The lunatic Long Qingfu had been subdued, Xie Tingxing was no longer afraid, and jumped out from behind Chu Mu's wheelchair with a look of anger on his face: "You said it lightly! This is kidnapping, changing secrets, and murdering people. We ate it." How much suffering, you just brought it over when you were sick? If you don’t forgive, it’s because we are not generous? Why don’t you take good care of yourself at home when you are seriously ill, but come out to harm others! What are you doing, brother! "
The child pointed his nose and cursed, a little impolite, but neither Xie Tingyue nor Chu Mu stopped him.
Long Qinglin also knew that he was wrong, and bowed solemnly again: "My younger brother's condition has improved this year, and we haven't committed a crime for a long time, so we are relieved to let him go out. Who knows where he was stimulated, and he committed another crime... It's really my family's fault, I didn't take good care of my younger brother, all the losses should be borne by the Long family, and I will come to the door with a big gift to apologize in the future, I dare not ask for anything else, I just ask for your understanding."
The attitude is also very sincere.
Xie Tingxing was even angrier: "My brother can't afford that little courtesy from you!"
The child's eyes are wide open, and his hands are clenched tightly. He doesn't like this kind of little troublesome adults gagging with money and gifts. Forgive yourself for being aggrieved. If you don't forgive him for being so humble, what else do you want? Let him think for himself, he can't find a particularly satisfactory solution, the reaction is uncomfortable!
Long Qinglin sighed.
"The grandfather doted on the child, and raised his younger brother to be sensitive and fragile. When the grandfather was there, no one dared to say anything. After the grandfather left, many gossips came out. The bastard was born, and the matter of the biological mother was disgraceful... Even though there was a grandfather earlier Instructed, brother-in-law remembers that my mother's name is the son-in-law, and I try my best to protect him, but he still can't hold on."
Looking past the extremely quiet Long Qingfu who was lying flat on the ground, Long Qinglin spoke slowly: "Actually, the most uncomfortable thing for so long is himself. With a clear eye, who wants to be a lunatic? He doesn't want to become a madman. Like this."
Xie Tingxing: ...
You are weak and you are right!
Long Qinglin seemed to have thought of something suddenly, and cupped his hands towards Xie Tingyue guiltily: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to emphasize the background of the concubine, but I just wanted to explain clearly to my younger brother—"
If he didn't add this sentence, Xie Tingyue didn't pay attention to this point, but if he added it, everyone would have to pay attention.
Chu Mu held Xie Tingyue's hand, and moved forward in the wheelchair, with a more elegant smile than Long Qinglin's: "So before your mansion revealed to the Qi's family to propose marriage, it was your brother Ling?"
Long Qinglin: "How could it be? My younger brother is like this, he is still ill, how can he drag other girls down? My aunt was kind at the time, she wanted to tell me about my relatives. You all know that my late wife has passed away for three years. Giving no one to support…”
Xie Tingyue snorted coldly in her heart, I believe you a ghost!
Qi Yingfei is only twelve years old, why did she immediately come over to host the middle school for you? It was obvious that Long Qingfu was thinking about Qi Yingfei, and the Long family saw it, so they wanted to marry Qi Yingfei and take care of him. Now that things are so big, it's not good for the family's reputation to be damaged, so Long Qinglin temporarily changed it!
"The family didn't take good care of me, and my younger brother caused a catastrophe. In any case, it was my Long family's fault. For the sake of not causing serious consequences, please give my Long family a face and let me take my younger brother away. I can promise that I will take good care of you in the future, and this matter will never cause you to be wronged!"
Long Qinglin bowed again.
For others to do this, as a sensible adult, naturally they have to be reluctant.
The most important thing is that this Long Qinglin is very mature, the movements of wiping his younger brother's ass are perfect, and he is full of words, obviously he can't get more words out, no amount of pestering is useless.
Xie Tingyue laughed: "Young Master Long, you don't need to be like this. Now that the misunderstanding has been resolved, I would like to ask the servants of your family to make way. My husband and brother-in-law have suffered repeated shocks and are not strong enough to hold on."
"I'm in a hurry at the next moment, and the heart of a villain is over the heart of a gentleman." Long Qinglin waved his hand immediately, "What are you still doing, make way!"
Chu Mu signaled Qin Ping to take He Youwen, the little fat man who had fainted earlier, and the group passed by.
