View MoreAt this moment, she was both shocked and afraid, too late to think about how the fire started. Her mind was in chaos, and her last thought was of the child in her belly. She felt her heart and courage shattered, tears streaming down uncontrollably, but soon they were dried up by the flames.As the fire grew bigger and bigger, she felt surrounded and trapped in the inferno. Despair engulfed her, and even though she covered her nose and mouth with a wet cloth, she knew she couldn't hold out for long in the intense heat. Looking at the piled blankets on the kang and thinking of the flesh and blood in her womb, Selena gritted her teeth. She was determined to fight, either to burn to death or to escape alive with her child.Just as she took a few steps back, preparing to close her eyes and charge forward, the door suddenly burst open with a loud bang, as if someone had kicked it from outside. A figure rushed in.The comer was none other than Lucio, who had been too b
The morning sunlight streamed through the window into the room as Selena and Lucio got up early to prepare for a special day - the baptism ceremony of Selena's brother, Adrés. Selena wore an exquisite dress, smiling as she held hands with Lucio in the carriage, feeling full of anticipation.The carriage slowly made its way through the streets of the town and soon arrived at the church. The baptism ceremony proceeded solemnly and warmly, with family members gathering together to witness this special moment. Adrés was cleansed with holy water, appearing incredibly sacred and pure. Selena and Lucio felt immensely happy and content in their hearts.After the ceremony, the family gathered together to enjoy a lavish lunch, with the table filled with various delicacies. However, when it was Selena's turn to taste the food, she felt nauseous and had no appetite, hardly able to eat anything. Her face turned pale, and fine beads of sweat appeared on her forehead, i
Perhaps feeling refreshed and comfortable without any sweat on his body, the man nodded in agreement. Selena supported his arm and helped him lean against the edge of the bed, although he didn't really need her help as he was able to prop himself up with his own arm strength. With her limited strength, she couldn't even move his body.After a while, when the meal was brought in, Selena smelled the aroma of the food and heard the man's stomach growling with hunger. She couldn't help but smile, knowing that hunger was a sign of improvement in his condition. These days, he had only consumed some thin porridge and a bellyful of medicinal soup. Selena instructed Mariana to place the meal on the low table by the bed.Then, she uncovered the lid of the soup bowl. A person who had just recovered from a serious illness would have a weak digestive system and would need something soft and easy to digest. Today, she had the kitchen prepare some meat congee, where the meat had been
The wound continued to bleed, and despite applying pressure, the bleeding wouldn't stop. After a moment, Mariana brought the Achillea millefolium powder Selena had prepared. Selena then poured some hot water into a porcelain bowl and mixed in all the miraculous water droplets she had generated earlier with the Achillea millefolium powder, creating a paste. She then cleaned the wound and applied a thick layer of the paste before covering it with a white cloth, repeating the process for the other wounds.When the two the king's physician arrived, Selena had already cleaned her hands. The older and younger physicians opened their medical kits and proceeded to examine the wounds. The older physician, pinching the paste on the wound with his fingers, turned to Selena and asked, "Madam, who dressed this wound?"Selena, feeling a bit embarrassed about her crude dressing, replied anxiously, "I did. Seeing the severe bleeding, I was in a hurry and used the common method my fath
Jose and Maria, being kind-hearted, had softened their anger considerably after having a son, knowing they now had an heir. They simply hoped Antonio would return the money from the stolen materials. However, Selena believed that such parasites should be punished severely, as otherwise, the employees in the shop might follow suit. So, she instructed Thomas to submit the relevant evidence to the police station. Despite Tasilla returning the stolen goods and Antonio being sentenced to a year in prison.With the arrival of the cruel summer, the days became hotter and more stifling. Selena visited her mother and little brother every day, but even with the carriage available, she ended up sweating profusely due to the heat. Upon returning, she had no desire to go anywhere else, she just wanted to rest on a bench by the window with a water basin to cool off and a novel in hand. She spent the afternoons comfortably, sipping flower tea and enjoying some snacks.However, one da
Although it was daytime, the room remained dim with the doors and windows closed. Several candles were lit for illumination. Inside, the room echoed with the sounds of painful groans, causing Jose, pacing outside, to feel increasingly uneasy. He had skipped meals from noon until now. The sounds from inside were getting weaker, and as Jose watched the servants pour out basin after basin of blood water, his heart clenched.However, more anxious than Jose was Selena. Originally, her mother still had half a month before giving birth. Her health had been good, but unexpectedly, she went into labor prematurely. The newly prepared home was not ready for occupancy, so they had to make do with delivering the baby here. Due to the lack of preparation, the room had to be hastily cleaned. Probably due to the shock, her mother's condition was not good. Holding her hand, Selena could see it turning pale.Thankfully, Jose had arranged for three midwives in advance. Two of them were o
Selena watched as the woman waved her arms in excitement and cursed loudly. Suddenly, Selena interjected coldly, "If what you say is true, it makes sense. However, this matter concerns only Antonio, and whether innocent or not, he must come personally to confront our family. What does it mean for a woman with a child to be here? Why isn't the principal involved party present?" With these words, those who were initially confused about what was happening suddenly understood. They pointed and murmured among themselves, and the neighbors knew that José's family had a flower field. Every year, they received about hundred of carts of flowers. It was rumored that the caretakers of the field were a peasant family, which before used to be their neighbors. Apparently, they discovered that this peasant family was selling the flowers from their own field to someone else. As a result, they angrily demanded compensation, but the man of the family did not dare to show up and sent h
After Lucio set off on his mission, Selena found herself at a loose end. Suddenly, she realized that since getting married, her life had been completely dominated by Lucio. Now, with all this free time, she felt a bit uncomfortable with this sudden change. Selena quickly instructed Mariana to bring out the account books from all the shops to audit them; she needed to find something to occupy herself.As she pored over the books in the room, Mariana fanned her, and though there was an ice basin beside the chair keeping her cool, the task of going through the books required concentration, and Selena still felt a bit sweaty around the nose. Originally, she had no idea how to do these things, but there were some things she couldn't avoid learning, as an owner who can't understand the accounts is easily fooled by the employees.After going through two or three books, Mariana came in and said that Thoma had sent a message saying there were problems at the store. Selena's fir
Selena and Lucio returned home and rested for two days to recover from their journey. Lucio went back to work, and Selena, realizing she hadn't seen her parents in a while, decided to visit them the next day.Approaching the familiar gates, Selena's heart was filled with nervousness and joy. She couldn't wait to see her family again, eager to share the sights and experiences they had encountered during their trip to Jarll.As the evening approached, Maria insisted that Selena stay for dinner before heading home. Selena, realizing she hadn't had a relaxed chat with her parents in a long time, agreed to stay a little longer.Unexpectedly, halfway through dinner, Lucio walked in with a grim expression. He had come home and didn't find Selena there, and seeing that it was getting dark and she hadn't returned, he got worried and came looking for her. He breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing Selena happily chatting with Maria.Jose greeted Lucio and instructed the servants to fetch the uten
