Chapter 4 4. Relics
In the past few days, Shen Qiu behaved very well, taking medicine and eating on time, even the mean Aunt Huang couldn't fault her.

In the afternoon, the family doctor of the Shen family came to change Shen Qiu's medicine.He is a man in his late sixties, with a pair of round glasses on his face, and he is always smiling.

In her previous life, Shen Qiu liked this old man very much, because he was one of the few people who would smile at her.

But once, after he witnessed Aunt Huang beating and scolding her viciously, he just nodded with a smile, then turned and left as if he hadn't seen anything.

After that time, Shen Qiu especially hated that old man, and also hated the smile on his face.At that time, Shen Qiu felt that the old man was a bad guy wearing a smiling mask.

Thinking about it now, the old man is not bad, at least the wound on his body was healed by the old man.

Seeing the old man open the medicine box that he carried with him, Shen Qiu's eyes flashed.

"Grandpa doctor, my leg is very painful."

"Oh... let me take a look."

When the old man's hand touched his leg, Shen Qiu suddenly cried out.

"Ah! It hurts! It hurts!!!"

While screaming, the legs retracted.

"Hey! Don't move, it won't be easy to check for you if you move."

"But I hurt!! It hurts so much!!! Ah!"

Aunt Huang leaned over impatiently, stretched out her strong hand, and desperately held down Shen Qiu's wobbling leg.

"What's it called!! How can I help you check for such a movement!! I'll give you another injection!"

Hearing that an injection was needed, Shen Qiu didn't move. There is no child who is not afraid of an injection.

After undoing the bandage, the old man looked at the wound and then checked the bones.

"The wound is recovering well...the bone is not injured, how can it hurt?"

"A child is hypocritical, crying at the slightest pain, Dr. Liu ignores her."

The old man didn't answer, just re-bandaged the wound.He left the medicine with a smile on his face, wrote down the dosage and left.

Aunt Huang also walked out.

After the door was closed, I heard the footsteps of the two people in the corridor gradually drifting away.Only then did Shen Qiu sit up, and took out the things from under the pillow.

It was an almanac and a ballpoint pen, which were originally in the old man's medicine chest.

This skill was learned by Shen Qiu in the prison, and she was taught by her fellow inmates who lived in the same cell.

The brunette started stealing at a young age and was never caught.She also told Shen Qiu that this is a handicraft handed down from their family.

It was not because of stealing that she would be caught and sent to prison, but because of malicious injury, and it was her son who was injured.

At that time, Shen Qiu didn't understand why a mother would attack her own child, so she asked.

The woman raised her head, looked at the small window in the cell, and fell silent.

Her expression was numb, but Shen Qiu felt that she was crying.

Shen Qiu didn't ask any further questions, and his eyes fell on that small window.

As the saying goes, happy people are all alike, but unhappy people are unhappy in their own way.

Withdrawing her thoughts, Shen Qiu looked at the calendar, the calendar for 1983.

She drew a circle on August 8, which is her father's birthday and the day when she changed her destiny.

Today is June 6, and there is still more than a month before my father's birthday. By then, my injury should be healed.

Downstairs, Shen Yishan came back very early today.Today Yu Yiyue went back to her natal home for his affairs, and he couldn't wait to know the result.

When I came back, I happened to see Dr. Liu coming down from upstairs. Since the Shen family returned to China to develop, Dr. Liu has become their family doctor, taking care of the family's health meticulously.

Shen Yishan is still very satisfied with this elderly Doctor Liu, who knows how to measure and how to advance and retreat.

Dr. Liu saw Shen Yishan greeted him with a smile, but did not tell him about the situation of the injured.Because he knew that the male host didn't want to hear it, and he was making fun of himself if he said it.

After Dr. Liu left, Shen Yishan picked up the phone and called Yu's house.

It was Yu's servant who answered the phone. After the other party found out that it was Shen Yishan, his wife's voice quickly came from the phone.

"Why did you call? Are you still in the company?"