Today's scene is in the past, but things are not certain.
Long Qingfu hurt Shen Sanniang and Qi Yingfei, this is definitely going to happen, his relationship with He Yuanqi is doubtful, as the eldest brother, does Long Qinglin know? With what kind of attitude to look at this matter
Chu Mu: "There is also Tao Mushu."
"Well, we need to check."
Xie Tingyue felt a little weak, and she wouldn't admit mistakes indiscriminately, so what made Long Qing misunderstand him
I have experienced too many things today, but fortunately there was no danger, the little fat man He Youwen woke up halfway, alive and well, Chu Mu developed a fever in the middle of the night, Xie Tingyue kept paying attention, found it in time, took medicine, the next day Good day. The younger brother was strong and strong, and the doctor had seen the leg injury, and he assured him that he was fine. He prescribed soothing soup for the child, fearing that he would not be able to sleep well due to the fright.
Both Shen Sanniang and Qi Yingfei received news that they were not injured and slept well, so let him not worry about it too much.
Xie Tingyue was relieved, and finally began to find a way to find out the name Tao Mushu.
It's just that they didn't expect that Chu Mu's news came back much faster than him.
"Long Qinglin didn't lie to us, Long Qingfu did suffer from hysteria, and he was still seriously ill." Chu Mu handed a file to Xie Tingyue.
Xie Tingyue opened it and understood.
Long Qingfu and Long Qinglin's father are not the same thing, they tend to be violent, and the regular wife, that is, Long Qinglin's biological mother, has a powerful family, so he dare not go too far. Hitting is common. For the sake of the family's reputation, I would never say that my man was wrong outside, and it was always the fault of the concubine, who was only punished if he was fond of prostitution.
Long Qingfu watched his biological mother suffer such torture all year round, how could he not feel the slightest bit? His biological mother was tortured, but he was raised by his grandfather in rich clothes and fine food. What did he think as a child
Whenever he shows that he can't bear to be sad, in order to prevent the old man from begging the old man to get upset, and everyone can't follow suit, the servants will persuade him, saying that women are like this, and everyone comes here like this, and it must be wrong to be beaten. Not good, if you are good, you won't be beaten, you are born so lowly, and you still want to have a backbone, this is wrong, if you don't twist it, you will definitely not be able to live... How much thought did he have in his mind
Day after day, year after year, there is no solution, only distortion.
"Long Qingfu fell ill at the time, playing the role of his grandfather Long Fang. Long Fang did have a deep love for a girl when he was young, and there was no fate to get together, but whether this girl was snatched away by Tao Mushu is not sure. .”
Chu Mu's slender fingertips landed on the file on the table: "This Tao Mushu is very mysterious."
Xie Tingyue looked at the information on the dossier, and also discovered: "I used to have many names, Tao Zhu? Taozihong?"
What is this mess
"I don't know how he did it. He brought out a lot of business tycoons. He doesn't do business himself, but because of the dry shares in these merchant industries, he is rich in the world." Chu Mu's voice was slow, as if he was thinking at the same time, "He is still in business. Having been an official in the court, he is full of talent, and his vision is so wide and far-sighted that ordinary people can't match it."
Xie Tingyue also saw it: "At the age of nineteen, he was selected to serve as the emperor's servant. This is not a short period of time as an official. Why is it rarely heard of by the outside world? Huh? I have a very congenial relationship with the late emperor..."
Seeing this line of fine print, Xie Tingyue found it hard to calm down.
The former emperor Jingdi succeeded to the throne at the age of ten, with weak rulers and strong ministers, one can imagine how difficult the situation was, but Jingdi survived, not only survived, but also solved many problems and serious problems, leaving a bright future for the current emperor.
Emperor Jing reigned for twenty-five years. He had no heirs and had no heirs. He chose a younger brother to be the prince and inherit the country. When he abdicated, Emperor Jing was in his prime, and many people had countless guesses, but he turned around gracefully and was never seen again. After many years, some people said that he had passed away, some people said that he obtained the Taoism and cultivated to become an immortal. In short, there is no news of this person in the world anymore.
The same goes for Tao Mushu, who disappeared more simply than Emperor Jing. Not only did he not hear from him afterwards, but his previous actions were artificially downplayed, as if there had never been such a person in the world.
