Chapter 153: Mother, please don’t leave me!
Liu Qingyin was temporarily locked up in the woodshed and kept under strict guard.
Almost all the doctors in the capital were guarding Song Xiao, but Liu Qingyin's knife was too deep, and Song Xiao's condition was very dangerous. The doctors were helpless and kept wiping the cold sweat from their foreheads.
"This...this young master's injuries are too severe. We are not proficient in the art and dare not rashly treat him. General Song, please seek help from someone else!"
Most doctors didn't dare to take the risk and just left with their medicine boxes.
Song Xiao was dying. He tightly grasped Song Tingchen's hand and called out incoherently, "Dad..."
"I want my mother..."
"I want my mother..."
As he spoke, he shed tears in a daze and held Song Tingchen's hand tightly.
Song Tingchen felt a pang of pain in his heart.
He had already sent a letter to the palace and asked someone to invite the imperial physician.
But Song Xiao is now in tears and looks like he is dying, which is really heartbreaking.
Song Tingchen gently patted the back of Song Xiao's hand, "Xiaoxiao, don't cry."
"Don't be afraid, I'll go and ask about your mother's whereabouts."
No matter how angry Su Tan was, her own son Song Xiao had already stepped half a foot into the underworld. No matter how angry she was, she should calm down now.
In the past, he and Song Xiao were the ones who wronged Su Tan.
Su Tan can vent his anger however he wants.
But now, Song Xiao needs her.
The imperial physician arrived soon.
Perhaps it was because the palace physicians were very experienced, and after working for nearly three hours, Song Xiao's condition was finally under control. He no longer continued to bleed and was able to take medicine.
Song Xiao suddenly developed a high fever without any warning.
"Mother..."
"Mother..."
"Mother, I was wrong. I'm sorry..."
"Mother... please don't leave me..."
"Mother, I beg you, please don't leave me..."
He kept calling out "A'niang" in a daze, and kept asking Su Tan to leave him.
If it had been three years earlier, he would have cried so heartbreakingly, and looked so sad when calling mother, I'm afraid Su Tan would not have been able to bear it no matter what.
Too bad it's not three years ago.
After the fever finally subsided, Song Xiao's pillow was already wet with tears.
He is still half awake and has not really escaped danger.
However, from beginning to end, no one from the Su family came to see him.
He didn't even send a servant to ask about Song Xiao's situation.
Song Tingchen sat in front of Song Xiao's window all night.
At dawn, Song Tingchen delivered the invitation to the Su family.
Unfortunately, the post I submitted fell into oblivion and received no response.
Song Tingchen finally couldn't sit still anymore, so he went to the Su family's house in person and knelt at the gate for a long time.
This gave the Su family's doorman a big shock.
The concierge was completely stunned, not knowing what General Song had done today. The corners of his mouth twitched wildly, "General Song, what are you doing? Get up quickly!"
By kneeling at the door of their Su family, are you trying to expose the injustice of the entire Su family?
As expected of a member of the Song family, they are so scheming and vicious!
Frost and snow covered Song Tingchen. He raised his cold eyes to look at the doorman and repeated his request, "I want to see Su Tan."
concierge:"……"
The concierge's expression was indescribable. "General Song, it's not that we don't want you to see the young lady, it's just...it's just that the young lady really isn't at home!"
"We really don't know where the young lady has gone. When she returns, we will send someone to inform you as soon as possible!"
Although some of the news from the Song family was leaked, it was not fully leaked in the end.
He only knew that Song Tingchen's mother was dead, killed by Liu Qingyin.
It was almost pushed onto Song Xiao.
But by chance, the photo stone left by his eldest daughter saved Song Xiao's life at the critical moment.
Men Fangxin wondered if the Song family had finally understood how good the eldest lady was after this incident, but what was the use of that? The eldest lady was really not at home!
Song Tingchen suddenly felt an indescribable suffocating feeling in his heart. He was bathed in the wind and snow, and his brows seemed to be dyed pale by the snow.
