Chapter 88 "It hurts...don't move!"

Because Jia Zhen is ill, Jia Rong is very busy these days. He has to receive many relatives and friends, imperial doctors, and monks every day. And because of Xia Jingui, he has rarely visited Wang Xifeng in the past few months, and he has no idea what the future is like.

Prince Xifeng actually invited Qin Zhong over for his birthday.

Jia Rong was more willing to trust Qin Zhong's guidance on many things. When she heard the news that Qin Zhong came to the house, she suddenly seemed to have found her backbone.

He hurriedly went to the front hall to greet him, and saw Qin Zhong looking for Lai Sheng in the front hall, asking about Uncle Zhen's condition.

At this time, he saw that Qin Zhong had a slender figure, a fair face and a handsome face, and was less childish than in the previous months.

After taking a look like this, I feel that Qin Zhong is more trustworthy.

"Jing Qing is here!" Jia Rong hurriedly stepped forward to greet him, took Qin Zhong's hand, and said sadly: "The day my uncle came over, I thought Jing Qing was also here. These days, I have no idea, and now I see you.

It’s a good idea to be distracted.”

Qin Zhongqi asked: "Is it already this serious?"

Jia Rong felt even sadder after hearing this. He nodded, pulled Qin Zhong to the side and said, "I don't know what the woman gave me to eat, but she let out a lot of urine that day, and even bleeded out in the end. Now I'm sleeping."

He sleeps more frequently than he does when he is awake, and cannot eat anything at all, making him very lean."

Qin Zhong's eyes rolled, and he wondered in his heart: Wasn't it Xia Jingui's fault?

He asked again: “Have you invited the imperial physician from the palace?”

Jia Rong sighed: "My master is the pillar of the family. Now that he is ill, how can I support the family alone? There is no reason not to invite the imperial doctor in the palace, whether it is the wandering imperial physician or the doctor selling goods."

Many gentlemen from various families have been here, and after looking at them one by one, they found nothing suitable."

Is there such a thing?

Qin Zhong glanced at Jia Rong suspiciously. Is it possible that someone saw the disease but was too embarrassed to talk about it? Or was it that Jia Rong knew about the disease but didn't want to tell anyone about it?

He asked: "What happened to the woman?"

Jia Rong said angrily: "That woman didn't want to say anything. It was only after my daughter-in-law pressed her that I found out. The woman had been recuperating the master for a few days. She used the kidney-tonifying medicine commonly used in Jiangnan, but I don't know whether the prescription was wrong or not.

The pharmacy took it by mistake. Now the people at the pharmacy also ordered someone to lock it up, but the woman suddenly fell into a well the next day."

As Jia Rong spoke, she began to cry again. Although Jia Zhen was harsh in the past, Jia Zhen was able to maintain the dignity of Ningguo Mansion.

When I think about it, if Mr. Zhen passes away one day, the Ningguo Mansion will be truly defeated.

Jia Rong couldn't help but feel even more sad, and said sadly: "Although I hang myself with ginseng every day, I'm afraid I won't survive this winter."

Qin Zhong also sighed. It is estimated that the root cause of Jia Zhen's matter cannot be found. Even if he investigates carefully, it will be blamed on the woman who threw herself into the well.

But the questions in my heart are still lingering.

It really has nothing to do with Xia Jingui? But... there can be doubts about Xia Jingui's questioning of the woman!

Qin Zhong thought about it for a while but didn't come to a conclusion, so he stopped thinking about it for the time being. He comforted him and said: "Uncle Rong, please don't be sad. There are so many doctors, and there is always one who can cure him."

Jia Rong shook his head slightly and replied: "I have invited all the masters inside and outside the city of Shenjing, those who chant sutras and those who practice Buddhist practices, but there is still no improvement."

Alas~~

Qin Zhong stopped talking to Jia Rong and just asked Jia Rong to take him to Jia Zhen.

While in the courtyard, I heard the sound of chanting incessantly in the side room next to me. When I entered the main room, I saw Mr. You and several nuns talking.

Qin Zhong recognized that the nun was Jingxu of Shuiyue Temple. Jia Rong introduced their identities in a low voice, only to learn that the two nuns were Jingxu's disciples, Zhitong and Zhizhi.

They were invited by the Ningguo Mansion to chant and copy sutras, and the voices chanting sutras in the front room were those of Jingxu's other disciples.

Qin Zhong paid his respects to Mr. You.

You didn't hesitate, and greeted Qin Zhong: "I seem to know that you are coming, but I am awake and talking about you today. Come in and talk to me!"

Jia Zhen talks about me?

Qin Zhong thinks he is not familiar with Jia Zhen and has barely met him a few times. Currently, Jia Zhen's favorability level is only 7 points.

At that moment, Youshi's face was full of sorrow, and he just thought it was Youshi who was making a scene. Jia Rong paid careful attention to the old nun Jingxu and Zhitong Zhizhi. The old nun Jingxu performed a Buddha salute with him, and Zhitong Zhizhi.

But he also concentrated and collected his energy just like a Buddhist monk, but Zhi'er's big bright eyes were looking at him.

Zhi'er is also beautiful. Even though she is wearing a plain robe, she can't hide her graceful figure. There is also a yearning for the secular world outside Buddhism in the bright eyes of the delicate and bright little nun.

She whispered "Amitabha" and slowly lowered her head.

Qin Zhong secretly sighed, "No wonder Qin Zhong in the original book would have a tryst with her to make peace." After sighing, without thinking about it, he and Jia Rong went inside where Jia Zhen was sick.

