embarrassment for man and wife
Chapter 56
The old matriarch pulled Zhuohua and entered the small hall of the water courtyard while talking. The old matriarch waved them to find a place to sit down, while he pulled Zhuohua to sit on the couch together.
While they were still talking, servants came in outside the door and spontaneously brought them water and tea.
The topic between the old matriarch and Zhuo Hua has always revolved around Xie Junnan's childhood, which made Zhuo Hua very suspicious. The old matriarch said that the person who caused the storm in the capital and almost became a concubine would be sitting next to him. This person, no matter how you look at it, Xie Junnan doesn't look like a brother... Zhuo Hua rolled his eyes, and thought about the scene of Xie Junnan being subdued...
Zhuo Hua shuddered, unable to think.
"What's wrong?" The old lady looked at Zhuohua with concern, "But what's wrong?".
Zhuo Hua lightly coughed: "Nothing".
The old lady nodded: "You child, you are too thin, you should make up more."
Mrs. Xie nodded at the side, and said: "I'll watch it for a while, and I'll have someone bring Xie supplements to him. Take some before going to bed at night, the effect is the best."
Listening to the game, Zhuo Hua was embarrassed: "Old Madam, this is too expensive, how can I cause you such trouble, there is no need for this...".
"No trouble, no trouble." The old lady was still petty: "You child, why are you being polite to me?"
Zhuo Hua felt his scalp go numb.
The old matriarch didn't know what she thought of, and suddenly said: "This brother, although he seems to be fine on weekdays, his body is not very good, and he must take good care of it. Otherwise, it is easy to make mistakes when you are pregnant."
The topic suddenly came up to this point. Although Zhuohua was a little inexplicable, but this remark seemed to hit a certain nerve in him, making him suddenly think of the last moment of his life in his previous life...
"This is my brother's life." Zhuo Hua sighed lowly, muttering: "Brother's life is worthless in the first place, so what if I get pregnant...".
"Nonsense!" The old lady immediately scolded: "Who said that brother's life is not fate? You can't talk nonsense in the future, no one's life in this world is not life, especially brother, brother himself is endless Now that you have conceived, you have to take better care of it, how can it be child's play?".
These words were like a mallet, hammered hard in Zhuohua's heart, just as he raised his eyes to look at the old matriarch, Mrs. Xie also said from the side: "Our Xie family is not the kind of unreasonable people , even if this brother is conceived, it is his own destiny, let alone a brother who is pregnant with an heir."
Zhuo Hua looked towards Mrs. Xie, and saw that Mrs. Xie's eyes were also obviously stern, as if she was dissatisfied with her words just now, Zhuo Hua's heart suddenly jumped, and she secretly guessed that Mrs. Xie did it to conform to what the old lady said. That said, if you really don't like yourself...
Feeling tense in his heart, Zhuo Hua suddenly said: "I... have seen..." before. .
The old lady, Mrs. Xie, and Mrs. Xie Chen all stared at Zhuohua, fearing that Zhuohua would say something that they would not like to hear, Zhuohua secretly tightened his palms, but what he was about to say suddenly seemed a little bit hesitate.
The old matriarch took his hand and found that his palm was covered with cold sweat, so she couldn't help but frowned slightly, and coaxed him in a soft voice: "What have you seen? Take your time, don't be afraid, there is a grandma here." ".
Zhuo Hua pursed his lips, and was about to speak, but Xie Junnan suddenly said: "Grandma, grandma, mother, Zhuo Hua used to have a friend who was also a brother, but that person was tricked into bringing him to the capital to marry him. In the end, when she was just pregnant, she was... beaten to death by her husband's family... ".
It is one dead body and two lives.
The three of them were shocked together, as if they did not expect such a situation, the old lady even exclaimed: "It's a crime, it's really a crime."
Xie Chen also let out a long sigh: "No wonder, you just said such things...".
Mrs. Xie frowned: "It's true that there are not many backyards in the houses of this big family that are clean, but something so pickled and dirty is really...".
For example, Mrs. Xie, no matter how powerful she is, she has never easily killed anyone. Even the bastards of the Xie family, as long as they keep themselves safe, Mrs. Xie will not easily drive them to a dead end, so I listened to Xie Junnan's words at this moment , I just feel disgusted in my heart.
