Chapter 112: Choice
By the next day, Granny An still hadn't woken up, but fortunately the medicine could still be fed, so An Lan and Kindinch could only comfort each other, hoping that Granny An would wake up tomorrow.
It's just that the two of them guarded Granny An like this, but they suddenly left the errand of Yuanxiang Courtyard.
An Lan is still the head of the incense envoy now, but since she sat in this position, she has not fulfilled her duties for a few days, and she has left for half a month before. Fortunately, this journey has attracted more and more attention, and Lu Yunxian has no dissatisfaction. However, now that she has returned to Yuanxiang Courtyard, she is still sitting like this, Lu Yunxian is a little unbearable. The main thing is that for a time like her, in Lu Yunxian's eyes, it is completely unnecessary.
Lu Yunxian understood that Granny An was different from others to An Lan, so as soon as An Lan came back, she ordered a few incense slaves to take turns to watch, and if there was any possibility that her mother-in-law was going to wake up in the past two days, she would immediately inform An Lan. Even if An Lan didn't worry about those fragrant slaves, the goldfinch was also guarding on the side, for this reason, she even allowed the goldfinch to leave the errand in her hand, but because of her hard work, An Lan was still not satisfied!
Lu Yunxian believes that at this time, An Lan should put the affairs of the Jinxiang Club first, at least to ensure the time to rest, and not to stay up day and night like this. It's just a little girl, staying up like this for two days and two nights, not all the brains are mush, and what is more fragrant than what, it must make people brush it down directly, and there will be no place to cry when the time comes.
But Lu Yunxian's construction, An Lan has not copied it, and even Lu Yunxian asked Xiangnu to invite her over, but she said that she couldn't leave.
"What is she trying to do!" Lu Yunxian's voice was a little angry, she wasn't pretending. It's really annoying.
An Lan ignored her words. She barely understood. You can ignore it. However, she has always given full support to An Lan's entry into the Jinxiang Society, including now. No matter how far An Lan has gone, how high her heart has also risen, and now it has reached the most critical time, in this matter. She was more nervous than anyone else, and she didn't want to see any unwanted surprises.
But on the contrary, this accident came from An Lan herself, so how can she not be annoyed!
This is related to the fact that her early investment is likely to be in vain, and her dreams about the future will become empty talk.
The more Lu Yunxian thought about it, the more she couldn't sit still, so she was about to go over in person, but only when she stood up, Shi Song came in from outside. Shi Song has now been promoted to the little steward of the treasury, and every few days of the month, he has to bring the counted accounts to Lu Yunxian for review.
"Put it there." Lu Yunxian glanced at the booklet in Shi Song's hand. He gestured to the table, and led the two incense slaves out. It's just that. As soon as she walked to the door, she suddenly hesitated, then turned her head to look at Shi Song, and asked after a while, "How is your relationship with An Lan?" ”
Shi Song was slightly stunned, and for a while he didn't understand what Lu Zhangshi meant by asking.
Lu Yunxian said again: "Granny An is sick, do you know?" ”
Shi Song nodded, since the fall of Wang Zhangshi, although he and An Lan have rarely had contact, the relationship between the two is different from before. Moreover, An Lan also intended to let him have more air with the Golden Finge. As a result, such an invisible net woven by An Lan began to play a role after Wang Zhangshi left.
Lu Yunxian thought about it for a while, and said: "Envoy An Xiang has been guarding Granny An for a day and a night, and the day after tomorrow is the last round of Jinxiang Competition, you go and persuade her, let her take care of rest first, don't affect the business of the day after tomorrow." ”
Shi Song hesitated for a while, and then responded, but did not promise to persuade An Lan.
"Go ahead, it's done for your benefit." Lu Yunxian walked back from the door as she spoke, at this time, she didn't want to make any trouble with An Lan, and she was always not sure that if she went in person, she could really persuade An Lan.
……
When Shi Song walked to Granny An's place, An Lan came out to pour the medicine residue.
He hadn't seen her in days, but he had heard from her. Speaking of which, in today's Yuanxiang Courtyard, the most famous is not Lu Zhangshi, but An Lan. Almost everyone who mentions An Lan has a bit of envy in their tone, and most people can't imagine that they were just a little fragrant slave not long ago, why is it that in the blink of an eye, they are about to fly up the branches and become a phoenix?
He never intervened on the matter, for he always knew how big the girl's heart was, and that she had been in the dark for so long, for that day. Others only see her current scenery, but they don't know how much effort and effort she has put into it.
Luck is never for nothing, and even if there is a white one, it will definitely not be able to enjoy that kind of blessing.
"You're alright." Shi Song walked up to An Lan and looked at her pale face.
After An Lan poured the medicine residue, she washed the medicine jar again, and then took the hot water handed over by Xiangnu and washed her hands, before she looked at Shi Song and said "um" lightly.
