Enter the red building

Chapter [-] I have a question

Nanny Zhou looked at the newborn in her arms, Lin Daiyu who was lying on the bed and the other child who hadn't come out yet. There was no smile on her face. This is not a happy event, even if it is a boy. Baby, just said: "It's a young master! Congratulations, uncle, it's a young master!"

Xue Qiu didn't respond, just looked at Lin Daiyu, gently closed Lin Daiyu's eyes, and wiped the sweat off Lin Daiyu's face.

Huang Momo looked at the baby's lips turning purple, and her heart tightened. This is not a dead baby, why is there no cry, and asked anxiously: "Little master——what's wrong with the young master, why is there no cry?"

Nanny Zhou panicked all of a sudden, and quickly patted the baby's butt a few times, but she still didn't cry, and stammered, "Master! Master! Young Master, I'm afraid—I'm afraid"

As soon as Qian Que heard this, she ran outside, shouting, "Physician Liu! Physician Liu! Come and see the young master!"

The people waiting outside suddenly didn't hear Lin Daiyu's heart-piercing cry, and they all guessed the ending in their hearts.

Physician Liu heard someone calling him to go in, so he hurried there immediately.

Imperial Physician Liu took it from Nanny Zhou's arms, looked at it carefully, and said, "I'm afraid the amniotic fluid was inhaled during birth, this——this is difficult."

Everyone fell silent for a while, did the young master who was born by the grandma desperately go like this?Is it really a dead body and three lives?

Xue Qiu looked back at the baby in Liu Taiji's arms, rushed to Liu Taiyi's side, snatched the baby from Liu Taiyi's hand, put him gently on the bed, gently pried open the baby's mouth, The mouth keeps blowing.

Looking at the blood-stained baby boy in front of him, Xue Qiu suddenly burst into tears.Lin Daiyu died in front of him, Xue Qiu didn't cry, didn't shed tears, but now looking at this child who just came into the world without knowing his life or death, Xue Qiu cried.

This is her own child, Yu'er's child for herself.This is the child Yu'er risked her life to give birth to herself.

You can't die, absolutely can't die!

This short period of time seems to have passed through so many long years, everyone dared not make a sound, quietly watching Xue Qiu continue to do this incomprehensible thing.

......

"Crying! Crying! The young master is crying!" Seeing the baby finally crying, Qianque said joyfully while crying: "Grandma bless! Grandma bless!"

Everyone was overjoyed, luckily one survived!

The weak crying made Xue Qiu laugh, and Xue Qiu gently kissed the baby's forehead.

Nanny Zhou quickly took the baby, cleaned up the blood on the baby with hot water, and wrapped the young master in good clothes.

Seeing the baby's appearance, Imperial Physician Liu knew that it might be another sick one, and said, "Master Xue, I'm afraid this young master needs to be taken care of carefully, maybe he will—"

"Will he die young?" Xue Qiu walked to Lin Daiyu, looked at Lin Daiyu who seemed to be sleeping peacefully, and said solemnly, "No, he will grow up safely!"

What happened in Xue's family soon spread to other people's ears. They all knew that Xue Qiu's adopted sister died of dystocia and took away an unborn baby.

Naturally, the Jia family and mother also knew about this, and she fainted immediately after hearing about it. Two of them died, and the other one didn't know if she would survive. The blow was really too great.The rest of the Jia family also felt a little uncomfortable. After all, the Jia family was Lin Daiyu's maternal ancestral family, so how could they not care about this matter.Even Mrs. Wang didn't take pleasure in other people's misfortune when she found out about it. She kept silent and felt a little uncomfortable thinking about it.

But other people in the capital gave the rumors that Xue Qiu was killed with evil spirits, killed his parents, and now his wife and children.

Xue Qiu didn't know these things, he only had one image in his mind, the moment when Lin Daiyu finally died before his eyes.Xue Qiu, who was in a trance, would only show a smile when he saw the surviving child, and maybe only then was when Xue Qiu was awake.

Xue Qiu only knew to stay in the house all day and refused to come out. Xue Baoqin was very worried when she looked at it. She was afraid that Xue Qiu would really lose the will to live, so she could only send a maid to watch and tell herself if there was anything wrong.

Qian Que looked at Xue Qiu with stubble on his face, a few strands of white hair had been added to his temples, his expression was helpless and lonely, and he didn't know how to persuade him. Unable to cheer up, he said, "Master, the young master's name hasn't been taken yet. My aunt said that I can't do it on the third day, but I still want a name."

Xue Qiu turned his head to look at Qian Que, with a hoarse voice, he asked: "Did the big* grandma say what name she took?"