The old matriarch pondered for a moment, then saw that Zhuohua's face was not right, she coughed lightly, and changed the subject: "By the way, look at us, we just chatted with you as soon as we came here, how did you rest here last night? Are you still used to it?"
Of course, Zhuohua couldn't tell the truth what he said to Xie Junnan, so he hurriedly said: "Thank you, Mrs. Madam, for your concern, everything is fine here."
"That's good, that's good..." The old matriarch thought for a while, and then said: "You just came to the capital not long ago, you still have to take good care of it, eat and use whatever you want, just let Shiro do it for you, Don't embarrass yourself."
"Don't be so troublesome...".
"What you want is here." The old lady pretended to be angry: "You are not allowed to say such unreasonable words anymore, or I will be angry."
The Chinese language is blocked.
The old lady sighed: "Okay, after sitting here for a while, we should go too, just take a good rest."
"I'll see you off." Zhuo Hua hurriedly got up.
Xie Chen held him down: "You don't have to send it off, you should just rest well, your body has just passed the first month, luckily you are fine all the way here, otherwise, we have to peel off Shiro's skin."
What is just the first month?
Zhuo Hua was confused: "Thank you...".
"Mother, don't worry." Xie Junnan interrupted Zhuohua suddenly: "I will take good care of him, he just needs to rest here, I'll take you there."
"No need." The old lady stood by the door: "You'd better stay with their father and son."
what's the situation! ?
What father and son?
The old lady continued to yell at Zhuohua: "Thanks to his strong body, he was safe and sound all the way with you. If it were someone else, something might have happened a long time ago. Let Zhou Kang come over later to give him a pulse. You Also stay here well, we will call you if something happens."
Xie Junnan smiled wryly: "Yes".
Mrs. Xie negotiated to help the old matriarch, and the old matriarch turned to Mrs. Xie and said: "Get ready, just pick the nearest good time, and let's do this marriage."
Xie Chen hesitated: "Shouldn't we wait any longer?".
"What are you waiting for?" The voice of the old lady became farther and farther away: "We can wait, can the child wait? Just do as I say...".
Zhuohua was dizzy, and hearing their voices go away, he squinted his eyes and looked at Xie Junnan, gritted his teeth: "What the hell is going on!!!".
The conversation with the old matriarch and others today always made Zhuohua feel a little irrelevant, and he was confused throughout the whole process, but the last few words of the old matriarch and others when they were parting finally let Zhuohua know Where is the problem!
The old lady and others thought he was pregnant with Xie Junnan's child! ! !
Fucking stuff!
His face darkened, Zhuohua glared at Xie Junnan angrily.
Xie Junnan coughed lightly, "If I didn't say that, I don't care about grandma's place, the key is that my grandma's place is not easy to get through."
Zhuohua still gritted his teeth: "Then! Shut up! Me! What! What! What?!".
Xie Junnan asked unexpectedly: "Didn't you already promise to help me?".
Zhuohua was confused again: "When did I promise to help you?".
"Just yesterday, when we just arrived outside the gate of the mansion." Xie Junnan was also surprised, and said with a little grievance: "Didn't you ask me at that time, my dignified young master of the Shangshu Mansion, if I really just found a country boy As a wife, won't I be kicked out or even severed by your parents?".
The veins on the side of Zhuohua's forehead twitched suddenly: "So?".
"I thought you agreed to help me, that's why I asked this question."
Zhuo Hua narrowed his eyes: "So after we left yesterday, did you talk nonsense in front of them?".
Xie Junnan coughed lightly: "I just added a little oil and vinegar to the process of our acquaintance."
Zhuo Hua nodded slightly.
This so-called little bit means that Zhuohua has become an unmarried and pregnant brother!
It's really lucky that I'm not a woman, otherwise I would have been sunk, okay?
The more he thought about Zhuohua, the angrier he became. He was so angry that he rolled up his sleeves and rushed towards Xie Junnan. When he was overwhelmed, he greeted Xie Junnan with fists!
"Why don't you discuss this kind of important matter with me in advance, and just run away and talk nonsense! The old lady will send someone over to check my pulse, and when the time comes, how do you want me to face the old lady? How to talk to them Confess!" So the hole that Xie Junnan dug for himself is not ordinary big but huge! ! !The most important thing is that Zhuohua himself was kept in the dark the whole time, he couldn't help admiring himself, under such irrelevant conversations, he could still have a happy chat with the old lady and the others!
