Chapter 46
Chapter 46
With his father's strong reassurance, Qi Ge suddenly felt better, and he began to teach Lin Yan how to play this game.Although this has been sold on the market for a long time, it is obviously impossible for Lin Yan to have these toys.
Lin Yan learned from Qi Ge seriously for a while, and then his strength crushed him.
Most of the time, Qi Ge couldn't win. He took one last look at the enthusiastic Lin Yan and said seriously: "Ah! It's time to go to bed. A good boy shouldn't play for too long."
Lin Yan was slightly disappointed, but still restrained herself and followed Qi Ge obediently.
When Qi Shiqin saw the little tail behind his son, he realized that he seemed to have forgotten to say hello to the adults of the child's family. He asked, "Xiaoyan, where do you live? Is it okay if you don't go home? Uncle, go and say hello to your parents." Bar."
Lin Yan grabbed Qi Shiqin's sleeve and shook his head, "No need, my parents are not here, so I don't need to go back."
Qi Shiqin was shocked for a moment by the child's serious and innocent eyes. He took the child's hand and said with a smile: "Well, Xiao Yan will often come to play at Uncle's house from now on. You are very welcome at Uncle's house. Now Let's take a shower and then go to bed, shall we? Later uncle will tell you a story."
In fact, he hasn't told his son a bedtime story for a long time, all the things he knows have been cleaned up, and he keeps telling the same thing, and Qi Ge doesn't want to listen to it.
After cleansing the two little ones, Qi Shiqin put the two children side by side on the bed, and Er Bao also climbed onto the bed and found a comfortable place to lie down.
Because tonight is mainly about telling stories with Lin Yan, Qi Shiqin doesn't have to think hard for a long time, but there is a little guy next to him who has been disrupting the situation and wants to spoil the story.He turned his head to Qi Ge in distress and said, "Xiao Ge, can you be more obedient?"
Lin Yan pulled Qi Shiqin: "It's okay uncle, after knowing the ending, it's very interesting to watch the process again."
Well, Qi Shiqin once again lamented Lin Yan's sensibleness, and felt even more distressed about what happened to this child.Then he laughed at his own son's petty thinking, no matter how much he liked other children, he would never surpass his own son.
He squeezed Qi Ge's small hand with his big hand under the blanket, and stopped moving after being caught by Qi Ge, allowing him to tear his fingers one by one.
As if he had a unique little secret with his father, Qi Ge smiled sweetly.
After telling the story, Qi Shiqin was supposed to leave, but the two children and a dog all looked at him with bright eyes, obviously getting more and more excited.He had no choice but to keep talking, and a few people fell asleep just like that.
When he woke up the next day, Lin Yan was sleeping soundly with one arm in his arms, while his son put a short leg on him domineeringly, and held him with his hands.Er Bao slept on top of his head, and when he moved a bit, he obviously felt his forehead was cold.
The dog's belly was really hot, and after leaving, the temperature in the air made him feel weird.
After he yawned twice, he woke up the two children, "Xiao Ge, Xiao Yan, it's time to get up, you guys have to go to school later, don't be late."
Qi Ge still buried his little head on his stomach and rubbed his body, curled up into a ball, raised his sleepy eyes after a minute, and looked at the person next to him in a daze: "Lin Yan? Why are you here? here?"
Xiao Linyan just woke up. Looking around, he seemed to be in a good mood all of a sudden, his eyes were black and bright, very beautiful, and his little milk voice was also quite pleasant: "Good morning, uncle."
"Good morning, Xiaoyan too." Qi Shiqin rubbed Lin Yan's hair, then glanced at his son again, and said, "Good morning, Xiaoge, come and give Daddy a good morning kiss."
Each side, the two little guys came over, Qi Shiqin was taken aback, he didn't expect Lin Yan to come over and kiss him.
Lin Yan didn't expect it himself, he just watched Qi Ge go to kiss him, and he himself did it involuntarily.At this moment, I felt that my movements were a little abrupt, and I stopped talking in silence, with my eyelids drooping, it seemed that even my mood was depressed.
Qi Shiqin took the clothes of the two children over and said, "Put on your clothes quickly, or we will be late if you don't move."
The two children looked at each other, speeded up one after another, and waited for them to put on their boots. Qi Shiqin took one out with one hand, "Brush your teeth and wash your face."
A servant had already prepared the washing utensils by the side. I don't know if it was because of the little friend by the side, Qi Ge seemed to be in a much better spirit after waking up.
It wasn't until after breakfast and sending the two children to school that Qi Shiqin breathed a sigh of relief.
After returning home, Zhou Cuicui and old man Qi were also preparing to go back. Qi Shiqin was a little surprised and said, "What's the matter, mother, is it okay to live here?"
