Chapter 522 Everyone is shocked
Zhenzhu took Fubao and stood at the door of the warm room, but did not go in because she saw Yuanbao, who was serving beside her, winking at her.
But it did not prevent Zhenzhu and Fubao from hearing the noise in the warm room.
"Rui Yang, why are you so miserable? You only told mother when your face looked like this. Do you want to make mother sad to death?"
The crying voice of Marquis' wife Wang could be clearly heard from the warm room.
Weiyuan Hou Li Yichun is now sixty years old, but he has not yet enjoyed his old age. When the border was fought last year, he was still the commander-in-chief guarding the border. He and Wan Jinshu's father are considered the two pillars of the court. As long as the two of them are there, the border will be safe. It's just that Wan Jinshu's father died of anger because of a villain's frame-up. Now only Li Yichun can hold up the court. However, the young are formidable. The men of the Li and Wan families are more outstanding than the previous generation, and Da Qi can be said to have successors.
The Marquis's wife was four years younger than Marquis Weiyuan and gave birth to three sons and one daughter for him. Marquis Weiyuan never took a concubine in his life and only had his wife. His children were also very capable and each of them held important positions in the court. However, two of his sons went to the border and only one son was in the camp outside the capital.
Usually there are no men in the marquis' mansion, so the women in the mansion are particularly united, and each daughter-in-law is more filial than the other.
At this time, the only daughter of the Marquis, Lady Li Ruiyang, the Prime Minister's wife, was crying in the Marquis's arms, and her three sisters-in-law were sitting below, and they also shed tears.
However, the third sister-in-law wiped her tears for a while, then stood up, walked to Li Ruiyang, and gently patted her sister-in-law on the back.
"Sister, don't be too sad. She's just a woman. Leave her to your sister-in-law for interrogation. Before your third brother went to the battlefield, he told me to support you if you were wronged in your husband's family. How can a girl from our Li family be bullied by them at will? Don't worry, your sister-in-law will definitely seek justice for you."
Third sister-in-law Cao Hua is the daughter of the Minister of War. She has loved wielding swords and guns since she was a child. She and the third son of the Marquis's Mansion, Li Xiutai, are a match made in heaven. She has both the demeanor of a chivalrous woman and the bearing of a lady from a noble family.
Li Ruiyang raised his head from Madam Hou's arms and looked at his third sister-in-law Cao Hua with tearful eyes.
"Don't worry, Third Sister-in-law, I was just kept in the dark by them for a while. I won't let them bully me. The people in our Marquis' Mansion are not soft persimmons. I will avenge this grudge with my own hands. Third Sister-in-law, don't dirty your hands."
The Marquis' wife, Wang, nodded approvingly. They didn't keep weak ones in the Weiyuan Marquis' Mansion. No matter if they were men or women, any of them could stand on their own.
"Well done, you are worthy of being the legitimate daughter of our Marquis Weiyuan."
At this time, the eldest sister-in-law Wei Wan and the second sister-in-law Zhu Jingyao came over and surrounded the mother and daughter.
"Sister, if you need any help from my sister-in-law, just ask. I will definitely not stand idly by."
"And me, your second sister-in-law. Although I am not as capable as your eldest sister-in-law and third brother's wife, I have followed my father since I was a child and have seen him solve many cases. Your situation is obviously premeditated, so we must think long-term." Second sister-in-law Zhu Jingyao is the second daughter of the Dali Temple Minister. She has been a lively person since she was a child. It's true that people from the same family are alike.
Li Ruiyang was deeply moved. Before she got married, several sisters-in-law had already entered the Marquis' Mansion and treated her like their own sister. They had a very good relationship with each other. This time she suffered such a great injustice, and it was impossible for her sisters-in-law to sit idly by.
With the support of his mother's family, Li Ruiyang became more confident. It was just the Prime Minister's Mansion. She was able to support him to the position back then, but now she could trample him into the mud.
"Sisters-in-law, I appreciate your kindness, but this is my family affair. I like to avenge my own grudges. I came back to my parents' home only to tell you in person, so as to avoid being kept in the dark and being used by villains."
"Don't worry, no one in our family is so easy to fool." The marquis's wife wiped her tears, looked at her daughter's face, and couldn't help crying again.
"Ruiyang, since your face is poisoned, let me quietly find a doctor to take a look at you. You can stay in the mansion for a few days."
Li Ruiyang quickly shook his head, "No, mother, you don't have to ask for the imperial physician. I have already found a junior doctor. I came to the Marquis' Mansion just to conceal my whereabouts. I still have to go back to the Prime Minister's Mansion today. I can't alert the enemy."
The Marquis's wife felt sorry for her daughter and didn't want her to suffer. Her daughter was a delicate young lady, and yet she was treated like this. She cursed everyone in the Prime Minister's Mansion in her heart.
"Where is the young doctor you hired?"
Li Ruiyang glanced at Yuanbao, who quickly shouted outside the warm room, "Zhenzhu, bring Fubao in."
Everyone's eyes were focused on the door of the warm room.
Soon, two figures, one big and one small, appeared at the door of the warm room.
Zhenzhu led Fubao to the center of the warm room and bowed slightly, "This servant greets Madam and all the young ladies."
Fubao also imitated Zhenzhu and performed a not-so-standard salute, and almost tripped himself.
She felt that these etiquettes were really troublesome. Her village was better. When people met, they only needed to say hello without any formalities. There was no hierarchy, only respect. There was no need to call each other "servants" like here.
Fubao stood up straight and glanced at all the people who were looking at her.
She couldn't help but be surprised. Why are the people here so good-looking? They look like they came out of a painting.
Unlike the women in their village, who looked like they had not washed their faces all day long.
In fact, people at the border, whether men, women, young or old, have great difficulty in getting water. They may not even take a bath once a year, so it is normal for them not to wash their faces clean.
Fubao moved his little nose and smelled a pleasant fragrance in the house. The whole house was fragrant, not to mention the valuable ornaments and the large screen ornaments, which made Fubao's eyes pop out.
However, the light in her eyes was just one of appreciation. She regarded people and things as beautiful things without any possessiveness. It was purely a child's curiosity.
Li Ruiyang stood up, walked to Fubao, took Fubao's little hand and sat back next to the Marquis's wife.
At this moment, everyone's eyes were on Fubao.
"Mom, this is the little doctor I was talking about."
When Li Ruiyang said this, everyone in the room was shocked. The Marquis's wife said with a hint of anger, "Ruiyang, you are really kidding. How long has this little girl been weaned? How could she know medical skills? Go around the capital and ask around. Even if she is the granddaughter of the Grand Tutor, she hasn't learned to read at her age. How could she know medical skills?"
The Taifu is the current Lu family. Their granddaughter was only seven years old and was known as a talented girl, so all the ladies in the upper class would use her as a reference.
What the Marquis's wife said was not without basis. After all, how many such outstanding women are there in the world?
