Mrs. Tian led Qining out of the elegant hall, took a lantern hanging outside, and led Qining through the corridor and through the courtyard. When he arrived at a courtyard at the west end, it was extremely quiet. When he entered the quiet courtyard, he saw a few spots inside the house. Turning on the light, Mrs. Tian whispered: "Master Hou, Fu'er is afraid of strangers. If there is any offense, don't be offended."
Qi Ning nodded and said: "I can understand it."
Mrs. Tian smiled softly, then went over to open the door and hung the lantern aside. Qining followed her into the house. She saw a girl of seventeen or eighteen years old lying on a chair and dozing off. The two came in. The little maid didn't notice that Mrs. Tian frowned slightly, with a slightly displeased look in her eyes, but she didn't startle her. She went over and knocked on the door gently, saying softly: "Fu'er, it's mother, she's not asleep yet." Do you want to get off?"
There was no sound in the room, and Mrs. Tian said: "Mom, let's go in!" She pushed the door open slightly and went in. Once inside, she turned around and waved gently to Qining.
Qining followed Mrs. Tian into the house. The house was very quiet. Under the lights, the furnishings were quite elegant and simple. In addition to a clean and tidy bed, there was a dressing table next to it and a small mahogany table in the middle. Qi Ning saw, by the back window, a girl in green clothes sitting by the window. Half of the window was open, and the breeze was blowing. The girl had her back to this side and was sitting there motionless, like a puppet.
Mrs. Tian and Qining looked at each other. From Mrs. Tian's eyes, Qining clearly saw the look of helplessness and sadness. He smiled softly and encouraged Mrs. Tian. When Mrs. Tian saw Qining's smile, she felt at ease in her heart. She also smiled tenderly, walked over lightly, and when she got to the girl's side, she said softly: "Fu'er, mother often tells you that it's easy to catch a cold when sitting by the window, why are you disobedient?"
The girl was motionless, as if she was staring out the window in a daze, saying nothing.
Mrs. Tian raised her hand, as if she wanted to touch the girl's head. She paused for a moment, then gently put her hand on the girl's shoulder, but the girl suddenly said coldly: "Take your hand away!"
Qining couldn't help but frown when he heard that Tian Fu's voice was so cold and she didn't seem to be talking to her mother. Mrs. Tian glanced at Qining, slightly embarrassed, but still took her hand away and said, "How much did you eat at night?" ?”
Tian Fu said calmly: "Who is the other one?"
Hearing this, Qi Ning knew that Tian Fu had already heard his footsteps. When he came in, he even stepped lightly. He didn't expect that this girl's hearing was so keen. Knowing that there was no need to evade at this time, he took two steps forward and said : "Hello, Miss Tian, I'm here to see you."
"Go away...!" Tian Fu suddenly said like crazy: "No one is allowed in, get out, no one is allowed to enter my house...!"
Qining didn't expect Tian Fu to react like this. Mrs. Tian had already said anxiously: "Fu'er, this is the doctor that mother... my mother hired for you. Let him take a look...!" Seeing Tian Fu's whole body shaking, she reached out to help her. , but Tian Fu had already raised her hand and pushed Mrs. Tian on the chest. She was not old, but she was very strong. Mrs. Tian was pushed back two steps and almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, Qining's movement was quick. He stood up and stepped forward, raising his arms to block behind Mrs. Tian, thus preventing Mrs. Tian from knocking her down. He frowned and said, "Tian Fu, how dare you treat your mother like this?"
"What does it have to do with you?" Tian Fu stood up suddenly and turned around. Only then did Qi Ning see clearly. This Tian Fu indeed looked like she was only twelve or thirteen years old. In fact, her appearance was really beautiful, and her eyebrows were somewhat... Mrs. Tian's shadow has a pair of eyes closed, and there are black spots around the two eyes. Although her skin is quite fair, it is not the tender and beautiful white of Mrs. Tian, but a kind of white. She was bloodless and pale, and because of her pale skin, the dark spots around her eyes looked extremely dazzling. The originally pretty little girl looked rather ugly.
Qi Ning finally understood at this time why Mrs. Tian had been so worried about this daughter.
If she looks like this, not many men would like her. Even if she marries her, it must be for the Tian family's property. Mrs. Tian naturally has a deep meaning in setting up the arena. No wonder she, after the arena, She was forced to stay in the farm house by the Tian family and was not allowed to leave. Mrs. Tian obviously knew it well and knew that Tian Fu was blind and had such an appearance that it would be difficult to find a suitable husband.
If Tian Fu didn't have these dark spots and was young and beautiful, even if her appearance couldn't surpass her beautiful mother, it wouldn't be too different. But now it seems that Tian Fu's appearance is too different from the mature and beautiful Mrs. Tian. Far.
Tian Fu opened her eyes slightly, but Qining could clearly see that her eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of gray film.
"Kick him away...!" Tian Fu took two steps back and pointed at Qining: "I don't want to see this kind of person. He is not a doctor. You are lying to me."
Although Tian Fu could not see the person's face clearly, she was not completely blind. She could vaguely see the outline of Qining's figure.
Mrs. Tian hurriedly said: "Fu'er, he... he is a doctor, he will treat you, you...!"
