Chapter 303: You Can't Say a Few Words to Her
"How is my Zhu'er?"
As soon as the doctor came out, Madam Wang hurriedly stepped forward to ask him questions.
"The beating was a bit too hard, but fortunately he's young and in his prime. He'll recover after a few days of bed rest."
The doctor tried his best to hide his surprise.
Unexpectedly, Grand Tutor Shen, a man of refined character, was still vigorous and capable when disciplining unruly children.
Thanks to the young master of the Yuan family, his consultation fees have increased dramatically these days. He has never seen any young master beaten as badly as the Shen family. It is obvious that he suffered secondary injuries.
"Then...then I'll trouble you to use more good medicine, and make sure he doesn't get any scars. If you have any prescriptions for strengthening his body, please prescribe one as well."
"Madam loves her son dearly, but all medicines have side effects. The young master has a good constitution, so there is no need for further supplements. Just let him rest and recover."
As soon as she finished speaking, Madam Wang felt reassured, and she was indeed more at ease. She had her personal maid bring some money, and respectfully saw the doctor out the door, while she hurriedly pushed open the door and went inside.
Shen Ruozhu, dressed in her undergarments, lay sprawled on the couch in a disheveled state, covered only by a thin silk quilt, which still chafed her so much that she cried out in pain.
"My son..."
Madam Wang sat down on the edge of the bed, clutching her handkerchief and wiping away her tears. "You've been dragged down by the Yuan family! How precious is Yuan Siyin? Can't you even say a few words to her?"
With Wang's support, Shen Ruozhu, who had been feeling defeated, immediately became indignant again: "That's right! What's wrong with saying a few words to her? She's so petty!"
Besides, I've already been beaten by Yuan Fuqing, isn't that enough to repay her?
"What do you know, child? The Yuan family just sees you as an easy target and is using you as a scapegoat!"
My poor son, who has never been beaten even once since he was a child, suffered this filth from her today!
Wang Shi became furious. Just then, the maid returned with the doctor and immediately shouted, "Prepare the carriage! We're going to the Crown Prince's residence!"
"Master just said he was going out. Would you like to go with him, Madam?"
In the past, Wang would have ridden with him, but this time was different.
"Have the servants prepare another carriage, but be sure to keep it a secret from the master; he must not know about this."
"yes."
After the maid left, Madam Wang took a cloak and put it on, not forgetting to turn back and instruct, "I'm going out for a bit. You rest here and take good care of yourself. If you need anything, just call out. Everyone in the courtyard is my person, understand?"
"Is Mother going to find my brother-in-law to avenge me?"
"You should rest for now."
Without saying much, Wang hurriedly went out.
She did want to see the Crown Prince, but he had not yet returned from his salt inspection trip to the south. For now, she could only ask Lan'er for help in getting revenge.
Shen Ruolan was sitting upright in the hall waiting for her concubines to pay their respects and serve tea. She had just taken a sip and put the tea down when Xi Yue entered listlessly and reported, "Concubine, the Madam has arrived, and she has brought Emei Snow Bud tea with her."
"Little girl?"
A sense of joy welled up in Shen Ruolan's heart.
Emei Snow Bud is her favorite tea, and she hasn't had it in a long time. She didn't expect her mother to still remember it.
Counting the days, it's been quite a while since I've seen my younger sister, and I've definitely been missing her a lot.
Upon seeing this, the concubines exchanged glances and immediately laughed, "Xueya is a rare delicacy from Emei. The concubine is so lucky to be able to drink such a fine tea."
"I've heard that Emei Snow Bud tea has a pure and elegant taste, a rich and fragrant aroma, and blooms in the high mountain forests where the winter snow has not yet melted. It is like white snow and jade, which is worthy of the status of a concubine."
