Chapter 253 Su Yuejie's Death
The old doctor left last, but before leaving, he said a few more words to the old woman from the Zhao family.
"Oh, thank you, Doctor Li. We will pay attention to it."
After sending the doctor away, the Zhao family's mother-in-law hurried back to Helin Courtyard. When she saw Jiang and Su Qingwan, she immediately said happily:
"Third Madam, Fourth Miss, happy event!"
"What happy event?"
After Su Qingwan accompanied Jiang back, she felt relieved when she saw that she didn't look unhappy.
"Doctor Li said that Concubine Song lost a lot of blood this time and hurt her uterus. I'm afraid she won't be able to get pregnant again in the future."
The words of the Zhao family's mother-in-law shocked Jiang, but Su Qingwan was very normal because she was the one who asked Xiaonian to put the medicine.
Song Xiangzhi thought that after entering the Marquis' Mansion, she would become a noble mother because of her son. But she was dreaming, because she would never give her such an opportunity.
"I can't believe she was so cruel to herself. It's a pity she didn't frame me."
Jiang thought of the time when Su Zhiru questioned her and felt unhappy.
"I guess he didn't know the properties of the medicine, so he drank too much and ended up hurting himself. This is called stealing a chicken but losing the rice. He deserves what he sows."
Aunt Rong hoped that Song Xiangzhi would bleed to death, but it didn't work.
"Aunt Rong is so right!"
Su Qingwan quickly agreed.
The few of them were chatting happily, and soon they started talking about Jiang's management of the household affairs in the Marquis' Mansion.
"Mother, let the stewards and maids from the inner and outer courtyards of the Marquis's mansion come to see you later. You have to identify all the people first. As for the accounts, we will look at them ourselves first and then investigate if we find any problems." Su Qingwan said.
"Well, listen to Qingwan. Mother will also learn to manage the household, otherwise when you get married in the future, there will be no one to help me." Jiang looked at her daughter lovingly.
It seemed as if she could still see her lying in the cradle, but in the blink of an eye, Qingwan had grown into a graceful young lady. She couldn't help but sigh.
"I don't want to get married. I just want to stay at home with my mother."
"Child, you will definitely get married!" Jiang poked Su Qingwan's forehead and looked at her lovingly. Su Qingwan threw herself into Jiang's arms, doting on her and acting coquettishly.
Seeing that Jiang had changed today, Su Qingwan felt very sorry for her.
"Okay, it's late, it's time to rest. Why don't you stay at my place tonight?" Jiang said with a smile.
"Okay, I'll sleep with mom."
However, just as she finished her words, a maid outside shouted, "Third Master!"
Jiang's face darkened. Why was he here?
"Qingwan, why haven't you returned to Fuguangyuan yet? It's late at night, go back."
Su Zhiru planned to rest in Helin Courtyard tonight. There was too much blood in Yuanning Pavilion, and it would be bad if it affected his career.
"Qingwan will rest here with me tonight. Third Master can go to the study to sleep. Aunt Rong, take Third Master's bedding to the study."
Jiang didn't show any good face to Su Zhiru at all, and didn't even notice how ugly his face was.
"Yes, ma'am."
After Aunt Rong agreed, she immediately opened the cupboard and took out the bedding.
"Let's go, Third Master."
Su Zhiru was upset. They thought, "This means you won't be allowed to enter the room."
"Jiang, have you thought it through? Do you really want me to sleep in the study?"
"Third Master is not deaf, that's what I said." Jiang glanced at him coldly.
His eyes were full of contempt, which made Su Zhiru feel that he had seen it wrong. When he wanted to clarify, Jiang had already looked away and was no longer looking at him.
You are still angry with yourself!
"Don't regret it!" Su Zhiru angrily snatched the quilt from Aunt Rong's hands and walked out.
But even after he walked outside, Jiang still didn't ask him to stay.
"Hmph!" Su Zhiru snorted coldly and strode to the study.
As soon as he left, the mother and daughter in the room looked at each other.
Su Qingwan noticed that her mother breathed a sigh of relief, and her facial features softened.
"Let's take a break too!"
After a good night's sleep, Su Yuewu woke up early the next day and went to Helinyuan to pay his respects to his mother. He was surprised to see that his sister had arrived earlier than him.
Su Qingwan didn't explain much, and the siblings had breakfast with Jiang.
……
Tinglan Courtyard.
Mrs. Liu did not sleep well that night. Now that she had lost her power as the housekeeper, she tossed and turned in her bed, unable to fall asleep.
After finally waiting until dawn, Liu got up.
Nanny Zhou injured her arm and was not able to serve Liu, so she called Nanny Liang into the room to serve her.
"Is the young master awake?"
Liu asked as usual.
She was used to going to Su Yuejie's room to see him after breakfast.
"In reply to the Madam, when I came here, I saw that the eldest young master's door was still closed. I guess he hasn't gotten up yet." Nanny Liang replied respectfully.
After hearing this, Liu lost her appetite for breakfast.
Normally at this time, the servant serving Su Yuejie would open the door, but why hasn't he opened it today?
"Let's go and take a look." Liu wiped her mouth with a handkerchief and stood up.
Nanny Liang immediately supported Liu and walked outside.
It wasn't long before they arrived at Su Yuejie's residence.
She told Yuejie yesterday that he could move back to his own yard after his injuries healed.
"Yuejie, mother is here." After Liu arrived at the door, she knocked on it a few times, but the door didn't open at all.
She pushed the door suspiciously, and it opened.
"Wang Xi, it's already so late and why haven't you gotten up yet?" After Liu entered the room, she saw Wang Xi still lying on the small couch in the outer room, snoring loudly.
Nanny Liang hurried forward and patted Wang Xi a few times, but the man still didn't wake up.
She simply turned the man over, and a smell of alcohol wafted out.
"Madam, Wang Xi drank some wine, so he is still asleep." Nanny Liang said hurriedly.
"Wake him up! Tell him to serve the young master well, but he took advantage of the banquet at the Marquis's Mansion to get drunk."
Liu glared at Wang Xi with great unhappiness, then walked towards the inner room.
In the inner room, the gauze curtains were hanging down, and only a person could be vaguely seen lying on the bed.
"This kid, didn't he drink alcohol secretly? He still has injuries on his body."
Liu muttered to herself and walked forward to lift the gauze curtain.
"what!"
The screams pierced through the house and reached the sky.
Su Zhiyi, who had just walked into Tinglan Courtyard, was so frightened that his legs trembled and he almost fell to his knees.
"What are you doing? Who are you trying to scare to death?" Su Zhiyi said angrily.
As soon as he finished speaking, Liu's tragic wails were heard from the side room.
"Yuejie, my son, why did you leave? How could you bear to leave your mother and go away? Wake up quickly, ouch! It hurts so much..."
When Su Zhiyi heard the noise, he hurried towards the wing room, but stopped at the door. Liu's crying and wailing continued in the room.
It’s better not to go in, lest if you go to Hua Jiaoniang’s place, it might disturb the baby in her belly, which would be bad.
But... Alas! Su Zhiyi sighed, his mind full of the past with Su Yuejie.
