Chapter 238 The Little Scholar Killed by His Classmates (22)
Yang Zhong staggered back a few steps in dejection, but Yang Gui managed to hold him up.
"But this, but this..."
Yang Zhong looked at the doctor blankly, then at Yang Ruqing.
On the contrary, although Yang Ruqing was also shocked, she was able to remain calm.
I gently asked the doctor, "How long will I be in this condition?"
"In my opinion, the damage this dosage will cause to your body will last at most ten years, or at least three to five years."
Although Yang Ruqing was angry at this moment, she actually felt a sense of calm as if everything had been settled.
He waved to Yang Zhong and said, "Send the doctor back safely."
Yang Zhong naturally understood, and when he sent the doctor away, he slipped him a silver note worth 500 taels.
"Our master's illness, I still ask the doctor to help cover it up."
"Don't worry. Keeping patient confidentiality is the most basic moral principle for a doctor."
After the doctor left, Yang Ruqing coldly instructed Yang Zhong.
“Those people in the yard only bring in one bowl of water a day.
They have the energy to stir up trouble in the mansion, probably because they are well fed.
Then just starve for a few days and wait for Yang Gui to come back before we talk about other things."
"It's Master."
“As for the tribe, send someone over to say hello to them.
It’s not that I didn’t keep my promise and dealt with them, it’s just that the time has not come yet.”
"Don't worry, sir.
I think the clan leader and the others will understand your difficulties."
"Ah, it's all my fault. I haven't thought about returning to my ancestral land to get a proper understanding of the situation in all these years."
"How can you be blamed for this?"
"Over the years, every year, whether it's Qingming or any other time.
As long as you have the urge to return home to worship your ancestors, you will fall seriously ill for no reason.
Then we can only follow Madam's instructions and send a few respectable servants to perform the sacrifice on your behalf."
“No, wrong is wrong.
The clan leader and the others thought that I hadn't returned to visit my mother's grave in all these years."
Yang Zhong said nothing more, thinking about the strange reasons why Yang Ruqing had fallen ill every time over the years.
He consulted almost all the doctors in Suzhou City, but they all said that he just caught a cold or was weak.
Because Qingming Festival is coming, I suddenly feel depressed due to excessive sadness.
Now that I think about it, either the person who gave the medicine gave it a drug that was too strong and the doctors couldn't tell the difference.
Or maybe someone bribed all those doctors in advance.
If Yang Zhong could figure it out, how could Yang Ruqing not figure it out?
After sitting quietly for a while, he said to Yang Zhong, "Go and tie up the court doctor and lock him up in a solitary room. Don't let him have any contact with anyone else.
I'll send you to Yongchang County and ask the old doctor if he's willing to come back with me to Suzhou to be the provincial physician. The salary will be higher."
On the other side, Yang Ruqing was panicking because she was poisoned.
Here, Zheng Sangning and her son did not return home with a full load until sunset.
Not only did he pick two baskets of mushrooms, but he also picked a basket of medicinal herbs.
When they were going down the mountain, Shuangshuang also chopped down a crooked tree to use as firewood.
I just came back and Shuangshuang was boiling water to wash up.
Suddenly, there was a noise coming from the neighbor's house next door, as well as some begging for mercy.
Seeing this, Shuangshuang asked Xiaojuzi in surprise.
"What's going on over there?"
"Nothing, it's just Yang Ruqing dealing with those disobedient servants."
"Oh, those slaves should have been dealt with long ago. They are bullying their masters."
A few days passed quickly, and I thought the county should have released the results by now.
Shuangshuang carried a basket of things prepared by Zheng Sangning, and went to the back mountain to catch two little rabbits, one white and one gray.
He put the contents in two small bamboo cages and walked to the county town.
Zheng Sangning originally wanted him to ride Zhuifeng, but was rejected by Shuangshuang.
Riding a horse might not even be as fast as walking, so there's really no need to bring such a big and conspicuous thing with him.
During this period of time, Yu Ming was looking forward to his brother Yu Shuang coming back every day, to the point that he would go to the gate to check three times a day.
When he saw Shuangshuang, he immediately ran over excitedly.
"Brother Yushuang, Brother Yushuang, you're back?"
"You're back! Here, this is the little rabbit your brother brought you."
As he said that, he took out a small cage from his backpack and handed it to him.
Seeing the rabbit he had been longing for, Yuming jumped for joy.
"Thank you, Brother Yushuang! Thank you, Brother Yushuang! Hahaha..."
He picked up the cage and ran to the backyard to find his sister. His cheerful laughter could be heard from far away.
The master's wife scolded him with a smile, "Just spoil him!"
Shuangshuang handed the basket in her hand to the master's wife and explained to her.
"Master's Wife, it's nothing, I just caught it for him on my way to the mountain.
And I caught a male and a female on purpose. If they can really raise them, they will give birth to little rabbits and we can eat their meat."
After putting the backpack back in the room, Shuangshuang went to the study.
This time, all five candidates were present except him.
They both glanced at Jiang Yunzhi and saw that his eyes were dark, his lips were pale, and he no longer had the vitality he had before!
It feels like you can lie down on the table and enter a dream anytime and anywhere.
No one found it strange and just thought he was under too much pressure.
Only Shuangshuang knew that the medicine had taken effect.
It seems that he has to act on his plans as soon as possible, otherwise if he dies early, he won't feel the heartache.
It is better to choose a day than to choose a time. That night, both of them went out on time at three o'clock in the morning.
He dodged the night watchmen and the county patrol and quickly jumped out of the city wall.
There is only one street in the town, so Mr. Chen's house is easy to spot.
He quickly came to the backyard of Mr. Chen's house and followed the route given by Xiaojuzi to find his yard.
As a result, even at this late hour, he could still hear the screams of a young woman coming from his room!
Xiaojuzi quickly turned his head and saw the old beast inside, who was whipping a little girl with a black whip.
The little girl had apparently fainted.
Both of them couldn't help but grit their teeth!
This old beast is already in his fifties or sixties, and he still tortures a little girl. He deserves to die.
Without further ado, roots grew from under his feet and drilled into the ground, then he quietly climbed up from behind Mr. Chen!
A sharp stab was made in his heart from the back, and the old beast fell to the ground instantly!
This was the fall that woke the little girl up.
Shuangshuang was originally worried that she would scream, but unexpectedly the little girl was very smart and immediately covered her mouth.
He stood up and pushed the old beast, only to find that he was dead and motionless!
Perhaps the little girl thought of the injustice she had suffered these days, so she stood up, picked up the lampstand, poured the remaining kerosene on the old beast, and then put the lampstand on him.
After his whole body was on fire, he put on some clothes and ran out crying.
