Chapter 158 Continue to suffer
"It's not that she's not sad, she's just too sad." Song Qingci especially understood Yao Niang's state, because she had a similar experience.
When people are too sad, they will calm down and stop crying or making a fuss. Some people can even socialize and work normally. However, this is just an illusion.
It is because we are too sad and cannot accept the reality, so the brain gives false instructions to the body.
In this state, under good circumstances, in one or two days, the person will come out of it, accept the reality, cry and vent the emotions, and then return to normal.
If it is a bad situation, this state will last for a long time and the person will basically be ruined.
In modern times, she knew of examples where some people would continue in this state until they died.
There is a special word to describe such people - the walking dead.
I hope this Yao Niang is not such a person.
Yin Xing didn't quite understand what her young mistress said, but she believed unconditionally in every word she said.
Song Qingci thought about it, then walked to the table, wrote a prescription, handed it to Yinxing, and said, "Go to the pharmacy and ask the medicine boy to prepare the medicine according to this prescription, and send it to Yao Niang after it is boiled."
Since she took over the power of the family, she arranged a little medicine boy to work in the pharmacy of Chixiao Courtyard, who usually helped to sort out the medicinal materials. Because she was really too busy and had no time to manage the pharmacy.
However, the important medicinal materials and his research are still kept in her space, and that cannot be delegated to others.
In the evening, Yin Xing hurried back to Chi Xiao Courtyard. When she saw Song Qingci, she said, "Young Madam! Yao Niang vomited blood!"
"Oh." Song Qingci didn't react much after hearing this.
"Young Madam, did you hear clearly? I said that Yao Niang vomited blood. After I gave her the medicine, I watched her drink it. However, before I could clean up, she vomited all of a sudden. Not only did she vomit out the medicine she had just drunk, but she also vomited a large mouthful of blood." Yinxing suspected that she had just run in a hurry and spoke before she had even caught her breath, causing the young madam to not understand what she said at all. So she explained the whole cause and effect again in detail.
"I heard it clearly." Song Qingci's reaction was still indifferent.
"Is it okay to vomit blood?!" Yinxing was really scared, and her first reaction was to run back and tell the young lady.
"That's good." Song Qingci finally finished copying the last account book of the day. She casually put the pen on the table, rubbing her sore wrist and said, "She was depressed, and spitting out that blood was a good thing for her. If you hadn't run back in such a panic, you would have found that she was in a much better state after spitting out the blood. "
"Madam, do you mean that bowl of medicine was specially made to help Yao Niang vomit blood?!" Yin Xing realized it a little later.
"Yes!" Song Qingci began to organize the things he needed to do tomorrow.
She must be exhausted from doing this every day!
It was such a tiring and stressful job, but every single one of the women from the wealthy families wanted to grab it. Song Qingci didn't understand what they were fighting for.
She wanted to get rid of this matter as soon as possible.
Fortunately, after so much time spent sorting it out, there isn't much left.
She will soon be able to enjoy the fruits of her labor.
"Do you really not need to visit Yao Niang?!" Yin Xing still couldn't let it go.
The Yao Niang she saw was really pitiful. She was miserable enough, and now she heard the news that her whole family was dead. This blow was really too great. She didn't even dare to think if she could still survive.
"No need. She has her mother's people watching over her, so nothing will happen. Please help me sort out the things I need to do tomorrow." She has already done what she should do.
Even if she went to see him now, it would not be of any substantial help to Yao Niang.
It all depends on her.
After receiving instructions from the young lady, Yinxing hurried forward to help.
As she sorted out the things, she asked, "Madam, have you never worried that Yao Niang would commit suicide because of excessive sadness?!"
"No!" Song Qingci answered firmly. Others didn't know what Yao Niang had experienced before.
Only a few people in the general's mansion who had come into contact with Yao Niang knew that she was injured. Yao Niang's injury was caused by a bad guy who beat her up when she came to seek refuge with her distant relative, Lou Shi. She was accidentally saved by the young lady when she was out.
No matter how much, they won’t know.
However, she knew every detail of what Yao Niang had experienced.
Someone who could survive in such an environment and had planned to escape more than once would not commit suicide because of excessive sadness. At most, he would become a soulless walking corpse.
But Song Qingci's bowl of medicine also cut off her path to continue escaping reality and becoming a walking corpse.
Now that you've survived, you should live well.
In this way, the medicine she had used before could play its greatest value.
Although Yin Xing didn't understand why her young lady was so confident about this matter, she would definitely not undermine her young lady.
"Madam, these are the account books that need to be sorted out tomorrow." Yinxing was very quick.
I have already roughly divided the books that need to be copied and calculated every day, and now I just need to further refine them. It is basically not difficult.
"The things in the mansion have basically been done. What we need to copy tomorrow is the revenue of the shops in the general's mansion." Yinxing put the sorted booklet on Song Qingci's right hand side so that he could take it tomorrow.
"The general's mansion only has this many shops?!" Song Qingci looked at the few thin books, a little surprised.
Compared to the various messy account books inside the General's Mansion, the revenue books of this store are too few, right? !
"I'm not sure, but all the revenues of the shops are here. I've looked for it several times. I can't make a mistake." Although Yinxing can read, she can only read common words. She seems to have a hard time understanding the contents of the account books.
Therefore, at present, she can only help with simple tasks. She can't do more.
Song Qingci raised his hand and picked up a book at random, flipping through a few pages, his head buzzing as he looked at the sparse records.
Suddenly, she had a very bad feeling.
I guess she will have to continue to endure this fatigue in the short term.
