Chapter 135: No more than three months
Song Tingchen's face was as gloomy as water. He just asked the doctor to prescribe medicine. He would use the best medicine for Old Madam Song.
The doctor's face still looked grim. After coming out of the warm room, he looked at Song Tingchen and said directly, "General Song, I won't hide it from you anymore."
Song Tingchen's heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly had a bad feeling.
The doctor sighed and shook his head, "The old lady's health was not good to begin with. She might have been lucky if she had been well taken care of."
"But since three years ago, her health has been deteriorating day by day, and now she is at the end of her rope. Even if she takes the best medicine and is carefully cared for, she won't last more than three months."
"General Song, you have to be mentally prepared."
For a moment, Song Tingchen felt only silence in his ears.
No matter what the doctor said, he seemed not to hear.
Everything was fine, how could it be that Old Madam Song... how could it be that she doesn't have much time left?
He lived a lonely life since childhood and was almost always looked down upon. When he was young, a monk once said that he was destined to be a lonely person.
If you meet the right person, you may be able to change your fate.
Song Tingchen never believed in these things.
But as Su Tan was determined to divorce him, not long after the divorce, his father died unexpectedly on a snowy night.
By now, his mother wouldn't live more than three months.
At this moment, Song Tingchen actually felt like a lonely person.
It’s the time and the fate.
It seems that everything God has given him will eventually be lost one by one.
Song Tingchen suddenly felt a suffocating feeling in his heart.
A sharp and intense pain shot through the tip of my heart.
Song Tingchen didn't know when the doctor left.
He stretched out his hands in vain, trying to grab something.
But I didn't catch anything.
I could only feel the wind scraping my bones, blowing through my fingers.
"Husband, why are you standing in the wind alone?"
Liu Qingyin's gentle voice came from behind him.
She stretched out her gentle hands and put a thick cloak on Song Tingchen.
Song Tingchen turned his head and frowned for a moment. The word "husband" made him dazed. In his memory, there was someone who once called his name so gently.
But this person is not the current Liu Qingyin.
"You're not feeling well, why are you out?"
Song Tingchen's indifferent voice sounded.
Liu Qingyin's fingertips tightened subconsciously.
She still had an impeccable smile on her face, but there was a hint of sadness between her brows. She sighed softly, and her voice drifted into the wind and snow.
"I know everything that happened in the warm room today."
"Husband, Xiaoxiao thought I was being bullied, so he went to the warm room and made a scene, trying to stand up for me. Ultimately, I was wrong in this matter, so please don't misunderstand Xiaoxiao because of this."
Song Tingchen felt a little annoyed. What Liu Qingyin said was clearly considerate. Perhaps it was because he heard the bad news at this moment, so he felt a little impatient when listening to her.
He frowned and said patiently, "Since you are not in good health, don't think about these things. Just take good care of yourself."
After all, it was because of his absence that Old Madam Song became paralyzed and is now dying, so he has a deep grudge against Liu Qingyin.
Song Tingchen is the one who puts his mother, children and himself first, and his wife last.
Someone who believes that a wife's role is to take care of the husband and children and keep everything in order at home.
This will not change just because his wife changes from Su Tan to Liu Qingyin.
In the past, Su Tan worked hard for the Song family and almost sacrificed half her life, but he still felt that she was not doing well enough, that she was too extreme and did not understand him enough.
At the moment, Liu Qingyin did nothing.
Even though she was so "sick" that she seemed exhausted and had no time and energy to care about other things.
Song Tingchen still couldn't help but vent his anger on her.
She felt that the current state of Old Madam Song was closely related to her.
How could Liu Qingyin not understand the stiffness in Song Tingchen's tone.
But she just pretended not to hear.
She covered her lips with a handkerchief and coughed several times. "Now that I'm Xiaoxiao's mother, I should take good care of him."
"It's just that I've discovered that the people around Xiaoxiao are too indulgent towards him. If a good child isn't disciplined, he might be corrupted by those around him."
"I want to arrange a few reliable people to take care of Xiaoxiao. What do you think, my husband?"
Song Tingchen frowned.
He originally thought that the people around Song Xiao were all arranged by Su Tan in the past, and Song Xiao had long been accustomed to them. If he suddenly replaced them, he was afraid that Song Xiao would cry and make a fuss.
But seeing that Song Xiao is now extremely naughty, if he is not corrected, I am afraid that this child will be really ruined.
Song Tingchen didn't say much, but just said: "The affairs of the inner courtyard have always been under your management, just take care of it."
"As for Mother, even if you are ill, you should send two people to check on you every day."
Liu Qingyin herself is not in good health.
So sick I could barely get out of bed.
Song Tingchen didn't blame her, nor did he blame her for having to do everything for her parents herself.
However, when she was ill and unable to get out of bed, if she could send someone to visit Old Madam Song's yard.
If she had done so at the beginning, Old Madam Song would not have been bullied like this by that group of mean slaves.
But there is no point in saying more about this now.
Liu Qingyin lowered her eyes.
Of course she would send someone to take a closer look.
I just hope Song Tingchen can accept that his mother will die early under her careful care.
…
With Song Tingchen's permission, Liu Qingyin openly replaced the people in Song Xiao's yard.
Moreover, her excuse was also very plausible, she just said that the young master was badly influenced by this group of people.
The first person to be affected was Song Xiao's personal maid Ruihong, who was sent outside the yard to do the job of making fire.
It is simply a fantasy for a fire-making girl to meet her master unless it is an important matter.
However, Ruihong pursed her lips, raised her head calmly, and said to Liu Qingyin: "This servant has saved enough money during this period of time. Please return the indenture and set me free."
During that period, Song Xiao was determined to throw away everything Su Tan made.
But those things are valuable.
Ruihong picked out something that she and her brother didn't need and pawned it. Who knew that she could actually raise enough money to redeem herself and her brother.
My brother is not in a hurry to leave these two days.
She had originally thought of at least taking care of Song Xiao through the New Year.
But now he was moved out of the hospital without any hesitation.
And Song Xiao had no intention of fighting for himself.
Then Ruihong won’t have to feel any psychological burden.
The most important thing is to get rid of slavery and regain freedom as soon as possible.
Liu Qingyin frowned.
The first thing she did was to transfer Ruihong away because Ruihong was a smart girl.
I'm afraid that if Ruihong stays with Song Xiao for too long, Song Xiao will start to doubt her one day.
But now, since Ruihong has saved enough money to redeem herself and wants to leave the Song family, she naturally will not stop her. But she is a little confused. Where did this girl get the money?
Liu Qingyin couldn't figure it out, but she didn't ask any further questions and just sent the person away.
