After the hero goes crazy

Chapter 151 The Dream Comes

The bed curtain was pulled up, and the sun shone into the bed. Yao Shouning covered his face with his hand and asked:
"What time is it?"

"About three quarters of the hour (about 45:[-])." Mallow was very happy to see that her face was glowing, her skin was delicate and fair, her cheeks were flushed, and she was so tender that she could squeeze out water.

"Miss, wait for me for a while, I will go get your clothes."

Yao Shouning nodded obediently, feeling very surprised in his heart:

"I've only slept for a while."

After she broke up with Lu Zhi last night, when she packed up and went to sleep, she saw that the sky was pale, at least it was the end of the day (about five o'clock). She thought she slept for at least four or five hours, but she didn't expect to sleep for more than one hour hour.

When Mong Kui opened the cabinet to get the clothes, she replied without looking back:
"Where is it for a while? It's been a whole day!"

"what?"

Yao Shouning was taken aback for a moment, and Dong Kui came back with the clothes she had prepared long ago, and said again:
"Miss didn't wake up at all yesterday after falling asleep the night before!"

Her expression was complicated, as if she hesitated to speak.

Too many things happened the day before yesterday, and strange things happened again in Yao's family.

When Mum Kui went to fetch the lantern, she fell asleep unconsciously and didn't wake up until dawn yesterday.

Her memory was still in the time when she was preparing to take the lantern to accompany Yao Shouning to Liu's room for dinner. After realizing that she had fallen asleep, Dong Kui was terrified and hurried back to the room, only to find that Yao Shouning had already fallen asleep.

The room was piled with wet clothes, Yao Shouning's hair was not completely dry, and her injured palm was already a little red and swollen, as if something major had happened while she was asleep.

At that time, Dong Kui was panicked and scared, so she dried her hair and cleaned up the dirty clothes she had changed. Seeing that she was still asleep, she bit the bullet and went to find Mrs. Liu.

Mrs. Liu called the doctor to come and bandage the wound on her hand. After examining her pulse, she said that she was just extremely tired and fell asleep.

Although everyone knew that Yao Shouning might really have fallen asleep based on the experience of the previous two episodes, but when she slept until dusk and didn't wake up, Dong Kui was still quite frightened.

Yao Wanning came over several times on the way, but she slept soundly and didn't know it at all.

"A big event happened last night!"

Dong Kui couldn't bear the agitation in her heart, and when Yao Shouning woke up, she couldn't wait to share with her the major events that happened at home:
"A burglar broke into the house again!"

Before Yao Shouning could speak, Dong Kui continued:

"That thief is very vicious. He still entered Missy's yard and nearly destroyed her house. I don't know if she gave Qingyuan and Baiyu two sisters a sweat drug, which made them sleep soundly. Everyone Not a sound was heard."

For a day yesterday, rumors spread among the Yao family, and everyone felt that something was wrong.

But because there was such an unbelieving hostess as Liu Shi, everyone was more or less affected, thinking that maybe the thief took the opportunity to commit the crime.

Some people even rumored that the Yao family might have infiltrated inside thieves, colluded with outside traitors, drugged the master, and carried out stealing while everyone was asleep.

"But at the critical moment, I was frightened by the people patrolling the city from the General's Mansion, and retreated."

From Dong Kui's mouth, Yao Shouning probably guessed what he missed after falling asleep yesterday.

When Lu Zhi left, people from the General's Mansion probably heard the news of Yao's family and rushed over in time.

After Liu woke up, she found that Yao Wanning's house had been smashed, and then thought of the night before when Xiaoxiao entered the house, she guessed that the thief had come again.

Just after the people from the General's Mansion arrived, Liu thought it was the thief who was frightened and retreated temporarily.

In short, the mansion was full of disturbances, which made Liu Shi angry, headache and fearful at the same time.

It was precisely because of such a big event at home that when Yao Shouning changed his dirty clothes that night, he was still having a headache, how to explain it, and finally let it go.

She moved her palm, and the wound was re-medicated, but because of repeated injuries, it still hurts when she moved.

"That's right." Mallow went outside and poured a basin of hot water in, and said:
"I have to go and inform the master and wife of this news."

"Is my dad back?"

Yao Shouning didn't expect to hear such great news when he woke up this morning, so he couldn't help but asked while grabbing Mong Kui.

"Yeah!" Mallow nodded vigorously:

"The eldest princess and General Lu entered the prison yesterday, and the prison was forced to release them on the spot."

Zhu Hengrui said that Sun Miracle Doctor was originally a liar, and even if it was wrong for Yao Hui to hire someone to make trouble, he should be imprisoned for two days as an example.

