Chapter 290: Weakness and Insufficiency
Ye Chenxi glared: "An Lan, stop spreading rumors about me. Although I have only started learning on the first day, I can at least distinguish between poison and medicine, right?
I don’t understand, why don’t I ask my master?”
Before Chu Anlan could speak, Chu Shengxi put his arm around his shoulders and asked, "So, Chenxi, do you know how to make poison?"
Ye Chenxi: “…No!”
Chu Shengxi continued: "Then why don't you learn it? Prepare more mute medicine and poison the people you hate into muteness."
The two of them were making a fuss, while Chu Shaozhen and Tu Subo surrounded Chu Anlan and played with Xiao Fengnian.
Chu Shaozhen said: "Why didn't you tell us in advance so that we can prepare a gift for Xiao Fengnian."
"I want to give you a surprise." Chu Anlan said proudly: "An adopted son is also a son. I have a son and you don't. I hope you will all be envious, right?"
Chu Shaozhen smiled: "It's your turn to be proud."
"What do children like?" Tu Subo asked, "Rattle? Bamboo dragonfly?
No, these gifts are too shabby.
How about I send him a book? The Four Books and the Five Classics, a complete set.
Books contain beautiful women and golden houses..."
"Go to hell!" Chu Anlan used his elbow to push Tu Subo away: "If you like books so much, why don't you keep them for yourself?
You can keep the beautiful woman and the golden house for yourself. Xiao Fengnian doesn’t need them. He just wants to be healthy and happy.
If he really likes reading in the future, it won’t be too late for me to give it to him…”
Chu Shengxi turned his head and said, "When I think of such a cute little boy crying his eyes out over studying in the future, it really makes me look forward to it."
Chu Anlan asked: "Are you talking about yourself?"
Upon hearing this, Chu Shengxi immediately said exaggeratedly: "Hey An Lan, how do you know I'm talking about you?"
Chu Anlan grinded his teeth and smiled: "I finally know who Ye Chenxi learned this bad mouth from, it turned out to be you.
He used to be with me all the time, and he was a coward, but after hanging out with you for a few months, his temper has gotten worse and worse."
"It's unfair." Chu Shengxi pulled Ye Chenxi over: "Chenxi, tell me, did I teach you?"
Ye Chenxi looked innocent and naive: "Yes, I learned it from you."
Chu Shengxi put his hands around Ye Chenxi's neck: "Which side are you on?"
Ye Chenxi shrank his neck: "Help!"
The two got into a fight.
Xiao Fengnian lay in Chu Anlan's arms, looking at the two people playing together, giggling and waving his little fists excitedly.
Although it is noisy, it is also lively.
Looking at this scene, Ye Wanqing couldn't help but frown.
Lu Xinrou sighed softly beside her: "The relationship between the prince and the young masters is really good.
When my husband was alive, I had several good friends.
Unfortunately, after my husband passed away, they left Lin'an very quickly and no one knew where they went. "
Ye Wanqing comforted him, "In this world, there are many people who add icing on the cake, but few who help others in times of need.
When making friends with others, just be sure to have a clear conscience.
If you keep an unrighteous person close to you, it will only bring disaster and misfortune. It is better to stay away from him."
"What the princess said makes sense." Lu Xinrou said self-deprecatingly, "When my husband first passed away, I couldn't figure it out day and night.
For a long time, there was only hatred in my heart.
I hate the murderer, I hate those who took advantage of the situation to add insult to injury, I also hate my husband, I hate his former friends...
I also hated myself and Fengnian. I hated why I didn’t die on the day of childbirth, why I had to survive…
There were many times when I didn’t want to live anymore. I burned charcoal, hung white silk, and even bought red-crowned cranes…
Every time, it was Fengnian who woke me up.
During this period, my illness has improved a lot, and I have thought a lot. I am even more grateful that I survived and met the prince and the princess.
The Princess and the Prince are the best people I have ever met in my life besides my husband.
Fengnian can be taken care of by you, even if she goes to reunite with her husband tomorrow, I will feel relieved..."
"Xinrou! Don't say such things." Ye Wanqing stopped her: "Fengnian is still young, you can't abandon him.
Although the prince and I have adopted him as our adopted son, you are his biological mother, and you are the one who should accompany and take care of him. After the prince and I leave Lin'an, we will travel to other places and send people to search for a miracle doctor for you. You will get better."
Get better?
Can it really get better?
Lu Xinrou covered her heart which was aching every day and asked, "Princess, if I die, can you... adopt Feng Nian?"
Ye Wanqing finally softened her heart.
Lu Xinrou's current state is almost the same as when we first met.
Mingming, Gu Chen has been prescribing medicine and various supplements for her during this period.
It seems that she really can't hold on any longer...
Ye Wanqing took a deep breath, calmed down, and then answered Lu Xinrou: "Okay, I promise you.
If you take this seriously in the future... I will treat Fengnian as my own son."
Lu Xinrou finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank you, Princess, and thank you, Prince..."
Her eyes reddened with relief and she smiled.
……
After half a day, Chu Anlan held Xiao Fengnian in his arms and showed him off, and also helped Xiao Fengnian collect many "gifts".
However, the gift has not been chosen yet...
Chu Shaozhen said that since it was their first meeting, he must prepare a good gift for Xiao Fengnian.
So, in the afternoon, he took Chu Shengxi and Tu Subo, and went to the city to pick out gifts accompanied by Ye Chenxi.
Chu Anlan was still limping and could only rest in the mansion.
Lu Xinrou was in poor health and needed more rest, so Ye Wanqing sent Huai Yan to take them back personally.
Before leaving, he asked Gu Chen to take his pulse again.
Gu Chen looked normal: "Mrs. Ling, just take your medicine on time and rest more after you go back..."
He didn't want to say anything else.
Lu Xinrou left with the child.
After sending the carriage away, Ye Wanqing turned to look at Gu Chen: "I see that Xinrou's condition is worse than before."
Gu Chen nodded: "Indeed."
"Ah?" Chu Anlan leaned on a cane that Mo Yan had carefully selected: "How could this happen?
Didn't you say before that she was getting better?"
Gu Chen looked solemn: "Obviously, her condition has become increasingly serious in the past few days."
“Could it be that…” Chu Anlan scratched his head and blurted out, “Too weak to be nourished?
Because Xinrou was too weak, using so much strength to replenish her would cause serious problems? "
Gu Chen said, "There is nothing wrong with the prescription I wrote. As long as Madam Ling takes the medicine on time and in the prescribed amount..."
Before he could finish, Chu Anlan asked, "What if...she didn't measure it?"
Gu Chen was stunned.
Not only Gu Chen, but even Ye Wanqing was stunned.
She frowned and said, "Jingchen."
Jingchen came over: "Princess?"
Ye Wanqing ordered: "Go check secretly to see if Xinrou has taken any medicine on her own...
She was too anxious to get better...
So, you can think of a way to get her medicine residue directly to Dr. Gu for inspection without letting her find out."
Jingchen replied, “Yes.”
He led the horse from the wall, climbed on, and left quickly.
Only after the people left did Ye Wanqing look away.
Gu Chen's face looked very bad: "I have tried my best."
"We all know you've tried your best." Chu Anlan rarely spoke to comfort people: "Do your best and leave the rest to fate."
