The Reborn Wife is Farming

Chapter 608: Letting Her Go

Editor: Atlas Studios

Fan Siwen sat down in a chair and pointed at the door. “Get out. Get out.”

Mu Yangling flicked her sleeves and said, “Even if you don’t ask me to leave, I’m about to do so anyway. It’s just that I have to get these words out of my ’ chest.”

Fan Siwen stared at her sinisterly and said, “Who do you think you are? Even Prince Rong doesn’ t dare to speak to me like that.”

“Prince Rong doesn’t dare to because he still regards you as his uncle. Because he grew up in the Fan Residence, he values this relationship. Cousin Zijin doesn’t say these things to you because he still cares about the relationship between father-and-son and doesn’t want to fall out with you completely. Cousin-in-law doesn’t say it because she’s your daughter-in-law and you’re her father-in-law. On the other hand, I dare to say it because not only am I the Princess Consort, but I’ve also been friends with Cousin Zijin since we were young.”

Mu Yangling turned around and said, “Seeing how quickly you recovered from your illness, I’m sure Cousin-in-law will have an even more speedy recovery since she’s still young. I’ll go fetch her and set off now.”

Fan Siwen clenched his fists. As soon as Mu Yangling opened the door, the butler and the maidservant stopped her outside and looked at Fan Siwen helplessly.

Mu Yangling tilted her head slightly to look at Fan Siwen and asked, “Uncle, are you still planning to stop me?”

Fan Siwen’s expression changed a few times. If he continued to stop Mu Yangling after what she said, it would confirm the crime of sowing discord between the legitimate son and the legitimate grandson. Fan Siwen was not Qi Feng, so how could he leave such an impression in the eyes of others?

He closed his eyes and waved for the butler to let her go.

With an icy expression, Mu Yangling rushed straight to Little Madam Xia’s guarded courtyard. Mu Yangling glanced at the butler coldly. Sweating profusely, the butler went forward and waved for everyone to leave. Then, he took out a key and opened the courtyard door.

When Mu Yangling pushed the door open and entered, the gentle-mannered Little Madam Xia was sitting on the couch in a daze, wiping her tears. Seeing Mu Yangling enter, it was as if she had seen her savior. She couldn’t help but hug her and cry. With a slightly softened expression, Mu Yangling patted her back and said, “Cousin-in-law, Uncle has already agreed to let you come with us. Packyour things and we’ll set off now.”

Little Madam Xia nodded repeatedly and quickly turned around to instruct the wet nurse to bring her luggage.

They were already prepared, but Fan Siwen suddenly detained them in the residence this morning, so they couldn’t go out.

Before seeing Mu Yangling, Little Madam Xia had given up all hopes of leaving. After all, in her opinion, since her in-laws did not want her to go to her husband’s place, she should stay obediently. The one who really made her angry was the concubine her in-laws had prepared for Fan Zijin. Although she had a soft personality, she was not stupid and knew the dangers of having the eldest son be born from a concubine. Moreover, that was a Virtuous Concubine O. Yet, though her heart was burning with anxiety, there was nothing she could do.

Hence, at this moment, she treated Mu Yangling as her life-saving straw. Since Fan Siwen had agreed to let her leave, he naturally wouldn’t detain the carriages anymore. Hence, the carriages that Little Madam Xia had gotten someone to pack up left the residence one after another. Mu Yangling asked Little Madam Xia to sit in the same carriage as her.

Before they got into the carriage though, a person rushed out of the residence to get a doctor. And how did Mu Yangling know about it?

Because the other party shouted, “Move! Move! Hurry up and get a doctor! Hurry up and get a doctor…”

Mu Yang was so furious that she snatched the coachman’s whip from the side. With a swing of the whip, she threw the person off the horse. The Qi family’s guards immediately went forward to take him away.

Mu Yangling laughed. “I have an imperial physician here. There’s no need to look for a doctor from afar.” Mu Yangling asked Imperial Physician Wang to treat Fan Siwen.

When Little Madam Xia hesitated, Mu Yangling patted her hand and said, “Let’s go. Since we’re already delayed anyway, it’s fine even if we delay a little longer. We’ll leave after seeing Uncle.”

