Chapter 55: Tired and going
Su Cha’s footsteps were so fast. He thinks that if he quickly sent back Xiao Tianyao, he could still see how Lin Chujiu sews those injured guard’s wound.
To tell the truth, Su Cha is very curious to her medical skill. Especially, when Doctor Wu and Housekeeper Cao told him that she had godly skills. So, he really wanted to see it for himself. And now that he had the chance, he doesn’t want to let it go.
After sending back Xiao Tianyao to his place. Su Cha wanted to go as soon as possible, but he hasn’t turned his body yet when he heard Xiao Tianyao’s voice: “Not here.”
“Ah?” Su Cha admits that his brain is not good, but he really couldn’t understand Xiao Tianyao’s words right now.
“Didn’t you want to go back to your study room?” Xiao Tianyao was pondering all the way round because Su Cha didn’t ask where he would want to go.
“Where do you want to go anyway?”
“Hmm … …” Xiao Tianyao thinks for a moment before he said: “To Lin Chujiu’s courtyard.”
“What?” Su Cha almost want to dig out his ears: “Did I heard you wrong?” Xiao Tianyao actually took the initiative to see Lin Chujiu? Is this… … a sign that there will be a bloody rain tomorrow?
Xiao Tianyao doesn’t see any problem, so he declined to answer him and just said: “Hurry.”
“Very well.” Under Xiao Tianyao’s pressure, Su Cha pushed him to Lin Chujiu’s courtyard even though he’s full of grievances. But throughout the way, he couldn’t help but complain about a thing or two: “Why not just let your guard push you to her place? Why do you need me to push you there? I’m not better than them anyway.”
But unfortunately, no matter how much Su Cha complain, Xiao Tianyao only ignored him as if he doesn’t hear anything in the first place. So, Su Cha almost vomits blood.
Lin Chujiu’s courtyard is not that far from Xiao Tianyao’s study room. So, they arrived at her place after two minutes. And if he still wanted to return in there, he might still be able to see her medical skills.
However, Su Cha just decided to wait for Lin Chujiu to get back and ask her directly on how did she sewn their wound. But… …
“You can go now.” As soon as Xiao Tianyao arrived at Lin Chujiu’s place, he began to chase him away.
Su Cha almost cried because he felt wronged, but still, he tried to say: “If I go now, who will push you back?” For almost half of the day, he pushed his wheelchair all around the place, but now he doesn’t want him to stay? Isn’t it too cruel?
“Is the Wangfu missing a people?” Xiao Tianyao simply looks at Su Cha. But thankfully, he didn’t say that Su Cha is silly to forget that.
“If Xiao Wangfu is not missing a people, then why you didn’t let them push you earlier?” Life can be so bad, a bridge that has no river would feel very shameful, right?
“If all the servants in the Xiao Wangfu are like you, then this place would get in chaos.” Xiao Tianyao plainly said hid harsh words.
So, Su Cha almost spits out blood, but then he just said: “I am a very busy person and I still need to count ten thousand of silvers from all the branches of Su’s family business so I’m heading back now. I can’t just leisurely stay here.” His other servant could push him back, so he doesn’t need to aggravate himself.
“Su’s family business can run smoothly without you.” Xiao Tianyao bluntly cut off his words with a knife. So now, Su Cha finally understand how Liu Bai felt whenever Xiao Tianyao gets moody to him.
Xiao Tianyao is simply a person that doesn’t know how to have a good talk.
“I’ll go now, I won’t stop you from having a time alone with your wife.” But, when Su Cha got outside, his heart felt really depressed, so he turned around and said: “Oh, by the way, Wangye, you are so mean, so don’t you feel afraid that your Wangfei might suddenly abandon you?”
After saying those words, Su Cha didn’t dare to look at Xiao Tianyao’s facial expression and just walked very fast as if a dog was chasing him.
