Chapter 62 Is this a blessing in disguise?
When Nan Yan woke up again, the dull pain in her chest had eased a lot. She opened her eyes and saw herself lying on a bed, with snow-white curtains lingering around her like clouds.
She was still a little confused when she heard a gentle voice beside her ear——
"Are you awake?"
She turned around and saw a pretty young woman sitting by the bed, looking at her with a smile, holding a porcelain bowl in her hand.
Nan Yan was a little confused and said softly: "You——"
The young woman said softly, "You fainted in front of my house, and my uncle brought you in."
“…”
"Girl, are you feeling better?"
“…”
"You have injuries on your body, especially on your chest. This bowl of medicine can invigorate blood circulation and dissipate blood stasis. Drinking it will be beneficial to you."
Although Nan Yan had not yet woken up from her coma, this beautiful young woman spoke so gently and her eyes were as gentle as water that it was impossible to question her. She was helped to sit up obediently and drank the medicine in the bowl.
The young woman smiled and said, "That's good. Just drink the medicine obediently and you will get better soon."
The bitter medicine finally sobered Nan Yan up completely. She coughed twice and asked, "Excuse me, where is this place? Are you—"
"This is the Jane family's mansion."
"The Jian family?" Nan Yan said immediately, "That's—that's Mr. Jian Tongguang, right?"
The young woman smiled and said, "Exactly. I am his eldest daughter-in-law. My name is Jiahe."
Nan Yan was stunned.
She still vaguely remembered that she was turned away by the Jian family before she fainted. Why is it now - is it because she fainted?
Is this a blessing in disguise?
She was still thinking, but the bitter taste in her mouth made her feel uncomfortable. At this moment, a clear child's voice rang in her ears: "Sister."
Looking down, she saw a boy of about five or six years old standing by the bed. He had a chubby face, big round eyes, and a longevity lock around his neck. He looked very cute. He held a piece of sesame candy in his hand and brought it to her mouth, saying eagerly, "Eat some candy."
Nan Yan opened her mouth subconsciously and the candy was delivered into her mouth.
A sweet feeling suddenly spread.
Jia He smiled and stroked the boy's head, saying, "This is my son. My father-in-law hasn't named him yet, so let's call him Xiao Zhui."
Nan Yan couldn't help laughing when she heard the name. This was probably because a nickname was easier to keep. Even Mr. Jian's grandson had such a nickname.
However, this little pig didn't mind his name at all. He just smiled and said to Nan Yan, "It's sweet, right? Every time I drink medicine, I ask my mother for a piece of candy, and then my mouth won't be bitter."
Nan Yan had never expected to see such a gentle young lady and such a lovely young master from the Jian family on their first meeting. She couldn't help but feel a growing fondness for this family. However, she immediately remembered her duty and asked, "Young Lady, may I ask—where is His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan?"
Mrs. Jiahe smiled and said, "That distinguished guest is talking to my father-in-law."
"oh……"
"If you want to go over there, I can ask my uncle to take you."
After she finished speaking, she lowered her head and said to Xiao Zhui, "Xiao Zhui, go call your uncle and tell him that the girl has woken up."
Xiao Zhui was lying on the bed watching Nan Yan. When he heard this, he immediately ran out and shouted, "Uncle, that beautiful sister is awake."
