A life of two souls traveling through time

Chapter 225 Mu Liang Returns Home 1

"Madam, your body has always been affected by heart disease. Today, you are too sad, which caused you to be angry. I can only prescribe some medicine to calm your nerves and relieve depression." Doctor Sun, who was invited by the servant, got up and walked to the outer room after treating Madam Li. While writing a prescription, he continued to sigh to Li Yunye in front of him: "As the saying goes, physical illness is easy to cure, but mental illness is difficult to cure. Young Master, you have to persuade Madam to think more positively."

"Thank you, Doctor Sun." Li Yunye frowned and sighed.

After Doctor Sun wrote the prescription for Madam Li, he saw that Li Yunye also looked sick, and then he took his pulse:

"The yin and cold are very severe, and the yang is deficient. Did you catch the cold from the snow outside?" Feeling Master Li's weak pulse, Doctor Sun's expression gradually became solemn again.

"Well, until now I often have piercing pain below my knees, and I often feel cold all over..." Li Yunye nodded and said nothing else. He only told Doctor Sun truthfully about his other symptoms.

Sister Lan, who was standing by, couldn't help but tremble after hearing the young master's detailed account. Thinking that the young master must have suffered a lot on the road this time, she wiped away her tears with heartache.

"The evil cold has penetrated into the bones. We have to use medicine to slowly force the cold out. Young master, you must keep warm at all times in the future and avoid getting cold again, which will worsen your cold. Take these medicines first, and I will come back in a few days." Doctor Sun also sighed lightly, wrote down another prescription on the paper and continued to give instructions.

"Thank you, Doctor Sun." Li Yunye nodded again and thanked him.

"I was shocked to hear that Mr. Li passed away suddenly. I am deeply saddened. However, the dead cannot be brought back to life. I hope you and your wife will mourn your loss and not hurt yourselves any further." Before leaving, Doctor Sun bowed solemnly to Li Yunye and advised with regret.

"Thank you, Doctor Sun. Take care." Li Yunye also returned the greeting gratefully.

Afterwards, the servant sent Doctor Sun back to the pharmacy and got some medicine.

After seeing his mother fall asleep after taking the medicine, Li Yunye, under the persuasion of Sister Lan, decided to go back to Qingyun Garden to rest and wait until he was in better spirits before going to the vigil. As soon as he left the plum garden with the help of the maid, he almost bumped into the shopkeeper Yuan who was rushing to look for him.

"Sir, what should we do about Aunt Xin?" Seeing that he had frightened the young master, Shopkeeper Yuan hurried forward, patted the young master's back, and asked nervously.

"Have you been to the bamboo garden?" Li Yunye asked with a sigh.

“Oh, yes, this Concubine Xin is really…” Shopkeeper Yuan also sighed, but he didn’t say the rest of the words. After all, the Master has never liked Concubine Xin.

"She is a member of the Li family, so naturally she must be buried properly. You should ask someone to order a coffin first." Although Aunt Xin's death was sad, Li Yunye was now physically and mentally exhausted and had no energy to worry anymore.

The young master's words obviously made Manager Yuan stunned for a moment, but he also noticed the fatigue on the young master's face, so he didn't say much and turned around to get busy.

In the attic of Qingyun Garden, the maids and servants had already cleaned the room and lit the fire. Therefore, when Li Yunye entered the room alone, the heating in the room instantly surrounded him, and he felt sleepy. He went into the inner room, fell on the bed and fell asleep.

At the first watch of the night, Ange and Steward Li rushed back to the Li family from the farm. When they learned that the young master was resting, they did not disturb him. They went straight to the mourning hall. Steward Li, who had received the kindness and shelter of the master, could not help crying in the mourning hall.

Mu Liang, An Yun and Lao Zhou rushed back to Li's house at midnight. The three of them got off their horses and headed straight for the mourning hall. When Mu Liang saw his adoptive father's coffin, he let out the grief he had been holding back all the way and knelt in front of the mourning hall and cried.

A few days ago, he was still in Liangdu counting the days for his adoptive father and brother to return home safely, but he saw Lao Zhou running back in a hurry. Mu Liang thought that Lao Zhou had brought back news about Yan Yu, but he didn't expect that the Li family had encountered a disaster of mountain bandits on the way. Hearing the sad news of his adoptive father's tragic death, Mu Liang felt dizzy, but fortunately Lao Zhou supported him in time. When he learned that his brother was not seriously injured, he had the idea of ​​holding on. At this time, he had to rush back as soon as possible and couldn't let his brother Yunye carry it alone.

After hurriedly instructing the four stewards, Mu Liang prepared to return to Qile City with Lao Zhou. As soon as they left Liangdu, they ran into An Yun. He learned from An Yun in detail that his brother-in-law had fainted due to excessive grief, and he became even more worried, so he continued to rush south at full speed.

"How are the madam and the young master?" After crying for a while, Mu Liang calmed down and turned to ask Manager Yuan and An Ge who were waiting on the side.

"The madam was so sad that she vomited blood and fainted. The young master was also exhausted both physically and mentally. Doctor Sun came to see him. The madam took the medicine and fell asleep. The young master is also resting in the attic." Manager Yuan sighed again and replied.

When Mu Liang, who was always experienced and steady in his actions, came back, both Manager Yuan and the Li family servants breathed a sigh of relief.

"Manager Yuan, you have worked really hard today. It's getting late, so you should go home and have a rest. You will have to take care of the shop in the city tomorrow." Mu Liang stood up and bowed to Manager Yuan, who also looked tired.

"When should the shopkeepers of these four places be notified?" Shopkeeper Yuan nodded and then asked.

"Send someone to notify them tomorrow morning."

After Manager Yuan agreed, he said goodbye and left the house. With Manager Mu at Li's house, he naturally didn't have to worry.

Upon learning that Aunt Xin had also gone with his adoptive father, Mu Liang could not help but sigh. Without saying anything more, he gave a few instructions to Ange and Manager Li and asked them to arrange for Old Zhou to stay, then he went to Qingyun Garden alone.

In the attic room, Mu Liang walked to the bedside and looked at his brother who was still sleeping with a frown on his face. He felt distressed. It had been less than a month since they last met, but he didn't expect such a thing to happen. His brother had become so thin and haggard.

Mu Liang raised his hand and gently stroked Li Yunye's frowning brows. He felt even more guilty in his heart. If he had known earlier, he should have ignored his adoptive father's refusal and let Lao Zhou go with him. With one more person to protect him, perhaps his adoptive father would not... Thinking of this, Mu Liang couldn't help but shed tears again. He was afraid of disturbing his adoptive brother, so he quickly wiped his tears and got up to go to the outer room.

"Please light the calming and sleep-inducing incense." After calming down, Mu Liang opened the door and said to the maid waiting outside the room.

"But the master said he would keep vigil in the second half of the night and told us to wake him up at midnight." The maid replied to Mu Liang hesitantly.

"I'll take care of the wake, let him get some good sleep."

"Yes, Master Muliang."