Qian Que replied: "Big*grandmother thought of several girls' names. Big*grandmother said that if it's a boy, I'll name it, if it's a girl, I'll follow her idea. Big*grandmother said, Grandpa, you won't object. "

Xue Qiu smiled, his eyes became brighter, and he asked softly, "What name did the big * grandma get?"

Xue Yan who was standing by the side smiled when Xue Qiu asked this question, and hurriedly replied: "Xue Ling, Xue Ru, Xue Yayin, the eldest grandma said that if she is a young lady, she will definitely teach her piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and— —”

Qianque pulled Xueyan's sleeve secretly, signaling to stop talking.

Xueyan also understood that her words would only make the old man feel even more sad, so she hurriedly asked: "Master, what is the name of the young master?"

Xue Qiu looked at the clothes that Lin Daiyu made for the child on the table, thinking about the scene of the day of delivery in his mind, and finally said: "Xue Wuyou!"

"Xue Wuyou?" Qian Que and Xue Yan whispered, and both understood the meaning of the name.Worry-free, I believe that the uncle hopes that the young master will be carefree all his life! .

Qian Que asked again: "Grandpa, my aunt has one more question, when does Grandpa plan to return to Jinling?"

"Jinling?" Xue Qiu muttered to himself, as if he was missing something, and said: "After July [-], go back to Jinling! You go tell Steward Wang and ask him to make arrangements, and you may never come back again!"

"Never come back again? When the filial piety period expires in three years, don't you still have to go back to Beijing to work?" Xueyan asked directly, puzzled.

Xue Qiu shook his head, and said in a sad tone: "I don't want to come back here again!"

Qian Que remained silent and didn't ask anything. This matter is not up to her to decide. Judging by the uncle's current appearance, she has already made up her mind. She just said, "Master, can there be any people left in this house?"

Xue Qiu nodded.

Xue Baoqin was naturally very surprised when he heard the news, rushed over and asked directly: "Brother, don't you plan to go back to the capital again?"

Xue Qiu looked at Xue Baoqin's stomach, and said with a smile: "Maybe! You and my nephew are both well, and I may come back to see you later."

Xue Baoqin said angrily: "Then you don't plan to become an official again?"

Xue Qiu approached Xue Baoqin and explained: "I have already told the emperor about this matter. Even if I become an official in the future, I will probably stay in Jinling as much as possible."

Xue Baoqin was a little aggrieved, so she was not the only one left in the capital, she lowered her head and asked, "Brother, do you want my sister to stay in the capital alone? What if my sister has something to do in the future?"

"Isn't there still a big aunt and her family in the capital? Don't worry, how can I ignore you, you are my own sister. Mei Xuan will treat you well." Xue Qiu comforted.

Xue Baoqin asked a little excitedly: "Why don't you go back to the capital and stay in Jinling?"

Xue Qiu looked at the flowers and plants in the courtyard outside, and said softly, as if he was talking to Xue Baoqin, but also as if he was talking to himself, "Just treat your brother as a coward! Brother Jingcheng can't stay anymore. For the sake of worry-free, brother will take care of you." living!"

Xue Baoqin didn't argue any more, she knew that her brother would never forget her sister-in-law, when her brother said that sentence: If you are not here, I will not be here, Xue Baoqin still remembers.

Xue Baoqin looked at Xue Qiu and asked, "Brother, you don't plan to marry again? Wuyou, he is still so young, and his mother is very important to him."

Xue Qiu turned around and smiled, "Don't worry, I will take good care of him! If necessary, I will find a mother who loves him."

Seeing Xue Qiu's bright eyes, Xue Baoqin realized that Xue Wuyou is Xue Qiu's everything now, Wuyou was born prematurely, and her body is weak, if something happens to Wuyou one day, I'm afraid——.The more Xue Baoqin thought about it, the more frightened she became, and immediately said: "Brother, you have to be well. Not just for worry-free, but also for——for sister-in-law to live well. Sister-in-law must hope that you can be well."

Xue Qiu nodded, "Don't worry!"

Now Lin Daiyu's funeral is being taken care of by Mei Xuan, and those who came to Xue's house to pay homage have not seen Xue Qiu, so they can't guess that it must be because the loss of his wife is too sad to come out.Back then Xue Qiu didn't care about his own future and wanted to marry his adopted sister, but now that this happened, he must have been hurt by love.

At this time, it was rumored that Xue Qiu was an infatuated person.

The Beijing Palace naturally also knew about this matter. When Lin Daiyu passed away, Shui Linglong didn't know how she felt. He was already like that when Mrs. Xue died at the beginning, and now he should be like that when something like this happens. How painful?

Qiu Fan looked at Shui Linglong who had been absent-minded since she knew what had happened to Xue's family, and sighed, why bother, Xue Qiu obviously didn't have a princess in her heart, why did the princess keep thinking about Xue Qiu.

