Chapter 643 Trust
There are many hospitals in the capital, and Zhulan did not specifically look for a familiar clinic. She chose a nearby clinic. Fortunately, she arrived early and the doctor was not sent away.
There were many people seeking medical treatment in the hospital, especially children. Zhulan did not let Changzhong go down with them to avoid infection.
The doctor examined Shi Qing's pulse, and Shi Qing could not help coughing a few times. After waiting for a while, the doctor said, "This young master is in very poor health. He must have been ill a few days ago."
Shi Qing suppressed his cough and said, "Yes."
The doctor had a better idea in his mind, "Young Master's illness has not been completely cured. Now he has to rely on his willpower to hold on."
After saying this, the doctor felt deeply moved, don't underestimate the scholar because he looks weak and frail, at this time of year his perseverance is amazing.
Zhulan said, "Please prescribe some medicine. Yes, please prescribe some more conditioning prescriptions."
The doctor smiled and said to Shi Qing, "Young Master, you must take good care of yourself in the future. When a child is sick, the pain is felt by the mother."
Shi Qing was stunned. He wanted to say no, but inexplicably he didn't want to explain a single word.
Zhulan didn't react. There were several people in her family whose surname was not Zhou, and taking them out would lead to misunderstandings. There were so many misunderstandings that she was too lazy to explain.
Zhulan didn't say anything, but Shi Qing took a secret glance at her and couldn't help but smile.
The doctor quickly wrote out a prescription, and Chang Lian took it to get the medicine. Afterwards, Zhu Lan asked the doctor to examine Chang Lian and Rong Chuan and also prescribed some tonic medicine.
Zhulan paid the money, and people came to the clinic one after another to ask for doctors.
As soon as she walked out of the clinic, Zhulan ran into Miss Yao Er. Zhulan was stunned, "Miss Yao Er."
Yao Yao was stunned. She had deliberately chosen a clinic far from home. Then she realized that this place was very close to the examination hall. "Mrs. Yang, you have come to the capital to accompany me for the examination."
Zhulan smiled and said, "Yes, it's a coincidence today."
This place is very far away from West City!
Yao Yao didn't need to explain, and nodded slightly, "I have something else to do, please come in."
Zhulan nodded, "We will go back first."
When they were almost in front of the carriage, Shi Qing said, "I'm sorry to bother you today, Auntie. I'm going back home too."
Zhu Lan looked at Shi Qing. She was not trying to gain favor or have any purpose. She just knew that when you are sick, you tend to think too much, especially when you are alone. She has experienced this before. Shi Qing's father doesn't love a motherless child. Although she looks particularly hard on the outside, she can also be sensitive and soft. "Let's go back together. It's a good opportunity to visit the Zhou Mansion in the capital."
Having said that, Zhulan got on the carriage first.
Shi Qing smiled, and Chang Lian patted Shi Qing on the shoulder, "Let's go."
At the door of the clinic, Yao Yao watched the carriage leave, pressed her brows, and held the purchased medicine in her hand. She found an excuse to go out today. It took her two whole months to get all the medicines. Some were brought back by servants, and some were bought by herself. She only bought one kind each time.
The maid said, "Miss, Master Zhou's wife won't say too much, right?"
Yao Yao said, "No, let's go back too."
She has a bigger secret to ask Yang Gongren, so she will definitely not say more about this little thing.
Yao Yao was happy in her heart. The medicine was ready. It was a medicine that would not harm the body but would treat weakness. It was for her younger brother. Her younger brother was older and she did not want him to become a pawn. Thinking of the two new adopted brothers in the mansion, she thought, "Dad is really hardworking. In just two years, many children were born in the mansion one after another."
Now that there are more sons, there is even less room for the already unpopular younger brother. As for the antidote, Yao Yao closed her eyes and waited.
At the Zhou Mansion, hot water had been prepared early, and Shi Qing and Zhu Lan had been arranged to go to the kitchen.
Today's dishes should be something lighter. It's not easy to eat green vegetables in the capital city in winter. The chefs in the mansion have to cook the cabbage in various ways.
An hour later, everyone sat together to eat. Shi Qing had already drunk rice porridge and medicine soup as a base, and his complexion looked much better.
Zhulan said, "It's over now, don't think about it anymore, all you have to do is rest well and work hard to get your body back in shape."
Chang Lian's stomach had already growled, "Yes, Mom."
Zhulan started to pick up her chopsticks, and then the younger generation followed suit. They had a lively meal, and Zhulan also ate half a bowl of rice. There were fewer people these days, so she ate less!
After everyone went back to rest, Zhulan wrote a letter to Zhou Shuren, telling him that the children were all doing well and they just needed to wait for their grades.
What Beijing is most concerned about right now is grades. The average age of this class is relatively low, so it is worth attracting.
The next day, the Zhou family received some invitations. Zhulan looked through the invitations. Some were directed at Zhou Shuren, and some were from people who wanted to take the opportunity to make friends. Zhulan screened the invitations. She checked the ones that had questions and didn't go to the ones that she had doubts about. For the sake of caution, Zhulan also asked Deng Xiucai to check the rest.
Finally, Zhulan selected several posts, some from the capital, some from other places, all of which had a long history.
After checking everything, Zhulan gave it to Changlian. Changlian took the note and said with a sigh, "Mom, you are so careful."
Zhulan said, "You don't understand."
Son, the water here is too deep. I’m afraid that you and Rongchuan will be used as a ladder by someone to get trapped.
Chang Lian did understand a little. If she was afraid that he and Rongchuan would be plotted against, she wouldn't have checked three generations. However, he also learned a lot. When mother checks people, she likes to check three generations to check their living habits. "Mom, Rongchuan and I will be careful."
Zhulan had already carefully selected them, so she felt somewhat confident. "Yes."
Chang Lian accepted the invitation and said, "Today is Dad's day off."
"So? What do you want to say?"
Chang Lian laughed dryly, "My son thought that Dad would come to the capital."
He seemed to be talking to his dad, thinking that his dad would come!
Zhulan's eyes were full of smiles. Zhou Shuren was such a father that his sons were afraid that he would depend on him, but they also loved him. "Your father will not come to the capital."
Chang Lian felt a little disappointed, "Mom, my son is gone."
"Go ahead."
In Jinzhou, Zhou Shuren had a rare day off. He lay in a rocking chair, drinking tea and reading a book, feeling quite comfortable.
Wang Ju followed the housekeeper in and saw Master Zhou like this. "Master Zhou is so relaxed. You don't worry about your grades at all!"
Zhou Shuren put down the book in his hand, "Why did you come to me when you were not at home being a filial father to your son?"
Lord Wang pulled a chair over and sat down, "I want to chat with Lord Zhou."
Zhou Shuren was rocking in the rocking chair, feeling really comfortable. "Goodbye, please don't see me off. Don't disturb me while I'm resting."
Now he just wanted to lie down leisurely and clear his mind.
Wang Ju choked. Lord Zhou was really rude to him. He was happy that this was a sign of trust, but he was upset that Lord seemed to be increasingly disliking him. "Lord, do you have any idea of Chang Lian's performance?"
Zhou Shuren knew clearly why Wang Ju was so concerned. If Chang Lian passed the imperial examination this time, it would not only have an impact on the Zhou family, but also on the Wang family. The two families had already privately engaged, and Chang Lian would not have to wait for three years this time, nor would he have to wait for Chang Zhi and Ming Yun. It takes a lot of time to cultivate the younger generation, and the future is too vague and no one can predict it for sure.
That's why Chang Lian received so much attention. If Chang Lian did well in the exam, the foundation of the Zhou family would be more stable.
