557 Let me try
"My husband, I know I was wrong and I will never do that again. Her nanny really just left her things and ran away."
Chang Chunfeng sighed, "What's the point of saying this now? If she runs away, can't you ask Madam to chase her and send her back? I've been married to you for ten years, and I don't know whether you still can't bear to let her go?
How this matter will turn out in the end is not something I can control. From now on, you should pretend to be sick and go back to Beijing with Ping An tomorrow. I think you should stay at your mother's house for a while.
And think about it carefully. You didn't act like this at the beginning. Now you have lost your way and it doesn't look like you grew up in the Zhang family. If you continue like this, you will hurt everyone, not only me and my children, but also your family. If you think it through, we can get a divorce, and you don't have to worry about the children having a bad life."
After saying that, he turned and left.
He also felt uneasy. The affairs of the Hu family were under investigation, and it was still unclear whether it was related to the Tongpan. Would the Tongpan's wife become a mad dog for her natal family?
Zhang Jinyu looked at her husband's tall figure and felt uneasy: "Mammy, is my husband really planning to abandon me? He wants me to go back to my parents' home."
The nanny sighed and said, "Miss, this matter is very serious. It's great that the son-in-law is like this.
I have been with you for more than ten years. Let me be frank, Miss, you were not like this before. Everyone says that you are well-educated, well-mannered and graceful.
You have really changed over the years. You are especially cold towards Master Ping'an. You didn't even make him a set of clothes for the New Year last year. However, he always gave you and the two young masters valuable gifts during the three festivals every year.
You don't even have any patience with your son-in-law. If he gets angry, you never try to comfort him. If this continues, it's only a matter of time before you and your wife become estranged.
During the past two months since I came here, I have advised you not to accept small favors as they are worthless. It is not easy for a son-in-law to be an official. It would not be worth it if something unexpected happened. But you did not listen.
Miss, I'm going to pack my things, please think about it carefully. "
Zhang Jinyu lay on the quilt and cried silently.
She was indeed not like this before. She loved to talk and laugh, and was lively and cheerful. But that year, when her fiancé who had been engaged to her since childhood knelt in front of her and told her that she had been caught in someone's conspiracy and she had no choice but to break off the engagement, she changed. She became calculative, selfish, and money-loving.
Year after year, she gradually became an old girl of twenty-four or twenty-five years old, surrounded by the looks of people looking down on her and calling off her marriage. Her children, who were almost the same age as her, were now seven or eight years old. Finally, one day her brother told her that he had chosen a man for her. When she heard that he was married and had a child, she was unwilling to marry him.
But her eldest brother told her everything about his experience, and her eyes turned red at that time. How could there be such an unfortunate person?
When they met for the first time, she felt as if she had seen a god, and thought that this must be the most beautiful person she had ever seen. She even liked the way he spoke and the way he walked.
Later, Ping'an came. When she saw the child, she remembered that she was not her husband's original wife. The deeper her love, the more jealous she became. The reason why Jin'er became like that later was indeed because she was not careful when speaking in front of the child. Time and time again, the love between the couple became thinner and thinner.
She wanted to restore her relationship with her husband in the new environment, but she got carried away by the flattery of so many ladies and began to think that in such a big city, her husband was the most powerful prefect, and it should be okay for him to accept some small gifts, as they were not banknotes.
When the banknote really arrived, she was afraid, but she couldn't bear to pay it back. The Zhang family was not rich, and even if her father and brother gave her nearly half of their property as a dowry, it was not much. In addition, she didn't know how to manage it, and her husband's family had no financial resources. The money was delayed until four days later, until the incident of the Hu family happened. It can't be said that she didn't have a little bit of luck.
In the afternoon, the officials under Chang Chunfeng learned that the prefect's eldest son, Ping'an, who had won the sixth place in the imperial examination, had arrived, and they all said they wanted to treat him to a meal.
Chang Chunfeng smiled bitterly, "I'm afraid it won't work today. My wife has been ill these days, and Ping An rushed over to help with the treatment, but he has limited time off, so he will take my wife back to Beijing for recuperation tomorrow."
"Oh, Madam is sick? We really didn't know, otherwise we should have asked my wife to come visit." Lu Zhizhou looked guilty.
"No, no, it's just a minor problem, I can take care of it slowly. I've been so busy these days, I wish I could use it for two days in one day, how can I..."
"Sir, sir." The bailiff hurried over.
"The magistrate's servant is outside and said that his master suddenly passed out at home. He heard that Master Ping'an has come and asked Master Ping'an to come and save him."
Chang Chunfeng and several officials were all horrified. The magistrate had taken a leave in the afternoon and was not in the government office. How could he have fainted from a quarrel with his wife?
"Ping An said he went to Baicaotang this afternoon, and I don't know if he has returned yet. So, you go to Baicaotang and check. I'll have someone look for him in the backyard."
"Okay." The bailiff ran away.
A quarter of an hour later, Ping An, Lin Feng and the other two came over with medical kits: "Dad, is anyone sick?"
"Ping An, the judge has fainted. I don't know the details yet. Come on, dad will go with you."
As soon as Chang Chunfeng left, several officials behind him naturally followed.
The Tongpan's residence was not far from the government office, and the carriage arrived at his door in just fifteen minutes.
What frightened them was that as soon as the people got off the car, someone in the yard was already crying.
A man who looked like a manager ran while crying. When he saw Chang Chunfeng and his group, he knelt down and cried loudly from a distance: "My lord, my master is gone. Wuuwuwu, my master is no longer alive."
Chang Chunfeng certainly knew this person: "What did you say? What happened to Lord Xu?"
"Wow, wow, my master just died."
Ping An frowned and said, "Did your master just pass out? I'm Ping An, take me there."
"Ping An? Master Ping An, I, I will take you there." The steward got up and rushed to the second hospital.
Master Ping An had heard that he had saved a dying person.
"Master Ping An, right here."
A woman's heart-wrenching cries were heard from the room.
Ping'an felt relieved and rushed inside with Lin Feng and Xiao Wu.
It was a very cold day, and a man was lying on the ground, with a woman in brocade clothes lying on top of him, crying bitterly.
"Madam, Master Ping An is here."
"Pull the lady away." Ping An looked at the crying woman. If he pressed her any longer, there would be no possibility of saving her.
The manager was still hesitating, so Lin Feng and Xiao Wu dragged him away.
"Dad, let everyone go out. I'll try to save them. If we wait any longer, even gods won't be able to help."
Chang Chunfeng, who was following behind, was a little confused. The person had already died and there was no way he could be saved even if he was rescued.
But he still asked everyone to get out.
Mrs. Xu was also dragged out.
Ping An and Lin Feng stripped the magistrate of the Tongpan's robe, and then lifted him up onto his cotton robe.
The person is really out of breath.
Ping An hit the man in the chest several times.
This also confused Xiao Wu and Lin Feng. They had never seen the young master save someone in this way.
That's quite a bit of strength.
Ping An didn't have time to explain. When a person just dies, there may be five minutes of golden time for first aid. If the time exceeds this, there is basically no need to save him.
The judge had only been dead for three minutes, so everything was still possible.
Ping An placed one hand on the center of Tongpan's sternum and stacked his other hand on top of this hand, pressing with both hands.
Xiao Wu and Lin Feng opened their eyes wide in shock. Every time their young master pressed the Tongpan's pulse fifteen times, he would check his pulse. This was exactly the same as the first aid method for a drowning person.
Except for the first few hammer blows.
