Chapter 595 The old woman came in a hurry
Prince Yu's Mansion
On the tenth day after An An was lost, Luo Lan had cried until she had no tears left, and Leng Yu was in a bad mood.
The number of patients in Huichun Hall continued to increase. Although Luo Lan missed An An, he could not ignore those patients. Therefore, during the day, Luo Lan was like a top without emotion, spinning around in the hospital.
When she returned home at night, she was like a deflated balloon, her whole body was limp and weak.
Fortunately, Luo Xue goes to the medical clinic every day to help, which also takes a lot of burden from Luo Lan.
"Princess, that old woman is here again."
A Cai came to report in a hurry. Luo Lan, who was prescribing medicine for the patient, asked without raising his head:
"Which old woman?"
"The last time I went to the mansion, I was told that she was the mother of the warehouse manager in the military camp. She knelt at the door of the Huichun Hall and said that if you didn't see her, she wouldn't get up."
Hearing this, a dim light flashed through Luo Lan's eyes. What she hated the most was that others could not stand up and threaten her.
She immediately put down the pen in her hand and handed the written prescription to the man opposite.
"Follow this prescription and take the medicine for three days. If it doesn't work, bring the patient to see me."
The man took the prescription and went to grab the medicine with great gratitude. Then Luo Lan said to A Cai:
"Let her come in! How unbecoming is it to be seen kneeling at the door?"
After A Cai nodded, he turned around and went out.
After a while, an unkempt old woman appeared in front of Luo Lan. This old woman looked much older than before.
When she came to Luo Lan, she couldn't help but knelt down on her knees,
"Princess Yu, you are kind-hearted. Please help the civilian women to beg Prince Yu to let him be merciful and let my son go. I am willing to take the blame for him, or I can sell my property and repay the losses to the military camp. As long as I don't
I can kill him no matter what, please have mercy on me."
The old woman's words caused a flash of surprise in Luo Lan's eyes. She had been busy looking for An An and the medical center these days, and she forgot to mention this matter to Leng Yu.
She motioned to Ah Cai to help her up, pointing to the stool in front of her,
"If you have something to say, sit down and talk."
The old woman hurriedly waved her hands and shook her head.
"You can't sit, you can't sit. If you sit for a while longer, my son's life will be gone."
Luo Lan looked at her in surprise,
"how do I say this?"
The old woman then told the story of the incident with tears and runny noses.
It turned out that her son Lao Wu admitted to stealing cloth, medicinal materials and food from the military camp. Leng Yu was furious about this and demanded military punishment to show his military power.
At noon today, it was the day of execution. After Lao Wu's mother learned the news, she ran to Luo Lan crying and begging for mercy. She knew that Prince Yu listened to Princess Yu the most and only asked to be moved. She
My son's life can be saved.
"Princess Yu, please beg for mercy for my son. He really did it for a reason. Even if he is at fault, it is still my fault. I am willing to bear the responsibility for him. Please beg for mercy for Prince Yu.
"
Luo Lan looked at the poor mother and suddenly thought of An An.
She must be as worried about her son as she is worried about An An.
She shouldn't have interfered with the affairs in the military camp, but looking at the old woman in front of her, Luo Lan suddenly felt a little unbearable.
Seeing her hesitation, the old woman continued to plead:
"Princess Yu, I know you are in trouble, but I can't find anyone to help me. I thought about dying with my son, but if I die, what will happen to my three-year-old grandson at home?"
Three-year-old grandson?
Luo Lan frowned and looked at her in surprise,
"You said you have a grandson?"
The old woman nodded vigorously,
"Well, I have been sick over the years, and my grandson has often fallen ill after he was born. The little money my son earned has been used to treat our mother and daughter. My daughter-in-law has no hope of living her life now that her family is in ruins.
, last year, ran away with a salesman..."
"Then where is your grandson now?"
The old woman raised her sleeves, wiped the tears on her face, and said with choked sobs:
"he is at home……"
at home?
A three-year-old child at home alone?
Luo Lan suddenly doubted whether what the old woman said was true or false.
"You left him alone at home? What if he runs out? He is only three years old."
"Will not."
The old woman shook her head vigorously,
"He is sick and can't escape..."
Seeing the old woman's evasive eyes, Luo Lan became more and more suspicious of her words.
In order to verify whether what she said was true or false, Luo Lan simply said to her:
"In this case, then take your three-year-old grandson with you to the military camp and see if Prince Yu can be accommodating."
The old woman seemed to still have some doubts, but seeing that Luo Lan had already stood up, she also stood on the ground, lowered her head and whispered to Luo Lan:
"Then... later, don't scare you."
How could she be afraid of a three-year-old child? This old woman is really strange.
Before leaving the Huichun Hall, Luo Lan explained to Luo Xue again that this time the people in the capital collectively had diarrhea and showed several different symptoms.
She has already prescribed several prescriptions for treating diarrhea in advance. When the patient comes, Luo Xue can take the medicine according to the patient's symptoms.
After making arrangements for the Huichun Hall, she took A Cai, A Hong, and the old woman and headed straight for her home under the guidance of the old woman.
Sitting in the carriage, Luo Lan said nothing. The old woman folded her hands in her sleeves, lowered her head, and looked at the ground.
She tried to talk to Luo Lan several times, but when she saw her squinting and dozing off, she didn't dare to speak out.
A Cai and A Hong, who were driving the carriage in front, also looked worried. The disappearance of An An in the past few days has made the entire Yuwang Palace worried. The prince and princess were also depressed because of this. The atmosphere of the entire Yuwang Palace during this period
They all became a little depressed, and everyone was looking forward to An An coming back soon.
But so many days have passed, and there is no news about An An. A Cai, who has always been talkative and laughing, has become taciturn.
"Princess, we're here."
After about a quarter of an hour, the carriage slowly stopped. A Hong came to lift the curtain door of the car. The old woman got out of the car first. Luo Lan also got out of the car with A Hong's help.
In front of me is an alley in Beijing. Although the houses here are not too shabby, the location is relatively remote.
The old woman pointed to a peeling paint door in front of her and said timidly:
"Princess, this is the home of a common woman."
Luo Lan frowned and nodded to her, "Lead the way."
She wanted to see where the so-called three-year-old child she mentioned was.
The old woman opened the door first, and then welcomed Luo Lan and Ah Cai Ah Hong in.
As soon as they entered the yard, there was a whimpering sound in the house. The old woman hurriedly lowered her head and said:
"Princess, please come inside."
Luo Lan raised his feet and was about to step forward when A Cai hurriedly walked to the door first.
The noise coming from the room was a bit weird, and she didn't want the princess to take risks.
A Cai opened the door and took a look inside. The old woman hurriedly entered the door first.
