Chapter 306: Prince Mu has a hidden illness?
"Madam, wait a moment, let this servant go in and announce it first."
"What are you waiting for?" Chen Chunhua was very panicked. She pulled Qiuyue away and hurried into the room.
Cui followed closely behind.
"Grandmother, why are you here?" Wu Han spoke in a low voice. Chen Chunhua subconsciously walked towards the big bed with light steps.
Seeing Song Mingzhu's pale face and the look of being terminally ill, Chen Chunhua's breathing became tight and her eyes instantly turned red.
What serious illness has Zhuzhu contracted?
Cui was shocked. Why did her sister look like she was about to die?
Chen Chunhua turned around and saw that Wu Han looked even more haggard than at the last family dinner, so she pulled him out of the room.
"Tell me, what disease did your mother have?"
Wu Han couldn't say anything, so he pursed his lips and said nothing.
"Han'er." Cui was anxious. "Hurry up and tell us. Are you trying to make us die of anxiety?"
"I……"
Seeing Wu Han hesitate to speak, Chen Chunhua angrily kicked him and asked, "How long do you plan to keep this secret from us?"
Cui pulled Qiuyue over and said, "You speak."
Wu Han panicked, "Aunt Qiuyue, my mother will be fine. Don't let my grandmother and aunt worry about her."
He was very scared and didn't want the two of them to know the truth.
"Madam, my wife has been poisoned by a Gu. She's already had four attacks. If she attacks three more times, Madam... Madam's life will be in danger."
Chen Chunhua was unsteady and nearly fell, but Cui supported her in time. "Mother, she's talking nonsense. How could my sister be poisoned? From what I can see, she's just seriously ill."
Chen Chunhua calmed down and said, "Qiuyue, you are talking nonsense, right?"
"Old Madam, I'm not talking nonsense. Madam has been poisoned by a Gu. It's a big..."
"Qiuyue!" Wu Han shouted anxiously.
Qiuyue glanced at him and remembered what her ladyship had said to her before she left.
The lady obviously didn't want the Song family to know about her situation.
"What are you yelling about?" Chen Chunhua glared at him. "Qiuyue, tell me quickly. What happened to Zhuzhu?"
"Madam was poisoned by Du Zhihuan's uncle. Du Zhihuan is not Madam's biological daughter, but the daughter of Wu Lingheng's concubine..."
Qiuyue brought up the matter of Wu Han drugging Song Mingzhu and explained the matter in detail to the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
Chen Chunhua's expression changed from shock, anger, regret, heartache, to anxiety and fear. "Have you found the antidote?"
"Not yet, but it should be soon. Suzaku Pavilion is well-known in the martial arts world. There will be news in the next two days. As long as the poison is removed, Madam will be fine."
"What if we can't find someone to remove the poison? After all, that "something" pavilion is full of people who fight and kill. Can they really be trusted? Don't just take the money and not do the job!"
Chen Chunhua's anxiety at this moment did not subside but became more serious.
It was she who harmed Zhuzhu. Why was she so blind to marry Zhuzhu to Wu Lingheng!
Cui quickly tried to comfort her, "Don't worry, mother. Suzaku Pavilion only works for money. We will definitely be able to find someone powerful enough to help your sister-in-law remove the poison."
Chen Chunhua felt relieved after hearing this.
Cui asked again, "Qiuyue, how much money did Zhuque Pavilion receive for finding the person?"
"Not much, at least 500 taels. I also transmogrified some items to make up 1,000 taels for them to go look for the person."
Qiuyue would not tell the truth. Twenty thousand taels. If she told it, Cui would be jealous.
Chen Chunhua: "Old Third Wife, you go back first. I'll stay here. I'll go back when Zhuzhu is well again."
It was already noon when Song Yu, Xiao Chengqian and others entered the city, so they found a relatively good restaurant nearby to have dinner.
After the meal, Xiao Chengqian volunteered to go with Mu Chuqing to send Song Yu to Chaofeng Palace Academy.
"Sister Ye, do you want to go to the Jiang Mansion to see Shulan?"
Du Ye said, "I'd rather not go. I'll bring Sister Yu with me when I regain my sight."
Madam Mu smiled and said, "Okay, I'll go first."
Jiang Mansion
"Madam, Madam Mu is here and has gone to the old lady's yard."
"Is Sister Yu not back yet?"
Caiwei: "He hasn't come back yet. He must have gone directly to Chaofeng Palace Academy and won't be back until the evening."