Xie Junnan knew he was in the wrong, he was crushed to the ground by Zhuohua, and he didn't dare to resist and struggle, he just covered his face with both hands: "It's easy to reveal the truth if you talk too much about this kind of thing, it's the easiest to win people's trust if you point it out, besides, you won't be able to do it after a while." Don't worry about Zhou Kang coming to check your pulse, I will arrange it when the time comes, and I will definitely not let you reveal your secrets in front of everyone."
Zhuohua was still very angry, he raised his fist, and greeted Xie Junnan vigorously, but just after a few rounds of beatings, Hong'er stretched out his head timidly, staring at the two of them with blinking eyes look!
Zhuohua's movements froze, and he quickly withdrew his hands, but looked down... Xie Junnan was lying on the ground at the moment, but he was riding on him, Zhuohua's face turned red, and he hurriedly got up and stood up.
Xie Junnan realized you, with a faint smile in his eyes, he covered his mouth and coughed lightly, and asked, "Hong'er. What are you doing hiding there?".
Hong'er blinked, and said honestly, "Third Brother and Jun Nan got into a fight, so I dare not go out."
"We didn't fight." Xie Junnan said seriously: "We are playing wrestling."
"Oh..." Hong'er responded, then turned her head to look at Zhuo Hua: "Third brother, you...do you really have a baby?".
Zhuohua turned his head suddenly, with an angry expression on his face, his eyes spewing fire, and abruptly scared Hong'er back to hide.
Xie Junnan coughed lightly: "You scared Hong'er."
Zhuo Hua gritted his teeth: "Who did it?".
Xie Junnan nodded honestly: "I did it, it's my fault, who made me think wrong at the time, that's why..." His eyes changed, and he looked at Zhuohua with a little pleading, seeing that Zhuohua was still the same. Unable to dissipate his anger, Xie Junnan let out a long sigh: "I'm to blame for this matter. I made a mistake at the beginning, thinking that Zhuohua was willing to help me once. Since Zhuohua didn't want to, then I'll go and tell my grandma the truth."
Zhuohua still turned his back to him and ignored him.
Xie Junnan turned around and walked outside: "It doesn't matter how grandma punishes me after I explain the truth to grandma, but... thinking about the marriage that uncle arranged for me before, it seems that I can only accept it... "At this point, Xie Junnan laughed lightly, the bitterness and desolation in that laughter sounded so helpless.
When Zhuo Hua turned his head angrily, Xie Junnan had already walked out of the door.
Hong'er hid behind the pillar and poked her head out after a while: "...Third Brother?".
"What for?" Zhuo Hua responded angrily.
Hong'er swallowed her saliva, and said cautiously: "I think, brother Junnan is in trouble, third brother, you should help him...".
Zhuo Hua frowned, turned around and looked at Hong'er.
Hong'er shrank behind the pillar and said, "Brother Junnan has helped us so much, but he has never asked us anything. You see, he helped the village solve the problem of the water source, and he also helped the second brother reverse the case. He also took us to the capital to seek refuge, helped me find a school, helped us find a house, and taught me to read. Brother Junnan is really kind. Brother, if you don't help Brother Junnan this time, do you really have the heart to watch Brother Junnan's future life be ruined like this?".
Zhuohua frowned even tighter: "What do you know?".
"Of course I understand." Hong'er said slowly, "If the third brother doesn't help Brother Junnan, then Brother Junnan will have to marry someone he doesn't like in the future, and he will have to live his whole life. How pitiful, let alone , if it wasn't for third brother, you would have made brother Junnan wrong, thinking you were going to help him, he wouldn't dare to do such a thing, would he?"
So... After all, this is so wrong that I have become myself?
Having said that, Hong'er shut up and stopped talking, only opened a pair of watery eyes, staring at Zhuohua, her lips pursed slightly, as if she was silently accusing Zhuohua of not repaying her kindness The reason is the same!
Zhuohua had a headache, he patted his head irritably, and finally ran out after Xie Junnan as if he was going all out.
So, the most annoying thing in this world is debt of favor!
It's not over yet!
Although angry, Zhuo Hua also felt a little guilty when he thought of what Hong Er said, not to mention anything else, he only said that Xie Junnan not only helped Ziqing overturn the case, but also saved himself from Lian Ying, both of which If you add it together, you have to pay it back, but... Xie Junnan's footsteps are too fast, and he disappeared after only a while.
