Chapter 143 Hanging Suicide
Chapter 143 Hanging Suicide
Before Xu Qingfeng had time to leave the hospital, the dean told him to take Zuo Zixuan as his master and study medicine well.
He already felt extremely insecure being alone in Zedu, so this news was like timely relief for him.
People say that once a teacher, always a father.
Zuo Zixuan was his mentor in the 22nd century, and was also his master. Meeting her in this strange world would be like meeting his biological parents, right?
He ran to the aisle of the consulting room excitedly and shouted, "Master..., my disciple is here!"
The villagers queuing in the aisle immediately started talking.
"Is this person mentally ill?"
"No way? This seems to be the nephew of the dean."
"What is he yelling about? Who is his master?"
Zuo Zixuan was sitting in the clinic and heard his roar. He lowered his head and continued writing prescriptions.
What sin has she committed? How could there be such a stupid student? It's so shameful.
What should I do if I suddenly want to beat him to death?
Xu Qingfeng came to the consulting room with the happy pace of Xiao Erlang.
"Master, here I come..."
Zuo Zixuan ignored him.
He didn't care, he was thick-skinned anyway. He lifted a stool, put it next to Zuo Zixuan and sat down, saying in a flattering manner:
"Master, please take a rest on the side. Let me treat this minor illness."
Zuo Zixuan did not refuse. These colds, fevers and coughs were not serious illnesses for Xu Qingfeng.
From Xu Qingfeng's perspective, she just happened to be happy to have some free time, so she decided to let this guy practice his skills.
Despite this, she read every prescription Xu Qingfeng wrote, pointed out the problems immediately and explained the principles behind them.
The villagers who came to see the doctor were worried about Xu Qingfeng at first, but when they saw Zuo Zixuan sitting next to him giving instructions, they gradually felt relieved.
The two assistants assigned to Zuo Zixuan were listening attentively, but they could only understand half of what the two said.
If they didn't understand something, they would ask Zuo Zixuan. Zuo Zixuan would also explain it to them, but it was too professional and it was really difficult for them to understand.
Zuo Zixuan was also helpless. Since they were not graduates from professional schools, what he was saying was indeed difficult for them to understand.
And I can't teach them from the very basics, right? So, when they ask, she answers, and as for how much they can understand, that depends on their ability to understand.
In the afternoon, Mr. He went home and stopped by the military hospital to pick up Zuo Zixuan.
She was quite surprised to see a young man jumping and skipping behind her.
After getting in the car, before Zuo Zixuan could say anything, Xu Qingfeng introduced himself in a familiar manner.
“Hello, Uncle He, my name is Xu Qingfeng, I’m Dean Zhou’s nephew, and I’m also your daughter-in-law’s apprentice.
I am learning medicine from my master, so I will have to visit you in the near future."
Father He smiled awkwardly, turned around and asked Zuo Zixuan, "Xuanxuan, what's going on?"
"Dean Zhou gave it to me. I had known this guy before in another city, so I agreed to let Dean Zhou take him in as his apprentice."
Xu Qingfeng sat in the back and nodded obediently, indicating that what Zuo Zixuan said was true.
Although Mr. He felt that it was inappropriate for Zuo Zixuan to bring a foreign man home, he did not say much.
As soon as Xu Qingfeng arrived at the He family, he greeted everyone in the He family very enthusiastically, making everyone in the He family very happy.
Grandpa He and Grandma He particularly like Xu Qingfeng and are very enthusiastic towards him.
The day after they followed Zuo Zixuan, they investigated Xu Qingfeng.
He is the youngest son of the Minister of Finance of the Central Ministry and the only male in the Xu family. His three older sisters are already married and their husbands' families are among the most powerful official families in Kyoto.
It can be said that Xu Qingfeng can do whatever he wants in Kyoto.
He came to Zedu just for a transition period, and sooner or later he would have to go to the Kyoto General Military Hospital.
But there is always something that I can't stand in this family.
When He Zhou saw Zuo Zixuan bringing Xu Qingfeng home, he started to talk again, cursing that Zuo Zixuan was cheating on He Yi and bringing a strange man home, and he had to teach her a lesson.
If Grandma He hadn't yelled at her, she would have torn Zuo Zixuan to pieces.
"He Zhou, you're already married. Your grandfather and I haven't said anything about the He family's affairs. What qualifications do you have to make decisions here?
You've been here for a few days, it's time for you to go back. Go back to Kyoto with Sotoku tomorrow morning.
But as someone who has been through this, I advise you to control your temper.
Do you feel that no matter how arrogant and domineering you are, the Bai family and Zongde will support you?
You and Zongde have been married for three years and have not given birth to any children.
Then you can try it. If you don’t have your family behind you, can you still be so arrogant? "
Grandma He slammed the table and said angrily.
In the few days since He Zhou came back, he has offended everyone in the family.
Even the villagers who came to see Zuo Zixuan for medical treatment would be criticized by her.
