Whose little lady is so crazy?
Chapter 244 Promise Me One Condition
Chapter 244 Promise Me One Condition
When Hong Xiaoduo sat up, Feiyan had already gotten up and lit the candle.
When I opened the door, I saw several people outside, Quan Jinghuai with a frown on his face, the innkeeper with an apologetic look on his face, and the guard from the evening who looked haggard and anxious.
"Young lady, I tried to stop him, but he..." the waiter explained quickly.
Without waiting for the waiter to finish, the guard knelt on one knee and clasped his fists in front of Hong Xiaoduo: "Please, young lady, save my wife. I know this is very rude, but, right now, only young lady can save her."
"But I'm not a doctor." Hong Xiaoduo also frowned and responded. She naturally knew that people came to ask for help, not to seek medical treatment, so there was no misunderstanding that she was a doctor or anything.
She frowned not because she was disturbed from her sound sleep, but because she felt that the matter must be very serious. Otherwise, how could such a grown man come to kneel down and beg for mercy in the middle of the night.
"Please, young lady, just let that young master meet my lady, the young master who was scared by my lady in the evening." The guard said with difficulty.
It was really hard to bring up such an impertinent and unreasonable thing, but apart from this, he really couldn't think of any other solution.
"What's wrong with your wife?" Hong Xiaoduo asked.
Although it's an urgent matter, since the other person somehow knows everything, I naturally have to ask.
"Just tell me where she is now?" Hong Xiaoduo asked again when she saw his anxious expression.
"It's just outside the inn." The innkeeper had just finished explaining to the other guests who were woken up nearby, turned around and heard Hong Xiaoduo asking, and rushed to tell her.
"Take me to see it first." Hong Xiaoduo said to the guard.
When the other party heard this, he opened his mouth to say something, hesitated for a moment, then stood up and walked out.
Hong Xiaoduo signaled Quan Jinghuai to stay upstairs while she went over to see what the situation was. She didn't know anything and of course couldn't take Kaiyang with her rashly.
When walking out, the guard briefly said that the lady was taken back to her residence after he pressed her sleeping point in the evening. After waking up, she started crying and making a fuss. Not only did she refuse to eat or drink, she even broke the bowl of medicine soup, picked up a piece of porcelain and put it against her neck, threatening to die and come out to find Kaiyang whom she met in the evening.
No matter how the people around her tried to coax her, it was no use. If they got a little closer, she would really slit her throat. The servants around her were really helpless, so they brought her out to look for someone.
They went from one inn to another, fearing that the entire inn would be in unrest. After some discussion, his wife finally agreed to wait outside.
While they were talking, Hong Xiaoduo followed them to the outside of the inn. Under the hanging lanterns, a carriage was parked in the middle of the road, with a coachman and the maid whom they had met in the evening.
When the coachman and the maid saw Hong Xiaoduo, they all looked behind her. Seeing that there was no one behind her, they immediately showed worry on their faces.
The guard didn't bother to explain to them. He walked straight to the window of the carriage and said softly, "Madam, the child's family is here."
After saying that, he opened the car window curtain and signaled Hong Xiaoduo that she could come forward.
Hong Xiaoduo stepped forward. There was a lantern hanging in front of the carriage and the lights were also on in the carriage, so Hong Xiaoduo could see the situation inside very clearly.
The lady inside looked even worse than in the evening. Hong Xiaoduo looked inside, and she also stared out.
A hand so thin that veins were visible was tightly grasping a piece of broken porcelain and pressing it against the throat. The white neck had been cut, and although it was not very deep, the collar of the clothes had been stained red.
"Please, let me see the child, okay?" The lady's lips trembled for a long time, and she begged in a hoarse and stammering voice, and her eyes suddenly turned red.
"Let me think about it." Hong Xiaoduo said, walked a few steps to the side, and motioned the guard to come over.
"What's going on? Why is she so persistent in wanting to see my child?" Hong Xiaoduo asked in a low voice. "It's a long story." The guard didn't know where to start.
Hong Xiaoduo frowned and interrupted: "Let's make it short and get to the point."
"My wife's only son died unexpectedly before he was even one year old." The guard thought for a moment and responded.
I am obviously at least half a decade older than her, but why do I seem like her junior?
Hong Xiaoduo understood that this lady had heart disease and mental problems because of the loss of her son, no wonder!
Turning back to the carriage window, he said in a voice that was involuntarily softer: "I can promise to let you see the child, but I have conditions."
Hearing that she could see the child, the woman's eyes lit up: "You tell me."
"It's definitely not appropriate for you to meet him like this. You will scare him. Children are timid. Madam should know this better than me, right?" Hong Xiaoduo said, pointing to the woman's collar.
The woman immediately looked down and saw bloodstains on her clothes.
“If you want to see the child, throw away the things in your hands first, let’s go to a clinic to bandage the wound, clean up a little, and change clothes, how about that?
Of course, you can also refuse to agree, and I can also refuse to let you see the child. " After Hong Xiaoduo finished speaking, he looked at the other party.
"You, really agreed? You're not kidding me?" the woman asked in disbelief.
Facing the poor woman, Hong Xiaoduo showed no impatience. "If you don't believe me, then just pretend I didn't say anything. I'll go back to sleep."
After saying that, she made a move to leave.
The guards, maids and coachmen standing nearby were all listening attentively. The three of them could tell that Hong Xiaoduo said this on purpose. While they felt a little relieved, they also sighed that this strange young lady was so nice and willing to help.
"I believe it." An anxious response came from the carriage, fearing that Hong Xiaoduo was really gone.
Seeing their wife throw the porcelain pieces in her hand out of the car, the three men finally felt relieved.
"Okay, let's find a private clinic first." Hong Xiaoduo said to the guard.
"What about you, little lady?"
Hong Xiaoduo understood what he meant and immediately said, "I'll go with you."
Hearing her say this, the guard's expression immediately relaxed. He quickly looked both sides of the street and asked the driver to drive to the nearest clinic.
The clinic was closed at night. After knocking on the door and bandaging the neck wound, he returned to his residence and helped the woman wash and change into clean clothes.
Hong Xiaoduo was present when all these things were done, giving the woman peace of mind.
"Don't worry, young lady. Even when my lady is sick, she will only hurt herself and never attack others." The maid glanced at the lady looking in the mirror after washing, then turned around and whispered to Hong Xiaoduo.
Hong Xiaoduo nodded: "I know, otherwise, I wouldn't agree."
After looking in the mirror, the woman turned around and looked at Hong Xiaoduo with an urgent look.
"Then let's go." Hong Xiaoduo said...