'I am very congenial with the late emperor', this line of words is very small and cryptic, it seems that I am afraid of touching any taboo, so I dare not write it realistically, but no matter how small and cryptic, it is difficult to let people not like it if it is placed in this place Think in that direction!
Could it be that Tao Mushu and Emperor Jing...
Chu Mu: "Tao Mushu has a beautiful mind and an outstanding demeanor. Now the tax system of the Ministry of Households, the laws of the Ministry of Punishment, and the construction of the Ministry of Industry are all the embryonic forms of reforms under his guidance. The foreigners in the north and the barbarians in the southwest are the result of his past negotiations I have lived in peace for many years. I heard that the appearance is also handsome, with the appearance of a banished fairy, and there are many admirers, so... "
Xie Tingyue: "So he robbed Long Fang's sweetheart, causing Long Fang to be entangled in his heart for a lifetime, and grandson Long Qingfu just looked at it with distress?"
"I mean," Chu Mu looked helplessly at Xie Tingyue, "so you should look very similar to him, that Long Fang often pointed at the portrait and cursed at people, only Long Qingfu would admit his mistake."
It's a pity that there is very little information on Tao Mushu, even if there is a portrait left, the owner will not announce it, and he can't find it in a short time, otherwise Chu Mu really wants to see how similar he is to Xie Tingyue.
Xie Tingyue was very surprised: "Even if there are similarities, there shouldn't be too many similarities? My biological mother is Teng's concubine, who married into Xie's family with her aunt, and her surname is Liu and not Tao, so she has nothing to do with someone surnamed Tao. Why? Will I be like the Tao family after giving birth? That Long Qingfu is probably sick and lame, everyone looks like an enemy."
Chu Mu pondered: "You and your brother are alike only when you smile."
Xie Tingyue: "Well, I look like my biological mother."
Chu Mu: "Your mother's surname is Liu, the son of the Gan family?"
"No," Xie Tingyue shook her head, "It was rescued from outside, and she stayed with Miss Gan's family to repay her kindness. , and married her to the Xie family."
The marriage of Gan Xie's family is embarrassing to say the least.
The Gan family is a well-known prosperous family in the capital, Xie Liangbei is only from a clean family background, no matter how he chooses, the family background is far away, and it is impossible to get married, but at that time the Gan family did not know what troubles they caused, the whole family was implicated, and those who were dismissed were dismissed. The copy of the birth, the daughter of the Gan family, married Xie Liangbei just like that.
Up to now, the Gan family has not been able to rise again. In order not to implicate the married woman, the Gan family lived in a low-key manner behind closed doors, cruelly broke off the relationship, and never visited their daughter once for many years. Xie Tingyue also knew about the Gan family. Very few, including his biological mother.
All he knew was told to him by the two mothers who occasionally got up.
Chu Mu pondered: "If your biological mother has a relationship with the Tao family, there may be unexpected troubles around you in the future."
Such speculation may not be true, but we must be vigilant.
Xie Tingyue really didn't think about it in this direction: "I have grown up so much and I have encountered any trouble..."
wrong.
Isn't Lin the big|trouble he encountered
Xie Tingyue didn't think there was anything special about this before. The children left by her stepmother and her ex-wife were born enemies. Mrs. Lin hated him and Xie Tingxing. He didn't think it was abnormal. They just fought.
But thinking about it now, Lin's hatred for him seems to be quite large.
It stands to reason that he is just a concubine, and does not pose much threat to the interests of Lin and his children, because he protects Xie Tingxing, and Lin hates him for being normal, but he can torture him to death... Even Lin's murder of Xie Tingxing was extremely simple, and he was just as good as him. Much more ruthless, not only insulting him, but also wanting him to die too soon. It was as if he was intentionally keeping him as a spectator, seeing how beautiful she was, and seeing how miserable he was, all kinds of resentment and resentment were the only way to relieve his anger.
And the accidents that followed in the last life were really all caused by Lin
Xie Tingyue carefully recalled her recent contact with Lin.
Lin is very smart, obviously, and has a lot of scheming. She is especially good at judging a man's sense of proportion, but she has the ability to deal with all the chaos
Did he think too highly of Mrs. Lin? Or... He accidentally put what others did on Lin's body
If so-
Xie Tingyue's throat was a little dry, and her voice was very soft, with uncertainty: "... Maybe someone else wants to kill me."
A pair of warm hands came over.
