Chapter 108
Jiang's state is extremely bad. Granny Peng holds Shen Xi outside the Li's house. When Shen Xi sees Shen Ze, he quickly reaches for his brother to hold him. He cries out, "brother, there are a lot of bad people in it." After all, Shen Ze is more reassuring to granny Peng. Shen Ze saw that he hadn't seen him for only a few months, and Shen Xi was much thinner. He couldn't help but feel distressed. He reached out his hand to take over his sister, hugged her in his arms and comforted her, "dear, sister Xi doesn't cry. My brother will help you beat the bad guys." Then he looked at Jiang, who was carried out by several women in a sedan chair, and frowned. Seeing this, Granny Peng shook her head to him. "I'm afraid Mrs. Jiang is not good. Let's take her back first and invite a doctor to see for her."
They made a lot of noise and attracted a lot of onlookers. The Li family is a well-known wealthy family in Jinzhou. Naturally, the people living around them are not ordinary people. After hearing the news, he sent the steward to investigate.
Naturally, the servants of the Li family would not say that they were not. They only said that the Shen family bullied people by virtue of the power of the loyal Marquis and wanted to take away Chiang who had been married to the Li family and wanted to occupy her dowry. The onlookers listened to the Li family's excuse and saw that the Shen family was really fierce. They were all indignant and pointed to one side.
The wife in charge of the Fang family happens to be the daughter of a servant in the Ministry of rites. After listening to the reply, she feels that she can't just sit by and watch the Shen family bully others. So he brought his servants here to discuss with the Shen family. When he came, it happened that Granny Peng and her party had just come out.
Both of them are respectable families in jinzhoucheng. Mrs. Fang and Mrs. Peng are also common at various banquets, but they are quite eloquent. Now, seeing that the servants of the Shen family were really carrying a lot of furniture, they went over the crowd and asked, "Granny Peng, I haven't seen you for a long time. Why did you come here today?"
Granny Peng just wanted to find a chance to disclose today's affairs. She couldn't let the Shen family take on the blame. As a result, she pointed to Jiang who was leaning on the soft sedan chair with red eyes and said, "I have no time to say what's superfluous. Mrs. Fang, you're here just in time. Come and have a look. Aunt Jiang was still fine when she left our Shen family a few months ago. She was killed less than two months after she married the Li family. The Li family, a group of black hearted things, seized aunt Jiang's property, and even locked their mothers in the yard. Aunt Jiang was beaten and couldn't afford to be hurt, and she didn't get a doctor. And our sister Xi, who used to be a white girl, what is she thin now? It's not over. We Shen family will not just let it go. But now aunt Jiang is so ill, so we have to take her to our family and ask a doctor to treat her well. "
Naturally, there was a curtain hanging on the soft sedan chair to block the sight of outsiders, but when Mrs. Fang came, Granny Peng lifted the curtain to show her. When Granny Fang saw that Jiang, who was ruddy on her wedding day, was as thin as firewood now, and her face was green and gray. Chiang's eyes were closed and the noise outside was unaffected. If it's not for the nostrils, there's still a faint breath, it's no different from the dead. At the moment, he was also startled, "how could he be so sick? I'd better ask a doctor to see it. " With that, he let her go.
They are all neighbors. Mrs. Fang naturally knows that the Li family is greedy and greedy. In particular, old Mrs. Li is the most mean and unsympathetic. But I never thought that this family would harm people like this for the sake of greedy dowry. It's so black hearted!
Granny Peng's voice was not small just now, and there was a servant woman brought by Jiang's crying in the crowd about the inhuman treatment she had received in the past two months. Everyone's sympathy for the Li family suddenly turned to disdain, and what the family did was called human affairs?
The Shen family rushed Chiang back and asked the best doctor in the city to treat her. It's just that her five internal organs have been badly damaged, delayed for such a long time, and lack of medical care. There is no way out. Now it's just a day to live.
Shen Ze asked someone to find a hundred year old ginseng, and let the maid stew the ginseng soup for Jiang. Jiang just woke up. She was relieved when she saw the Shen family. She looked at Shen Ze and said, "brother Ze, I'm afraid it won't work. I'll give you sister Xi in the future."
When Shen Ze saw her like this, he advised her, "don't worry, aunt. I've sent someone to ask for a doctor. I'll get better if I just keep my mind at ease. It's better for sister Xi to be looked after by her mother. " Jiang shook his head gently. "I know my body. I don't have a few days to live. However, I have to go, and I have to go clean. I always have to see and leave the book so that I can feel at ease. "
Wen Yan, Shen Ze nodded, "aunt, don't worry, I will help her to seek justice."
It's not easy to keep such a big deal from the Jiang family. Shen Ze sent someone to deliver a letter to the Jiang family, and went to the magistrate's office.
An hour later, he smoothly took Li Youcai's signature and seal of the book and Li's compensation of 8000 taels of silver back. At this time, Chiang's elder brother, master Jiang, had received the news.
When he arrived at Shen's house and saw his terminally ill sister, he was also devastated and complained that "it's all my fault. It's all my fault that I should have stopped you from remarrying."
Although Jiang was weak, he still held on to his spirit and comforted his brother, "my brother doesn't have to blame himself. It's all my life." With that, she coughs. Xu's mother comes forward to help her beat her back. Shen Xi takes out her handkerchief and climbs to the bed to help her wipe her mouth. But she never thinks that the white handkerchief is stained with blood. Although Shen Xi was young, he knew that this was not a good phenomenon, so he began to cry, "mother, what's the matter with you? Mother, I don't want you to be busy. "
Mrs. Peng, who has been looking after her all the time, sees that Jiang's family seems to be in trouble. She is afraid of scaring Shen Xi, so she coaxes her into saying, "sister Xi, you're good. Sister-in-law is looking for a doctor to see your mother. Will you go out and play with your niece?"
But Shen Xi, who was always clever, didn't cooperate at all this time. He hugged Jiang's arm and said, "I won't go. I won't go anywhere. I'll stay with my mother."
After coughing for a while, Jiang felt better in her chest. She took a sip of the ginseng soup that Xu's mother had handed over, and felt that she had some strength. Then he said to Shen Xi with a smile, "well, sister Xi will stay with her mother. She still has something to say to her."
After that, he turned his head and asked mother Xu, "nanny, have you taken all the things I asked you to take?" Xu nodded, turned to go out for a while, and then came in with a big box.
