Shi Anran was on the ground, so no one could see the smile on her lips. The heavens were truly helping her, letting her father come at this time.
She crawled up, turned around, and saw a tall powerful figure walking over. It was Shi Yu. His eyes were bloodshot, and he couldn't hide the fatigue between his brows. His black hair was white at the temples, so it was not hard to tell how big his mother had been to his father.
Goodbye, Father. Her tears flowed uncontrollably as she threw herself into his arms, ignoring all the rules.
In her previous life, ever since she was willing to be a concubine, Shi Yu had said that he would treat his as if he wasn't his daughter.
Shi Yu patted Shi Anran's shoulder, her fatherly attitude showing no doubt. After sweeping a glance over the third wife, Shi Yu stopped and asked in a deep voice, "My daughter is fine and well, why has she gone mad?"
The third lady's face was stiff like a sheet of paper, but she reacted very quickly. She bowed and put on a look of deep concern, "Master, just now, young lady was too sad, you actually said that you saw Madam. I was worried that young lady had met with some mishap, that's why I immediately cried out.
As she said that, Shi Anyi pulled out her handkerchief and covered his eyes. His red eyes looked extremely pitiful: "That's right, before Madame left, you had to entrust your big sister to Mother. If anything happened to big sister, how could Mother rest easy?! Furthermore, the pain of losing your mother has been a great blow to me. If something were to happen to elder sister, it would also be within reason for me to have a good relationship with her. "
Not to mention Shi Yu, even the Shi Anran of his previous life thought that they were not his own mother, but what about the reality?
She tugged at the corner of Shi Yu's clothes, and with doubt in her eyes, she said: "Isn't that place my mother's? Why did my visit with my mother make my aunt react so much when I spoke to her? Aren't we all watching over our mother? "
There were a few questions in a row, but they were all words of understatement that made Shi Yu realize that he had misunderstood. He glanced at the two men and said unhappily, "Don't play catch-up."
Having been born in the backyard, he knew a lot of things. He also knew how difficult it was for a child to lose its mother.
When Shi Anyi saw her father beating up her mother, she immediately stood up. "It was Big Sis who said something about fish or something …"
"Shut up, it's my fault." How could Third Madam allow this matter to be mentioned? Although the evidence had been destroyed, there was no guarantee that there would be any mistakes. Shi Anran was also aware of this, so she maintained her indifferent attitude. Only Shi Anyi didn't know anything, and she protected him out of kindness, but in exchange for this reaction, she couldn't help but lower her head, and tears rolled down her face.
The Third Madam only had one woman and thought of her as a treasure. Seeing how much she cared about Shi Anran, she could only bow weakly and say, "I was wrong, it's my fault if I was worried. I will definitely not do it again in the future."
Hearing her words, Shi Anran hid in Shi Yu's embrace and revealed a smile to them, it was a kind smile that a mother would usually give, but in their eyes, it was like a Suicide Talisman.
How could the third wife endure this? Her hands that were under her sleeves were about to tear the handkerchief into pieces, but she still maintained her usual amiable attitude and spoke to Shi Anyi: "Quickly go and help the big miss rest. You are all young, and have to kneel for such a long time. She wiped the corner of her eye and wiped away the tears that didn't exist.
How familiar that sounded. Shi Anran remembered clearly that when she had asked Shi Anyi to help her to leave, he had said those exact words. Then, they both lost their balance on the stairs and fell down.
She fell to the ground. Fortunately she had protected her face, otherwise, her face would have been ruined. However, Shi Anyi had directly pressed down on her body.
How could she not accept such good intentions and gifts? How could he not give her one?
The Shi Estate was not small in the capital, and was divided into four courtyards. The main courtyard was to the east, and was decorated with peonies. Everywhere it went, it was lush and verdant, and the houses were exquisite. Not far away from the courtyard was a lake.
Since Shi Anyi was willing to support her, Shi Anran might as well place more than half of her weight on top of her. Although the former was vicious, she was only ten years old, and with great difficulty, sweat trickled down her forehead.
Shi Anran looked at her and faked: "Why not call someone to help me? I'm afraid my sister's body won't be able to take it."
Shi Anyi hated that she could not throw her out, but for the sake of planning, she could only endure. She smiled and said: "Because my mother passed away, I did not eat for a few days, it was so light." After saying that, she covered her mouth with her hands, pretending to be worried. "Sister mentioned something about sister's sorrows, I deserve to die."
Shi Anran said faintly: "The scarier thing is not that the person I miss has died, but that the person I hate is still alive."
Shi Anyi was shocked, but then she felt a cold feeling on her back, and the two of them were like butterflies with their wings cut off, flying down quickly.
With this fall, both of them were injured.
Relying on her only remaining consciousness, she shifted away from Shi Anyi and shouted for help. When she saw Shi Yu rushing over, she said sorrowfully, "Father, save me!"
The imperial physicians from the palace came in and out, and they came to the conclusion that the young mistress was physically weak and had gone through a lot of torment before fainting due to unconsciousness.
