"Cough, cough … …" At this time, the old woman was drinking the medicine while coughing uncomfortably.
Her coughing sound was like the sound of a bee, making Yun Ruoyue's heart ache.
Fung, who was at the side, said: "Princess Consort, I just heard the servants of the Jiang Residence say that Old Madame Jiang's body is not well and has been recuperating here. Do you think she is coughing?"
"Old Madame Jiang? Fung, let's go take a look. "Yun Ruoyue was surprised.
She and Chu Xuanchen came to the Jiang Residence as guests, so they should pay a visit to this Old Madame.
Soon, Yun Ruoyue led Fung and Xiao Die into the side room.
"You are?" The maidservant was surprised when she saw Yun Ruoyue and the others come in.
Fung hurriedly said: "May I ask if this is the Old Madame of the Jiang Residence? This is our family's The Princess of Li. She came to pay a visit to Old Madame. "
When the old woman heard this, she hurriedly sat up in fear: "So it is The Princess of Li. This old woman pays respect to Princess Consort."
She knew that The Emperor of Li and his wife came to visit.
She didn't expect that this honorable Princess Consort would come to visit her, making her feel flattered.
"Old Madame, you don't need to be so courteous." Yun Ruoyue hurriedly went forward and supported Old Madame Jiang: "Just now, I heard that Old Madame was coughing very badly outside. Where is Old Madame feeling unwell?"
"This old woman coughs blood all year round. My nose and gums also bleed all the time. I also have blood in my urine and feces. This illness has troubled me for more than a year. I don't know what illness it is. Those doctors who came to see me all said that this is a difficult illness. They also said that I might not survive this winter. Cough, cough … … "Old Madame Jiang said and coughed violently for a while.
She hurriedly covered her mouth with a handkerchief. When she finished coughing, the white handkerchief was already dyed red with blood.
Yun Ruoyue was startled.
She hurriedly observed the old madam and found that the old madam's skin was very pale. She looked tired and very thin. It was a symptom of malnutrition.
She swept her gaze over the table to the side and discovered that there were two plates of leftover pickles and porridge on the table. She hurriedly asked Old Madame Jiang, "Madame, may I ask if these pickles and porridge are your food?"
The maidservant beside her quickly replied, "Yes, Princess Consort. Because our master's salary is often docked by the prefectural magistrate, there isn't much money in the mansion. In order to save money, Old Madame ate plain porridge and pickles for every meal. Last year, the Old Madame could have a bowl of porridge and a plate of pickles for every meal. But after she fell seriously ill this year, her appetite has decreased and she can't even drink half a bowl of porridge. "
Yun Ruoyue was shocked when she heard this.
She didn't expect that a provincial governor would be so poor.
It was no wonder that Jiang Muyu's clothes had been washed until they were white, but he was still wearing them. It turned out that the magistrate of Jiang District had docked Jiang Ning's salary.
She said somewhat angrily, "What right does the Jiangzhou Prefect have to deduct Lord Jiang's salary? Could it be that Lord Jiang can't respond to the higher-ups? "
Old Madame Jiang sighed, "They are all jackals of the same tribe. They are all loyal and courageous disciples. It's useless to respond."
Yun Ruoyue was startled. Su Ming?
These people were all Su Ming's people. Su Ming also listened to the Emperor. Could it be that the Emperor tacitly allowed them to treat Jiang Ning this way?
If that was the case, responding was indeed useless. Jiang Ning could only suffer in silence.
She hurriedly examined the old madam and said, "Old Madame, I know what illness you are suffering from. I can treat your illness."
"Really? Does Princess Consort have medical skills? "Old Madame Jiang stared at Yun Ruoyue in disbelief.
