Only then did Shu Yao have time to ask Xu's mother how many months Shu Ya was pregnant and if there was anything she needed to pay attention to at this time.
Mother Xu said naggingly:
"The eldest grandma's body should be four months old. The uncle was only three months old when he fell from the horse. Because he was so young, he didn't dare to talk about it. Later, the uncle had an accident. At first, the eldest grandma was still alive.
I held my spine straight, still holding on to the hope that the uncle would wake up. The imperial physician from the palace came many times, and five or six well-known doctors were invited. Even the street doctor Ling was invited in to see him, but there was nothing he could do.
The eldest grandma guarded the uncle all day long. She said that as long as the uncle was still alive, there would be hope. Unexpectedly, a few days ago, things suddenly took a turn for the worse. The uncle's face was bruised from holding back, and his whole body was shaking like chaff. In the end, he didn't leave a single word.
The words left. Grandma collapsed all of a sudden..."
Shu Yao held the handkerchief in her hand and listened with her head slightly lowered. No wonder her sister never mentioned that she was pregnant in her letter. It turned out that the month was too young to mention it. She sighed in her heart and listened carefully to what was going on inside.
At the same time, he asked if he had asked a doctor to take Ping An's pulse for his sister.
Mother Xu said:
"I invited him when he was ill, but as soon as the uncle's incident came out, he didn't take care of it anymore."
Shu Yao frowned and glanced at Xu's mother with big eyes. Xu's mother panicked and shrank back a little. Just as she was about to explain again, someone came to report at the door, saying that the general had sent someone to help her.
Grandma reports back.
After hearing this, Mother Xu was about to go in and wake up Shu Ya, but Shu Yao grabbed her. Shu Yao said to the person who came in:
"Bring her in. If you have anything to say, tell me. I'll tell my sister when she wakes up."
Mother Xu stood still in the center of the earth, her head lowered and she stopped talking. After a while, a man with a casual appearance came in, saluted Shu Yao, and said politely:
"The general said, let me report back to my grandma. The tomb at the ancestral mausoleum cannot be prepared so quickly. It is also freezing and snowy, so it will take some time. Now that the government advocates simple mourning, it is not easy to keep the funeral for too long. Let's wait for three days.
After the funeral, the coffin and coffin will be parked at Hanshan Temple outside the city for a while, and then when the tomb is ready, a date will be chosen for the burial."
Shu Yao nodded, indicating that he understood, and sent people out.
Someone came in later and talked about asking the monks and Taoist priests to "pick up the three" and "light the flames". Shu Yao wrote them down one by one and waited until her sister woke up to tell her. When she turned around and saw that Xu's mother was still standing, she ordered her
Go quickly and ask a doctor to come and take my sister's pulse.
Looking up, she saw that it was almost noon and there was no movement in Shu Ya's room. Shu Yao was a little worried, so she opened the curtain and walked in gently.
In order to let Shu Ya sleep more peacefully, benzoin was lit in the room and the curtains were lowered everywhere. As soon as she entered, her eyesight went dark. Shu Yao was quiet for a while before her eyes adapted to the light. When she approached Shu Ya's couch, she
Seeing Shu Ya's brows furrowed, her face turned pale, and big beads of sweat were all over her face. Shu Yao was startled and hurriedly called for help, asking the doctor to hurry up.
"Sister, sister, wake up, what's wrong with you?" Shu Yao didn't dare to move Shu Ya, so she just wiped the sweat from her forehead and asked repeatedly.
Shu Ya woke up leisurely, covering her abdomen in fear, and sweat flowed down her hair to the pillow.
"My stomach hurts, I, my stomach hurts..." Shu Ya's deer-like eyes looked at Shu Yao with pain. Shu Yao held a hot towel and wiped her sweat while shouting outside:
