Chapter 373 Worrying about gains and losses
Song Ruize looked at the deserted courtyard, his gaze fixed on the room without candlelight.
"The eldest lady sent someone to say that she won't be coming in the next few days." said the servant beside her.
In the Tang residence, Qin Huiyin was the second young lady. In the Song residence, she was the eldest young lady, the one and only mistress.
Song Ruize had expected this, but he still felt a little disappointed when he heard the news.
"Ah."
"The young lady sent over some cakes," the servant said. "I've never seen such exquisite cakes before. I've really broadened my horizons today."
While the servant was talking, another servant had already opened the food box sent by Qin Huiyin. The cake in the food box was none other than the cake she had made for him before. However, the first cake she made for him was a large one, while today's cake was small and exquisite.
Although it is small, it has several flavors. In addition, there are some other types of pastries, each of which is very beautiful. Whether you like to eat it or not, just looking at it is pleasing to the eye.
Song Ruize took it.
Qin Huiyin saw that Tang Yichen had eaten two pieces of cake and stopped him from eating.
To cater to the taste of the men in her family, she reduced the sweetness so that it tasted rich in fruit flavor and would not be greasy. However, even so, she could not eat too much and be careful of indigestion.
Tang Yichen rarely eats cakes on weekdays, but as long as Qin Huiyin makes them, he will appreciate it. Of course, Qin Huiyin's cakes are indeed better than others.
"Is Big Brother feeling better today?"
"Actually, I don't feel any discomfort. I even want to get out of bed and walk around."
"Let's forget about it today. Let's observe it for another day tomorrow. If he feels okay, we can try to get out of bed and walk around. Anyway, my younger brother is at home. If anything happens, just call him over. It shouldn't be a problem."
"I've been lying down all day and I'm almost turned into a piece of wood." Tang Yichen said helplessly.
"I'll use a soft pillow to cushion you and change your position." Qin Huiyin said, and asked Zhilan to go back to her room to get a soft pillow.
There are no soft pillows in Tang Yichen's room. Only Qin Huiyin likes to sleep with a soft pillow in her arms, and sometimes sit on the bed with a soft pillow to read storybooks.
Qin Huiyin put a few soft pillows under Tang Yichen, and Tang Yichen's stiff body finally felt a little more comfortable.
Tang Yi smiled and came in with the medicine soup: "It's time to take the medicine."
"I'll fry it for you myself." Qin Huiyin said.
"How is Luwu?" Tang Yichen knew that Tang Luwu was sick and asked about her condition several times.
"I just went to see her. Her fever has subsided, but she still has no energy and wants to sleep." Tang Yi said with a smile, "She just took some medicine, let her sleep!"
"I have already written a memorial. Lin Zhang's case should be tried in the next few days. I will send someone to the Jingzhao government office to find out the result." A cold look flashed in Tang Yichen's eyes.
If he was treated with care, he would crawl to the palace even with his injuries and make Lin Zhang pay the price he deserved.
"Chen Yu."
"Sir." Chen Yu came in.
"Go to the Jingzhao government office and see how Lin Zhang is doing in prison."
Chen Yu should be.
They said they were going to see Lin Zhang's situation in prison, but in fact they were just trying to put pressure on the Jingzhao government.
Although Tang Yichen's current official position is not high, he is the most valued among the rising stars by the emperor and is considered a popular figure around the emperor. Such a person should not be offended, and it is wise to make friends with him.
On the second night, Tang Yixiao took Tang Yichen's pulse and examined his body. After confirming that his health had improved a lot, he tried to get him out of bed and walk around.
Tang Yixiao sat in the yard and watched Tang Yichen walk slowly. Tang Yichen was supported by Qin Huiyin. He first tried to walk for a few minutes. Later, when he did not have any bad symptoms, he walked for a while longer.
Tang Yi smiled as he looked at the two people holding hands, and suddenly a ridiculous idea came to his mind, that is - his eldest brother and second sister seemed to be a perfect match.
He shook his head to clear the water from his brain.
He must be crazy.
I can only say that these two people are so good-looking, one is as gentle as jade, and the other is bright and gorgeous. They are very pleasing to the eye when standing together.
Tang Luwu came over and said, "Brother, can you get out of bed and walk around now?"
"Yes, brother got out of bed before you. You got sick too quickly. Are you feeling better now?" Qin Huiyin helped Tang Yichen sit at the stone table, turned and walked towards Tang Luwu, touching her forehead.
Tang Luwu's face was still very pale and she looked very weak.
"I'm all right."
"Sister, you still need to take good care of your body." Tang Yi said with a smile, "I recently prepared some medicine. You can take one every day to make your body stronger."
"What do you mean by stronger?" Qin Huiyin said unhappily, "Your eldest sister is such a beautiful girl, is it appropriate for you to ask her to be stronger?"
"It's not to make her grow stronger. My medicine is specially prepared to prevent her from catching minor illnesses like colds. I also prepared it for you, so you have to take it too."
"Does my body need conditioning too?"
"How many people in this world don't need to take care of their bodies? I've prescribed some medicine for Mom, and Dad has given it to me too. Big brother will have to take it when the time comes. Everyone in our family needs to take medicine to strengthen their bodies."
"It's great to have a miracle doctor at home. How much money can we save every year?" Qin Huiyin said, "Okay, we'll all eat."
"Let's have hot pot today!" Tang Yichen said, "It's rare that everyone at home is here. It's been a long time since our family has been together like this."
"That's right. I'm always in the Imperial Hospital now and rarely come home. Big brother sometimes runs errands late, so you'll have already had dinner when he comes back. Once your two sisters open their shops and are busy with business matters, I'm afraid they won't be home much either. It's rare that you're all here today, so we really should get together. Big brother has been eating very light food these days, and I'm afraid his mouth is tasteless now, so he wants to eat something savory."
The Tang family was having a lively reunion, and Song Ruize and several brothers were on duty in Dongcheng.
Chen Yong came over and said, "The Jingzhao government tried Lin Zhang's case and sentenced him to exile."
"If it was just drinking and causing trouble, he wouldn't be sentenced to such a serious crime. I guess the crime should be disobeying the emperor's will, right?" Jiang Qingnan said.
"That's right. Our informants said the Jingzhao government was initially hesitant, but someone from the Ministry of War interceded, and the Jingzhao government wanted to let him go lightly. But yesterday, the Tang family sent someone to inquire about Lin Zhang's case and observed his condition in the prison. They said that Lin Zhang cursed at the people sent by Tang Yichen and said some disrespectful things. The Tang family is holding on to this matter, and the Jingzhao government sentenced him to exile today." Chen Yong said, "Just after the verdict was announced today, Lin Zhang was blinded in one eye, had a leg broken, and had an arm shattered. This Tang family is just as cunning as us!"