Zhuohua panicked a little, stopped a servant halfway, asked where the old matriarch's yard was, and ran over in a hurry.
In the Luoxia Garden, the old matriarch was sitting on top, and Xie Junnan was kneeling in the middle. I don't know what he said, which made the old matriarch's face a bit gloomy, and he didn't even ask him to get up.
Madam Wu, who was serving the old matriarch, opened the door curtain, lowered her eyes and came in, then whispered next to the old matriarch: "Madam, the young master from the water courtyard is here. He looks very anxious, as if he has something to do."
The old lady was obviously taken aback, and put down the teacup quickly: "Then let him in quickly, but he will be tired by letting him outside."
Mother Wu should be, she turned around and went out again.
When Zhuo Hua came in with Nanny Wu, he saw Xie Junnan kneeling on the ground with his head bowed, and his heart skipped a beat. Could it be that Xie Junnan spoke so quickly and said everything?
Thinking of this, Zhuo Hua's heart suddenly tensed up even more. If Xie Junnan had already said that he was late, then what's the point of standing here at this moment?
Zhuohua's mind was in a mess, and he couldn't figure it out for a while. He saw Xie Junnan kneeling on the ground, rolled his eyes, and simply walked over, and knelt on the ground with Xie Junnan.
"What is this for?" The old lady was startled and hurriedly stretched out her hand to pull Zhuohua.
Xie Junnan also accidentally went to see Zhuohua.
Zhuohua's heart was beating like a drum, and his breathing was a little short. At this moment, he knelt down in front of the old matriarch. Because of nervousness, the thin sweat stains on his forehead were gathering more and more. Zhuohua didn't know Xie Junnan's last wry smile when he left. What happened to me, I broke away from the old matriarch's hand, and reached out to grab Xie Junnan's hand hanging by his side.
Xie Junnan's eyes were a little surprised, he only looked at Zhuohua for a moment.
Zhuohua was a little flustered, he took a deep breath, and tried to calm himself down: "Old Madam... Thank you..." The three words Mr. Xie almost blurted out, but thinking of the current stage, Zhuohua could only say lamely Let yourself change your words: "What Shiro told you just now is not true, it's just because I got into a quarrel with him just now, and he was angry with me, that's why he said those nonsense, don't take it to your heart, Mrs. yes".
Xie Junnan listened, his heart tensed, and his subordinates immediately grabbed Zhuohua's hand forcefully.
The old matriarch looked at the hands they held tightly, sighed softly, and hurriedly reached out to pull Zhuohua, but only blamed Xie Junnan: "It's a good thing that it's all nonsense, just talk about it here, if He didn't know how to measure, and he also told his grandmother to tell him, I think his head was probably kicked by a donkey."
Zhuo Hua's heart skipped a beat.
So has Xie Junnan really told the truth?
The old lady turned her head to look at Zhuohua again, saw that Zhuohua's expression was not right, and her head was full of sweat, so she said to Madam Wu worriedly: "Go and call Zhou Kang here, and feel Zhuohua's pulse. The child's complexion is very ugly, probably because he was pissed off by this bastard before."
Mother Wu should be, she turned around and went out to order her servants.
After Wu mama left, the old matriarch came out with a handkerchief, lovingly wiped the cold sweat off Zhuohua's brow, and said: "This bastard is used to being wild outside, and he has become more and more unruly, so it's hard for you Being angry with him, he ran over to intercede for him regardless of his body."
Zhuo Hua could only continue to speak against his conscience: "Si Lang... is actually very good, really, he is open and upright, and he takes care of me a lot. In fact, I owe him the most, but... if I and him were not Because of the different identities, I didn't get into a quarrel just now, and I was so angry that he came here to talk nonsense."
The old lady frowned slightly: "Are those words that Shiro said just now really nonsense? Are those just angry words?".
Zhuohua nodded: "He was just talking nonsense when I was angry with him, he can't take it seriously..." Pursing his lips, Zhuohua, in order to win the trust of the old matriarch, said as if to go out: "Actually, it doesn't matter if he is Potian Rich or noble, or just a poor scholar, or just a countryman, as long as he treats me well, I am willing to follow him. Money in this world is something outside of the body. How can it be compared to holding the hand of the son and growing old with the son?".
