Two hundred and twenty-two
The clinic is open, and with Fu Wei as a backer, there is never a shortage of patients.
For a whole month, Yu Ying was so busy that she almost forgot about her marriage with Fu Wei.
When the housekeeper said that he wanted to announce the marriage and set the wedding date, she suddenly remembered that she was about to become a married woman.
When Fu Wei's marriage was announced, everyone from the emperor to the common people was surprised.
They originally thought that Qu Jinhou would be alone for the rest of his life, but now he is getting married?
When the emperor learned that Fu Wei was going to get married, he specially ordered someone to investigate the identity of the girl. When he found out that she was born into a slave family, he did not say much. He just sent someone to deliver the imperial edict, granting the girl the status of a county lady and asking the emperor and empress to add a very decent dowry.
Yu Ying was inexplicably given the title of county lady, and since her marriage was announced, the clinic has become busier than the first month it opened as many patients have come to visit due to its reputation.
The wedding was originally scheduled for mid-October, three months from now. Who could have imagined it would be so busy, and before we knew it, it was already October.
According to custom, the wedding was still seven days away, and the bride had to stay at home to wait for her wedding, so Yu Ying followed the local customs.
The emperor's dowry included a house, so Yu Ying moved out of the marquis's mansion and went to the house to get married.
When she was about to get married, Fu An came to see her once.
I don't know when it started, but Fu An has become so attentive.
At first she thought he was interested in her, but after a while, she realized that there was no trace of love between men and women in his attentiveness.
Rather than a relationship between a man and a woman, it is more like the younger generation's filial piety and respect for the elders.
The original body was one year younger than Fu An, which made Yu Ying very puzzled.
Fu An came with a box.
Seeing this, Yu Ying asked, "What does this mean?"
Fu An laughed and said, "I just came back and didn't save much money. These were all obtained from my uncle by being shameless. I just borrowed them to give to my aunt to add to her dowry."
Yu Ying was startled and a little awkward when she heard the name "little aunt," but she didn't try to correct it. She just said, "Why does everyone want to add to my dowry?"
All the valuable things brought back from Cangwu became her dowry, and then the emperor also added a "luxurious" dowry, and now Fu An also said that he would add a dowry to her.
Fu An smiled and said, "Other people give dowry to my aunt because of my uncle, but I give dowry to my aunt just because she is my aunt."
Yu Ying raised her eyebrows in surprise: "Why?"
Fu An: "I guess my aunt and my master are from the same place, and he is a great doctor, which makes me respect him very much."
Yu Ying also guessed that she and his master came from the same place, but he was too tight-lipped and she hardly got any useful information.
"Take it back. It's your master who is indebted to you. I just benefited from your master's influence and you are attracted to him."
Fu An shook his head: "Now that I have taken it, I will not take it back. Auntie can do whatever she wants with it."
Yu Ying: "I don't need this, I'll keep it for you to marry."
As soon as she said this, Yu Ying actually felt that she was his elder.
Fu An joked, "If I get married, my uncle and aunt will definitely not sit idly by."
Yu Ying thought about sending someone to return this thing after he returned.
I won’t accept it.
Thinking of this, Yu Ying stopped pushing it back.
"Oh, by the way, since you have such medical skills, why don't you open a clinic and treat the poor wearing a bamboo hat? It doesn't seem that it's impulsive to open a clinic."
Fu An smiled and said, "Wait, if I'm still here in two or three years, I'll open a clinic."
Yu Ying asked doubtfully, "Where are you going?"
Fu An: "Or maybe I can go to a faraway place to find the one I miss."
The one I miss...
Is he his master?
During this period of time, Fu An seemed to be having hallucinations.
In some places in the Marquis's mansion, one seems to be able to see the figures of family members.
Hear their voices.
It seems like an illusion, but not really.
He seemed to hear them say that they must cure him and make him sober up at all costs.
He saw his mother and grandmother, his aunt, Ningning and Zhizhi with red eyes crying.
In those trance-like moments, he seemed to feel the omen of going back.
After Fu An came back from his aunt's place, he went to look for his uncle.
Maybe it’s because my uncle has been taking medication for a while now, and his usually cold and pale skin has become a little more rosy.
Fu Wei, who was feeding the fish in the courtyard, heard the footsteps and identified who it was. Without turning around, he said, "I heard you went to Lan Garden."
