Reborn as the Savior of a Short-lived Father and Son
Chapter 160: Maybe Ling Chi
"The little ones don't dare. The little ones don't dare."
Li Qiulian was under house arrest, but this was obviously not the most painful thing for her. What made her suffer was the knife hanging over her head that refused to fall.
Does the Prime Minister know the truth? If not, what did he mean by what he just said?
If he knew, why didn't he explain it to me and kick me out of the Prime Minister's Mansion?
Li Qiulian controlled herself and endured. She didn't need to do anything. When the Prime Minister's wife heard the news that she was under house arrest, she would definitely help her.
She told herself that she just had to wait.
……
Mrs. Lin was determined to seek justice for her son, and with the support of this thought, her weak body seemed to be healed immediately.
But the injuries from the whipping were still enough to make her suffer a skin attack.
The task of looking after Madam Lin was originally the responsibility of Jingzhao Yin, but when Shao Xingjian saw Jingzhao Yin's sweaty face, he mercifully took on the task himself.
If Mrs. Lin was being looked after by someone else, Gu Qinghe would have been a little worried, but since the person taking care of her was Shao Xingjian, Gu Qinghe felt relieved for some reason.
Shao Wei couldn't stay in Beijing for long, and always wanted to help her handle everything that could be handled.
But Gu Qinghe handled everything perfectly, and there was no mess that needed his help to deal with.
The only thing that could never make her feel at ease was the poor baby girl.
Gu Qinghe knew that a man who committed murder would be sentenced to death, and obviously no one in that family would want to take care of the baby girl.
Not only will they not take care of her, they may even regard her as a scourge, believing that her appearance has caused the family to break up and suffer misfortune.
These people are used to shirking responsibility. Even if everything is caused by greed, they will put the blame on a baby who knows nothing, as if in this way their own sins do not exist.
Shao Wei observed Gu Qinghe's expression and did not say anything.
When the two arrived at the house, things were obviously pretty much as Gu Qinghe had expected.
Except for the woman who knelt on the ground with the man that day and begged Gu Qinghe to help deliver the baby, everyone else regarded the baby girl as a jinx.
Especially the older woman, she blamed the baby girl for the fact that her son was thrown into prison and was about to be beheaded.
"This is the reincarnation of a jinx. This is really the reincarnation of a jinx. He killed his parents right after he was born and caused unrest in his family. What will happen to him when he grows up?"
The woman holding the baby girl is the wife of the old man’s eldest son. She originally did not know the truth of the matter and was kept in the dark. However, now that the man has been captured, she has heard the truth.
These past few days I have been feeling angry, scared and sad.
On the one hand, I felt sorry for what happened to my brother and sister and the poor child, on the other hand, I was angry at the behavior of this family, and I was afraid that one day in the future I would suffer the same fate.
But she was born to be gentle, and even though her heart was filled with rage, she still didn't dare to say anything.
Her husband leaned against the door frame and stared at the child gloomily. Finally, he made a decision. "I think we should just throw her into the well and let her drown. It would be useless to keep her around to cause trouble. "
"No," the old lady said first, "You are confused. We are in the middle of a storm right now. Don't you think our family has enough troubles? If someone drowned at any other time, no one would know. But now, so many eyes are staring at our family. If they ask about it later, how are you going to explain it?"
Seeing that her son was unhappy, she continued, "If we really want to drown her, we have to wait until the girl can move and walk by herself. Then we can push her into the well and just say that she fell in because she was naughty."
Gu Qinghe was furious. He picked up tiles from the roof and threw them at the old woman.
The tile hit the old woman's back, and she screamed in pain, "Who hit me?"
Shao Wei jumped down with Gu Qinghe. When the two came out, the old woman's face changed immediately when she saw Gu Qinghe. "Well, you dare to come here? If it weren't for you, my son wouldn't have to be beheaded now!"
"Beheading?" Gu Qinghe laughed sarcastically, "Your son's death in the eighteen levels of hell is a light punishment. Beheading is the least severe punishment for a beast like your son. Don't be too happy. It may not be beheading. It may be slow slicing."
The old woman rolled her eyes and almost fainted.
The old woman's son stopped his mother behind him and glared at the two of them, "What do you want to do?"
Gu Qinghe walked to the young woman and took the baby girl in his arms. He didn't bother to look at the family again and said to Shao Wei, "Let's go."
The man subconsciously tried to stop him, but Shao Wei kicked him a few steps away. The old woman screamed and hurried forward to protect her son. No one dared to step forward.
Gu Qinghe was in trouble again as she was leaving with the child in her arms.
Looking down at the child's little face, my heart felt even more bitter.
If Gu Qinghe had not been implicated, perhaps the child's mother would still be alive and well. With his mother protecting him, life would always be better.
She still remembered the gentle woman's eyes full of love when she looked at the child on the day of delivery.
My heart suddenly felt like it was blocked and twisted.
Gu Qinghe sighed and looked at Shao Wei, "What should I do?"
She was not afraid of raising another child, but firstly, she had no experience, and secondly, she had not even done half of what she wanted to do. If she didn't check it out, she might lose her life one day. She went here today and there tomorrow, and was busy all the time. It was really inconvenient to take the child with her.
Gu Qinghe was thinking of a solution when Shao Wei said, "Old Liu might be willing to take care of him."
Old Liu was the retired soldier where the two of them stayed for one night after rescuing Lu Zhiyao.
Gu Qinghe thought about it and it seemed that he indeed did not see their child that day.
"Sister-in-law is weak, and Lao Liu didn't plan to let her have children before they got married," Shao Wei scratched his head, "Why don't we go ask her?"
Thinking of Lao Liu's very gentle wife, Gu Qinghe was immediately delighted. If they were willing, it would be a really good home for the baby girl.
It can be seen that Lao Liu is a simple and honest man, and his wife is even more gentle. Their little home is very warm and cozy.
Living in such an environment should be very happy.
Gu Qinghe was a little impatient, so the two of them went to Lao Liu's house overnight.
The child was young and couldn't stand the bumps, so Shao Wei found a horse-drawn carriage, but the speed of the carriage was obviously much slower.
It was almost dawn when we arrived at Lao Liu's house.
Old Liu had raised a dog in his yard at some point, and it started barking when it heard the noise outside.
The baby girl in Gu Qinghe's arms also started crying loudly.
Old Liu was sleeping soundly with his wife in his arms. He couldn't wake up even if there was a thunder, and the noise outside didn't affect him at all.
Fortunately, his wife heard it and shook him a few times to wake him up. "Why does it sound like a child is crying?"
What child? Old Liu didn't even open his eyes. He said he didn't hear anything and buried his head in his wife's arms again.