"Hold your hand and grow old with you..." The old lady murmured these words, as if remembering something, her eyes suddenly became warm, and her smile increased a lot: "That's good, that's good Ah, money and wealth are all external things, if you don’t bring them with you when you die, no matter how much money you have, it’s really nothing compared to holding your hand and growing old with you.”
Xie Junnan knelt on the ground. Although he lowered his head, the corners of his lips pursed slightly, and seemed to be in an imperceptible arc.
The old lady gave a long sigh, and finally said, "What are you doing kneeling? Get up."
"Yes".
Hearing this, Xie Junnan got up, and when he got up, he looked straight at Zhuohua with his eyes, the tenderness in his eyes seemed to have been soaked in water, or filled with honey, very greasy.
Zhuohua thought of the crisis that had just been resolved, so he looked at Xie Junnan cooperatively.
Seeing the two of them like this, the old lady smiled even more intensely in her eyes, but her words left Zhuohua stunned.
She said: "Just now I asked Shiro to come here, and I was discussing with Shiro about your marriage. Originally, I wanted Shiro to take advantage of this incident to invite his third grandfather over, but Shiro refused no matter what. , No, just fight with me, this bastard also said that if he has to ask his third grandfather, he would rather not have this marriage, tell me, is he angry?".
So... Xie Junnan knelt here, completely different from what Zhuohua thought! ! !
Isn't what I said just now a big joke! ?
Xie Junnan glanced at Zhuohua, as if he knew what Zhuohua was thinking at the moment, he also looked solemn, but compared to the previous tough spoken words, he has softened a lot at this moment: "Grandma, it's not that I'm stubborn but... oh ... What kind of virtue is the great grandma and the third grandpa? , then what should I do if I hurt Zhuo Hua?"
"Your third grandfather has been kicked out for so many years, don't you really want to give him a chance?" The old matriarch also frowned.
Zhuo Hua saw that the voices of the two of them suddenly became serious, and he couldn't help being suspicious: "This third grandpa is...?" What's going on?
Xie Junnan frowned, and was about to speak, but the old matriarch sighed: "You should think about this matter carefully, you have not yet set a specific date, but today I will put the words here, If your third grandfather and the others come by then, he still doesn't know what to do, I have my own family rules to punish him, by the way." The old matriarch suddenly changed the subject: "Why did you and Zhuohua have an argument just now?".
Xie Junnan was slightly stunned, as if he didn't realize it, the old matriarch's thinking would jump so fast, he looked at Zhuohua, and was thinking about how to round up the words, when Zhuohua suddenly said: "Yeah. It's not a big deal, it's just that I was greedy and wanted to eat sour fruit before, but Shiro didn't allow it, he just said that too much sour fruit food is not easy to digest, and he forced me to eat that root soup, I don't want to, so I tripped over him, he He also said that I am so ignorant, and later I want to ask the old lady to discipline me, so I was angry with him and said harsh words... ".
Xie Junnan was listening, his brows twitched suddenly, especially... when Zhuohua said this, and he looked a little aggrieved, he felt his brows twitched even more.
As expected, the old lady turned her head and scolded him: "You are such a big brother, why are you still messing around like this? You just give him what Zhuohua wants to eat, how can you force him to eat something he doesn't like? Thanks to Zhuohua This child is sensible, otherwise others would think that our Xie family is going to bully a child like him!".
Xie Junnan couldn't argue, so he could only admit: "Grandma taught me well."
The old lady continued to teach him: "Zhuo Hua is pregnant now, has strange tastes and a strange temper, it's normal, you should let him in more, besides, he likes to eat sour food now, that's normal, how can you still Can it be allowed?".
Xie Junnan hurriedly begged for mercy: "I see, I'll send someone to get him some more sour fruits right away, and he can eat whatever he likes."
The old lady nodded in satisfaction.
Outside the door, Nanny Wu raised the curtain at the moment, and behind him was a man in his thirties. The man carried a medicine box on his back, and he looked upright. After entering the door, Zhou Kang stepped forward and saluted the old matriarch. The old matriarch waved his hand and asked him to feel Zhuohua's pulse.
Zhuo Hua was a little panicked at first, but when he raised his eyes and saw Xie Junnan standing aside and nodding secretly towards him, he let out a low breath and stretched out his wrist.
When taking the pulse, the room was so quiet that a needle could be heard, Zhou Kang touched Zhuohua's wrist, his originally relaxed brows were slightly furrowed, his appearance immediately made the old lady's heart suspend.
