122 The Little Guy's Mother (Part 2)

122 The little guy's mother (Part 2)

"Interstitial pneumonia is not an infectious disease." Bai Min said softly, agreeing to Chen Xiansong to go in,

As soon as I stepped into the door, I smelled a faint smell of medicine. There was no light in the house. Fortunately, the moonlight came in, so Chen Xiansong could see the decorations in the room. Although the Lunxi family had long declined, the lean camel was bigger than a horse. The furniture in the room was very delicate, and any piece was released. Ordinary civilians might not be able to afford it if they didn't eat or drink for several years.

Not far from the folding window, there is a bed, with someone lying on it. The curtains are wide open, and the bright moonlight shines on her face, which allows people to clearly see her appearance.

Chen Xiansong is a literary youth. When he thought, a woman who could give birth to a beautiful girl like Froncis should be a great beauty, and should be a delicate and sick beauty like Lin Daiyu. But when his eyes moved to the head of the bed, he only saw a woman with dry hair, sunken eyes, sallow skin, under her cheeks, and blue and white lips.

Chen Xiansong has read the novel "Dream of Red Mansions", but he has never understood what kind of girls are sick beauty. Although new human women have different personalities, they are all so healthy that they can't even get sick, let alone any sick beauty. He heard that his natural person compatriots filmed the Dream of Red Mansions more than a hundred years ago, but he could not find the source of the film online. It may be that time has passed too long and the source of the film has been extinct.

Just as he was curious about the fat man, Chen Xiansong was also quite curious about the special individuals like "sick beauty". However, there was always a gap between fantasy and reality. He thought he could see it today, but he almost scared himself. Although this description is disrespectful to the patient, under the dizzy white moonlight, the woman on the bed really looks like a female ghost.

Chen Xiansong felt that he was watching a horror movie... If Bai Min hadn't been around, he felt that he would definitely be scared. In contrast, the little guy Froncis sat on the edge of the bed, snuggling comfortably in the woman's arms, and didn't mind at all about his mother's scary appearance.

"Your Excellency, I'm really sorry, I can't get out of bed to greet you." The woman's voice was hoarse and low, with a rather awkward feeling. Her vocal cords were slightly damaged due to years of coughing: "My name is Catherine, the mistress of the Lunche family, and Froncis' mother."

"Chen Xiansong..." Then he pointed to the girl beside him: "This is Xiao Min."

"A soul-thinking person and a sun god servant came to the door together at night." Catherine smiled miserably: "If it were more than ten years ago, when our Lunche family had not yet declined, I would have been very happy. But now, I am very scared. The past ten years of bedtime have made me understand that there is no care for no reason between strangers and strangers."

Catherine's eyes were full of a look of defense. The life after her husband's death flashed in front of her eyes. The servants ran away. After his death, her husband's friends who were as close as brothers began to covet her beauty. After she had been sick for a long time, she turned her mind to her growing daughter.

If it weren't for their Lunshi family that retained a noble title so that the group of people would not dare to do anything, otherwise something would have happened long ago. But recently, Jay said that he had heard the news that many nobles in the city planned to jointly submit to the royal family and the congress hall, preparing to strip the noble titles of Lunshi family of Lunshi family.

Without the title of nobles, their family was just a fresh and tender fish jumping on the chopping boards of others. If it were a few years ago, Catherine would have asked Chen Xiansong and Bai Min for help, but now... at such a critical moment, the two of them came too soon, which made her feel deeply suspicious.

As a mother, she knew her daughter's "potentiality" very well. She had become charming at such a young age and became even more amazing when she grew up. In the past ten years, she has been lying in bed and wondering why the Lunxi family encountered such a thing. Although every time she thought about a problem, her brain would be thrust, she could always come up with some clues after thinking about a problem for a long time.

A few months ago, she suddenly realized that the Lunxi family had been plotted against them. In Qingxi City, there was a force targeting them and forced them to a dead end step by step. And the reason why they did this was definitely related to her daughter, or to the strange pattern behind her daughter.

She had a premonition recently that the moment when the picture was revealed was coming. At this moment, a soul-thinking person and a sun god servant came to her home. She subconsciously drew these two people to the hostile forces. Moreover, she had been sick for more than ten years, and no one knew the reason. This woman, who claimed to be the sun god servant, came, but she only took a few minutes to tell her condition. More importantly, she just realized that this woman named Bai Min, who was unreasonably beautiful, was the maid of the man in front of her... The identity of the sun god servant was so noble that she could be under the mortals. Even a soul-thinking person could not impress a sun god servant. Therefore, she felt that she had seen through the "true faces" of these two people, and naturally became aware of her prevention and felt that her daughter had been deceived.

Chen Xiansong only felt that the other party's attitude seemed a bit strange, but when he thought of a woman lying in bed for more than ten years, suffering from illness and unable to see the future, and was worried about her daughter, it would be normal for her to have some mental or emotional problems over time. Bai Min keenly felt Catherine's hostility towards Chen Xiansong, but the chip evaluated Catherine's threat as "extremely low", so she did not need to enter the prevention and countermeasures procedure.

