Chapter 596: Anger
Zhulan took the letter and went back to the backyard. She opened the letter without changing her clothes. She clenched her hand holding the letter, and her heart felt heavy.
Boss Zhou hurriedly supported his mother, "Mom, are you okay?"
Zhulan sat and pressed her forehead, "It's okay."
Zhou Laoda took the letter and read it quickly. His grandmother was seriously ill. "Mom, I'm going to Lizhou City."
Zhulan signaled to the eldest brother to go down first. Boss Zhou opened his mouth but finally stepped back. At this time, mother needed some quiet time.
Zhulan felt bad. She treated her original parents as her own parents. She had been writing to Lizhou all the time. Her head was aching. Her mother had been in poor health since she had a serious illness. Even though she had been sending her expensive medicinal herbs, her mother only looked good on the surface. She felt like she was leaking something inside. No matter how much she took, it was useless.
Zhulan had a premonition that she would not survive this time. If her mother had not been seriously ill before, she would have some confidence that she would recover. Now, Zhulan burst into tears without realizing it.
Mrs. Song opened her mouth and said, "Madam, are you okay?"
Zhulan took a handkerchief and wiped her tears. Her voice became much hoarse. "It's okay. I'll lie down for a while."
Mrs. Song hurriedly got up to get a change of clothes.
In the first house, Li had just finished teaching her son a lesson when the head of the household came back with a bad look on his face, "Didn't you accompany your mother to the Min residence? Are you embarrassed that you look so bad?"
Zhou Laoda shook his head and said, "There's a letter from Lizhou saying that grandma is seriously ill and can't survive."
Li sighed, feeling very sad. She had the best impression of her maternal grandparents. Thinking of her deceased grandmother, Li sat on the chair and thought, "Why didn't this good person live longer?"
Boss Zhou, "When Wu Dong passed away, most of my grandmother's Ming was lost."
Li felt even more upset, "Did mother say anything?"
"Mom didn't say anything, that's why I was worried."
He knew from a young age how good his grandmother was to his family. During times of war, it was his grandparents who protected them and kept their family safe.
Li hardened her heart and said, "I will copy the scriptures. I have accompanied my mother to the temple several times. I have copied many scriptures in the hope of keeping my family safe."
Boss Zhou shook Li's hand and said, "Then copy more."
Li, ".......How much did you copy?"
Boss Zhou didn't understand this. "I remember it was Changzhi who proposed it last time. Should I go ask Changzhi?"
Li held the head of the family's hand and said, "No, no need. I don't think Changzhi understands. I will go ask the people who worship Buddha."
Boss Zhou's hand was a little painful. Li was still afraid of the fourth brother, and then he fell silent. He was also quite afraid of the fourth brother.
In the afternoon, the Zhou family called a doctor. Zhulan woke up with a fever and didn't even have the strength to sit. Zhulan's body was weak after giving birth to a child, and even though she was well, she had actually always been weak.
This time, all my worries suddenly burst out.
Mr. Zhou waited for the doctor to feel his pulse, and was so anxious that he turned around and around. When the doctor stood up, he asked, "Doctor, what's the situation?"
The doctor is the best doctor in Jinzhou, and the Zhou family has always used him. "You are depressed and angry, and your wife needs to be taken care of. I will prescribe a prescription and you can boil it and drink it first."
Zhou Lao Da looked at his mother who closed her eyes. Even after hearing what the doctor said, he was still panicked. His mother was fine in the morning, but now she was lying down. He asked the doctor to be on standby and asked the second son to go get the medicine himself.
Su Xuan was sitting because she was pregnant. She looked at the room full of people and frowned. "Brother, sister-in-law and younger sister, please stay. The rest of you can go. There are too many people in the room."
Boss Zhou looked at his serious brother and sister-in-law and felt scared. Now his brother and sister-in-law looked serious and full of momentum, worthy of being the county lord. "Let's all go back."
Su Xuan was the county lord, and Zhao wanted to stay but didn't dare to ask, so she could only leave with her daughter.
Wu Ning also left with Yu Lu.
