Chapter 357 Mu Qing Vomits Blood
"So soon? I want to stay one more night." Hu Xiner looked at him eagerly.
Mu Qing rubbed her head and said, "The Liu family will be worried if you don't go back for so long."
"Then let the servant take a letter over." Hu Xiner said gloomily.
She really didn't want to go back and face the complicated relationships in the Liu family.
Mu Qing was coaxing her when there was a sudden knock on the door. The servant said cautiously, "Master, Steward Liu is here to inquire about the whereabouts of the Young Madam. He said that the Young Madam has not returned yet, and Old Master Liu is very worried. He guessed that the Young Madam had come to the Lu family, so he came to inquire."
He paused, then added, "The sedan has stopped at the door."
Mu Qing went along with it and said, "The young lady and I will be here shortly."
He personally escorted Hu Xiner to the door.
Hu Xiner got on the sedan chair reluctantly, lifted the curtain and looked back. Mu Qing was still standing there, looking at her with a smile.
Hu Xiner leaned against the window and looked out for a while, until she could no longer see Mu Qing's smiling face, then she lowered the curtain dejectedly.
I don’t feel it when we don’t see each other normally, but after a brief period of tenderness, separation seems so cruel.
"They are obviously a legitimate couple, why is it so difficult for them to even see each other?" Hu Xiner stroked her chest. The blow she had just suffered was somewhat soothed by the warmth of her family, but precisely because of this, she now missed Mu Qing and the Lu family even more.
Home is a safe haven from a bleak life. She only truly understood this sentence now.
Seeing that they were almost at Changhua Street, Hu Xin'er felt a sudden surge of anxiety for no apparent reason: "Stop the sedan!"
She eventually changed her mind.
Butler Liu smiled and said, "Young lady, what are your instructions? If there is anything you want to buy, you can ask the servants to run errands."
Hu Xiner got off the sedan chair. She felt uncomfortable seeing everything about the Liu family, so she didn't look directly at housekeeper Liu Liu.
She lowered her eyes and said calmly, "Please tell Butler Liu later that I will be staying at the Lu family tonight."
Butler Liu looked very embarrassed: "I'm afraid this is not a good idea. If Old Master Liu asks..."
Hu Xin'er glanced at him, her tone imposing without any anger: "Why, I've already married Lu Yunjue, and logically I'm already a member of the Lu family, but I can't even stay with him for a night? Or do you also think that my husband sent me to the Liu family and I can't go back to the Lu Mansion?"
Butler Liu did not expect that this usually easy-going young lady would be so sharp in her words.
He said quickly, "I will go back and report to the old master. Please be patient, young lady."
Seeing him walking away, Hu Xiner waved her sleeves and walked towards Lu Mansion.
"Young lady, this..." The servant who stayed behind hesitated. "Why don't we wait for Butler Liu to come back?"
Hu Xin'er glared at him and said, "Do you want my sedan chair to be parked on the street and laughed at?"
Naturally, the servant didn't dare to say a word.
Hu Xiner strode back by herself. Halfway through, she suddenly felt the little life in her belly move slightly.
She froze, touching her belly in disbelief.
The little life seemed to sense her anticipation and uneasiness, and kicked her lightly again.
A spontaneous joy filled Hu Xiner's heart, and a surprised smile appeared on her face.
All the unpleasantness she had encountered before disappeared in an instant. Now she had only one thought in her mind, which was to share such a precious moment with Mu Qing!
"Little guy, do you miss daddy too?" She stroked her slightly bulging belly and said to him gently in her heart, "Mom will take you to find daddy now."
As if in response to her words, that wonderful sense of rhythm appeared again. While Hu Xiner was chattering to this little life in her heart, she quickened her pace to share the good news with Mu Qing.
However, when she reached the gate, she found that the door of Lu's mansion was open. The servants at the door all had serious expressions, and a servant was running out in a panic and almost bumped into her.
The servants of the Liu Mansion had been following Hu Xiner to protect his safety. Seeing this, they immediately stopped the boy.
"What are you doing? I have urgent business!" the servant shouted impatiently, but when he saw Hu Xiner, a light of hope suddenly flashed in his eyes.
"Young Madam, you're finally back!" he said anxiously. "The young master just vomited blood!"
"What?!" Hu Xiner's good mood, which had just begun to emerge, was immediately shattered by this bad news.
She forced herself to calm down. "He was fine when I left. How could he suddenly vomit blood? What on earth is going on?"
"We don't know either!" The servant recalled the scene just now and felt a wave of fear. "After you left, the young master was about to go back when he suddenly fell to the ground."
"Where is he now? Has the old lady been informed of this?" Hu Xin'er hurried back to the mansion and inquired, "Have you gone to ask Doctor Yu from the mansion? Why did you run away?"
The servant said incoherently, "I've already informed the old lady that the young master has been carried to his room. Doctor Yu said his condition is very bad and he's been vomiting blood. We had no other choice but to call in a doctor!"
"Go get a good horse and ride as fast as you can to get Doctor Dou over here!" Hu Xin'er immediately gave the servant her godfather's address and instructed, "When you get there, mention my name and tell him the situation is critical. Please come."
In order to prevent any accidents, she specially dispatched a few more servants to go with her.
When the servants of the Lu Mansion saw her, they seemed to have found a backbone and came over to report the situation.
Hu Xiner walked quickly into the room, looking calm but her hands were shaking slightly.
The more critical the situation is, the more she must not panic. Otherwise, if she suddenly falls and has a miscarriage, the whole house will be in chaos.
Mu Qing, please don’t be in any trouble! She couldn’t help but pray silently in her heart.
It was clearly only a short distance from the mansion gate to the room, but it seemed so long in Hu Xiner's heart.
At this time, the door of Mu Qing's room was in chaos. When Hu Xiner stepped over the threshold, her heart couldn't help but jump. There was a large pool of dark brown blood there, which was really shocking to look at.
Doctor Yu was anxiously saying, "Quick, go get some gauze and medicine!"
Two or three servants were running around the room helping out, while Mu Qing was coughing painfully on the bed, his clothes stained with blood.
Tears streamed down Lu's mother's face as she wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with a handkerchief. "Mu'er, how are you?"
Mu Qing opened his eyes slightly and saw Hu Xiner standing a few steps away, staring at him blankly.
His first reaction was to force himself to say weakly, "Aunt, please take Xin'er away..."