"Okay, let's go over and see what's going on."
When Mrs. Mu entered the room, she saw a child wearing a black gold ingot mask bowing slightly to her, with a chubby child beside him.
"Children, please don't be polite."
Madam Mu helped the two brothers up and asked, "Shulan, when did you get two more grandchildren?"
"Ha..." Old Madam Jiang said with a smile, "I would like to have two more grandchildren, but Yun Zhou wouldn't give them to me. So I treat the Wen brothers as my grandchildren. Oh, they are the children of Ming En. Shu Ge'er is in poor health and has been raised in the mansion. They come to my room every day to cheer me up. They are much more filial than Guan Chen."
"Grandma Jiang." Wen Shu said, "Brother Guanchen comes to see you every morning and evening. Sometimes he even squeezes in time to come back at noon to have dinner with you and cheer you up. Brother Guanchen is very filial to you."
"Shu'er, why are you so cute and sensible?" Mrs. Jiang reached out to touch his little head and accidentally touched the mask. "Why are you wearing a mask?"
Wen Nuo hurriedly said, "I just put it on my little brother. He is shy and timid. Grandma Jiang, don't worry, you will be able to see our true appearance when you regain your sight."
"Yuqing, these two children of the Wen family are one brave and one timid. It's their first time meeting you, so please don't be offended if they bump into you."
Madam Mu: "These two children are very polite, especially the chubby one who looks so blessed and pleasing to the eye."
"Ha... I was saying these two kids are likable. Yuqing, why did you decide to come to the mansion today?"
"I just came back from Huguo Temple. I missed you so I came to see you. When will your eyesight return?"
"It's almost done. It'll only be a few days. I can see you blurry now, but I can still tell what color clothes you're wearing and what jewelry you're wearing on your head."
"Then congratulations in advance. Then you'll know I'm not lying. Wanwan looks the better she gets..."
As Madam Mu was speaking, she caught a glimpse of Wen Shu's little hand reaching into Madam Jiang's palm, and his thin little body leaned over.
Why do this old man and young boy look so much like grandparents and grandchildren?
Isn’t it a bit unreasonable to wear a mask just because you are shy?
Could it be that he also has a shocking life story?
Mrs. Mu had been traveling for the entire morning and felt a little tired. She didn't stay long before she got up and said goodbye.
When they got outside the courtyard, Jiang Yunwan, who was guarding the courtyard, pulled them aside and said, "I just heard from the servants that you came back from Huguo Temple. You should have seen my sister Yu. Is she happy over there?"
Madam Mu smiled and said, "Everything is fine. Princess Rong and Prince Xiao also went, as did my grandchildren. Du Zhihuan also went to burn incense. I saw them talking and laughing, having a great time..."
Jiang Yunwan sent Madam Mu away and returned to Furong Garden angrily.
Song Mingen raised his eyes and glanced at her face, "Why are you not happy after going to your mother's yard?"
"Du Zhihuan also went to burn incense. Madam Mu said that Huanhuan and Sister Yu were chatting and laughing together. That's not a big deal. The main thing is that Xiao Chengqian also went. I have a hunch that Du Zhihuan and Xiao Chengqian went to have a private meeting."
Song Mingen: "Did Prince Mu go?"
"I went because I was worried about what Du Zhihuan and Xiao Chengqian were up to behind the scenes."
"Don't worry too much. Xiao Chengqian may not be our son-in-law. Some people said that Du Zhihuan took Princess Anyang to meet Song Rui, but it doesn't necessarily mean they were going to meet Xiao Chengqian privately. Also, Madam Mu should have said that Song Yu and the other younger generations were talking and laughing and having a good time. As the older brother, Prince Mu must be protecting Sister Yu and her sisters."
Jiang Yunwan understood something, "Could it be that you have changed your mind and want Prince Mu to be your son-in-law?"
Song Mingen's face was red and rash-covered. "He's too old!"
Jiang Yunwan chuckled, "But he's handsome."
"He's too old!"
"Sister Yu is his savior."
"He's not into women!"
Jiang Yunwan realized it later and said, "I almost forgot about this. Prince Mu is indeed not suitable."
"Wanwan, our sister Yu knows medicine."
Jiang Yunwan was surprised. "Can abstaining from women be cured? Could it be that Prince Mu has some hidden illness?"
Song Mingen: ...
When Song Yu came back in the evening, Song Mingen gave her the Poison Scripture.
"This was found at Yang Xu's residence. Daddy saw that it's different from the one you have."
