Abandoned Woman Busy Farming

Chapter 1775: Chapter 1775: Is she being disliked?

Jiang Yichun had never seen Bai Ruozhu take such repeated confirmations while checking a pulse, and his heart couldn’t help but sink.

After a while, Bai Ruozhu withdrew her hand, her expression grave, and said: ”This is an illness I’ve neither seen nor heard of before, direct skin contact might be contagious. Initially, it’s just a skin disease, but over time, it could damage the internal organs. Because I’ve never treated it, I don’t know the method, and can only try bit by bit. But she’s in a condition where there’s no room for error, nor is there time to try slowly.”

”How could this be? Is it not poisoning or curse related to poisonous insects or witchcraft?” Jiang Yichun asked hastily.

Bai Ruozhu shook her head, ”It’s not poisoning, but I’m not familiar with poisonous insect techniques and witchcraft, so I can’t be completely sure.”

Perhaps it’s a plague emerging in this era.

”The people who usually serve her, have they had any issues?” Bai Ruozhu glanced at the nanny serving nearby.

The nanny hurriedly said: ”No, no, I had a knife wound before, my body isn’t well, the lady couldn’t bear for me to work hard, and later the lady’s clothes were tightly covered.”

Bai Ruozhu nodded, ”I’ll prescribe some medication later, everyone who’s been in contact should drink it to prevent its spread, don’t say this out loud to avoid trouble if the Government Office finds out.”

The final sentence is definitely considerate, if Gai Yalai’s illness were contagious, with the Emperor in Beiyu City, and if known by the Imperial Doctor and Government Office, they would certainly send her out of the city.

”Is there no hope for me?” Gai Yalai cried miserably, ”If I knew I would eventually die, I shouldn’t have left the Capital to burden you.”

Jiang Yichun’s eyes showed impatience, ”Don’t speak pessimistically, there’s always hope.”

He finished speaking and looked at Bai Ruozhu, ”Otherwise, could you take another look, or try to treat her?”

Bai Ruozhu’s heart sank to the bottom. What did he mean? Thinking she didn’t try her best? Or deliberately didn’t want to treat?

She truly didn’t want to, but despite this, she wouldn’t really stand by and watch. They’re husband and wife, can she truly leave him to face trouble alone?

It’s genuinely beyond her capability!

”I’ve checked the pulse repeatedly, it’s not that I’m unwilling to try, this illness is at this stage, one wrong step can endanger her life, do you want your mother to die by my hands?” Bai Ruozhu trembled with anger, he was too excessive, did he ever consider her feelings? They’ve been together for two years, is she truly someone who can’t differentiate between what’s important and intentionally doesn’t help him?

He can understand wanting his mother to survive, but she’s already said she has no way, he insists on having her try, if his mother dies by her hands, how will they face each other in the future? Will their future lives still continue?

”I, I didn’t mean it like that.” Jiang Yichun became flustered, he wanted to explain, but Gai Yalai suddenly lost control and cried out.

”Anyway, it can’t be cured, just let me die, it’s more painful living like this, why not let me go peacefully?” She screamed and suddenly stood up, rushing towards the cabinet beside her.

”Madam, no!” The nanny rushed over and embraced her, but the nanny was somewhat aged and couldn’t stand firm, falling to the ground. Jiang Yichun was startled, quickly stepped forward to help them, then tightly held Gai Yalai.

Bai Ruozhu stood nearby, feeling like an outsider, unable to help, yet unable to refrain from helping.

Yet she truly has no solution, trying might offer a chance, but she has no assurance, just like the curse Diao Bin had before, how could she treat it?

”I’m feeling a bit uncomfortable, I’ll return to my room first.” Bai Ruozhu said blandly and exited the Main Hall.

She was truly suffocating inside, Gai Yalai used a messy ointment, the smell of which was bad for the fetus in her belly.

”Ruozhu...” Jiang Yichun called out, wanting to chase after her, yet couldn’t leave Gai Yalai who wanted to die, leaving him in a dilemma, wishing he could split himself in two.

At this time, a small figure suddenly ran in.

”Dad, Mom, I drank the milk!” Little Dengdeng’s presence blocked Bai Ruozhu who was trying to leave. Bai Ruozhu gave a signal to Nanny Zhang, telling her to find an opportunity to take Dengdeng away.

This place is not where Dengdeng should come.

People who contacted Gai Yalai can drink decoction to prevent it, but Dengdeng is a child, how could he drink decoction randomly?

Dengdeng then ran to hug his father’s leg, suspiciously looked at Gai Yalai wearing a gauze cap, and asked, ”Dad, how can you hug other women? You’re being unfair to Mom!”

Jiang Yichun’s mouth twitched, gently pinching his son’s ear as a punishment, ”Little rascal, this is your dad’s biological mom, you should call her grandma.”

Gai Yalai suddenly abandoned her suicidal thoughts, excitedly squatting down to hold Dengdeng’s hand, saying: ”This is Little Dengdeng, Grandma brought you a greeting gift.”

As she spoke, she took off a gold bracelet from her wrist and handed it to Dengdeng.

Bai Ruozhu’s heart leaped into her throat, is there a custom for elders to give children bracelets as gifts? And especially to a boy.

The bracelet was worn close to the skin, giving it to Dengdeng like this isn’t too risky? How could she not be careful!

Bai Ruozhu gritted her teeth, stepped forward and pulled Dengdeng’s hand, saying: ”Thank Grandma.”

Dengdeng timidly said: ”Thank you Grandma.”

”Your grandma is seriously ill and needs proper rest, you mustn’t disturb her, let’s return to our room and draw.” Bai Ruozhu dragged Little Dengdeng to leave.

Gai Yalai reluctantly stretched out her hand, ”Good grandson, let grandma look at you properly.”

Unfortunately, Dengdeng had no feelings for her; he loved his mom taking him to draw and tell stories, so he followed his mom without hesitation.

Bai Ruozhu walked away with her son, and Gai Yalai collapsed on the ground, saying sorrowfully, ”I’ve finally obtained a grandson, but it’s a pity I couldn’t hold him, but this is enough, I can die peacefully.”

She looked at Jiang Yichun, ”I’ll move out, I don’t want to disturb anyone here.”

Jiang Yichun frowned, ”You’re my mother, you won’t disturb anyone, I’ll arrange a quieter place for you, don’t think too much.”

After speaking, he gave a few orders to Lightning, telling them to keep an eye on Gai Yalai before preparing to leave.

He hadn’t gone far when he heard Gai Yalai sighing to the nanny, ”Does Ruozhu despise me? Doesn’t want me to see Little Dengdeng? Alas, I can’t blame her, who let me contract this strange disease? This is retribution, for not taking care of Chun brother back then, heaven is punishing me.”

”Madam, don’t think like that, perhaps there’s a doctor who can treat it, the Guest Palace is nearby, aren’t there many Imperial Doctors? Why not ask the young master to invite them for a consultation?” Nanny’s voice choked as she persuaded.

Jiang Yichun’s clenched fist tightened further, he must find a way to save his mother, even as a repayment for the grace of his birth.

Two matters to discuss, first Mouka is overtaxed, seemingly a bit dehydrated, with sore throat and headache, hence the update isn’t powerful, 555;

The other matter is someone mentioned Ruozhu being too much and too contrived, Ruozhu is unaware of Ruolan’s condition, she never witnessed it firsthand, and she’s a protective individual, protecting her own family is normal. Moreover, in the realm of emotions, there are bound to be bumps and hurdles, being concerned tends to cause disputes, if a person isn’t concerned, of course, it doesn’t matter.
