Chapter 146 I will send you the divorce letter before you die!
No one expected that the hidden arrow in Pei Yan's sleeve would be shot directly at Su Rui, and no one expected that Mrs. Pei would actually sacrifice herself to block the arrow for Su Rui.
Su Rui was taller than Madam Pei. If the arrow had hit Su Rui, it would only have hit her abdomen and would not have been fatal.
But if it were Mrs. Pei's chest...
Bright red blood quickly bloomed on the clothes of the two people. Mrs. Pei endured the pain and turned her head to look at Pei Yan, whose eyes were full of astonishment and anger, wanting to say something.
But her voice was too soft and Pei Yan couldn't hear it clearly. He could only tell from her lip movements that she seemed to be making excuses.
At this point, not only was she shielded by that witch, she also had to defend her.
Just as crazy as Yunji!
Pei Yan's anger grew even stronger, and he pulled the trigger to shoot another arrow.
Zhuiyue and others were about to pounce when several men dressed as palace soldiers came running in and quickly grabbed Pei Yan. The fat steward who followed in was shocked to see Madam Pei with an arrow in the chest and blood oozing from the corner of her mouth.
But the steward was a shrewd man, and he knew Pei Yan well. He immediately understood what was going on and shouted, "Quick! Bring me back!"
Pei Yan wanted to resist, but after the steward whispered something in his ear, he angrily glared at Madam Pei and shouted, "Good! Good! Good! You've risked your life for her. If you die today, it will be a worthy death. But don't worry, even if you die, I won't let you die in our Pei family. I will send you the divorce letter before you die!"
The manager was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat. He wanted to cover Pei Yan's mouth but didn't dare. He could only urge people to take Pei Yan away quickly.
Then, with a smile on his face, he walked over to Su Rui and said, "Concubine Su, I'm sorry, my master drank a little today and acted crazy. For all the losses caused today, our Pei family will double compensate for it."
Su Rui did not reply, but just looked at the steward, waiting for his next words.
The steward's forehead was sweating when Su Rui looked at him, but he had to bite the bullet and said, "Madam is injured. Please ask Concubine Su to hand her over to us and take her back to the palace for treatment."
"Don't give it to them!"
Before Su Rui could reply, the maidservant beside Madam Pei ran down crying and hugged the unconscious Madam Pei. Like a small animal protecting its master, she roared, "My young lady will not return to your Pei family! Your Pei family is a man-eating den of demons. If my young lady goes there, she will die. It was Pei Yan who hurt my young lady and wanted to divorce her. I...I will never let you take my young lady away!"
Looking at the maid's hoarse appearance, it was obvious that she had long hated the entire Pei family.
It was because Mrs. Pei was obsessed and unwilling to change her mind that she tolerated it again and again.
"Xiaohui, I was just saying that in anger. Madam is seriously injured. Don't delay any longer. Hurry..."
The manager reached out to pull the person away, but Su Rui held out her hand to block him.
"Concubine, you..."
"Deputy Commander Pei just said that he wanted to divorce Miss Yue and not let her die in the Pei family. Everyone heard it. If that's the case, Miss Yue is no longer the wife of the Pei family. As a partner, she was injured, and I should treat her."
The steward wanted to say something, but Su Rui shouted, "Zhuiyue, get the guest out!"
Zhuiyue immediately led his men forward, and the manager was forced to retreat.
Seeing that Xiaohui had already moved Yue Heyun upstairs, Su Rui stood on the stairs and refused to move.
When the master told him to hurry out, the steward had to retreat and go back to find a solution.
The farce came to an end with Yue Heyun's injury. The shop manager and steward began to deal with all matters, while Su Rui upstairs had already called a doctor for Yue Heyun.
After removing the arrow and treating the wound, Xiao Hui saw the doctor's face was heavy, and she hurriedly asked, "Doctor, how is my daughter? Is she okay?"
The doctor didn't dare to speak and could only look at Su Rui inquiringly.
"That's what the doctor said."
With the master's word, the doctor no longer had so many reservations. He glanced at Yue Heyun lying on the bed and said, "Although the crossbow arrow pierced her chest, it fortunately didn't damage her heart. However... this girl is completely desperate and has already made up her mind to die. I'm afraid... I'm incompetent. If I could call in the imperial physician, perhaps she could still be saved."
"Imperial physician? To hire an imperial physician, you need a badge, and only the Pei family..."
Before Xiaohui could finish her painful and helpless words, Zhuiyue appeared outside the door.
He stood outside the door, hesitant to speak.
"What's wrong?" Su Rui asked?
Zhuiyue glanced at Yue Heyun lying on the couch, paused, and said calmly, "The Pei family sent... a letter of divorce."
Su Rui didn't expect that the divorce letter would really come, and come so quickly.
It can be seen that the Pei family has given up on Yue Heyun.
Even though Yue Heyun said how good her parents-in-law were to her, they were only concerned with their own interests. No matter how good they were, could they be as good as they were to their own son?
"They! They're going too far!" Xiaohui sobbed, completely not knowing what to do.
"It's their business if they go too far. What you should do now is to save your young lady. The Pei family is unreliable. If the Yue family is willing to help your young lady, it's not impossible to ask for an imperial physician."
Su Rui's words reminded Xiaohui.
Yes, the Yue family!
Their uncle is in Beijing right now and hasn't left yet.
"That……"
"Don't worry, I'm still using your shop. I don't want her to die."
With Su Rui's words, Xiaohui put aside her last bit of worry and ran out to seek help.
Zhuiyue also retreated at the right time, leaving only Su Rui and Yue Heyun, who was close to death, in the room.
Su Rui didn't want to get involved in such trivial matters.
But she didn't expect Yue Heyun to sacrifice herself to save her.
Perhaps Yue Heyun understood what Pei Yan had, so when she saw him raise his hand, she knew what he was going to do.
Maybe it was to protect Pei Yan, but the fact was that he did save her.
Looking at Yue Heyun again at this moment, she actually had the feeling of hallucinating her past life.
It is also like this, holding on to that illusory hope, and not giving up until you hit the wall.
Therefore, she understood better why Yue Heyun was heartbroken at this moment.
"It's so worthless that you died like this." Su Rui walked closer, sat on the edge of the bed, and reached out to hold Yue Heyun's already cold hand.
"For a man like this, you've even forgotten who you are. How pathetic! If you don't live for yourself, wouldn't your life be in vain? Could it be that apart from that heartless and wicked man, you have no other pleasures or pursuits? Can you not live without him? Why don't you think that maybe, free from prison, you could live a better life? Or even, do you really love him?"
As the last sentence fell, Su Rui felt the fingers in her hand move slightly.
Or maybe it was an instinctive twitch, or something else.
But these were all she should and could say. As for what happened next, that was Yue Heyun's own fate.
"Snow!" Yue Heyun cried out softly. Su Rui looked up and saw that she had her eyes tightly closed. She said with a painful expression, "It's snowing so heavily. It's so cold, so cold. Mom, I'm so cold."
Snow?
Su Rui looked out the window and saw that the snow was indeed getting heavier.
Falling down in large numbers and densely packed.
What a heavy snow!
She remembered!
