Chapter 128 The suicide note contained in 2
This time He Qingqing felt as if she had fallen into an ice cave, kneeling on the ground so frightened that her face turned pale.
Seeing that he frightened the child like this, Hemei Medical Sage gave Imperial Physician Liu a slap in the face, and then said quietly: "You don't need to show me face, your elder brother and I don't have that ability, let Fanghui tell you by herself. "
"Fanghui?" Suddenly hearing the name of his deceased wife, Imperial Physician Liu was startled, not knowing what Hemei Medical Sage meant by these words, and asked at a loss: "Brother, you... what do you mean by that? "
Hemei Medical Sage did not answer him directly, but stood up from his seat in the hall and moved in front of He Qingqing.
He said to her: "Disciple, where is the agarwood bracelet that your teacher gave you on the day you and Yanhan got engaged?"
Although he didn't know what Hemei Doctor Sage's intention was, He Qingqing still lifted up her cuffs cooperatively, revealing the bracelet that she had always carried with her.
She said bluntly: "I always carry it with me on weekdays, and I dare not leave it."
"Well, take it down and show it to Imperial Physician Liu." Medical Sage Hemei stretched out his hand to beg for it.
He Qingqing hurriedly did so, took off the bracelet, and handed it to Hemei Medical Sage with both hands respectfully.
"Here, let's take a look! Do you still recognize this thing?" Hemei Medical Sage handed the bracelet to Imperial Physician Liu and ordered him to take a closer look.
Unexpectedly, Imperial Physician Liu froze when he saw this thing.
In an instant, the expressions on his face changed too complicated, including shock, joy, sadness, and loneliness. Those eyes, which had been eroded by the years, now showed a trace of something that didn't seem to belong to him at this age. brilliance.
It was because his eyes were too hot when he looked at this pair of bracelets, as if he was not looking at an object, but at a real person.
He moved his lips, and after a while he asked tremblingly: "Isn't this...isn't this... the bracelet that Fanghui often wore when she was alive? Since she passed away, she has never seen it again, and it is just as if she was lost. Why... ...how could it be on this girl." Doctor Liu pointed to He Qingqing and asked in puzzlement.
"Oh...that's a long story..." Hemei Medical Sage sighed, looking into the void, as if recalling a distant time.
Then, he said eloquently: "You, I, and Fanghui were originally from the same family. The three of us have been brothers since we were young. Later, I stayed in Xinyi Valley to continue practicing medical skills, and Fanghui fell in love with you as a husband and wife. I went to the capital with you, and became a virtuous housemate. I assisted you all the way to enter the imperial hospital for official career. It's going from bad to worse..."
"It's a pity, it's pitiful..." At this point, Hemei Medical Sage couldn't help but lamented for his late friend.
"One year, I traveled all over the rivers and lakes, went to the capital for free consultation, and stopped by to visit her. At that time, you were busy with official duties, serving the imperial court to fight the floods and epidemics in the south of Jinan, and you hadn't returned home for half a year."
"Actually, at that time, Fang Hui's health was already very poor, but in order not to distract you, she always concealed her condition, and you have been obsessed with studying medical skills, wanting to make a difference in the imperial hospital, so that you have no time to raise your children. , She knew that her fate was not long, and she was really worried about Yan Han who was still young, so she begged me hard all the time, saying that if she left in the future, she must help her raise her children to grow up."
Hearing this, Imperial Physician Liu was sobbing, looking back on the past, he owed so much to the mother and daughter, but he didn't realize it.
Thinking about it, I'm really ashamed, even if I cry until my heart breaks, I can't bring back the lost time.
"Fanghui said that if Yanhan can grow up safely, she will die, and there is nothing to regret. It's a pity that as a mother, I can't see with my own eyes. What will my daughter's favorite person look like in the future, and I will say my best wishes .”
"Later, he took off the agarwood bracelet that he carried with him and gave it to me. He told me that if Yanhan has someone who will stay with him for life in the future, he will give this to her as a gift. It is also a long-cherished wish."
Hemei Medical Sage returned the agarwood bracelet to He Qingqing, and said, "That's why it was on this child later."
Having said that, everyone present finally figured out what was going on, and they were all moved by the affectionate maternal love of this calf, and burst into tears.
Among them, He Qingqing was the one who felt the deepest. Facing the censure of Imperial Physician Liu before, no matter how wronged she was, she didn't even frown.
She held the pair of bracelets tightly in her hands, covering her heart, unable to calm down for a long time.
Never thought that Liu Yanhan's mother would not forget to leave such a token when she was dying.
It turned out that this mother-in-law, who had never masked her face, had already secretly recognized her and blessed her.
The feeling of being resented and denied by Imperial Physician Liu all the time, and then suddenly being recognized by her close relatives filled her with gratitude and happiness.
