Shuxin knew that she shouldn't cry tonight. She tried to hold it in, but in the end, she couldn't help but lower her head. She didn't want everyone to see her cry. Suddenly, a piece of tissue was handed to her. Shuxin turned around and saw Cao Guifang looking at her lovingly. "Silly child," she whispered.
After Cao Guifang and Shu Youkang came in, Shuxin was afraid that they would be too reserved, so she sat between them.
Shuxin took the tissue. Her tears fell even harder. She lowered her head and took a while to calm down.
After dinner, Yao Huiqin asked the driver to send the gifts he prepared in advance to the Shu Family's house.
Shu Youkang was drunk. Shuxin was worried, so she followed him back to the Shu Family's house.
When they got home, Uncle Qiu and Shuxin helped Shu Youkang upstairs to Shu Youkang's bedroom.
On the way back, Shuxin had already asked the housekeeper to make some hangover soup. When they went upstairs, the housekeeper also went upstairs with the soup.
Shuxin took the soup from the housekeeper and said to Uncle Qiu and the housekeeper, "It's late. You should go and rest. I'll take care of things here."
After Shuxin fed Shu Youkang the soup, she got a basin of water for him to wipe his face and hands.
Shu Youkang held Shuxin's hand tightly in a daze. "Ruolan, our daughter is all grown up. She's going to get married … She's going to leave me just like you … I can't bear it … Why don't you come back to see her … You're so cruel …"
As Shu Youkang spoke, tears flowed out of the corners of his eyes.
Shu Xin's face was full of heartache as she wiped Shu Youkang's tears with a towel. Her voice was a little choked. "Dad, Xin 'er won't leave you like Mom … I'll come back to see you often … This is also my home …"
Shu Youkang seemed to have heard Shuxin's words. He slowly opened his eyes and saw that Shuxin's eyes were red. He wanted to reach out and touch her head, but because he was drunk, his hands and feet did not listen to him.
Shuxin held Shu Youkang's slightly raised hand and said, "Dad, don't think about Mom anymore. She heartlessly abandoned us. Let's just pretend that she doesn't exist in this world."
"I won't allow you to talk about your mother like that …" Shu Youkang's tone became stern.
"She heartlessly abandoned us, why are you still protecting her?"
Shu Youkang's drunken eyes dimmed. "Don't blame her … It's Daddy's fault … Daddy lied to her …"
Shuxin was stunned. "Dad, what are you talking about?"
"Don't blame your mother … It's all my fault … It's all my fault …" Shu Youkang repeated these words, her voice getting softer and softer.
Shuxin asked again, but Shu Youkang had already closed his eyes and fallen asleep.
…
When Yao Huiqin's physical examination results came out, Shuxin accompanied her to collect them.
All the test results were normal, but her blood pressure was a little high.
However, this was an old problem that Yao Huiqin herself knew. Moreover, she had been taking medicine to lower her blood pressure all this time without stopping.
At Yao Huiqin's age, she only had a little high blood pressure, but her body was considered healthy. Shu Youkang was only in his early forties, but he already had high blood pressure. Therefore, Shuxin knew that as long as she took care of her body, maintained a good mood, and took her medicine on time, there would not be much of a problem.
If that was the case, then why did Yao Huiqin die?
After she calmed down, Shuxin thought about it carefully. She remembered that the news she read was six months later. Could it be that Yao Huiqin's body still had problems during this time? Or was there another reason that caused Yao Huiqin's death?
