A mile away, Zhou Yao opened her eyes slightly as she was running on a bullock cart. However, her face was still pale due to the grief just now, which made people feel distressed just looking at her.
"Miss, what are you doing?" The maid who followed her cried softly. Behind her in the bullock cart were the servants of the Shao Mansion in case she needed to follow.
In front of and behind the bullock cart, there was a guard on horseback.
Even if she is a maid, she has to say that the friendship between her young lady and the late Mr. Shao, the friendship between Mr. Shao and her, and the kindness of the entire Shao family are extremely rare.
Mr. Shao is not dead, what a wonderful marriage this is!
Since they were childhood sweethearts, the two families have been close family friends. The future husband-in-law will be talented, handsome and affectionate. There will be no problems between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and there will be no conflicts between sisters-in-law. Everyone in the Shao family has been familiar with the young lady for a long time. As long as they marry, it will be obvious. Yes, you will be able to go smoothly and happily.
Unfortunately, most of the tragedies in this world involve destroying beautiful things for people to see.
After receiving the news yesterday, the master and his wife were also struck by lightning. When they heard that the Shao family had withdrawn from the marriage, they even sighed: "My family has been friends with us for thirty years, and it is not in vain."
Although I was embarrassed, I still accepted the breakup of the engagement for the sake of my daughter. I wanted to hide it, but the lady happened to hear it. The master and his wife were afraid that the lady would not be able to think about it, so they sent themselves to guard it.
It was because she couldn't bear it. When the young lady almost knelt down to beg, she finally risked her life and took the young lady to see Mr. Shao for the last time.
However, the young lady was so crazy that she cried in public and even vomited blood. How should she explain herself when she goes back?
The maid, a bystander, felt sad. Now she was trying to persuade her, but she didn't know how she could persuade him when encountering such a thing.
How can you think about it?
Just seeing the lady like this, the maid regretted it.
"If I had known that you were so upset, miss, I shouldn't have taken you out and sneaked out."
It is not good to vomit blood, and it is even worse to cry in the coffin. This will leave a deep mark on the person, and I am afraid that it will hinder marriage in the future.
"This is none of your business." Zhou Yao fluttered her eyelashes slightly and said with a pale expression, "I insisted on coming. If I don't come to greet Mori Lang when he returns, I will feel uneasy."
"I had no intention of crying in the coffin."
"Don't I understand that the hearts of Senlang, the hearts of uncles and aunts of the Shao family, and even the hearts of my parents are all thinking about me wholeheartedly." Zhou Yao smiled miserably and said melancholy: "I have made up my mind. Just one look, just one look.”
"I don't want to be able to help myself and bring trouble to the Shao family and the Zhou family."
"Miss, bah bah bah! Don't say such things!" the maid said anxiously. Seeing her lowering her head and looking at the snowy light outside the window, she looked as plain as spring plums blooming on snow, as clean as autumn chrysanthemums with frost, and she felt anxious and regretful. , speechless.
"Moreover, mother also knows that you brought me out. Otherwise, how could you and I make the ox cart move in the mansion and reach the pier smoothly? How could we let the people in the mansion move with just your face and mine?" adventure?"
Her parents loved her and were initially afraid that she would commit suicide. However, seeing that she was in great pain, they finally let go.
The maid didn't believe it, but at this moment, the ox cart suddenly slowed down.
"It's the housekeeper of the Zhou Mansion, waiting at the roadside with the doctor." The guard outside the oxcart was surprised.
The maid finally believed it: "The master and his wife really let him go before."
Otherwise, there wouldn't be people on guard so close to the pier, ready at any time, even the doctor is ready.
Zhou Yao half-closed her eyes and stopped talking.
How lucky am I to be born in this family, but I was born with insufficient temperament, and I am afraid that my hair will end in vain again. What should I do in return?
She couldn't hold it on any longer, and gradually fell asleep. No one saw that the handkerchief she was holding tightly was stained with blood, and a strand of something gradually penetrated along her palm and seeped into her body.
When Zhou Yao woke up, she found that she was lying on the bed in the boudoir. The gauze curtain was raised high, and she was covered with a soft quilt. There was a warm fragrance in the room, and there was a vague figure moving not far away.
"Miss, are you awake?" The maid slowly opened her eyes and stared at her movements, and immediately screamed in surprise.
People in the house gathered around in surprise.
Then, people outside also found out.
In the outer hall of the boudoir, a pretty woman who resembled Zhou Yao was listening to the doctor stroking his beard and talking about it. They all said that long-term illness can make a doctor. The patient's family has been around for a long time, so they can understand to a certain extent. Some more.
"Madam, the young lady is awake!" At this moment, a maid ran out and said anxiously to Zhou's mother.
Mother Zhou stood up immediately.
"Madam, Miss's illness is caused by congenital deficiencies and heart disease. I've written a prescription that can relieve depression to some extent, but it treats the symptoms but not the root cause. Heart diseases require heart medicine." After the doctor finished speaking, he gave the prescription Stay and resign knowingly.
Mother Zhou watched him leave and sighed: "Why don't I know this? How easy is it?"
"By the way, now that the lady is awake, go ahead and tell the master."
"Yes, ma'am."
At this time, Zhou's father was drinking tea in the main hall in front. It was clearly Junshan Silver Needle, a tribute tea given by the emperor, but it tasted completely different from usual when he drank it. It had no taste at all.
At this time, I saw a woman walking quickly from outside the hall, and I immediately stood up subconsciously.
"But your lady is awake?"
The mother-in-law immediately bowed: "Go back to the master, the young lady has just woken up. Madam asked the old slave to tell you, so as not to worry."
When she was about to say something more, this gentleman, who was a third-rank minister of Guanglu Temple and a bachelor of Jixian Academy, passed by her like a gust of wind and walked quickly towards the backyard.
Along the way, Zhou's father kept replaying the scene when his daughter was sent back in his mind.
The already frail daughter was sent back half-conscious. She woke up on the way and fell into a coma again when she got home.
How can he feel at ease in this situation?
But as a father, his old wife is guarding his daughter's yard, so it's not good to stay there all the time to avoid being gossiped about. After all, his daughter is older and it's his bedroom, so it's awkward to stay there.
But sitting in front and waiting alone didn't feel any better. After hearing the news that my daughter had woken up, I naturally didn't want to delay for a moment.
In my heart, I wanted to ride on the Hot Wheels, but I had to maintain the majesty of the master. When I got to the courtyard behind, I deliberately slowed down my pace again.
"You go in and take a look first." The old wife saw him coming and said immediately. After hearing this, Zhou's father directly opened the curtain and went inside.
"Master." When several maids saw the master coming in, they all saluted.
Mr. Zhou was not in the mood to pay attention to them at this time. With a wave of his hand, they stepped aside.
Zhou Yao was lying on the Babu bed at the moment, but he could also see Xing Xing, because when he took a few steps closer, he saw the tears silently flowing from the corners of his daughter's eyes.
It's really uncomfortable to be a father.
But his daughter was older. If it hadn't been for this accident, she would have gotten married this year. No matter how anxious Mr. Zhou was, he did not dare to say harsh words to his daughter. He glanced at her and silently withdrew.