What's more, everyone knows the West Market case well, and it has nothing to do with the ruffians Yao Hui found to make troubles. In addition, it is time to employ people, so they propose to release Yao Hui first, make him commit crimes and make meritorious deeds, and then punish him later. The salary is half a year.

"Shendu City is really too busy, so last night, the master was sent back to his home. He waited for the official document to be released before he could go back to the Yamen again, saying that he had committed a crime and made meritorious service."

After Dong Kui said this, seeing Yao Shouning's confused face, he said again:

"I forgot that Miss didn't wake up yesterday." She patted her forehead and added:

"The Bailing River swelled the night before, broke through the embankment, and flooded many houses along the river!"

Because the incident happened suddenly, many people didn't realize it in their night dreams, so not only some people died, but the people affected by the disaster had to be forced to evacuate.

"It's almost December now, how could the Bailing River suddenly have a high tide? It's really strange."

The end of the year is not the season for high tides, but this year there was heavy rain, and there was already a flood in Shendu City. Before it subsided for a few days, the Bailing River swelled again, harming the people along the river.

Yao Shouning thought of the scene where he and Lu Zhi were trapped in the illusion the night before, so he didn't dare to speak out, guessing that the rising tide might be related to the means of the "River God" that day.

It's just that although Lu Zhi's force is strong, he can't completely kill the "River God". Although he is temporarily forced to retreat, the brand on Yao Wanning's eyebrows has not disappeared, and it is always a hidden danger.

In addition, if the river water rises, it may harm the people. This matter still needs to be solved.

After Dong Kui finished speaking, she was about to inform the Lius and his wife that Yao Shouning was awake, but she stopped her:

"I changed my clothes, let's go together."

Mong Kui nodded, helped twist the handkerchief to comb her hair, and waited for her to wash before changing her clothes and standing up.

Although this sleep is waking up, but after a day of hunger, I didn't feel it at first, but when I stood up, I felt that my eyes went dark.

Yao Shouning fell back on the bed, startled Dong Kui a lot, closed his eyes, felt better after a while, and then stood up again.

When the master and servant came to Liu's house, the whole family was there, and leftovers were placed on the table in the house. Obviously, when Yao Shouning came, the family was eating.

Yao Hui, who was arrested a few days ago in the prison department, was released as expected, and he is also sitting on the table at the moment.

"father!"

Seeing Yao Hui, Yao Shouning first called out happily, and then his eyes turned sore.

When everyone saw Yao Shouning waking up, they couldn't help being a little happy. The Yao family had something to say, but this was not the time to ask questions.

Yao Hui stayed in the prison for two days. Although he has not been tortured yet, the past two days have not been easy. After he came back, he heard that something happened at home. He didn't dare to sleep all night last night. He stayed by Yao Wanning's side all the time. With a pair of very obvious dark circles.

Seeing her coming, Mrs. Liu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Now that the family is in troubled times, the eldest daughter has finally recovered from her illness, but the younger daughter has another problem of lethargy.

She frowned, and asked Yao Shouning with some concern if there was anything wrong, and if she wanted a doctor to come back and take a look.

"fine."

Yao Shouning shook her head. She guessed that the reason why she slept all day might be related to the evil spell cast by the 'River God' that night.

Thinking of the scene the night before yesterday when the 'River God' suddenly turned his head to stare at her when he was fighting with Lu Zhi, those silver-white eyes with a strange color were deeply imprinted in her mind.

"I don't have any discomfort, it's just that I've been lying down for a long time." After finishing speaking, she added:
"Still hungry."

Hearing what she said, Mrs. Liu breathed a sigh of relief:
"Mother, let someone bring you breakfast."

As soon as she finished speaking, Yao Hui said:

"Shouning has been hungry all day, and there are still some things that should be avoided. Why don't you go and see if there is any warm and easy-to-digest food at home, so that someone can make it quickly and deliver it."

He had something to say to Yao Shouning, and took the opportunity to dismiss Liu Shi.

After many years of husband and wife, how can Liu not know what her husband thinks, but she trusts Yao Hui so much that she doesn't even ask why, she just smiles and agrees. Mallow and other maids called out together.

Originally, he wanted to ask Yao Wanning and his siblings to come out as well, leaving room for the father and daughter to talk, but just as the words fell, Yao Ruoyun moved obediently, but Yao Wanning seemed not to hear, and sat in place without moving.

