Reborn as the Savior of a Short-lived Father and Son

Ouyang Xia looked out the window, thinking of Xiaocheng who felt a little cramped standing in the general's mansion but still waited for news from Gu Qinghe every day. He also thought of the man who knelt on the ground and begged Gu Qinghe to help his wife give birth that day, and his eyes were cold.

Mingxuan and He Shumin were obviously also very angry about this man's behavior. "What a cruel beast! His wife had just given birth and risked her life to leave him a child. She never thought that this man would kill her for that little bit of money."

Gu Qinghe thought of the scene in the delivery room that day when the woman held her hand and begged her to cut open her belly and take the baby out. Her heart twisted slightly and she felt a little sorry for her.

How could she have imagined that she would risk her life to leave an offspring for her husband, and would rather die than save the child, but her husband would give up her life so easily.

Seeing her silence, He Shumin and Mingxuan looked at each other and asked, "Your Majesty, how do you plan to deal with Li Qiulian?"

"No punishment," Gu Qinghe smiled, "After all, there is no evidence that can directly point to her."

But that doesn’t matter, Gu Qinghe’s goal has been achieved.

When they returned to the General's Mansion, Luo Feng and Xiao Cheng were already waiting at the door. As soon as Luo Feng saw her, he rushed over and hugged her thighs with tears in his eyes, "Did they beat you?"

He had heard before that no one who went to prison would escape being beaten, so when Luo Feng heard that Gu Qinghe was arrested, his heart almost collapsed.

He was crying loudly. His father was not at home, and he had to protect Sister Gu for his father, so he went to find Huo Shibei. Huo Shibei told him that Gu Qinghe would not be beaten and asked him to wait patiently.

But Luo Feng was still worried, so he wiped his tears and went to find Shao Xingjian, whom he was usually a little afraid of.

Compared to the unreliable Huo Shibei, it was obvious that he trusted Shao Xingjian more. After Shao Xingjian told him the same words, Luo Feng felt a little more at ease this time.

But he was still sad that the person didn't come back. These days, he was often awakened by nightmares at night, crying and calling Gu Qinghe's name and his father's name.

In Luo Feng's heart, his father is an omnipotent hero. If he were still alive, he would definitely not let Sister Gu be captured.

The little guy couldn't eat or sleep well these past two days, and he was even thinner than Gu Qinghe.

If you don’t know, you might think he was the one locked up.

Gu Qinghe was so distressed that she saw Xiaocheng watching from afar and waved to him. Xiaocheng looked up at her with bright eyes like a cat.

She rubbed his head and asked, "Where's Arya? Why didn't you bring her?"

"Uncle Fu took her to the mountains to collect herbs. When I came out, they hadn't returned yet."

The day after Gu Qinghe went to jail, she asked Mingxuan to help her tell Uncle Fu not to worry and just take good care of the herbs she left in the yard.

I guess he couldn't sit still and there was nothing to do staying at home, so he just went to the mountains to help her collect herbs.

As for Arya, this little girl likes Uncle Forberg for some reason. Whenever she sees Uncle Forberg, she will follow him like a little tail.

Xiaocheng said that Uncle Fu looked very much like the neighbor uncle who had taken care of the brother and sister, but that uncle fell ill and died last year. Perhaps Erya mistook Uncle Fu for that neighbor uncle.

As the night deepened, after seeing Mingxuan and He Shumin off, Gu Qinghe lay on the bed for a long time.

I couldn’t sleep, so I just got up and wrote a letter to Shao Wei.

The letter asked about his mother's recent situation and whether there were any actions from the King of Wu. Unconsciously, he had written a whole piece of paper.

When I looked back, I realized that as I was writing, I began to tell him about what had happened in Beijing during these days.

But she didn't tell him what happened in the past two days.

Chizhou is so far away, there is no point in telling him. It will only make him worry and feel guilty for no reason.

Besides, the matter has been resolved now, so it doesn't matter whether to talk about it or not. If the two meet someday, they can talk about it in a sweet way, but now, there is really no need.

After writing the letter, Gu Qinghe specially drew a small crying face at the end.

Next to the crying face were a few small, corny words.

Coming back on it all again, Gu Qinghe was much more proactive and less shy when it came to relationships.

After finishing the letter, she still didn't feel sleepy, so she opened the door and planned to sit in the yard for a while.

When I looked up, I was caught off guard and saw someone sitting on the roof opposite.

Gu Qinghe walked over, Ouyang Xia looked down and waved the wine gourd in her hand towards her, "The moon is nice tonight, do you want to come up and have a drink?"

She nodded and clutched her cape, "You have to carry me up. I don't think I can do it on my own."

These words seemed to make Ouyang Xia laugh. She flew down and went up to the roof with Gu Qinghe in her arms.

Before Gu Qinghe could react, he was stepping on the rubble of the roof.

So I sincerely sighed, "It's amazing."

Ouyang Xia took out a wine gourd from somewhere and handed it to her, "Drink it. I'll take you down again after you get drunk."

Gu Qinghe seemed to be thinking about something. He took the wine gourd, sat down with her, and took a small sip.

This wine is really strong. This small sip burns my throat all the way to my stomach.

"Are you homesick?"

"No." Ouyang Xia lay down, his left leg idly resting on his right leg, his hands behind his back and placed under his head, squinting at the half-moon, "Su Ji is at home, there's nothing for me to worry about. When I'm not at home, they have more free time."

"Are you a little tired of taking Lan Yu around these days?"

When Ouyang Xia mentioned Lan Yu, a smile flashed in his eyes, "In fact, he is quite obedient and easy to coax. He is not annoying at all."

She didn't know what she was thinking about. Her eyes turned cold again and she took a sip of wine. "Tell me, that man was able to kneel on the ground and beg you to help his wife give birth, so why did he kill his wife with his own hands in the end?"

Gu Qinghe was also silent for a while.

Shao Xingjian's people have already found out the truth of the matter. On the day when Gu Qinghe helped the woman in labor, there was another woman giving birth on the street not far from them.

But the woman's child was born stillborn.

When Li Qiulian gave the man gold and asked him to take action against his wife and daughter, he was reluctant at first, but the gold was too much, and his brother and mother also advised him not to do so.

A little girl is of no use. With so much gold, he can marry any woman he wants.

Maybe he could use the money to find a good doctor, cure his hidden illness, and even have a son in the future.

He was tempted, but couldn't bear to harm his own daughter, fearing that this might be the only bloodline in his life. He didn't dare to take the risk, so after much thought he gave some silver to the family who gave birth to the stillborn baby, bought the dead baby, and hid his own daughter.
