It has been more than half a year since Xie Songhua came to this world, and he has gained some experience in observing the rules of survival in this world.
For example, in the current situation, a reasonably mature person should give a negative answer, or at least it should be vague. Don't you see that everyone is so afraid of taking responsibility?
But looking into Xie Wenyuan's eyes, she found that she couldn't say this kind of evasive words, so she nodded very sincerely, "Qi Cheng, but you have to listen to me."
Mrs. Qi's reaction was as if she had seen a ghost. Just when she was about to speak, Xie Shuhua pulled her sleeve from behind, and she swallowed her words.
Anshi seemed relieved, "This is great. The old lady is like this now, so she can only rely on the fourth girl."
After saying that, he turned to Xie Changqing and said, "Master, you'd better go back and change your clothes quickly! I just fell in a hurry and my clothes are all wet."
Then he went to drag Xie Wenhua, "And you, your father just fell badly, why don't you help him quickly!"
Xie Changqing wanted to speak, but Anshi gave him a sharp look. The warning in his eyes was so strong that he couldn't say anything anymore.
Mrs. Yu didn't say anything, but she still looked at Xie Songhua with uneasiness in her eyes.
Xie Wenyuan simply said, "Everyone has been worried about mother's illness these past few days and is exhausted. I will stay here tonight and I will replace you tomorrow. Everyone needs to have a good rest."
This gave everyone a step down, and after a few polite words, they dispersed in twos and threes.
Xie Songhua had already rewritten Zhang Fangzi beside him. Just after he finished writing, he saw a hand stretched out.
He looked up and saw that it was Xie Tu.
"Give it to me!" She looked at Xie Songhua with a slight smile, "Both the mothers who cooked the medicine recognized these medicinal materials. I took them over and asked them to pick them out first."
Xie Songhua did not give it to her. He reached out and pressed her hand down, "As long as my aunt and I are here, you can go to bed!"
Xie Tu just stood there and looked at her. Under the light, the girl's face was as soft as honey. She paused for two breaths before smiling: "Fourth sister, I believe you."
Xie Songhua suddenly smiled and reached out to scratch her nose, "I know!"
Then he took her shoulders without hesitation and pushed her out, "So don't get involved. It's true that you should take more care of me. I don't have time to see him during this time. I'm so busy here."
It’s chaotic, I’m afraid the other side won’t be able to take care of it.”
Xie Tu would turn around at the door. There seemed to be a lot to say in his glazed eyes, but in the end he still didn't say anything. He only looked at Xie Songhua deeply and answered with one word, "Okay."
Xie Songhua personally went to get the medicine, moved the medicine sling to the door of the old lady's room, carefully explained to the two women the precautions for decoction, and then went to the old lady's bed.
Xie Wenyuan was still standing by the side, holding a handkerchief to wipe the old lady's hands and face.
Seeing her coming, Xie Wenyuan quickly took out the old lady's hand from the quilt. Xie Songhua examined her carefully, then leaned over to listen to the old lady's heartbeat, then moved the lamp and looked at her eyes, but still just went there.
Write the recipe on the side.
Xie Wenyuan wanted to ask several times, but he never came out.
Xie Songhua put the newly written recipe on the table next to him to dry, and he sat down under Xie Wenyuan's hand, "Otherwise, aunt should go and rest too!"
Xie Wenyuan didn't look at her, just shook his head, "I can't sleep even after I go back to the house, so I might as well stay here with my mother."
"Since my aunt believes in me, I can't let her down."
Xie Wenyuan then turned to look at her. In the light, all she saw was the seriousness in the girl's eyes. Such seriousness made her feel a little warm in her heart.
She tried her best to pull her lips together, but finally patted Xie Songhua's shoulder lightly, "Don't put too much pressure on me."
After the medicine was boiled, Xie Wenyuan didn't ask for help from others. He let the old lady lean on him and slowly fed the medicine while coaxing her gently.
After finishing the bowl of medicine, Xie Wenyuan looked at the old man on the bed expectantly, as if by looking like this, he could see that the old lady would get better immediately.
Xie Songhua took the bowl away and took out a cloth bag from his sleeve.
Xie Wenyuan was a little surprised to see a row of thin silver needles lined up on the table beside her bed.
"you……"
"I still need to trouble my aunt to move a lamp."
Her expression was very natural and her tone was very ordinary. Xie Wenyuan couldn't help but feel a little more hopeful.
The room was quiet except for the occasional beeping sound coming from the charcoal fire in the stove and the whistling wind coming from the window.
After all, this was a sleepless night for the Xie family.
Mrs. Qi was sitting under the lamp, with an obscure expression on her face. When she saw the girl in a cloak coming in, she suddenly stood up and asked, "Why did Shu'er stop me just now? Your grandmother is seriously ill. How can Xie Songhua have such ability?"
?”
Xie Shuhua held her mother's hand, and the mother and daughter still walked back to the lamp. She stared at her mother's face for a long time, "Are you worried about your fourth sister?"
When Mrs. Qi heard this, her expression was a little complicated, but in the end she just sighed, "If something really happens, Madam, how can I explain to your father?!"
"Mom, you should trust the fourth sister."
Hearing this, Mrs. Qi was completely stunned, "You..."
"We can't hire a doctor right now. If grandma continues like this, she won't be able to get through the matter. Then the fourth sister's previous diagnosis of grandma will have to be settled later.
To put it bluntly, it is a dead horse and a live doctor right now. If the fourth sister happens to be able to cure her grandmother, then it will be great. If she cannot be cured... After all, this time, it was my aunt who strongly advocated for it.
If you stop me now, when my father comes back later, the eldest brother will definitely put all the blame on us, and my father will feel that you didn't take care of my fourth sister."
Ms. Qi was a little stunned by what she said. She vaguely felt that this was not the case, but after thinking about it again, she felt that Xie Shuhua's words made sense. Anyway, the matter was already so bad, and only by allowing Xie Songhua to continue the diagnosis and treatment could she be removed.
"No matter what the situation is tomorrow, I will inevitably be tired. Since it is rare to have a night of peace now, you'd better rest early and recuperate.
To be honest, my daughter can't help or say anything about Shou'antang, but the most important thing in her heart is your mother's health.
It has begun to snow outside. These days, you have to take care of the house, worry about your father's safety, and are busy serving your grandmother. Even your iron-clad body is too much to bear. It's hard for your daughter to say it, but she feels distressed in her heart.
Very well, just think it’s for your daughter’s sake so that she can sleep well!”
Mrs. Qi couldn't help but be deeply moved. During this period of time, she was only aware of the anxiety in her heart and the fatigue in her body. Everyone's attention was on Shou'an Hall, on the imperial guards outside. How could anyone care about her?
Even her biological son only ran between the study room and the Shou'an Hall without even asking her a question.
After all, only her Shuer truly misses her.
Mrs. Qi also urged Xie Shuhua to rest quickly.
However, Xie Shuhua had to wait for Mrs. Qi to lie down before turning back to Yilan Garden.
Halfway through, he suddenly changed direction and ducked into a side passage.
There was a shadow waiting in the passage, probably because it was too cold, so Yu Zi was stamping his feet there.
He didn't turn around until he heard the sound of footsteps, "Third Miss!"
