Chapter 273: Get ready, our family is really going to change
"Really?" Yao Xianqing was overjoyed. His niece was a miracle doctor, so what she said couldn't be wrong. "If your aunt really gives birth to a little girl for uncle, she will definitely thank you very much."
Du Wanwan smiled slyly: "No problem, no problem."
Everyone said goodbye with laughter, and after more than two months of stopping and going, they finally returned to Da Wei.
When the people saw their convoy entering the city, they spontaneously made way for them. Doctor Du of the People's Clinic was afraid that if he was not there, no one would treat them, so he asked Liu Changshan of Huichuntang to take over.
Although Doctor Du is not in Liang County, the People's Clinic is not closed and many patients still visit it every day.
The people were grateful and deeply moved by this.
After Du Wanwan left, the people got used to coming to the People's Clinic. Even though they knew Doctor Du was not there, they still lined up here every day.
Ye Zhenghai felt that his daughter-in-law had too much influence. After writing a letter to inquire about Du Wanwan, he made a decision and agreed to allow Liu Changshan to come to the People's Medical Clinic for consultation.
Liu Changshan felt that the People’s Clinic should not be closed, because if it was closed, the people would be wandering around like headless flies.
He volunteered to go to Ye Zhenghai to negotiate, and stated that he was Du Wanwan's apprentice, hoping that he would take over the People's Clinic while his master was away.
Seeing that Liu Changshan was doing a good job, Du Wanwan did not interfere after he came back, thinking that he was capable of doing the job well.
This invisibly lightened a lot of her burden.
While still on the road, Ye Tingxiao received a message from the prince that the Pingyang Marquis Mansion in the capital had discovered that Ye Zhengchun had been involved in corruption and bribery.
The matter is not very serious and should not affect them. The prince means for them to be prepared to deal with it.
Du Wanwan felt that the matter was not that simple. The matter of Pingyang Marquis Mansion in the capital was probably aimed at them. They didn't tell anyone on the way, and only told them when they got home.
Ye Zhenghai also received the news, his brows furrowed, "Ye Zhengchun has been arrested, and the case is being handled by the Ministry of Justice."
Chen Xiangxiu held the little kid Chenchen who had just learned to walk in her hand and walked around the living room tirelessly: "When did it happen?"
"Mid-September." Xu replied, "It has been more than a month now, and the case has been kept at the Ministry of Justice."
Ye Tingxiao sneered: "It's under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Justice? Corruption and bribery are also under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Justice? Did my second uncle kill someone?"
"I don't know." Ye Zhenghai shook his head, frowning. He felt the panic of impending storm, "Zhongyuan! I'm afraid your second uncle's matter this time is not that simple. The Ministry of Justice is controlled by the King of Qi's people, and he is not an easy person to deal with."
"King of Qi?" Du Wanwan rolled over the words between her lips and teeth, her eyes narrowed slightly, "Is he trying to hit the bull from a distance? Oh! He's really sneaky."
"Shoot the cow from across the mountain? What does that mean?" Chen Xiangxiu didn't understand.
Without waiting for Du Wanwan to answer, Chenchen pointed outside the door: "Niu, Niu, Niu, Mawu! Mawu!"
Seeing his lively and lovely grandson, Ye Zhenghai's worries disappeared. He walked over, squatted down, and picked up his grandson. "No matter what the King of Qi wants to do, we will accompany him to the end. There is no other way. Thunder, lightning, rain and dew are all grace from the king. Zhongyuan! Daughter-in-law! You should be prepared. Our family may be in trouble."
There was one thing he didn't explain. In the capital, it wasn't just the King of Qi who wanted to deal with them. The old lady and the second and third sons would probably not miss such a good opportunity.
But he didn't want to say this. After all, it was a matter involving women in the backyard. How could a grown man like him criticize the faults of his elders in front of the younger ones?
On the surface, the old lady was very considerate and caring towards her stepson, and he could see that she was actually sincere.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have been so determined to marry Chen Xiangxiu back then. He was just afraid that the man next to him would be controlled by her, and no one knew what would happen then.
His mother died in an unclear manner, and he remarried the old lady not long after. He was still young when his mother died, and when he grew up and wanted to investigate, it seemed that everything was gone and there was nothing to find.
Before his father left, he told him: "Stay in Liang County and don't go back to the capital too often."
Although there was a sense of instruction at the time, it seemed more like she wanted to express something, but he didn't know what it was. The relationship between the old lady and his mother was also checked, and the two of them barely knew each other.
He ruled out the possibility that she had arranged for someone to do something, but his father's words had always puzzled him, and he hadn't been able to let it go for all these years.
The old lady had always wanted to control the mansion, his marriage, and everything about him. Later, when she found that she couldn't do it, she kept his son by her side and refused to let the family reunite.
Later, when his son grew up and needed to join the army for training, he was taken out by the old lady. When she heard that he had married a woman who had fled from famine, the old lady was definitely not happy.
I just don't know if she did anything behind the second brother's corruption. The second brother had been sent out for a long time and was only transferred back last year. I don't know who helped him.
It hasn't been long since he was accused of corruption and bribery. He is just a fifth-rank editor, and the people around him are all officials of similar rank to him. What could he possibly embezzle?
You can't think about this, it's terrifying if you think about it.
Let's take it one day at a time! They are not in the capital, so they don't know what happened to the second son. The prince can't interfere too much, because it is said that there are witnesses and evidences for the second son's case.
"I'm not afraid." Du Wanwan responded to the eunuch with a smile, "No matter what, the King of Qi doesn't dare to touch me for the time being. If he dares, he will be pushing himself to death.
I am most worried about the prince and father. If things really change, you two will be the first to bear the brunt and will not be able to escape. "
Ye Tingxiao looked at Du Wanwan with burning eyes: "Don't worry! I will take care of your father. If a disaster really happens, Wanwan! The whole family will depend on you."
Chen Xiangxiu's eyes were slightly red, and she sat on the chair: "The capital has finally taken action, Lord! There are some things we must tell the children. What's the point of hiding it?"
Xu sighed, "The Crown Prince's Consort is a smart person. There's no need to hide it. Once she goes to the capital, she will know everything she should know."
Ye Zhenghai said nothing. He teased his grandson and took Chenchen to the garden to look for the cow that was calling "Mawu Mawu" in his mouth.
Du Wanwan looked curious: "Mom! Is there anything in the capital that you need to tell me? You tell me, I'm listening."
Ye Tingxiao stretched out his hand and pulled Du Wanwan away: "I'll tell you this, don't ask mother."
Chen Xiangxiu also felt that it would be more appropriate for her son to talk about her relationship with the old lady rather than for her to speak out herself. After all, she was the daughter-in-law, and Xu's status as a concubine was not decent enough.
It was a mess, and the elders didn't know how to talk to the younger generation. The old lady's methods were fierce, but in the end it didn't achieve what she expected, causing discord between the wives and concubines in their family and the estrangement between the father and son.
On the contrary, their family has harmonious relations between wives and concubines, and good relations between father and son. Now they have a smart and lovely grandson. I wonder how comfortable their lives must be.
Is it because of this that the old lady and her son are going to do everything they can to destroy it all?
Is this something a human would do?
