76 The Strange Illness of the County Magistrate’s Wife

“Eldest Master truly has deep feelings for Madam. Then I ask Eldest Master to quickly bring this commoner to examine Madam’s illness. Although I can’t guarantee that it will definitely happen, I will definitely do my best.”

Mo Ruyue complimented him in a perfunctory manner and then brought the topic back to the County Magistrate’s wife. Since he wanted to build up the image of his beloved wife, he had to keep to his words. Otherwise, it would not be convincing.

When Magistrate Liu heard Mo Ruyue praising him, he was secretly pleased. Women were indeed like this, especially a widow. How could she reject a rich, powerful, and affectionate man?

However, he didn’t expect her to change the topic so quickly. It was as if she was putting him in his own character, which made him feel like his hands and feet were tied.

Magistrate Liu thought that he had sensed it wrong, so he tried again, “Lady Qin, don’t you want to know what the situation is with my wife’s strange illness? When this official saw her pained appearance when her illness acted up, I really wished I could take her pain away. Why are the heavens so unfair, to let such a beautiful and kind woman suffer such pain, it’s really, AI!”

“That’s why this commoner said that old master should quickly take this commoner to see Madam. The earlier you see her, this commoner will naturally ask in detail. This way, you can reduce Madam’s pain earlier. Is this what old master said?”

Mo Ruyue was still using the county magistrate’s wife as a shield. It seemed like he had given the county magistrate a response, but it was not the kind of response he wanted. At the same time, he could not find any fault with it. He could only look at Mo Ruyue with a dark face and was speechless for a moment.

“Alright, Lady Qin is right. I’ll Take You There now.”

He flicked his sleeves, turned around, and walked out. Mo Ruyue followed behind him two steps behind, maintaining a safe distance that was neither too far nor too close.

After the two of them left, Constable Liao, who was standing not far away, also moved.

“Constable Liao, I’m bringing Lady Qin to see Madam. You’ve worked hard, go and have a good rest.”

Magistrate Liao’s words made Constable Liao stop in his tracks. He cupped his hands in salute and took a deep look at Mo Ruyue before he turned around and walked away quickly.

Mo Ruyue couldn’t help but stare deeply at his back, and his brows unconsciously furrowed.

As the county magistrate’s wife had been infected with a strange illness all year round, she had been separated from the county magistrate for many years. She had personally found a concubine for her daily life and the matters under the bed at night. She had also given her personal maidservant to the county magistrate to tie him down and prevent him from attracting any unscrupulous vixens.

In order to show that his wife’s status did not change, the county magistrate had given her the main room, while he took turns to spend the night in the room of the two concubines.

Even from a distance, Mo Ruyue could smell the strong smell of Chinese medicine. She could even distinguish the herbs used and could even deduce the prescription.

“This medicine…”

Mo Ruyue muttered to herself. Although her voice was soft, it still startled the magistrate who was leading the way.

“Eh? Lady Qin, what did you just say?”

He turned around and asked.

“It’s okay. I think I know what kind of illness Madam is suffering from. ”

Mo Ruyue didn’t mention the type of illness. After all, they were in the courtyard. Even if the servants and maids who took care of the county magistrate’s family already knew, she still had to pay attention to the environment and occasion when she spoke. She couldn’t just say whatever she wanted to say without any restraints at all times.

The magistrate had been waiting for Mo Ruyue to finish speaking, but who knew that she had only finished half of it and didn’t even tell him what the cause of Madam’s illness was. He had subjectively believed that she was just trying to give herself more weight to speak, and in reality, it wasn’t as amazing as she had made it out to be.

She didn’t even take her pulse and suddenly said that she knew what the illness was. It was more magical than hanging silk thread pulse reading. It was simply nonsense.

Very quickly, the two of them arrived at the door of the main room. Coincidentally, one of the county magistrate’s concubines, Mei Xiang, who was once the Madam’s personal maidservant, lifted the curtain and walked out. When she saw the county magistrate, she immediately knelt down and said, “Master, you’re here.”

“En, how is my wife today? I feel much better now. Have you had breakfast?”

He pretended to ask affectionately, but it made Mo Ruyue secretly tease her for a while. It was just dawn, not even a quarter of the day had passed, and he was already asking if Madam was feeling better. She probably hadn’t even had the medicine in the morning.

“When she woke up this morning, she felt a little uncomfortable. Her entire body was extremely painful and itchy. Perhaps it is because summer has recently entered and the weather is hot and humid. She is about to fall ill again, so she did not eat a single bite of the food this morning.”

As Mei Xiang spoke, she lifted the tray in her hand for the county magistrate to see. On it were some fragrant rice congee, small salted vegetables, and other things. No matter how one looked at it, it looked untouched.

“That’s right. Looking at the time, this is niannian’s time when Madam is suffering the most. It’s also the time when you’re suffering the most. I’m afraid you’ll have to suffer during this period.”

Magistrate Liu walked forward and patted Mei Xiang’s hand that was holding the tray a few times. He also conveniently rubbed it.

“This is what Mei Xiang should do, it’s not hard.”

Mei Xiang lowered her head. She didn’t try to please the magistrate because of this. This allowed Mo Ruyue to have a direct understanding of the magistrate’s wife’s methods. She had her own reasons for taking the initiative to give her personal handmaiden to the magistrate.

Not only was the contract of the maidservant in his hands, but she was also not like those women in the brothels. Her body was clean, and she did not have any ulterior motives. When necessary, she could even form a united front with the County Magistrate’s wife against the outside world. It was really like killing several crows with one stone.

“I have invited a new doctor for my wife. I heard that her medical skills are extremely high, so I will bring her to see Furen. After you put down the food, come over as well. Maybe I’ll need your help to serve me. ”

After the county magistrate had given his orders, he watched as Mei Xiang retreated and brought Mo Ruyue into the house.

“Master, you’re here.”

A weak female voice came from the inner room. Although they couldn’t see the outside through the screen, the women in the room had heard the conversation between the county Magistrate and Mei Xiang.

She forced herself to sit up, and even such a simple action made her gasp for breath.

“It’s me, Madam. I’ve invited another good doctor for you. Let her take a look at you. ”

As the county magistrate spoke, he went around to the back of the screen. Mo Ruyue already knew what kind of illness the lady had. He stopped and took out a pair of gloves as thin as cicada’s wings from the medicine box. He put them on and then followed behind the screen.

A well-dressed woman was half-lying on the pillow behind her. Her face was very pale, but her face was beautiful and delicate. She had a refined temperament and looked like a girl from a scholarly family.

Perhaps it was because she had been tormented by illness for so many years, her cheeks were sunken, and she looked sickly and weak. At this time, she was half-leaning on the pillow behind her, still looking weak.
