Chapter 896: Let Me Feel Your Pulse First

ixing it with the medicine she had prepared for Zongyu last time. Unexpectedly, the medicine was used on herself so quickly.She directed the three women in the house to properly process the medicinal...Fang Jinshiu, accompanied by Xiaoyue, quickly left the dental clinic and headed towards Zhengxing Street.

Fu Shangyuan had just come down from upstairs.

"Have you told her everything"

The manager nodded repeatedly, "I reported back to the Lord that everything has been told to Madam Fang as you instructed."

He looked at Fang Jinshu's back and shook his head with a smile.

"Tough talk, soft heart. He's a lot like a bamboo mat in that way."

Sometimes he didn't understand why he kept reminding Fang Jinshu about these small things over and over again. He always felt that he could see his own past shadow in her, as well as the image of Ruoli.

Fu Shangyuan retracted his gaze and looked at the carriage. A little servant stepped forward to deliver a message.

"My Lord, the Seventh Prince has been waiting at the palace for a long time."

Fu Shangyuan nodded. "Go back to the mansion,"

Fang Jinshu quickly found Zhao Wu's house. This alley had seven or eight households, each with a rather small doorway. To own such a courtyard in the capital city, where every inch of land is valuable, their family situation must be considered quite well-off.

But I'm not rich either.

Many minor officials of the eighth and ninth ranks also lived in courtyards of a similar size.

"Go knock on the door."

Little Yue knocked on the family's door.

"Is anyone home"

In a short while, a loud female voice rang out from within the room, "Who is it"

As the question was asked, the door creaked open a sliver. The woman peered out cautiously, her gaze falling on Fang Jinshi and her servant. Her expression turned wary upon seeing them.

"Who are you"

"What are you doing at my house"

Fang Jinshu smiled gently, “We are Zhao Yunni’s friends. We heard she got married here today and came to visit.”

"For not delivering a visiting card beforehand, we are indeed disrespectful. This is a small token of our goodwill to your esteemed household. We hope elder sister will not find it wanting."

Upon seeing the gift, the woman immediately changed her expression. She opened all the doors and became much more warm and friendly in her tone.

"Well now, who would this be Turns out it's a friend of my dear sister-in-law."

"You're too kind, bringing a gift as well."

She spoke politely, but her actions betrayed her. She snatched the large basket of fruit from Xiaoyue's hands as if it were a valuable treasure.

Come in, come in! My third younger sister has been sickly lately and is still sleeping in her room right now.

"He practically married a living Bodhisattva. She can't lift anything or carry anything, and she gets sick all the time."

The woman began to chatter unconsciously, words she had uttered countless times in her daily life. She had forgotten that the two people behind her were Zhao Yunni's friends who had come to see her.

She quickly shut her mouth and smiled, pointing to Zhao Wu's room.

"That's the one, you guys go take a look at her. I don't have my sister-in-law's good fortune, being able to lie down and rest in broad daylight. I still have a bunch of things to do."

"Life is so hard."

After she finished speaking, she ran into the main hall, tightly clutching the basket of fruit Fang Jinshi had given her, and disappeared.

Xiaoyue frowned, "Madam, Miss Zhao Wu is at least the daughter of a wealthy family. How could she marry into such a place"

Fang Jinshu had many questions in her mind. She looked at the dilapidated wooden door, "Let's go in and see."

She still let Xiao Yue knock on the door first. At first, there was no movement inside. Xiao Yue knocked three times before a faint rustling sound appeared, followed by a few coughs.

After a cough, a soft voice called them in.

Hearing Zhao Wu's cough, Fang Jinxiu sensed that her old ailment had recurred. She pushed open the door with a sense of urgency.

Zhao Wu had just recovered from childbirth, but her old sinus problem flared up again, and she started coughing. With one illness on top of another, she felt constantly dizzy and lightheaded.

Hearing the knock, I instinctively called out for them to come in.

She had long forgotten that the Du family would barge into their bedroom without knocking.

"Who" She realized that the person entering wasn't a member of the Du family, and a fair hand had already grasped her arm.

After entering the room, Fang Jinshu took three steps and came to Zhao Wu's side, grasping her arm.

"It's me, Jinshu."

Zhao Wu stiffened, abruptly raising his head, his face filled with disbelief.

"Jin, Jinshu, cough, cough!" A violent coughing fit followed his excitement.

Zhao Wu's face turned red from coughing, but she didn't seem to care. She was happily watching her.

"I thought I'd never get to see you again in this lifetime."

"It's really you, Jinxiu."

But, but how could you appear at the Du family, you.

Zhao Wu had a lot of questions.

Fang Jinshu, however, used her index finger to press against her lips, "Don't speak first, you're quite ill. Let me feel your pulse."topic of conversation and Jade Lotus's occasional teasing, Fang Jinshu's journey with Tie Zhu was lively and playful. This seemed to lift her spirits somewhat.At least he wasn't as listless as he was...
