Physician’s Odyssey
Chapter 1490 Untie the knot of mother and daughter
"Please promise me one more thing." Laura said with a complicated expression after finishing her clothes. "Don't tell anyone about my condition."
Su Tao can understand Laura's feelings. As a princess, if the outside world knows that she is suffering from depression, it will surely cause another storm.This is not only about the dignity of the royal family, but also affects Laura's later recovery of illness. If she is caught in a storm of public opinion, Laura's condition is very likely to deteriorate.
Su Tao said seriously: "Don't worry, I am a doctor and I have an obligation to protect the privacy of patients. I will never let others know. As for my assistant, she will also guard this secret."
Laura waited for Ji Xiangjun to finish her translation, her face was relaxed, her mentality improved, and it had something to do with Su Tao's acupuncture.For example, if a person has a headache and brain fever, the temper will naturally not be good. Now the body is comfortable, the body is refreshed, and the mood is clear.
"What do I need to do now?" Laura whispered, "What can I do for Emilia?"
Su Tao said: "You need to chat with Emilia, open up each other's hearts, and help Emilia relieve stress."
Laura looked embarrassed in her eyes, "I am worried that she is unwilling to communicate with me. Every time she talks to me, she seems impatient."
In fact, Laura also found that there had been a rift between herself and her daughter. She was so strong against Emilia, but she was just maintaining her dignity as a mother.In terms of communication, Laura is at a disadvantage, and she is worried that she will be stabbed by Emilia's disgust.
Su Tao sighed softly and said seriously: "Please trust me. You and Emilia are mothers and daughters. As long as you open each other's hearts, you can definitely relieve the grudge in your hearts. Of course, the premise is that you do it. Be prepared to stop forcing her to marry the prince whom the Middle East has never met before."
Laura nodded gently and said: "As long as she can recover, I will give her enough freedom in the future. As for her love and marriage, I will fully respect her opinion."
Su Tao felt relieved, and Laura was able to figure out this. Not only was it good for Emilia's condition, but it also had a positive effect on her depression recovery.
The three chatted for a while in the small room until the attendant knocked on the door and reported: "Your Royal Highness is awake."
Laura glanced at Su Tao with complicated eyes, and Su Tao nodded at her encouragingly.
A smile appeared at the corner of Laura's mouth, "Then I will go in."
After that, Laura walked heavily into Emilia's room, and everyone else was waiting outside.
Looking at Laura's back, Ji Xiangjun leaned to Su Tao's side, and said worriedly: "These mothers and daughters are both mentally ill. Let them communicate alone, will something happen?"
Su Tao shook his head, thoughtfully, "For mental illness, doctors can only play an auxiliary role. The key is to make the patient work hard to break through the psychological barrier. On the surface, Laura is Emilia’s heart disease, but in fact, Ai Isn’t Miria Laura’s heart disease? Both are spiritually dependent on each other, and they put each other in a very important position deep in their hearts."
Although Ji Xiangjun was only a translator, she participated in the whole process of the incident. She said with emotion: "Every family has a hard-to-read scripture. It stands to reason that the British royal family is a large family that everyone envy, but she did not expect that they also have their own distress. "
Su Tao said indifferently: "As long as you are a person, you will encounter all kinds of distress, birth, old age, sickness and death. No one can avoid it. The members of the British royal family have not suffered too many setbacks because of their status. Normal people are even more unbearable. This is the same as tigers raised in captivity. Although they are fed fat and strong, once they are put into nature, it is difficult to adapt to nature's cruel survival laws."
Inside the princess room.
After a short rest, Emilia's mental state improved a lot.Her complexion was ruddy, her breathing was much more relaxed, and she admired Su Tao's level in her heart.
Perhaps this Chinese youth can really use magical medical skills to make himself better.
However, the good mood did not last long. Seeing Laura entering, Emilia quickly lay down, turned her back on her side, and turned her back to her mother.
There was a sourness in Laura's heart. She couldn't help but recall that when Emilia was very young, she always liked to cling to herself, staying true to her every step, and particularly dependent on herself.
"Emilia, are you feeling better?" Laura asked gently.
"You don't need to care, I can't die." Emilia said coldly.She was full of resentment towards Laura, she was like a mountain, she was overwhelmed with breath.
