Feng Xiangrong was surprised, "It's a skirt! The color is pretty."
"Where can I find a skirt like this!" Fen Dai said as she backed away, as if the skirt was poisoned and she refused to touch it again. "Take it away! Take it away! Feng Yuheng, are you trying to hurt me? Wearing a skirt like this will rub off your flesh!"
Feng Yuheng looked innocent: "Fourth sister, how could you misunderstand my kindness? This is indeed the clothes that Li Ma, who was beside my mother, personally brought to me from the palace yesterday. How could the mansion give bad clothes to their own daughter? Fourth sister, stop joking."
"Who are you kidding?" Feng Fendai was anxious, "I don't want this ghost thing of yours, you are deliberately trying to hurt me!"
"How could I harm my sister? This is really a good thing that Madam Li brought back!"
"Get lost!"
"Shut up!" The old lady couldn't stand it anymore and glared at Feng Yuheng fiercely, "You're making a fuss as soon as you get here. How can a concubine's daughter of the Feng Mansion be so shameless!" In one sentence, she also scolded Feng Fendai. "Look at Shenyu, she is dignified and steady, never happy with things, nor sad with herself. Look at yourselves again!"
"Grandma!" Fendai was so aggrieved, "It was Feng Yuheng who wanted to hurt me with a torn skirt that could cut people, why didn't you punish her?"
"Fourth sister, please stop being unreasonable." Feng Chenyu tried to dissuade her, "How can you talk to Grandmother like that!"
The old lady was so angry that she slammed her staff on the ground and tried to stand up. But her waist was not strong enough and she sat back down with a cry of "ouch" as soon as she leaned forward.
Seeing that the old lady's back pain had recurred, the others tactfully stopped arguing. Feng Chenyu quickly came over to support her and asked, "Grandma, do you want to ask a doctor to come and see her?"
The old lady waved her hands and said, "It's no use. This disease recurs every year. The bitter medicine they prescribed has never worked."
Chenyu adjusted the soft pillow behind her and helped the old lady lean back little by little, "Do you think this will work? If not, just stack the two soft pillows together."
The old lady waved her hand, "No, this is fine."
Feng Yuheng observed the pain in the old lady for a while, and then he had an idea in his mind. After thinking for a while, he said, "Grandma, this disease is from the waist all the way down, through the back of the thigh, the outside of the calf, and all the way to the foot. There is a stretching pain? And the pain will be aggravated when sneezing and coughing?"
The old lady didn't want to pay attention to her, but the symptoms Feng Yuheng described were exactly the same as hers, so she nodded subconsciously, "How did you know?"
Feng Yuheng didn't explain, but just looked at the two soft pillows and continued, "This disease is called lumbar disc herniation in medicine. The initial symptom is just back pain, but if grandma has pain in her lower limbs, then it is considered a serious illness."
The old lady was frightened and stunned when she heard that it was a serious illness. She asked, "Can it be cured?"
"It depends on the situation." She told the truth, "But when you are sick, you must stay in bed. This is the most basic and necessary thing."
In fact, in cases where the pain is so severe that even the heel hurts, surgery is the best solution, but she would never tell a group of ancient people about using a knife to cut open the skin and flesh and then re-set the bones, so she could only tell them some physical therapy methods.
"You must stay in bed for at least 20 days, and you are not allowed to bend over or hold anything during this time. Also," Feng Yuheng took another look at the two soft pillows.
Chenyu was a thoughtful person. She noticed her gaze and started to make a plan in her mind.
Then Feng Yuheng said, "You should sleep on a hard bed, not a soft one. A soft pillow like the one that Big Sister brought is the most taboo for this disease. The more you use it, the worse it will get. But it's not Big Sister's fault. She must have brought it to Grandmother without knowing it."
When the old lady heard this, her face darkened. If there was anything that could make her displease Feng Chenyu, who was related to the future of the Feng family, it could only be her life.
When Chenyu saw this scene, she knelt down immediately: "Grandma, I really don't know! This pillow is made of the best material, and it is used to honor you, grandma!" Then she turned to Feng Yuheng: "Where did my second sister hear these medical theories? Has it been confirmed by a doctor?"
Feng Yuheng shook his head. "If you are worried, you can ask a doctor to come and see if what he said is the same as what I said. In addition, don't ask the doctor who treated grandma before but didn't give her a correct diagnosis and treatment. Switch to someone with better medical skills."
She didn't want to say anything more, so she leaned over to the old lady and sat down next to Feng Xiangrong.
The old lady hadn't heard enough. She asked Aunt Zhao beside her to take away the soft pillow with disdain, and asked: "Besides staying in bed, is there any other way?"
Feng Yuheng was very satisfied with the old lady's diligence and curiosity. "There is also massage, but it must be done by an experienced doctor, otherwise it is easy to get the opposite effect. Another thing is to use effective external medicine, but good medicine is hard to find." Having said this, she paused and glanced at Feng Chenyu who was still kneeling. "Grandma, please let my elder sister get up." While speaking, she did not ignore the slight gloating on Fendai's face.
She couldn't help but sigh that children in ancient times were so precocious. How could a child of only ten years old have so many ideas?
The old lady didn't really mean to make Chenyu kneel, but she was very careful about her life, and when she heard the severity of the illness, she got angry. Now that she had calmed down a little, she quickly helped Chenyu up: "Hurry up, grandma doesn't blame you."
Chenyu's eyes were slightly red. "Thank you, grandma. Don't worry, I will definitely find a famous doctor to treat you."
"Good." The old lady patted the back of her hand, "What a thoughtful child."
