The husband who forced her to marry her couldn't keep her warm, and she didn't want him to

Zheng Mudan looked at Qin Lang who was smiling in front of her, wondering why she had never thought that he had the potential to be a rogue.

Yes, ever since his third brother went to Sanjiang Fortress, he followed him, and they have been separated for eight years.

As time goes by, many people and many things have changed.

"Qin Lang, I haven't formally thanked you yet." Zheng Mudan picked up the tea on the tray and handed it to him personally.

There was a trace of doubt on Qin Lang's dark face. After taking the teacup, he drank it in two gulps like a cow drinking peony water.

"Cough...ha..." He was grimacing due to the burn and sat there smiling foolishly.

He no longer looked ferocious in front of others, which really did not match the flying fish uniform of the Jinyiwei he was wearing.

This scene made the two people recall many years ago, especially Qin Lang.

Today, Zheng Mudan was wearing a rose-red double-breasted feather gauze dress and a light-colored embroidered horse-faced skirt. After the divorce, the spirit of her youth had returned to her.

Qin Lang couldn't help but recall the scene when he first saw her.

At that time, he fell in the weeds by the roadside. When he thought he would not be able to pass this level, a pleasant and concerned voice sounded above his head.

Just like that, the eight-year-old boy was picked up by the twelve-year-old girl and brought back to the Zheng family.

He couldn't remember how many days he had been hungry. He hadn't had a full meal for a long time, so he ate like a wolf.

He insisted on surviving even when he was in dire straits, but now he has a stutter and almost choked himself to death.

Seeing that he was in a state of disarray, Zheng Mudan held the silk handkerchief in her hand, patted his back gently, and said in a gentle voice:

"How old are you? Aren't you afraid that those Jinyiwei under your command will laugh at you?"

Qin Lang stiffened his neck, his face red and his neck thick, "If they dare, I will beat them so hard that their parents won't recognize them!"

After saying that, I realized that I was too rude, and I sat there and began to reflect on myself. Then I heard her ask that familiar question again:

"After all these years, you still can't remember where your family is?"

Qin Lang lowered his eyes and looked at the teacup in his hand. How could he forget!

It was just that he hated that family so much that he lied and said he couldn't remember where his home was and had no idea who was in the home.

It was she who gave Qin Lang this name.

Because it was a gloomy day when he was picked up, he looked extremely miserable and pitiful.

A sunny day will definitely be a sunny day, she said, so let's call him Qin Lang.

I hope he will be a happy and upright person in the future.

He was about to say something when he heard footsteps in the courtyard and a familiar voice. He immediately stopped talking and stood up nervously.

"Mother..."

Before Gu Jinchu stepped into the main room, her voice came in first.

Just like when I was a child and came back from my grandmother’s house in Baodi, I always wanted to get my mother’s attention.

"Mother, I'm back!"

When Gu Jinchu walked into the main room, the first thing he saw was Qin Lang standing there like a door god, and then his mother came out from behind him.

"Chu Jie'er, it's so sunny outside, you must be too hot, right? Can you ask Mama Tong to have someone make you an ice bowl to drink?" Zheng looked at her daughter with a smile on her face and stood beside her, fanning her slowly with a round fan in her hand.

Qin Lang raised his eyes to look at Gu Jinchu and her daughter, and saw the smile on Zheng Mudan's face. It was not as polite and courteous as before, but sincere and loving.

Feeling a little lost, he put the cup in his hand on the high table beside him.

Gu Jinchu smiled and told his mother that he was not tired, then looked at Qin Lang, bowed and said, "Uncle Qin."

Qin Lang suddenly felt that the air he breathed became smoother, and he looked at Gu Jinchu with his eyes opened as wide as possible unconsciously.

Zheng looked at their childish appearance and said with a smile: "I didn't expect that after not seeing each other for so many years, your relationship has not become unfamiliar."

Qin Lang's smile deepened, making his teeth look very white. His complaints were not convincing at all, "Chu Jie'er bullied me a lot when she was young."

There was nothing false in what he said, it's just that the girl is older now and it's not convenient for him to say it.

As the granddaughter that the old lady cherished and her only daughter, he really worked like a slave for Gu Jinchu.

He had caused a lot of trouble and was often scolded for it.

Just hearing you call me 'Uncle Qin' made everything worth it.

Gu Jinchu owed Qin Lang the name "Uncle Qin".

In his previous life, he gave up his bright future and sacrificed his life to avenge his mother.

Now that I think about it, what else is there that I don’t understand?

He must have affection for his mother.

Zheng ordered the servants to make an ice bowl for Chu Jie'er, and reminded them to put her daughter's favorite fruits in it. She also repeatedly reminded Tong's mother to remember to put more milk and less ice.

Gu Jinchu saw her mother talking to Tong's mother. She stood in front of Qin Lang and squinted her eyes and said to him:

"Qin Lang, my mother has opened a female household. She will only recruit sons-in-law in the future, not marry anyone off!"

Qin Lang felt that ever since Gu Jinchu came in, his eyes had been tired and staring like copper bells.

Chu Jie'er has grown up. Not only has she learned some of the lady's arrogance, but she has also become more vicious.

"Sister Chu, when did you find out?" Qin Lang lowered his voice and asked Gu Jinchu cautiously and cautiously.

Gu Jinchu sighed inwardly, of course it was the previous life.

If one simply wanted to repay the life-saving favor, why would he give up everything he had, even risking his own life?

How could he have the determination to commit suicide in front of his mother's grave?

Gu Jinchu blinked, trying to force back the heat in his eyes, and lowered his eyes to stare at the ground.

"Your expression is all written on your face. Mother treats you like a younger brother, so she doesn't think about it that way."

After Qin Lang heard her words, his shoulders drooped suddenly. Of course he knew!

If Mudan can live a happy life, he is willing to stand in his position and protect her silently.

Now that she's divorced, it means he still has a chance.

But, just like Chu Jieer said.

Mudan picked him up from outside. Since she was the youngest child in the family, she had always treated him as her younger brother for all these years.

Today he came to visit her in person, and she was still asking him why he hadn't started a family yet despite his age.

She never considered him as a man worth marrying.

Zheng Mudan made the arrangements and saw her daughter and Qin Lang whispering to each other. She smiled and asked, "What are you talking about?"

Qin Lang's back stiffened instantly and he stammered, unable to explain himself.

Gu Jinchu was speechless when he saw his appearance.

He is no longer the majestic and ferocious commander of the Jinyiwei.

To his relief, she said, "Mother, Uncle Qin said he still feels bad about the fact that his daughter fed his grilled lamb chops to the dog when she was six years old."

Zheng Mudan covered her mouth and laughed out loud, leaving Qin Lang stunned for a moment.

"I told you that you are all children but you still refuse to admit it. I will ask the kitchen to grill lamb chops for you guys later. You can all have enough to eat today!"

After saying that, she did not forget to correct Gu Jinchu's way of addressing Qin Lang, "When Chu Jieer was little, didn't she follow her cousins ​​and call Qin Lang uncle? Why are you calling him uncle today?"
