While listening to Huan'er's speech, Zhou Yiming tried hard to wake up Mrs. Zhou, but he had tried many first aid methods, but to no avail. Mrs. Zhou remained unconscious, as if she had suffered a huge blow.
"It was already late at night," Huan'er continued while helping Yi Ming support Mrs. Zhou. "The young lady wanted to go find you, but the master stopped me. The master was afraid that it would be dark outside and it would be unsafe. The young lady is also a woman's family. , I was worried about going out, so I called a few servants and asked them to go outside to find you.
As a result, these people went out to search for a long time and found nothing, not even any news from you.
Now the master and his wife are completely anxious, and the young mistress is even more anxious. She insists on going out to find you. I have no choice but to agree.
After the young mistress went out, the master sent out all the remaining servants to find you. Then he gathered his strength and went out to find you with one of his servants.
I was left at home to take care of my wife.
Madam cried for half the night last night. She finally fell asleep for a while in the morning. She woke up crying again just now. It must be that you are not here.
I'm here to try to persuade her. I've just finished trying to persuade her, but you came in again and shocked her. "
After listening to Huan'er's story, Yi Ming felt regretful. He thought to himself that even if he was busy with official duties last night, he would at least send a message to his family. This is good, he came back safe and sound, and his family was so chicken. The dog is jumping around, my mother is unconscious here, and my father and his wife are running around looking for me outside. They may not even have a sip of water now.
When he thought about how his family was suffering for him, Zhou Yiming felt like a knife was twisting his heart. He kept cursing in his heart that he was not a human being. He had a very smart mind, so why was there one less string in this kind of thing? ?
In the end, which one is more important, glory, promotion and wealth, or family members? Is this even necessary to ask?
The maid Huan'er was Lin Ajiao's dowry maid when she got married. She had not been in the Zhou family for a long time, but she was smart and considerate. She quickly got along with the former servants of the Zhou family and was deeply loved by her master.
This little girl is as big as a brat. Although she is only eleven or twelve years old, she has a big heart. Ever since she came to Zhou's house with her young lady, she has been very envious when she saw her uncle and young lady being extremely affectionate.
When she was in the Lin family, everyone in the Lin family said that Yi Ming was a loser. She grew up in this environment and was influenced by it. Unconsciously, she also felt that Yi Ming was a toad and not worthy of her own lady.
But when she came to Zhou's house, she realized that she really couldn't believe the rumors. Zhou Yiming was handsome and bookish, and he didn't look like a loser no matter how he looked.
Moreover, since Zhou Yiming solved the case of the missing woman, he has become famous. This not only allows his young lady to feel proud in front of her family, but Huan'er himself has begun to have a good impression of Zhou Ming more or less, so Zhou Yiming disappeared. After that, she was also very worried. She secretly cried several times while carrying people on her back.
Although Huan'er knew that she was just a maid and was not qualified to greet Zhou Ming at all, but when she saw that Zhou Ming had returned home in a state of embarrassment, with wounds all over her body, she still couldn't help but mustered up her courage and asked:
"Master, what happened? Why did you come back now? You still have so many injuries on your body? Are these injuries okay?"
Zhou Yiming's thoughts were all on his mother, and he didn't notice Huan'er's concern at all. He just responded casually: "Don't mention it, a lot of big things happened last night. I also experienced nine deaths and survived ninety-nine and eighty-one." It's difficult to get back with a life.
Thinking about it now, I'm still scared for a while, and I should have sent a message home. In that case, you wouldn't be so anxious! "
Huan'er thought that Yi Ming would not pay attention to her, but what she didn't expect was that Yi Ming kept answering her questions and said so much at once, which made her feel flattered.
"Master, you must have not eaten all night, let me go and make you something!"
"Don't be busy, I'm not hungry! Go find a hot handkerchief and put it on the old lady's forehead." Zhou Ming reached out and touched Madam Zhou's forehead. He found it was a bit hot, so he ordered.
"Yes." Huan'er agreed and happily went to find a handkerchief.
Zhou Yiming stood next to the chair, holding Mrs. Zhou in his arms, taking her pulse and checking her face.
Although Mrs. Zhou was unconscious, she was still crying from the corners of her eyes, which showed that she was still worried about her son in a coma.
Looking at his old mother's old face, Zhou Yiming let out a long sigh and couldn't help but sigh: "As the saying goes, 'When a son travels a thousand miles, the mother is worried.' This is really true. I am already unconscious, but I am still worrying about it. It’s so unfilial of me to worry about myself.”
Soon Huan'er took the hot handkerchief over and handed it to Zhou Ming personally.
Zhou Yiming took the handkerchief in his hand and slowly applied it on Mrs. Zhou's head. When the handkerchief came into contact with Mrs. Zhou's skin, Mrs. Zhou snorted softly and gradually showed signs of waking up.
