Chapter 4
Walking to the door of the east courtyard, I heard Liu Zhang's annoying voice coming from the back room. The corners of Yongheng's lips curled up with a hint of sarcasm, and he walked inside again.
"Are you feeling better, husband?" As soon as he entered the room, Changheng asked with concern on his face.
Lying on the bed, the man with a withered face had a smile on his face when he heard her voice.
Just as he was about to talk, he was overtaken by the woman sitting next to him, "What? You didn't see the existence of my mother-in-law? You didn't even know to say hello when you came in? Did you take my mother-in-law seriously?
?ā
Seeing her beautiful face, Ms. Liu Zhang became very angry.
If Qing'er hadn't taken a fancy to her back then, she would have been the only one. The Liu family would never have welcomed her in. She married a virtuous woman and had a charming face, so she was only qualified to be a concubine.
"Mom, I misunderstood. My daughter-in-law is just worried about her husband..." At this point, she lowered her head in grievance.
"Mom, don't blame Heng'er, she cares too much about me." Hearing this, Liu Qing's smile deepened a little, but it looked particularly scary on his face that didn't have much flesh.
Being stared at by such a face all the time, with such self-righteous affection, goosebumps all over Yongyang's body fell all over the place.
Mrs. Liu and Zhang couldn't bear to see her son defend her. As the old saying goes, when you marry a daughter-in-law, you forget your mother.
She couldn't bear to blame her son, so she could only blame the woman who took away her son, "Where did you die early in the morning? Didn't you see that your man was not feeling well? I don't know if Hou was waiting in front of the bed or not.
There was no figure..."
Harsh words kept coming out of Liu Zhang's mouth, and Yongheng really wanted to sew her mouth shut. It was a pity that she couldn't alert the snake for the sake of her next plan.
"Daughter-in-law... went to prepare medicine for her husband, so..." Yongheng's shoulders shook and he sobbed aggrievedly.
Liu Qing saw his beloved wife wiping away her tears and said hurriedly: "Mom, please stop talking."
He stretched out his hand not far away, "Heng'er, come here quickly and let me take a look at you."
The closer to the end of his life, the more reluctant he was to let her leave, even if it was just to cook medicine for a while.
The pungent smell of the decoction made Yongheng frown slightly.
When she reached the bed, before she could speak, someone grabbed her hand.
"Heng'er, don't do that kind of rough work in the future. Just stay with me obediently." Liu Qing's thin, almost bone-like hands grasped the woman in front of her tightly, as if she was afraid of her.
Just like running away.
Liu Qing has sunken eyes and is skinny. Years of being bedridden has tortured Liu Qing to the point of losing her appearance.
But he is such a pitiful man who can cruelly and selfishly force his wife to death just to have a companion on the road to hell.
Such cruel people cannot be sympathized with.
Poor people must be hateful, which may not be true for others, but it is very appropriate for Liu Qing.
"Young madam, the medicine is ready." The little maid who had taken the hot medicine before now walked in with the decoction.
Chang Yong wanted to withdraw his hand, but the other party held on tightly, "Husband, drink the medicine while it's hot. I'll give you the medicine."
After hearing this, Liu Qing withdrew her hand.
Enduring Liu Zhang's eccentric criticism and Liu Qing's affectionate gaze, Yongheng finally fed all the soup in the bowl into the stomach of the sick man.
The maid took the medicine bowl, and just as Yongheng was about to get up and leave together, her hand was tightened again.
"Heng'er, where are you going?"
"Husband, I just want to pour you a glass of water to moisten your throat and get rid of the medicinal smell in your mouth." Yongheng smiled tenderly at him.
Liu Qing was relieved.
I walked to the table and poured a glass of water. At that moment, a straight and tall body walked in.
"Auntie, eldest brother." Liu Jing glanced at the woman holding water at the table without leaving any trace, and then walked to the bedside to greet him with concern, "Brother, is your health feeling better?"
"Much better." Liu Qing's expression returned to the half-dead look before, and her tone was light.
When Mrs. Liu Zhang saw Liu Jing's words becoming more harsh, "Why are you back? Do you want to see my young son die..." At this point, Ms. Liu Zhang was shocked and made a mistake again.
God please forgive me.
Afterwards, he said sarcastically, "You are here to seize the family property. Let me tell you, no matter how my young children are, it is not your turn to inherit the Liu family's property."
There was a dark look in Liu Jing's eyes, and he said: "Auntie has misunderstood. My nephew is only worried about his health, so he came back to see me. That's right."
He reached out and took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Mrs. Liu Zhang, "My uncle asked my nephew to give it to you."
Mrs. Liu Zhang took the letter, but her face was still ugly.
"The letter has been brought, so my nephew left first." Liu Jing turned around and walked out, but he kept watching the beautiful figure from the corner of his eyes.
"Heng'er, come here quickly." Liu Qing urged when he saw Yongheng standing beside the table for a long time.
Hearing the man on the bed calling this name, the stalwart figure walking out paused, and clenched his hands tightly under his sleeves.
Eternal endured his disgust and walked towards the bed with the teacup in hand.
"Hmph! This old man only knows how to make money by doing business, and he doesn't care about his son's condition at all." After the outsiders left, Mrs. Liu Zhang opened the envelope, quickly glanced at the contents of the letter, and slammed the table hard in anger.
He was so frightened that Yongheng's body shook as he walked to the bedside, and the warm tea in his hand spilled directly onto the back of his delicate hand.
"Heng'er, how are you?" His beloved wife was injured, which made Liu Qing feel distressed. He carefully checked Yongheng's injuries and was relieved when he saw nothing was wrong. "Mom, could you please lower your voice?" he said in a tone of voice.
With complaints.
Mrs. Liu Zhang was reluctant to reprimand her son, so she could only coax her carefully, "It's my fault, my fault." She said this, but her eyes stared at the beautiful woman standing beside her as if they were poisoned.
Eternal lowered his head and remained silent.
"Mom, you are also angry with your father. I have written to him several times before, asking him to hurry up and send people to Jiangnan to find a miracle doctor. But your father doesn't take it seriously, and now he wants to send Liu Jing with a blank look.
Go wolf, Iām really pissed off.ā
Liu Jing was so ambitious that he always cared about the Liu family's property. He wished that Qing'er would die early so that he could inherit the family business smoothly.
This time the master asked him to go to the south of the Yangtze River to look for the miracle doctor. There is no guarantee that he will not do anything. If the miracle doctor is really bribed by him, then Qing'er will be in danger.
Mrs. Liu Zhang thought about it several times, trying hard to think of a solution.
But Liu Qing kept holding on to his beloved wife's hand and didn't let go, not caring about these things at all.
He is a dying man, so he still cares about the family property. Even if the Liu family is ruined, it has nothing to do with him.
"Okay, mother, please go out quickly. I'm tired." He just wanted to spend more time with his beloved wife and didn't want other people to disturb him.
Mrs. Liu Zhang responded with a loving face: "Okay, mother, I will leave now and won't disturb your rest."
After finishing his words, he glared at Zhao Yongheng again and said, "Serve Qing'er well." He turned around and left.
Yongheng also wanted to take the opportunity to leave this medicine-smelling house, but the extremely possessive man kept holding her hand and wouldn't let go.