Zhou Cuicui said: "It's good, you are too leisurely here, there are servants doing everything, I don't know what to do when I get up all day, in my heart, I always think about the weeds in my field. Well, I don’t know if those few remember or not.”
Old man Qi also said: "Just know that you are doing well, and Xiao Liu will come back more often in the future."
Zhou Cuicui hurriedly said: "Your father is right, come back and see your mother when you are free."
Qi Shiqin said with a smile: "Well, when Jing Shu finishes confinement and heals up, I will often take them back. I will go to the academy to take classes later, so I can't send you off. I will let Tongfu find them at that time." I will send you in a horse-drawn carriage, saving you the exhaustion of leaving."
Zhou Cuicui nodded repeatedly.Qi Shiqin went into the house and asked Wei Jingshu to see what he should bring back to his parents. In this regard, the little husband was indeed clearer than him, so he quickly ordered the maid to find a large bag of things and put them on the carriage. , just take it back when the time comes.
When Wei Jingshu packed up his things, Zhou Cuicui was about to leave. Qi Shiqin sent them to the carriage, and then turned back to pack himself and prepare to go to the academy.
The moment he saw Lin Zhu, Qi Shiqin asked strangely: "Lin Zhu, hasn't your father come to pick you up yet?" He remembered that Lin Zhu's house was in the city next door to Yuecheng, and it took half a month. Yes, why haven't you come yet?
Lin Zhu's expression froze, and she whispered: "I, I didn't ask my father to pick me up, I was afraid that he would be angry with me if he found out..." She was about to cry as she spoke.
"Stop!" Qi Shiqin frowned, "Then you can stay here first, we'll talk about this issue when we get back, I'm going to the academy to take classes now."
He didn't have that much time to talk to Lin Zhu, especially when she cried, it would be bad if the little husband misunderstood her.
To be honest, the relationship between him and Lin Zhu didn't seem to be familiar enough to let him continue to live at home. After all, in the academy, apart from the classroom, they rarely communicated.
Seeing Qi Shiqin's back going away, Lin Zhu pursed her mouth, knowing that she should hurry up. After investigating for so long, she felt as if she knew what He Yue's golden finger was.
Just two days ago, He Yue's store reopened. It only takes the high-level route. The price is extremely expensive, but the taste is really delicious and makes people salivate.She also tasted it, but she didn't know if it was because she had traveled through time or something, but she felt that she was particularly sensitive to the content of the spiritual spring in it.
This made a thought in her mind resurface again. They are all time travelers. Maybe the Lingquan can also belong to her.
After all, her faint feeling for Lingquan did exist, and when she let Xiaocao experience it carefully, Xiaocao didn't react at all.
She also wants a fairy item like Lingquan. Thinking about it, it can make people beautiful, cure diseases, detoxify, and make food more delicious. The benefits are not too many.And think about the money He Yue made with this, the more everyone eats the better their health, and how much wealth can be created for her.
In this world where life is particularly fragile, it is simply too easy for a wealthy and powerful person to kill a person.
But Lin Zhu is still not sure how to take the Lingquan back, and this matter must be concealed, and no news can be leaked.She definitely can't subdue He Yue by herself, she doesn't have much strength.
And if she uses the strength of her family, she will definitely not be able to hide this matter from her father. Besides, she is also worried that the people she sent will repent.She didn't want to test humanity with this temptation that mortals could not refuse.
And... Lin Zhu fell into deep thought. What she was most worried about was that what He Yue held was not just a spiritual spring, but a portable space. In this case, as long as she hid in the space, she would be completely helpless.So so far, she is still on the sidelines.
First of all, she had to go and see He Yue first, to find out the details of the other party.
However, before Lin Zhu thought about how she should meet He Yue, not long after lunch, she heard that He Yue had been arrested, and she was arrested just today, fresh and hot.
Lin Zhu looked at Xiaocao: "Why did you say He Yue was arrested?" She doubted her ears, the food made from Lingquan water would only make people eat more and healthier, so it would kill people Woolen cloth!
Xiaocao trembled a little under Lin Zhu's gaze, humming, the lady's eyes were so weird, she said: "I heard that the young master of the Li family died after eating He Yue's stewed meat. I heard that this is their family flower. I paid a huge price for the package, and this package was just launched today." Speaking of which, He Yue is also like her own lady, always saying some strange things, what is a package.
"The young master of the Li family." Lin Zhu repeated.
Xiaocao nodded: "Yes, I heard that the young master of the Li family has been weak and sick all the time, relying on medicine to support him. Although he can't be cured, his life is not in danger for the time being. One day he smelled the smell of He's stewed pork, I really want to eat it, and He’s Braised Pork is said to be good for health, so his family bought it for him, and just finished eating it, before anyone can lie down, it just disappeared.”
