The next day, Ouyang Zhi did not bring Nee Lin or Ouyang Ke along. It seemed that Nee Lin was determined to pretend to be ill to the end. Also, if she changed her original intentions with some words from Ouyang Zhi, then she wouldn't be that scheming and calculating Marquis' Shu daughter.

Ouyang Nuan said extremely worriedly, "Yesterday, granddaughter went to pay respects to mother. Granddaughter heard that mother was so sick she could not get out of bed. Father invited two doctors over and I couldn't even get inside."

Nee Li coldly smiled. She grabbed Ouyang Nuan's hand and said, "Since it's like that, then let's go and take a look." She thought a bit and said to Zhang Mama, "Invite Doctor w.a.n.g to come."

Ouyang Nuan lowered her eyes and hid her slight smile. "Grandmother is too kind."

The layout of the Furui courtyard was large and grand. The furnis.h.i.+ngs were luxurious and elegant. Each decoration was laid exquisitely, exuding the dignity and style of an aristocratic family.

With the help of Ouyang Nuan, Nee Li sat down in the host seat. Ouyang Zhi paid his respects to his mother. "Your son is not filial, making mother toil."

Nee Li coldly smiled. There was no such thing in the world where the mother-in-law had to visit a sick daughter-in-law. But she wanted to clearly see with her own eyes how good Nee Lin's acting skills were. "What did the doctor say? If it's contagious, it's better to block off this courtyard. Even Ke'er [suffix to denote familiarity] needs to be separated from her mother in case her illness worsens."

Ouyang Zhi was startled. "The doctor didn't say it was contagious."

Nee Li slapped the table. "If it's not contagious, then why did even Ke'er not come to pay her respects?! What kind of doctor did you invite? How did he diagnose it? If this is spread out, it'll be a joke!"

Ouyang Zhi's face was a bit embarra.s.sed. Cold sweat could be seen on his forehead. Ouyang Nuan mildly said, "Don't worry, father. Grandmother is just worried about mother's condition. Doctor w.a.n.g has superb medical skills. Let him take a look."

It could be said that Doctor w.a.n.g was the doctor of the Ouyang family for generations. He was currently Laotaitai's exclusive doctor. It could be seen how angry Nee Li was to invite him over.

Ouyang Zhi reacted like he received amnesty. He immediately took the white-haired Doctor w.a.n.g to examine Nee Lin. The doctor was indeed an expert. He took her pulse and prescribed a prescription in one go. But before he left, he said to the cold-faced Nee Li, "Ouyang furen is normally healthy. She encountered something unhappy and let anger attack her heart. That's why she's sick. It's better to persuade her to relax her mind."
