Is Master happy?

Chapter 108

The inside of the house was dark, as if the doors and windows had been closed for several days, and there was no light at all. It took Xi Ya a long time to get used to it before he could see things from it. There was no one in the outer room. A servant girl came in with her and softly called her to go to the inner room with him. go.

Entering the back room, I heard a person speak slowly, his voice was soft, but with a bit of majesty, "Didn't I say that no one is allowed to come in."

The servant girl flinched, and quickly explained, "Master invited a doctor over for Miss, to take a look at you."

"I'm fine, there's no need." The young lady was lying under the bed curtain, she didn't show her face, only her voice could be heard, but her voice was weak and weak.

The servant girl was in a dilemma, so she tried her best to persuade her, "Miss, let this doctor show you. You haven't eaten for a long time, and the master and wife are worried about you. The wife washes her face with tears day and night, and the master can't take care of the family business. Even if the miss Don’t care about yourself, think about them too.”

A soft sigh came from the bed curtain, "I said I'm fine, but there are some things to think about, you go out and tell... Mrs. Madam, I'm sorry for you."

"Listen to the voice, the girl doesn't seem to be fine." Xi Ya put down the medicine box, glanced at the bed curtain, and said, "You haven't had any water or rice for two days, and now you can only say a few words. He was breathing heavily, and his body must have been extremely weak."

Seeing that the lady didn't answer, she said again: "If you don't want to die wholeheartedly, then you are just making trouble with yourself because of some small things, but... why do you need to make things difficult for your parents? If you have a problem, what do you want them to do?" live?"

The person in the bed tent heard the strange voice, and did not reply, only some rustling noises came out, and after a while she spoke again, with a bit of curiosity in her tone, "Are you a doctor? A woman? It’s the first time I’ve seen a woman practice medicine.”

Xi Ya replied solemnly, "I am not only a female doctor, but also a female doctor with excellent medical skills... I will check your pulse with you. If you don't mind, you can also do a silk consultation."

The young lady didn't reply when she heard the words, she just moved her body slightly in the tent, but she said to drive the servant girl out, the servant girl didn't dare to refute her, so she ran out quickly.

There were only the two of them in the room, the young lady sighed slightly, and when she spoke again, there was a touch of resentment in her tone, "Mister, do you know why I am so sad?"

"I don't know." Seeing her speak, Xi Ya stopped his movements, and waited for her to continue, "I am willing to listen carefully."

"The little girl is fifteen years old now. She has lived at home in the past and has never seen outsiders, so she is also curious about the world outside the house. A few days ago, the servant at home couldn't bear my entreaties and took me to the street to play, but she didn't want to When I was shopping in the market, I happened to catch a glimpse of someone, and since then... it's hard to stop."

Having said that, Xi Ya asked again: "Since that's the case, why don't you tell your father-in-law that he is the son of the He family, and ask him to negotiate this matter for you. If you have affection with him, wouldn't everyone be happy? "

"No, if the master finds out, I'm afraid I'll be ashamed." The young lady sighed in great melancholy.

Xi Ya thinks carefully, but it is also possible, after all, the only woman in the world who respects her reservedness, and her daughter is in love with her once she goes out, so the master might really get angry.

Knowing the cause of the disease, there is only one solution. Xi Ya felt that this spring-loving girl should not let her signboard be smashed, so she asked, "I don't know... can I help the girl?"

"Sir, are you willing to help me?" The woman's voice brightened instantly, as if she was extremely happy.

"If you can help each other, why not do it."

"Then I'll tell you the truth, sir, don't be frightened. I saw a... woman in white on the street that day. Since then, I have felt some inexplicable emotion in my heart, and it is still difficult to dispel it to this day." .”

The corners of Xi Ya's mouth froze, unable to speak for a while.

The young lady became flustered, and asked in a tearful voice, "Why? Sir, you don't want to help me?"

"Help, of course..." Xi Ya said softly, "But I have a way to make you forget the emotion, it must be easier than telling your family, why don't you choose the former?"

The young lady started to cry, "If you can't fulfill your wish, you might as well just starve to death."

Xi Ya patiently persuaded why he was so overwhelmed, "Just think about it, if the person you like is already married, it won't help even if you confess to the old man, besides... you don't know what girl she is, do you?"

"Are you married, sir?" The young lady asked without thinking when she heard the words.

"...never."

"I just found out that the person I like is not married, sir, is he still willing to help me?"

"What do you mean?" Xi Ya's heart skipped a beat, and he couldn't help but take two steps back.

