PFC Chapter 52 Asleep
Chapter 52 Asleep
Dr. Zhou was also aggrieved; all he could say was:
"I've checked carefully. I really am asleep. There's nothing else wrong with my body."
Dr. Zhou didn't believe it either, but he was still very confident in his medical skills. The young man was clearly asleep; there was nothing wrong with him.
After checking carefully again, he still concluded that she was asleep.
Jia Daishan asked:
Are you sure there are no other problems?
Dr. Zhou said:
"My lords, Young Master Hu is truly fine. I swear on my life! Young Master Hu is really asleep."
Just as he was at a loss for words, Jia Hu suddenly turned over and began to snore softly.
Dr. Zhou immediately knelt on the ground, thinking to himself, "These two gentlemen are really terrifying, as if they want to cut me into a thousand pieces."
Thanks to Hu Xiaoye's reaction, that little snore saved my life.
Seeing the smile on Jia Hu's face and hearing Jia Hu's soft snores, Jia Daishan breathed a sigh of relief, relaxed his body, and leaned back in his chair.
Hu'er, you've really scared your grandfather to death today.
Seeing that Jia Hu was truly asleep, Zhang Heming, though still somewhat surprised and uncertain, felt a little relieved and had his son help him sit down in a chair.
Jia Daishan said:
"I've troubled Dr. Zhou to make the trip again, but today..."
Doctor Zhou quickly replied, "Nothing happened today."
"I can tell," said Dr. Zhou tactfully.
Jia Daishan nodded in satisfaction.
"I will have the housekeeper pay you an extra three months' worth of monthly interest."
Doctor Zhou was a little happier after that. After bowing, he went outside and saw the sun, feeling as if he had escaped a disaster that day.
After everyone had left, Zhang Heming immediately asked:
"Brother Daishan, what exactly is going on? How can I hear what Huo'er is thinking? And what's wrong with Hu'er?"
Jia Daishan sighed and said:
"I don't know why, but ever since Hu'er woke up, I've been able to hear what he's thinking. After a few times, I discovered that people who are related by blood or live close by can sometimes hear Hu'er's thoughts."
Most of them are prophecies about the future. Sometimes you can hear them, sometimes you can't.
Everyone gasped in shock.
Zhang Heming said:
"Knowing the future!"
Jia Daishan nodded: "Yes, if it weren't for Hu'er, I would have been buried long ago. Hu'er saved my life. But I wonder if Hu'er suffered this today because she revealed too much."
Jia Daishan gently wiped the sweat from Jia Hu's forehead with a handkerchief.
Zhang Heming was so shocked that he plucked out his own beard.
"I saved you, what happened?"
Jia Daishan:
"It was Hu'er who said that there were suspicious circumstances surrounding my death, that she discovered there was a spy in my courtyard, and that she was poisoned. Even the fact that Hu'er was pushed into the water had a reason; it was all orchestrated by the princes."
Zhang Heming was shocked. He wanted to slam his fist on the table, but remembering that Jia Hu was sleeping, he clenched his fist and forcibly restrained himself.
"When Hu'er fell into the water that day, I was suspicious. How could she suddenly fall into the water? It turns out someone tampered with it. I've lived an upright life, and I didn't even know my own grandson was almost harmed. Did those people really think I was weak and easy to bully?!"
Uncle Zhang was also furious, but at this moment, seeing his enraged father, he could only step forward to appease him.
Jia Daishan looked at the same person he had just met, sighed, and said:
“You’re getting on in years, Zhiyuan, quickly help your father sit down, don’t let him get agitated.”
Zhang Zhiyuan and Jia She persuaded their father to sit down. Zhang Shiyan was in a state of confusion and surprise, but he obediently poured tea for everyone.
Jia Daishan continued:
"This must be Hu'er's extraordinary encounter, because according to Hu'er's guess, she wouldn't have survived being pushed into the water that day. But now, through this extraordinary encounter, she has learned the fate of all of us."
He has been trying hard to change the situation of our Jia family. If he hadn't reminded me, I wouldn't have realized that our Jia family is only superficially prosperous, but is gradually deteriorating internally.
Everyone gasped again. Zhang Heming was both shocked and frightened; he had almost lost his grandson.
"If what you say is true, then you have received a great opportunity, but why is Hu'er like this today?"
Jia Daishan said:
"I don't know either. I'm just afraid that if we knew the future, it would be bad for Hu'er. That's my fault too."
Zhang Heming:
"This is not your fault. Hu'er is so kind. You are his grandfather, so he must have tried everything to save you. Now I see that Hu'er doesn't seem to be in any pain, and his face is relaxed. The doctor also said that he is asleep. So let's wait for Hu'er to wake up. Then we should know the reason."
Jia Daishan said:
"I will instruct the guards not to mention what happened today, and not to let anyone know that Hu'er fainted."
Zhang Heming nodded and said:
"The fewer people who know about this, the safer it will be for Hu'er."
He also instructed his son and grandson to keep their mouths shut, and I was determined not to tell anyone.
The two of them immediately nodded firmly.
Zhang Shiyan was young, and although he found it amazing, he understood that such an important matter should never be known to others.
Zhang Heming is quite at ease with his son and grandson.
Jia Hu still hadn't woken up by evening, so they couldn't stay any longer and had to go back.
Before leaving, he kept telling Jia Daishan that he must go and inform them when Jia Hu woke up.
Jia Daishan assured them that he would stay by Hu'er's side until she woke up, and would notify them immediately once she did.
After everyone had left, Grandmother Jia was going to host another banquet that evening. Although Jia Daishan had no intention of attending, he was afraid that others would notice something amiss, so he could only arrange for his trusted confidants to stay by Jia Hu's side at all times.
When they came out to attend the banquet, no one saw Jia Hu. Jia Daishan only said that Jia Hu was tired in the afternoon and was sleeping in the room, so he did not wake him up.
Jia Zhu and Jia Zhen, the two little mice, laughed like little mice that had stolen oil.
The two decided that when they saw the older brother the next day, they would definitely make fun of him mercilessly. At the same time, they felt sorry for their brother, who hadn't been able to attend such a lively banquet.
The next day, Jia Hu still hadn't woken up by the time Jia Daishan was about to go to court. Jia Daishan was a little uneasy and wondered if he should call the imperial physician to take a look, but upon seeing that Jia Hu was breathing evenly and had a rosy complexion...
They decided to wait until the afternoon when the patient still hadn't woken up before calling the imperial physician.
Jia Daishan sent someone to say that it was too late yesterday, so he gave the three children another day off. He also ordered his trusted confidants to keep an eye on Jia Hu before going to court with a heavy heart, hoping that Hu would be awake when he returned.
When Jia Daishan encountered Zhang Heming at court, he saw Zhang Heming's questioning gaze and shook his head at him.
Zhang Heming's shoulders slumped, and he felt very worried.
After attending court, Jia Daishan immediately rushed home and, looking at the fellow sleeping soundly, said:
"Hu'er, you've worried your grandfather to death! When will you wake up? Haven't you had enough sleep yet?"
