Chapter 300: Transmigrated into the Unfavored Cannon Fodder Wife of the Marquisate 11
There was no sign of the illness of the wife of Marquis Guangning, but her condition was extremely severe. She had a high fever for two consecutive days, and on the second day, she could not even get out of bed.
An ordinary doctor said there was no way to cure the disease, so Marquis Guangning invited the imperial physician to see him.
The imperial physician only said that it was rare for a cold to be so severe, and he wrote a prescription and asked him to boil some medicine, but he could not guarantee that it would be able to cure it.
As a "daughter-in-law", Zhuyin naturally had to go visit her mother-in-law when she was seriously ill.
The wife of Marquis Guangning was lying on the bed, her face pale, as if she was in a nightmare, and she kept mumbling, but no one could hear what she was saying.
Zhu Yin sighed faintly: "Madam looks really ill."
When she said this, Xie Zheng was also in the room, but he was far away from her. Hearing this, he said angrily: "If you can't speak, then -"
"Young Master!" Nanny Du suddenly interrupted Xie Zheng.
Her face was pale, and she pulled Xie Zheng: "The prince's wife is also concerned about you, don't blame her."
Most importantly, don't speak ill of her!
At this moment, Madam Du's heart felt as if it was immersed in icy water in the coldest days of winter.
Others may not understand, but doesn’t she understand too?
The day before yesterday morning, my wife wasn’t sick at all!
Of course, the lady didn't tell anyone else about this matter, only her confidant knew about it. The lady felt that the prince's wife was too tough and wanted to temper her temper.
But that day, after the Crown Prince's wife left, the Madam continued to rest in bed. She waited outside and felt that it was almost time. She went to call her according to the time when the Madam usually got up, but found that she could not wake up at all.
When they lifted the bed curtains, they saw that the lady had a high fever and was unconscious.
When the Crown Prince's wife came, the Madam was clearly fine.
Madam has always been in good health, how could she suddenly become like this?
Nanny Du thought about it and remembered what the Crown Prince's wife said early that morning.
It was clearly just ordinary words of concern, but she felt it was strange.
Of course, Nanny Du had no evidence and did not dare to frame her master at will, but she was afraid of Zhu Yin and did not dare to let the prince offend her again.
However, that night, the marquis's wife, who had been sleeping all day, woke up on her own.
As soon as she woke up, she asked someone to call the Marquis with rapid breathing and a look of panic.
As his wife suddenly became seriously ill, Marquis Guangning has been resting in the front yard for the past few days.
When he heard that his wife had woken up and wanted to see him, he quickly got dressed and went to the main room.
When he arrived, the Marquis's wife was already being supported by Nanny Du, barely sitting up against the head of the bed, and Nanny Du was the only one serving her in the room.
When the Marquis's wife saw him, her eyes suddenly lit up, but her eyes were red: "My Lord, there is something strange about my illness!"
Guangning Hou sat down beside the bed and held her cold palm: "Don't be impatient, talk slowly."
At the same time, Nanny Du went to pour a glass of warm water for the lady.
Madam Hou choked up and said, "I was in a daze in my dream, and I arrived at a place full of ghosts and extremely cold. When I woke up, I finally realized that I had actually gone to the underworld!"
Guangning Hou frowned and said, "Don't think too much about it. Maybe it's just a fever and my mind is a little confused."
Madam Hou shook her head and said, "I saw my father."
Marquis Guangning's expression suddenly became somewhat subtle.
He was originally a person who did not believe in ghosts and gods at all, until he was beaten many times in a dream by his own father who had already gone to the underworld.
As mentioned before, the old marquis was a very particular person. He only scolded his sons in his dream. After all, it was not easy for a father-in-law to scold his daughter-in-law.
Being beaten by one's dead father/grandfather in a dream is not a glorious thing to tell others, so all the parties involved in the Marquis' Mansion were unanimous in keeping it secret.
Only a few younger ones occasionally let something slip, and the others just thought it was just childish nonsense.
The Marquis's wife was unaware of this.
He whispered, "What did father say?"
Mrs. Hou was a little embarrassed to speak, but she was really afraid: "Father scolded me severely."
She planned to temper Zhu Yin's temper and set some rules.
But it’s only been one day!
She pretended to be sick and then she really got sick.
Madam Hou couldn't help crying: "The old man is too partial!"
Marquis Guangning was in deep thought.
He is the heir raised by the old marquis, so naturally he sees things more clearly.
He did not deny that the old marquis loved Shen Suxin, and that this was the best thing he could do for his own granddaughter.
But he didn't think that the old man would attack his children and grandchildren one after another, and even take half the life of his daughter-in-law, just to vent his anger on Shen Suxin.
He couldn't help but ask: "What did your father say to you in your dream?"
The Marquis' wife had sent someone to fetch him as soon as she woke up. Her mind was still hazy at the moment, and she tried hard to recall:
"At first, he scolded me, saying that the Marquisate should not be ungrateful... He said that Zheng'er swore in front of the ancestors in the ancestral hall that he would be good to Suxin..."
Marquis Guangning listened quietly. He had heard these words many times when he was beaten.
"besides……"
Madam Hou rubbed her head and said, "There is more to it, but I don't remember it clearly. My father said that she, she..."
She paused, then remembered, "She has an extraordinary background and cannot be provoked. If the Marquis's Mansion breaks the oath, not to mention him, all the ancestors of the Xie family will not have peace in the underworld."
I don’t know if it was a coincidence, but just as the Marquis’s wife finished saying this, a loud thunder suddenly sounded outside the house.
A strong wind suddenly blew up, blowing out the window that was not closed tightly, and the wind extinguished the candle.
Another thunder sounded, and in the moment when the lightning flickered, Marquis Guangning and his wife saw each other's pale faces.
Fortunately, footsteps were heard soon.
Nanny Du held a lamp and came in with a few maids. She relit the lights in the room and closed the windows tightly.
"Ma'am, you're not frightened, are you?"
The Marquis's wife was still fragile. She managed to sit up and talk so many words, but she was frightened and soon fell asleep.
Early the next morning, the Marquis's condition still had not improved.
Marquis Guangning did not sleep all night. He called Nanny Du early in the morning and asked her in detail about what happened that morning. He sat in the yard for a long time without saying a word.
Wait until Xie Zheng comes to visit his mother.
Marquis Guangning looked around him and found that there was no one there.
He asked, "Su Xin didn't come?"
Xie Zheng knew even less than him. He had been living alone since his marriage and had never been to their main room.
Hearing this, he angrily said, "She hasn't come yet? My mother-in-law is seriously ill, and it's fine if she doesn't take care of her in person, but she's so lazy to visit me. I think she is—"
"Shut up."
Guangning Hou interrupted his nonsense and said, "You go and ask Su Xin to come over - never mind, I'll go there myself."
Xie Zheng was puzzled: "Father?"
Guangning Hou originally wanted to take him with him, but remembering the trouble this idiot had caused on his wedding night, he only ordered: "You stay here and guard your mother."
