Chapter 74
Everyone in the Zheng family became nervous, worried that he would really believe what Chang Wu said, took the medicine, and followed him to Chang's house.
Zheng Heng stared at Chang Wu, stared at the medicine in his hand, and asked in a cold voice, "It's you? Right?"
Others didn't understand what he meant, but when Chang Wu heard it, he was slightly surprised, and then laughed: "Yes, I spent a lot of time for you, but how would you know? The doctor in this city shouldn't be able to find out." He admitted frankly, because he knew that the Zheng family couldn't help him.
In the room, Tangning was quite surprised when she heard the words outside. Seeing Madam Zheng beside her, she was holding her handkerchief tightly, staring out of breath, and she couldn't help but call out to her.
"Mrs. Zheng, are you alright?"
"I'm fine, I just..."
Madam Zheng took a deep breath and turned to look at Tangning with a wry smile, "Little Master, to tell you the truth, since my master fell, I have been guarding my clan, I think they will definitely want to take advantage of my house. The master fell, and grabbing things from our long house will grab Heng’er’s position as the head of the family. The doctor said that he should prepare for the funeral, and everyone in the family came to guard it. I thought, they must be looking forward to my master. Die, they bully us orphans and widows, but..."
She wiped the corners of her eyes lightly, with shame in her eyes, and said, "But I didn't expect that my master was poisoned, and I didn't expect that when Chang Wu broke into the mansion to trouble Heng'er, the clan would protect him and stand up for him. With him, I, I feel really ashamed that I doubted them like that..."
"Madam doesn't have to blame herself, because what Madam said happens in many families."
Tangning smiled and said, "People in this world are greedy for money and power, and rich families still have calculations and disputes, not to mention families like yours. However, after this incident, Madam, you can also see the unity of the clan, at least, it happened to others. Family matters did not appear in your home."
She paused, looked outside, and asked again, "Who is this Chang Wu? How could he target Young Master Ling?"
"He is the fifth son of the Chang family, one of the eight major families in Yancheng, so he is called the fifth master of Chang. When Lu Yu kidnapped a 14- or 15-year-old boy, he rescued the boy and fought with Chang Wu. Since then, Chang Wu has come to his door every now and then."
Speaking of this, she was full of helplessness and anger: "Such a shameless person, even ignoring the reputation of his Chang family, has always been lawless and annoyed everyone in Yancheng, but no one can do anything to him."
Hearing this, Tangning nodded, "I see."
At this time, a maid came in quietly, put something on the table, and said, "Madam, the silver needle has been brought, and the medicine has been boiled in the kitchen."
"Okay." Madam Zheng looked at Tangning and asked, "Little Master, can you see if this silver needle can be used? It's in our medicine store. If it can't be used, I'll ask someone to buy it outside."
Tangning opened it, looked at it, and nodded, "It's alright, that's all." After speaking, she took the silver needle to the bedside and said, "Madam, I'll help Master Zheng detoxify first, although I can't clear the body of the poison at once. Poison, but it can wake him up."
