(I don’t know why yesterday’s timing was wrong, but I found out tonight that it was not sent. I have to go to the hospital for blood tomorrow, so I split the big chapter and opened it, fearing that I might not be able to make it in time tomorrow...)
Although Hehua took timely measures, Qi Jintang seemed to have caught wind and cold and started to have a fever that afternoon. Fortunately, the fever subsided quickly after taking two doses of medicine, but the symptoms of nasal congestion and cough are expected to continue for a few days. As the Chinese New Year was approaching, He Hua often had to leave him in the house to recuperate while he had to help Xiaoxiu with the New Year matters.
After arriving here, Hehua has not met Sun Jianyu, and she can't tell her how she feels. Sun Jianyu has already expressed his feelings for her, but now that they are getting married, she intuitively thinks that Mrs. Sun is not interested in the past. She was aware of or knew about Qi Jintang's secret in Chapter 376, so she wanted to avoid Sun Jianyu even more, not wanting to cause trouble to his current life.
But sometimes, the more you want to avoid something, the easier it is to get involved.
That morning, Hehua was called to her room by Xiaoxiu. All the clothes she had ordered before had been delivered. After looking through the clothes, Hehua felt very satisfied. As expected, her craftsmanship was much better than that of the embroiderers in Qingxi County. She paid After paying, Xiaoxiu asked someone to fold all the clothes and send them back to the Lotus Room. The two of them got together to discuss the menu for the New Year's Eve dinner and chatted for a while. Hehua saw that it was almost time for Qi Jintang to take medicine. Get up and prepare to go back to your room.
Xiaoxiu originally got up to see her out, but as soon as she reached the door, she was entangled by Lizi. Hehua said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, you treat me as a guest too much? You don't have to see me off from the front yard to the back yard."
But as soon as he walked out of the corner gate of Xiaoxiu's yard and saw the figure who had just come out of his house, Hehua felt a little regretful. He didn't expect to meet Sun Jianyu at this time, but there was not even a girl beside him.
In a blink of an eye, Sun Jianyu had already noticed him. Seeing him walking over quickly, He Hua had no choice but to go up to him and say hello: "Jianyu Chapter 376 Qi Jintang's secret brother!"
"Yes!" Sun Jianyu nodded and said casually, "I just went to see Jintang. She seems to be much better. If you still feel uncomfortable, please send someone to tell me. I still have a good doctor in the city." I know a few."
Sun Jianyu's attitude made Hehua feel much more at ease. After thanking him, he looked at him discreetly. He didn't look much different from half a year ago, but his expression was more reserved and distant, not as close as before. A thick smile, but Hehua thinks this is not a bad thing.
The two of them fell silent at the same time and stood there for a moment before Sun Jianyu came back to his senses and said, "Thank you for the gift you prepared. My wife likes it very much and has been mentioning it to me these days."
"Oh, my sister-in-law likes it the best. I've always been worried that the things I chose won't suit her." Hehua didn't know whether she used the title "sister-in-law" accidentally or intentionally, but she really saw Sun Jianyu's eyebrows frowning. one time.
"If you can talk, you can go and accompany her when you have time. She and I are usually busy and are not at home often." Sun Jianyu said goodbye and said, "Jintang is waiting for you to go back for lunch, so I won't disturb you. .”
When he returned to his room, he saw Qi Jintang leaning on the couch in front of the window. Hehua looked at the confused look on his face and glanced at the window subconsciously.
The windows were closed tightly, and the thick window paper could only let in a faint light, and the things outside could not be seen at all... Hehua bit her lower lip lightly--did Sun Jianyu just say something
Miao'er had already laid out lunch quickly, but she saw that the two people in the room were strangely silent, standing at the door hesitating whether to come in or not.
Lotus took a few steps forward and put his hand on Qi Jintang's forehead. A normal warm touch came from under his hand. It seemed that the fever was no longer there. "It seems that the fever is gone. Are you still feeling uncomfortable? I went to see the newly made clothes in the morning... I ordered the menu for the New Year's Eve dinner with my sister-in-law, and we talked for a while before coming back, what did you do in the morning?"
"Jianyu came here just now..." Qi Jintang looked a little embarrassed and said carefully, "He came to visit the patient."
"Oh!" He Hua nodded, "I just met Brother Jianyu at the door. Did he say anything to you? You don't seem to look good.
Qi Jintang shook his head quickly, raised his head and glanced at Hehua, reached out to pull her to his side, put his arms around her in his arms, and put his chin on Hehua's shoulder. He thought for a moment before making up his mind and said, "You know Jianyu Na What happened to my concubine?"
Although it was a question, his tone was not a question, but instead seemed to be stating a fact. Before He Hua could admit it, he quickly added: "That's why you got drunk that day, and that's why you pulled me and asked me not to take a concubine, right?"