"No, I just got home, and seeing that you haven't come back, I called and asked."

Yu Yiyue knew what her husband was thinking, "Don't worry, my father is also happy to see this matter come to fruition."

"Then... will Mu Qiyuan come?"

Yu Yiyue's laughter came from the phone, "It just so happens that when my dad contacted that friend, Mu Qiyuan was also nearby."

"This is the invitation!?"

"Of course, the other party is also very happy to be invited."

"Great!" Shen Yishan clenched his fists excitedly.

"It's too late today, so I won't go. You first thank Dad for me, and stay with them well. It's okay to come back later. I'll go there in person tomorrow and thank Dad."

"Oh, I see."

After hanging up the phone, Shen Yishan looked happy.

If the Shen family is a resurgent wealthy family, then the Mu family is a wealthy family among the wealthy.In those difficult years, the foundation of Mujia has never been shaken.If he gets in touch with the shepherds, it will only benefit Shen Yishan and cause no harm to him.

The days have come to July in a flash, and the atmosphere in Shen's house is also like this weather, getting hotter every day.

The maids swung their sticks like rain to clean every corner of the house, even the dust in the crevices.

Shen Qiu lay on the bed, watching the maids come and go, cleaning the window.The ridiculous thing is that they turned a blind eye to the footprints all over the ground.

The reason is simple, the window faces the main entrance, and you can see it as soon as you look up.As for what it looks like in the window, it doesn't really matter that much.

A white veil was nailed to the window, so as to block the view from the outside and not affect the lighting inside.

Shen Qiu felt that this should be Yu Yiyue's idea.I sneered in my heart, it really bothered her.

The maids went back and forth, completely treating the lying Shen Qiu as air.

Shen Qiu lay quietly, watching these people busy.She didn't sit up slowly until they packed up their tools and left.

She got out of bed and walked around the room a few times.The wound doesn't hurt much anymore, and the recovery is obviously faster than in the previous life.

She takes her medicine on time every day and lies on the bed obediently.Unlike in her previous life, in order to get her father's attention, it didn't count if she didn't take medicine well, and she even tore open her wounds to fight against Aunt Huang.Until August, the wound was not healed and scars remained.

Walking to the door, Shen Qiu listened carefully.It was very quiet outside the door, the maids should have gone to clean elsewhere.

She tried to turn the doorknob, but the door was unlocked.Opening the door, she saw the dusty door on the opposite side at a glance. She remembered that it was the room where her mother was imprisoned.

She poked her head out and looked in the corridor, but there was no one there.He walked over quickly and turned the doorknob.This room is never locked, because it has become a place where the Shen family piles up sundries.

The room was very dark, Shen Qiu pressed the switch next to the door.A single light bulb hung from the ceiling, illuminating the entire room.

The house was full of dust, and the bed where my mother had slept was leaned against the wall.The other furnishings have hardly been touched, and they are still as she remembered them.

The empty space is full of clutter, including unused furniture and old things that have been replaced.

She went to the closet and opened the door.It was empty inside, only a few floral dresses hanging pitifully inside.The clothes were covered with dust, and the white material was yellowed.

A lot of sundries were pushed under it, and it was very dirty.

Shen Qiu flipped through it casually, and found a dark green bag in the corner.It is the kind of artificial leather that was popular in the 70s and [-]s, with the pattern of Beihai White Tower printed on it.

Shen Qiu stretched out his hand to lift it, but he didn't expect the bag to be unusually light.When I opened it, there was only a red notebook inside, the kind with quotations printed on the title page.

In addition to the notebook, there are some letters, and the envelope has the same address, 'Fuyuan Town, Dashan Township'.There was no postage stamp on the letter, it should have been written by my mother but could not be mailed.

Take out the notebook and letter, and put the bag back in place.Wrap these up by hanging a dress and stash it in the bottom of your closet.

These are all mother's things, and she wants to take them away with her.

After turning off the light, Shen Qiu left the room.