After a while, Zhou Kangcai said: "Little master's health is fine, but the pulse condition is a bit weak, presumably it is because of being too tired before, so I just need to take care of it, and the little master seems to have an old disease, but it has been a long time. Not too short."
Zhuo Hua nodded: "It's a stomachache, I made it myself when I was a child, but I take medicine on weekdays, so it won't happen."
The old lady frowned: "Can this be cured?".
Zhou Kang pondered for a while, and said: "The radical cure can be cured, but it is a little troublesome, but don't worry, I will do my best."
The old lady nodded, and asked again: "By the way, does his stomach ache affect his current body?".
"Naturally..." No effect.
Zhou Kang almost blurted out, but he instantly remembered Zhuohua's current "pulse condition", and after a pause, he changed his words: "Of course there is some influence, after all, the little master is pregnant now, so I can't get angry, if the stomachache occurs , I’m afraid it’s not very good for the child in the womb.”
This is clearly what Xie Junnan said, but it somehow makes Xie Junnan feel like he is being attacked...
Sure enough, the next moment he received the old lady's reproachful gaze, and... Zhuohua's gloating gaze.
Does this count as throwing stones at your feet?
Xie Junnan wasn't sure, but he also made himself laugh and cry.
Zhou Kang's words "confirmed" Zhuohua's current physical condition. Although not many people in Xie's family knew about it, they couldn't stand an impenetrable wall, not to mention that Zhuohua was pregnant, Mrs. Xie told her personally Let Dafang know.
Xie Xun frowned slightly when he heard the news that Mrs. Xie Wu got from Mrs. Xie, but he didn't say anything, but this Xie Wu frowned: "Master, look, this Shiro is planning a good marriage. No, you have to be with that country boy of unknown origin, but the old lady, the old lady, and the old man all agreed to this matter, and the news of this marriage will be spread in the future, and our Xie family...how can we afford to lose this person?".
"So what if I can't afford to lose it?" Xie Xun frowned: "Don't say that Li Zhuohua is pregnant now, because he saved Shiro's life before, if Shiro insists, even if his parents don't agree, so what? This marriage As long as Grandma agrees, who would dare to criticize her?"
"But……".
"Okay." Xie Xun interrupted Xie Wu: "Instead of thinking wildly, it's better to be like a mother and follow Grandma's thoughts. I know that the Jiang family girl is your sister's daughter. Even if she likes Shiro, But now I can't help her with this matter, and by the way, I would like to remind you that Li Zhuohua is now my grandma's rebel, you'd better restrain yourself and don't cause trouble."
These words sounded extremely uncomfortable, Xie Wushi wanted to refute a few words, but Xie Xun changed his clothes, opened the door and went out without giving her a chance to speak at all.
Xie Wushi was so angry that he could only adjust his mood secretly, then put on a smiling face and went to the second bedroom's yard to inquire about the news.
****************************************
When Zhuohua and Xie Junnan left the old lady's courtyard, Xie Junnan still held his hand tightly. Zhuohua looked embarrassed, and tried to break free several times but failed. Instead, he had to say Xie Junnan: "acting Do a full set."
Zhuohua couldn't say no to him, so he followed him.
The two returned to the water courtyard, and Zhuohua finally broke free, but unexpectedly, when he turned around, he saw Ziqing sitting in the hall, staring at them with a gloomy expression.
Zhuohua's heart skipped a beat, and then he remembered belatedly... He forgot that he still has a second brother who needs to be explained to him.
Hong'er was sitting at the table, holding a teacup in his hand, seeing that Zhuo Hua and Xie Junnan seemed to be frozen by the door, he kindly reminded them: "I have already told the second brother what happened just now, the second brother Brother now knows that the third brother has a baby."
Zhuo Hua's knees softened and he almost knelt down.
Are you sure this brother isn't adding fuel to the fire?
Looking at Ziqing again in a blink of an eye, his face was as black as a lump of carbon!
"Second brother, listen to my explanation..." Zhuo Hua hurried into the room, and briefly explained the matter aside, Ziqing still frowned after hearing this.
Xie Junnan also bowed to the side: "It was my helpless move to make such a bad move, and I hope Ziqing will forgive me."
Ziqing let out a low breath, and after a while he asked, "Can you really erase the record of marrying Zhuohua from the official media?".
"I promise, it will be possible."
Ziqing still frowned, but said: "In this case, let me keep the wife release letter and agreement."