Fan Siwen was lying on the bed with his eyes closed. Madam Xia was seated beside him and frowned slightly when she saw Mu Yangling enter.

Fan Siwen opened his eyes, surprised to see Mu Yangling and the others return. Anger surged in his chest as he asked, “Your Highness, why are you here?” Mu Yangling gestured for Imperial Physician Wang to come forward. “Earlier, an impetuous servant shouted that Uncle is seriously ill and wants to call a doctor, so I brought Imperial Physician Wang over to take a look.”

Fan Siwen was slightly surprised. Then, he glared at Madam Liu, who was standing at the side serving him. Madam Xia’s gaze also shot towards Madam Liu like a cold blade.

Madam Liu stood with her head lowered, as if she didn’t see their gazes.

Imperial Physician Wang stroked his beard and said, “Old Master Fan is just having a mild indigestion and is otherwise fine. I’ll write two optional sets of prescriptions for you. You’ll be fine after walking around more.”

Fan Siwen’s face twitched. Indigestion?

He had not eaten a single grain of rice today. How could he be suffering from indigestion?

Couldn’t that doctor put slightly more effort into crafting the lie?

Fan Siwen hopelessly lay on the bed with his eyes closed. Madam Xia hurriedly said, “Thank you, Imperial Physician Wang. I’ll definitely supervise and get Master to walk around more later.”

Imperial Physician Wang smiled and nodded, then put away his things and stood at the side.

Mu Yangling gestured for Little Madam Xia to go forward. She went forward and knelt down, then kowtowed to Fan Siwen and Madam Xia and said, “Forgive me for being unable to serve my in-laws while I’m away…”

At the thought of how difficult it was to leave this time, Little Madam Xia couldn’t help but cry. In the eyes of others, she looked very guilty and uneasy. Having just fallen out with Fan Siwen, Mu Yangling really couldn’t squeeze out a smile. Hence, she simply stood at the side and watched them go through the formalities before setting off.

Mu Yangling looked at Madam Xia. “Aunt, do you have things to say to Cousin?”

Sighing, Madam Xia said, “Tell Zijin that no matter what, we’re his parents and he’s our son. We definitely won’t harm him.”

“I’ll pass the message along to him.” With that, she bowed and left with Little Madam Xia.

This time, they climbed into the carriage without any hiccups. When they reached the city gate, they were escorted by the imperial guards sent by the Emperor. However, because they had wasted a lot of time at the Fan Residence, it was noon by the time they left the city. Mu Yangling had no choice but to ask’ them to stop and start preparing lunch. Other than Little Bear’s food, the others ate rations to save time.

The cook made noodles for Little Bear to eat while Mu Yangling walked to the side. Imperial Physician Wang hurriedly followed and cupped his hands. He said in a low voice, “Your Highness, Old Master Fan’s heart was affected due to a surge of anger and he needs to recuperate. He’s not young anymore. If a similar episode were to happen a few more times, I’m afraid it will affect his lifespan.”

Mu Yangling’s expression changed slightly. Surely it wasn’t so serious?

She had merely wanted to speak up for Fan Zijin, to address all the grievances he had suffered. Since when did she become so formidable? Not only could she make people vomit blood, but she could also affect their lifespan?

Seeing her expression change, Imperial Physician Wang hurriedly explained, Your Highness, don’t worry. It has to happen several more times in order to affect his lifespan…”

The hidden meaning was that now that she had already left the capital, she couldn’t anger Fan Siwen anymore. So, if anything happened to him later, it would have nothing to do with her.

Moreover, from Imperial Physician Wang’s point of view, Fan Siwen was a person prone to anger anyway. If such a person was angered a few more times, he would easily suffer a stroke. Wouldn’t a stroke affect his lifespan?

However, he couldn’t articulate the causes too explicitly.

“Then the prescription you prescribed previously…”

It addresses his symptoms, clearing the internal heat in his heart. If he walks more often in addition to taking the prescription, his mind will naturally calm down. In the end, it takes will to dissipate internal heat and medicine alone has little effect. As the saying goes, when it comes to heart ailments, the root of the problem has to be first addressed.”
