I WANT TO LIVE!

The Second Madam sat on the chair in a daze as if she had lost her brilliance. Her complexion was pale and her aura gloomy. After a long while, Su You’s soft voice came from the room. She then abruptly stood up and walked into the room.

Mu Yunyao got up and followed her. She saw Su You had already opened her eyes and was turned sideways beside the bed as if she wanted to say something. Seeing the Second Madam, her eyes revealed a look of attachment, “Mother …. I have made you worry....”

“You’ve just woken up, so your throat must be feeling a little uncomfortable. Quickly drink some warm waterand get some rest....”

Su You slightly shook her head and looked at Mu Yunyao, who was at the side. Her face revealed a slight smile, “You came as well … It’s really great that you’re here too....”

Mu Yunyao went up to check Su You’s pulse, “There’s still raw Pinellia ternata left in that bowl of medicine, but fortunately that Elder Sister Su You didn’t drink too much, and she also threw it.up. So right now, there’s nothing major wrong with her.”

“Yunyao, let’s talk outside later.” The Second Madam hurriedly gave Mu Yunyao a meaningful glance. She didn’t want Su You to know about these things. Just in case, as not to increase the burden in her heart.

Mu Yunyao did not think like that, “Second Aunt, I know you are worried about Elder Sister Su You, but you still have to let her know what she needs to know. Previously, she always thought that it was because her body was too weak that she dragged you and Second Uncle down, making her thought thatliving was a burden, that she had no strong will to live! If a person does not wish to live, even the Da Luo Jinxian cpul not save her.”

The Second Madam couldn’t stop herself from covering her mouth and crying. Su You, who was in her embrace, slowly blinked her eyes and started coughing. It was only after a long while did the Second Madam recover her strength. After that, Su You extended her hand and pulled Mu Yunyao tightly, “You … What do you mean by that.”

A trace of unbearable flashed through Second Madam’s eyes, but she nodded at Mu Yunyao, indicating for her to explain herself.

Mu Yunyao sat on the side of the bed and looked at Su You calmly, “The reason your body is so weak is that someone intentionally wants your life. Logically speaking, after being nurtured for so many years, it was normal for you to be twenty to thirty percent weaker than a normal girl, but never to the point where you are at the verge of death like today….”

Su You couldn’t help but cover her chest as he curled up into a ball.

The Second Madam cried out in fear and quickly hugged her, “You’er. Yunyao, quickly don’t say anymore. You’er, don’t scare your mother. What’s wrong with you? What’s the matter with you?”

Mu Yunyao stepped forward and pulled Su You up from Second Madam’s embrace, making her sit up straight. Her cold voice filled with unquestionable determination, “Su You, you have endured all these years of suffering. Can’t you bear this blow? If you are not strong, no one in this world can save you.”

Su You looked up, her face pale to the point of almost turning transparent, her entire body trembling uncontrollably, “I can’t live...”

“As long as you don’t want to die, as long as you believe in me, I’ll definitely let you live!” After Mu Yunyao finished speaking, she took out two silver needles from the needle bag she was carrying and pierced them into the acupoints on Su You’s chest.

Su You’s eyes widened hard as she felt the stifling feeling in her chest gradually dissipate. She looked at Mu Yunyao with a glimmer in her eyes, “You really can save me?”

“Like I said, as long as you don’t want to die, I can let you live.”

Su You grabbed onto Mu Yunyao’s arm tightly, her nails leaving small marks on her arm, “I don’t want to die. I want to live! I want to stay with Mother and Father! I want them to be happy. I want them to be happy and not to be sad because of me every day. I also want them to watch me get married and have children. Let them enjoy their relationship! I want to live!”

Mu Yunyao held her hand, “Alright! Then remember what you said today. No matter what, do not give up, and I will let you live!”

Su You slowly revealed a smile. Her eyes were no longer as lifeless as before. It seemed like a candle flame had been lit deep in the night. Although the flame was faint, it was firm and continued to burn, supporting her through the long night.

Mu Yunyao heaved a sigh of relief and slowly moved the silver needles, “I will prescribe a prescription to help you recuperate, but you have accumulated too much poison in your body, so I need to remove the poison first. You will inevitably suffer some pain.”

Su You shook her head. “I’m not afraid.”

“Good, there are two days until the Autumn Hunt. In these two days, I can help you clear out the poison in your body, and before I leave, I will leave a prescription using some mild and light medicinal herbs. You’ve lost your health too severely, so you’ll need a year or so to make up for it. You don’t need to worried.”

The Second Madam nodded her head hurriedly. “There’s no need to rush. As long as you can heal her body, we won’t be in a rush to do so, even if we have to spend a few more years. Yunyao, I really don’t know how to thank you.”

“I have my own selfish motives. I think, Second Aunt can guess it too.”

“That’s not the same. I know that you have the ability to do so. With me there to help you, it will only make things more appealing. You helping You’er recuperate is equivalent to saving her life. You have saved her for such a great favor. I am deeply grateful to you.”

Mu Yunyao wrote down the prescription and asked the Second Madam to prepare the medicinal ingredients. “Second Aunt, you must be careful with regards to the medicinal ingredients. You must never forget the mistake you made before. If you trust me, you can have someone secretly go to Chunhe Hall to gather the medicinal ingredients. Of course, the medicine prescribed by the Imperial Physician and other doctors should continue to be boiled. At most, let Elder Sister Su You have a few more flowerpots in her room.”

The Second Madam nodded her head repeatedly. “Alright, I’ll listen to you.”

Knowing that there was a problem with those medicines, she would definitely not let Su You continue drinking them. However, if she suddenly stopped drinking the prescription from before, it would arouse suspicion. She could only boil the medicine and pour it into the flower pot.

Mu Yunyao carefully examined Su You’s body. After thinking for a while and coming up with a few prescriptions. She also taught Second Madam a few massage methods and then returned to Jiyue Pavilion.

After more than ten days of effort, the Cinnabar Osmanthus flower bloomed season had passed. The leaves were slightly yellow now, and some had already begun to wilt. Although there was no more of the previous flourishing scenery, it was still quite interesting.

When Si Shu walked over and saw Mu Yunyao’s expression when she looked at the Cinnabar Osmanthus, she couldn’t help but say, “Miss, you will be leaving for the hunting grounds in two days. It’s better to have time to go to Ni Yun Fang and Bu Xian Lou today to take a look? If you have anything you aren’t satisfied with, you can let them rest in time.”

Mu Yunyao was a little tempted. Ni Yun Fang and Bu Xian Luo were in the process of being prepared. They are her foundation in the Capital. Many decorations didn’t need to be that meticulous in the Jingling City, but it differs in the Capital. They really can’t copy the old style.

“I’ll go upstairs to check on Mother first. Have someone prepare a carriage and send someone to Ning He Garden to report to Grandmother.”

“Yes, Miss.”

When Mu Yunyao went upstairs, Su Qing was still sleeping. So she could only instruct Si Qin and Si Qi before she leaves.

There was a message from the Old Madam that Mu Yunyao didn’t have to go to Ning He Garden to pay her respects in person and tell her to bring a few more maids with her when she left the residence.

Mu Yunyao knew that the Old Madam didn’t want to see her at the moment, so she was happy and at ease. She then took Jin Lan, Jin Qiao, Si Shu, and Si Hua out.