Laura sat by the bed and calmly observed her daughter's profile. She was a very stubborn woman, but she suddenly felt distressed when she saw the gauze on Emilia's forehead. She carefully recalled everything Su Tao had said to herself. , Emilia became what she is now, and she indeed has an unshirkable responsibility.
Laura sighed softly, seeming to say to herself: "Emilia, I know you are full of hatred for you. In the past, I have been too strict with you. I did not give You are free enough. You are like a canary trapped in a cage. I apologize to you and promise you that from now on, you will not restrict your freedom and interfere with your marriage. "
Emilia didn't expect Laura to say these things, and slowly sat up from the bed, staring at her mother in amazement.
There were tears in the corner of Laura's eyes, and her eyes were full of warm colors. This was an emotion Emilia had almost never seen.
"What's wrong with you?" Emilia said in disbelief. "This is not like selfish you at all. Are you planning any conspiracy?"
Faced with Emilia’s temptation or irony, Laura didn’t care at all. She sighed heavily, “Emilia, I have to tell you something. In fact, I’ve always been ill. The illness is a bit similar. From the time you were born, I discovered that I had depression because your father betrayed our marriage while I was pregnant. Although I have been taking medicine secretly, I often relapsed over the years, so When I educate you and Albert, I always have bad emotions. Especially for you, I am very strict."
Emilia showed a look of consternation in her eyes and said in disbelief: "I don't believe it, you must be deceiving me, but you want me to forgive you, just a reason and an excuse."
Emilia really resents Laura deeply.
Laura lowered her head, took out the medicine bottle from her bag, and put it next to Emilia, "I don’t know if you remember this medicine bottle. I have kept it by my side for so many years. The medicine bottle contains a cure for depression. I’m worried that I’ll get sick suddenly, so I keep it by my side at any time.”
Emilia's eyes widened. She noticed this detail when she was very young. At that time, she asked Laura what was in the medicine bottle. At the time, Laura told herself that it was just some stomach medicine.
"Why have you concealed us for so many years?" Emilia's voice was a little hoarse, and it was difficult for her to accept this result. For a long time, she thought Laura was a too strong mother, but who would have thought that she had been harassed by illness for many years.
Laura's mouth suddenly appeared, and she faced her daughter and told her this secret that had been hidden for many years, which made her much easier.For so many years, she has always been careful to protect this secret from anyone knowing it. In fact, it is extremely painful deep in her heart. Now that she has said it, she feels a lot of emotional venting, at least from Emilia’s tone and There was a hint of warm concern in his eyes.
"As you said, I am a selfish woman." Tears flickered in Laura's eyes. "If your father learns that her wife has depression, what end do you think I will face?"
Emilia was asked.
When Laura was pregnant, her husband couldn't help being lonely and temptation, and went out to fool around. If she learned that she was suffering from depression, wouldn't her status be even more precarious?
So for so many years, Laura has remained tight-lipped, concealing her depression, and keeping others from knowing it, silently suffering and fighting against her illness.Laura was a bit too much of Emilia's restraints, but she actually had to endure more pain than Emilia.
Emilia wanted to understand everything instantly, and when her eyes were cast on Laura, she was suddenly filled with sympathy and pity, "Sorry, mother, I blamed you."
Emilia recalled the strict requirements that Laura had placed on herself for so many years. It seemed that many times she was unkind, but she still didn't want Emilia to be independent.
Laura paid too much for Emilia to be born in this world, so her requirements for Emilia were extremely strict.
Hearing Emilia’s apology, Laura smiled at the corner of her mouth. She first wiped the tears on Emilia’s face, and then immediately removed the tears from the corners of her eyes with her fingers, "Silly boy, you are too kind. You I shouldn’t forgive me so easily, because I’m an incompetent mother. I should take good care of you, but you are sick because of me.”
"No, I don't hate you at all." Emilia tried to squeeze a smile. "In the future, Albert and I will come to protect you. Don't bully you."
Laura felt the pain for so many years tolerated, and at this moment, she hugged her daughter tightly and whispered: "Baby, you have to get better quickly, yes, I need you to protect me, but The premise is that you have to get better."
Emilia buried her head in Laura's arms. From the time she remembered, Laura had been very strict, and both she and Albert respected her.
At this moment, Emilia experienced the warmth of family love from Laura.
She forgot some unpleasant experiences, and prayed silently in her heart, hoping that both Laura and herself would get better.
