Chapter 96

Su Yan looked at Xu Chengjin in confusion. It took her a while to understand what he meant. She opened her eyes wide and said in shock: "When did it happen?"

Xu Mohuai looked solemn, staring at Su Yan's face and said "Yanniang, Doctor Zhang has been gone for a while. You personally arranged the funeral."

Su Yan's reaction seemed to be even greater than theirs. She didn't believe what Xu Mohuai said at all, until Xu Chengjin repeatedly emphasized that she did. It was a misremembering, so Su Yan believed that it was her fault.

Xu Mohuai called the doctor. The doctor couldn't see anything wrong with Su Yan. She was in good health, but she was in a trance. She was still immersed in the grief of Dr. Zhang's death and couldn't get out of it.

Xu Mohuai was worried about her current appearance. He would often accompany her on weekdays. Xu Chengjin and Xu Chengjin also became much better-behaved and would no longer worry Su Yan. In the days that followed, Su Yan was not weird at all, and was even more lively than before. She often took Xu Chengjin's hand to the racecourse, and would take the initiative to greet Xu Mohuai when she saw him.

However, she still had a weird feeling about her that Xu Mohuai couldn't describe. Until one afternoon, the Clothing Bureau sent new clothing materials for Su Yan to choose from. She thought for a long time and suddenly shouted into the court: "Bihe..." Bihe, come in and help me choose some ingredients."

Xu Mohuai put down the book in his hand and looked straight at Su Yan. She blinked in confusion and asked, "What do you want me to do?"

In an instant, he His heart seemed to be covered with a layer of frost, causing chills to spread throughout his limbs. A strong sense of helplessness enveloped him like a wave, making him feel helpless as if he had been teased by God.

Gradually, Su Yan's memory of the people and things around her became more and more confusing. Some people in the palace began to say that she was crazy, but Xu Mohuai only said that she was sick and did not allow anyone to say that she was crazy.

She couldn't remember that Bihe had been out of the palace for a long time. She often thought that Doctor Zhang was still alive and led people to find Doctor Zhang. Even if someone reminded her that Doctor Zhang and Bihe were gone, she would still forget it next time. The doctor at Shang Yao Bureau said that Su Yan had a heart problem and asked her to go out for a walk from time to time so that she could put these things down.

Xu Mohuai went to Hanxiang Hall more and more frequently, and in the end even government affairs were handled by Su Yan's side to prevent her from causing trouble again. However, except that Su Yan couldn't remember people and things, everything else was very obedient.

Snow has fallen in the courtyard, and the sky and earth are vast. Xu Mohuai looked out of the half-opened window and could just see Su Yan squatting in the snow making a snowman. Her cheeks were wrapped in a rabbit fur cloak, and the tip of her nose was red from the cold.

Xu Mohuai stood up and walked out of the palace door, and said helplessly: "You are so old, but you are still like a child, don't you feel cold?"

Su Yan held a ball of snow, there was a hint of heat in her words, and her eyes looked bright and clear.

"Alang, look, I made a pile of you."

The snowman was piled up in a mess, and only a human figure could be seen, which did not bear any resemblance to Xu Mohuai.

But his expression suddenly froze, and then he slowly said: "Yanniang, what did you call me just now?"

Su Yan asked in confusion: "Did I say the wrong thing?"