Lin Zhu pointed his chin with his finger, thinking, could this be the legend that the void cannot be filled?But this is a spiritual spring!Shouldn't you feel better immediately after eating it?
Lin Zhu decided to wait and see. Although her family is an imperial merchant, it is not a powerful family. The matter of Yuecheng cannot be controlled by her family.And who is the new magistrate of Yuecheng?
She waved her hand and asked Xiaocao to go out to find out the news.
As for Qi's family, Qi Sanlang and the two children, they were all in a daze. In the morning, He Yue said to go to the shop to check the accounts. Why did something happen all of a sudden?
Xiao Tao and Xiao He were also at a loss.Xiaotao asked: "Father, mother, what happened to her? What should we do now?"
Xiao He looked at her father's flustered look, pulled his clothes, and said with tears: "Father, you can't panic now, we have to find a way to save mother."
"Yes." Xiaotao came to her senses and said, "Let's go to Uncle Six. Isn't he Juren? Besides, his mentor seems to be a high official in the imperial court before. He will definitely find a solution."
Qi Sanlang also agreed with Xiaotao's statement in his heart, and he immediately confessed: "Then let's hurry up and watch the carriage come, and go to the city immediately to find your sixth uncle."
The three of them were sitting in the carriage, Qi Sanlang swung his whip so fast that the two little girls couldn't sit still in the carriage, but they were not in the mood to worry so much now.He Yue's dominance made her the pillar of the family, and the two little girls were flustered right now.
When we arrived at Qi's residence, the concierge came up to announce the visit of Qi Sanlang's family. Wei Jingshu was still a little strange, thinking to himself, isn't this family trying to break up with the Qi family?How could you find him here?
When Wei Jingshu married into the Qi family, He Yue had already separated from the Qi family. In fact, they didn't have much contact, and they wouldn't even initiate a conversation when they met.But thinking of his husband's tolerant attitude towards his family, he nodded and said, "Then invite them in."
After giving birth, he has been nursing for more than half a month, and his body is fine. As long as he does not exercise strenuously or overwork, he can walk around the house without any problem.
He was dressed more casually, and thinking of meeting a guest, he asked the servant girl to wait on him and change another clothes.
At this time, Qi Sanlang was waiting anxiously in the hall.After waiting for a while, Xiaotao said impatiently, "Why haven't they come yet?"
Xiao He patted her younger sister's arm lightly. They came here to ask for help. In the past, Mother and Xiao Tao's attitude towards others was not very good. Now they are so picky, it really shouldn't be.She said: "We came here suddenly, my uncle may have something to do right now, just wait a little longer, and the problem cannot be solved in a hurry."
Not long after, Wei Jingshu walked in. He sized up the anxious Qi Sanlang, and asked, "I don't know what the third brother is talking about here?"
Qi Sanlang felt uneasy, rubbed his hands, and asked, "Is Xiaoliu not at home?" He looked behind Wei Jingshu.
Wei Jingshu said: "Xianggong goes to the academy to teach every day, and he will come back in the afternoon. It's okay for the third brother to tell me if there is something to do. I will tell him when Xianggong comes back." According to the regulations of the academy, the master can leave the courtyard around Shenshi , but sometimes to instruct students and correct articles, Qi Shiqin will come back later.
Before Qi Sanlang could speak, Xiaotao interjected immediately: "Then can you send someone to call my uncle back? We have something urgent to find him."
Although it was a question, her natural tone made it difficult to make people feel good.And without first telling him what happened.
Wei Jingshu immediately became a little unhappy, and said: "It's almost late now, and it won't be long before Mr. Xianggong returns. You have to walk up the mountain to the academy. It's almost the time for him to come back this time. You should wait a little longer. .”
He was not very well informed, and he didn't pay special attention to He Yue's affairs, so he naturally didn't know what happened to Qi Sanlang's family.Besides, there was nothing wrong with what he said, Qi Shiqin was indeed coming back soon.
When the three heard this, they had no choice but to hold back their emotions, sat down and waited, but they really didn't plan to tell Wei Jingshu the purpose of their visit.In Qi Sanlang's heart, although Wei Jingshu is the son of the magistrate's family, after all, the county magistrate Wei has already left, and he can't control here, and it's useless to talk about it.
The more he talked about it, the more flustered he would feel. This matter still had to wait for Xiao Liu to come back.
Therefore, Wei Jingshu looked around at these people, and didn't want to accompany them, so he said directly: "I just gave birth to a baby, and I'm inconvenient, so I won't stay here any longer. Third brother, wait a little longer, Mr. Xianggong should be back soon. "
It should be said that Wei Jingshu has stayed in Qi's house for so long, and he also knows the villagers, as long as you have a legitimate reason, they generally don't care about these small issues, not to mention etiquette, and they rarely have the concept of this aspect.That's why he was able to say this so simply and neatly.
