Chapter 117 Presumptuous
"You guys go back to the yard and clean up first, and let Xiangyun follow me."
Shen Qingyu rode in a carriage for a whole day, but did not return to his own residence. Instead, he rushed directly to Shen Youhong's courtyard in a hurry.
If possible, it would be good to let this child survive.
But she was really incompetent and didn't know how to save the child's life.
Tiangang displays his power, Xuanwu follows behind; Yucai shakes his bow, Mars shines brightly; divine light shines, Taibai becomes auspicious; Liubing comes to welcome, and all blessings return.
As soon as he stepped into Shen Youhong's yard, Shen Qingyu saw several Taoists performing rituals to exorcise ghosts, muttering to themselves, with yellow papers covered with spells flying everywhere and smoke from burning incense hanging around.
"Second miss."
Xiangyun shrank back in fear. The sight of the foul smell in the yard made her feel uneasy.
Shen Qingyu felt ridiculous, but also uneasy.
If the condition had not been serious to a certain extent, Bai Ying would not have thought of this solution. Even though she had been burning incense and praying to Buddha for Shen Youhong all year round, she was born in the Bai family, an auspicious family in Hejian Prefecture. How could she not know that only medicine could save a life?
Shen Qingyu hurriedly pushed the door open and went in.
The atmosphere inside was even more depressing. The maids who usually served Shen Youhong were kneeling on the ground, crying quietly.
Bai Ying held a whip in her hand and whipped them one by one like a madman, "It's you, you little bitches who have harmed my son like this. I will beat you to death so that you won't serve the young master well."
The maids all cried and trembled, "Madam, we will never dare to do that again, please spare us!"
Shen Qingyu was furious. He snatched the whip from Bai Ying's hand and sneered, "Even if you beat them all to death, will Hong'er's illness be cured?"
Shen Youhong's disease was brought from his mother's womb. Just like her body, Bai Ying gave birth to it with great difficulty. However, she was much luckier than Shen Youhong and survived without taking any medicine.
Shen Qingyu even wondered if Bai Ying's excessive doting and caution towards Shen Youhong made his illness worse.
At a young age, Shen Youhong started drinking those precious medicinal foods, such as thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum and hundred-year-old mountain ginseng, which were obtained by Bai Ying from her mother's home in Hejian Prefecture.
If Old Master Bai were still alive, Bai Ying would not have to ask for help, but now the head of the Bai family is Master Bai. Master Bai was very opposed to Bai Ying marrying Shen Chuanhe in the first place, so he did not take Shen Youhong's illness that seriously back then.
When Bai Ying first brought Shen Youhong to the Bai family to see Mr. Bai, Mr. Bai said that the child would not live past the age of ten. It was only when Bai Ying knelt down and begged that Mr. Bai reluctantly prescribed some medicine to prolong Shen Youhong's life.
I heard that when Bai Ying gave birth to her, Mr. Bai was in Jinling Prefecture at the time. He came to visit the Shen family on the way and saw her. He asserted at the time that she would not live long, but she survived.
It was really fate that Bai Ying tried every means to keep her son alive, but Shen Youhong became more and more seriously ill. Bai Ying ignored her and even hoped to exchange her life for Shen Youhong's, but she was alive and well. Shen Qingyu sighed.
"You all go down."
After sending away a group of little girls who were kneeling on the ground and crying, Shen Qingyu looked coldly at Bai Ying who had a haggard face. She had never regarded this woman as her mother.
"What are you doing here? Get out!"
Bai Ying's face was ferocious, and he looked at Shen Qingyu as if he had seen an enemy.
"Hong'er is sick. As his elder sister, can't I come to see him?"
She was such a good mother to her. Even if she died outside, Bai Ying wouldn't ask any questions. She had suffered so much on Yuntai Mountain and was troubled by Aunt Liu, but the moment she saw Bai Ying, she stopped herself from seeing Hong'er.
Shen Qingyu didn't treat her as his own relative, so the pain in his heart was naturally alleviated a lot. However, looking at Bai Ying's face and thinking of her identity, he couldn't let it go completely.
After all, this body's biological mother is Bai Ying. Shen Qingyu in the book spent her entire life just wanting to get her mother's love. Even though she was used by Aunt Liu and dressed up like that, it was only because Aunt Liu said, "Madam likes it."
But in Bai Ying's heart, the most important thing is her son. Even Aunt Liu still loves Shen Xitong very much. But her inconspicuous daughter is a loss of face in Bai Ying's eyes, so she is naturally dispensable. Only if she has a little bit of value will Bai Ying take a second look at her.
On the bed, Shen Youhong's little face was terribly pale, without a trace of blood, his eyes were tightly closed, and he was breathing slightly, but his breath was very weak.
Why can't Shen Youhong hold on now? It is clear that the drama of the mother going crazy after the son's death will not happen until after the New Year, so why is Shen Youhong so sick now?
Shen Qingyu felt a pang in her heart. Just as she took a step forward, Bai Ying pushed her to the ground fiercely. "Shen Qingyu, don't touch him! The Master said that your zodiac signs conflict with each other. From now on, I won't allow you to step into this place and harm your brother. If anything happens to your brother, I will never let you go!"
It was those Taoist priests who were playing tricks again. Shen Qingyu smiled sadly and said disappointedly, "Mother, I thought you had learned from the experience of Taoist Qingyun and knew right from wrong. I didn't expect you to be so confused!"
"How dare you!" Bai Ying's eyes were filled with anger. He raised his hand and slapped Shen Qingyu, saying angrily, "If you hadn't mentioned Taoist Qingyun, I would have forgotten about him. Maybe what he said is not wrong. You, Shen Qingyu, are born with a hard life and are going to kill your brother!"
"Okay, if you insist on thinking so, I have nothing to say." The past became a sharp blade stabbing at her. The most crucial thing about this knife was that it was stabbed by her biological mother. Shen Qingyu really felt that there was no need to continue.
But when she stood up, she saw Shen Youhong, and then she met Bai Ying's eyes without fear, "Forgive me for being frank, but the person who caused Hong'er to suffer from all kinds of diseases is none other than you. You are blind and fell in love with someone as fickle as my father. You deserve not to be favored by him in this life. You are arrogant and conceited, and disdain to compete with Aunt Liu. Now you deserve her to climb over your head and show off in the Shen family!"
"You!" Bai Ying was so angry at her, this unfilial daughter. She just reached out to hit Shen Qingyu again, but was intimidated by Shen Qingyu's cold eyes and stopped in mid-air.
"Mrs. Shen, while you are still the wife of the Shen family, please call a doctor immediately. Even if you invite the Zen Taoist from Lingxu Temple, he may not be able to save Hong'er. Mrs. Shen, please wake up!"
