Chapter 1885
Wei Peng was very smart and chatted with Ling Yu while playing chess.
It may have been a long time since anyone had spoken to him properly. Wei Peng looked at his mature look and revealed the innocence of a child, and inadvertently told Ling Yu about his family affairs.
Ling Yu then learned that Wei Peng was only two years old, and General Wei had left mother and son behind and was promoted to the capital of the gods.
After General Wei left, whether intentionally or unintentionally, the local magistrate kicked Mrs. Wei and her son out of the general's residence on the pretext that they wanted to move in.
Mrs. Wei bought a small house with her dowry and raised Wei Peng by herself.
For so many years, General Wei treated Mrs. Wei as dead and never sent a letter back, let alone paid alimony.
Mrs. Wei's father died early, and her mother died two years ago. She left her sister Shen Pingping, who was several years younger, in the care of Mrs. Wei.
Shen Pingping has been living with Mrs. Wei and her son for many years. Although she is from a humble background, this girl has relied on Mrs. Wei's favor to develop the character of a young lady, and she often beats and scolds several maids.
Last year, when Shen Pingping got married, Mrs. Wei originally wanted to find a match for her, but because of Shen Pingping's high standards and her violent personality, not many young men dared to marry her.
This time, Mrs. Wei was almost blind. She was worried that she would not be able to take care of her sister and Wei Peng, so she sold her property and went to the capital of God to find her husband.
Ling Yu felt worried for Mrs. Wei when she heard this. How could an orphan and a widowed mother be the rival of Princess Qingqing?
If this goes wrong, both mother and son will be buried in the divine capital.
As the ship continued its journey, Ling Yu checked Mrs. Wei's pulse once a day, and then adjusted the prescription according to her condition of taking medicine.
The second lady, Shen Pingping, got Ling Yu's ointment and no longer became seasick, so she appeared outside the next day.
Ling Yu saw that Shen Pingping looked quite pretty.
But just like Wei Peng said, she looked like a condescending young lady, and when she saw Ling Yu and Wan Shitong, she also looked arrogant and dismissive.
She didn't want to talk to Ling Yu, and Ling Yu didn't bother to talk to her.
Wei Peng felt that he and Ling Yu were very compatible, so he came down every day to play chess and chat with Ling Yu.
Every time Ling Yu saw him, she remembered the child she had killed by Xiao Lintian, and unknowingly she loved Wei Peng more.
In addition to playing chess, Ling Yu also taught him how to identify medicinal materials and explain their pharmacology. Ling Yu even told him about some harmful medicines used in the home.
Ling Yu was worried that Wei Peng's mother and son would go to General Wei's house and be plotted by Princess Qingqing, so she took precautions to let Wei Peng know about it.
The day after Ling Yu taught Wei Peng the antidote, Mrs. Wei came to the door. This time she didn't bring her maid, and said with a straight face when she entered.
"Doctor Yu, you can leave when the ship docks next time! My eyes don't need your treatment anymore!"
Ling Yu was stunned for a moment, then reacted and said calmly: "Mrs. Wei drove us away because I taught Wei Peng the antidote? Are you worried that I led Wei Peng astray?"
Mrs. Wei snorted coldly and said mockingly: "You are self-aware!"
Ling Yu asked back: "Mrs. Wei, don't get angry in a hurry. Think about it carefully, why should I teach Wei Peng the antidote?"
"I have been getting along with Wei Peng these days, and to be fair, I treat him as my child and teach him! Didn't Mrs. Wei notice the changes in Wei Peng?"
Mrs. Wei was silent, and her son understood it by himself.
Wei Peng has become very silent and doesn't talk much since he knew he was going to the capital city to find his father.