Feng Chenyu smiled caringly, and then as if she suddenly remembered something, she continued, "I was negligent. How could I forget that Second Sister's grandfather was the most famous imperial physician in the palace, and Second Sister also learned some of it from him when she was a child."
When she said this, Feng Fendai immediately responded, "What is the most famous imperial physician? Didn't he kill the imperial concubine and was demoted to a deserted state by the emperor? Grandmother, you can't listen to Feng Yuheng's nonsense. How good can a mediocre doctor teach you?"
Feng Chenyu reminded her in time: "You should call her Second Sister."
Fendai just said "Oh" and didn't call out again.
When the Yao family was mentioned, the old lady's mood instantly fell again. Yes, he killed the imperial concubine in the palace. How can he be called a famous doctor?
I had believed what Feng Yuheng said before, but now I changed sides immediately. I waved to Zhao Ma beside me and said, "Go and get the soft pillow that Chen Yu sent back. I really can't do without some cushion on my waist."
Feng Yuheng didn't argue with them. She had said it anyway, and it was none of her business whether they believed it or not. Moreover, she had a good grasp of people's rebellious psychology, especially the elderly and children. The more you forbid her to do something, the more she would do it. In all likelihood, she would have to put a few more layers of quilts under the bed tonight. Didn't she say she wanted a hard board? She wanted the softer the better.
Then let this old lady suffer. When she becomes too ill, she will find an opportunity to cheat them.
There was a moment of silence in the room. Feng Yuheng felt that this was a bit awkward, so he glanced at Man Xi.
Man Xi understood what he meant, raised his hand and grabbed his neck, pretending to be in great pain while doing so.
Huang Ling was the first to see it, and then she remembered the patches of red she had seen before, so she quickly asked, "Sister Manxi, what's wrong?"
As soon as the little girl opened her mouth, everyone's eyes turned to Manxi again.
Feng Chenyu was also puzzled, "Manxi, if you are not feeling well, you shouldn't follow the Second Young Lady and serve her closely."
Manxi quickly knelt in the middle of the room, bowed to the old lady first, and then said to Feng Chenyu: "Miss, I am not feeling unwell, but my neck is a little itchy."
Feng Xiangrong saw through the trick and asked curiously, "Why are there patches of red on your neck?"
"I don't know. I really don't know anything."
Feng Yuheng suddenly cried out "Ah!", then stood up to look through Manxi's clothes, and then exclaimed, "How could this happen?"
The old lady frowned and glared at her: "What's wrong again?"
Feng Yuheng pointed at Manxi's clothes and said, "This dress is fading!"
The old lady was very angry and rebuked Manxi: "You have been serving in the mansion for many years, how come you don't even know how to wear clothes? Are you a first-class maid in the Feng Mansion wearing faded clothes to walk around? Don't you think it's embarrassing for your master?"
Manxi felt very aggrieved: "Madam, this dress... this dress was given to me by the Second Miss."
kindness?
Everyone's eyes turned to Feng Yuheng again, and they saw that she was particularly aggrieved: "It's true that I gave the reward, but I gave it as a good thing. This dress was given to Aunt Yao by Nanny Li yesterday, saying that it was a new dress specially selected for Aunt Yao by the mansion. Aunt said that we had just arrived and didn't have much money to reward the servants. Unfortunately, one of the three servants was my mother's wet nurse, and the other two were first-class maids around my mother. My aunt and I thought that the clothes given by the mansion were the best things, so we gave this dress to Manxi."
After she said this, everyone understood. It turned out that Shen was deliberately making things difficult for Yao and her daughter, and Feng Yuheng took advantage of her and finally brought the matter to the old lady.
Feng Chenyu felt extremely regretful and secretly glared at Huang Ling, blaming her for being nosy.
Feng Xiangrong was absolutely certain that her second sister had done this on purpose.
There were problems with the two pieces of clothing sent to Liuyuan. Although the first piece was excused by the old lady's back disease, the second piece might not be so easy to fool. Seeing Feng Yuheng still had an aggrieved expression, it was interesting to think about it.
Things have come to this point, and it would be a bit unreasonable for the old lady not to express her opinion. After all, she really loved Feng Yuheng when he was a child, and it was she who personally nodded in agreement when Feng Jinyuan wanted to marry Yao.
At that time, the Yao family was in great favor with the emperor. The Feng family, who had no roots in the capital, married the eldest daughter of the Yao family, which was definitely marrying up. As for Shen, who had taken care of her for many years in her hometown, she only asked Feng Jinyuan to be brought in as a concubine.
Although Yao's belly was not good and she had no children for several years after entering the mansion, Shen gave birth to the eldest son and daughter. But they were not legitimate children after all, so the old lady didn't love them that much. It was not until Yao gave birth to Feng Yuheng that the old lady smiled, and when she gave birth to Feng Zirui, she was even happier.
Unfortunately, the good times did not last long. The Yao family suddenly encountered misfortune and were demoted several levels overnight. Eventually, the entire family was exiled to Huangzhou.
The Feng family made their position known overnight, expelling Yao and supporting Shen to take over.
Thinking about it now, the Yao family’s crimes did not implicate the Feng family, but the Feng family’s treatment of the Yao mother and daughter was chilling.
The old lady was thinking about something, and her facial expression became more and more vivid. Feng Fendai and Feng Xiangrong couldn't understand, but Feng Chenyu was frightened.
Obviously, the old lady's gaze towards Feng Yuheng gradually changed from disgust to relief, and then from relief to pity. If this continues, I'm afraid the Feng Shui of the Feng Mansion will change again.
no!
