Seeking Happiness-Chapter 1 part2

The bright moon, clear and empty, brilliant as if silk.

A scream suddenly pierced through the silence of the night, echoing throughout.

The night vigil servant was shaken awake hard, with a voice urging: “Hurry! Go call a physician! Hurry!”

Foots steps sounded throughout.

Lanterns lit up one after another; all around you can see silhouettes. But the most chaotic was the Sheng Mei residence, there was a constant stream of people coming in and out.

The red candle of the room was still burning, candle wax dripping and condensing on the silver candle holder.

A Few Days Later,

Early in the Sheng Mei residence, Shu Huan she had just fallen asleep when she was woken from her slumber.

She was confused to see the maidservant Qiao Yun near her bed, saying : “Mistress, we have offended!”

They did not wait for her to respond before two servants came forward and grabbed her left and rights hands to take her outside.

She was not shocked by the panic: “What are you going to do?”

Qiao Yun led the way, not turning around to answer: “Lao tai Jun ordered for mistress to have a proper change of residence, for three or two days.”

*Lao tai – Old lady

The so-called proper change of residence is a little room in the Sheng Mei residence, only four walls nothing inside the room, there was not even beds only a pile of of dry straw on the ground for people to sit down.

She was going to be confined.

Shu Huan was thrown onto the pile of straw, not even bothering to get up, Shu Huan listened to the sound of door closing “Peng” accompanied by the sound of locking.

Really too cold hearted to think about her. She will not waste any efforts to cry, it was useless to cry.

Shu Huan sat down with her chin on her knees, she suddenly felt her eyes moistening. She wanted to cry.

Inexplicably, she wanted to die.

But the original owner of the body also suicided by hanging herself.

For the few days she had to lie on the bed, she had to drink bitter seven or eight bowls of traditional Chinese medicine then it was reduced to the point of confinement.

It seems that the pile of trouble that the original owner left was more troublesome than she thought.

At first, under the heavy pressure of the painful experience of physical pain and mental torture, Shu Huan Tingbu Zhu fainted again.

(And the author casually decides to add another name)

Even though she fainted, her heart was still tangled. She did not know how much time has passed and how long it had been when she finally understood the situation and calmed down.

She wanted to cherish life and go with a flow.

Shu Huan got up to and started to sort out the straw since it was easier to sit in sorted out straw.

She suddenly heard the sound of the door unlocking. She turned back to see the maidservant Hui Yun opening the door with a red tray in her hand. Behind Hui Yun, Shu Huan saw the vast twilight.

It’s going to be dark soon, no wonder there is no light in the room!

Hui Yun squatted down to keep the red tray on the floor, and when seeing the morning and noon food on the floor uneaten, Hui Yun cannot help but frown and say: “Mistress, no matter how wronged you feel, you must eat.”

“Yes! Of course, I will eat!”

It was too dark in the room for Shu Huan to see those meals. In fact, she was very hungry. Shu Huan took a piece of roll from the tray and chewed it.

Seeing that she was willing to eat, Hui Yun was much warmer and said: “Mistress, you will only stay here for a few days, lao tai Jun said when the lord get’s better she will let out.”

The piece of roll in her throat suddenly choked her. Shu Huan made Hui Yun pour her tea and hurriedly drank it.

Shu Huan revealed a bitter smile.
