Revenge of the First Daughter - Chapter 426
Chapter 426 Faint Light
Rong Jin got out of bed and lit the oil lamp in the room. He turned around and poured a cup of tea outside.
When the oil lamp was lit, Yun Xiao’s eyes stabbed with pain, making it even more numb and unbearable.
She immediately reached out and rubbed her hand. When Yun Xiao removed her hand, she blinked her eyes again before opening them. However, after opening them, she suddenly felt like there was a little starlight in front of her. Although it was very small, Yun Xiao was still inexplicably happy.
This was the first time in a month that she could see something, even though she didn’t even see a trace of it.
If Rong Jin hadn’t lit the fire in the room, Yun Xiao probably wouldn’t have felt that she could see anything.
However, although she could not see clearly and could only feel the shadow of a light, Yun Xiao was already satisfied. This meant that her eyes were improving. There was an impulse in her heart to tell Rong Jin immediately. She opened her mouth and swallowed the words that reached her heart.
Just now, he was still in a fit of temper with Rong Jin. Wasn’t he saying that he was wrong to talk at this time? It was clearly Rong Jin himself who couldn’t wait to send her away. Moreover, his eyes could only see a little light. It was unknown if he could recover. If his eyes couldn’t recover, he would only let Rong Jin accompany him in the end.
Yun Xiao clearly knew that the medicine to treat her eye disease had been used up, and she didn’t know where to find the Seven Leaves One Branch Flower. The words she used made Rong Jin risk his life to retrieve a medicinal herb.
After telling Rong Jin, wouldn’t he let Rong Jin search for the whereabouts of the Seven Leaves Flower?
He was about to return to West Vietnam, how could she use such a trivial matter to hinder him?
After thinking for a while, Yun Xiao had already made a decision in her heart.
After Rong Jin returned, Yun Xiao had already returned to normal. She took the cup in Rong Jin’s hand and drank a mouthful of water, then said softly, “Thank you.”
Rong Jin looked at Yun Xiao’s figure lying down again. A faint peculiarity flashed in his eyes. Then, he took the cup and sat down on the soft couch next door again. He lay down on his back and stared at the figure opposite him, as if he would never be able to see it again.
Yun Xiao could feel that Rong Jin was looking at her, but she didn’t know what to say, so she pretended not to know and continued to pretend to be asleep.
She didn’t expect that this sleep would actually fall asleep. When she opened her eyes again, Yunxiao realized that Rong Jin was no longer in the room.
Yun Xiao blinked her eyes and rubbed them for a moment before raising her head to look outside. She did not expect that she would actually see specks of white light reflected in her eyes. It was very faint, but it could already be said that she was not dreaming last night. Her eyes were improving because it really happened to her.
Thinking that her eyes had improved and that she might be able to see the world around her one day, Yun Xiao’s mood became better. She put on her clothes and walked out of the door. Just as she walked into the small living room, she heard Qing Mo’s voice. “Miss, you’re up.”
Yun Xiao followed her voice and looked over. She only saw a faint blue light in her eyes. She could not see clearly, but it was much better than before. She nodded and said, “Mm, where have you been these past few days?” In the past few days, Qing Mo and Qing Liu seemed to have disappeared. She did not see them at all.
After Qing Mo respectfully replied, he looked at Yun Xiao and glanced into her eyes. Then, he said, “Young Master Rong said that the girl is going back to the capital. Let this servant come and escort the girl back.” “I was going to chase after her with Qing Liu. However, I was poisoned at that time, so I was taken away by Qing Liu to recover from her injuries.”
Yun Xiao’s body stiffened slightly, and then the corner of his mouth revealed a faint mocking smile. He couldn’t wait to send her away and brought Qing Mo back early in the morning.
She didn’t feel good in her heart, but Yun Xiao didn’t say anything. She only asked softly, “Alright, have you eaten yet?”
“This servant has already used it. This servant will serve the girl to wash up, right?” Qing Mo immediately went over to serve Yun Xiao, but Yun Xiao refused.
These past few days, she was self-reliant. She tried to do everything she could. Naturally, there was no need for others to serve her when she washed up. Even if she said, “No need, just pack up your things first.”
After Yun Xiao finished washing up, Rong Jin also brought in breakfast that he had already prepared. The two of them had breakfast silently. Yun Xiao was about to turn around and leave. However, just as she took a step forward, she heard Rong Jin’s deep voice from behind her. “I will have someone deliver the poison from the acacia herb to you every once in a while. In addition, I will also refine the real antidote as soon as possible. Be careful on your way.”
Yun Xiao only felt a burst of pain in her heart. Then, she turned to look at Rong Jin, her gaze carrying a slight look, suppressing the strange feeling in her heart. She said loudly, “Aren’t you going to send me off?” She had never cared about the poison of the Acacia Grass, and with him around, she could rest assured.
Rong Jin’s voice was indifferent, making it impossible for anyone to hear anything unusual. “I won’t send you off anymore. With Qing Mo and Qing Liu escorting you along the way, nothing will happen to you.”
When Yun Xiao heard this, her heart froze and she nodded, “Alright.”
He only turned around and the tenderness on his face disappeared. Instead, it carried an indescribable sense of loss.
Lang Bu walked out. Yun Xiao restrained all the peculiarities on her face. Her heart was filled with bitterness, but she did not turn around once. Just as she left, Qing Mo welcomed her over. “Young lady, let’s go.”
