Chapter 472 Guard
ian
Xue Mei guessed that something happened to Mrs. Zhou.
Sure enough, Deputy General Lu came in and told Xue Mei that Mrs. Zhou committed suicide by committing suicide by committing suicide, but fortunately she was discovered.
But she is unconscious now.
Xue Mei rushed to Zhou's house overnight and inspected Mrs. Zhou.
Her investment was not a big problem. She was discovered by Miss Zhou Er just after stepping on it and rescued her. Miss Zhou Er had long discovered that her mother might not want to live anymore, so she kept staring at her and didn't dare to leave her for too long.
Mrs. Zhou's coma is caused by the drip of water that has not entered these days and has not closed her eyes.
Xue Mei gave her an infusion.
Half an hour later, Mrs. Zhou finally woke up.
She slowly opened her eyes, glanced at the room, and saw her two servants, four daughters, Xue Mei and her maid.
Her expression became excited for a moment, her cheeks became ferocious, and she screamed in her throat.
However, her voice could not make any sound.
The ball still hurt her throat, and she temporarily lost her voice.
She still struggled to express her anger and wanted to drive Xue Mei away.
"Mom, mom!" The children gathered around in tears.
Mrs. Zhou was very excited and had already pulled out the needle.
Seeing this, Xue Mei had to give her an injection to calm down.
After one injection, Mrs. Zhou slowly fell into a deep sleep.
Miss Zhou Er's left eye was bursting with tears, not because of sadness, but because her mother stabbed her when she was excited, and she felt so painful.
"Sister Princess, how is my mother doing now?" Miss Zhou Er asked Xue Mei in a hoarse voice, her voice might be hoarse, "Why is she sleeping again?"
"It's okay, I used some medicine this time. She should be able to sleep for one night." Xue Mei said, "If you believe me, you will go and rest. Send a servant to take care of your mother tonight. Everyone will rest for a night."
The third lady started crying: "I want to stay with my mother."
Her sisters cried as well.
The servants stood beside them with tears in their eyes, but they didn't even have a backbone, so they didn't know what to do.
Xue Mei saw that the house was warm. Because there was coal and sufficient fuel, the Zhou family's main courtyard had a new floor dragon, and the bricks were still new.
Mrs. Zhou was probably anxious and started to do whatever she wanted. She paved the ground dragon before the New Year so that everyone in her family could have a warm winter.
Even if you hit the floor, it will not be cold.
Xue Mei said to the servant, "I brought the bedding and slap the floor for several ladies."
The servant herself didn't know what to do. When she saw someone talking, she didn't care who the person was and went to work immediately.
Miss Zhou Er wiped her tears and said to Xue Mei: "Sister Princess, don't leave. My mother is scary when she goes crazy, and we are all afraid."
Xue Mei felt soft.
Miss Wednesday said again: "Dad didn't go to the inner courtyard, and people outside said he vomited blood."
Xue Mei: "..."
After all, she is not very familiar with the Zhou family and is not easy to manage other people's housework.
Xue Mei settled the four ladies of the Zhou family and asked the servants what generals they usually got very close to.
The servant told her: "It's General Zhao's wife. Mrs. Zhao has been helping with social engagements these days, and she is busy with her. The wife advised her to take a rest for a night, but as soon as she left, the wife went to the shop."
Mrs. Zhao worked day and night, probably so tired that she planned to go back and have a nap.
She will come tomorrow morning.
Xue Mei also visited Mrs. Zhao on the first day of the first lunar month and had a very impression of her.
Thinking that someone will come to take over tomorrow, Xue Mei stayed for one night.
She asked the Zhou family's children if they had eaten, and they all shook their heads.
The youngest fifth girl whispered: "My mother said she couldn't eat, so she took it away in the kitchen. I didn't eat, I was hungry."
Xue Mei: "..."
It is probably because Mrs. Zhou is always strong and has one hand in her family, but she does not have a particularly capable woman as the second-in-command. Therefore, as soon as she fell down, the family was in chaos.
The older children had to help with guests and also looked at their mothers. The younger children did not have enough staff to take care of them, so they were free to raise them.
Xue Mei called the servant lady and asked the kitchen to make some easy-to-digest noodle soup and fill in the midnight snack for several girls.
As the second lady was eating, tears fell down again and couldn't eat. She was older and knew what the killing of her elder brother meant to her family.
Miss Third and others may be really hungry and they all eat in a hurry.
After dinner, Xue Mei asked the kitchen to serve milk cooked with ginger soup and let them drink some.
Milk cooked in ginger soup can sterilize and warm the stomach. There is no sterile treatment method for milk in this era, so it can only be done in this way, but it is very spicy.
Several ladies don't like drinking this one the most.
Helplessly, they didn't dare to refuse, so they brought it over and gritted their teeth and drank it.
A bowl of noodles and a cup of hot milk, several people were lying on the floor. At first, they kept looking at their mother on the bed, and after a while they all fell asleep.
Xue Mei sat on the kang by the window.
Jinping came in quietly and asked her: "Miss, are you here tonight?"
"Yes." Xue Mei said, "You go back first and tell the prince."
"The prince is in the Zhou family's outer courtyard."
"Then you go and tell him." Xue Mei said.
After giving Mrs. Zhou an infusion, she hung up a bottle of amino acids to supplement the nutrients needed by the body and put away the drip.
It was early in the morning and just dawn, Mrs. Zhao came.
Seeing that the four children were sleeping in the bed, Mrs. Zhou also slept soundly; while a young woman sat half-lying on the kang by the window, closing her eyes and taking a nap.
She opened her eyes when she heard the sound of lifting the curtain.
Only then did Mrs. Zhao realize that it was Princess Chengyang, the mansion of the General who lived in King Rui.
"...Madam is here, then I will go back first." Xue Mei said, "Madam Zhou is probably not willing to see me."
Mrs. Zhao: "The princess is so worried. I went to bed yesterday. The maids didn't wake me up. I only knew what happened last night when I woke up early. Thanks to the princess."
Xue Mei waved her hand.
After coming out of the Zhou family, the scorching sun rose and golden light shone on the desolate Baiya City Wall. The city was still lively, and the hustle and bustle of the first month was still there.
The Zhou family seemed to be isolated from the world, immersed in the pain of being alone.
When Xue Mei walked out the door, Xiao Jingcheng was waiting for her at the door.
"...When did it come?" Xue Mei asked him.
Xiao Jingcheng looked at her and then replied: "I just came and worshiped Zhou Yueming. Is Mrs. Zhou embarrassed you?"
Xue Mei: "She has been asleep."
Xiao Jingcheng nodded.
Zhou Yueming's assassination was a heavy blow to General Zhou, and it was also a stimulation to the soldiers of Baiya Town.
Not to mention other people, including Xiao Jingcheng's personal soldiers, they were all checking and doing things in detail, for fear that assassins would get involved.
Everyone is full of weapons.
Who killed Zhou Yueming, but he still can't find out. The assassin is very familiar with Baiya Town and is very flexible. After killing people, he disappeared without a trace and is difficult to find.
Zhou Yueming is dead, and no one thinks about Xue Mei very much.
Baiya Town is a military important place. Others may not know how to cut their throats. Can people in Baiya Town not know?
That will die.
It is normal for Zhou Yueming to die, and the doctor cannot be blamed for this; if he is not dead, that would be terrible. Xue Mei's medical skills are the real genius.
Princess Baoqing doesn't think so.
She took the opportunity to slander Xue Mei everywhere, saying that she was cheating on the world and stealing fame, but Er.
