Chapter 62 It Actually Came True
After eating and drinking, the two took a shower and went to bed.
Tonight they still maintained a distance of one foot and did not infringe on each other.
Maybe because she was used to it, Xiao Xixi was not as nervous as before and fell asleep quickly. The terrifying scene of being chased by a tiger did not appear in her dream again.
She slept comfortably until dawn.
In the residence of General Zhongwu.
Xue struggled to get up.
She had been in a coma since she fell into the water. Doctor Duan came yesterday afternoon and used acupuncture to revive her, and also left her a prescription.
She took the medicine and slept for a night. She felt more energetic today and wanted to get up and see her little daughter.
Xiao Lingfeng quickly stopped her.
"Madam, you are still very weak. Doctor Duan has told you to rest well. You can't move around. If there is anything, just tell the servants to do it."
Xue said weakly, "How is Xiaolan?"
Xiao Lingfeng sat beside the bed and hugged her, comforting her: "Xiao Lan woke up a little later than you. She woke up again in the middle of the night yesterday. She is still sleeping now. There are nannies and maids watching over her. She will be fine."
Xue leaned on him, her eyes red.
"It's all my fault. If I hadn't taken good care of Xiao Lan, she wouldn't have fallen into the river with me."
"Don't think like that. You are Xiaolan's biological mother. No one in this world cares about her safety more than you. You are more sad than anyone else when something like this happens. Fortunately, you and Xiaolan are both fine. The imperial physician said that you only need to rest well for a while and you will recover. You should be more open-minded and get well soon."
Xue nodded with tears in her eyes: "Yes."
Xiao Lingfeng had someone bring some medicine and fed it to her. He then helped her lie down and covered her with a quilt.
"You have a good rest. I'll go see Xiaolan."
"Um."
Xue watched her husband leave.
She lay quietly in bed, but couldn't fall asleep.
The day before yesterday, the Duke of Huguo's grandson held a full-month banquet, and Xue took her little daughter to congratulate him.
There is a stone bridge in the Duke's Mansion. The river under the bridge runs through the entire Duke's Mansion. If you want to enter the backyard, you must cross the bridge.
When the maid who was in charge of leading the way walked across the bridge, nothing happened. But when Xue was taking her little daughter across the bridge, for some reason a strong wind suddenly blew.
The little Xiao Zhilan was blown back two steps by the wind, his feet slipped, and he fell straight back!
Xue was so frightened that she tried to pull her away in a hurry, but she couldn't stand steadily.
They both fell into the river.
Neither of them could swim, so they could only struggle desperately in the water.
Even in her dying struggle, Xue still wanted to pull her little daughter's arm.
But Xiao Zhilan's feet were entangled by the water plants in the river and she couldn't get free. She choked on the water and her breathing became increasingly difficult.
When the people from the Duke's Mansion rescued them, Xue was still somewhat conscious, but Xiao Zhilan was already unconscious.
The mother and daughter were lucky enough to survive this time.
Xue still feels scared when she recalls the feeling of falling into the water.
She and her young daughter were nearly drowned.
Xue couldn't help but think of Xiao Xixi's warning to her -
"Mother and sister, please don't cross the bridge these days, remember!"
At that time, Xue just thought that Xiao Xixi had a problem with her brain. Why did she say such things for no reason?
She didn't take these words to heart at all, and even threw away the amulet that Xiao Xixi gave her.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Xixi's words actually came true.
