The cold war between Song Luan and Zhao Nanyu was simply one-sided on her part, as she ignored him much. However, Zhao Nanyu was still the same as before, coming to her room every day after returning from the Dali Temple. Even though they didn't say a few words, he knew that he couldn't see her good face, but he didn't get angry.
Song Luan felt that the current situation was pretty good. She was living a more relaxed life than in the past few months. She was no longer treading on thin ice and trembling with fear. Her body was already like this. All she could do was take the medicine well. As for Zhao Nanyu, she could do whatever he wanted! She won't serve anymore.
However, the male protagonist is worthy of being the male protagonist. He has a strong aura and is very intimidating on weekdays. Even if Song Luan has given up on himself and is planning to give up clinging to this unreliable thigh of his, he dare not act too much in front of him.
When the man looked at her with a smile, Song Luan's heart tightened, cold sweat broke out on the palms and back of her hands, and all the humiliating words she had prepared were swallowed back into her throat.
Song Luan originally disliked the bitterness of Chinese medicine and had never been willing to take it properly, but this time, after listening to Doctor Hou, he was the most obedient person when drinking the medicine, and he didn't need anyone to urge him or ask for candied fruit. He pinched his nose, tilted his neck back, and gulped it all down in one breath.
The world is so beautiful, she wants to live two more years.
I don't know who told Shi Ge'er about her recent illness. When Zhao Chao taught him to read, he was absent-minded and his handwriting was not very good.
Zhao Chao was not unreasonable. His nephew was obedient and sensible, a well-behaved little baby. He also liked Shi Ge'er very much. Even when Shi Ge'er made mistakes or did not study seriously, he could not bear to punish him.
This time, Zhao Chao did not make an exception. He put away the paper and pen for him, held the child on the chair in his arms, and asked, "What's wrong? Are you not concentrating on practicing calligraphy? Are you hungry or tired?"
Shi Ge'er was very cold to strangers, but he was very soft and cute when facing familiar relatives. He hugged Zhao Chao's neck with a sad face. He said, "Mom seems to be sick. Dad didn't let me go to see her last night. I'm a little worried."
His father didn't let him go last night, and he didn't agree to go this morning either.
Shi Ge'er listened to his father very much and rarely resisted or raised any objections. But this time he really couldn't hold it in any longer and wanted to go see his mother.
Zhao Chao was stunned. He didn't even realize that Song Luan had unknowingly left a very important place in Shi Ge'er's heart.
To be honest, he hated this woman, Song Luan. Zhao Chao was used to wearing a mask on his face, so no one could tell how deep his disgust was. He always thought that Song Luan's life or death was not important. He could even say that it would be better if Song Luan died. She was a disaster, and a vicious one at that.
She was willing to beat her son when he was only two or three years old. There is no other mother like her in the world.
But now it seems that Shi Ge'er likes her very much. In just a few months, the child's heart is completely towards her. If she died like this, Shi Ge'er would be sad for a long time without a mother.
Zhao Chao touched his head and asked, "Do you want me to take you to see your mother?"
"Yeah." Shi Ge'er leaned on his shoulder and nodded vigorously.
Zhao Chao felt that Song Luan was really delicate and would get sick easily. Normally, the amount of "Tianqing" in her body was not enough to cause an attack, and the poison prepared by his master was always milder than his. If his poison was used, Song Luan would have died long ago and only bones would be left.
Zhao Chao couldn't bear to see him sad, "Okay then, I'll take you there."
The second person Song Luan disliked the most in the Zhao family was Zhao Chao. Zhao Chao, with a smiling face but a dagger hidden inside, did not look like a good person. As the saying goes, he may smile on the surface but want to kill you in his heart.
She knew that Zhao Chao hated her too. In the original book, Zhao Chao was at least ranked fourth among the male characters. He could come in handy at critical moments. In the female-oriented Mary Sue novel about a domineering boss, the heroine was always liked by many men at the same time.
"The Powerful Minister" follows the same routine. The innocent heroine attracts the sympathy of men from all walks of life with her fragility. After meeting the heroine twice, Zhao Chao falls in love with her.
His identity as the fourth male lead and the male lead's younger brother destined him to not get the female lead. Even so, Zhao Chao also made good use of the word "affection" and never married for the sake of the female lead.
When Song Luan was reading the book, she felt that the author was not very smart. The male supporting characters in the book all remained single for the sake of the female protagonist. She was so attracted that she once wanted to give up writing the book, but she finally held back.
Song Luan was about to take the medicine when she saw the little carrot head come in. His beautiful grape-like eyes looked at her brightly. Shi Ge'er's eyes were full of worry. He called her softly, "Mother."
Song Luan put down the bowl in her hand and gently pinched his cheek, "Why did you come here? Don't you have class today?"
Shi Ge'er threw away his shyness and seemed to be about to cry. The emotion in a child's eyes was the purest. He looked at her eagerly and said, "Daddy told me that you were sick. I...I am a little worried."
Song Luan felt warm in her heart and astringent in her chest. Shi Ge'er was a really good child. She would never be willing to abandon him in the future.
