Yuquan City is located in the southwest of Anyang State, with steep mountains and abundant water resources.
Summer is a rainy season every year, especially in Shuijing Town, Yuquan City this year. Since the beginning of summer, there has not been a single sunny day in ten days.
In a clinic in the town, an old man sat at the counter and read a medical book peacefully.
"Doctor Wu, please come and take a look at my mother!"
A young man hurriedly ran in carrying an old lady on his back, his face full of panic and anxiety.
The old man looked up at the outside of the house while holding the book, and asked calmly, "What's wrong?"
The young man's face was filled with panic and anxiety. He quickly said, "My mother suddenly had a high fever last night. I took the medicine you prescribed, but not only did the fever not go away, but she started foaming at the mouth this morning."
Upon hearing this, the old man threw away the medical book in his hand and quickly stood up: "Quick, take the person to the inner room."
The young man was a frequent visitor to the clinic. He carried the old lady into the inner room with ease and placed her on the narrow wooden couch.
While the old man was taking the old lady's pulse, he carefully asked the young man about the patient's recent condition.
In the side room at the backyard of the clinic, a young woman was lying on a simple wooden bed. She was wearing a light moon-white gauze nightgown that highlighted her slender and exquisite figure.
The woman's eyes were tightly closed, her chest heaving violently, her brows furrowed, and beads of sweat beads on her forehead and neck.
It was obvious that he looked like he was having a nightmare.
"Harming others will eventually harm yourself, Wen Luoxin, this is the retribution you deserve!"
The dignified and beautiful face of the woman in the dream turned into a sinister smile: "Don't worry, in a few days, I will let the evil child you gave birth to go down to accompany you!"
Wen Luoxin suddenly opened her eyes and saw the pearwood bedtop. The wood was rough and simple, with a few lines of words engraved on it.
"Prosperity and Wealth"
Wen Luoxin's pupils turned from blank to confused.
She must have been killed by a glass of poisoned wine given to her by Wen Luoyi. The poison was developed by her personally. She died on the spot after taking it. There was no accident.
But she didn't die?
She slept on this bed for 17 years, and the words on the top of the bed were also carved by her own hands.
So she is in the clinic in Shuijing Town! Did the master save her?
Wen Luoxin's calm eyes instantly became moist. She had broken up with her master in order to marry Xiao Yunyu, but she didn't expect that her master would save her in the end.
The man's cold face, eyes full of disgust, and cruel words are all vivid in my mind.
"Qi'er is still the eldest son of the Xiao family, but the position of the crown prince cannot be given to him."
She dragged her frail body and pleaded bitterly, "Xiao Yunyu, Qi'er has been self-disciplined and respectful for so many years, and has always strictly held himself to the highest standards as the eldest son of the Xiao family. You can't be so cruel."
"A day of marriage is a hundred days of grace. We have been married for so many years. I beg you, I beg you... This is all my fault. Qi'er knows nothing. He didn't do anything wrong!"
"His biggest mistake is having a mother like you!" He squatted down, his fierce eyes filled with disgust. "I'm doing you a favor by not killing you."
Wen Luoxin looked at his back as he left resolutely, hatred and unwillingness intertwined in her heart.
She had already begged so humbly, why was he so cruel!
Everyone in the capital said that Xiao Yunyu doted on his wife excessively, but only after living with him did one know that although he seemed affectionate, he was actually the most arrogant and conceited. He was always self-centered and never cared about her feelings.
Even if she tried her best and used all means, she still couldn't get his favor!
On the contrary, Xiao Yunchen, who is as gentle as jade and elegant, will always complete her requests as orders. No matter how excessive her request is, he will agree unconditionally.
"Knock knock knock"
"Miss Wu, get up quickly! Doctor Wu asked me to call you to the lobby to help!"
A woman's voice came from outside the door, sounding very anxious.
Miss Wu?
It had been so long since anyone had called her that.
Dust-covered memories spread in my mind.
At that time, she didn't know Xiao Yunchen yet, nor did she know her true identity. She lived with her master in the small clinic in Shuijing Town.
Hearing this name again now seems like a lifetime ago.
"Oh, here I come." She put on her shoes, got out of bed, took her outer robe from the hanger beside the bed and put it on, then opened the door and walked towards the lobby.
At this time, the lobby was crowded with people. Many patients were pale and sat there crying out in pain.
"Judging from the pulse, it should be the cold and heat entering the body that causes the high fever." A familiar yet unfamiliar voice entered Wen Luoxin's ears.
Looking in the direction of the voice, Wen Luoxin saw that her master had black hair with only a few strands of white hair on his temples.
There seem to be fewer wrinkles on the face.
Doctor Wu glanced at her and frowned slightly: "Don't just stand there like an idiot, come and help!"
Wen Luoxin walked over with doubts in her heart.
"Prescribe medicine according to this prescription, three sets for each person." Doctor Wu handed her the prescription he had written long ago.
Wen Luoxin took the prescription handed over by Doctor Wu and looked at it with frown. Isn’t this the original prescription for the plague sixteen years ago?
He tightened his hand holding the prescription slightly, and suddenly a bold idea popped into his mind.
It's impossible! How could such a bizarre thing happen in the world?
"Xin'er, are you sleepy? Go get the medicine! The patient is waiting!"
The master's tone was a little serious, but there was no hint of blame.
How long has it been since Master called her so affectionately and lovingly...
Since the breakup, the master looked at her with disappointment and alienation, and would only call her "Madam Xiao" in a strange way.
Or, turn a blind eye.
Wen Luoxin's tears instantly burst out, and the sour and uncomfortable emotions in her heart almost overwhelmed her.
Wen Luoxin was crying as she was picking up the medicine, feeling so uncomfortable and sad.
"This is such horrible weather. When will the sun come out? My clothes are almost getting moldy from hanging out to dry."
"It's been raining non-stop since the beginning of summer. Don't you think we're going to have another flood like we did three years ago?"
"No way! We're almost ready for the double harvest season, and we can't have a flood!"
Wen Luoxin listened to what the people in the clinic said and her hand that was grabbing the medicine suddenly stopped.
Three years ago, Shuijing City did not suffer from floods, but droughts. The emperor even sent officials to dig ditches in many places to irrigate crops.
Only three years before the year she met Xiao Yunchen, there was a flood.
She looked up and asked the nearest person, "Sir, what year is it?"
The man was surprised for a moment, then laughed and joked, "Miss Wu, are you kidding me? You even forgot the year? This year is Anyang's fourth or fifth year!"
"Anyang... four or five years?" Wen Luoxin was so shocked that the medicine in her hand spilled all over the table. She hurriedly gathered her hands together to pick it up, but her hands were shaking so much that she couldn't close them for a moment.
There were raging waves in her heart, and her nails dug into her flesh. The pain gradually cleared her panicked mind.
She actually came back to life and returned to the time before she met Xiao Yunchen.
After the panic came a huge surprise. God had mercy on her and gave her the opportunity to make a new choice!
