Chapter 1181 Interruption (Thanks to the book friend "The author is not here" for the reward)
Manbao and Baishan smiled at the same time and stood on the steps to watch.
Nanny Fu was startled and hurried to stop him, "Young Master——"
Butler Xu was also stunned for a moment, and then he also cried and shouted, "Master——"
But he accidentally caught Yue Dalang's hand that was fighting back...
The servants of the Yue family rushed out and tried to stop them. Nanny Fu saw many people trying to pull her young master, and she was afraid that they would hurt him. She was unhappy, so she let go of the hands that were holding her and turned to push those servants...
Fu Wenhua was like clinging to Yue Dalang, swinging his fists and hitting him, no one could pull him away...
Old Lady Yue, who had been hiding in the backyard, couldn't stand the noise any longer. She quickly came out, holding the girl's hand. Seeing her son being beaten so badly, she shouted, "What are you doing? Pull him away!"
Fu Wenhua's upper body was finally pulled apart, but his lower body was still unwilling to give in. He kept kicking forward while being pulled apart. One of his kicks hit Yue Dalang in the face, causing him to fall to the ground with his hands covering his face.
Old Lady Yue felt so distressed when she saw this that she went forward to hug Yue Dalang. Seeing that his face was bruised and swollen, she started crying and scolding him, "My son, what happened to you..."
Of course, she wouldn't scold Fu Wenhua. She was scolding the servants in the courtyard. "What do you all do for a living? Even if the masters have a disagreement, you should at least try to persuade them. How can you just start fighting?"
"Let me go, let me go!" Fu Wenhua struggled hard to break free. The servants of the Yue family quickly stood in front of him, fearing that he would attack again.
Fu Wenhua was so angry that his eyes turned red. He pointed at Old Lady Yue and was about to scold her, but Bai Shan pressed his finger down. He moved sideways to block Old Lady Yue's sight and whispered to her, "You can beat and scold Yue Dalang, but it would be disrespectful to do that to Old Lady Yue."
Butler Xu had already come up and just heard Bai Shan's words. He nodded gratefully at him, then hugged his young master and continued to cry, "Young Master, Young Master, please don't be angry. The most urgent thing now is to take good care of the second aunt and the young master. The second aunt has suffered a great injustice. If you hadn't come this time, the family would probably never know about the injustice the second aunt has suffered..."
Fu Wenhua also felt that his sister had been greatly wronged. Heartbroken, he couldn't hold back his tears. He wiped his eyes, pushed Butler Xu away, and shouted, "Then what are you still standing there for? Hurry up and get the carriage. Let's take Second Sister home. Yue Lan, do you think our Fu family is easy to bully? My father will be here in three days at the latest. Let's see how you explain it to him then!"
He was about to go to the backyard to pick someone up after saying that. How could Old Madam Yue let him take her away? She immediately had someone stop him and said with a smile, "Young Master Fu, our two families are in-laws and are very close. Don't listen to the servants' gossip. You just went to see your sister. Is she okay? Did she say that our Yue family treated her poorly?"
Fu Wenhua gritted his teeth and said nothing.
"No, right?" Old Madam Yue wiped her tears and said, "I only have this one daughter-in-law. She treated me like her own daughter the moment she came into the house. We had just arrived in the capital and were unfamiliar with the place, but as soon as we settled in, I asked for the best midwife around and hired one to wait on us. I don't know where Butler Xu heard those rumors, but I..."
Manbao saw that Butler Xu was bent over with his head down, and although Fu Wenhua was still very angry, he could not utter a word to refute. So he coughed lightly and stepped forward, saying "Ouch!" "Mr. Yue seems to have a nosebleed. Mrs. Yue, do you want me to take a look at him first?"
Mrs. Yue, who was just about to continue her rambling, was immediately distracted and said quickly, "Quick, quick, Doctor Zhou, can you check if my son is injured?"
Manbao immediately turned sideways and said, "Help him to the hall first. I'll take a closer look."
Butler Xu breathed a sigh of relief, pulled Fu Wenhua and shook his head slightly.
The servants of the Yue family hurriedly carried Yue Dalang into the front hall.
Old Mrs. Yue followed closely, wiping her tears.
Bai Shan stood on the steps with his hands behind his back and watched. Butler Xu quietly raised his head and glanced at the people in the yard, and saw Bai Shan at a glance.
He felt that he looked familiar, but he couldn't remember when he had seen him before. Seeing Fu Wenhua sitting on the steps with a bloated look on his face, he walked over to Madam Fu and asked in a low voice, "That's Miss Man. Who is that young man?"
Nanny Fu was also worried that Fu Wenhua had hurt Yue Dalang. She was looking into the hall. Upon hearing this, she glanced at Bai Shanhou and whispered, "It's Mr. Bai. You don't remember him, the young man who often follows Miss Man, the cousin of Mr. Bai."
When she said that, Butler Xu remembered.
Speaking of which, he is quite familiar with Mr. Bai. Basically, he goes around on behalf of his master during every festival.
Butler Xu asked in a low voice, "When did they arrive in the capital?"
"She arrived three or two months earlier than us. Miss Man is now a doctor at Jishitang, and Master Bai is a student at the Imperial Academy. He knows a lot of people," Nanny Fu said bluntly, pointing out the key point. "Thanks to Miss Man, she saved the young lady yesterday. Now, Miss Man helped to arrange for the young master's wet nurse."
Butler Xu understood, nodded to Nanny Fu, and immediately went forward to pay his respects to Bai Shan.
Manbao checked and found that although his nose was bleeding, his nose bridge was not broken; although he kept crying out in pain, it was actually just a bruise and no bones were injured. After applying some medicine, he would be fine in ten days or half a month.
Then Manbao looked at Xiaoshao who had slipped over at some point and said, "Clean him up. It's not a serious injury. I'll prescribe some blood-dispersing medicine. Oh, and do you want some ointment? It will heal faster that way."
Old Madam Yue nodded immediately and said, "Yes, yes."
Manbao then took a new piece of paper and wrote down the prescription. He then handed it to Old Madam Yue along with the one he had given Fu Wenyun. He said with a smile, "Your family can send someone with Xiao Shao back to Jishitang to get the medicine. By the way, including the medicine we took yesterday, the total is 122 liang and 7 qian."
Old Madam Yue's hand holding the prescription froze, and she twitched the corners of her mouth and said, "Isn't the medicine at Jishidiang too expensive?"
Manbao didn't say anything, and Xiaoshao beside him immediately said, "Madam, our Jishitang's medicine is famous not only in the capital, but also in the whole of Dajin for its high quality and low price. But yesterday, the wife of your family had a difficult labor, and she used up our only life-saving pill. That pill is made from wild ginseng that is over a hundred years old and a variety of precious medicinal materials. It is hard to come by, and so many people want it, but our shopkeeper won't sell it to you."
See you tomorrow
