Chun'er was too nervous to speak, and Qiu'er, though also terrified, tremblingly explained the whole process of the lady's fainting to the steward and Ji Liao, the head of the Ji family:
"At that time, the eldest... young master suddenly opened his eyes and woke up. Someone went to tell the madam. When the madam came over, the eldest young master was still smiling at her. Suddenly... suddenly..."
The butler asked anxiously, "Suddenly...what happened suddenly? Qiu'er, tell me quickly!"
Qiu'er took a breath and continued, "Suddenly, the young master started trembling all over, and then he fell into a deep sleep. Madam was watching closely when it seemed that he suddenly couldn't catch his breath and fainted..."
Upon hearing this, the butler understood that the lady's emotions had fluctuated greatly, from tears of joy to tears of grief.
Loneliness was also causing her distress. Her son, Ji Wuchen, had been bedridden for years, like a vegetable (a living dead person). As a result, her wife had been practicing vegetarianism, chanting Buddhist scriptures, and praying for many years. She was often overwhelmed with worry.
Now our family is no longer a family.

Wait, he seemed to have missed something. Thinking carefully, he suddenly remembered the maid Qiu'er mentioning his son? His son had opened his eyes? Or had he fallen asleep again? Had he heard correctly?
Lonely and incoherent, he said, "Butler...butler, did I hear that right? You were just saying that the young master woke up? He opened his eyes, right?"
The butler nodded firmly, his tone resolute, "Master, you heard me right. It's true that the eldest young master did wake up and even opened his eyes. I also heard Qiu'er say it."
In a moment of despair, he thought, "There's still a glimmer of hope. I'll quickly send someone to fetch the family doctor back and have him examine the young master!"
"good".
A flurry of activity ensued, leaving the family doctor speechless. "Is this ever going to end? Doesn't he have any dignity?!"
Why are the servants of the Ji family so rude? They're either dragging and pulling him, forcing him into a corner, or carrying him around. Can't they just talk to him properly?
Ouch!
They've finally arrived. If they hadn't, he would have been dragged to his death by these young men.
“Mr. Ji…Uncle Ji, why did you bring me back again? Can’t you talk things out properly beforehand? Why do you have to make this a big deal out of it?”
Ji Liao didn't speak, but simply glanced at him silently.
The family doctor immediately jumped to his senses. What was wrong with him?! Had he gone mad? Was he out of his mind? Daring to talk back to his breadwinner? Did he not want his salary and wanted to tighten his belt in the future?!
Thinking of this, the family doctor immediately said sensibly, "Mr. Ji... what brings you here? Please tell me, and I will do my utmost to help you."
Ignoring his extraordinary words, Ji Liao coldly asked, "Dr. Niu, please examine my son's body. How long will it take for him to wake up? What are the chances of him waking up?"
Son? Eldest son?!
Didn't we have a check-up last time? To put it nicely, the young master will probably be bedridden for the rest of his life. To put it bluntly, the young master is only hanging on by a thread, half-dead. It's better to make arrangements sooner rather than later.
However, he didn't say that to Ji Fu, after all, he still valued his life, even though his name was Niu Chongtian.
Although he can be a bit reckless at times, he still knows how to avoid trouble and seek good fortune.
Mrs. Ji's health isn't very good. If he said that, the Ji family would probably have to prepare three coffins: one for the eldest son, one for Mrs. Ji, and the last one... guess whose?
