Shen Yu's eyes felt sore and she stared at Shen Zhao closely.
Shen Zhao looked at her and saw the reluctance in her eyes. He comforted: "It will be okay. Your brother and I are invincible. Come on, smile."
Shen Yu pursed her lips and pulled the corners of her lips hard, but she could only squeeze out a smile that was uglier than crying.
"Forget it, stop laughing, it's so ugly." Shen Zhao reached out to pull her, "Kneel down for a while and get up. Dad doesn't know anyway."
Shen Yu shook her head, broke away from his arm and continued to kneel, "When will we set off?"
"In two days," Shen Zhao said with a smile, "Who told you to drug me? My legs are still weak now, how can I ride a horse?"
Shen Yu sniffed, "You are so vain, no wonder you haven't found a wife yet."
"Tsk." Shen Zhao tried to hit her, but only pinched her face, "Can't I find it? I was too busy to look for it."
"Nonsense," Shen Yu pulled away his hand, "The third girl from Taifu Yu's family likes you, I know it."
Shen Zhao scolded: "Don't ruin this girl's reputation."
Shen Yu moved her knees. The floor was hard and there was no futon, so it was really painful to kneel.
"It's true. Don't think I don't know. She asked someone to bring some snacks and you just returned them. Then you turned around and peeped at them. Don't you feel awkward?"
"You do not understand."
Shen Zhao said and simply sat down on the ground, and pulled her to sit on the ground, "Look at daddy who can't come back even once a year. Do you think mother has no complaints? I don't want to delay other people's girls."
"Perhaps she is happy to be delayed by you."
Shen Yu looked sideways at him. She couldn't tell what she was feeling at this moment. She just felt that her heart and mind were tightly blocked by something, and there was no place to breathe.
She remembered that the third girl in Taifu Yu's family was named Yu Wanqiu. When she got married, Yu Wanqiu came to add makeup to her and even shed tears at her wedding banquet.
They understood each other tacitly, not saying a word to each other, but they both understood for whom the tears were shed.
At least before her death, Yu Wanqiu was not married, so she was one year older than Shen Yu.
"Miss Yu is very kind. I want her to be my sister-in-law."
"I know." Shen Zhao said.
Shen Yu grabbed Shen Zhao's hand and said, "This time we go on an expedition together and come back together, and then you go find her."
Shen Zhao's eyes moved slightly, and he turned to look at her, with a gentle smile on his lips, "Okay."
Shen Zhao stood up and left.
Shen Yu: "Brother."
Shen Zhao looked back, "What's wrong?"
Shen Yu mustered up her courage, "Do you believe that people can be reborn?"
Shen Zhao frowned, "Rebirth?"
"Well," Shen Yu nodded, "I just feel like I've lived again, and all the regrets in my previous life have still been made up for."
Shen Zhao came over, knelt down in front of her, and touched her forehead, "Did you have a fever a few days ago? What nonsense are you talking about?"
"Don't you believe it?" Shen Yu was full of expectations.
"Believe it," Shen Zhao said with a smile, "Why don't you believe it? Okay, okay, don't think too much."
Shen Yu's heart sank. Sure enough, no one would believe such an unbelievable thing. Shen Zhao said he believed it, but his eyes said everything.
Shen Yu knelt until the sun set and the glow was gradually obscured. Then the maid came in to light the lamp. After lighting, she brought the food in and took a small table and placed it in front of her.
"The general said that the ancestors might not be able to see the dark lady kneeling at night, so she doesn't need to kneel, but she will still have to kneel during the day tomorrow."
This is indeed what Shen Zhongan can say. He is obviously worried that something will happen to Liang Kneeling at night, but he wants to find some unfair excuse.
Shen Yu sat on the ground and slowly straightened her legs. An itching and tingling sensation spread from her knees, making her afraid to move for a long time.
"Are my dad and my brother feeling better?"
The maid responded: "Okay, I'm feeling better, but I still need to rest for two days."
Shen Yu nodded, took the chopsticks and ate.
She spent the night in the ancestral hall that night, and knelt down until dark the next day before letting her out.
Lu Yao and Hong Qiao came to pick her up, but Shen Yu couldn't stand up at all, and her legs couldn't straighten. They held her back on the left and right, and made a medicinal soup for her to apply hot compresses on.
When I opened my trouser legs, my knees were red and swollen, and there were some bruises in some places.
Lu Yao felt distressed for a while, and couldn't help complaining with red eyes, "The general is really cruel. He's already kneeling to such an extent that his legs will become useless if he kneels any more."
Shen Yu grimaced in pain, "Can you please stop cursing me? It can't be broken."
Hongqiao scolded: "Who are you blaming? Miss, you drank three of them with one dose. Not only did you kill yourself, but you even got beaten and knelt down."
"You're so brave, ah——"
Hongqiao pressed the hot handkerchief up, and Shen Yu didn't have time to say the next word except screaming.
When a hot bandana soaked in liquid was applied to my legs, it felt terrible, numb, itchy, and stinging.
Shen Yu clutched the quilt and endured it for a while, then she said, "You should inform me in advance."
"It hurts as it should."
She had chosen the two maids herself. She had been with them for many years, but she had never seen them in person, and she had developed a temperamental temperament.
"My dad and the others have decided to leave tomorrow morning, right?"
"It's the day after tomorrow." Hongqiao said.
Shen Yu wondered, "So late?"
Hong Qiao took the handkerchief from Lu Yao and said, "The emperor has allocated another 20,000 elite cavalry. The general has asked the army to break camp and go ahead. They can catch up later."
Shen Yu nodded, "That's true."
After applying the dressing on her legs, Shen Yu directed the two of them to collect her clothes, and then she sat on the couch and pointed out the world.
"There's no need to bring that one. It's almost snowing outside Yanliang Pass in October."
"I don't want this either. The material is expensive. Just bring a big cloak, the kind that is wear-resistant and stain-resistant."
The two little girls arranged things for her, collected her things, and waited for her to go to bed before going out.
After walking out of the room, Lu Yao said in a low voice: "I didn't dare to say a word just now. I was afraid that I would spill the beans. If the lady knew about it, would she beat me to death?"
Lu Yao is straightforward and stutters when he lies.
Hongqiao said: "Hold on for now. If you dare to tell her, the general will beat you to death first when we come back."
Lu Yao shrank his neck, "Then it's more important for me to save my life."
Shen Yu lay in bed for a whole day and was barely able to get out of bed and walk around the next afternoon.
They will leave Beijing tomorrow, and her current inconvenience in legs and feet cannot hold them back. She has to get up and resume her activities.
While walking in the house, I suddenly heard a commotion outside the courtyard.