Qiu Shan doesn't understand, so how does Shui Linglong understand.

Qiu Fan looked at Shui Linglong's moody look all the time, and was hesitating in his heart whether to tell Shui Linglong about Xue Qiu's departure from Beijing today. Take the coffins of Mrs. Xue and Grandma Xue back to Jinling for burial."

Shui Linglong was startled, stood up and asked, "When? When will they leave Beijing?"

Seeing Shui Linglong's anxious look, Qiu Fan couldn't help but feel sorry for her, and said, "I'm afraid we are already on the way by now!"

Shui Linglong immediately said: "Go and ask Uncle Tian to get the horse ready, I'm going to see him off!"

"Princess, if the prince finds out, I'm afraid—I'm afraid he will be angry!" Qiu Shan persuaded.

Shui Linglong didn't speak any more, she just rushed to the gate of the palace.Qiu Fan chased after her, shouting all the time, hoping that Shui Linglong could dispel this idea, but Shui Linglong had long since disappeared.

Mei Xuan took Xue Baoqin to bid farewell to Xue Qiu at the gate of Xue's house.Xue Qiu and his group were all in plain clothes, and there were two coffins of nanmu on the carriage behind them. This group was particularly conspicuous on the street.Xue Qiu didn't want to stay for a long time, and said to Mei Xuan: "Take good care of Bao Qin and my nephew, if they suffer any grievances, I will not let you go!"

Mei Xuan supported Xue Baoqin, nodded respectfully and said: "Don't worry, I will definitely treat Qin'er and the child in her belly well."

"Sister, take care! Write to brother if you have anything to do." Xue Qiu looked at Xue Baoqin and said.

With red eyes, Xue Baoqin nodded and said, "Brother—take care too!"

"Steward Wang, I'll leave this place to you!" Xue Qiu said, and got on his horse.Xue Wuyou was brought into the carriage by Nanny Li and Nanny Chen long ago, and Nanny Chen's family had already found them. They didn't want to leave Beijing at first, but Xue Qiu offered good conditions, so they agreed.

Seeing Xue Qiu and his party gradually go away, Xue Baoqin couldn't help leaning on Mei Xuan and weeping in a low voice, Mei Xuan comforted and said: "I will have a chance to take you back to Jinling in the future!"

Xue Baoqin choked with sobs and said, "My mother and I were happy when we came here, but now seeing my brother bring the remains of his mother and sister-in-law back to Jinling, I feel so uncomfortable!"

......

Xue Qiu seemed to hear someone calling his name, and when he looked back, he saw Shui Linglong in light purple riding a horse towards here.

Shui Linglong saw that Xue Qiu and his group stopped, the corner of her mouth raised, she rushed over and asked directly: "Xue Qiu, you——will you come back?"

Xue Qiu looked at the sweat on Shui Linglong's forehead, guessed that he might have come here on a horse, got off the horse and knelt down and said, "I've seen Princess Linglong!"

As soon as Xue Qiu knelt, the people behind him also knelt down, and even Nanny Li and Nanny Chen in the carriage quickly got out of the carriage and knelt down.

"What are you—what are you doing? Get up!" Seeing Xue Qiu kneeling in front of her, Shui Linglong dismounted and asked angrily.

Xue Qiu got up and said respectfully and distantly: "The princess is of great status."

Shui Linglong looked at Xue Qiu's indifferent look, felt aggrieved, and asked, "You—why did you treat me like this?"

Xue Qiu remained silent, bowing even lower.This attitude has already expressed Xue Qiu's meaning.Xue Qiu understood Shui Linglong's affection for him very early on, and now it seems that she is still the same, Xue Qiu sincerely feels sorry for Shui Linglong.

Shui Linglong looked at Xue Wuyou who was being held by Nanny Chen, walked over and asked, "This is Sister Lin's child, right? Can I have a look at him?"

Nanny Chen was at a loss, the person standing in front of her was the princess, this identity made Nanny Chen fearful, she looked at Xue Qiu and wanted to ask him what to do.

After seeing Xue Qiu nodding in agreement, he handed Xue Wuyou in his hand to Shui Linglong.Shui Linglong took it carefully, looking at the child in her arms, Shui Linglong frowned and asked, "Why does he look so thin? It looks like—"

Shui Linglong didn't say what happened next, Xue Qiu and others knew it.

Xue Qiu walked over and asked, "I don't know what's the matter with the princess? The officer has to rush back to Jinling by boat."

Shui Linglong asked: "His name is—"

"Wuyou, Xue Wuyou!" Xue Qiu replied respectfully.

"Worriless!" Shui Linglong murmured softly, looking at Xue Qiu with a pair of watery eyes, and asked softly, "Will you come back?"