Seeing that Chen Xiansong did not respond, Catherine continued, "So I want to know what you want from us! What kind of secret is hidden in the pattern behind my daughter? Even if we die, we must let us die clearly."

Having said that, Chen Xiansong finally felt something was wrong. He said the other party and thought about it carefully, and then asked in a uncertain manner: "Madam, have you misunderstood something? We did not come with malicious intentions. You were too confused with some people."

"The Garfield never tells the world its viciousness with words, they only express it with actions." Catherine finished coldly, then another violent cough.

"Mom, the eldest brother is really here to help us." Froncis helped Chen Xiansong to speak nice things.

Unfortunately, Catherine didn't believe it. She gently stroked her daughter's face: "You are still young and don't understand many things. This world is darker and more ruthless than you imagined. It's really incompetent that my mother can't protect you."

"Mom..." Froncis knew that her mother was in poor health, so she never made her angry. After hearing this, she knew that her mother was wrong, but she did not dare to point it out, for fear of affecting her mother's mood and aggravating her condition. In such a tangled mood, the little guy had to give Chen Xiansong apologetic eyes.

Chen Xiansong scratched his head in embarrassment. He had never dealt with such a situation and didn't know what to do. At this time, Bai Min, who was standing aside, suddenly spoke: "She suffers from mild paranoia of being killed. Now Xiaosong, you are useless to say anything. Let her calm herself. After a while, she will probably be able to figure it out by herself."

Chen Xiansong believed in Bai Min's judgment very much. He said goodbye to Catherine politely. When he was in the house, little Frances chased after her, and her expression was quite worried: "Big brother, I'm sorry, I didn't expect her to be mom..."

"It's okay." Chen Xiansong patted the little guy's head: "When will your mother figure it out, let's come again."

Then the two left, Froncis stood at the door and quietly disappeared into the darkness towards Chen Xiansong's background. After a while, she turned around and slowly returned to the room.

Because she was unable to get out of bed for many years and could not walk outdoors, Catherine's vision decreased, but her hearing increased significantly. When Chen Xiansong and Froncis were talking downstairs, she could hear clearly when she lay downstairs. Sick people were not easy to fall asleep at night, and she had been lying in bed for more than ten years, so she was even more difficult to fall asleep.

People who do nothing like to think about it all, and Catherine is the same. In just over a dozen minutes, she endured the pain in her head and thought about a lot of things. Finally, she came in and said slowly: "I remember there are more than ten gold coins at home... tomorrow morning, you can take out ten, go to the mercenary union, and ask about the two people just now. The girl was right just now. I might be too suspicious."

Jay frowned and said, "Madam, if we take out ten gold coins, our meal may not be supported for long."

"Even if there are those ten gold coins, we won't be able to support them for long." Catherine said calmly: "Someone is sucking our flesh and blood bit by bit in the darkness, and now... we don't have much meat left for them. Next, they will swallow us in one bite, and even the bones will not be left."

Jay greeted and exited the room.

After Chen Xiansong returned to the association, he asked Balff to take some mercenaries from the Graystone Village to watch around Froncis' house. He was a little worried that someone would be unfavorable to the little guy. On the afternoon of the third day, Jay, with gray hair, came to the association and asked Chen Xiansong. After a noble-style hustle and bustle, Jay said that Mrs. Catherine invited him to visit the mansion.

Chen Xiansong naturally agreed.

Froncis' living room. The little guy was wearing a milky white lotus-edged silk dress. Although it was very beautiful, Chen Xiansong could see that this dress was a bit old. In addition, she wore a beautiful emerald hairdress on her head, which was very beautiful, but gems are very common green crystals, and an ornament that ordinary people can afford.

The little guy sat quietly, and beside her was dressed neatly but looked even more desolate, Catherine.

"Your Excellency, thank you for coming to the humble house again without grudges." Catherine sat on the chair and bent her waist slightly. It was such a simple action that she had difficulty doing, and even caused a slight cough. If Jay had not supported her by the side, she would have fallen down from the chair.

Although Catherine looked very bad, she seemed quite excited and excited: "Your Excellency, I didn't expect you to be the teacher of Cess... I offended you the night before. It was my fault. Please don't hate Cess for this. She is a good child. As long as you can calm down, you can do anything."

Catherine bowed her head deeply to the boy in front of her. Jay had already investigated clearly that Froncis had the potential to become a soul-thinking person, and her teacher was Chen Xiansong.

The moment she heard the news, Catherine felt a great joy at first, but not long after, she was so scared that she was sweating coldly. The reason was very simple. The night before yesterday, she misunderstood Chen Xiansong greatly. There is a rule among them: If the students' immediate relatives offend the teacher, the students will be called "unkind".

This is a serious sin.
