Xiao Hanzheng looked at them quietly, as if saying he didn’t care whether they believed it or not.
The Xiao Family members were a little frightened.
Mrs. Wang couldn’t help it, she looked at her son and asked: “Where have you been fooling around recently?”
Xiao Dalang immediately shook his head, “No, I didn’t go.”
“Then your cousin misdiagnosed it.” Mrs. Wang said in relief.
Her son has been staying in the yard a lot recently, and it seems that he hasn’t gone out to wonder.
Shi Qingluo said: “You can take him to a doctor outside to see if my husband has misdiagnosed it.”
According to what her husband said, Xiao Dalang’s symptoms have begun to show up. The doctor outside will be able to tell his pulse.
Xiao Hanzheng nodded: “Yes, you go outside and take a look first.”
Hearing what the two people said, Xiao Dalang was afraid at first.
He has been feeling unwell in the past few days, and now he feels even more itchy.
“Go, let’s go outside and take a look first.”
It was not easy for a woman to go to see a doctor like this, so the Eldest Son and Third Son accompanied Xiao Dalang.
Old Lady Xiao and others remained sitting while waiting for the results.
Although the old lady was a little uneasy because of her eldest grandson, she still couldn’t help asking: “What reward did you get for donating seeds?”
Shi Qingluo replied truthfully: “I asked for a village. My husband asked for permission to look through the previous examination papers.”
Old Lady Xiao’s eyes widened, “That’s it?”
Shi Qingluo raised an eyebrow: “So what if?”
Old Lady Xiao felt that her grandson and granddaughter-in-law were out of their minds: “Are you stupid? For such a big contribution, you don’t want to get an official position, or ask for more gold, silver, and jewelry?”
Shi Qingluo glanced at her and said, “With my husband’s ability, he can naturally become an official after passing the Jinshi examination. Why should he ask for it?”
“If you want gold, silver, and jewelry, just put in more effort and you’ll earn them.”
Then she continued with great righteousness: “The corn seeds were specially prepared for the Emperor by my old immortal master. We didn’t much about it, so how could we climb up high and ask for things randomly?”
She despised it: “Making the people of Daliang well-fed is the most important thing. Why do you think about vulgar things like gold, silver, and jewelry?”
Her husband said that the Emperor’s eyes were everywhere, so she was more cautious about speaking in places with the audience.
She can also stop at the best products of the Xiao family.
Old Lady Xiao and others: “……”
It was so hard to refute.
They just got a broken village, so why bother?
Old Lady Xiao said reluctantly: “How about you give this credit to Dalang and let Dalang become an official in the capital directly?”
Shi Qingluo looked at her in surprise: “He’s already like this, but you still want him to be an official in the capital. Do you want him to die faster?”
The Xiao family member: “……”
This damn girl is too venomous.
Old Lady Xiao glared at Shi Qingluo and said: “Just speak, why are you cursing Dalang?”
Shi Qingluo stared back: “It’s you, who wants to harm him, so why are you glaring at me?”
“The person who pretends to take credit will be beheaded in public. Don’t you want him to die early?”
“Besides, he’s not even a scholar, but then suddenly, he became an official. With his brain, he can’t fool others.”
Mrs. Wang was heartbroken after hearing this and asked: “What’s wrong with his brain? My eldest son is very smart.”
Shi Qingluo pouted, “If he is smart, he wouldn’t be tricked by others and get that disease.”
Mrs. Wang looked at Shi Qingluo unhappily: “It’s not confirmed yet. Maybe your husband misdiagnosed it.”
If it were anyone else who said that about her son, she would have ripped their mouths apart a long time ago.
But she had been beaten by Shi Qingluo, so she didn’t dare.
Shi Qingluo waved her hand: “Then just wait and see.”
They all felt that they wouldn’t get any benefit from donating seeds, so the members of the Xiao family were waiting absentmindedly.
Half an hour later, the Eldest Son and the Third Son walked in, supporting the pale Xiao Dalang.
Old Lady Xiao stood up feeling distressed when she saw this: “Dalang, what’s wrong with you? Don’t scare grandma!”
Xiao Dalang didn’t pay attention to his grandma, but when he entered the door, he suddenly begged Xiao Hanzheng: “Cousin, please save me, I don’t want to die yet.”
This move shocked other people in the Xiao Family.
“What’s going on?” Old Lady Xiao had a bad feeling.
The Eldest Son said with a bitter look: “It’s Hualiu Disease.”
“We went to the best medical clinic in the capital and found the best doctor, who can tell us what’s wrong just by checking his pulse.”
“The doctor said that he has no way to treat him, he can only prescribe him some medicine to support Dlang’s health and then look again at his condition later.”
Old Lady Xiao felt like the sky was falling: “How could this happen?”
She ran to Xiao Dalang and asked: “Dalang, tell me, did you follow someone to fool around?”
Xiao Dalang was about to cry at this time, “I didn’t, I didn’t.”
“I met one woman after I came to the capital.”
As soon as these words came out, everyone understood that the disease must have been transmitted by that woman. Xiao Dalang has never touched a woman in their hometown.
Mrs. Wang was about to faint from anxiety: “Didn’t you say she is a daughter from a prominent family?”
Xiao Dalang said with a bitter face: “She said she is a daughter from a prominent family.”
Old Lady Xiao asked: “Then is she a virgin?”
ˆXiao Dalang shook his head and said: “I don’t know.”
“The night I took her as my concubine, I drank too much. When I woke up, I saw blood on a white handkerchief.”
“It’s right for you to check the blood on the handkerchief.”
Shi Qinglou was speechless, “You can cut your hand and put some blood on the handkerchief.”
The Xiao family: “……”
Xiao Dalang: “……”
That makes sense.
Shi Qingluo asked: “Did you, a hero, save that woman from being bullied?”
Xiao Dalang shook his head: “No.”
Shi Qingluo thought for a moment and raised an eyebrow: “Then did she sell herself to bury her father? You helped her bury her father. To repay your kindness, she followed you back home, saying that she would work as an ox and a horse to repay you?”
Xiao Dalang’s eyes widened, “How do you know?”
Shi Qingluo rolled her eyes and said: “You are the only one who will fall for such an old trick.”
“Ask the dandies in the capital, if they encounter someone like this, will they take the initiative to approach, or will they stay away?”
Looking for an opportunity to meet and repay with one’s own body, usually a hero will save a beauty or sell one’s body to bury one’s father.
Xiao Dalang’s expression changed: “Then she approached me on purpose?”
Shi Qingluo was speechless: “Isn’t this obvious?”
“And you got seriously drunk on the day you took her as your concubine. Do you think it’s too much of a coincidence?”
“You’re not fooling around, so where did your illness come from?”
Although Xiao Dalang was not that smart, he was not a complete fool either.
He gritted his teeth and said: “That bitch tried to harm me.”
Mrs. Wang also looked like she was about to rush back and fight: “I must skin that little bitch when I get back.”
The rest of the Xiao family now want to eat that woman.
Seeing how impulsive they were, Shi Qingluo immediately stopped them and said: “Don’t rush back to settle accounts yet. You will only alert the enemy.”
