On the way back, Yun Jinnian was feeling sowhat listless. After returning to the Yun Residence, she paid her respects to Mrs. Han and then went back to Niannian Garden.
After lunch and freshening up, Yun Jinnian felt exhausted and lay down on the bed to rest.
When it was almost dark and Yun Jinnian still hadn’t gotten up, Mrs. Yuan lifted the bed curtain and saw Yun Jinnian’s face was flushed red. She was so frightened that she hurriedly went to check Yun Jinnian’s forehead.
It was burning hot.
"Oh no, Miss has a fever. Hei, go quickly and report to madam to have her call a doctor!" Mrs. Yuan urgently called out, busily preparing a warm cloth to apply to Yun Jinnian’s forehead.
Soon after receiving the news, Mrs. Han ca to Niannian Garden and seeing how seriously ill Yun Jinnian was, she called out softly, "Jinnian?"
Yun Jinnian opened her eyes, took a glance at Mrs. Han, and then closed her eyes again, lacking the strength to keep them open.
Mrs. Han felt as though her heart was being wrenched with pain.
Now that her father was gone to Sanzhou and could not return for so ti, they had no choice but to call a doctor.
"Go to Baicao Hall and summon a doctor!"
Bai Que personally went and quickly brought back a doctor from Baicao Hall. The doctor from Baicao Hall had quite impressive dical skills. After taking Yun Jinnian’s pulse, he said, "She is suffering from overexertion and weakness, which has led to the fever. Prescribe a few dicines for her to take and once she sweats out the fever, she will quickly recover. However, she will need a period of calm and restful recuperation!"
So young, yet already worn out by emotional strain; life in well-to-do families isn’t that easy.
The senior doctor thought as he sighed involuntarily.
He wrote the prescription, instructed how to prepare the dicine, and left with the paynt.
Hei and Henuan went to prepare the dicine while Ru Yue and Mrs. Yuan tended to the room. Nurse An and Mrs. Han talked in the parlor.
Mrs. Han inquired whether Yun Jinnian had displayed any unusual behavior recently. Nurse An shook her head.
Because Yun Jinnian seed normal, with nothing amiss.
"Alright, I understand!"
Mrs. Han said as she entered the bedroom. Looking at Yun Jinnian, who still had a high fever, she took Yun Jinnian’s burning hand, "I am sorry, my child, for not giving you a ho or a carefree childhood. Jinnian, if ti could be turned back, your mother definitely wouldn’t be willful. I certainly wouldn’t!"
"But Jinnian, now, I just can’t bring myself to feel any love for your father. His every word and action have disappointed completely!"
All these years, the neglect towards her daughter, the indifference.
While she was at the estate, he never visited, nor did he ever take his daughter to see her.
She gave him such a good opportunity, but he never seized it. Instead, he blad her for being cold and heartless.
It was the Yun Family who wronged her, the Yun Family who sched against her.
If she had been weaker, after such events, she would have long ago taken her own life.
Yun Jinnian seed to hear Mrs. Han’s voice, opened her eyes, and looked at Mrs. Han, "Mother..."
"Jinnian!"
Mrs. Han was overjoyed.
"Mother, it hurts!" Yun Jinnian said, her mind in disarray.
She didn’t know if she was in a dream or in reality.
"Where does it hurt, my child? Let mother rub it, and the pain will go away!"
Yun Jinnian shook her head, "Mother, they chopped off my hands and feet, they pulled out my tongue. Mother, it hurts. Save , please save !"
As Yun Jinnian spoke, she began to cry.
She was in so much pain, so afraid, so uncomfortable.
Alone, helpless, desperate, with not a glimr of hope in sight.
Momo, Momo even ate her flesh!
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Han was enraged but also started crying, "It won’t happen, it won’t. With mother here, no one dares treat you like that, no one dares. Mother won’t forgive them, and neither will your maternal grandfather!"
"Whimper..."
Crying, Yun Jinnian eventually cried herself to exhaustion and fell into a deep sleep once more.