Shi Song was silent for a while, and then asked, "What's wrong with my mother-in-law?" ”
"Not awake yet." After An Lan dried her hands, before going in, she asked, "Why are you here?" ”
During this time, Yuanxiangyuan should be very busy, and now it is still a time for the exchange of the old and the new, and it will take at least half a year to completely stabilize it.
"I'll come to see my mother-in-law." Shi Song said and looked at An Lan inquiringly.
An Lan was a little surprised, but she still nodded, and Shi Song opened the curtain and walked in.
The golden finch was pinching Granny An's arm, and suddenly looked at them and couldn't help but be stunned. Shi Song only felt that there was some heat in this room, so the moment he came in, there was a moment of trance.
Seeing the old man on the bed, and then looking at An Lan's eyes that were still clear despite anxiety, Shi Song's words of persuasion were left in his stomach, but before leaving, he couldn't help but say: "After so many years of hard work, you can't just give up, we can wait, but can you come back?" ”
An Lan only felt that there was a knife digging in her heart, and she had been thinking about this sentence all night.
However, there is still no answer.
On the third day, the medicine had been eaten, and the mother-in-law still did not see the possibility of waking up again, and the hearts of the two sank to the bottom.
The goldfinch invited the old doctor over again, and after looking at it for a while, the doctor shook his head, and then gave Granny Ann a few injections. After the doctor received the needle, they heard Granny An muttering something dreamily, An Lan and Grandfinch hurriedly leaned over and called Granny An, but Granny An only frowned slightly, and then fell asleep again.
The two turned their heads at the same time: "Doctor! ”
The old doctor frowned slightly: "There is still a reaction, but the sound is very little." ”
An Lan said anxiously: "What do you mean?" ”
The old doctor shook his head and prescribed another prescription: "Use another pair of medicines, but after tonight, if you can wake up, I'm afraid it will only be a return to the light." ”
……
It's night again, it's the third night, and both of them can't hold it anymore.
The golden finch didn't say much, and let An Lan go to rest early.
That stool also allowed Lu Yunxian to change into a comfortable recliner yesterday, if it weren't for the small size of Granny An's room, Lu Yunxian would have to move a bed here.
Although it was replaced by a comfortable recliner, An Lan didn't feel sleepy at all, but her mind was blank. What should be thought about and what should not be thought about, the first two days and two nights have been thought, and now, the rest is just waiting.
In the second half of the night, when the golden finch changed An Lan to sleep for a while, she finally closed her eyes and took a nap.
It's just that, just like the previous two days, as long as she sleeps, she can see her mother-in-law wake up, lying on the bed in a good manner, and talking to her, saying that she is fine, she is blindly worried, and asked her to hurry up and prepare for the Jinxiang Society......
Such a good dream almost made her reluctant to wake up.
However, as soon as I opened my eyes, it was already dawn, and my mother-in-law still did not wake up.
The golden finch carefully checked her mother-in-law's snort and heartbeat, and quickly seemed to be the same as the previous two days, so she gritted her teeth and said, "You are ready to prepare, you can't delay the Jinxiang Society, I'll comb your hair!" ”
An Lan stood stunned for a while, then brushed away the golden finch's hand, and then sat down next to Granny An.
"An Lan!" The golden finch was anxious, "If the mother-in-law knows that you are like this, she will not be happy, you go to the sleeping forest first, and then come back later, but if the mother-in-law does it, you can also see it, what is the use of you guarding here now." ”
An Lan spoke, her voice a little hoarse: "If I leave, what if my mother-in-law wakes up?" If so, then it's really a return to the light, what should I do? If my mother-in-law really can't wake up, I'll at least give my mother-in-law one last ride......"
The more she spoke to the back, the lower her voice became, and finally she couldn't say it anymore.
The goldfinch stood behind her, tears pouring out of her eyes, she looked at the incense that was still on the table, and then at the leaky pot next to her. In the past few days, while guarding Granny An, An Lan has been looking at the things inside, taking them out one by one and gently stroking them, that look always makes her uncomfortable.
She squatted beside An Lan, hugged her knees with both hands, buried her face in her arms for a while, wiped away her tears, and then raised her face and said in a vague voice: "However, what will Jin Xiang do, it's today." ”
An Lan was silent for a while before she said, "I will have a chance in the future, but it is very likely that I will not have the opportunity to accompany my mother-in-law again." ”
The goldfinch bit her lip, not daring to refute this sentence, and could not refute it.
She knew that what An Lan said was right, but she also knew that for people like them, for An Lan, the opportunity of the Jinxiang Club was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Compared with the contradiction and sadness of the golden finch, An Lan seemed much calmer, and while pinching Granny An's arm, she said: "Don't cry, get up and rub your mother-in-law's legs, it's so cold, mother-in-law has been lying still like this, and her hands and feet will become stiff."
