Chapter 125 When did I say someone would die?
Wei Lanxuan was really scared.
After breaking the fish tank yesterday, he has been feeling uncomfortable all over. The backs of his hands and arms that had come into contact with the transparent fish were all covered in redness and swelling, and he had nightmares at night.
But he didn't dare tell his family about this. If his father knew that he had broken the gift from the emperor, he would lose his legs.
Wei Lanxuan came up with a way to put the blame on his mortal enemy Chen Hao. After all, he was the young master of the Rongguo Mansion, and had an uncle who was a duke and a brother who was a general to support him. The emperor would certainly not be able to do anything to him - and it was not the first time that Chen Hao took the blame for someone else.
Wei Lanxuan was complacent. He thought he had solved the problem, but he never expected that the biggest trouble would appear today!
That fish is actually poisonous!
"I don't want to die, please save me, Madam General! I know I was wrong!" Wei Lanxuan cried and beat his chest in regret.
Shen Wangshu had no intention of taking action, “Then you should first explain the whole story clearly.”
At this point, Chen Hao was stunned, and the others were also speechless. They had never expected things to develop in this direction.
However, the abilities of the general's wife have been known to everyone in recent days, so when she said this, everyone was convinced.
Wei Lanxuan cried and said, "Usually the teacher never lets us touch it. I was curious when I passed by the fish tank after school last night and wanted to take it out to see what this transparent fish looks like... Then I reached out to take the fish..."
"Who knew that once I touched the fish, my arm would feel so painful that I threw the fish away. When I picked it up again, it was already dead."
"I didn't dare let anyone know, so I smashed the fish tank, took the pearls away, and pretended that someone had stolen the pearls."
After all, there are many poor students in the academy, and many people come and go, and many of them are secretly coveting these pearls. In this way, the object of suspicion cannot be himself.
Hearing this, Chen Hao was speechless: "Then why are you putting the blame on me?"
If he were someone from a poor family, the lie wouldn't be so easy to expose.
Wei Lanxuan blushed. Now thinking about it, he was probably fooled by himself. He stammered, "I, I was too panicked last night. I just thought about how we don't get along with each other, so I thought..."
"If I had to do it again, I would definitely change someone."
"......"
Master Liu blew his beard and glared: "You want to do it again?!"
"The student knows he was wrong!" Wei Lanxuan kowtowed twice: "I know I was wrong now. I broke the fish tank yesterday. I should take the initiative to admit it so that I can get medical treatment in time."
His eyes were filled with tears: "If it hadn't been delayed until today, I wouldn't be dying soon..."
Although he hasn't lived long enough, this is probably the retribution for doing bad things.
Wei Lanxuan was heartbroken. He knelt on the ground and cried silently, feeling that he was beyond help.
Master Liu and the dean looked at each other, and finally the old dean hesitated and said, "Madam, Wei Lanxuan is indeed wrong, but his crime should not be punishable by death... Do you have any way to save him?"
Shen Wangshu didn't answer his question, but turned to look at Chen Hao who was wronged: "What did Brother Hao say?"
"Sister-in-law..." Chen Hao looked at his former enemy, gently tugged at her sleeve, and whispered, "Although I really hate Wei Lanxuan, I can't just watch him die like this."
Wei Lanxuan suddenly raised his head with tears in his eyes. He didn't expect that Chen Hao would plead for him.
Shen Wangshu looked at the child: “Although our Hao brother said he wanted to save you, the grievances he suffered in the past two days are not false. You must solemnly apologize to him in front of the entire academy and restore his innocence.”
Wei Lanxuan nodded vigorously: "I will!"
"Also, how did you let Chen Hao take the blame before? All the things must be brought back to the original source one by one."
"I'll tell you everything I know." The child hesitated.
"What about the others?" Shen Wangshu raised his voice, "It's okay if you don't admit it now. The Duke of Rong's Mansion won't make things difficult for you, but I'm a bit petty. When Chen Hao tells me about it later, I won't do anything. I just won't go to your mansion for treatment anymore."
The whole school was in complete silence. No one could guarantee that they would not get some difficult or complicated disease in the future. After being frightened by the general's wife, no one dared to lie and stood up one by one honestly.
At this time, Chen Hao looked at his sister-in-law with starry eyes full of admiration.
It was so easy to deal with these little brats. Shen Wangshu had no shame in bullying children and was very satisfied with the current result.
"Can you save me now?" Wei Lanxuan said anxiously and softly, "I haven't lived enough. I don't want to die."
Shen Wangshu looked at Wei Lanxuan's wound. His whole hand was swollen beyond recognition. He didn't know how the kid had endured it last night.
She asked the dean, "Can you bring me some clean water? I need more."
The dean immediately sent someone to do it. When Shen Wangshu came in the afternoon, he brought his own medical box, which contained all the tools he used every day, including gloves, tweezers, and a bar of soap that he would need today.
She put on gloves and carefully helped Wei Lanxuan pick out the remaining stingers in the skin, then washed the wound with some soapy water. After doing so, Shen Wangshu put away the tools: "Go back and ask your servants to soak the wound in water below 40°, which can relieve the pain."
Wei Lanxuan didn't have time to ask what hot water below 40° meant: "Is this all that matters? Don't I need to take some medicine?"
Shen Wangshu blinked and took out a small white pill from his portable medicine box and gave it to him.
The child took it and ate it quickly. After taking the medicine, he felt better again.
Master Liu asked, "May I ask, Madam, what kind of medicine is this?"
Shen Wangshu also threw one into his mouth, chewed it and ate it: "Sugar pill, is it sweet?"
Wei Lanxuan: “…”
ah.
ah?
"It's quite sweet. Is this a sugar pill made of some medicine?"
"No, it's just an ordinary sugar pill with osmanthus flavor." Shen Wangshu said, "You seem too nervous, eat a candy to relax."
"Well, can this cure me? Won't I die?" Wei Lanxuan asked anxiously.
The latter said in a relaxed tone: "Who said you would die?"
"Didn't you say...you said..." Wei Lanxuan was confused, but after thinking about it carefully, the general's wife didn't seem to have said that she would die: "Did you say the consequences would be very bad?"
"Yeah, doesn't your arm feel uncomfortable from last night until now?" Shen Wangshu patted his shoulder: "Okay, go back and take good care of it for a few days according to my method. Jellyfish are indeed poisonous, but they are not deadly."
"I'm teaching you a lesson this time. Children are cuter when they are innocent." She smiled and looked around: "If someone dares to frame our Hao'er for doing something bad next time, it won't be just a simple scare."
Wei Lanxuan looked at the warm and gentle smile on the general's wife's face and felt inexplicably chilled.
