Chapter 221 The General’s Wife Who Was Married and Left With Her Son (29)
"Oh! You won't let me go?"
Although Lan Xin didn't take Madam Pei's threats seriously, she still put on an aggrieved expression and complained, "Mother-in-law, aren't you being unreasonable? The culprit is right there, and instead of blaming him, you're blaming me, a person who's in confinement and can't take care of things."
Although she had a hand in Pei Yan's current situation, wasn't it Pei Yan who attacked her first?
You can't just allow others to harm her and not allow her to fight back?
"Yan'er's face is so pale, why...why didn't you call a doctor immediately?"
Mrs. Pei was furious for a moment, and naturally she wanted to tear He Lian'er off the bed, but it was no surprise that both of them were naked, and as a mother, she couldn't go forward and lift her son's quilt.
"Mother-in-law, didn't I forget for a moment?"
Lan Xin took out a handkerchief and wiped the almost non-existent tears from the corners of her eyes. She said sadly, "How many women, just after finishing their confinement period, would encounter such a thing as their husband? They would be so confused that they would not even think of calling a doctor."
"you......"
Old Madam Hou was left speechless by Lan Xin's scolding. After a long while, she managed to utter the words "sharp-tongued" and then she had no energy to pay attention to her anymore.
Seeing that the doctor had not yet arrived, Madam Hou couldn't help but shout anxiously towards the door: "Where is the doctor? Why hasn't the doctor come yet?"
As soon as Madam Hou finished speaking, the voice of the maid outside the door calling for the doctor immediately came in!
"coming!"
"The doctor is here!"
Then, the doctor appeared in the room.
"Doctor, please save my Yan'er!"
When Mrs. Hou saw the doctor come in, she stepped forward excitedly as if she had seen a life-saving straw.
"this......"
The doctor frowned in embarrassment as he looked at the conditions of Pei Yan and He Lian'er lying on the bed.
After all, if he were to separate the two, he would see everything they should and shouldn't see.
The man is fine, but the woman's reputation is ruined.
Madam Hou seemed to see the doctor's concerns and spoke at the right moment, "Doctor, this woman couldn't have such an unmediated sexual relationship with my son in broad daylight. I'm sure she's not a good person. Doctor, just save my Yan'er. Don't worry about anything else!"
"this......"
Although Madam Hou told him not to worry, he still looked at He Lian'er before taking action, "This girl..."
At this moment, He Lian'er wished she could faint.
Finally, he could only turn his head away helplessly, close his eyes, and grit his teeth and said, "It's okay, doctor, go ahead!"
Although He Lian'er felt very uncomfortable after hearing what Madam Hou said, her current situation did not allow her to be pretentious.
Besides, as a modern person, she doesn't value chastity as much as these ancient people.
"In that case, all of you get out!"
After the doctor took out the tools from the medicine box, he drove everyone out.
After a while, the doctor finally separated He Lian'er and Pei Yan.
............
"How is it? Is Yan'er okay?"
As soon as the doctor came out, Mrs. Hou went to greet him eagerly.
"Ugh......"
The doctor sighed and shook his head, "My Lord, I'm afraid you'll have to spend the rest of your life in bed!"
"What...what do you mean?"
Madam Hou could hardly stand.
"My Lord... he's had a stroke. Not only are his eyes and mouth crooked and he can't speak, but his lower body is also paralyzed!"
Faced with Madam Hou's question, the doctor hesitated for a moment, but still told her Pei Yan's actual situation.
"Wha...what?"
When Mrs. Hou heard Pei Yan's actual condition, she felt like the sky was falling.
She completely accepted the situation, and she became furious. After spitting out a mouthful of blood, she fell straight back.
"Old lady!"
"Madam Hou!"
"Mother-in-law!"
The maidservants around Madam Hou hurriedly caught her as she was about to fall to the ground.
The maid who served Madam Hou personally accidentally touched Madam Hou's neck and found that she had no pulse. She couldn't help but reach out her hand to feel her breath with trembling hands, and found that Madam Hou was not even breathing.
He spoke tremblingly to the doctor beside him, "Doctor... Doctor... please come and take a look at the old lady. The old lady... the old lady... she... she seems to be dead!"
"what?"
The doctor spoke in disbelief, not caring that they were in the yard, and hurriedly reached out to feel Madam Hou's pulse.
"Doctor, what happened to my mother-in-law?"
After Lan Xin saw the doctor take Madam Hou's pulse, she immediately pretended to be anxious and asked.
"The old lady's body was already at the end of its life, and now she was shocked. She couldn't bear it for a while and passed away."
After the doctor finished explaining, he looked at Lan Xin with some sympathy and said, "Madam, please accept my condolences!"
In the doctor's eyes, Lan Xin's husband had an affair with other messy women in one day, resulting in a stroke and hemiplegia. Now her mother-in-law has passed away. From now on, there will be only three people left in this huge marquis' mansion: the wife, the orphan, and the widow. It's really pitiful!
Lan Xin:............
Lan Xin saw the sympathy in the doctor's eyes and didn't know what to say for a moment.
Now she is rich, beautiful and has children. She doesn't have a mother-in-law and her husband has suffered a stroke and is paralyzed on one side of his body. With such a good life, there are still people who sympathize with her?
............
After sending the doctor away, Lan Xin turned and walked into He Lianer's room.
"Lan Xin, it's all your fault. It's because of you that you delayed finding a doctor for us that Pei Yan ended up like this!"
When He Lian'er saw Lan Xin come in, she glared at her with hatred in her eyes.
Lan Xin naturally wouldn't indulge her and sneered, "Who are you to say such things to me? Is it because you have no shame?"
When the issue of identity was mentioned, He Lian'er's defenses were instantly broken. She had always wanted to be Pei Yan's only wife. Now that Pei Yan had become like this, she was afraid that her wish would never come true. She thought that all this was caused by Lan Xin.
He Lian'er's eyes were bloodshot with hatred, and she rushed towards Lan Xin without caring about anything. "Lan Xin, this is all your fault, why don't you just die?!"
Seeing someone rushing towards her, Lan Xin did not dodge, but went straight up and kicked the person to the ground. The dagger hidden in He Lian'er's sleeve fell out.
Looking at the dagger that fell to the ground, Lan Xin couldn't help but sneer, "Ha! Want to kill me?"
