Chapter 13: Truth and Falsehood are Difficult to Distinguish, Misbelief
"Miss, Madame is here."
Xiaoyu hurriedly trotted in, sat down on the edge of Yumei's bed, patted her shoulder as she slept on her side, and whispered. As soon as the words fell, Yumi heard faint footsteps and walked in.
Xiaoyu stretched out her hand to help her, she sat up smoothly, raised her eyes slightly and met her wife's eyes, she lowered her eyes, slowly stood up, bent her knees slightly, saluted, and did not speak.
Madame seemed dissatisfied with her reaction, but when she thought about the purpose of her coming today, she endured it, "Mrs. Seventeen is not well? ”
Yumei shook her head, "Mrs. Lao is worried." ”
Mrs. is also straightforward, "I don't care much about you, it's just that Xiangye has been busy with court affairs recently, and he has no time to take care of you, and you are stuffy in the room all day for some reason, and the doctor said that it is not good for your body to go on like this, so I will come to see you." ”
She glanced left and right, snorted softly, and said, "I heard...... Xiangye has been here a few times, but you have avoided it, what? Relying on his own body, do you want to embarrass Xiangye? ”
Yumei lowered her head, "Yumei doesn't dare." But the voice was different from usual, low and cold, and it was intimidating to listen to.
It was the first time for Madame to see her like this, and she couldn't help frowning.
For a moment, the two stood opposite each other, but there was nothing else to say.
After a long while, the lady spoke, and her tone seemed to soften, "The small state of India and the United States sent an envoy to Beijing and sent a pair of thumb monkeys, strange and clever, they are being raised in the garden at this time, and several sisters have gone to see the fun, you can also follow me, go and have a look." ”
After that, he didn't allow Yumei to refuse, flicked his sleeves, turned around and went out first.
Yumi had no choice but to put on her cloak and follow out.
When the two of them dispersed to the garden, they saw that the area around the rockery was already full of wives and maids, and someone saw them coming and shouted, "Madam." ”
When the rest of the people heard this, they hurriedly saluted, and then let a way come out.
Yumi followed behind her lady and walked over. The rockery is beautiful and realistic, surrounded by a bamboo fence, Yumei has not seen it, like a new one recently, among the rockery, there are two very small figures shaking, and Yumei walked very close, before he saw clearly.
It was a pair of monkeys the size of a palm, with huge fingers, a slender tail, and a furry body, which looked very cute.
"This foreign thing is just different, look at this monkey, it is so little bigger, you tease him, he will make a face with you, it's very interesting, Madame, why don't you try it?"
Myolie Wu leaned over and handed her a long wooden stick with a small bell tied to the end of the stick.
The lady took it, and went to tease the little monkey, who was not afraid of the living, and played with the bell very vigorously.
A group of people laughed, and the atmosphere was joyful and lively.
Although Yumei had something on her mind, she was inevitably infected when she was in it, and for a moment, she noticed that the fetus in the house moved slightly, and a warm feeling that she had never felt before arose.
Child.
yes, she has a baby.
No matter what happened, the child in her womb was innocent.
No matter what it looks like now, the child in her womb is real and connected to her heart.
Even for the sake of the child, she has to cheer up, only if she cheers up, the child can grow up healthily.
Thinking of this, she seemed to wake up from a long dream, and her eyes lit up again. She looked around and suddenly noticed that the sunlight shining on the rockery was so kind, and the hair on the petite monkeys looked delicate and soft in the sunlight, and she unconsciously stretched out her hand.
The darker one, when he saw it, leaned over curiously, and then, with all his might, jumped on her arm and wrapped its tail tightly around hers.
"Wow!"
"Oh my God!"
"It's incredible!"
When the wives and maids around saw it, they first took two steps back, and then greeted them again, admiring again and again.
Yumei herself didn't expect that this little monkey would be so intimate with her, and she didn't dare to move for a while. A few of the more daring ones also reached out to touch the cute little thing.
Myolie Wu stood on the periphery, first surprised, but seeing the crowd and chaos, she suddenly smiled like a ghost, stretched out her hand to call Yahuan Qiao'er, whispered something in her ear, and the girl retreated.
There are more and more people around Yumi.
But for some reason, suddenly the little monkey, which was originally very well-behaved, screamed as if it had been pricked by a needle and fled in all directions. Everyone was shocked, and in an instant, there was a burst of screams one after another, followed by a panicked push.
Yu Meixin was not good, subconsciously protected her stomach, and hid to the side, suddenly, a pair of hands pressed her waist, and with a heavy push, she couldn't stand and fell down.
She looked at the blue sky, and before she could sigh, she fainted.
When I woke up again, it was the middle of night.
There was a candle burning in the room, and the candle flickered on and off. Yumei looked around and found that Xiaoyu was not there, only Gu Yangling was sitting on the edge of the bed.
Seeing that she was awake, he hurriedly went to help her.
"I'm ...... What's wrong? She leaned on Gu Yangling, half sat up, only to feel soreness and weakness, and a faint pain came from her lower abdomen.
