Nanny Cao came in in a panic: "My Lord, the old lady didn't wake up last night. This is unusual."

"I have been serving the old lady for many years. Over the years, she always wakes up two or three times in the middle of the night. It is common for her to get water and get up at night."

"Because the palace doctor had already taken her pulse last night, although I was nervous, I didn't dare to disturb the old lady's sleep."

"When it was daybreak, I thought, at least I have to ask the old lady to get up and drink some water. The weather has been dry lately, and she hasn't had any water all night. I'm afraid her throat might be uncomfortable."

"Who knew? I called out for a long time, but the old lady didn't make any movement."

Of course Lu Song couldn't sit still anymore: "Has the court doctor come yet?"

He asked as he walked, Wang Min followed closely behind, and of course Lu Jiangnian and Yuan Wanru also wanted to follow.

Matron Cao replied, "We've already sent someone to call them. They should be at Rongshou Hall by now."

Lu Jiangnian said, "Dad, send someone to call the imperial physician."

Lu Song paused, nodded repeatedly, and immediately said to his attendant, "Quick, get the visiting card and ask for the imperial physician."

The court doctor couldn't find anything wrong last night, and I'm afraid it won't work today either. I'd better ask the imperial physician to come and take a look to see what's going on.

When they arrived at Rongshou Hall, Lu Bai had just arrived.

"Brother, what happened? Why can't I wake up mom all of a sudden?"

He looked anxious and sweat was running down his forehead.

"I don't know yet. I've already asked someone to call the imperial physician. Let's wait for the imperial physician to examine it before we can say anything."

Sure enough, the court doctor's explanation was the same as last night. He didn't understand why the old lady wouldn't wake up.

"The pulse is obviously normal, this shouldn't be happening at all."

The court doctor was so anxious that he was sweating profusely. Is his medical skill so poor?

Judging from the pulse, the old lady is just asleep.

But if he is asleep, how can we not wake him up?

Lu Bai angrily grabbed the court doctor's hand and said, "It's normal, it's normal. That's what you said last night. My mother wasted her time in vain. If you didn't understand, why didn't you tell me frankly? If anything happens to my mother, I won't forgive you!"

The court doctor's face turned pale and blue, but he was unable to refute, because he really couldn't figure out why Madam Lu was in a coma.

Sisters Cao Lanxin and Cao Lanzhi had arrived here earlier. Because of this incident, the two of them held their handkerchiefs tightly, feeling panicky and uneasy.

If something happened to my great-aunt, then they...

Zhou Fang snorted coldly, "Second Master, you're blaming the wrong person. Ultimately, the real culprit is Yuan Shi. If she hadn't relied on her extra reading to speak so rudely, how could the old lady have fainted?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Bai agreed in his heart.

He looked at Yuan Wanru with sharp eyes: "You..."

Lu Jiangnian, however, stood up and blocked Yuan Wanru's way. "Uncle, there's no need to rush to find out who's responsible. The most urgent thing is to find out why Grandmother fainted."

"The court doctor has been in the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery's mansion for many years. How could he not even be able to tell a simple pulse? Doesn't that mean that our Lu family has been hiring a mediocre doctor for so many years?"

Lu Song interrupted him in a deep voice: "Don't slander Doctor Yang. Doctor Yang is a disciple of a famous teacher and has rich experience. Your father spent a lot of effort to invite him for your grandfather."

"Second brother, don't worry. Jiang Nian is right. Now is not the time to assign blame. We need to find out why mother is in a coma."

After hearing what Lu Song and his son said, the court doctor finally breathed a sigh of relief and tried to explain a few words.

"Thank you for your trust, Lord. I am deeply grateful."

"Second Master, I don't dare to claim to have the ability to bring the dead back to life, but I have studied under a famous teacher and have seen thousands, if not tens of thousands, of patients."

"If I don't even have the basic skills like taking a pulse, how can I be called a 'doctor'?"

"In Yang's opinion, the old lady's symptoms are very strange. It's probably not caused by a temporary stimulus. Perhaps after the imperial physician examines her, he can find the root cause."

"But, after all, I still find myself lacking in talent and knowledge. I feel deeply ashamed."

After hearing this, Lu Bai finally calmed down a little.

There is some truth to these words.

He's in such good health, how could he fall into a coma just because he got angry?

Seeing this, Zhou Fang sarcastically said, "Doctor Yang, since you are so incompetent, don't make rash judgments. I've heard of people being angered to death. It's not surprising that someone was angered into unconsciousness."

"In short, Big Brother and Big Sister-in-law should take good care of Yuan Shi. The old lady is old and can't stand being contradicted repeatedly."

Wang Min's face was stern, and she replied coldly, "Wanru is my daughter-in-law. It's not my second brother's wife's turn to worry about whether I discipline her or not."

"Why, are you complaining that your hand isn't long enough? You've handed back the housekeeping power, and you still think it's not enough? Silver..."

When Zhou Fang heard this, she knew that Wang Min wanted to bring up the fact that she had arranged for someone to steal Yuan Wanru's letters. This matter must not be made public.

Lu Bai still doesn't know about it.

"Sister-in-law, you're joking. How could I dare to meddle in the affairs of the first house? I just said something. If you don't like it, just pretend you didn't hear it."

Wang Min looked at her coldly, with a threatening look in his eyes.

At the beginning, it was Wanru who accepted Zhou Fang's money and promised to keep it secret.

But she didn't agree.

If Zhou Fang insisted on putting the blame of the old lady fainting from anger on Wanru, then she wouldn't mind letting the two Lu brothers know how shameless Zhou Fang had done in private.

Anyway, Wanru was angry, and Zhou Fang was angry too. Who can be sure that the old lady's current situation was not caused by the fact that she was so angry before?

In short, everyone has a responsibility.

Cao Lanzhi glared at Yuan Wanru angrily. She and her sister stood in the corner and couldn't get a word in in front of their elders, but she just wouldn't accept it.

She couldn't help but whisper to Cao Lanxin: "It was obviously my eldest cousin's wife who made my great-aunt faint. My eldest cousin's mother-in-law is too partial."

Just as Cao Lanxin was about to tell her to stop talking nonsense, she felt a sharp glare directed at them.

She turned her head and saw her cousin's eyes, as cold as December, sweeping towards her from a distance of ten steps. Fear suddenly rose in her heart.

Could it be that my cousin heard what Lanzhi said?

She warned in a low voice: "Don't talk nonsense, my aunt has her own considerations. This matter is unusual and may not be related to my wife."

As soon as he finished speaking, he disappeared from sight with an extremely oppressive look.

My cousin has such sharp ears!

From now on, don’t speak in front of him if you can, otherwise he will hear all your secrets.

Yuan Wanru looked at the man standing in front of her and felt at peace.

Although she is not afraid of facing questions and accusations from others, it is a very heartwarming feeling to have someone who stands up for you without hesitation to defend against attacks from others.

However, Lu Jiangnian was right. The court doctor was not so incompetent that he couldn't even take a pulse.

Then why is Madam Lu in a coma?

It seems that she needs to find an opportunity to see the old lady.