This time there were fewer people in the room, the windows were open, and the air in the room was much more airy and comfortable.
Su Xuan said to her eldest brother, "Brother, have you sent someone to tell Dad?"
Boss Zhou, "........"
He felt that he was doomed, and was so anxious and angry that he forgot to tell his father.
Su Xuan fell silent as she watched her eldest brother ask the servant to deliver the message. The whole family couldn't do without the mother-in-law. If something really bad happened and the eldest sister-in-law wasn't doing well, the eldest brother could still take responsibility, but Bai was seriously injured. The second brother was the same as the eldest brother. The third brother would be better at home, but it was a pity that he was not here.
The eldest sister-in-law and the second sister-in-law cannot support the entire Zhou family. The eldest sister-in-law is not so complicated, and the second sister-in-law is too short-sighted.
Fortunately, the younger sister is supporting the Zhou family. However, Su Xuan touched her belly and found out that her mother-in-law is sick, so she has to attend some banquets on her behalf.
In the government office, Zhou Shuren overturned the inkstone when he heard the servant's words, and stood up in panic, "Go back to the government office."
Fortunately, it was just behind the government office. Zhou Shuren trotted back to the mansion and saw Zhulan lying there as soon as he entered the room. There was nothing in his mind and only Zhulan in his eyes.
Zhou Shuren ran away from the government office, and soon everyone in the office got the news and knew that Zhulan was sick.
Mr. Wang sighed, "I have worked with Mr. Zhou for so long, and this is the first time I have seen Mr. Zhou panicking."
It was as if the sky had fallen down. He witnessed with his own eyes the feelings that Lord Zhou had for Yang.
Lord Wang, "Yes, it's the first time I've seen it."
At the Zhou Mansion, Zhou Shuren didn't hear what the boss said. He just called Zhulan's name over and over again. He held Zhulan's hands with both hands. The warmth from her hands made him feel at ease. God knows what he was thinking when he heard that Zhulan was unconscious.
Li pulled the head of the family hard, saying, "Shut up, father-in-law won't listen to you now, or he'll get angry."
Boss Zhou finally shut up and looked at his father. In all these years, except for his son Changzhong, he had never seen his father lose his composure like this. His neat hair was now messed up due to jogging.
Dad called Mom over and over again, and Big Boss Zhou felt a lump in his throat. The relationship between Dad and Mom was too deep.
Su Xuan stared at her father-in-law in a daze. To be honest, she always thought that her father-in-law was a magical man. His desire to get promoted and make money had never changed. Her mother-in-law was a rare beauty in the world, but her father-in-law only cared about her mother-in-law. She had been married for more than a year and had seen her father-in-law and mother-in-law get along with each other many times. Not only did they have a tacit understanding, but they got along as well as one person.
Su Xuan curled the corners of her mouth. With her father-in-law and mother-in-law as role models, the men in the Zhou family are indeed good.
Zhou Laoer came in with the medicine soup, and Xue Han took it, "Dad, it's time for Mom to take the medicine. I'll feed her the medicine."
Zhou Shuren finally came to his senses after hearing the medicine. He took the medicine without worrying about the heat on his hands and said, "I'll feed it to you."
Turning back to look at his sons and daughters-in-law in the house, he noticed that his biological son was not there, "Where's Changzhong?"
Boss Zhou paused, "Changzhong was crying because he was scared, and Mrs. Song was comforting him!"
The little guy was so scared that he kept crying.
Zhou Shuren was relieved and said to Zhou Laodao: "Okay, you all can go back now."
Chang Zhi's mouth twitched. Dad only noticed mom and younger brother. No, he also noticed older brother. He was completely ignored!
Zhou Shuren carefully fed Zhulan the medicine. Zhulan was awakened by the bitter taste and opened her eyes with difficulty, "Water, give me water quickly, it's too bitter."
My stomach is churning. This is going to be really bitter, so bitter that I want to vomit.
Zhou Shuren heaved a sigh of relief when he saw Zhulan woke up and still had the energy to ask for water. He then took a sip and spat it out. It was indeed bitter. How much gunpowder was put in it?