Gu Yangling tightened the quilt, wrapped her tightly, and comforted her softly, "It's nothing, you have a good rest, everything will be fine." ”
"Well......" She just wanted to close her eyes obediently, when she suddenly trembled, as if she remembered something big, "No! I remember...... You tell me! It's mine...... My baby...... Is it still there? ”
Gu Yangling was stunned, first clenched his hands into fists, and then slowly dispersed, the corners of his mouth forcibly pulled an arc, and said with relief: "Xiaomei, don't think about anything, okay?" ”
The answer is obvious.
She trembled and touched her belly, but the moment she touched it, it bounced open as if it had been burned by heat. She smiled sadly, "Child...... Nope. ”
Her last hope was gone.
It's strange to say that at this moment, she suddenly quieted down, and she couldn't even squeeze out tears.
It's like dead.
When Gu Yangling saw it, his heart ached, but he couldn't do anything about it. I had to hold her tightly, as if holding her a little tighter would ease it a little.
It wasn't until the second half of the night that the candle burned out, and the flame suddenly rose at the last moment, and then it was completely extinguished.
"Let's go."
In the darkness, Yumei's voice sounded without warmth and waves.
Gu Yangling was stunned, paused for a moment, and slowly stood up, "You rest early, I'll come to see you tomorrow." ”
After that, he glanced at Yumei again, turned around slowly, and walked towards the door with small steps, looking back three times in one step, and he didn't know what he was expecting.
Suddenly, Yumei opened her mouth and stopped him, "Xiangye, Yumei has something unclear and wants to ask Xiangye." ”
Gu Yangling hurriedly turned back, "You ask, whatever you want to ask, I will tell you." ”
"Yumei wants to ask Xiangye, when did you fall in love with Yumei."
Gu Yangling thought that she would ask about the child, and how to deal with such a slave, but she didn't expect her to ask this, and she didn't expect that the question was obviously about love, but the tone sounded very cold.
But he still replied truthfully: "Do you remember that day when you healed me? ”
In the dark, no one could see Xin Yumei's face clearly, and could only hear her smiling voice, "Original...... Xiangye really had a plan for Yumei so early. ”
The heart is real, but there is a picture......
Gu Yangling just wanted to explain, but Yumei gave an eviction order, "I'm tired, Xiangye, please go back." ”
For many days after that, Gu Yangling came to Zijinju twice a day, but none of them opened the door to Yumei. There is no one else in the house, and I am willing to go one more step to this side courtyard.
Apart from...... Aunt Nine.
On this day, Yumei was reading a medical book in the hospital, and someone knocked on the door of the hospital, Xiaoyu went to open the door, and the one who brought in was Aunt Jiu.
Yumei and her have no friendship with her, only once, Yumei lost her mind, and Aunt Jiu asked her maid Xiaowen to follow and take care of her.
Yumi wanted to come to the door to thank her, but she didn't want to be trapped in the door all the time and forget about it.
I don't want Aunt Jiu to come by herself today, "I heard that Sister Xin is unwell, she should have come a long time ago, but she was afraid of disturbing her sister, so she came late, and my sister is not to blame." ”
Yu Meiyuan also had a good impression of her, so she got up to greet her and led her to sit in the courtyard together, "Sister Gu can come, and Yu Mei is happy in her heart." It's Yumei who doesn't know the number of etiquette, and she should have gone to see her a long time ago. ”
Aunt Jiu smiled with apricot eyes, "It's all a bit of courtesy, it doesn't matter, besides, Xiangye also said that you don't have to abide by these rules." ”
As soon as she heard the word Xiangye, Yu Mei's heart suddenly fluctuated, and she didn't know how to answer, so she just looked at Aunt Jiu and smiled reluctantly to show her answer.
Seeing her like this, Aunt Jiu understood a little in her heart, and she no longer entangled, and changed the topic, "Sister, this is ...... Reading a medicine book? ”
"Yes."
"I've heard about my sister for a long time, and she has good medical skills, and it seems to be true."
"But it's nothing to do, just flip through it."
Saying that, Xiaoyu had already served good tea and refreshments, and Yumei pushed in the direction of Aunt Jiu, "Sister Gu, please use some." ”
Aunt Jiu nodded, took a sip of tea, and suddenly became lonely, "Also, this deep mansion compound is really a waste of my sister's skills." ”
There seems to be something in those words.
If it were in the past, Yu Mei would definitely want to ask, but at this moment, she herself is already chaotic and depressed, and she can't care about others.
The two sat quietly for a while, Yu Mei raised the teacup, and said: "I was taken care of by my Mongolian sister that day, and Yu Mei has not been thanked, so here I will replace the wine with tea, and thank Sister Gu." ”
Aunt Jiu was not polite, and nodded in response. After drinking a cup of tea, she suddenly spoke, "My sister talked about the day, and the one who was the elder sister also reminded my sister, you don't look at the people in the house who are kind on the surface, but in fact, none of them are fuel-efficient lamps, especially the sixth aunt Myolie Hu." I see that you had an accident in her house that day, and my sister can get it...... Beware is. ”
After a pause, he added, "The most important ...... What she said, it's best not to believe it. ”
Don't believe it?
Best?
In Yumei's heart, she suddenly sighed.
