When Shen Zhixi entered the room, he heard that Tang Zhou was a little excited.
He seemed to be getting out of bed, but the doctor was struggling to stabilize him.
"Sir, please lie down and don't move around. You must feel dizzy and uncomfortable right now. That's because of the blood clot in your brain. You should lie down and rest. If you move around, it will aggravate the blood clot. Don't worry about it next time. It will be even more difficult to restore the eyes."
"Get out of the way!"
Tang Zhou's voice was obviously full of anger, and he couldn't listen to anything the doctor said.
"Sir, you must not..."
"Don't force me to do it." Tang Zhou looked pale, but insisted on getting up.
"Son..."
Seeing that Tang Zhou was about to have an attack, Shen Zhixi, who was in the room, confirmed with his own eyes that his eyes were indeed not well, and then called him, "Husband, listen to the doctor."
Hearing her voice, Tang Zhou calmed down a little.
Shen Zhixi turned his head and glanced at Yuanyang, who immediately went up the steps to ask the doctor to leave.
"Husband, you scared me to death. I thought something had happened to you. Now that you're awake, you're still not lying down to rest. What are you making a fuss about? You think I'm not scared enough?"
Tang Zhou stood up to greet Shen Zhixi. Shen Zhixi came closer and pulled him to sit down.
She pretended to be angry as she faced Tang Zhou and carefully observed his expression. As she watched, she couldn't help but frown because she saw Tang Zhou's eyes turned red across from him.
He might also be afraid that she would notice his red eyes, so he lowered his eyes and did not dare to look at her.
"Husband, does your head still hurt?"
Looking at Tang Zhou now, Shen Zhixi felt that his heart had become colder for some reason.
The sudden recovery of his eyes earlier served as a warning to her, reminding her that the outcome between her and Tang Zhou was cruel, and it was her own choice. She could neither retreat nor sink.
Tang Zhou was just a tool to help her conceive a child, and she had to speed up the progress.
"It doesn't hurt." Tang Zhou breathed a sigh of relief, shook his head and said, "It's just that when I woke up, I suddenly felt a little scared."
"Afraid? What are you afraid of?"
"I had a dream." Tang Zhou looked back, his dull eyes searching her face closely, "I dreamed that you left and left me here alone, and you didn't want me anymore. So, I’m anxious to find you.”
Shen Zhixi raised his eyebrows and turned his head.
It turned out that he was also sensitive.
But it doesn't matter, no matter what, it can't change the result she wants.
"How could you have such a dream? Dreams and reality are both opposite. I am clearly here fine and will not go anywhere."
She is getting better and better at telling lies now, but telling too many lies is very energy-consuming and tiring.
Tang Zhou nodded, sat closer and reached out to take her into his arms.
"Yes, luckily it was just a dream."
But Tang Zhou hugged her very lightly, as if he suspected that the current hug was also a dream. If he exerted force, the dream would wake up and she would disappear.
"I'm just sorry. I regret that I couldn't see you when my eyes recovered. It would be great if...if the person in the kitchen just now was you. You don't know how much I want to see you."
Shen Zhixi laughed silently in his arms, but Tang Zhou's regret was her happiness.
She didn't want to know how sorry Tang Zhou was. Whether it was now or in the future, it had nothing to do with her. It was what he said himself, and he regarded it as repaying her for saving his life.
No matter how nice what he says now, it will always change in the future.
Everyone is the same, and he, Tang Zhou, will not be an exception.
"So you have to lie down and have a good rest. When your injuries are completely healed and the blood clots in your brain are completely cleared, your eyes will recover. Then you can look at me from head to toe."
"Okay, I'll listen to you."
After being comforted by her, Tang Zhou seemed to feel much more comfortable and his tone became more relaxed.
"Then why don't you lie down quickly and I'll make some medicine for you."
She came out of Tang Zhou's arms, helped Tang Zhou lie down, covered him with a quilt, and was about to leave. When she turned around, Tang Zhou grabbed her wrist, and she heard him suddenly ask: "Madam, are you really right?" ?"
"ah?"
Shen Zhixi didn't understand what he meant and was surprised.
"You are holding my hand now. Are you telling me that I am serious?"
"Yes." Tang Zhou blinked quickly and apologized: "It's my fault. I've been thinking too much."
"Just lie down and wait for me to come back." Shen Zhixi patted the back of his hand and pulled his hand away.
After leaving the door, there was one more person in the yard.
It's not the doctor. The doctor has already been sent away by Yuanyang.
It's Cui's mother.
Realizing that something was wrong, Shen Zhixi closed the door and quietly walked out of the yard with Cui's mother. Cui's mother's carriage was parked far away, fearing that Tang Zhou would hear her if she got closer and arouse suspicion. She got off the carriage and walked here carefully.
"What's wrong? Something happened outside?" Cui's mother walked away with Shen Zhixi.
"If something hadn't happened, I wouldn't have come here to see you. Miss is happy and at ease here, so how dare I disturb you."
"Mama Cui, why do you have to be so arrogant? I am doing this for the sake of my children."
Shen Zhixi ran to the sitting stone in the forest and sat down.
He raised his head, looked at Cui's mother and continued to ask: "Did something happen again at Qin Mu's place?"
"Yes, Qin Mu spread rumors everywhere in the city, saying that you have corrupt personal ethics, cheated and raised men outside, abandoned him regardless of friendship for the sake of men outside, and even teamed up with outsiders to beat him until he was seriously injured. Although he is a family member He is a middle-aged man, but he is quite talented and handsome. He is very popular among the ladies. The bulk of our family's business is women's business such as rouge and gouache. Those ladies who are looking for Qin Mu are instigating , something has happened."
Shen Zhixi leaned against the tree, his expression quite calm.
"Now all the women in the city have probably known and believed Qin Mu's words. They have threatened that they will never use something from such an immoral person. We have a total of twenty makeup shops in the city, and there are There are several small towns nearby... The shopkeeper of the main store last night calculated that he had lost tens of thousands of taels of money due to returns in the past two days. Some even deliberately found trouble, saying that they used our powder to get a rash, which made them look like they used to. Even though I have returned all the things I bought, I still want to ask for compensation. From morning till now, they are still asking for compensation..."
"Okay, stop talking."
"Don't say it? I have a lot more to say. There are still many people throwing rotten eggs into our shop..."
"Okay, I get it, it's all what I expected."
Shen Zhixi couldn't sit still and stood up again, but he seemed lifeless and even smiled.
Qin Mu burned down the warehouse at her dock that day, thinking that he had burned the goods in the warehouse. Unexpectedly, the goods were successfully put on the cargo ship the next day. Qin Mu must have guessed that she was behind it, so naturally She also understood that the beating he received that day was all her fault.
Shen Zhixi had already expected that he would break up and even do these things.
"He was sorry for me and let me down. I just retaliated a little, but he was so eager. He wanted me dead and ruined my reputation. He did something wrong but he wanted to kill me."
"Ha, man!"
"It's really nothing!"
Mother Cui sighed after hearing these words, and then asked, "What should we do now?"
"Why are you so anxious? Fang Rou is still in our hands. Mother Cui, please go back first. I know what's going on. I'll bring Fang Rou back to me tomorrow. I'll go back and prepare medicine for Tang Zhou first."
"Miss, you can't be fooled by Tang Zhou's beauty..."
"Don't worry, if I trust men again, I will die badly!"
