leg also recovered a lot, and occasionally he was able to go for a walk with Ping'er's support.
Feng Zhan's other courtyard has a quiet environment and an exquisite layout. Although the area is not large, it is very suitable for people to live in.
Qi Surong was sitting in the gazebo, embroidering the beautiful scenery on the silk, and the breeze brushed over her face, bringing up a few bundles of blue silk. The fingers shuttled, one stitch at a time, one movement and one stillness, with a suitable demeanor.
Feng Zhan walked slowly, not daring to disturb him, and stared at him bewilderedly.
When Qi Surong changed lines, he accidentally saw him, and immediately stood up to greet him: "Brother Feng."
"Your foot injury is still unhealed, so you don't need to get up." Feng Zhan hurried over and held her arm.
Qi Surong poured him a cup of tea and said with a smile, "Thank you Brother Feng for taking care of me these days."
"You don't need to say thank you." Feng Zhan picked up the embroidery she put on the table and praised, "The embroidery is so beautiful, if it is finished, can you give it to me?"
"Of course, as long as Brother Feng doesn't dislike it."
"How can you dislike it? Surong's embroidery is hard to find in the capital."
Qi Surong said with a light smile: "After this incident, I'm afraid no one will ask for it."
"Don't worry too much. The name of National Embroidery Master is bestowed by the emperor, and it is by no means comparable to ordinary names. After this incident, it will surely regain its glory."
"Brother Chengfeng has a good word."
"That's right." Feng Zhan said again, "Have you heard about Miss Luo's family?"
"Miss Luo, what's wrong with her?"
Feng Zhan said with a smile: "Thanks to you, the Luo family and the Dongyuan Houfu have broken off their engagement."
Qi Surong said in surprise, "The engagement was broken so soon?"
"Yes." Feng Zhan seemed to find it quite funny, and said in a teasing tone, "After hearing what you said that day, Miss Luo immediately sent someone to investigate the situation of the young master, and it turned out that the young master was in poor health. Good, you must supplement it with soup and medicine every day. Ms. Luo was afraid that she would become a widow if you said it, so she refused the marriage of the young master without hesitation."
"I would like to congratulate that young master, he escaped."
"Haha, you're bloodless, you ruined their good marriage with just a few words." Feng Zhan shook his head and said, "I didn't expect that Miss Luo's temper to be so flamboyant, this matter could have been resolved privately, However, she made a lot of noise, which caused the Hou family to lose face, and the relationship between the two families became quite embarrassing, and the reputation of the young master was also affected. Now it is rumored in the capital that he is ill, and he is short-lived."
"It's because I didn't think carefully." Qi Surong was thoughtful.
"You don't have to worry, this matter has nothing to do with you, it's Miss Luo who doesn't know how to advance or retreat."
"Luo Yanyi is not someone who is willing to suffer." Qi Surong said slowly, "I guess she will definitely put the blame on me, after all, I told her about the little lord."
Feng Zhan's expression froze.
Sure enough, as Qi Surong expected, Luo Yanyi was scolded by her family, and she felt unhappy, and began to spread everywhere that Qi Surong was the one who cursed the young master for his short life. Marquis Dongyuan has only one son, and he has always regarded him as his life, but now he heard that someone dared to curse his short life, how could he not be angry? The Qi family had never had any contact with the Hou Mansion, but they became hostile because of a few words. Although the Luo family's resignation made them angry, but Qi Surong's cruel words made them even more angry.
A few days later, Qi Surong's case could have been successfully reversed, but it was delayed again and again because of the interference of the Hou Fu. She is recovering from her injuries and will soon be sent back to prison. This time, even if Luo Yanyi didn't make a move, the people in the Hou Mansion probably wouldn't spare her lightly. The Dongyuanhou Mansion is not only a noble family, but also holds great power and a high status. Killing a prisoner is just a matter of moving a finger, and other noble families don't even say a word.
Taiwei Mansion.
Luo Yanyi said to Liu Qian'er: "This method is really good, it angered the Hou family, let's see how she, Qi Surong, can escape this time."
Liu Qian'er fiddled with the glazed beads on the plate, her eyes said coldly: "It's your own fault."
"That's right." Luo Yanyi said angrily, "If she hadn't talked too much, how could my marriage have failed?"
Liu Qian'er glanced at her, and said softly: "If you don't want to miss this marriage, why did you want to divorce? Even if the young master is really dying soon, at least the power of the Hou family can become a part of your Luo family." Great help."
"Hmph." Luo Yanyi slapped the table and said, "How can I, Luo Yanyi, marry a short-lived ghost? Let me be a widow and dream!"
Liu Qian'er narrowed her eyes, changed the subject and said: "Qi Surong is very lucky and has noble people to help, this time she was sent to prison with great difficulty, and she must not be allowed to escape again."
Luo Yanyi smiled and said, "You seem to hate her more than I do? Is it because of Lord Feng?"
Liu Qian'er was silent.
"Actually, you don't have to worry at all." Luo Yanyi mocked, "With Qi Surong's current status, she and Feng Zhan are absolutely impossible. If you really like him, you should take the initiative."
"How to take the initiative?" Liu Qian'er said lazily, "He doesn't even look at me."
"Then use some other means." Luo Yan leaned close to her and smiled, "Didn't he often come to the Taiwei's Mansion to look for your brother? While he is staying overnight, you..."
Luo Yanyi said in a low voice, Liu Qian'er's face turned red when she heard it, and she refused: "I, Liu Qian'er, will never do such low/low things that lower my status."
"How can it be a low/low thing?" Luo Yanyi said disapprovingly, "As long as the plan is more careful, he will definitely not see the flaws. Isn't it once and for all to let things happen naturally?"
"Don't say it again, I won't do this kind of thing."
"Very well, it's up to you." Luo Yanyi smiled meaningfully, she dared to do what Qian'er dared not to do...
On the day Qi Surong was sent back to prison, the Hou Mansion welcomed a middle-aged man with an ugly face.
"Who are you?" The servant asked.
"Jiang Yao."
"Is there a greeting card?"
"None."
"Sorry, the Hou Mansion does not entertain the unknown."
"Jiang is a traveling doctor, and has some experience in some difficult and miscellaneous diseases. I wonder if the young master would let me take a look?"
When Jia Ding heard the words, his complexion softened a little, and he said, "You wait for a while, I will report right away."
A moment later, Jiang Yao was brought into the Hou Mansion. After Dong Yuanhou inquired a bit, he took him to see a doctor for the young master.
After Jiang Yao's diagnosis, he only said three words: "It can be cured."
Dongyuan Hou was overjoyed and asked him to live in the Hou's mansion and promised him a lot of money.
Jiang Yao only accepted half of it, and said: "Master Hou, Jiang seldom treats rich and noble people. The reason why he came here this time was entrusted by Miss Qi's family. Thank her."
"Her?" Dong Yuanhou looked surprised.
A few days ago, after Qi Surong heard from Feng Zhan that Luo Yanyi had retired, she immediately wrote a letter of divorce and asked Gu Jinyun to help find a miracle doctor named "Jiang Yao". Good young master who has old illnesses.
Perhaps due to luck, the genius doctor she was looking for happened to be the person Gu Jinyun had invited to testify for her, so there was a visit to Jiang Yaohou's mansion for consultation.
However, in order to please Jiang Yao, Gu Jinyun spent a lot of thought and wasted some time. Qi Surong was sent back to prison, and when Jiang Yao was seeing a doctor, a crisis was imminent.