Chu Mu turned his head to look at him: "Huh?"
Xie Tingyue's heart skipped a beat.
distracted.
What happened in my previous life... can't be said.
"No, nothing."
Chu Mu squeezed the palm of his hand, his eyes slightly lonely.
He took Xie Tingyue's water glass away.
Xie Tingyue's mouth was dry, and she stretched out her hand: "No need to continue, this is enough."
Chu Mu took the cup away: "No."
Xie Tingyue: "Don't make trouble, give it to me."
Chu Mu took the cup further: "No."
Xie Tingyue: ...
Childish or not
"You beg me, beg me, and I'll give it to you."
The amount of information and associations brought by the dossier was really bad. Xie Tingyue was not in the mood to play games, but seeing Chu Mu's eyes were sharp, and even the smile on his face was suppressed, it seemed that he was playing very seriously: "You..."
"Because of my physical condition, although I never uttered the word 'begging', I have always been begging for help in every action and every move. Occasionally—" Chu Mu looked down at his hand, and his whole body was full of loneliness, " Occasionally, I also want to have a taste of being begged."
The atmosphere suddenly became sad.
How could Xie Tingyue have the heart to hurt Chu Mu like this? Immediately follow the good advice: "I beg you."
"Good job."
Chu Mu took the water glass and handed it directly to Xie Tingyue's lips.
Xie Tingyue drank a few sips with his hand, the thirst in her throat was relieved, and she felt a little lighter.
Chu Mu looked at him and smiled: "Look, it's not that difficult to say it."
Xie Tingyue was startled.
Chu Mu wasn't playing games just now...
He was teaching him in the form of a game, don't worry about everything, learn to ask for help, and there is no shame in asking people around you for help.
'Occasionally I want to try being asked', in one sentence, a dozen or so words, really just casually
Xie Tingyue didn't believe it.
He must have thought so to say so.
In order not to let him have a psychological burden, he also deliberately chose the way of the game.
Xie Tingyue: "... why?"
Why are you so nice to him
Chu Mu smiled now, with crooked brows and eyes, and a smile in his eyes: "Because you are my wife. Even though I want to give you the best things in the world, it's a pity that I have been ill for a long time and have nothing to lose. You can't even give me a good hug."
He took Xie Tingyue's hand, put it on his lips and kissed it lightly: "Madam can ask me for anything, as long as you want it, as long as I have it."
Xie Tingyue felt that the palm being pulled was very hot, the back of the hand that was kissed was very hot, and the other party's eyes were also very hot. He wanted to hide, but there was nowhere to hide.
Chu Mu really likes to see his wife shy, but he also knows how to be careful. After kissing the back of the hand, he only stared at the other party's lips for a second, and then gave up: "I don't have anything, swords and flames, for the sake of my wife - I will definitely take it." arrive."
He raised the corners of his lips and blinked at Xie Tingyue. His left eye didn't move, but he only blinked his right eye. With a bright smile on his face, he looked quite like a child of an aristocratic family.
Lively and bright, captivating.
Xie Tingyue felt that this could not go on like this, otherwise her heart would not be able to take it anymore!
He pulled out his hand and glared at Chu Mu: "Speak as you say, what a joke!"
Chu Mu watched him subconsciously rub the kissed hands, and smiled meaningfully.
Xie Tingyue resisted the urge to put her hands behind her back, tried her best to concentrate, and brought the topic back: "I just suspect that my stepmother may have colluded with someone else to kill me, but I don't know who this person is, or Does it exist or not?"
"Okay," Chu Mu responded simply, "I'll check for Madam."
Xie Tingyue nodded sullenly: "Thank you so much."
Too shocking information may bring uncertain results, Chu Mu understands Xie Tingyue's flustered and restless mind at this moment, and continues to use his own method to comfort: "I treat you so well, but you like big eyes, clean eyes Bright, big talking eyes, the sister of the Qi family has big eyes, but I don't."
Xie Tingyue: ...
Where is this going! Who are you playing? Whose awkward little daughter-in-law!
"Hmph," Chu Mu snorted arrogantly, "Come with me for a drink, or if you show me the drink, I'll forgive you."
Xie Tingyue: ...
All right.
There is nothing else left and right, my mind is like a mess, I can't figure it out, why don't I relax, sleep and calm down, then I can think carefully and know how to go in the future.
