Chapter 2: Snatching the Person Back from the Hands of the King of Hell
There are all kinds of strange things in the world. Now she is looking back on her past life through someone else's body, and all kinds of emotions are piling up in Jiang Yunzheng's heart.
The Xu family, Qi Yunshen...it's been four years.
She will never show mercy when it comes to revenge, and she will never let go of what she deserves.
The room was simply furnished with dull furniture and was visibly empty. Looking out, there was a cenotaph under the osmanthus tree in the yard. The maid Hongyu was happily taking down the white banner hanging in the room.
In order not to alert the enemy, Jiang Yunzheng did not ask any further questions.
Just then, there was a noise in the yard. A woman in a gorgeous pink dress came over, followed by a little girl in a pink shirt.
"Mom, there really is a ghost! Jiang Yunzheng is back from the dead!"
Qin twisted her body, covered her nose with a handkerchief, and glared at Jiang Yunzheng with her charming peach blossom eyes:
"Oh, Madam, if you really die next time, please let us know in advance. I know you and your mother are weak, but don't try to scare the people in the mansion by coming back to life. It's unlucky all day long!"
As she spoke, Qin raised her hand and asked Doctor Zhou, the court physician, to take Jiang Yunzheng's pulse.
"Young Madam is already seriously ill and beyond help. I can only prescribe some warming and nourishing medicine for her. She needs to get through one day at a time."
After the doctor finished talking nonsense, he met a pair of cold eyes. Doctor Zhou's heart skipped a beat, and then he heard Jiang Yunzheng say, "Sorry to bother you, doctor."
"You're too polite, young madam." After saying that, Doctor Zhou looked at Qin and nodded again.
Shi Xiaoya snorted and sneered, "Jiang Yunzheng, what's the point of trying so hard to marry into the Shi family? You don't have that fate—"
Jiang Yunzheng raised the corners of his lips, and there was a chilling coldness in his eyes.
Shi Xiaoya met Jiang Yunzheng's cold gaze, stopped talking for a moment, and hid behind Qin.
Qin glanced at Jiang Yunzheng unhappily, "Alright, I'm busy and won't disturb the young lady's rest. Xiaoya, watch her drink the medicine."
Hongyu came back quickly with the medicine.
Shi Xiaoya stood by the bed with her hands folded: "Drink it quickly, I still have to go shopping for jewelry."
A bitter taste filled the air at the tip of Jiang Yunzheng's nose. He stared at the dark medicinal soup and sneered in his heart.
This morning, the original owner woke up vomiting blood, which means his time has come. If he drinks this bowl of medicine again, even the Great Luo Immortal cannot save him.
Suddenly, the medicine bowl tilted and the black medicine soup spilled all over the quilt.
Jiang Yunzheng's voice was weak: "It's all my fault. I didn't hold it firmly."
Shi Xiaoya's face darkened: "Do you know that I'm in a hurry?"
Hongyu didn't understand what was going on, so she quickly said, "Young Madam, then I'll go make another bowl."
"Hongyu, increase the heat to boil the medicine so that the fourth lady won't have to wait too long." Jiang Yunzheng said, and then said to Shi Xiaoya, "If you're in a hurry, you can go first."
Shi Xiaoya snorted coldly, pulled her handkerchief and sat on a chair nearby, "I won't."
Jiang Yunzheng raised her eyebrows slightly, but said nothing.
After a while, Shi Xiaoya's maid hurried into the room and whispered a few words in Shi Xiaoya's ear. Shi Xiaoya's face lit up with joy, then she glanced at Jiang Yunzheng hesitantly, and quickly made up her mind and said, "I have something important to do, otherwise I would definitely watch you drink the medicine!"
Jiang Yunzheng lowered her eyes and hummed casually.
After Shi Xiaoya and her servant left, Jiang Yunzheng went to the small kitchen.
Hongyu stood up with a palm-leaf fan in her hand: "Young Madam, the medicine is ready."
Jiang Yunzheng nodded, glanced at the residue in the medicine furnace, and then poured the medicine soup into the泔水袋.
The fire destroyed the properties of Qianji poison. Even if Shi Xiaoya didn't leave, there would be no problem with the medicine Jiang Yunzheng drank.
"Young Madam..."
"The prescription is wrong."
