Yan Bao knew what she was thinking, which made the Shen family members scratch their heads and feel extremely anxious. They felt like they were going to cry out in frustration if the spoiler was only half revealed.
She couldn't help but complain: "Look at my eldest brother, you'll know. Being too good-looking isn't a good thing. Without my sister-in-law to look after him, he goes out and brings back a concubine to the Shen family, and she's pregnant."
Brother Shen is numb.
Shen Shoufu's eyes turned cold, and the look he gave Brother Shen was unkind.
Mrs. Shen looked guiltily at Xu Zhimo, who knew nothing.
Second Brother Shen covered his mouth in shock, afraid that he would be exposed.
Everyone was busy and didn't notice anything unusual happening to others.
Brother Shen was even more shocked.
He... he would never do anything to let down the Shen family or his wife. He promised his wife that she would be the only one in his life, so how could he possibly let another woman get pregnant?
Impossible, he can't control his own things.
When Big Brother Shen collapsed, Yan Bao angrily complained: "Humph, that woman is really despicable. She deliberately deceived my big brother and took advantage of him being unconscious to say that they had slept together. My big brother was so stupid that he actually believed it."
Brother Shen clenched his fist, so he didn’t do anything to let his wife down, right?
Shen Shoufu secretly breathed a sigh of relief. That child is not from the Shen family, right?
Even if it is not legitimate, the child must not be kept and a bowl of medicine will be given to him.
Mrs. Shen patted her chest. It was a close call. Fortunately, she didn't let the woman take advantage of the situation and make things a fait accompli.
Second Brother Shen secretly warned himself that when going out, not only girls have to protect themselves, but boys like him too. If someone were to target him, would his innocence be lost?
[After the woman became pregnant, she claimed it was my eldest brother's. My eldest brother asked her to have an abortion, but she refused and insisted on staying with him. In the end, there was no other way, so my eldest brother had to bring the woman back and admit his mistake, which caused my eldest sister-in-law to suffer...]
Yan Bao couldn't help but shake his head, looked at Xu Zhimo, and stretched out his hand to her: "Big sister, give me a hug. Don't worry, I will never let anything like this happen. With you guarding my big brother, no one's evil plan will succeed."
Brother Shen nodded secretly and said, Yan Bao, tell me, how is your sister-in-law?
Countless thoughts flashed through his mind, each one more miserable than the last. Brother Shen was almost tortured to death.
He knew he was overthinking it. He just wanted to know what happened to his sister-in-law as Yan Bao mentioned. Please, tell him so that he can learn from it!
Yan Bao didn't say anything.
Brother Shen was almost dying of anxiety.
Shen Shoufu said: “Madam is worried that Junfeng can’t take care of himself if he goes out alone. If the eldest daughter-in-law doesn’t mind the hard work, she can go with him.”
Brother Shen and Xu Zhimo asked in unison: "Really?"
Brother Shen almost cried with joy. I'm saved, I'm saved.
Xu Zhimo thought she had misheard. This father-in-law was really considerate of the young couple, wasn't he?
Xu Zhimo was very willing to go out with Brother Shen. She was not a delicate and spoiled lady who would never leave the house.
Xu Zhimo is able to endure hardships and she also has medical skills. After the flood, there will definitely be a plague. If he accidentally gets infected, she can help him.
Xu Zhimo knows several ways to treat the plague and she is confident.
Mrs. Shen originally wanted to persuade her eldest daughter-in-law to go together, but who knew that her husband was so reasonable. Mrs. Shen had nothing else to say, so she naturally agreed.
With the eldest daughter-in-law following her, how could that scheming woman succeed?
The Shen family doesn't want a scheming woman.
From Yan Bao's inner voice, it can be seen that the child in the belly of the woman who was brought back is definitely not her eldest son. She is dreaming about raising a child for someone else!
Besides, the eldest daughter-in-law is so good, Madam Shen can't bear to see her suffer any grievances.
With Yan Bao's opinion, everyone agreed that it would be better for Xu Zhimo to go with her husband.
However, it was not nice to bring his wife along for disaster relief. After all, Brother Shen was on official business. In order to justify his actions, Chief Minister Shen personally told the emperor that his eldest daughter-in-law had some medical skills.
Knowing that doctors were needed in the disaster area, she volunteered to go with the doctors and do her best to help.
How could the emperor not know what Chief Minister Shen was thinking?
For Yan Bao's sake, the emperor nodded in agreement and added the name of Xu Zhimo, a female doctor, to the list of medical officers accompanying the disaster relief efforts. She also had to be assessed by the Female Doctors Bureau.
When Xu Zhimo went for the examination, Yan Bao went with her and found out that there were so many female doctors in the Imperial Medical Bureau. They all served the concubines in the harem and were basically in obstetrics and gynecology.
I am not very proficient in other medical skills.
Xu Zhimo's arrival attracted many people's attention.
I didn't expect that a lady also knew medicine.
In their view, female doctors are not respected.
Xu Zhimo didn't care. Even if they deliberately made things difficult for her, these minor ailments were no problem at all. Even acupuncture, cupping, and moxa fumigation, Xu Zhimo could handle them.
Yan Bao looked at Xu Zhimo, who was in a stable mood, and secretly gave her a thumbs up.
[My sister-in-law is really amazing. Assessments and such are no problem at all!]
Soon, the test results came out, and Xu Zhimo got an A, which was an outstanding result.
Yan Bao smiled and gave a thumbs up.
Xu Zhimo is still a little embarrassed
Soon, Brother Shen came to pick them up: "How did the exam go?"
"Don't worry, big brother. Big sister-in-law is very capable and will definitely save you. If it weren't for big sister-in-law, you would have suffered a lot this time."
Brother Shen's heart softened, and the look he gave his wife became much gentler.
Xu Zhimo felt embarrassed by being stared at, her face slightly reddened: "Now that you've passed, you can follow your husband."