Fu An: “I went.”
He asked casually, "Where are you going and what are you doing?"
Walking over to my uncle, I also grabbed a handful of fish food and threw it into the lake. Suddenly, a large group of fat carp came over and said, "Give all the money and property my uncle gave me to my aunt."
Fu Wei glanced at the overly fat fish, frowned, and looked at it with disgust.
Why did you suddenly become so fat?
Then Fu An reached out and grabbed a handful of fish food and threw it into the lake, as if he knew the reason.
"Don't feed my fish anymore."
Fu An said unhappily: "Why can't I feed them? An An and I were the ones who fed the koi in the mansion before."
Fu Wei: "I'm afraid they can't swim."
Fu An wanted to say that he hadn't been unable to swim before, but he glanced at the fat koi huddled together and fell silent.
Suddenly I realized that my uncle in that world seemed to have said the same thing.
He turned his head to look at his uncle.
Even though many people in this world say that he is cruel and ruthless, the more he gets along with him, the more he feels that he is the same as his uncle.
The uncle in that world is as gentle as jade and a gentleman, but he is also cunning and has his own schemes and methods, but they are hidden deep inside.
The uncle in this world never hides his scheming, cunning and methods, but he is actually a gentleman as gentle as jade.
He often says that he is not a good person.
But the fire of sincerity seems to have never been extinguished by the sufferings of reality.
Fu An suddenly said: "Uncle, if I leave this world one day and go back, I hope you will treat me well."
Fu Wei paused, frowning.
"Can you go back?" His voice was cold.
Fu An: "Perhaps I came here to help Fu An escape from the sea of suffering, to help my uncle find his family, and to watch him get married so that he is no longer alone."
Fu Wei remained silent for a while, and after a while, he looked nonchalant again.
"I thought you told me to treat your aunt well when you were going back."
Fu An: "It will be like this at the beginning, but here, I hope my uncle can be well rather than my aunt."
Live well, with hope, happiness and joy.
The uncle in this world has had a very hard life, and he hopes that the rest of his life will be sweet.
"I hope that my uncle will have warm clothes for the rest of his life, a loving partner by his side, and a life free from pain and disaster."
Fu Wei glanced at him sideways: "You don't sound like separation, but like a farewell between life and death."
Then he sighed, "It's good to go back, that world is perfect."
Fu An smiled and said, "Uncle, you and Auntie should have a child in the future."
Fu Wei's originally dull expression suddenly darkened when he heard his words: "Go back to your home and don't worry about it."
Fu An: "Although my uncle's health has improved, it can only last for a few years at most. I may still be attracted to him after spending time with him day and night, but I am only seventeen now, and I will be twenty-seven in ten years. If my uncle is gone by then, what will I do?"
"It's good to leave it as a memory, as a support. If there are more children who inherit the title, then my aunt will always be safe and worry-free."
Fu Wei didn't seem to like that woman that much.
However, he did not deny that he was attracted by her.
He married her only because of her identity, and didn't want her to be exploited by bad people and bring trouble to Daji.
Still somewhat interested.
But who knows whether this interest will accumulate over time, and as for what it will become, who knows?
Perhaps by then, he would consider leaving her with a child so that she could live the rest of her life without worries.
But even if he was willing at that time, she might not necessarily be willing.
And at least for now, he is not considering having offspring.
The impatience disappeared, and he said calmly: "Let's take it one step at a time and see what happens next."
Fu An sighed lightly, then said casually, "That Fu An seems quite timid. If he comes back, my uncle will say that you went to pick him up. This is also the best way to make him trust him."
Fu Wei was standing beside him, not knowing what he was thinking about. He just said "hmm" lightly as a response to him.
*
The wedding came as planned.
After going through complicated formalities and greeting Fu Wei, who was in a wheelchair, she was sent to the bridal chamber.
Looking at the new house, Yu Ying was a little dazed, and recalled the dream she had of marrying Fu Wei in Yu County. She felt that the dream seemed to have some overlap with her dream, but not the same.
After being in a trance for a moment, she shook her head and smiled. She was really possessed. It was just a dream.
He quickly adjusted his attitude as he was now half a hostage.
No one dared to disturb Fu Wei's bridal chamber, and he returned to his new room early.
With a bridesmaid around, it's just a formality, but of course you have to drink the wedding wine.
