Time passed quietly, and in the blink of an eye, two months passed.
After entering the twelfth lunar month, there were two heavy snowfalls, and the weather became increasingly cold.
Charcoal basins were lit in various courtyards of the Ling Mansion. It was freezing and windy outside, and no matter how thick the cloak was, it could not block the cold air. The room was warm and cozy.
"This damn weather is almost freezing to death." Ling Jingyan entered the inner hall and took off her thick cloak, her pretty face turned red from the cold.
Mrs. Sun looked distressed: "Come here quickly and sit. The charcoal basin is closer and it will be warmer."
Ling Jingyan responded, sat down next to Sun, drank half a cup of hot tea. My stomach felt warm, and most of the coldness in my body had dissipated. I finally had the strength to speak: "Mom, where is my sister-in-law? Didn't she come to say hello to you today?"
Since Mrs. Jiang became pregnant, Mrs. Sun has exempted her from morning and dusk readings. However, the Jiang family did not rely on favor to become arrogant, and still paid respects to the Sun family regularly every day. Occasionally if he feels unwell, he will send his maid over to say something.
Mrs. Sun rolled her eyes angrily: "In this kind of weather, she can't go out and walk around while pregnant. I sent someone early in the morning to let her rest assured to raise the baby in the house. There is no need to come over."
Ling Jingyan said deliberately sourly: "My mother only feels sorry for my sister-in-law, but she doesn't feel sorry for my daughter at all."
Mrs. Sun didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "You are not ashamed, how can you, a girl, have the honor to be compared with a pregnant daughter-in-law? I have to take care of you because of my inconvenience. You are very lively and energetic all day long. Please come and talk to me." It’s also appropriate to speak.”
Ling Jingyan was used to being scolded for a long time, so she stuck out her tongue with a smile.
After a while, Ling Jingshu and her sister also came over.
Ling Jingyan smiled and joked: "Ah Shu, you come early every day, but today you can't beat me."
Ling Jingshu's eyes shone with joy and she was in a very good mood: "There is a reason why I came late today."
"Oh? What's wrong?" Ling Jingyan's curiosity was aroused: "Is it because you have been taking medicine recently and your condition has improved?"
Mrs. Sun also looked over with concern.
Two months ago, Ling Wuye led Ling Jingshu back from Huichun Hall and brought back a bunch of medicine. Ling Jingshu took medicine three times a day without interruption. There will always be a faint medicinal smell wafting from the body.
In order to cover up the smell of medicine, Ling Jingshu had the habit of wearing sachets.
"My symptoms seem to have improved somewhat. I feel soft and calm recently, and my appetite is much better than before." Ling Jingshu said with a smile: "However, I came late today, not because of this, but because of A Xiao!"
What happened to Ling Xiao
Mother and daughter Sun looked at Ling Xiao together.
Ling Xiao has been eating well and sleeping well for the past six months, and his body has been growing. Standing side by side with Ling Jingshu, he is already taller than Ling Jingshu. Her beautiful and fair face was filled with excitement and joy, and she couldn't wait to announce: "A Shu changed my dressing today, and when I took off the cotton cloth, I could vaguely see A Shu's face."
Sun and Ling Jingyan were stunned at first, then overjoyed.
"Ah Xiao, is everything you said true?" Ling Jingyan couldn't restrain her excitement and immediately approached Ling Xiao: "Can you really see Ah Shu? In this way, your eye disease will be cured soon. Already?"
Ling Xiao's lips curled up, and his voice was full of joy: "It's a little blurry, but I can already see the figure."
"This is really great!" Mrs. Sun couldn't help clasping her hands and smiling from ear to ear: "God bless, Bodhisattva bless! This is really great news!"
I can already see human figures, and the day when my eyesight will be completely restored is not far away.
yes! What could be more gratifying than that Ling Xiao's eye disease is about to be cured
Ling Jingshu smiled and stared at her brother who was full of joy, and her heart was filled with joy.
…
Lord Ling soon learned the good news and was overjoyed. He asked repeatedly: "Axiao, can your eyes really see?"
Ling Xiao smiled and replied: "It's a little blurry, I can only see the outline, it's not very clear."
"Anyway, I can finally see it." Ling Wuye smiled while stroking his short beard.
Ling Xiao has been blind for many years. From being full of hope at the beginning, Ling Wuye gradually became disappointed. He no longer had any hope for Ling Xiao, and intentionally or unintentionally neglected his son.
For more than two months, Ling Wuye accompanied Ling Xiao to the Prince's Mansion every five days. He witnessed Ling Xiao suffering from acupuncture time and time again, which also evoked the few father's love in his heart. .
Now that Ling Xiao's eye disease is expected to be restored, Lord Ling Wu feels happy: "Tomorrow is the day of acupuncture again. I must tell Dr. Wei this good news and thank Dr. Wei."
Ling Xiao nodded and agreed.
Ling Wuye looked at Ling Jingshu again, his tone full of hope: "Ah Shu, you have been taking medicine for two months. Has your condition improved?"
Under Ling Wuye's expectant gaze, Ling Jingshu shook her head calmly.
Ling Wuye felt disappointed and couldn't help but said: "I have been seeing doctors for two months, but there is still no improvement. If Mrs. Wei cannot cure your illness, it is better to invite other famous doctors. The capital is so big and the medical skills are superb. There are so many doctors out there, they might be able to cure your disease..."
"no!"
Ling Jingshu and Ling Xiao unanimously expressed their opinions.
Fifth Master Ling frowned somewhat unhappily: "Why not?"
"Dr. Wei has great medical skills and I can trust him." Ling Jingshu ignored Master Ling Wu's ugly expression and said calmly: "If he can cure A Xiao, he will definitely cure my illness. I have never thought of changing doctors. "
Ling Xiao immediately took over the conversation: "Ah Shu is right. Changing doctors midway is very disrespectful to Imperial Physician Wei. If Imperial Physician Wei finds out, he will definitely be unhappy. When the time comes, what face will Father and I have to show us? Dr. Wei? Besides, Dr. Wei has always been tight-lipped and the news of Ah Shu’s illness has never been spread. What if my father invites a doctor from outside and accidentally leaks the matter?"
"So, I advise my father to give up this idea as soon as possible."
Fifth Master Ling was speechless for a while, and then he snorted angrily: "I just made a casual suggestion, look at you two siblings, both of you are facing me with your mouth open. As a father, I can't even say a casual word. Yet?"
Speaking of these, Ling Wuye was really dissatisfied.
It is only natural for children to obey their father's orders. His children are becoming more and more assertive. Not only are they unwilling to listen to him, they are also critical of his words and deeds from time to time.
It is really rare for a father to be as cowardly as he is.
Ling Jingshu and Ling Xiao looked at each other and silently ignored the resentment in Ling Wuye's tone. (To be continued)
