Yeah, why should I die?
I’ve endured so much suffering and hardship, I’ve managed to survive going from the Capital to this impoverished life in Shu City. If the Xiao family returns to the Capital to live a good life but I’m not there, Xiao Sanlang would just marry soone else... No, no, I can’t die!
When Chun Nuan said this, Mrs. Huang was so agitated that she began to tremble.
"Auntie San, don’t get excited."
Chun Nuan knew her harsh words had hit her where it hurt, and quickly supported her: "Your health is not well right now, but now that I’m back, I will definitely help you get better. Don’t worry, follow my prescription, take the dicine, and gradually you’ll recuperate."
Mrs. Huang looked at Chun Nuan.
"Auntie San, trust , I swear as a mber of the Xiao family of doctors: You’re my patient, and I will cure your illness."
This ti, Mrs. Huang didn’t oppose.
Chun Nuan asked about her monthly cycle.
"It’s been four months since it ca."
If there was a husband, four months of no cycle should be a happy occasion.
But without a husband, not having it ans illness.
"You’ve been overthinking, which is affecting your sleep."
Poor sleep, poor appetite, bad mood, then poor health.
Chun Nuan knew that Mrs. Huang had caught a disease called depression.
This illness is characterized by low mood, pessimism, accompanied by talking to oneself, silly laughter, auditory and visual hallucinations, delusions, and so on.
To cure this disease, it’s not just about taking dicine; it needs the cooperation of family even more.
Chun Nuan first instructed Mrs. Huang to take the pills she prescribed, and then she needed to return to the pharmacy to make other dicines.
However, the most important thing is to have a talk with Auntie.
"What did you say? She’s sick?"
"Yes, Auntie, Auntie San’s illness is very serious."
Just by looking at her eyes, it was evident that if it wasn’t treated soon, it could lead to severe consequences.
"She..."
Mrs. Xu frowned deeply: "She is such an accomplished person, soone so knowledgeable, who doesn’t bother to chat or laugh with or your mother, always locking herself in her room reading or teaching the children to read and write, how did she get sick?"
"Auntie, Auntie San’s kind of illness stems from suppressing her thoughts for a long ti without expressing them, or not finding soone to talk to, keeping everything in her heart, thinking too much, making it more complicated until she can’t get out."
"She doesn’t co out, do I have to drag her out?"
"You should go out and get so sun more often, and include her in your conversations." Chun Nuan said: "Although she may handle so things improperly, with Auntie there to keep her grounded, she won’t be able to decide alone."
"Okay, I understand."
Mrs. Xu also felt a bit guilty: "I didn’t care for her enough. Nuannuan, you must take good care of her, don’t let anything bad happen, or how will we face your Uncle San when he returns?"
"Mm, I will," Chun Nuan said: "I also talked to Auntie San for a while, she should hopefully co to understand so things now."
"You know, reading too much isn’t always a good thing." Mrs. Xu sighed lightly: "Among us three sisters-in-law, her knowledge is the best, but she keeps everything inside, fighting her battles alone. Now look at what happened, she bottled it all up and made herself sick."
"Mother, considering her illness, please pay more attention to Auntie San."
"Alright, alright, I will."
Mrs. Xu had a headache: "This household, there are so many issues."
"Yes, it’s ti to start preparing for Nuannuan’s marriage since the new year is coming."
"It’s still early, wait for the mourning period for Grandmother to be over before we proceed."
"We do need to wait, but so preparations should begin," Mrs. Xu said: "Previously, we didn’t have the ans, now that we have so spare money at ho, Nuannuan, let’s get you a few maids."
"Auntie, there’s no need for maids," Chun Nuan said: "We can just use the maids from the Zhao family then."
In the past at the Xiao Mansion, Chun Nuan rarely used maids.
She handled many things on her own.
Over these past two years, she has shouldered the responsibility for the Xiao family, and has beco even less accustod to using maids.
"You silly child, you have to use them, it’s a matter of face."
For a girl from a wealthy family to get married, she needs to have maids and an accompanying room.
"Alright, then choose two smart ones, preferably literate."
"In terms of appearance..." Mrs. Xu picked up the conversation: "Simple and honest, can it be done?"
"Yes."
Chun Nuan understood Auntie’s implication; companion maids sotis had other purposes.
But Chun Nuan had no intention of engaging in such matters; she couldn’t tolerate such nuisances.
"And what do you require for the accompanying room?"
