In the early morning, after the ugly hour, Su Shanji woke up.
When I opened my eyes, the light was slightly yellow, and it was still a silent night outside the window, but I couldn't feel the peace. There were all kinds of discomfort, restlessness, and restlessness in my mind and body, but I couldn't grasp the direction of the discomfort for a while. Why should I feel uncomfortable?
What? Many broken pictures passed through my mind, there was no way forward, there were soldiers chasing behind me, something was collapsing... Amidst such a chaotic feeling," the voice of the family came.
"The lady is awake."
This was Xiao Chan's voice. She could react immediately without thinking or identifying. She closed her eyes and struggled to recall for a while. When she tried hard to get up, Xiao Chan pulled the quilt and pushed her down. The little maid didn't.
No matter how much strength she used, the main reason was that she didn't have much strength anymore, and her eyes were red.
"When is it?" she asked, her voice a little hoarse. "It didn't sound like hers at all."
"It's almost five o'clock."
"Miss, don't get up...", "I'm going to heat up the medicine..."
The voices that rang in her ears included Chan'er's, Juan'er's, and Xing'er's. The one who told the time was Liheng. He also stayed here. She still felt uncomfortable in her head, but there was some warmth in her heart. She recalled the past
Things: "Shopkeeper Liao and the others..."
"Miss, please don't think about these things, okay..." Juan'er beside the bed swallowed even more. Su Tan'er shook her head apologetically and said weakly: "No,"
"Shopkeeper Liao and the others have gone back to rest." Ning Yi's voice sounded next to him, and then he whispered to Chan'er Juan'er, "Lou come and tell her, you go out to help Xing'er first." The two maids nodded and went out.
"I went to the next room to cook medicine. When it was quiet," Su Tan'er's vision and energy gathered a little. The man who was her husband-in-law was wearing the same blue robe as in the daytime and moved a stool.
Come and sit down and look at her.
Her demeanor was similar to her usual chatting on the second floor, tilting her head casually, with a bookish indifference and calmness. Although the young man's appearance did not appear to be very mature and steady, this was indeed what she had thought about in her mind.
Looks like a talented person.
His talent and knowledge are better than many others, but he is not ostentatious, and his inner depth and quietness actually have a lot of power. Su Tan'er has never thought much about this in the past. Logically speaking, things like the number one talent should always be
It would give people a very powerful feeling, but at home, including her, Chan'er, Juan'er and Xing'er didn't seem to feel too deeply about this, and they interacted with each other easily and naturally from beginning to end." Maybe when others say it
They would feel proud, and were shocked when they suddenly found out, but..., they seemed to only see this person from the beginning to the end. If they looked from a distance, others would see the aperture of the number one talent, but if they looked up close,
It seems that "people" can only see this simple person.
But I don’t know why, when I saw him at this time, I suddenly remembered the aura of the number one talented man. He had stayed there since night and still hasn’t had any rest. Even though he said he was his husband, he still influenced him after all.
, My husband is a scholar after all and "should not be involved in these business affairs." But now she smiled apologetically. When she was about to speak, Ning Yi took a piece of cake and handed it over.
It felt like chatting on the second floor. Su Tan'er almost subconsciously wanted to pick it up, but she didn't have the strength in her hands. The pastry spun around in the air, and he took it into his mouth. He chewed it for a while, and then
He drank the tea and swallowed it. The man's expression was indifferent.
"I can eat these things, but you can't. You can only drink medicine."
She wanted to laugh, but then the surge of emotions brought about a feeling of dizziness and fatigue, and she felt helpless: Why is this person trying to make her laugh?
Then she heard Ning Yi say: "Then... I have something to talk to you about."
"Huh?" The weak woman on the bed opened her eyes tiredly again.
………………
The charcoal fire started to burn, and the medicinal gas began to rise in the urn. The three maids stood by and occasionally turned to look at the wall next to them. There was actually worry in their eyes.
Xiao Chan is a little better, but Juan'er and Xing'er are worried. The young lady has finally woken up. But she still has a high fever. This long night is actually just the beginning. The young lady is ill, and things in the eldest room will be difficult.
, they all grew up with the young lady. Knowing the hard work and price the young lady has put into this, she will never give up. I don’t know if the uncle can convince the young lady. But even if the young lady is convinced, what will happen to the big house?
What should I do? Let the lady watch all the hard work flow away?
"...What are we going to do what my uncle just asked us to do?", "I don't understand..."
"The place where my uncle does experiments also has something like that...", "But what's the use...", "I don't know..."
While cooking the medicine, the three maids talked to each other about their doubts. Previously, Ning Yi asked them to use ink lines to draw some grids horizontally and vertically on the rice paper, and then took the account book from three years ago and started to mark some things on it.
Some are place names, the names of the Su family's shops, and more are weird and crooked symbols, simple vertical lines, a circle, half a circle, etc., which are completely incomprehensible. My uncle remembers them quickly, but occasionally he frowns and thinks.
Think about it, I called three people over twice and asked them what caused the problem of entry and exit, and then noted it next to the symbol.
"My uncle wants to know about the situation of the Su family," but what will this do? No one can figure it out. Over the past year, my uncle has given them the feeling of being very kind and knowledgeable, but after all, he is not involved in business matters. At this time, the whole Su family
Everyone feels the crisis. So many shopkeepers and stewards who have been in business for decades are busy. My uncle is a scholar after all. Even if he wants to help, I'm afraid it's just a temporary act of bookishness. There is no need to specialize in an industry of much use. I'm sure
That's right.
