[Chapter 117 Chapter 117 Miracle Medicine]
While Shen Yuyao and her husband were happily eating steamed dumplings, the atmosphere in the study of Prime Minister Shen of Wushuang State was extremely solemn.
“Father, I still want to talk to my sister. Maybe she can come up with a solution.” Shen Junshan, the second son of the Shen family, said pleadingly.
"I don't agree!" Without waiting for her master to speak, Old Lady Shen slammed the teacup in her hand heavily on the table!
She looked at her second son, her expression showing indignation: "You know how difficult your little sister's life is, right?
The family she was reincarnated into before had a bad background, which almost caused her marriage with the young man from the Cheng family to be canceled!
Although they are married now, which woman with a poor family background and no one to rely on in her natal family would not be cautious and live her life according to other people's wishes after getting married?
Although A Yao now always says in her letters that the young man from the Cheng family is considerate and caring towards her, they have been married for a short time after all, and their love is deep.
Who knows what the future will be like?
You three brothers can’t help A Yao in any way, so don’t cause her any trouble!
In order to cure me, she and Cheng Xiaolang sent back so many miraculous medicines, which must have taken a lot of effort.
Now we have taken out all the berberine they sent back, and that's enough.
Never speak to A Yao again!
Don't talk to me about family and national affairs. If anyone wants to embarrass my A Yao, I will be the first to say no!"
After Madam Shen finished speaking, she no longer paid attention to her son, but looked directly at Prime Minister Shen.
Prime Minister Shen sighed and did not speak immediately.
Seeing that his father had no intention of speaking, the third brother, Shen Junlin, gently touched his second brother's arm and whispered, "I don't agree with asking my younger sister for medicine again. Mother is right. We, as brothers, cannot be a backer for our younger sister, and we can't be a backer for her either!
Ah Yao has always been strong-willed since she was young, and it is inevitable that she will only report good news and not bad news. Who knows how she is doing now?"
Shen Junlin stopped talking here, but he actually had something else to say.
My sister would send some seafood and some novelty items home from time to time.
But until now, almost half a year has passed, and A-niang still basically delivers her three meals a day.
And the food boxes that were collected were all empty.
What does this mean? It means that my sister is having a hard time and may not even have enough food to eat!
Otherwise, given her personality, she would have refused to allow her mother to send her off long ago.
I don’t know how much effort my sister and brother-in-law put into preparing those miraculous medicines that they sent home last time.
How could Shen Junshan not know this?
But……
He gritted his teeth, but continued to plead unwillingly: "Father, mother, if it was something else, I would definitely not want to cause trouble to my sister, but now there is no other way!
The dysentery is out of control!
Yesterday, the number of infected people in the barracks was around 50, but today it's over 100! If this continues, within three days, all the soldiers guarding the city will fall.
The military doctors had tried all the methods they could think of, and the prescriptions written by the palace physicians were not very effective.
Only those soldiers who drank the berberine that I secretly put into the medicine soup before saw the effect. Not only did they no longer have diarrhea, they were even able to patrol normally.
Father, Mother, I don’t want too much, fifty bottles, no, thirty bottles, I just want thirty more bottles for my sister and I!
Even if everyone gets half a pill, it will be enough to make them feel better and wait until the imperial doctors' prescription takes effect."
Shen Junshan said, walked to Old Madam Shen, squatted down, held her knees with his hands, looked up at her, and shouted: “Mother, I will keep my word, I will definitely not embarrass my sister, I will talk to her nicely.
It would be fine if we can't find it, but if we can find even one, it can save a life. Mother, don't be angry, please help your son."
This is the first time that my second son has been so close to me since he became an adult.
Looking at her son's pleading eyes, Mrs. Shen's heart wavered.
Didn't she know that her son was right?
Apart from anything else, this disease is only spreading in the military camp at this moment, but if it cannot be controlled and spreads to the capital...
What a terrible disaster awaits the people of the entire city!
but……
Old Madam Shen hesitated and looked at her husband.
Prime Minister Shen then spoke: “Write a letter to A Yao, explain the matter to her clearly, and let her do her best.
It would be best if we could find some more magic medicine, but if we can't, that's God's will, so don't make it difficult for her. Everything should be based on ensuring her own safety."
Old Madam Shen suddenly reacted and realized that her husband already had a plan in mind!
Then why ask her to discuss this?
She stood up suddenly and snorted, "Since you have already made the decision, why are you still looking for me? You fathers and brothers don't care about the safety of your daughters and sisters, so what can I do!"
After saying that, she turned and left!
The dancing long sleeves brought the tea bowl that had been used before to the ground and broke it into pieces!
Only the father and his two sons were left in the study.
The servant heard the noise and ran in quickly to clean up.
But seeing the serious expressions of several people, he quietly retreated.
Shen Junshan spilled the tea that A Niang brought down, but he didn’t dare to move.
He looked at his father, then at his eldest brother, and finally asked uncertainly: "Does mother agree?"
Shen Junyuan glanced at him and said, "If you don't agree, why are you so angry?"
Seeing a hint of joy on Shen Junshan's face, he said again: "Think carefully about how to write this letter to A Yao. If you use brother-sister love to pressure her, I will never agree!"
Shen Junlin immediately interrupted: “I won’t agree to it either!”
"What do you think of me?" Shen Junshan was unhappy: "Ayao is also my sister!"
"Just so you know."
Shen Junyuan said as he looked at Prime Minister Shen and said, “Father, my son still has some official business to complete, so I will go back to the yamen first.”
After saying that, he got up and left.
Shen Junlin saw that his elder brother had already left, so he found a reason to follow him out.
Only the father and son were left in the study.
"Father..." Shen Junshan looked at his father with a guilty look on his face.
He knew that ever since his sister's death, a rift had been created between his parents, who had always been in love with each other, and his mother had always been resentful of his father.
And what is happening now will make the resentment even deeper.
Prime Minister Shen waved his hand at him, not allowing him to continue.
Then he ordered: "Write here and show it to me when you are done."
After that, he thought about it again and asked, "If A Yao finds the medicine, how do you plan to let the soldiers take it?"
