Chapter 115: Eye for Eye
Pei Jingyuan didn't know about Zhao Shiwen and her daughter, and thought she really had some difficult and complicated disease. He knew that Doctor Fu was just an ordinary doctor, and if it was really a difficult disease, he didn't know if he could cure it. So he wanted to refuse.
But just when he was about to refuse, Xu Qingyan spoke first: "Second brother, you don't want to refuse, do you? What does this aunt say? She is our elder, how can we not treat her? Besides, aunt only has a minor illness. If Doctor Fu can't even cure this minor illness, doesn't it just prove that he is incompetent?"
"Is it really a minor illness? Then why can't the other doctors you hired cure it?" Pei Jingyuan looked at Xu Qingyan with some confusion.
Hearing this, Xu Qingyan just sighed and said, "Alas... It's a minor illness. At first, they just said it was a cold and some old ailments, but those doctors couldn't cure it. They said I had to rest for a long time. I thought, maybe their medical skills are too ordinary. Isn't this miracle doctor called a miracle doctor? If he is a miracle doctor, he must be better than ordinary doctors."
Seeing Xu Qingyan said so, how could Pei Jingyuan refuse? He could only look at Doctor Fu and nod in agreement.
Several people came to Cuiyu Pavilion together.
At this time, Xu Fengping was lying in the house eating grapes leisurely, while Zhao Shiwen was practicing dancing in the next room.
When Xu Qingyan and the others came over, what they saw was Xu Fengping sitting with her legs crossed, looking extremely relaxed.
"Aunt, is your illness cured?" Xu Qingyan asked as she walked in.
After hearing the sound, Xu Fengping was so scared that the grapes in her hand fell to the ground. She swallowed the grapes in her mouth hard and then started coughing violently.
"Ahem... Madam Crown Prince, why...why are you here? I...I'm still not well, I feel very uncomfortable... ahem..." She couldn't say that she was well and her daughter's goal had not been achieved, so how could they leave the Duke's Mansion?
Zhao Shiwen, who was practicing dancing in the room, came out after hearing the noise outside. She was wearing a pink dance costume, with a graceful figure, slender waist and narrow shoulders, and rosy cheeks. As soon as she came out, she immediately attracted Pei Jingyuan's attention.
His slightly surprised gaze lingered on Zhao Shiwen for a moment, and Zhao Shiwen also keenly noticed this gaze. She boldly raised her eyes and looked at him, thinking: Who is this person? He seems to be good-looking! Judging from his dress, his status seems to be not low. Could it be that he is the son of a certain family and is good friends with the young master?
Xu Qingyan noticed the subtle changes between Pei Jingyuan and Zhao Shiwen, and couldn't help but feel happy in her heart: [Eh... are these two in love? Hahaha... It seems that my arrangement is not bad. These two people did not escape the fate in the book after all. As soon as they met, they really could create sparks! Didn't Xu Qingyue want to make things difficult for me and my husband? Now it's good, I finally gave it back to her, but I don't know if Zhao Shiwen can seize this opportunity. ]
Pei Jingchuan, who was beside him, raised his eyebrows when he heard this. He then realized that Xu Qingyan had asked Pei Jingyuan to come here for this purpose. It seemed that Qingyan must be a little angry that Zhao Shiwen was pestering her and cared about her, so she wanted to do this. In an instant, Pei Jingchuan felt a little sweet in his heart.
"Young Master, Crown Princess, why did you suddenly come here?" Zhao Shiwen retracted his gaze and turned to ask Xu Qingyan and the others with a smile.
Xu Qingyan stepped forward and said, "Shiwen, let me introduce you. This is the young master's younger brother, the second young master of the Duke's Mansion, and the husband of your cousin Qingyue. He brought a genius doctor here today to see the young master, but the young master has been seriously ill for a long time and I'm afraid it's difficult to cure him. But I thought that my aunt has been ill for a long time and hasn't recovered yet, so I asked him to come and see her."
"The young master is terminally ill? Didn't you say that the young master's illness was cured after you, my cousin, got married?" Zhao Shiwen suddenly asked in surprise, with an expression of disbelief on her face.
"Really? Who told you this?" Xu Qingyan asked softly.
It seems that Zhao Shiwen was deceived! Just now, she just wanted to trick him. Did she know that Pei Jingchuan was ill and still wanted to seduce him, or did she not know that was why she wanted to seduce him? In the end, she found out that she was really deceived, because she remembered that Zhao Shiwen in the book was a very realistic person. According to the description in the book, if she knew that Pei Jingchuan was dying, she would not bother with him. She is another ambitious person besides Xu Qingyue.
"This...I heard my aunt mention it." Zhao Shiwen hesitated for a moment, but still did not keep the secret for Xu's mother. She also felt a little resentful in her heart about Xu's mother for wanting to trick her into seducing a dying man!
Now, she suddenly learned that Pei Jingchuan's disease was not cured, and it was possible that it could not be cured at all. She instantly lost interest in Pei Jingchuan, and even felt that Xu Qingyan was a little pitiful. No matter how good-looking Pei Jingchuan was, or how noble his status was, he would still be a widow in the future? And Xu Qingyan didn't have any children, so the family business of the Duke's Mansion might be...
Suddenly, Zhao Shiwen figured it out. No wonder Xu Qingyue gave up her job as the Crown Prince's Consort and wanted to exchange marriages with Xu Qingyan. It turned out that she was plotting something here! The Crown Prince of the Duke's Mansion would die sooner or later. If he had no children, wouldn't the Duke's Mansion belong to his illegitimate husband in the future?
Thinking of this, Zhao Shiwen secretly glanced at Pei Jingyuan again. Although he was not as stunningly handsome as Pei Jingchuan, he was still very good-looking.
"Didn't you say you wanted to treat my aunt? Doctor Fu, please go over and check on my aunt!" At this moment, Xu Qingyue also noticed that Zhao Shiwen was stealing glances at Pei Jingyuan. She immediately stepped forward to block Pei Jingyuan and interrupted him, saying that she couldn't let Zhao Shiwen snatch her husband from her!
"Yes, Doctor Fu, you should go over and take a look!" At this time, Pei Jingyuan finally reacted and urged Doctor Fu.
Now he just wanted to cure his aunt's illness quickly, and then let Doctor Fu examine Pei Jingchuan's body. Only by knowing Pei Jingchuan's current condition, he would know what food to arrange to induce the toxicity in his body to recur.
Doctor Fu walked up to Xu Fengping carrying a box and stretched out his hand to feel her pulse. Xu Fengping was not afraid and immediately pretended to be weak and lay down.
Anyway, several doctors had come to the Duke's Mansion to treat her, but she insisted that she was not feeling well. In the end, they could not do anything to her, but just prescribed some medicine and left. This time must be the same.
After Doctor Fu placed his hand on Xu Fengping's pulse, he frowned and looked at Xu Fengping meaningfully. Sure enough, this woman was pretending to be sick! These women, they do these things all day long just to fight in the house, but this woman is not the Duke's woman, why is she pretending to be sick?
He often moved around among these women, knowing that even if he exposed her for faking illness, she would definitely not admit it, but he also needed to prove his medical skills.
So, he suddenly had an idea and said, "This lady's condition is a bit serious. I can prescribe some medicine for her, but she also needs acupuncture. Her condition is not good now. I will use my unique acupuncture method first, which will make her feel five times better!"
