Ruixue discovered this situation after she fainted and woke up. Regardless of the fact that her legs were still trembling, she quickly helped Qiao Zi to reduce the fever physically. She knew very well what it meant if the high fever could not be reduced.

Although he was puzzled by Ruixue's skillful gestures, his wife's fever could not be brought down and she had no choice but to act as a doctor. Song Fanhua took the initiative to ask for help. With Song Fanhua's help, it became much easier for Ruixue to use her hands.

The whole day, Ruixue and Song Fanhua stayed in front of Qiao Zi, not daring to leave for a moment. The cold well water was brought in basin after basin, and basin after basin was brought out. The towel placed on their forehead was almost

Change every minute.

With the joint efforts of Ruixue and Song Fanhua, Qiao Zi's fever finally subsided, but the situation was not optimistic. She fell into a mild coma. Ruixue and Song Fanhua didn't respond much to her even if they talked to her, so they called the doctor.

Look, it’s said that it’s because of depression in the heart. Medication doesn’t have much effect. Heart disease requires heart medicine.

It's self-evident what Qiao Zi's heart ailment is. Song Fanhua took care of Qiao Zi for three days without taking any clothes off. However, her condition did not improve. On the contrary, because Qiao Zi could not eat normally, her body became even weaker. If she continued like this, she might not be able to survive.

In a few days, Qiao Zi will lose her beauty and die.

Is this how I lost my mother?

Ruixue felt extremely distressed when she saw Qiao Zi's pale face. She had promised Xiao Xueer that she would protect the people she wanted to protect, but now that Qiao Zi was like this, there was nothing she could do.

Qiao Zi's situation has spread throughout the Song family, and many servants are secretly worried about Qiao Zi's health. As the head of the Song family and Qiao Zi's father-in-law, Song Yu has not expressed any sign at all, let alone canceling the marriage.

The decision was made without even sending someone over to take a look, which made Rui Xue secretly resentful.

"Xue'er, take care of your mother." Seeing his wife's breathing weakening, Song Fanhua decided to go to his father again and found an excuse to leave. "Dad, go to the kitchen and get your mother some rice soup."

In the past few days, Qiao Zi was in a coma and relied on rice soup to maintain the nutrients her body needed. Now it is difficult to even feed rice soup. It is amazing to drink half a bowl of rice soup. Song Fanhua can only feed it a few times a day, so he

Saying this, Ruixue had no doubts. She just looked at her decadent father and said, "Dad, please be slower."

"Yeah." Song Fanhua stumbled out, but instead of going to the kitchen, he walked to the study.

The servant standing guard outside the study saw him and wanted to stop him, "Second Young Master, the master of the house is busy and there is no one there."

"Go away." Song Fanhua didn't sleep for several days, and he didn't even have the strength to push the servant away.

"Second Young Master, please don't embarrass me." The servant looked at him in embarrassment.

"Get out." Song Fanhua was usually very gentle and would never scold a servant easily, but now, thinking of his wife lying on the bed, he couldn't hold it any longer.

"Second Young Master..." The servant was in a dilemma and just when he didn't know what to do, Song Yu's voice came from the study room. He immediately breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Song Fanhua respectfully.

"Second Young Master, please."

Song Fanhua stumbled into the study and immediately knelt on the ground, "Dad, are you trying to force our family to death?"

Song Yu glanced indifferently at her son who was kneeling on the ground and looked inhuman, then turned to Butler Zhao who was standing next to him and said, "Butler, you go out first."

"Yes, young master." Zhao Bin looked at his nose and left without looking.

Watching Zhao Bin leave the study, Song Yu stood up and threw the account book she had just been reading on her son. She was full of anger and said, "Sir, you only think about the family in your small courtyard. Have you ever thought about the family in this big courtyard?"

My family, have you ever suffered a single day of hardship when you were so old? Who gave you the status you have today? Did your father raise you like this just to raise a white-eyed wolf?"

"Dad, I know that everything I have today is given by the Song family. I also work hard to contribute to the Song family, but this does not include sacrificing my beloved woman and children."

"Do you think I would marry the Ma family if it was not necessary?"

"Dad, what do you mean?" Song Fanhua understood the meaning of Song Yu's words.

"What I'm throwing to you are the account books of our Song family in recent years. Take a look at them."

Although Song Fanhua has not been interested in management since he was a child, he has been exposed to it since he was a child. The trivial matter of reading an account book is still very simple. After only looking at it for a while, he found that the harvest of this account book is not as good as the previous year. If it continues like this, it will even be very difficult.

There may be a situation where one cannot make ends meet. Is this the Song Mansion’s account book?

"father?"

"In recent years, there have been constant natural disasters. Our Song family relies on the land for a living. Not to mention natural disasters, even a strong wind and heavy rain may have an impact on the tenants' crops. If the crops are not harvested well, it means that the Song family's harvest is not good.

, and since the new emperor boarded the plane, the food tax has been getting heavier year by year. On the surface, our Song family is looking at the scenery, but who knows the pressure we are under. In addition, among the five major families, they seem to be harmonious on the surface, but secretly they are all

Wanting to annex the other party, the Song family is just a meat bun in the eyes of the other four major families, everyone loves it... Hua'er, do you know the pressure of being a father? "

Song Fanhua really didn't know that the Song Mansion was so precarious on the surface but secretly. After listening to Song Yu's analysis, he felt a little guilty. In these years, the Song Mansion has been supported by his father alone. He is actually only in his fifties.

, but his head was already full of white hair. Thinking of this, Song Fanhua felt much less angry in his heart.

"Dad, my son was ignorant before, but now he understands. From now on, Song Mansion, let your son share the burden with you. As for the marriage..."

"Hua'er, do you know why your father is so anxious to marry into the Ma family?" Song Yu interrupted Song Fanhua's words.

"My son doesn't know."

"You and Zi'er are a loving couple. Jie'er has amazing talent since he was a child. He was chosen by Old Man Xian and accepted as his disciple. This is the blessing of the Song family. Although this girl Xue'er has a bit of a bad temper, she is a lovely girl. If it wasn't an emergency,

How could a father choose to sacrifice your happiness in exchange for peace in the Song family?"

Song Fanhua is not an idiot. Thinking of his father's previous words, his face immediately turned pale, "What does father mean, is there someone in the five major families who wants to deal with my Song family?"

"My Song family has the worst financial background among the five major families, but because we control most of the food sources of Chu State, we are among the five major families and have a considerable status. However, in recent years, natural disasters have continued, and the pressure on the Song family has increased.

If we don't unite with others, we will be devoured by others in the blink of an eye." Song Yu looked at his son meaningfully, "Compared to other families, the Ma family is slightly weaker, but in comparison, the Ma family is simpler. We

If the two families unite, they can make the other three major families think twice before they act. After all, if our two major families unite, the royal family will not see us fall into the pockets of the three major families..."

In the room, not long after Song Fanhua left, Qiao Zi, who had been in a coma for several days, miraculously opened her eyes. Not only that, she was also conscious, as if she had just slept, and her eyes were bright and did not look like a sick person at all.