Song Luan is an orphan without a father or a mother in modern times. She grew up alone and grew up alone. Most of the time she is alone and keeps a certain distance from her friends. It seems that she has never been cared for so sincerely.
Song Luan's eyes turned red and she smiled at him, "It's okay, mother will be well soon."
She didn't know how long it would take to get better, but the heart palpitations were very uncomfortable. It hurts. It hurts so much.
Shi Ge'er looked up and asked in a baby voice, "Mother, is the medicine very bitter? Do you want some candy?"
Every time he had a fever, the medicine he took was very bitter. After he finished taking the medicine, his father would reward him with two candies. Shi Ge'er took out the candies from his pocket and spread out his little hand. In his palm lay four candies wrapped in crumpled candy wrappers. "Eat it and it won't be bitter anymore."
This was the money he had saved. His father always gave him very little each time because he was afraid that he would damage his teeth.
Waves of warmth flowed into Song Luan's chest. Oh, my baby son is so heartwarming.
She couldn't help but kiss him, "Keep it for yourself, mother is not afraid of hardship."
Shi Ge'er was very stubborn and insisted on handing it to her, "You eat it."
The son took after his father and was very stubborn about some things. Song Luan had no choice but to take a candy and swallow it. "One is enough for me."
Shige shook his head, his black and white eyes staring at her eagerly, "No, you have to eat three to avoid bitterness."
Song Luan had no choice but to eat the remaining two candies from his little palm. "Is this okay?"
Shige nodded, "Yeah, yeah, it won't be bitter anymore."
Zhao Chao stood by the door and looked at the two of them quietly without making a sound to disturb them. The golden sunlight shone through the window panes onto her shoulders. The woman lowered her head, her facial features were outstanding, and the jasmine-colored dress made her look even whiter.
Zhao Chao found that his second sister-in-law's temperament was better than before, gentle and calm.
Before coming, he wondered if Song Luan was pretending to be sick? Looking at her pale face, it certainly doesn't look like she's pretending.
The last time he took her pulse, her complexion was not as bad as it is today. An outsider could not tell, but as a doctor he could always see the clues.
Song Luan was weak and her body had suffered a lot of damage, as if something was slowly devouring her vitality.
Song Luan seemed to notice his gaze, raised her head and looked at him with a frown, coughed twice, and said, "Third brother is here too."
Zhao Chao smiled at everyone and said, "I brought Shi Ge'er here."
"Thank you."
"No need. I saw that Shi Ge'er was very worried about my second sister-in-law, so I had to bring him to see her. I was relieved to see that my second sister-in-law was fine."
Zhao Chao still holds the same position: it doesn’t matter whether Song Luan is dead or alive, it’s better if he dies. Which man in the Zhao family has she not seduced?
First it was A-Yan, then the eldest brother.
Death is too easy for her.
Song Luan gave a fake smile and replied stiffly: "Thank you for your concern."
Zhao Chao waved to Shi Ge'er and said, "Let's go. Now that you have read it, it's time to go back to the study and practice calligraphy."
Song Luan got angry when she heard this. The contempt in Zhao Chao's eyes aroused her anger. She hugged Shi Ge'er and sneered, "Let's not practice today."
"Second sister-in-law, this..."
"Ouch, my heart starts to hurt again." Song Luan was too lazy to talk nonsense with him, so he covered his chest and started pretending.
Shi Ge'er was worried to begin with, and when he heard her say that it hurt, his face turned pale. He said to Zhao Chao, "Uncle, I want to be with my mother."
Zhao Chao coldly watched her acting. It was rare for her to show her emotions nakedly on her face. With a mocking smile in the corners of his eyes, he said, "Second sister-in-law is really capable."
Song Luan ignored him and just pretended to be in pain.
Zhao Chao was so angry with her but helpless, he walked away in anger.
As soon as he left, Song Luan stopped pretending, but Shi Ge'er was obviously frightened by her, and golden beans dropped one after another.
Song Luan felt distressed and guilty, and coaxed him softly, "Brother Shi, don't be afraid, I'm fine."
Shi Ge'er wiped away his tears silently, hiccuping and saying, "I'm scared."
He was afraid that his mother would leave him.
Song Luan comforted him, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, mother is always here."
Shi Ge'er fell asleep in her arms while crying.
Song Luan gently carried him to the bed, took off his shoes, covered him with the quilt, and wiped the tears from his face with a handkerchief.
Facing this little face that looked similar to Zhao Nanyu, she sighed and turned to leave the inner room.
Just then a maid came to report that Miss Yang came to visit her.
Song Luan remembered her, Yang Ruoyun, the third daughter of the Yang family, one of the scheming female supporting characters in the original book.
Song Luan thought about it and guessed that at this time, Yang Ruoyun should be here to sow discord between her and Zhao Nanyu.
After all, everyone in the Zhao family noticed that the two of them had been in a cold war recently.
There was no way Yang Ruoyun would let go of such a good opportunity. She sowed discord, made her throw a tantrum at Zhao Nanyu, and then caused the couple to drift apart.
Song Luan wanted to give her a thumbs up.
Of course she had to follow Yang Ruoyun's wishes.
She doesn't want this male protagonist, whoever wants him can have him.