The young lady hesitated to speak, and her voice was tender, "I saw Mr. on the street, and I fell in love with him at first sight. After that time, I will never forget it. I was sick because of love, and I didn't think about food. That's why I got sick, but I never thought about it. Dad actually invited Mr. to treat my illness, isn't this just a predestined relationship?"

"...I don't believe in fate." Xi Ya carried the medicine box on his back furtively, wondering how he would explain to the master that he was not good at learning if he escaped now.

"Mister wants to escape?" The young lady seemed to see her intention, and her voice sank for a moment.

"No, I just remembered... at home, at home... the door is not locked, so I will say goodbye to the girl first, and come back to chat with the girl if I have time in the future."

"Sir, is it because you and I are both women that you refuse to answer me?" The lady seemed to be choking with tears, the bed shook a few times, and she seemed to get up.

"...Girl, you and I are just meeting each other for the first time, so why are you willing to give your sincerity?" Xi Ya was very helpless, and his footsteps had already moved slowly towards the outer room.

"But when I saw the girl, I felt very close, as if I was close to you in the previous life."

Xi Ya was about to leave the outhouse in a few steps, and he only said perfunctorily: "...I don't have any memories of my previous life, the girl must have made a mistake."

She had already stepped out, and she was only one step away from leaving, but she didn't expect that at this moment, the young lady opened the bed curtain suddenly, stood up suddenly, called "Mr. , just took a step, but his legs and feet softened, and his body fell down in an instant.

Xi Ya reckoned, and felt that if he failed to cure her, but instead caused her to fall ill, he might not be able to explain it clearly, so he stepped forward a few steps and caught her.

The young lady panted slightly, so weak that Xi Ya thought she was going to faint.

She took some effort to help the delicate young lady up, and wanted to help her to sit on the edge of the bed, but who would have thought that the young lady took advantage of the momentum and hugged her neck, exerting all her strength, she refused to let go.

Xi Ya had no choice but to let her hang on her body. She was weak and it was impossible to pull her away with her hands. She could only persuade her, "Why do you have to force me, girl? I have a sweetheart."

"Who is it?" the young lady asked stubbornly.

"It's not convenient to tell, girl, let me go."

"I do not."

Xi Ya couldn't see her face clearly through the darkness, but he also knew that she was probably full of persistence at this moment.

Xi Ya had no choice but to take a step back, "Okay, okay, I won't leave, I won't leave until the girl is well, can the girl let me go?"

"Did you lie to me?"

"I will do what I say, girl, don't worry." Xi Ya tugged at her sleeve, "I'm going to be out of breath, girl, can you let me go?"

"...That's fine." The young lady reluctantly let go, and was supported by her to sit down. She took a long time to calm down.

"Would you like some water?" Xi Ya asked after she straightened her messy clothes and saw that she was getting weaker and weaker.

"it is good."

Xi Ya then went to the outhouse, touched the tea table, but did not see the kettle, opened the door and went out, telling the old man and his wife that their young lady was willing to eat, the two burst into tears of joy, and urged the servants to prepare some clear water. Congee and side dishes, first feed the young lady to nourish her stomach, and Xi Ya entrusted a maid to bring some warm water in.

All the servants in the courtyard dispersed like birds, each busy with their own business, Xi Ya put the medicine box in the courtyard, thinking of the darkness in the young lady's room, he got up and went in, only one maid was feeding her water, Then he opened his mouth and asked: "I'm going to open the window to let some air in, and you cover your young lady's eyes a little bit."

The servant girl agreed, and raised her hand to cover the young lady's eyes, Xi Ya pulled out the window latch, pushed it lightly, the window opened wide, and the dark red sunset outside shone in, lighting up the window almost instantly. inside the house.

She patted the dust off her hands, glanced sideways at the furnishings in the room, glanced around, and then her eyes fell on the person next to the bed, but a slight glance shocked her mind severely, and she couldn't move anymore Open your eyes.

Are there two people who are so similar in the world?

The figure is like that person, the eyebrows and eyes are like that person, and the appearance is also like that person...

Xi Ya looked at her calmly, his eyes seemed to pierce through the man's body to see her soul clearly.

That soul... but the one I know well?

Seeing that her young lady was no longer afraid of the light, the servant girl put down her hands, the young lady raised her eyes, her eyes just collided with Xi Ya, and she smiled for a moment.

Her complexion was pale, but there were no traces of tears on her cheeks, and the circles of her eyes were not red, as if the person who was crying just now was not her.

Xi Ya's body didn't move, his eyes were still fixed on her.

Her smile widened, but when she spoke, her voice changed. The tone was very familiar to Xi Ya, with a gentleness and a little playfulness that made her heart tremble slightly, and she said: "Why is Mr. shocked? Could it be that the little girl You were shocked by his appearance, and also moved?"