I had thought that she would be leaving after just a few days, so I didn't argue with her and just turned a blind eye.
But who knew that she would go too far and almost made me die of anger.
Could it be that this person's core has also been replaced?
"Don't blame me for not reminding you. If you continue to do that and affect Zongde's career, the Bai family will kick you out immediately.
If you are kicked out in the future, you should start a new life on your own outside and don’t come back to our He family to embarrass yourself.”
Every word Grandma He said hit He Zhou's chest. She suddenly remembered the time when Bai Zongde lost his temper with her at the train station, and she became more scared.
After Grandma He finished speaking, she slammed the door and left angrily.
Mother He sighed, looked at He Zhou who was in tears, and said in a calm tone:
"He Zhou, your performance this time really disappoints me.
Although it is a new era now, the feudal system is no longer popular.
But since you are marrying Zongde, shouldn’t you make many friends and pave the way for his career?
You are so arrogant and aggressive all day long that you offend everyone. It will only shorten Zongde's career.
If Zongde's career is ruined, even if he doesn't divorce you, how good will your life be?"
He Zhou and Bai Zongde have been married for three years and have tried countless ways to get pregnant but still cannot.
Although the Bai family said they didn't care, at worst they could just raise someone from their cousin's family.
I have never agreed to adopt a child.
She knew very well what her mother-in-law was thinking.
The child that was brought back was said to be from a cousin's family, but who knows if it was Bai Zongde's bastard child?
There is nothing they can’t do in those wealthy families’ mansions, except what you can’t imagine.
So her attitude was particularly tough. She made it clear at the time that even if He Zhou couldn't give birth, she would definitely not adopt the child. If the Bai family disliked her, they could just send the child back to her.
Fortunately, although his mother-in-law was not an easy person to deal with, Bai Zongde did not inherit his mother's evil nature.
Over the years, he has been very obedient to He Zhou and has been very fond of him.
Otherwise, she would have brought the person back long ago. With He Zhou's brain, could he defeat her nine-tailed fox-like mother-in-law?
Originally, she was thinking that since He Fan and He Chu were getting married, she would take this opportunity to ask Zuo Zixuan to help her figure out what had been causing her infertility for so many years.
But now, with the way she was acting, I was too embarrassed to bring up this matter with Zuo Zixuan.
He Zhou is acting weird at home all day long. Zuo Zixuan is so smart, how could she not hear the hidden meaning in her words?
People just don't want to bother with her.
It was impossible for him to offend Zuo Zixuan because of her, and it was her fault in the first place.
Mother He stood up and patted her on the shoulder.
"Zhou Zhou, Mom has said everything she needs to say. You can take care of yourself."
After saying that, he turned around and left.
He Zhou lay on the table and cried silently. She felt abandoned by everyone, like an abandoned puppy.
She knew that what her mother and grandmother said was true, but she didn't know why she was increasingly unable to control her temper.
If her family didn't want her and Bai Zongde didn't want her either, then she would really become a wandering ghost.
After ten o'clock, Bai Zongde waited in the room but He Zhou didn't come back, so he went out to look for him.
Seeing that the lights in the small reception hall in the outer courtyard were on, he walked over. He knew that He Zhou had been talking to his mother-in-law here before.
"Zhouzhou..."
He stood outside the door and knocked, but heard no movement from inside, so he knocked a few more times.
Still no movement, he reached out and pushed the door open.
When he saw the scene in the house, he was almost scared to death.
He Zhou was hanging in the middle of the room with a purple face.
Although he was frightened, he immediately regained consciousness, picked the person up, and turned to shout at the door.
"Mom..., Mom..., He Zhou hanged himself..."
"Someone, come quickly..."
When the family heard the shouting, they all ran over.
Zuo Zixuan went straight up to give He Zhou first aid without waiting for anyone to call.
Forty minutes later, after a lot of effort, the man was finally brought back to life.
He Zhou had just opened his eyes in a daze, and before he came to his senses, he was slapped twice by He's mother.
Mother He cried bitterly and yelled hysterically: "He Zhou, if you want to die, die far away from me and don't dirty my He family's land."
Everyone was stunned by the loud slap. Before they could react, He's mother rushed up and tried to tear He Zhou apart.
"I gave you your life. I worked so hard to raise you, and you actually hanged yourself?
You are a coward who can only escape. Who are you doing this for?"
Two more slaps were heard.
Everyone reacted now and quickly pulled He's mother away.
"Mom, mom...
Stop hitting me. My elder sister just came back from the brink of death. If you hit her again, she will be beaten back again."
Zuo Zixuan stood in front of He Zhou.
Dad He also quickly dragged Mom He to sit down at the table.
"Wife, don't be angry, don't be angry..."
Zuo Zixuan turned his head to look at He Zhou lying on the bench and sighed in his heart.
Why does He Yi's elder sister have such a weird personality?
However, I have heard a little about her affairs.
