Chapter 1769 Conversation between Husband and Wife
In just two or three days, Tao seemed to have lost a lot of weight, her complexion was terrible, and she looked completely dejected and lifeless.
"Ah Han, please take me to see your father," Tao said, her voice hoarse and weak.
Meng Han frowned, "Mother, your health..."
“It’s alright. I’ve taken the medicine and I’m much better now. When we get to the clinic, I’ll have Dr. Mi take a look at him. If it’s nothing serious, I’ll stay there and take care of your father. He’s so badly injured; what would it look like for me, his wife, to just stay at home?”
"Father has someone to take care of him. Mother, you're not feeling well, so you shouldn't go."
Tao shook her head. "Let's go. I also have something to say to your father."
Since things had come to this point, Meng Han couldn't refuse any longer.
However, Tao had just fallen ill, and the weather in November was very cold, so Meng Han quickly brought out the carriage.
Shu Yu went with them, and Tao Shi surprisingly gave her a kind look, no longer being sarcastic or sarcastic. She even smiled at her while sitting opposite her.
It seems this incident really hit her hard, causing a drastic change in Tao's personality.
The three quickly arrived at the entrance of the Mi Family Clinic. Doctor Mi had already reopened the clinic, and the original doctors and apprentices had started working again.
Uncle Meng is resting in a room in the backyard, with the attendants he had brought with him earlier taking care of him.
Shu Yu first greeted Doctor Mi, and then the group headed towards the backyard.
Uncle Meng was drinking medicine, a large bowl of dark, bitter medicine, and Shu Yu could smell it even standing at the door.
Tao has been taking medicine for the past few days, so the smell makes her mouth taste bitter and her eyes feel sore.
As soon as she entered, Uncle Meng looked up and instructed his servant to take the empty bowls out first. Then he nodded to Shu Yu and looked at Tao Shi, "I heard from Aqi that you've been sick these past few days?"
"Hmm, the doctor said it's due to excessive worry and emotional fluctuations." Tao walked to his side, naturally took out a handkerchief to wipe the medicine from the corner of his mouth, and then took a cup from the table, poured him a cup of tea, and fed him, "Drink some water to reduce the bitterness."
Uncle Meng remained silent for a moment, hesitated for a second, and then lowered his head to take two sips.
He then said, "You don't need to worry too much. Things have come to this, and life goes on. No matter what you choose, some relationships will not change for you."
His tone was much gentler than that day, and Tao suddenly felt a lump in her throat and her eyes reddened.
She nodded, sniffed, and said, "I know. I've been thinking about this for the past few days. It seems like I've made my life worse and worse over the years. My brother died, my children are distant, and my husband is even considering divorce. Why is this happening? I've gradually come to understand that I've never really found my place in the world."
These words were rather heavy and profound, even surprising Shu Yu, who hadn't expected Tao Shi to think about the issue so deeply these past two days.
Uncle Meng and Meng Han were also surprised.
Seeing the surprised looks on their faces, Tao couldn't help but smile bitterly. "We've been married for almost twenty years, and we're practically two separate families now. The people I'm closest to now are you, Aqi, and Ahan. Before, Ahan always said I didn't know whose mother I was, that she had given birth to her but always sided with Taoqin. At the time, I thought she was being unreasonable, but now I realize where I went wrong."