Hehua has no memory of her behavior after being drunk. She only remembers that she was in a very low mood before drinking. But after she was drunk, that feeling disappeared, as if it was just an unpleasant dream. When she heard Qi Jintang ask this question, she realized that she had expressed her worries when she was drunk and twisted her body slightly. However, Qi Jintang held her tightly, leaving her no room to escape, so she could only point out with embarrassment. nodded.
But she immediately turned to look at Qi Jintang and said formally: "I wasn't talking nonsense after drinking too much, that, that's what I really mean." At this point, she lowered her eyes slightly and said, "I, I know my father-in-law also has I am a concubine, and this time I came to find that Brother Jianyu is also like this... Maybe in the future, his officialdom will become bigger and bigger, and there will be more aunts and so on, but, but I Don't share you with other women. I can't do it. I really can't. I can't imagine how terrible that is. Just thinking about what might happen in the future makes me feel uncomfortable. I wish I could..."
Before he finished speaking, Qi Jintang suddenly sat up straight, reached out to hold Hehua's face, and looked straight into her eyes. The look in his eyes was a bit complicated, but there seemed to be a smile, and he reached out to brush Hehua's face away. With tears on her eyes, she kissed her eyes gently and said, "Just like what I said when you were drunk that day, I won't take a concubine. The two of us, just the two of us, will grow old together. Believe me, okay?" good?"
Hehua blushed slightly when she heard Qi Jintang's assurance. Although she liked Qi Jintang's attitude very much, she still couldn't let go completely. After all, she was newly married recently and the novelty had not faded away. The promises and guarantees made when she was young, who And I dare say it can really last a lifetime.
Qi Jintang seemed to feel the uncertainty in He Hua's heart. He relaxed his body and leaned on the soft pillow behind his back. He held He Hua in his arms, took a deep breath and said, "Don't you always want to ask me why I don't kiss Jin Ru."
Hehua didn't expect that Qi Jintang would suddenly bring up this topic. After all, she tried to ask several times, but he changed the subject very cleverly. Even if she was slower, she realized that Qi Jintang didn't want to mention this matter. She didn't expect that it would happen today. Speaking of it at this time, she couldn't help but wonder, could it be that today's topic made him not want to answer it more than this matter, so he changed the topic again
But before she could finish her random thoughts, Qi Jintang's voice rang in her ears again, "The year my mother was pregnant, there was another aunt in the family who was pregnant at the same time, so my mother was never in a good mood. When I was still young, I just felt that my mother was not as gentle and smiling as usual, but I didn’t know why. I could only try my best to memorize books and poems, hoping that she would stop worrying about me. Later... "
When Qi Jintang said this, his arms around Lotus tightened involuntarily, and he stopped abruptly mid-sentence.
Hehua didn't ask, she could only hear his heavy breathing in her ears. She seemed to be suppressing her emotions. She was silent for a long time before speaking again with difficulty: "On the day my mother gave birth to the child, my father gave me to the nanny to take away. But I was worried about my mother, so I slipped out while the nanny was not paying attention and hid behind the curtain in the hall. I... I heard Grandma Wen come out and say to my father that the baby my mother gave birth to was a boy, but... ····It was already stillborn when it was born, and its body was already blue and black..."
"Oh my God!" He Hua couldn't help but exclaimed softly. In fact, she had noticed something was wrong just now. When Qi Jintang mentioned that Qi's mother gave birth, she only said that it was the time when she gave birth to a baby instead of giving birth to Jin Ru, but she still felt a little bit He asked in disbelief, "Can it be said that Jin Ru is..."
Qi Jintang nodded slightly, and then thought that the lotus flower could not be seen from the angle, and then sighed softly: "I was scared and sleepy later, so I fell asleep behind the curtain. The next day It was my wet nurse who found me. She was afraid of being blamed by my parents, so she never dared to say anything. But when I woke up, everyone in the family happily started celebrating that my mother had given birth to a little sister for me, and that aunt... soon went crazy. He was finally imprisoned in Zhuangzi by his father, and there was no news about him after that. He must have died long ago."
Lotus stretched out her hand to cover Qi Jintang's hand, trying to warm his cold and trembling hand. After thinking for a long time, she said: "That is to say, mother-in-law doesn't actually know about this, right?"
"Well, Mom has always regarded Jin Ru as her biological daughter. I also know that Jin Ru is innocent and understand her desire to get close to me, but I..." Qi Jintang sighed in frustration, "I really can't help her. Treat her like a biological sister.
After saying this, he suddenly changed the topic back and said: "So you don't have to worry about taking concubines and raising aunts. I have never thought about such a problem before, now or in the future."! ! !