I also heard Hemei Medical Sage say: "At that time, Fanghui also wrote a suicide note for my safekeeping, saying that if there is a gap between your father and daughter in the future, I must mediate it. If it is difficult to ease, I will I took out this suicide note and delivered it to you, she said, if you read it, you will definitely understand her intentions."
Saying that, Hemei Medical Sage took out a letter from the lapel of his clothes, and handed it to Imperial Physician Liu.
At first, Imperial Physician Liu was shocked. It has been more than [-] years since his wife died of illness.
This has also become an unhealable scar in his heart, and since then he has been indulging himself in tedious official duties, numb himself and don't mention this sad thing, so he won't be sad anymore.
Others were very knowledgeable and kept silent about it. He thought that if he didn't mention the matter, it would really pass.
I don’t want to be brought up again after more than 20 years, but it still makes people feel so heartbroken. It turned out that the heartache was just pretending that it didn’t exist, but it never healed.
After receiving the letter from Hemei Medical Sage, Imperial Physician Liu had mixed feelings in his heart.
With trembling hands, he opened the letter paper that had been dusty for more than 20 years, and saw that it was written in Fanghui's handsome font on the yellowed paper.
Husband:
When I read this letter, I am afraid that you and I, husband and wife, have been separated forever.
But life and death are fate, don't be sad, as a wife, you just have one thing to worry about, thinking about it, you can only leave a book in advance, and hope that in the future it will solve the confusion in your heart.
Over the years, I have been working with you as a wife in the palace, and I have seen too many intrigues in the political field, as well as the cold-blooded and ruthless between people.
I also understand more and more what is the most important thing in this world. In fact, it is not fame or profit in the end, but kindness, brotherhood, love between husband and wife, and filial piety. These emotions that we think are the most common are actually the most rare. Often the most overlooked.
Husband, you are a person with extremely high talent and strong self-esteem, and you strive for perfection in both others and yourself, so you are inevitably harsh, and you can't tolerate a grain of sand in your eyes.
Our daughter is still so young, and the mother is very worried that she will suffer hardships and suffer in the process of growing up, but she knows that she is sick and her life is not long, and she is afraid that she will not be able to see her grow up.
I wrote a book for my wife today, telling my husband that as a father, you must put your daughter’s happiness first. In the future, you must not impose your own consciousness on her, and you must let her live the life you want to live, and do what you like. Do not force her.
In this life, my mother has no other expectations for her, not to be rich and powerful, but to be safe and happy.
Finally, I gave my son a motto: "Don't go against your original intention, only for your true self." It is the last thing a mother can do for her.
I'm going, cherish yourself, don't worry about it. —— Wife Fang Hui Pen
After reading this letter from his deceased wife, Imperial Physician Liu was already in tears.
He couldn't have imagined that Fanghui left this letter with such reluctance and helplessness back then.
She was reluctant to leave her child and husband behind, but she made such a decision out of no other choice than her destiny.
Imperial Physician Liu was suddenly ashamed and almost ashamed. Looking back on these years, he hardly fulfilled the responsibility of being a good father.
Sending the child back to Xinyi Valley for upbringing prematurely made her miss all the important moments in her life.
And working hard for the children in the capital is just an excuse for selfish greed and irresponsibility.
Now the situation of incompatibility between father and daughter seems to be the retribution of God.
For a split second, Imperial Physician Liu suddenly didn't know what he was obsessed with all this time, and his heart seemed to be decades old, and he didn't want to be entangled in this matter anymore.
He sighed dejectedly, but his tone was still not very polite, he didn't even look at He Qingqing, and said forcefully.
"Forget it, I'm old, and I can't care about the affairs of you juniors. Anyway, that unfilial girl is now a deaf person. No decent family would want her to be disabled like this. She is just suitable for you, a short-lived person. Go find Come on, don't bother me."
As he spoke, he put the letter back into his jacket like a treasure, and waved his hand, saying goodbye to everyone present.
Now he just wants to find a quiet place to stay, to calm down the sadness in his heart, and don't want anyone to disturb him.
So, with staggering steps and a lonely and aged figure, he left the hall and walked towards the back bedroom.
"What... what's going on? Uncle Liu, is this forgiving me?" Happiness came too quickly, and He Qingqing was still a little dazed to confirm with the people around her.
"Yes... yes... Senior Sister He... don't worry about it so much... get up and stop kneeling..."
Liu Ya'er felt sorry for her senior sister this night, she kept apologizing and knelt down, pulling her up again and again.
Grandma Zhang hurriedly persuaded: "Yes... get up quickly!"
As he spoke, he pushed the person towards the inner room: "Go to Miss's bedroom to have a look! She has been looking forward to you for so long!"
After hearing this, He Qingqing stood up as if waking up from a dream, and ran towards Liu Yanhan's bedroom without turning her head, as if she was running towards the only warmth and light in her life, amidst everyone's expectations.
The author has something to say:
Love can bear it, family affection can't bear it, ying ying ying...
Only mother is good in the world,
Be a sensible child and be filial to your mother.
