Chapter 218
Xu Yanjin couldn't give You Ning an answer, they both had things they couldn't help, if they could have met earlier, these things happened earlier, there would be less resistance between them, Xu Yanjin would definitely enter the palace on his own initiative and beg the emperor to marry them both.
You Ning looked at Xu Yanjin, the expectant light in her eyes gradually dimmed.
In fact, she knew that Xu Yanjin would not give her an affirmative answer.
What she hoped for was not that Xu Yanjin firmly said that they would be together. After all, she couldn't even ask her questions, so how could she force Xu Yanjin to give her an accurate answer?
The last bit of light remained, only because of Xu Yanjin's hesitation.
As long as Xu Yanjin hesitated, Youning felt that all of this was meaningful, and she still had hope.
"I see."
Before Xu Yanjin opened his mouth, Youning said this on his own.
Xu Yanjin didn't know what You Ning knew, he felt a little conflicted about You Ning now, the feelings were indeed there, but the feelings were not enough to make Xu Yanjin desperate for You Ning.
It's already not far from here, and it's not convenient for them to enter the city together.
Unable to get the answer she wanted, You Ning turned around and left, walking towards the city without looking back.
Xu Yanjin clenched the hand holding the horse rope a little bit. This time we parted, it might be difficult to see each other in the future.
After all, they returned to their own destiny track.
As soon as You Ning entered the city, he was recognized by the servants of the Qi family.
If it weren't for the fact that this is the young lady of their family, and they have been together for so many years, they probably wouldn't recognize her.
In just a few days, Youning became so different from before.
The whole person was pale and lacked energy, as if he had experienced something bad.
The clothes are tattered, and the hair is messy, Qi Youning may not have been so sloppy in the past ten years.
The servants of Qi's mansion were worried that Youning would be recognized by others, so they didn't dare to say anything, so they hurried back to the mansion with Youning.
Qi Youning finally came back, and they no longer had to go out looking for people every day.
Mrs. Qi heard that Youning was back, so she rushed out to see how Youning was doing.
Seeing Youning's haggard look made her feel distressed, but she still restrained the thought of hugging Youning, insisted on walking in front of Youning, and slapped her across the face.
They came back in a hurry, and they had no money on them. They just found a few sour wild fruits to pad their stomachs, and they didn't eat anything else, and their physical strength was exhausted long ago.
Mrs. Qi's slap also used six to seven minutes of strength, but You Ning couldn't bear the strength.
Youning fell down, and finally couldn't hold on anymore
"Ning Ning."
Mrs. Qi didn't expect that her slap would make You Ning faint, but her heartache still prevailed. She quickly picked up You Ning, sent her back to the room, and asked her servants to find the doctor.
The doctor examined Youning's pulse, his face was complicated, he wanted to say something but he was too embarrassed to say it.
"This"
"But it doesn't matter."
No matter what You Ning has experienced outside, she is still the Qi family's daughter after all, as long as she can come back safely, they can accept anything.
"Miss fainted because she was exhausted. She hadn't eaten during this period of time, and her body had a cold syndrome. It should be caused by soaking in cold water for too long. It won't affect her life on weekdays, but it will be more uncomfortable when it's cold. , and may affect the offspring."
"In the past few days, as long as you take a good rest and nourish yourself, there will be no serious problems. The most troublesome thing is the cold syndrome, which cannot be cured. It can only be recuperated slowly."
The doctor often comes to see the Qi family, and he also checked Youning's pulse before. Before that, Youning's body was not so bad. It has only been a long time, and it has become like this. I'm afraid I will find an elderly person outside. His body and bones are much better than You Ning's.
What the doctor said was somewhat different from what Mrs. Qi thought.
Mrs. Qi thought that Youning had been missing for such a long time because she was killed by thieves and might experience some nightmares.
She lifted Youning's sleeves, the shougong sand on her arm was still there, it seemed that she was wrong.
But what the doctor said was much scarier than she thought.
In this day and age, regardless of whether you enter the palace or not, offspring are very important.
There are three kinds of unfilial piety, and no one is the greatest.
Even if Youning didn't want to enter the palace, she still wanted to marry after all. Who could accept a wife who couldn't bear children?
Her You Ning, how come her life is so bitter.
"Doctor, is there any way, I can't have no children"
The doctor shook his head. This had already hurt the foundation. What he said was relatively serious. There should be many external injuries on the girl's body, and it was not convenient for him to check.
"I can only recuperate as much as possible, and it is almost impossible to fully recover."
The doctor prescribed some conditioning prescriptions, and then left.
You Ning was dirty, so Mrs. Qi asked a servant to prepare bath water, and then asked the maid to help You Ning clean herself.
Because of Yuning's cold syndrome, Mrs. Qi specially ordered the water temperature to be warmer, worrying that Yuning would feel cold.
Mrs. Qi took off the dirty clothes on You Ning herself, but what she saw were the scars on You Ning's body.
There are some faint bruising marks that can hardly be seen clearly, and the deep mark on the shoulder is still bright red, with only a thin layer of scab. It seems that the movement is more violent, and the wound will tear again. .
There are traces on the front and back, which should be pierced by a sword.
Such a serious wound, even if healed, will definitely leave scars.
And that's not all. There is a long mark on You Ning's back. This mark has scabbed over. I just don't know if the wound is deep or if it will leave a scar.
What has happened to her poor daughter during this time?
In the past, he was someone who would hurt for a long time even if he fell or broke his skin, but now he has so many wounds on his body.
The servant girl helped Mrs. Qi carry You Ning into the bathtub. Mrs. Qi helped You Ning wipe her body while crying while looking at the wound on You Ning.
She felt sorry for You Ning and was also angry with herself.
Why did I slap her in the face without asking her the whole story?
"Madam, let us come, and you go and have a rest."
Seeing the injuries on You Ning's body, these servant girls feel distressed, let alone Mrs. Qi.
Moreover, Mrs. Qi has been praying for blessings during this period, and she has very little time to sleep every day. Now that You Ning has returned, although she has experienced some twists and turns, she finally came back alive, and Mrs. Qi can finally feel relieved.
When the time comes, Youning will be fine, but Mrs. Qi will collapse.
"It's okay, I'll come by myself."
Mrs. Qi personally helped Youning take a bath, changed into an inner garment, sent her back to the couch, covered her with a quilt, and rested with her.