However, the little nun secretly raised her eyes and waited until Qin Zhong disappeared before silently reciting: "Is he the omnipotent Uncle Zhong that Second Master Bao said?"

The fragrance of Jia Zhen's medicine fills the air when she is ill.

When Qin Zhong went in, he saw two little maids waiting inside, and there was no one else among them. No sound from outside could be heard inside, so it was quite quiet.

Looking at Jia Zhen again, she was lying on the bed at this time, covered with a thin brocade quilt. Jia Zhen's face was pale and bloodless, she was thin, and the beard on her chin was actually messy. Her hair was also useless.

Speaking of which, it doesn't even look delicate. It's fluffy and messy, and it looks like there's a black gourd on the skinny head.

Jia Zhen murmured in a vague voice.

After careful analysis, Qin Zhong realized that the word "Jing Qing" was spoken.

The current Jia Zhen indeed lost the spirit she had when we met last year. Qin Zhong saw Jia Zhen struggling to get up and said: "Don't get up quickly. If Master Zhen has anything to do, just give me your instructions."

He hurriedly took two steps over, found a place to sit on the steps of Jia Zhen's bed, and said, "Why are you so thin?"

Jia Rong, who was in the room, sent orders to the maids: "Hurry up and bring some tea. Mr. Jing has not yet had tea when he entered the house."

Jia Zhen moved his body with difficulty. The pain really made it difficult for him to move. Every breath he took was a sharp inhale. In the quiet room, the sound of inhalation was particularly clear.

Qin Zhong looked pitiful and said: "Does it hurt? Don't move!"

Jia Zhen nodded and stopped moving. She only glanced at Jia Rong, with a hint of melancholy in her painful expression, and barely managed to hold on and said:

"I knew Qing Jing was promising, but it's a pity that the two families could not get closer."

After Qin Zhong heard this, he lowered his head silently and said nothing.

Jia Zhen added: "It's thanks to Jingqing that I found a good wife for Rong'er, and the Ningguo Mansion will be able to support him in the future. It's a pity that I'm not blessed. Rong'er just got married before I saw him give birth to a child."

After suffering such a fate, Rong'er was quite up to par, and even got an official title due to your guidance. Even if I went to see my ancestors this year, it's not shameful. If you think about it carefully, it's all thanks to Qing Jing."

Qin Zhong didn't feel proud at all when he heard what he said.

Even though his mind reminded him that Jia Zhen's favorability was +13, he remained silent. Just because he thought of his parents in his previous life, when...

They must have been very sad at that time! It is always sad to be separated from heaven and man. But I have not left them any thoughts, not even grandchildren.

Qin Zhong thought about Qin Ye for a while, but then he thought about Qin Ye. Now Qin Ye is not young, and in a few years he will be seventy. Although he and Qin Ye are not close to each other, after all, there is a nurturing relationship between father and son.

Well, I wonder if Qin has begun to think about having a grandson now?

There were thousands of thoughts in his mind. After he calmed down for a while, he softly replied: "It's all what I should do."

It's just... I don't know whether it will be good or bad for Ningguo Mansion to bring Xia Jingui to Ningguo Mansion!

However, Jia Zhen thinks it is good, so it should be considered a good thing.

Jia Zhen didn't seem to hear it, and kept talking about Jia Rong, criticizing Jia Rong's incompetence.

Qin Zhong just pretended not to hear. Although what Jia Zhen said was true, the root cause of Jia Rong's weak temperament was Jia Zhen. Now he is blaming Jia Rong for not being able to support the family. What's the use?

What does it mean when a child is not well educated when he is a child and is only rejected when he grows up?

Furthermore, from Qin Zhong's point of view, Jia Rong may not be able to support family affairs. Perhaps Jia Rong is suppressed by Xia Jingui in domestic matters, but in the future without Jia Zhen's suppression in external matters, she might be able to take on important responsibilities.

Although this possibility is very small, it is not completely impossible!

Qin Zhong just listened, but Jia Zhen suddenly changed the topic to him.

Jia Zhen coughed twice, and a little maid hurriedly brought her soup and took a sip, and then ate two strange fruits from the far south. He continued: "I can't eat much anymore, I only rely on these to feed myself."

Keep your tongue, I don’t think I have much time left.”

After hearing these words, Jia Rong over there shed tears unconsciously. Although Jia Rong often complained about everything in the past, she is really sad now.

After all, Qin Zhong had experienced life, separation, and death, and he quietly entered into the scene of his previous life. Feeling the atmosphere, he felt quite uncomfortable.

Qin Zhongdao: "You don't have to worry if Master Zhen can eat. He hasn't reached the fields yet. It's only been a few days and we have found a few more imperial doctors. One of them is a good doctor, so we don't have to worry anymore."

Jia Zhen nodded suddenly, laughed to herself, and then grabbed Qin Zhong's hand. She said: "Jing Qing has always had the best ideas, and our two families are also related. Now Jing Qing has recognized the second wife of the West as his godmother, and she is also considered a relative."

We are even closer here. Although Rong'er is a few years older than you, if there ever comes a time in the future, Mr. Jing can give him guidance."

Qin Zhong smiled helplessly. Why is it a bit like a Tuogu drama?

How close is he to Ning Guofu? Jia Rong calls Qin Ye uncle, which is also a polite title.

Not to mention that Qin Zhong’s biological mother and Jia Rong’s biological mother have been dead for more than ten years, not to mention that their mothers were only sisters in the same household. How many sisters are in the same household, how many sisters can they have after they get married?

relative?

If Jia Zhen wants support, she should ask Jia Lian, Wang Xifeng and his wife, or ask Jia Zheng?
