Zhao Qiuyi's yard was dead silent. Shen Qinglei had dark circles under his eyes after staying up all night, and Zhao Ruyun also looked listless.
"What did the doctor say today?" Shen Qingwu asked the yawning Shen Qinglei.
"She managed to save her life, but the situation is not optimistic. She cannot accept her current situation and is very emotional." Shen Qinglei couldn't help but yawn again.
Sun Yimo thoughtfully took out a small handkerchief and handed it over, "Brother Qinglei."
Sun Yimo, who changed into men's clothes, had a red birthmark on the left side of her cheek that covered half of her face. The eye-catching birthmark stole the attention from her original appearance at first glance.
"Thank you." Shen Qinglei took it. "She's very emotional, which is not good for her recovery."
Shen Qingwu patted his shoulder and said, "Go and have a rest. There are servants guarding us."
"Sister, will father be back soon?" Shen Qinglei had already turned around, but couldn't help but turned back and asked.
"Yeah, it's almost there." Shen Qingwu nodded.
Shen Qinglei lowered his head, said nothing, and walked back to his room with heavy steps.
In the room, Zhao Qiuyi was still sleeping after drinking the calming soup, with a white cloth covering her eyes, and blood still seeping out.
"Do you feel relieved when you see her become like this?" Zhao Ruyun was wiping Zhao Qiuyi's face. She glanced at Shen Qingwu, continued her hand movements, and asked calmly.
"Yes." Shen Qingwu did not deny it.
"Since I was little, I have always thought she was my biological mother. Even though I am mentally retarded, I still wonder why my biological mother dotes on you more than me."
"I also wonder why she always turns a blind eye when you snatch my things, push, hit or scold me. Is she blind?"
Shen Qingwu looked at the aunt and niece calmly.
"When I suddenly woke up, I finally realized that she was not my biological mother."
"And now, she is finally blind. Perhaps, this is the retribution for doing bad things. When truth is false, falsehood is also true. What do you think, Zhao Ruyun?" Shen Qingwu said calmly.
Zhao Ruyun held the handkerchief in her hand for a long time without moving. After a long silence, she asked, "Did the government give an explanation? Who killed my aunt?"
All the servants who followed Zhao Qiuyi up the mountain died.
"Haven't you been to the Big Buddha Temple? Didn't you really find anything?" Zhao Ruyun looked up at Shen Qingwu.
"No, the lieutenant has already arranged people to investigate. I heard that the person escaped overnight and there is no trace of him yet." Shen Qingwu said good-temperedly, took a step forward, bent down and grabbed Zhao Qiuyi's wrist.
The pulse is very chaotic.
"Aren't you glad that she's in this state now? This way you can stay in the Shen family in the name of taking care of her. No matter what you did in the past, I can't drive you away?" Shen Qingwu called Sun Yimo over and asked her to feel her pulse herself. She rudely broke the little bit of relief in Zhao Ruyun's heart.
Zhao Ruyun's body stiffened slightly, and she lowered her head and continued to speak. She didn't say anything, but she looked even more pitiful. She couldn't help but secretly glance at the little boy who came forward.
After Sun Yimo felt the pulse and nodded, Shen Qingwu turned around and left with his men. He returned to Wutong Garden and asked Sun Yimo what she had seen.
…
Moon-Watching Tower.
"Mother." Sun Yimo had not seen Xie Yuening since she went to Shen Qingwu's courtyard. After more than two months, the mother and daughter reunited, and Sun Yimo threw herself into Xie Yuening's arms.
Xie Yuening looked at her daughter, who had grown taller and fatter, and her nimble hands and feet. The tears she had been holding back fell down, and she hugged her tightly in her arms, "Momo."
Sun Yimo patted Xie Yuening's back soothingly with her small hands, "Mother, I miss you so much, but you don't have to worry about me. Master is very good to me."
Xie Yuening stood up holding Sun Yimo and looked at Shen Qingwu in confusion, "Master?"
"Momo is very smart. I accepted her as my apprentice and taught her medical skills." Shen Qingwu explained.
"Qingwu, I really don't know how to thank you." Xie Yuening bowed to her while holding the child.
"Momo is so smart, I don't lose anything." Shen Qingwu stopped her from bowing and joked with a smile, "Momo has been talking about the food at Wangyue Tower for several days. Today I can finally bring her here to eat. As a mother, you have to treat us."
"Yes, yes, Master eats at Wangyue Tower every day. I feel greedy just hearing about it." Sun Yimo nodded repeatedly.
Xie Yuening raised her hand to wipe away her tears, and laughed at her daughter's amusement, "It's a great treat to eat with your master. He gives you a portion of all the food, and nothing goes to waste."
Sun Yimo leaned on Xie Yuening's arms and smiled so hard that her eyes almost disappeared.
"Is Xiao Qingyi reliable?" Xie Yuening glanced at the door worriedly.
The emperor now sends people to follow her wherever she goes. Today, she changed clothes with a servant who delivered food before coming here.
"Don't worry." Shen Qingwu nodded.
This is Xiao Qingyi's private room.
"Sorry." Xie Yuening said embarrassedly. She shouldn't have questioned.
Shen Qingwu shook his head indifferently, took out a palm-sized black sandalwood box and placed it in front of Xie Yuening.
There was a knock on the door, and Xiao Qingyi came in person to deliver the food.
"This crispy roast duck is a newly improved secret recipe. How about trying it?" Xiao Qingyi smiled and placed the roast duck she brought herself in front of Shen Qingwu.
After the person who delivered the food left, Xiao Qingyi stayed, turned around, pinched Sun Yimo's chubby little face, tore off a duck leg and handed it to her.
"Thank you, sister." Sun Yimo stretched out her hand obediently.
"Did your master teach you all those magical skills?" Xiao Qingyi asked with a smile.
When Shen Qingwu brought Sun Yimo here, he greeted her specifically and told her the truth.
She was surprised at Shen Qingwu's trust in her and immediately agreed to help.
Sun Yimo shook her head, "Master only taught me medical skills."
"Shen Qingwu, how about I become your disciple and you teach me some divination skills?" Xiao Qingyi waved at her as a greeting, then pulled a chair and sat next to Shen Qingwu and asked.
The appearance of Sun Yimo made her discover a new world.
"You don't look like you have this talent, and that's not the way you want to go." Shen Qingwu shook his head.
"What is this?" Xiao Qingyi snorted in disappointment, but quickly recovered her composure. She looked at the sandalwood box on the table, glanced around, and asked, "Can I see it?"