Hongyu was originally the head maidservant of the Song family. A year ago, Jiang Yunzheng's only personal maid left the house to get married. Qin was unwilling to assign another maid to Qihuaju, and her mother-in-law Song was also worried about others, so she gave Hongyu to Jiang Yunzheng.
Hongyu reacted quickly and her face turned pale.
"Young Madam, the medicine you drank earlier..."
Jiang Yunzheng's expression was calm and she didn't want to say much: "Just drink it."
Hongyu's eyes were filled with disbelief. "If the prescription is wrong, it will kill people! But that was written by Doctor Zhou. Could it be Qin?"
"Doctor Zhou's medical skills are not very good, so let's put this aside for now."
The little girl's mind worked quickly, and her emotions were all written on her face. Jiang Yunzheng patted the little girl's head, put away all the medicine residue, and then leaned against the pillar with no strength left, her face flushed with coughing.
This body is really too weak.
Leaving Hongyu to look after the yard, Jiang Yunzheng went to Qingfengyuan, the home of her mother-in-law, Mrs. Song.
At the door of the main house in Qingfeng Courtyard, Mrs. Yang was wiping her eyes. When she saw Jiang Yunzheng, she hurried over to help him.
"Madam, Doctor Zhou just came to treat him, and he has woken up now."
The person who had just been put into the coffin came back to life in the blink of an eye. It was normal for Mrs. Song to faint from fright.
Jiang Yunzheng nodded.
When the heavy door curtain was lifted, the charcoal fire inside made Jiang Yunzheng cough again.
Song's face was pale and she looked like she was about to die.
Jiang Yunzheng's eyes suddenly turned red, she could clearly feel that this was the original owner's subconscious emotion.
"mother."
Song smiled and said, "Yun Zheng, it's good that you woke up. Mother knew you would live a long life. I just dreamed that Chao Qing was still here, and he was painting for us in the yard, but..."
As she spoke, Song began to cry.
Jiang Yunzheng quickly wiped away Song's tears, "Mom, don't worry, I'm here, you'll be fine."
She held onto Song's wrist. Song also had the Thousand Machine Poison in her body. With Song's body, it was a blessing that she could hold on until now.
Damn Qin!
Mrs. Yang came over with the medicine, "Madam, the medicine is not hot anymore."
Jiang Yunzheng: "Wait."
Jiang Yunzheng smelled the medicine, took the medicine bowl, and poured it directly into the flowerpot on the shelf.
Song was stunned: "Yun Zheng, what are you doing..."
Jiang Yunzheng held Song's wrist tightly, "Mother, that medicine is poisonous. We can't drink it. I'll go out of the house to get the medicine later. You must wait for me."
Song was shocked. "Yun Zheng, what's going on? How did you find out?"
Jiang Yunzheng: "Mother, don't you know who Qin is? How could she be so sincere in healing us?"
Song had her suspicions and secretly consulted a doctor, but the doctor could not find out what was wrong.
Before Jiang Yunzheng left, she reminded Mrs. Yang: "Don't touch anything sent by outsiders."
Song looked at Jiang Yunzheng's back worriedly, with a bad feeling in her heart.
Jiang Yunzheng had just walked a short distance out of the yard when she was stopped by Mrs. Yang.
Mother Yang handed the banknote to Jiang Yunzheng: "Young Madam, this is what Madam meant."
In recent years, Qin has been in charge of the household expenses, wearing gold and silver herself, and giving less and less to Song and Jiang Yunzheng. On weekdays, Song has to supplement the allowance herself. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are both sicker than the other and can't even get out of bed. How can they fight with Qin again?
Jiang Yunzheng didn't refuse, because her house was so dilapidated and she knew she had no money.
Jiang Yunzheng changed her clothes and said to Hongyu, "I'm going out of the house for a while. Keep it a secret. I'll be back soon. If anyone wants to see me, tell them I'm resting."
Hongyu was worried: "Young Madam, how about I go with you."
Jiang Yunzheng shook her head: "You guard the yard."
Qihuaju and Qingfengyuan are relatively remote. Jiang Yunzheng followed the location Hongyu said and quickly found the dog hole and crawled out.
Song is now breathing in more than breathing out, and he only has a few days to live at most.
Jiang Yunzheng needs two more medicines to snatch the person back from the hands of the King of Hell.