Sure enough, Qi Sanlang didn't feel that there was anything wrong, and even felt that his arrival had caused trouble to others.When I saw Wei Jingshu asking his servants to bring them refreshments and tea, I felt even more considerate.
***
After leaving the academy, it was still early, and the moon city was still relatively lively at this time, with a bustling crowd. Qi Shiqin went shopping along the street and ate a lot of delicious things.
Thinking of Wei Jingshu, who is not taboo on meat and vegetables at home and has a big appetite, he went to the inn and bought a roast duck.Walking on the street, without wiping for a while, he bumped into a girl, Qi Shiqin hurriedly apologized: "Sorry, girl, are you okay?"
A pretty little girl complained, "Why don't you know how to watch the road?"
"Welcome to the incense." Liu Qingyan scolded in disapproval.The little maid curled her lips, the young lady is always so kind-hearted, others will have to bully her.
Looking up at the person in front of her, Liu Qingyan's beautiful eyes flickered, her heart trembled, and she opened her mouth slightly: "You...you..." After a long while, she finally spoke, her tone was full of sadness, "You are finally back."
As soon as the words fell, tears fell uncontrollably, one by one, covered by the white gauze on her face.
Obviously, the street is not a good place to catch up and chat, so they found a private room in a restaurant to sit down.
Qi Shiqin was a little dazed. When he got drunk at Chunxiangyuan, this woman took care of him most of the time.He is somewhat grateful, but he is very clear that this is not love, he has only loved one person from the beginning to the end.
At that time, Qi Shiqin became a teacher in the academy because of the help of his mentor. Because his talent and reputation were too outstanding in Qingshan Academy, there were no students who were not convinced.He just sighed behind his back about his leg injury and those rumors, which made his usual noble temperament unbearable.
He was also worried that getting drunk at his own home would make his parents worry, so he took Chunxiangyuan as a place for him to relax, and he always went there five or six times a month.Naturally, with his money, he can't afford such a good house, but he is talented and good-looking, and there are many women who want to be with him even if they pay money.
But no one can stand a person who knows how to drink without even looking at himself. After a long time, only Liu Qingyan will take care of him tenderly.
At that time Liu Qingyan was not the number one name in Chunxiang Yuan, Qi Shiqin was moved by her concern and wrote a long poem for her.Liu Qingyan has outstanding looks and superb piano skills, but there are many women like her in the courtyard. This talent greatly increased her reputation, and she became the head of all the girls in Chunxiang Academy.
After that, she treated Qi Shiqin even better, but Qi Shiqin could vaguely feel that this woman was sincere to him.
As for a woman who had waited for him with sincerity for so many years, Qi Shiqin felt that he should not be too cold-blooded.
He looked at each other and asked, "How are you doing now?"
Liu Qingyan smiled, with a hint of grievance: "What do you think, you clearly know what I want. Without you, how would I be better off?"
"I'm sorry." Qi Shiqin didn't know what to say, and finally he could only say: "I'm married, I was wrong at the beginning, if you need it, I can help you redeem yourself. After all, it's not a good place to end up there, you It's not good to stay there."
"And then?" Liu Qingyan asked, looking straight at Qi Shiqin: "I'm a girl who doesn't know anything, how will I live after I come out."
Qi Shiqin stopped talking, but he wanted to give the other party some money every month, he was not short of these things.However, Wei Jingshu was in charge of the family's accounts, he didn't know what name he used to ask for this money, could he tell the other party that it was a romantic debt from his youth?
Wouldn't that be death!
He also has a lot of money in his space, but he doesn't want to do these things behind Wei Jingshu's back.
Qi Shiqin is a very clear person, he knows exactly what he wants.He has been taking care of him for so long, but he is not really touched now. He even feels that if it is not for him, the other party will not become the top card, and he will not be so comfortable in life.
To put it bluntly and bluntly, the quality and quantity of customers picked up is hard to say.As the top card, she can still choose people to a certain extent.
But such a thought was too harsh for a woman, so Qi Shiqin restrained himself.
"You disappeared suddenly at that time. I sent people to look for it every day. I was worried that something would happen to you. I couldn't sleep every night, and I often woke up in my dreams." Liu Qingyan felt even more wronged when she said this. Grabbing Qi Shiqin's arm, he said: "I know that I am humble, and I don't pray to be married by you. As long as you are willing, you can put me in a small courtyard and come to see me a few times a month. It’s already very satisfying.”
The author has something to say: this chapter is roughly like this, the main changes are in the middle and back sections. I will look at the last part tomorrow, and I always feel a little awkward.However, if you modify it again, it will not affect the reading, so you don't need to re-read it.
