Chapter 14 The Prince Has a Heart Disease
Lin sent her maid to inquire and took her two daughters to see the old lady.
The old lady didn't prepare anything special, after all, her daughter lived nearby and came often. But no matter how often she came, she was still very happy to see her daughter and granddaughter.
"Did mother sleep well these past two days?"
"I'm fine." The old lady didn't bother to pay attention to her daughter and took Wen Hao's hand. "Ah Hao, does your foot still hurt?"
"Don't worry, grandma. My foot has healed a long time ago."
"That's good. Be careful next time and don't climb such a high wall." The old lady smiled and warned, her eyes never leaving Wen Hao.
It sounds so nice when Ah Hao calls grandma.
Lin couldn't bear it any longer: "Mother, are you planning to stare Ah Hao until she blooms into a flower?"
The old lady glanced at her and said, "She's my own granddaughter. I can watch her as long as I want."
"I've never seen you look at me like this before."
The old lady rolled her eyes and said, "When you were little, you only knew how to make me angry. You were not as well-behaved as Chan'er and Ah Hao."
Back then, the old man was the king of the mountain, she was his wife, and his daughter ran around the mountain all day long, occasionally participating in a robbery to gain experience.
She never expected that when troubled times came, the old man became the Duke of Dingguo, she became the Duke's wife, and the wild boy-like girl became a noble lady from a famous family.
But she always knew that their family was different from those aristocratic families that had been passed down for hundreds of years, and her daughter, a noble lady, was also different from other noble ladies.
When her daughter grew up to be married, she actually fell in love with a newly-minted Jinshi.
She and the old man originally planned to marry their daughter to a military general's family, but their daughter was determined and they had no choice but to give in to her.
Fortunately, the son-in-law comes from a poor family and there are not so many rules at home, so there is no need for his daughter to suppress her nature.
The son-in-law's biggest advantage is that he is good-looking, which gives her two beautiful granddaughters.
Thinking about how her daughter and son-in-law have been living in harmony over the years, and her two lovely granddaughters, the old lady's worries back then have long since disappeared.
As the three generations of grandparents and grandchildren were chatting happily, Fangfei, the maid who was entrusted with an important task by Lin, came in.
"Did you find out?" Lin asked hurriedly.
The old lady was confused: "What are you asking?"
Lin smiled and said, "When I got off the car, I found that the gate of Prince Jing's Mansion was open. I saw an old man with ordinary clothes and a white beard being invited in. My daughter was very curious about his identity, so I asked Fangfei to find out."
The main doors of wealthy families are rarely opened, and people usually go in and out through the side doors.
"When will you change your temper, kid?" the old lady said helplessly.
Lin pointed at Wen Hao and said with a smile, "Ah Hao is curious too."
Wen Hao was suddenly pulled in by his mother and forgot to speak for a moment.
The old lady said as a matter of course: "Ah Hao is still young, of course he is curious."
Lin choked and her gaze fell back on Fangfei.
Fang Fei hurriedly said, "He is a famous doctor specially invited by Prince Jing's Mansion for Prince Jing."
Lin immediately became concerned: "What happened to Prince Jing?"
"It is said that a few days ago, he suddenly felt chest tightness and heart pain. This famous doctor is the best at this. The Prince Jing's Mansion had a lot of trouble inviting him from outside the city."
Lin was furious when she heard this: "Prince Jing's Mansion is going too far!"
The old lady glanced at Lin with disapproval: "When his son is sick, isn't it normal to ask for medical advice? How is that excessive?"
"Mother, you don't know—" Lin opened her mouth and then remembered that her eldest daughter was there too.
"Know what?"
Lin was a straightforward person. Thinking that her eldest daughter was calm and composed, she could not help but say, "Some time ago, someone from Prince Jing's residence came to test my opinion. They wanted to ask for Ah Hao's hand in marriage on behalf of Prince Jing."
"Prince Jing is asking to marry Ah Hao?" The old lady was so shocked that she almost dropped the teacup in her hand. "Even if he wants to marry her, he should ask to marry Chan'er, right?"
Chan'er is the older sister, two years older than Ahao.
Lin choked up, "Mother, does it matter who I ask for marriage? What matters is that Prince Jing's Mansion is dishonest. They want to ask our daughter to marry their sickly son!"
"That's not very kind." The old lady had already quickly reviewed Prince Jing's height, appearance, and temperament in her mind, and couldn't help but feel a little regretful. "I only heard that Prince Jing was a little frail, but I didn't hear that he had heart disease."
Lin nodded repeatedly: "Yes, I was also a little tempted when I first heard about it, but luckily Ah Hao reminded me. Fortunately, Ah Hao was attentive and knew that Prince Jing had a heart disease."
Wen Hao: When did she know this?
Does Prince Jing have a heart disease?
She remembered that Prince Jing went on a long journey not long after. Could Prince Jing and his wife allow their son, who had just consulted a famous doctor, to travel so far?
Or did the famous doctor have supernatural powers and immediately cured Prince Jing's heart disease?
If that's the case—Wen Hao's eyes lit up.
My grandmother died of anger. Perhaps there was something wrong with her heart and spleen. It would not hurt to ask that famous doctor to diagnose her.
Wen Hao was thinking this when she heard Lin say, "Mother, didn't you say you felt a little stuffy in your chest a while ago? It just so happens that Prince Jing's mansion has invited a famous doctor. After that doctor has examined Prince Jing, we'll invite him to see you as well."
The old lady waved her hand dismissively, "No need for that. It's inevitable that people get short of breath and chest tightness as they age. Doctors don't usually say anything when they come to see me."
A hand reached out and grabbed her sleeve.
"Grandma, let's let a famous doctor see you."
The girl, who still had some baby fat, tilted her head slightly, her autumn-water eyes filled with worry and pleading.
The old lady immediately softened her heart and agreed.
Because Ah Hao was born mute, she is more sensitive than ordinary girls, so it is better not to let this girl worry.
Lin secretly complained that her mother was partial to him, but then she thought about the importance that Prince Jing's Mansion attached to famous doctors, so she went to the palace in person.
At this time, the famous doctor was taking the pulse of Prince Qi Shuo of Jingwang.
"Divine Doctor, how is Shuo'er?"
"This..." Doctor Zhu looked at Qi Shuo thoughtfully.
Qi Shuo looked at him silently.
Seeing that Doctor Zhu was hesitant to speak, Princess Jing became anxious: "Go ahead, doctor, I can bear it. Could it be that——"
No, she's going to faint!
Prince Jing hurriedly supported the shaky Princess Jing, his expression extremely solemn: "Divine Doctor, please take a closer look. Shuo'er... Shuo'er should be fine, right?"
Qi Shuo coughed lightly.
In the suffocating silence, Doctor Zhu finally spoke: "The prince's heart disease...is not serious."
Princess Jing didn't believe it: "If it's not serious, why is the miracle doctor hesitant?"
Doctor Zhu looked at Qi Shuo deeply.
The boy sat quietly with an innocent look on his face.
"I am just being cautious and cannot make a diagnosis lightly."
"That's good, that's good." Princess Jing breathed a sigh of relief, then suddenly said, "But this is a heart and spleen problem after all. Even if it's not serious, we can't take it lightly. Please tell me, my doctor, how should I take care of it in the future?"
Doctor Zhu stroked his beard and said slowly, "Your Highness is worried. Heart disease often arises from overwork and stagnant qi. Wait for me to prescribe a prescription. Take the medicine according to the prescription and try to be as patient as possible."
"Satisfied?" Princess Jing grasped the key point.
She didn't know much about medicine, but she could still make her son happy.
