Dressed as a middle-aged mistress, I want to lie down every day

The following spring, when the weather warmed up, Mrs. Zhao contacted Mo Chenxi and asked her to drink the medicine.

At the same time there is the Cao family.

Mo Chenxi hinted to her daughter-in-law to go back to her parents' home and talk about that "what if" incident, and she emphasized it.

Everyone in these two families stayed at home all winter and gained weight, and they were fatter than usual, except for Cao Yue'e's half-sister.

Cao Yue'e has two younger brothers and two younger sisters. The elder sister married into the Qiu family, and the younger sister is eleven years old. She is the youngest in the family and is spoiled. She is usually picky about food. Now she is at the age where she loves beauty and refuses to gain weight. She even lets the maids eat her midnight snack.

Seeing that her little granddaughter was so delicate and gentle, Old Lady Cao told her daughter-in-law that she didn't need to take the medicine this time and could wait until later.

Mrs. Cao heard from her stepdaughter that everything had been done on her mother-in-law's side, including the Mo family and the servants, and no one had any problems.

She said, "Let her come with us. If she's alone in the future, I'll have to trouble Doctor An to make a trip. I'll take the medicine first, and she can take it after I'm better so I can take care of her."

Seeing that her mother was willing, Mrs. Cao, as her grandmother, couldn't stop her.

She also thought that the problem was not serious, but who knew that it was this little granddaughter who could not make it. She had a fever for several days and was convulsing all over. Even Doctor An was unable to save her at the scene.

Mrs. Cao hugged her daughter and cried, saying that it was all her fault.

Old Mrs. Cao also regretted that she should have stopped her daughter-in-law firmly at that time.

Since Yue'e got married, she has been marrying well. Old Mrs. Cao's personality is not as sharp as before. Seeing how her daughter-in-law and Yue'e get along, it cannot be said that they are like real mother and daughter, but they do get along well.

So if she doesn't like something, she just keeps it to herself and doesn't say anything.

She couldn't stand her daughter-in-law spoiling her little granddaughter too much, so she deliberately told her what her daughter-in-law said to her mother and told her to hear it.

The daughter-in-law asked how many years her daughter could stay at home? With her mother's love, it would only last a dozen years. The daughter-in-law also deliberately compared her to Yue'e, saying, "It's lucky that the old lady found a good mother-in-law for her. Otherwise, it would be so pitiful. She had no mother's love since she was a child, and then met a troublesome mother-in-law, and she would suffer for the rest of her life."

After hearing what her daughter-in-law said, Old Mrs. Cao turned a blind eye, thinking that her daughter-in-law was just a little spoiled to her granddaughter in life, and she would still teach her the bigger picture.

But this pampering in life harmed my granddaughter. She found the prescribed medicine bitter and could not drink half of it. The daughter-in-law tried to coax her and even knelt down to beg her, but she said she felt uncomfortable after drinking it.

She was feeling a little better, but then my little granddaughter said she was sweating all over and smelled bad, and she insisted on taking a shower.

Her mother couldn't resist her. Although she didn't let her take a bath, she wiped her body herself. As a result of this, her condition worsened and she died.

Among the servants of the Cao family, there was a male servant in his forties who couldn't bear it anymore. The whole family cried and complained in their hearts, but they didn't dare to blame their master openly.

Mo Chenxi heard about the Cao family's affairs from her daughter-in-law. She would definitely ask about it out of concern when the Cao and Zhao families were getting vaccinated.

Seeing his daughter-in-law crying, Mo Chenxi was shocked.

Cao Yue'e choked up and said, "My little sister is gone. I couldn't make it."

Mo Chenxi's heart skipped a beat. She remembered that her daughter-in-law's younger sister was over ten years old.

"Don't you say that people who are weak shouldn't take medicine? Didn't Doctor An take your pulse?"

"After taking her pulse, I found out that my little sister is spoiled. She finds the medicine bitter and is picky about food. Later, she insisted on taking a bath. My mother only wiped her body, and she had a fever again the next day."

Mo Chenxi was speechless. Not to mention a little girl, some strong men nowadays would go to the ICU after getting a crown without even taking a shower.

You can’t blame anyone else for this.

She saw that besides sadness, there was also a hint of loneliness on Cao Yue'e's face. Perhaps her stepmother blamed her.

Alas! This is what the Queen Mother meant when she said that people’s hearts are hard to guess.

Fortunately, all the Zhao family members were fine, otherwise they would have to blame her.

After this incident, Mo Chenxi thought that he would never tell anyone else about it, but he had already told He Wenliang before, and now he regretted his hasty words.

At this time, news broke in the capital that a relative of the imperial physician had listened to the imperial physician's advice and drank a folk remedy, which resulted in the death of his son. The relative then went to the imperial physician's house to make a scene.

Mo Chenxi was the first to initiate this matter. She sent someone to invite the imperial physician to take her pulse in order to inquire about this matter.

Doctor An arrived and shook his head. "This kind of thing was bound to happen sooner or later. Those doctors knew it was to prevent smallpox, so they would definitely have their close relatives vaccinated early. The higher-ups didn't announce it, so they were just making excuses. Actually, they also hoped this would encourage more people to take the initiative to get vaccinated. People in the capital are relatives, so the more people vaccinated, the better. Some families are waiting and watching, and after this incident, those families who were waiting won't go through with it."

Mo Chenxi said, "There's nothing we can do. Even if we tell the truth that it can prevent smallpox, some people will still not believe it. Unless there's a smallpox outbreak, people will see that vaccination can indeed prevent smallpox."

Mo Chenxi said this lightly, but Doctor An's heart was beating fast.

Everyone said that Madam Mo was different from normal people. Although the treatment of Ji Lingxuan was a pre-arranged fake show, he had been practicing medicine among the people for many years and did not dare to say that he did not believe it.

He asked, "Will my second and third uncles in Shanluo want to get vaccinated next?"

Mo Chenxi said, "I'll give you an answer after I ask again."

She sent someone to call He Wenliang over. Originally, he was supposed to vaccinate both families, but she thought he might refuse now.

Unexpectedly, He Wenliang said to continue.

Mo Chenxi said, "If something happens, won't the second brother blame you?"

She didn't go directly to the second wife. It was He Wenliang who went to talk to her. She didn't want to say that you would blame her later, so she had to use this to hint.

He Wenliang said seriously, "Sister-in-law told me about this possibility when she told me before. It's not like I just found out now. I also told my second brother to think it over carefully. Anyway, I trust Sister-in-law. If this possibility really happened, it was my own agreement. I will never blame Sister-in-law."

Mo Chenxi wanted to ask He Wenyan, but didn't want to meddle in other people's business.

He Wenliang took the initiative to say, "My eldest brother and my mother, I don't plan to tell them, in case they faint."

Mo Chenxi still reminded him, "Your eldest brother has been growing flowers these past two years and is in good health, but your mother."

He Wenliang said, "If anything happens to my mother, I will be considered an unfilial son. If I tell her in advance, she will definitely not agree. Besides, my mother has never suffered in all these years because my eldest sister-in-law married into the He family. She has good food and drink. I think her body can handle it."

Since He Wenliang said so, Mo Chenxi didn't care.

As for what she told He Wenliang, it was because of He Wenliang's sincere care for her original body and nephews and nieces over the past ten years, so she allowed him to vaccinate his family in advance.

He wanted to be a filial son and a filial brother, so he had to vaccinate Old Mrs. Jiang and He Wenyan even if they were unconscious. That was his personal matter.