After the wedding wine was drunk, the matchmaker and the maid left the room.
Yu Ying took off the pearl hairpin on her head, changed into a light set of clothes, went to the ear room to wash her face, and brought warm water to Fu Wei.
Fu Wei looked at the water in front of him, then raised his head to look at her: "You really don't have the slightest bit of shyness of a newlywed. You're so calm as if this house was originally yours."
Yu Ying knew it was fake, so naturally she didn't feel much.
He smiled and said, "My Lord, I don't think you would want to see me being shy."
Indeed, being graceful and elegant always makes people feel comfortable.
He washed his hands and face. Yu Ying said, "I'll have someone prepare some hot water for your feet."
It is not considered late until after washing up.
Yu Ying volunteered, "I'll sleep in the outer room at night. If the Marquis wants tea, please call me."
The weather was cold, so Yu Ying found a quilt in the cabinet and spread it on the couch outside.
Then she started to help him clean up the dried fruits on the bed.
Fu Wei looked at the busy people in the house, coming and going without a moment's rest, adding a bit of human touch to the previously deserted house.
It seemed as if something was quietly filling the long-standing loneliness in this house.
Fu Wei rubbed it secretly with his fingertips.
He didn't hate the feeling.
He also seemed to have a taste of what it felt like to have his wife by his side in his dream.
Suddenly, he didn't want to die so early.
He wanted to live longer.
Yu Ying finally finished collecting the things and asked, "Would you like me to help the Marquis to the bed and rest?"
Fu Wei shook his head. After being disabled for many years, he didn't need someone to serve him in everything.
"Go and rest."
Yu Ying hesitated for a moment, then turned and went outside.
She thought he probably didn't want her to see his embarrassment.
After the people left, Fu Wei supported himself on the edge of the bed, sat down on the edge of the couch, and lifted his legs and placed them on the couch.
Looking at those legs, I suddenly felt extremely irritated, more irritated than ever before.
I looked outside, but I couldn't see anyone through the screen. However, I could clearly feel that there was another person in the room.
For some reason, although I was irritated, I felt that the room was not as cold and gloomy as before.
Yu Ying was tired after a whole day and felt a little uncomfortable at first, but she was so tired that she fell asleep.
After a dreamless night, Yu Ying woke up, stretched her arms, and then lifted the quilt and got out of bed.
I glanced at Lijian, but couldn't see clearly through the screen whether there was anyone else on the bed.
She called out, "Is the Marquis awake yet?"
A faint "hmm" came from behind the screen.
Yu Ying: "I'll clean up first and come help the Marquis change his clothes later."
He said, "No need. I'll ask Zhu Qi to come in and serve you later."
She is happy and comfortable even without her.
Yu Ying had just changed her clothes and done a simple bun when a servant came hurriedly to report: "My Lord, Madam, the young master has suddenly lost his ability to recognize people."
Fu Wei, who was sitting on the bed, was stunned.
Finally went back.
He closed his eyes unconsciously, sighed, and after a moment, he opened his eyes and said slowly, "I'll be there in a moment."
Yu Ying was also shocked and hurried to call Zhu Qi.
After Fu Wei washed up, they went to Fu An's yard together.
Fuan's door was closed and the servant was waiting outside. When he saw the Marquis coming, he explained the situation.
"I don't know why, but today when I went to bring water to the young master, he saw me and asked me in panic who I was. Even though I was from this courtyard, he didn't seem to recognize any of them. He said, 'My Lord...'"
Fu Wei raised his hand to stop him from speaking, and had someone push the door to the room. He said to the inside, "I am Fu Wei. This is my house. No one will harm you. I was the one who brought you out."
The people in the room were startled when they heard the word "Fu Wei", and then they heard that it was he who brought them back.
A little dazed.
Is it him?
After hesitating for a long time, he walked to the door, opened it, and stared blankly at the man sitting on the sedan chair. The man looked like the same man in his memory.
The eye sockets gradually turned red.
There was hesitation and panic in his eyes.
This is Fu An, who was trafficked to the mine, suffered for ten years, and was looking forward to his uncle coming to pick him up.
Fu Wei extended his hand towards him, his voice no longer as indifferent as before, but a little gentler: "Fu An, I am your uncle, Fu Wei."
At this moment, it seemed like we met for the first time after ten years.
