In Zezhi Cottage, Hua Yuanshan held her breath and rushed into the inner room. As soon as she entered the door, she turned around impatiently and looked at Aunt Su who was following behind her.
"mother--"
Aunt Su raised her hand to stop her from talking. After everyone left, she shook her head helplessly, "When will you change your impatience?"
"Mom, is that old hag really not sick?" Hua Yuanshan asked anxiously.
That was Doctor Wu! How could he make a wrong diagnosis? If that old hag didn't die, how long would her mother have to wait before she could be the legitimate daughter? How could she be the legitimate daughter?
"Put your heart at ease." Aunt Su said unhappily, "If she wasn't sick, how could she be coaxed to another house to worship Buddha so easily?"
"Then..." Hua Yuanshan stammered, looking at Aunt Su eagerly.
"Mother, I guess there must be someone who wants to make that old hag just like us..." Aunt Su raised her hand and stroked her neck, her almond-shaped eyes wide open with a fierce look.
Hua Yuanshan touched her neck and whispered, "Let her die?"
Aunt Su walked to the table and sat down, poured herself a cup of herbal tea, and sighed regretfully: "It's a pity that I don't know who it is."
Anyone who can mobilize the imperial physician must be of very high status. It would be nice if the mother and daughter could get in touch with this person.
"Mom, could it be the Third Prince?" Hua Yuanshan suddenly lowered her voice and asked excitedly.
Who else could help her except the Third Prince? Maybe the Third Prince also knew about the difficulties this old woman had caused her and wanted to help her vent her anger?
Aunt Su was slightly surprised, but after thinking about it, she felt that this was quite possible.
"The status of a concubine's daughter is still too low..." Aunt Su said carefully: "If it is true that the Third Prince is helping you in this matter, maybe it is to help you become a legitimate daughter as soon as possible..."
It is only natural for the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion to be the consort of the Third Prince, and they are a perfect match...
Thinking of this, Aunt Su couldn't contain her joy and nodded again and again.
"It seems that the Third Prince really holds you in his heart and even considers things like this for you." Aunt Su sighed.
"Oh, mother..." Hua Yuanshan said shyly, her face flushed with shame: "My daughter is not even a marriageable girl yet! I want to stay with you for two more years!"
"My dear Shan'er is about to get married." Aunt Su smiled with satisfaction.
When she ended up in a brothel, she thought her life would be rotten in the quagmire. Fortunately, she never believed in fate!
Now, not only is she favored by the Prime Minister, but her daughter is also going to marry into the royal family and become the third prince's consort!
"Shan'er, at Princess Changle's birthday banquet this time, you must try your best to win the heart of the Third Prince. Don't let that little bitch get there first. Do you understand?" Aunt Su taught patiently.
Hua Yuanshan was half shy and half happy. She lowered her head and nodded, with a happy smile on her lips.
…
As the night deepened, Hua Yuanzhao lay in the bathtub with his head tilted back, still thinking about Madam Hua's illness.
For her, curing the disease is not difficult, but the difficult part is to see a doctor according to the methods of this era.
Apart from anything else, if this infusion bag is taken out more than once, I'm afraid Madam Hua will be the first one to be unwilling.
But this insulin has to be injected to be effective...
At the same time, under the cover of night, the man in black quietly landed on the roof.
He bent down and looked around, and saw that there was no one guarding the yard, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
“Why are the lights still on at this time?” the man in black muttered, carefully lifting the tiles.
The house had fallen into disrepair after years of neglect, and tiny bits of sand and gravel fell when the tiles were removed.
The man in black held his breath and looked down more carefully, just in time to meet a pair of bright eyes.
The moment their eyes met, the man in black stood there in a daze, a heat rushing to his forehead and an itchy feeling in his nose.
Hua Yuanzhao's heart trembled, and he suddenly pulled the clothes hanging beside him to cover himself. After reaching his hand through the sleeve, he found a small spray bottle in his palm.
The man in black finally reacted and subconsciously stood up to escape, but his feet stumbled uncontrollably and he fell forward in a panic.
Hua Yuanzhao watched the visitor and the tiles falling to the ground. Before he could see the visitor's face clearly, the candle in the room suddenly went out.
She took the opportunity to wrap herself in clothes hastily, and the first thing she did after getting out of the bathtub was to pick up the homemade dumbbells and swing them at the person who came.
The man in black was caught off guard and subconsciously blocked it with his hand, groaning when he was hit.
Hua Yuanzhao took the opportunity to take out the spray bottle, held his breath and sprayed it lightly at the man's face. The pungent smell of hydrochloric acid immediately dissipated.
The man in black was choked and bent over and coughed. Hua Yuanzhao swung the dumbbell and hit the man on the head, forcing him to run around the room.
The thief was cornered and endured the blow with gritted teeth. He pinched Hua Yuanzhao's wrist holding the weapon with one hand and threw her to the ground.
Hua Yuanzhao was so nervous that her heart was pounding. She opened her mouth to shout, but the man suddenly covered her mouth, not giving her a chance to speak.