"You have been lying to me." Tian Fu said coldly: "His voice is so young, he can't be a doctor. You bully me into blindness, so you deceive me like a fool. If my father is still alive, you have Are you so brave?"
Mrs. Tian's eyes were slightly red and she said: "Fu'er, he... he means well and has no ill intentions. There is really a doctor with superb medical skills who will treat you...!"
Tian Fu raised her hands to cover her ears and shouted: "Every year you say that there is a doctor with superb medical skills, but who cured my eyes? You are deliberately laughing at me and letting these people see my ugly appearance. You are not so kind. I...are you all satisfied with the way I look now? Get out of here, get out of here!"
With tears in her eyes, Mrs. Tian said with a choked voice: "Fu'er, calm down, no one is laughing at you. Mom has always wanted to cure your disease and has been looking for a doctor for you...!"
"Looking for a doctor?" Tian Fu sneered: "You think I don't know. Dad is gone and no one can control you. No one knows who you are looking for. I...!"
"Shut up!" Mrs. Tian's face suddenly changed and she said sternly: "Fu'er, what are you talking about?"
"If I'm talking nonsense, why don't you let me continue?" Tian Fu said: "What are you afraid of? My father left me so much money, why do you still show up to do business? What are you thinking in your heart? Do you think I don't know? ?”
Qi Ning never expected that this twelve or thirteen-year-old girl could speak so cunningly, and the person she spoke to was her biological mother. She said coldly: "Miss Tian, you are so majestic. I have met many people, but none of them can be like you." So majestic.”
Tian Fu said coldly: "You... what did you say?"
"Your mother has worked so hard for you, and you don't want to repay her. Instead, you go out of your way to slander your mother in front of me, an outsider. Isn't this awe-inspiring?" Qining simply went over to the chair and sat down, saying: " She was pregnant for ten months, gave birth to you, and worked hard to raise you. After you fell ill, she didn’t think about anything for you, but only thought about arranging everything for you. She suffered so many grievances for this, and the grievances she suffered outside were not counted. , and I have to suffer humiliation in front of you, you are really powerful."
Mrs. Tian wept and said nothing, her fragrant body trembling slightly.
Tian Fu said sharply: "You still speak for her? Yes, you... of course you have to speak for her. You and her are on the same side. You know so much about the Tian family, she has told you, right? ?" He let out a mocking sneer.
"Fu'er, don't talk nonsense." Mrs. Tian heard that Tian Fu became more and more unbearable as she spoke. Although Qining had been vaccinated before coming in, Tian Fu was so hysterical that she still frightened Mrs. Tian and scolded: " The young Marquis is a good person and has been helping my Tian family, so you must not be rude."
"Little Marquis?" Tian Fu was startled for a moment, then sneered: "It turns out that you are walking with a noble man. If my father knew about it, he would be very angry with you."
Qining frowned. Tian Fu's reaction today was indeed beyond Qining's expectation, but it was not completely incomprehensible to him.
This little girl became blind when she was eight years old. Perhaps before she became blind, she had already discovered that her appearance had changed greatly. After many years, not only was the blindness incurable, but even her father suffered a sudden disaster. Death, this is naturally aggravating for Tian Fu. Her temperament is eccentric and even a little hysterical, but it is not incomprehensible.
At this time, I felt even more sympathy for Mrs. Tian and understood her hard work.
"Your father has left. Of course he will protect you, but your mother is providing for your food and clothing." Qining said coldly: "What qualifications do you have to make irresponsible remarks to her? Without her, you Do you think you can still live well?"
"I don't want to live anymore." Tian Fu shouted: "It would be better if you kill me."
"Kill you?" Qi Ning said with a smile: "As ignorant as you are, who will care about your life or death except your mother, so why bother to kill you? If you want to die, you can do it yourself."
Mrs. Tian's expression changed in shock. She never expected that Qi Ning would say this, and said anxiously: "Master Hou...!"
"Don't talk." Qi Ning said in a deep voice: "Since she wants to die, just let her die. People die every day in this world." He stared at Tian Fu and said: "How do you want to die? Hang yourself? Throw yourself. River? Or taking poison?"
Tian Fu opened her mouth, but no words came out.
"I'm not worried about your death. I'm just worried about how you will explain to your father when you see him after your death." Qining said slowly: "Your father suffered a sudden disaster. I think he has at least two things to worry about. No less. The first is you mother and daughter. He is gone. Of course I hope you mother and daughter can depend on each other and live well. The second case is of course the murderer. Your father was killed. The murderer has not been identified yet. Your father It can be said that he will never die with his eyes closed." He stood up and looked at Tian Fu with his hands behind his back: "He only has you as a daughter, and you are also his only descendant. You are only thirteen years old, your life has just begun, and you still have a lot of years left. Since you are As long as he continues, you have the responsibility to take good care of your mother, and also have the responsibility to find the murderer of your father."
Tian Fu was startled, her eyebrows furrowed, Qining continued: "I know what you are thinking, you are just thinking about how you can find the real murderer of your father when you are like this and you are a girl, right? "
Tian Fu, who was still hysterical just now, unexpectedly nodded her head.
"Of course." Qining said slowly: "Today you got to know me, that's the first step!"