Su Cha got scared to Xiao Tianyao, so he didn’t bother to go and find Lin Chujiu and just hurriedly left the Xiao Wangfu. But, he secretly made a decision that he won’t visit the Xiao Wangfu for the mean time as revenge to Xiao Tianyao.
On the other hand, Lin Chujiu still doesn’t know that the event she was regarding as terrifying is now waiting for her in her courtyard. After all, she was still helping Doctor Wu to treat the other patients and decided to leave when everything is already settled.
When they finished, Lin Chujiu felt pain from her waist so she tried rubbing it with her hand to make herself feel comfortable. Then, she tried putting up together all her used medical supplies so that Doctor Wu could just burn them all. After cleaning up, Lin Chujiu handed her medical box to Zhenzhu to help her carry it.
She was really tired now and felt like she doesn’t have any more strength to even carry a box.
At this point of time, the sky had already turned dark, so Lin Chujiu could no longer see the road. She asks Doctor Wu to find her a lantern, but Housekeeper Cao came with a small lantern and respectfully said: “Wangfei, this slave will send you back.”
“No, it’s fine.” Lin Chujiu knows that Housekeeper Cao is busy and this place, where all the wounded guardsmen stay still need him. So, Lin Chujiu flatly refused his kindness. However, Housekeeper Cao still arranged two guardsmen to escort her.
Originally, Lin Chujiu ask for a lantern so that she could walk on her own. But, when she remembered the assassin this afternoon. Lin Chujiu had painted a big “X” for her plan earlier from the bottom of her heart.
It’s still not safe inside the Xiao Wangfu, so if she walk alone and something suddenly happens, then she wouldn’t get an opportunity to ask for help. So, it’s still better not to walk alone.
And because Lin Chujiu still wanted to live, she no longer protests and just started walking slowly. Lin Chujiu deliberately walk in that phase because she’s really tired. Her waist and neck feel sore, and both her hands feel numb because she grips the suture and supports herself for a long time. And also, her stomach has long been emptied now so she couldn’t bear the hunger anymore.
Lin Chujiu never felt so tired for a long time now. Although she works in the hospital for five to six hours before because of surgery, at least the surgery was pre-schedule so she simply can prepare herself. Unlike today that everything seems in an urgent.
Lin Chujiu really had a hard time to walked, so she couldn’t help but complained inside her mind why her courtyard is so far from the East side of the mansion. And when Zhenzhu finally noticed that Lin Chujiu is having difficulty to walk, she came closer to her and asked if she will allow her to go and find a sedan.
“If there is a sedan, then why you didn’t say that earlier?” Lin Chujiu gasped for breath and asked.
Zhenzhu got panic and immediately tried to explain: “This slave thought Wangfei already know, so… …” Before, in front of the injured guardsmen, Lin Chujiu’s face was full of spirit, so she thought she’s not that tired and that’s why she didn’t mention it.
But now…
The road was too dark, so if she didn’t look at Lin Chujiu carefully, she wouldn’t really notice.
“Next time, if something similar happens, you can remind me.” She is not really the Eldest Miss of Lin Family. She didn’t grow up in this place, so even if it’s just a common sense for them. She won’t really be able to remember it.
A long time had passed now.
So Lin Chujiu felt even more tired. But, when she was about to arrived at her courtyard and saw a dim light inside the house, she really wanted to cry. She wanted to have a fight with the medical system if possible because she saved three seriously injured men today and bandages the wound of the other guardsmen, but she didn’t even receive a simple reward!
The medical system must be broken! Or it’s just simply a fake!
Lin Chujiu felt so tired and hungry, so when she finally arrived at her courtyard she didn’t even have a time to thank the Guardsmen that have escorted her because she and Zhenzhu saw Feicui walking in hurry towards her: “Wangfei, you finally came back. Wangye had been waiting for you for a long time now to see you.”
“What did you say?” Lin Chujiu’s stagger and almost fell on the ground: “Wangye, came?”
Did she do something outrageous again that’s why Xiao Tianyao was looking for her again?… …