She was sitting extremely steadily, Yao Ruoyun had already stood up, and wanted to sit back, but seeing Liu Shi's eyes fell on her, like a silent urging, Yao Ruoyun could only walk to Liu Shi's side with hatred.

The rest of the father and daughter didn't move. Seeing this scene, Mrs. Liu felt a little helpless:
"You father and daughter don't know if you have something to whisper, so you won't let me listen."

Now it's an eventful time, and Mrs. Liu herself has something to do, so she shook her head after speaking casually:
"Fortunately, Ruoyun is still considerate, and just happened to accompany me to see Wanning's repaired house."

With Liu Shi boasting like this, Yao Ruoyun couldn't even say that she wanted to stay, so she could only leave with Liu Shi with a full face of unwillingness.

After the mother and son left, Yao Hui's expression became serious:

"You fell asleep yesterday, what's going on?"

In fact, he had many doubts in his heart, but what he cared most about was naturally his little daughter's body.

Yao Shouning was so hungry that he panicked, but Madam Cao took away all the leftovers on the table, so she poured herself a cup of tea and drank it, and then breathed a sigh of relief:

"Maybe he was possessed by an evil spirit."

When she said this, Yao Hui was taken aback.

"But it has something to do with the commotion in our courtyard the night before?"

Yao Wanning was worried about her sister's health, so she hurriedly asked.

Her gaze fell on Yao Shouning's bandaged hand, and she paused for a moment, remembering the scene when the doctor changed the dressing yesterday, her eyes turned red, and she lowered her head slightly to avoid being seen by Yao Hui and her sister head to go.

Yao Shouning nodded.

The situation was unclear that day, and Yao Hui was dubious about her words, so she didn't explain the matter thoroughly. Now that the 'River God' has appeared twice, and may appear again, there is no way to hide it, so she simply said:
"It was the 'river god' of the Bailing River who branded my sister."

As soon as she finished speaking, Yao Hui's expression changed, but he didn't make a sound. Yao Wanning sat quietly, with his hands clenched into fists on his thighs, and he didn't make a sound.

"Speak slowly."

Yao Hui glanced at the silent eldest daughter, and motioned Yao Shouning to continue.

"My sister's illness is weird. I suspect that she has been cast by a demon."

The medicine cited by Miracle Doctor Sun that day was probably the key to breaking the evil curse, but in the end it was also because of this medicine that Yao Wanning had a relationship with the "River God" of Bailing River.

"After the 'branding' is completed, it is equivalent to forming a 'contract'."

Yao Shouning thought for a while, but didn't say the word 'marriage', only said:

"So after the 'contract' was completed, 'he' went to Yao's house, intending to take my sister away."

Although she didn't say it clearly, Yao Hui glanced at Yao Wanning:
"I had a strange dream the night before."

When he mentioned this dream, his expression was serious.

Yao Shouning was taken aback for a moment, and glanced at Yao Wanning, seeing that her complexion was pale, her head was bowed and she was silent.

Yao Hui said:

"I dreamed that Yao's family had a happy event."

He said it very briefly, in fact, since the day he entered the prison, he had had such weird dreams twice in a row, but he woke up strangely after half of the dream on the first day.

The second time I had a dream, I dreamed that I was back at Yao's house, surrounded by a group of 'people', saying that he was late, and congratulating him repeatedly, saying that he was very lucky.

When Yao Hui was a little puzzled, he was dragged back to the house by this group of 'people', who said they would wash and change his clothes for him, and then a big happy event happened.

He immediately asked why he likes it?Then I heard the 'people' around me say with a smile:

"'River God' wants to marry your daughter, this is a great joy!"

"The 'River God' is approaching, and we are going to worship and get married soon, the master can't delay the time."

After the servant in the dream finished shouting, he took Yao Hui to wash and change clothes, and when he came out, he saw Liu Shi and others in the hall.

The room was dressed up beamingly, and he was greeted respectfully and sat on a chair.

When Yao Wanning was carried in, an unusually tall man appeared in the room at some point, and everyone kept calling him the 'river god'.

A group of people clamored that the auspicious time had come, shouting not to miss the good news.

In the dream, Yao Hui was completely confused, and he didn't realize that something was wrong at all. After waking up from the dream, he just thought he had a weird dream.

After all, the eldest daughter has been ill for many years and has never been married. Liu is worried that she will be in poor health and will be treated harshly after marriage, so she is not willing to promise her daughter out, so where is the son-in-law?

He didn't take it seriously at the time, until now Yao Shouning mentioned the 'river god' of Bailing River, and when he thought of the dream the night before, his expression changed slightly, and he finally realized that something was wrong.
