I wanted to hold back my tears, my chest was stuffy and uncomfortable, my lips were bitten out of blood, and the smell of blood permeated the tip of my tongue and lingered.

This pain is not as good as the pain in my heart, and my mind is confused. Why is fate so cruel to me, that even the last bit of warmth I have has to be taken away alive?

I carefully held Mrs. Su's thin hand, her hand was so cold, colder than the cold wind at the end of autumn, and such a thick brocade quilt could not warm her body. I looked and was shocked to see that the huge room didn't even have a stove.

I stumbled to my feet and stumbled towards the door, and I wanted to ask the old butler why he had denied Mrs. Su so much, and why he had treated her like this. Isn't Lord Su and Mrs. Su have a deep relationship? How could he be so cold and allow his subordinates to treat his wife like this?

Before I could step out of the room, a hoarse and familiar voice came from behind me: "Xi'er—is that you?" ”

Hearing Mrs. Su call my name, I hurriedly turned around, she opened her eyes with difficulty, and her soft gaze fell on me: "Xi'er—my Xi'er—" She was terminally ill, but she thought about me all the time.

My tears poured down like the water that burst the embankment, and fell on the white dress, and bloomed into a thick flower. I walked over quickly and knelt down beside her, crying breathlessly: "Mother, I'm late—Xi'er is late—"

Mrs. Su stretched out her hand to caress my cheek slowly, I held her cold watery hand, the black hole cracked out of my heart became bigger and bigger, I was afraid that she would leave me like this, I was afraid that I would not be able to catch her, and I watched her die.

"Xi'er, if my mother can see you again before she dies, she will have no regrets." Mrs. Su had a soft smile on her bloodless face, as if all her illness had disappeared after seeing me.

I shook my head vigorously, not listening to her sad words, she was obviously fine before I got married, how could she be so sick in just one year? I don't accept this as a fact.

I cried, "Mother, are they bullying you? You don't even have a stove in your house, is your dad bad for you? ”

In fact, I don't know that Master Su is kind to Mrs. Su, and their husband and wife have never blushed or quarreled for decades. Since Mrs. Su married into the Su Mansion, Lord Su has never taken a concubine, and even the children of the two of them died early, and Mrs. Su has nothing to do, but Lord Su still cares for Mrs. Su as always.

"Silly boy, your dad is very good to me." Speaking of Master Su, Mrs. Su raised a faint smile on her face, her happiness precipitated in her heart with the passage of time, this happiness made her whole spirit a little better, I believe she didn't lie to me.

At the end, she held her breath and said slowly: "I wanted to wait for me to leave before letting you know, but King Xuan insisted that you come to see me for the last time, and he said that he didn't want you to hate him for the rest of your life." Mother can see that King Xuan is sincere to you. Father and mother are just such a daughter as you, if you don't have a good time, your mother will not feel at ease when she dies. ”

My tears fell, Mrs. Su was like this, and she was still thinking about my future, but I couldn't do anything, so I could only accompany her on the last journey. I am like a driftwood, drifting with the current. The warmth of the only remaining home I felt in Sioux House was also about to fade.

"Mother, hold on, I will immediately go to the palace and beg the emperor to let the best doctor from the Tai Hospital come, you will definitely get better-Mother-you can't leave Xi'er-"

No matter how much I prayed, Mrs. Su closed her eyes. She finally murmured: "Little sister, my sister has done her best to be a mother for you, Xi'er, she is very much like you-"

Mrs. Su's hand slid weakly down my cheek, and her wrist hit the edge of the bed with a lonely sound, which was infinitely amplified in my ears, and I knelt in front of her bed, until my knees were sore and numb. Mrs. Su's kindness, I can't pay it back in my life.

After kneeling for a long time, the old housekeeper came into the house and persuaded me to get up, he knew that there would be such a scene, but he still couldn't help but cry: "Miss, your health when you marry Queen Xuan's wife is not as good as day by day, if it weren't for the prince to ask the imperial doctor to treat and take care of it, Madame would not have lasted until today." The imperial doctor said that Mrs. was running out of oil and the lamp was dry, and Mrs. had no regrets when she left, and only hoped that Miss and King Xuan could grow old together, and she would be relieved to know that she was in the spring. ”

The old butler's words did not make me feel any better, my eyes were swollen and painful, and my heart was like ashes. After kneeling for a whole day, at sunset and dusk, my legs were so painful that I almost lost consciousness, and I limped out of Su Mansion with the help of Xiao Ye.

On the way back, I didn't take a sedan chair, I walked very slowly, Xiao Ye followed me and stopped chattering, she had never seen me like this, even if I was bullied by Li Xuan, I didn't cry so badly.

Before I reached the gate of the palace, the twilight was four, and the last cloud on the horizon disappeared. From a distance, I saw Li Xuan standing like a bright moon and a breeze, his dark eyes dyed with anxiety, and only dispersed when he saw me. Tears crept up my cheeks unconsciously.

No wonder he refused to let me out of the house for more than a year, no wonder he urged me to visit Mrs. Su last night, no wonder he minded Chu Hong taking me to Tianbaozhai so much but didn't get angry, it turned out that he had long known that Mrs. Su's time was short, and he didn't want me to be sad until the last moment. Li Xuan, at this time, I realized that you had done so much for me.

Li Xuan came elegantly, his every step was so slow, so slow. When he came up to me, I hugged him tightly and cried fiercely.