So Xie Tingyue got drunk.
The consciousness of drinking is not clear, and I still remember to hold the cup opposite: "You—don't drink!"
In the past, Chu Mu had no love in his life and would indulge himself. Now that he has someone he loves, he knows how to control what he wants to do. He wants to show it to Xie Tingyue. He just likes the feeling of being controlled by his wife. When Xie Tingyue is not at home, he Never secretly drink.
"Okay, I won't drink, I'll watch you drink."
Xie Tingyue made a 'snap', and put the wine cup on the table boldly: "Quick! Fill it up for your wife!"
"Good lady."
Chu Mu rested his chin on his hands, and looked at Xie Tingyue's drunk appearance with a smile.
Xie Tingyue drinks very lightly, but after five drinks, her cheeks turn red, and after seven drinks, she starts to talk more. But no matter how drunk he is, his eyes are very bright, clear and clear, like holding up a handful of moonlight, you can't help but look again and again.
Even the big tongue is cute.
"I shrink back from you, can't I be willful? You are so old, and you still care about other little girls..."
"Qi Ying, Ying, what's the matter with Ying? Never mind, it's that little girl Liang, who is so talented, and I'm not like a beast, how could I have dirty thoughts about a little girl..."
"Who doesn't like big eyes? You don't like it?"
"Okay, I don't like it, it's fine if I don't like it! I just like masculine eyes. The shape should be slender, the eyes should be lower, and the eyelashes should be very dense and dense, just like ink paintings... Hiccup, so Your eyes are the prettiest!"
"By the way, young master Chu, you are too long, why are your fingers so slender and your throat so beautiful?"
While talking, Xie Tingyue continued to stretch out her hands to touch Chu Mu's fingers and throat.
Unable to touch it through the table, he stood up and walked towards Chu Mu swayingly.
"Be careful—" Afraid of throwing someone down, Chu Mu quickly reached out to catch him.
Xie Tingyue still felt that the other party was in the way, so she patted his hand away, and was especially good at finding a place, so she sat directly in Chu Mu's arms, which happened to be convenient for him to touch his throat.
"Why aren't mine so pretty..."
Touching Chu Mu's, and then touching his own, the comparison between the two sides is very melancholy.
Chu Mu pressed his hand: "I can't touch it anymore."
Xie Tingyue was still not happy, she frowned and complained: "Why can't you touch it? You just said that as long as I want it, as long as you have it, it's changed now!"
Chu Mu didn't speak, just looked at Xie Tingyue quietly, the bottom of his eyes was stained with darkness, and the calm tide began to surge undercurrents.
"Otherwise I will let you touch mine too?" Xie Tingyue felt that she had found a suitable solution, "This way everyone will be fair, no more trouble!"
Xie Tingyue pulled his hand close to the warm skin, the delicate collarbone was clearly visible, Chu Mu's voice was hoarse: "Are you sure?"
Xie Tingyue despised him very much: "They are all big men, why are you ashamed!"
The memory of that night was very chaotic, Xie Tingyue forgot a lot after waking up, only remembering dreaming about Chu Mu again.
No longer always smiling, elegant and dignified during the day, Chu Mu in his dream was cold-eyed, domineering and frightening.
He was not allowed to say no, he was not allowed to resist, and he was not allowed to escape, so Chu Mu pressed him against the wall, on the bed, and made all kinds of kisses.
That beautiful, slender hand seems to be able to ignite a fire, wherever it is placed, it will become hot, and in the end it feels hot all over...
He heard Chu Mu's hoarse voice: "I not only need you, I also need to be needed by you."
"Don't hide anything from me."
The things that are deeply hidden in the eyes, buried in the heart, and can't be seen clearly even after thousands of mountains and rivers, now finally clear the clouds and see the fog, and see clearly.
That was Chu Mu's heart.
To marry him, Chu Mutu wanted nothing but him.
"I'm not afraid of having a weakness, because it will give me strength. Xie Er, you have to believe that you and the people you care about are stronger than you think."
"Don't be afraid at any time, I am here."
In the end, it was a soft, moist, lingering kiss to the extreme: "Be obedient, huh?"
Xie Tingyue opened her eyes, touched her lips subconsciously, the feeling in the dream had long since disappeared, and there was no breath or smell.
Chu Mu... really kissed him
Why is this dream so real!