"Please tell Su Tan that Song Xiao is in critical condition and that only Su Tan can save him."
"If he is so cruel as to abandon a child like this, then I have nothing to say."
concierge:"……"
The corners of the doorman's mouth twitched wildly, and for a moment he didn't know what expression to use to treat Song Tingchen.
I've said it many times, the eldest lady is not here, the eldest lady is not here!
Doesn’t this guy surnamed Song understand what people are saying?
The concierge took a deep breath, fearing that if he continued to explain, Song Tingchen would make him look like a fool who couldn't understand what people were saying. He simply said, "I'll let the young lady and Miss Cui know. If you have anything to say, you should talk to them."
…
Song Tingchen got what he wished for and finally met Gu Mingzhu and Cui Wan.
However, he still failed to set foot into the Su family.
Gu Mingzhu and Cui Wan found a teahouse and booked it, and will clear it out today.
Cui Wan's face was expressionless, but Gu Mingzhu asked with a smile, "Why is General Song here today? Has Young Master Song's injury improved?"
"Speaking of which, I just remembered today that there is a thousand-year-old ginseng in the warehouse that His Majesty once gave to the Su family."
"General Song, please take this back. It's a token of our appreciation."
Gu Mingzhu smiled, and she was clearly not that unkind, but the words she said were chilling.
She called Song Tingchen General Song, which was nothing.
But she also called Song Xiao "Young Master Song".
What a great phrase, Young Master Song!
She was clearly Song Xiao's aunt, but judging from her attitude, she seemed to treat Song Xiao as a stranger.
Gu Mingzhu is Su Tan's second sister-in-law.
He has a very close relationship with Su Tan.
Her attitude largely confirmed Su Tan's attitude.
Song Tingchen's heart grew colder and colder, but he also knew that he had no right to say anything reproachful here.
"I've let Su Tan down for what happened in the past."
"It's just that Xiaoxiao is still young after all. He is easily deceived when he is young. It's not that he doesn't have Su Tan, his biological mother, in his heart. Now that he is sick, he doesn't want to see anyone except his mother."
Song Tingchen bowed to Cui Wan and said, "Miss Cui, you must know Su Tan's whereabouts. Please let her know about Xiaoxiao's recent situation."
"After all, Xiaoxiao is the child she gave birth to after ten months of pregnancy."
There was even a hint of earnestness in Song Tingchen's expression, which was very different from his usual matter-of-fact demeanor.
Cui Wan looked at it and felt both amused and helpless.
She took a sip of tea absentmindedly.
"Really? His life is in danger? It sounds very serious, but why did it happen to me? What does it have to do with me?"
"My junior sister is traveling. Her whereabouts are unknown. I don't know exactly where she is. General Song has asked the wrong person."
Song Tingchen's fingers tightened.
Seeing Cui Wan's mocking look, his eyes dimmed slightly. Although he knew that Cui Wan was standing up for Su Tan, he still said, "Miss Cui, Song Xiao is her biological son!"
"At this time, please put aside your personal grudges. I won't force Su Tan to come or not, but at least let her know."
Cui Wan listened to this without any change in expression. She just continued nonchalantly, "General Song, what you said makes sense."
"But if you had listened to even a single word my junior sister said back then, how could you have ended up like this?"
She looked sarcastic, "Things change, and people always have to pay the price for their choices."
"Your Song family is like this."
"Song Xiao is the same."
"What's more—"
Cui Wan's expression turned slightly cold, and she put down the teacup in her hand expressionlessly. "Besides, why should my junior sister come back just because Song Xiao is dying?"
"My junior sister worked so hard for him in the past. Just because she wanted to protect this ungrateful person like him, her life was in danger several times. When they were getting divorced, even a random ghost could have taken her life."
"If it weren't for...if it weren't for someone protecting her, the grass on her grave would be two feet high!"
Cui Wan finished speaking.
He then poured a cup of boiling hot tea heavily on Song Tingchen's face.
