Chapter 48 Wake up
Grandmother Jia sat down carefully and looked at the old concubine with awe.
"I have a lot of things to worry about at home. I don't have as much luck as you, the old concubine. Isn't this just to enjoy the old concubine's blessing?"
The old concubine laughed.
"You, your temperament has changed a lot. Tell me, what's the matter?"
Hearing this, Jia's mother smiled awkwardly and suddenly knelt down.
"I am here to ask the old concubine to save my life."
The old concubine was stunned and frowned.
"Save whose life?"
Grandmother Jia did not dare to mention Jia Hu, but only said that Jia Baoyu was bitten by a poisonous snake and was poisoned, and wanted to ask for a skilled imperial physician.
The old concubine couldn't help laughing. It turned out to be such a trivial matter. She smiled and said
"It's just a small matter. Okay, get up quickly. I agree."
Grandmother Jia was overjoyed and kowtowed to express her gratitude immediately. Then she slowly stood up and sat down again.
The old concubine glanced at Jia's mother and said indifferently
"Mrs. Jia, sometimes it's not a good thing to be too fond of your children and grandchildren."
Grandmother Jia was startled. Was he hitting her? She didn't have time to think about it. She smiled and said
"The old concubine is right."
Seeing this, the old concubine shook her head, and it was obvious that she didn't listen. She said no more and turned to
"You've come just in time. I have something to ask you."
Grandmother Jia looked at the old concubine in confusion.
"You say."
A gleam of light flashed in the old concubine's eyes.
"Did your family send a girl to the palace?"
Grandmother Jia was startled and said quickly, "Oh, that's the truth, old concubine, my second son's eldest daughter is in the palace."
"Well, her name is Jia Yuanchun, right?"
"Old Concubine Dowager, yes. What happened to her?" Jia's mother asked worriedly.
The old empress dowager would not mention Jia Yuanchun for no reason. There must be something going on.
"That's a good thing. I plan to bring her to my side to be a female official. What do you think?" The old concubine said with a smile.
Grandmother Jia was overjoyed and knelt down again.
"Thank you, old concubine. It's her blessing." Jia Yuanchun was also a source of worry for Grandmother Jia.
When Jia Yuanchun was sent to the palace, she was expected to be chosen by the emperor, but she didn't expect that there would be no news after such a long time.
She was always worried about Yuanchun's life in the palace. Now, the old concubine was finally willing to help.
After all, the old empress dowager was old and her spirit soon became weak. She waved goodbye to Lady Jia.
Grandmother Jia did not expect that this visit to the palace would yield such a great harvest. Not only did she invite the imperial physician,
Yuanchun also found a place to stay. She entered the palace with an anxious look on her face and left with a smile on her face.
Unfortunately, the smile did not last long. When Doctor Li finished examining Jia Baoyu,
When she shook her head and said that she could do nothing, Grandmother Jia instantly fell into despair.
That's right, it was Doctor Li who was called by the Emperor to treat the retired Emperor.
This guy lied to the emperor, and the emperor actually believed it, and he survived.
Doctor Li was a little surprised. This snake venom was even stronger than the emperor's, but this man was still alive.
I was sighing in my heart that my medical skills were still not good enough.
Looking at the desperate Jia Mu, he hesitated for a moment and said
"Madam, I can't cure your son, but I know there is definitely someone in this world who can cure this poison."
"Ah? Really?" Grandmother Jia seemed to have grasped the last straw and looked at Doctor Li in surprise.
"Who is it? Do you know? Should I go and invite him personally?"
Doctor Li shook his head helplessly.
"I don't know that either, but there must be such a miracle doctor. It depends on whether you can find him.
Well, I'm really sorry, I'll take my leave now." He left in a hurry, reminding her to this extent was the most he could do.
Grandmother Jia stood there in a daze until the figure of Doctor Li disappeared completely.
She came to her senses and could only choose to believe.
"Someone, go post a notice.
As long as someone can cure my grandson, I am willing to give him a huge sum of money." Grandmother Jia said fiercely, she would save Baoyu at any cost.
At this time, a maid standing at the head of Jia Baoyu's bed kept her head down.
Looking at Jia Baoyu lying on the bed, her eyes were red and swollen, and it was obvious that she had been crying for a long time.
She made a secret decision in her heart.
The sky gradually began to darken. Candles had been lit in Jia Hu's room, but the four girls on the bed had not yet woken up.
Jia Hu was not in a hurry and sat at the table waiting. If he was not mistaken, he should be waking up soon.
"Hmm?" Suddenly Xichun frowned and slowly opened her eyes.
She saw the unfamiliar ceiling of the bed at a glance before she could fully recover from the shock.
"Ruhua." Xichun called out habitually, but no one responded for a long time.
Xichun was somewhat sober now, and sat up suddenly. Seeing Jia Hu,
"Oh, third brother." The scream woke up the other three girls.
Xichun's face turned pale, her mouth pursed, and she jumped off the bed and ran towards Jia Hu crying.
"Brother, I had a terrible nightmare. There were bugs. Lots of bugs.
There are also snakes and spiders, so scary, there are so many of them, all surrounding us." Xichun was really scared and her body was shaking.
Jia Hu opened his mouth, but for a moment he didn't know what to say. Tanchun and the others on the bed also sat up.
The three girls were not as stupid as Xichun who thought it was a nightmare. They now clearly remembered what happened.
They stared at Jia Hu with fear, worry, and shock in their eyes.
Lin Daiyu's face turned pale. She finally knew what was staring at her. It was because she knew it that she felt terrified.
"Third brother, this is not a dream, right?" Tanchun shuddered and asked stutteringly.
Jia Hu looked up at them. When he saw Lin Daiyu, his eyes flickered and he smiled bitterly.
"I just wanted to show you my strength. I forgot that you are all girls.
Seeing all this suddenly, I can't accept it. Alas, I was just thinking too simply. "
Xichun looked up suddenly and said in surprise
"Ah, what? That wasn't a dream, it was real." He looked out into the darkness and shuddered.
"Doesn't that mean there are really bugs outside?"
Jia Hu quickly touched Xichun's head
"Don't be afraid, they are just my pets, they are very obedient and will not hurt you.
You have been here several times, and nothing happened, right? "
Xichun was stunned for a moment, and thought carefully.
"Well, that's true."
Jia Hu saw that the expressions of the few people were a little strange, and hurriedly said
"You guys go back and have a good rest, and try to forget about what happened today."
"Li Liang, are those maids awake?"
"Third Master, they have been awake for a while." Li Liang answered from outside.
Hearing this, Jia Hu looked at the girls and said with a smile
"It's getting dark, you should go back first. Come on, I'll take you there." He held Xichun's hand and said,
Then he urged Tanchun and the others who were a little confused.
Finally, Jia Hu sent them all out of the courtyard, and only breathed a sigh of relief when he saw them slowly leave.
This is really hard to resolve, we can only let them adapt to it slowly.
