16 Sacrifice from father to mother
Here, Dr. Li has not yet received the results, and Zhuohua over there has also brought in a woman who is about ten years old. The woman was wearing an indigo placket jacket, her skirt was slightly dark, and her body was embroidered with auspicious clouds. From the time she entered the door to the present, Xiao Zhisu's first attention was not her appearance, but her dignified and beautiful temperament.
She was carrying a hemp rope on her shoulder, and the end of the rope was decorated with a medicine box, and when she saw Dr. Li taking the pulse, she frowned slightly, "Miss Zhuohua, why did you call me here again since Dr. Li is here?" ”
Sensing the slight displeasure in Du Qiao's words, Zhuo Hua hurriedly said, "Miss Du is outside, if it weren't for Miss Zi's serious injury, I wouldn't dare to bother you." What's more, you don't know the temper of the third son, he feels the most sorry for the ninth girl, how can you see the ninth girl feel sad at all? ”
When Du Wan heard this, his dark amber eyes looked Xiao Zhisu up and down, and then smiled slightly, quite confident, "Since the nine girls begged each other, I should treat them myself." ”
Xiao Zhisu was baffled by this woman's sudden change, but seeing that she was willing to save her, she didn't care so much, and said kindly, "I'm sorry Miss Du." ”
"Hmph, it's just a yellow-haired girl, she can have a few catties and a few taels." Dr. Li, who had been silently checking Zi's pulse, suddenly got up and sat down at the Eight Immortals table and muttered to himself while writing prescriptions. Although his voice was small, the room was very quiet, and everyone listened.
Du Wan didn't refute, just smiled and bypassed Dr. Li, walked to the bed and looked at Zi Yu, bent over and didn't know where he touched it, so he said softly, "Ninth girl, don't worry too much, this girl is just suffering from a fever caused by trauma, as long as the fever subsides, she will not worry about her life." As he spoke, he took out a small blue and white glazed porcelain bottle from the medicine box, handed it to Xiao Zhisu, and said, "This is Xuanyu Nine Flower Cream, it will take effect after two hours after taking it." However, medicine can only alleviate the urgency for a while, and it needs to be carefully recuperated to recover slowly. ”
Doctor Li put down a pause, mentioned the medicine box quite negatively, and said to Xiao Zhisu, "Since the ninth girl invited such a wonderful hand, why should you ask the old man to do it?" ”
Xiao Zhisu watched Dr. Li strode away in a daze, and was about to speak, but heard Qingli say, "I remember!" This Du girl is the wonderful hand goddess doctor passed on by the maids of Taohuawu! ”
Doctor Li glanced at Miss Shi disdainfully, and left without waiting for Xiao Zhisu to explain. The corners of Du Wei's lips flashed with a light smile, and he didn't show any smugness because of Qingli's words, and he didn't have any other colors in the face of Dr. Li's sudden departure.
Xiao Zhisu pursed her lips and smiled, "Haven't asked the girl's name yet?" He will thank him again for his kindness today. ”
Du Weak smiled and shook his head, "Du Weak." Nine girls don't have to be polite, it's just my business. ”
She speaks in an orderly manner and is not disturbed by any external causes, which is a kind of dignified elegance that comes from the bones. Xiao Zhi's gratitude for treating Du Weak in addition to saving Zi's life added a few other favorites.
Du weakened his jaw, put away the medicine box, picked up the prescription left by Dr. Li and glanced at it, and said lightly, "Xuanyu Nine Flower Cream can be taken internally or externally, but this prescription should also be taken in the morning and evening to help recuperate." ”
After taking the prescription, Xiao Zhisu bowed and said with a smile, "Zhuohua, please send Miss Du back for me." ”
"Yes, girl. Miss Du, please. ”
After Du Wan left, Xiao Zhisu sat at the head of the bed and guarded Zi Yu for a long time, until her fever subsided, and then she went back to the room to rest under the persuasion of the nurse and Qingli.