Yun Xiao’en said as she walked out with Qing Mo. However, the small hands beneath his wide sleeves were tightly clenched together.
She was the one who suggested returning to the capital, but the bitterness in her heart was unbearable.
Before she could reach the courtyard gate, she heard a commotion outside the courtyard. She frowned and opened the door. Yun Xiao could vaguely feel a lot of people shaking in front of her, but she could not see a single person clearly.
She could not see them, but she could feel from their voices that these people were the citizens of Rice Fragrance Village.
When the people saw Yun Xiao come out, they immediately greeted him, “Madam Rong, are you going out? Why isn’t the Medicine Hall open today? My grandson is a little uncomfortable and wants to see Doctor Rong.”
Ever since arriving at Rice Fragrance Village, both she and Rong Jin had been married. Presumably, she would leave today, and Rong Jin would soon leave as well. Therefore, the Medicine Hall would no longer be open.
Yun Xiao nodded to the crowd, “We have some matters to attend to today, so the Medicine Hall should not open. However, Doctor Rong hasn’t left yet, so you can look for him to treat him first.”
When the people of Rice Fragrance Village heard Yun Xiao’s words, they were all grateful. What Yun Xiao was thinking was that there shouldn’t be many people listening to the footsteps of these people outside. Even if Rong Jin treated them, it wouldn’t take much time.
Seeing the people enter the courtyard, Yun Xiao felt a little nostalgic in her heart, but in the end, she still left with Qing Mo and Qing Liu.
Just as she left the courtyard, she heard a burst of hurried footsteps running over. Yun Xiao looked sideways and could only see a blurry rosy red. No matter how much she looked, she couldn’t see it clearly. She looked curiously and didn’t know who it was.
“Madam Rong, where are you going?” Before he could get close, he heard the woman’s voice.
When Yun Xiao heard this voice, she already knew who this woman was. It was Chen Xiao, daughter of the village chief of Rice Fragrance Village. She was also the woman who Rong Jin had saved from the mountain. After recovering from her injuries, she often came to their courtyard to run, especially the most diligent one. Sometimes, she would help take care of the patients and ask them to queue up. Why would she help the patients get medicine?
When Yun Xiao saw her, she stopped and whispered, “Miss Chen is here. I want to go far away. If Miss Chen is fine, I’ll go first.”
Chen Xiao saw that she was leaving, and even though he was stunned for a moment, he said disappointedly, “How can you leave? Where’s Doctor Rong? Doesn’t he come with you?”
Yun Xiao smiled faintly, “He’s not leaving now.”
Chen Xiao’s eyes lit up when he heard this, and he immediately said happily, “Doctor Rong is not leaving?”
Yun Xiao graciously said. Seeing that Chen Xiao wanted to pull her to say something else, she sighed and turned around to get into the carriage.
Chen Xiao saw him. The smile on his face widened. Then, she thought of something wrong with her saying this in front of Yun Xiao, However, when he thought of Yun Xiao being blind anyway, he couldn’t see anything, and it didn’t matter. He was stunned when he saw the two ice-cold mountains beside Yun Xiao. He looked at Yun Xiao and said, “Madam Rong, don’t misunderstand, there are still many patients in the village. I’m afraid that after Doctor Rong leaves, these patients’ illnesses will worsen in the future.”
Yun Xiao gave a casual kindness and felt a little irritated in her heart, “No problem.”
Chen Xiao saw that Yun Xiao was cold and ignorant, so she couldn’t live with it on the surface. However, these days, she knew that Yun Xiao had such a temperament and wasn’t angry. It was just that her expression wasn’t good. She privately thought that a useless and invisible woman like Yun Xiao wasn’t worthy of Rong Jin. However, the two of them were already married, so she had no other choice.
Yun Xiao’s expression was gloomy. It was obvious that she had quarreled with Rong Jin. In addition, the two people beside Yun Xiao were ice-cold, so they did not look good together. They could not help but guess Yun Xiao’s identity. Perhaps Yun Xiao had secretly escaped and was now captured by her family.
Looking at Yun Xiao’s expression again, the more she looked at it, the more happy she was. If this is the case, then she might have a chance. She said loudly, “Then Madam Rong, take your time.”
Hearing Chen Xiao’s voice, Yun Xiao’s expression became even gloomier, and her heart became even more irritated. She got into the carriage and sat in it, but her mood could not be calmed down for a long time.
Qing Mo looked coldly at Chen Xiao. He saw the intentions in that woman’s eyes the most clearly. He sneered in his heart and snorted coldly. Then, he turned around and sat on the carriage.
After Qing Liu got into the carriage, he immediately drove the carriage away.
After the carriage left, Rong Jin paced forward, his gaze chasing after the carriage for a long time, completely ignoring Chen Xiao.
Chen Xiao saw that she was obviously staying beside Rong Jin, but she couldn’t get a look from him. Just as she was about to speak, she heard Rong Jin say, “I have already written down the prescriptions and medicines that the people of Rice Fragrance Village want to use. Please, Miss Chen, go help distribute those medicines to the villagers.”
After he finished speaking, he walked into the courtyard, took the horse, and chased after him.
Chen Xiao was unwilling, but the figure left very quickly. Before she could shout, it had already disappeared. He furiously twisted the corner of his clothes and said, “You haven’t said where you’re going yet. Do you want to return it?”