Zhou Yiming and Huan'er were so nervous that they didn't dare to express their anger. They waited silently, hoping that Mrs. Zhou would wake up soon, but the result made them very disappointed. After that soft hum, Mrs. Zhou still closed her eyes tightly. Unconscious.
Zhou Yiming knew that this was not the solution. If this state continued, his old mother might be in danger, and even if he went to ask a doctor at this time, it might be too late. Even if the doctor could come in time, In today's era, unless they are imperial doctors, ordinary doctors' medical skills are not as good as mine.
Instead of leaving my old mother to those quack doctors, I might as well do it myself.
After making up his mind, he asked Huan'er to support Mrs. Zhou behind her back, and then he stood up, holding the old mother's head with one hand, and slowly pinched the old mother's body with the other hand.
"Master, what are you doing? My wife has already fainted, why are you still pinching her?" Huan'er was very puzzled by Yi Ming's behavior, so she asked.
It was also the first time for Zhou Yiming to use this trick. As for whether it would work or not, he had no idea whether it would work or not, so he was frightened during the process of pinching people.
Hearing Huan'er's question, Zhou Yiming had no time to explain and said, "Stop talking and support the old lady."
"Oh." Although Huan'er was still full of doubts, she didn't dare to ask again.
As the strength of Zhou Ming's hand became stronger and stronger, his thumb embedded more and more parts of the person's body. Suddenly, Mrs. Zhou let out a long breath, and then made a humming sound.
Zhou Yiming and Huan'er were extremely happy. They looked at each other, as if they were telling each other that this trick really works.
"Mom, you finally woke up. You scared my son and me to death." Zhou Ming knelt on the ground, holding his old mother's hand and saying with red eyes.
Huan'er was nearby and quickly said to Mrs. Zhou: "Madam, the young master is back. He is fine. Don't be afraid."
Although she had woken up, Mrs. Zhou was still in a dazed state. After hearing what the two people said, she couldn't believe her ears for the first time. She reluctantly opened her eyes and saw Zhou Ming looking embarrassed. Like, kneeling in front of yourself.
Mrs. Zhou was startled at first and almost fainted again. After she regained her composure, she stood up slightly, squinted her eyes, looked carefully at Zhou Ming's face, then stretched out her hand and groped for a while.
After making sure that there was warmth on Yi Ming's face, Mrs. Zhou was convinced that her son was really back. She wailed aggrievedly: "My son, where have you been? You haven't been home for so long, do you want to kill me?" ah!"
This cry of grievance not only made Zhou Ming's eyes red, but also Huan'er on the side was affected, and he kept wiping away tears.
"Mom, it's all my son's fault. Last night I went to work with the inspector in the yamen. Because the matter was urgent, I didn't have time to send a letter home, which made you worry about me. My son really deserves to die. ."
After saying these words, Zhou Yiming knocked his head heavily on the ground and was unwilling to get up for a long time.
Her only son, who was already in a miserable state, was now kneeling on the ground and unable to move. This made Mrs. Zhou very distressed. Regardless of her weak body, she struggled to get up and tried to help Zhou Ming up, but just now As soon as I stood up, I felt dizzy and almost fell down.
Zhou Yiming and Huan'er quickly supported Mrs. Zhou and slowly helped her to her seat.
Mrs. Zhou had an ominous premonition after seeing Yi Ming not come back last night. She felt that her son might never come back. Thinking of this terrible outcome, she felt sad because if Yi Ming met with an accident, She has no hope for the rest of her life, and although Zhou Yiming and Lin Ajiao are married, they have not given birth to a boy or a girl.
If the worst outcome really happened, wouldn't the Zhou family be doomed?
Thinking of these terrible situations, Mrs. Zhou was heartbroken and began to blame her in-laws in her heart. After all, if Mr. Lin hadn't come forward to ask for this job for Yiming, Yiming would have stayed at home and wouldn't have suffered anything like this. any danger.
Mrs. Zhou has even thought about it. If it is confirmed that something happened to Yi Ming, she will immediately go to the Lin family to have a fight and let them return her son.
Now that she saw her son back in full shape, Mrs. Zhou suddenly threw all her worries away. It was too late to be happy. How could she be willing to watch her son punish herself.
"Just come back," Mrs. Zhou took Zhou Ming's hand and held it tightly, as if she was afraid that if she let go, Zhou Ming would disappear from her eyes. "You didn't see me yesterday, and I couldn't wait for you to come back." Home, your father, your wife, and I are all very anxious. If you come back later, you might not be able to see me as your mother."
Having said this, Mrs. Zhou felt sad again and couldn't help but wipe away her tears.
Huan'er on the side couldn't help being surprised when she saw that Zhou Yiming not only didn't try to persuade him, but was also sad along with him.