However, I was worried all night and did not sleep well, and I woke up until the nurse came to call the door the next morning.
Mama Lin saw Xiao Zhisu with a poor complexion, and said distressedly, "Girl, why are you so haggard?" ”
"Nothing, just sleeping repeatedly. Nurse, what time is it? Xiao Zhisu walked to the rhombic mirror and sat down, looking at her face in the mirror, listless, and there was a faint dark green under her eyes, indeed as the nurse said, very haggard.
"Not long after midnight, the girl is going to pay homage to the lord today, and the old slave has prepared all the things he will use in the carriage." Mama Lin walked behind Xiao Zhisu and combed her hair, combing and combing with emotion, "The old slave used to comb the county lord's hair like this, and the girl's hair was the same as the county lord, black and smooth. ”
"Nurse." Xiao Zhisu gently held Mama Lin's weather-beaten hands, which left traces of rough work before, one by one, clear and profound.
"If the county lord sees the current girl, he will be very happy."
Really? Xiao Zhisu's pupils were dilated, reflecting her illusory and vague appearance. Will my mother really be happy when she sees herself now? She is a loser, both in terms of process and ending, she is a complete failure, because she was unwilling to die in the previous life and was reborn, is she really qualified to face her mother?
"Girl, girl. The third master is here. Mama Lin pushed Xiao Zhisu, who was in the fugue, and said in a low voice.
Xiao Zhisu came back to her senses, and when she raised her eyes, she saw her father in an ink-colored robe with intricate patterns. Although it has passed the age of standing, it is still dignified and graceful, and the unruly style and bones on the body have precipitated a lot with age, like alcohol, the more you taste it, the more fragrant it is. is such a beautiful person, who made his mother fall in love at first sight.
"Daddy."
"Ready? Okay, let's go. I don't know if it's because of the sensitivity of literati, Xiao Wenxuan always feels that her daughter's eyes have accumulated a lot of things, and it seems that she can see the bottom clearly, but in the end, she can't see anything.
"Well, let's go."
Xiao's ancestral tomb is in Lanling, but the ancestral tomb is generally opened and buried together after the death of the younger husband and wife, so the bones of the county lord of Yunyang are temporarily buried in the cemetery on the outskirts of the city.
It took about an hour to take the carriage to the cemetery on the outskirts of the city, and the father and daughter entered the cemetery with baskets. The moment she saw the tombstone, Xiao Zhisu couldn't help but kneel down, tears in her eyes.
"Mother, my daughter has come to see you."
Xiao Zhi has a thousand words to say and endless crying to complain, but because her father is by her side, she can't say a lot of words, so she can only tell silently in her heart.
"Chu Yun, you see, Su Su has grown up, and she is as good as you were back then. Rest assured, I will protect our children for the rest of my life. Xiao Wenxuan burned the last stack of money in his hand, looked at Xiao Zhisu, who was crying silently, and reached out to pat her shoulder, "Good boy, your mother understands, it's almost time, let's go back." ”
"Daddy......" Xiao Zhisu still wanted to say something, but when she saw Xiao Wenxuan's eyes, she had to nod, turned her head to the tombstone and said, "Mother, then we will go back first, I am now grown up and can take good care of myself and my father." ”
"Susu, my father hasn't taken good care of you by your side over the years, and my father will slowly compensate you in the future." Xiao Wenxuan also knew that his daughter was not in good health, and his heart was full of guilt, especially when he saw his daughter's face becoming more and more similar to his wife, and recalled that when his wife was lingering on the sickbed and teary-eyed to take good care of Su Su, the guilt almost wanted to drown herself.
Xiao Zhisu didn't answer anymore, but silently wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief.
On the way back, the father and daughter briefly talked a few words and did not mention it.
Xiao Zhisu said goodbye to her father after returning to Xiao Mansion, and was rumored to Qingxin Pavilion before returning to Tiansu Pavilion, she frowned, and followed her grandmother without asking much.