"Uncle, he...", Xiaochan, who is closest to Ning Yi, lowered her head and said, "Uncle, he is very powerful...", she also knew that Ning Yi was very powerful in the past." Since having a physical relationship with Ning Yi, this
This feeling is naturally stronger, but there is a limit. In the past, she wanted to ask her uncle to help the young lady share some things, mainly for the sake of the closeness between the uncle and the young lady, and someone to help the young lady share the burden. Of course the young lady would feel this way.
Even more happy. However, my uncle can certainly not replace the young lady in business. Even in Xiaochan's heart, my uncle is "much better than the average person" in these matters. This is already very powerful, but to say that my uncle is better than all others in everything
"You are awesome." How is that possible? It is impossible for Xiaochan to feel this way.
"We also know that my uncle is very powerful and smart, but he can't be as good at everything as writing poetry...", Juaner whispered.
"My uncle promised that he has a way and won't lie to anyone." Xiaochan could only stubbornly believe this at this time. Next to her, Xing'er was silent for a long time while looking at the charcoal fire, and finally stretched out her hand to wipe the corners of her eyes.
"I know Miss's temper. But this time, as long as I can convince Miss to take a good rest, that will be fine." Perhaps because something was pressing in her heart, Xing'er, who is usually the most temperamental, shed many tears this night.
His voice became even more choked up, "As long as the young lady is good, even if she can't become the head of the family, the young lady will still be the young lady, and the uncle will still be the uncle." We will still be together, as long as this is the case, that's fine..."
Her emotions infected Juan'er and Chan'er next to her. Then the sad gray enveloped them again. When Juan'er started to swallow more, Chan'er whispered beside her: "My uncle will find a way...", only "
"Hmm." Xing'er and Hao'er nodded beside them. "In fact, probably no one really believes it."
As long as the young lady can be fine, that's the best. As for the rest, "I can only let other people in the family work hard." Old lady, shopkeeper Liao, shopkeeper Xi, the second master, and the third master. In such a big family, there are always people.
Those who can bear it..."
……………… When the maids went to boil the medicine, the oil lamp was still flickering in the bedroom, Ning Yi sat in front of the bed, took a sip of tea, and slowly conveyed Dr. Sun’s diagnosis.
"It's not the wind and cold, it's not just the wind and cold. You know it yourself. I know you're feeling very uncomfortable now, but if you can't settle down and solve the problem, you can't feel at ease. You can't feel at ease." If the problem can't be solved, it's going to be a dead end.
...I know you are annoyed by me nagging like this...
He paused for a moment. "Su Tan'er shook her head slightly, and then opened the door. Her voice was as soft as a wisp of smoke that was about to break in the wind at any time: "Mr. Zhu," I understand, but how can I let it go?
..." His expression was a little sad.
"It's up to you whether you let it go or not.
"Ning Yi put his palm on her forehead, "You can't discuss too much now." So I will simply explain that I just finished reading several accounts from Dafang three years ago."
"Huh?" Su Tan'er was a little confused.
"I just finished reading several accounts from the big house three years ago." Ning Yi looked at her quietly and repeated, "My father-in-law is not out of danger yet, and so are you. Grandpa may consider sending someone to take over, but you
"I won't agree, but from now on, you can't get out of bed. Everything is in front of you." So I will help you next. "Chaner, Juaner, and Xing'er are also here, but there are some things that I can only do for you."
, this is the only way..."
"I know all the questions, but there is no need to say too much now. Let's talk slowly tomorrow or the day after tomorrow when you are more awake. I also have something I want to talk to you about. But now, there are only a few points: We know each other.
It has been more than 10 years, and I want you to know one thing now. Whatever I say can be done, it can be done. I am very serious about this. I will help you do this now...
Su Tan'er held his hand, shook her head with difficulty, and showed a smile that was about to cry: "Ms. sir, you don't know about this..."
Ning Yi stopped her shaking her head, moved slightly closer, and looked at her: "No, I know the nature of these things." I only said this after knowing it. I also want you to know this. Do you believe it?
For me, it depends on what you think of my character and our friendship, but for the time being, just remember what I said, this is the most important thing.
In the room, you can listen to it, watch it, and think about it in bed. It doesn’t matter. I will tell you the reasons for any decision you make. You nod your head and we will send it out. I know you won’t let it go. It’s impossible to let you go.
Put it aside, so I won't put you aside. "I will only reduce the process of your thinking about things and only consider whether what I said makes sense. Is this okay?"
Su Tan'er closed her eyes for a long time. A tear slipped from the corner of her eye, and Ning Yi slowed down his words.
"It's not yet time for the Su family to have trouble." They haven't taken action yet. You should prepare to drink medicine now and stop thinking about things. Just remember what I said. If I said it would be solved, it will be solved. Then have a good sleep.
, at least temporarily relax, nothing will happen at home, because I am here. Huh?"
Su Tan'er closed her eyes and nodded.
"Okay, we've reached an agreement."
Ning Yi went back and drank tea. After a while, Su Tan'er opened her eyes from over there: "Mr. sir, I'm much better...", "You people who do business are not convincing at all." Ning Yi dismissed.
He curled his lips and shook his head to show disbelief.
Su Tan'er smiled slightly, feeling dizzy again in her mind.
Then Xing'er, Juan'er, and Chan'er came in with a medicine bowl, helped her up and drank the medicine. Under the concerned gazes of several people, she finally fell asleep. Before she fell asleep, she said: "My husband is going too."
Take a break…,…”
"knew."
I woke up once in the middle of the journey, and the sky was getting slightly brighter. Xiaochan sat on the chair next to her and took a nap. The figure was still sitting at the table in front of the window, and she didn't know what she was writing. So she closed her eyes and fell asleep again, maybe
It's because of that back view that this time, my heart seems to be calmer.
