Chapter 361 Today, I think I saw you
The sky had become completely dark, and the sunset rain had stopped, leaving only raindrops dripping from the eaves from time to time.
The night wind blew, and the lanterns in the corridor swayed slightly, casting flickering light and shadows.
As the group entered the house, they smelled a faint scent of calming incense.
At the end of July, the summer heat had dissipated, but it was still a bit warm. Cui Si was a little afraid of heat recently, so she kept an ice basin next to the dormitory. When the ice melted, waves of coolness spread.
The room is cool and comfortable, neither too cold nor too hot.
Cui Si was covered with a soft quilt and looked at the visitor through the dense gauze curtain.
"Mrs. Cui is well."
"Doctor Lin is fine." Cui Si lowered her eyes and said slowly, "Thank you, Doctor Lin, for making this trip. Actually, I am in good health too. I am sorry to have caused you all to worry."
"If there's nothing wrong, you'll feel relieved after taking a look." Doctor Lin was very kind to Cui Si. When he saw someone bringing a chair, he sat down.
After washing her hands with warm water and wiping them clean with a towel, she asked Cui Si to stretch out her hand. "Please, Madam Cui, stretch out your hand."
After he finished speaking, Cui Si seemed not to have heard him, and stared blankly at the back of him through the gauze curtain.
Doctor Lin looked back and saw only a young man carrying a medicine box standing behind him, and no one else.
"Madam Cui," Doctor Lin called out again, "what's wrong with you?"
Cui Si finally came back to her senses, retracted her gaze, shook her head and said, "Sorry, I was a little dazed."
She stretched out her hand and asked Doctor Lin to help her take her pulse. When his cold fingers touched her pulse, she subconsciously frowned, but did not retract her hand.
After a while, Doctor Lin withdrew his hand and said to her, "Madam Cui is in excellent health, and the child is also well. However, you still need to worry less and get angry less."
Cui Si nodded: "I will pay attention."
"By the way, Doctor Lin is here today. Do you know how Madam Zhou is doing?"
Doctor Lin shook his head. "I don't know the details, but judging from what Doctor Zhang said, her life is not in danger. However, it is a physical injury, so she needs to rest for a few days. If Madam Cui wants to know the details, she can ask Doctor Zhang to come over and ask."
"Okay." Cui Si nodded. Given the current situation of the Wang family, it would probably be impossible for Madam Zhou to spend money to nourish her body during her period. If necessary, she would help.
It's just a pity for the child.
If she hadn't gone to the Wang family, perhaps Madam Zhou and the child wouldn't have suffered this disaster. Although it was her fault, there was cause and effect. If she could help, she would certainly do her best.
"If you have nothing else to say, Madam Cui, I will take my leave now."
Cui Si nodded and said, "You go back first. The young man behind you must stay for a while."
As she spoke, she looked quietly at the bed curtains, very calm and indifferent.
Doctor Lin was startled. "What's wrong? Did this kid do something wrong to anger Madam Cui? He's still young and doesn't understand many things. If he's done anything wrong, please be lenient, Madam Cui, and let me teach him a lesson."
"Nothing." Cui Si shook her head. "Doctor Lin, you're worrying too much. I just thought he looked like a friend of mine, so I left him to say a few words."
"I see." Doctor Lin breathed a sigh of relief. "Then Madam Cui, if you want to say something, just hurry up. I will wait in the outer courtyard and then go back with him."
Doctor Lin stood up and said to the young man, "You talk to Madam Cui for a few minutes. I'll wait for you outside."
After saying this, Doctor Lin walked out, and the room slowly became quiet.
The sky and the earth were dark, the lights were flickering, and the light and shadow in the house flickered. A gust of wind blew, bringing a coolness into the house, making the stuffy air cool.
Cui Si stood up and leaned against the head of the bed, looking at the people outside through the bed curtains. She scratched a corner of the quilt with her fingers, and the emotions in her heart were so complicated that they were hard to describe.
It's hard to describe what the feeling is. There is the joy of reunion after a long separation, as well as regret and sadness, all mixed together in a mess, like an overturned jar of five flavors, with sour, sweet, bitter, spicy and salty all in it, forming a mixture of sour, bitter, sweet, salty and spicy.
"I seemed to have seen you this morning..." She retracted her gaze, lowered her eyelids, and looked at the pattern of peonies and auspicious clouds embroidered on the quilt. She couldn't tell how thin the silk thread must have been, and how it had been embroidered stitch by stitch.
In fact, sometimes you don’t need to look at some people’s faces, you can recognize them just by looking at their figure or their backs.
The other person stood there for a long time, murmured "hmm", and then said: "I saw it too."
Cui Si blinked, then looked up at him: "Where have you been these days?"
"After leaving Pingzhou City, I went to Yuanzhou, and later, I came to Yunzhou City." He walked over and sat down in the seat where Old Doctor Lin had sat before, and said to her, "Stretch out your hand, I'll show you."
Cui Si paused, feeling a little embarrassed and guilty. She sat there, not daring to move or say a word.
She didn't want to, so Jiang Cinian didn't force her. He just asked her, "I wanted to come see you before, but it wouldn't make any difference whether I saw you or not. It might even get you into trouble, so I gave up after thinking about it."
Some people in this world are just not destined to be together. Even if they meet once, they always worry about whether they will bring trouble to each other.
"Actually, I have a question for you," he said.
"You ask." Cui Si nodded.
"You're not by his side, and you didn't go back to Xianyang City. Why did you come to Yunzhou City to give birth? And you haven't even gotten married yet..." He paused for a moment and asked her, "Did he bully you?"
Cui Si immediately shook her head and denied it: "He didn't bully me. This is my own wish. I just want a child to accompany me. It has nothing to do with him."
"As for why we don't get married, being his wife is too tiring. It requires too much to bear. I don't want to."
Jiang Cinian frowned.
He felt that this was inappropriate, but since it was her own wish, he could only respect her.
"If you think this is fine, then that's fine. Just be sure to take care of your health. You returned to Yunzhou City from Piaomiao City earlier, right? You must never do something like this again."
Cui Si nodded: "I understand."
When they met again, it was another awkward scene. Although Cui Si did feel a little embarrassed in her heart, she relaxed after a few words.
They have always been like this, respecting and supporting each other, and sincerely hoping that the other party can live a happy life.
Even though they can't be husband and wife, they are still close friends in life.
Jiang Cinian asked her again: "He still doesn't know that you are pregnant, right?"