Xie Junnan was slightly taken aback, but it didn't show on his face.
Ziqing said solemnly: "You have been kind to our brothers many times, and Zhuohua should help you with this busyness, but it may change in the future. It is more appropriate to leave the wife's letter and agreement to me for safekeeping."
Zhuo Hua nodded along, "I think what the second brother said makes sense." Then, he also frowned and stared at Xie Junnan.
Xie Junnan glanced at him, and found that the three brothers were staring at him with the same gaze. At that moment, Xie Junnan sighed lightly, and could only resign himself to finding a pen and paper, and laid it on the table to write down the wife release letter and the agreement. After branding it with his own seal, he handed the item to Ziqing with both hands.
Ziqing held it in his hand and turned it over and over again. He didn't know what he was thinking of, and suddenly said: "You used the matter of Zhuohua's pregnancy to deceive the old lady and the others like this, but have you thought about how this matter will be resolved later? ?”.
Zhuo Hua was obviously taken aback, he had been impulsive just now, but he had forgotten about this matter, he couldn't help rubbing his stomach, and then frowned and looked at Xie Junnan.
Xie Junnan's face straightened a little, he looked at Zhuohua and said: "After the current predicament, I will find a way to get over this matter without hurting Zhuohua at all."
Zhuo Hua slightly raised his eyebrows: "When the time comes, you won't lie to me again, right?"
Xie Junnan shook his head and chuckled: "Don't worry, of course not, I promise."
Ziqing frowned, he nodded and pondered for a moment, did not speak, pinched the wife release letter and the agreement with his fingertips, Ziqing was not afraid that the matter would be difficult to turn around afterwards, and he didn't think much about it, but...he suddenly He said again: "If you can settle the matter well before my father and mother enter Beijing, then I won't mention a word to them, but if after my father and mother enter Beijing, If you haven't settled this matter well..." Ziqing squinted his eyes and looked at Zhuohua: "Go and explain to their elders yourself."
Zhuohua feels...
His knees seemed to be weak again.
Zhuohua and Xie Junnan's wedding day is scheduled for the 28th at the end of December. That day is a very auspicious day. All arrangements for the marriage are supervised and arranged by Madam Wu who is next to the old lady. It can be seen that the old lady How much does Jun like this marriage? When Zhuohua knew about this date, he was obviously stunned.Seeing his blank look, the old matriarch smiled from ear to ear: "What's the matter? Zhuohua? Did you know this news, and you were so happy that you were so dumb?".
Zhuo Hua had a complicated expression on his face: "Old Madam, is this day too rushed?".
It's just super fast!
The old matriarch said: "It's a bit late, but this day is indeed a very auspicious day. Besides, you can't wait in your current body. The sooner you do this, the better."
Zhuo Hua still frowned, trying to delay: "But this marriage... my mother and the others are not here...".
The old matriarch nodded, but said: "I know, you are aggrieved because your parents are not here, but there is no other way. I have asked Shiro to write a letter to your parents to explain the situation. I believe they will understand. After all, If you wait for your stomach to show up in the future, or wait until after you give birth to do this, it will only wrong you even more and make people outside gossip. Although the marriage has been rushed, but fortunately, I I made preparations for Shiro early, so I'm not afraid that I will be in a hurry. Besides, it's not a year or two for me to urge Shiro to get married, and outsiders can't say anything. Even if I want to say it, I They don't even have the guts to talk about me blatantly."
Zhuohua was miserable, he was afraid that those people would talk about him.
The old matriarch smiled, pulled Zhuohua and continued to look through the booklet in his hand, it was painted in the style of happy clothes...
As soon as the news of Xie Junnan's sudden marriage was released, everyone in the capital was shocked. After all, he was the one who even the prince eagerly came to see what was new. Regarding his lifelong event, there is no boudoir lady in the capital who would not It's just that Xie Junnan was away all the time and rarely returned to Beijing, which made it impossible for all the girls in the boudoir to do anything. But now that he finally came back, he was about to get married suddenly. Who would not be surprised and surprised by this?
What was also shocking and strange was that Dongfang Qingming, the son of the Dongfang family who came to ask Xie Junnan to marry him, and Xiaoba's second brother Zhuge Mingxiao, the three of them seemed to have made an appointment earlier, and they all came to Shangshu's mansion on the same day. After passing the old lady, the three of them went to the water courtyard to visit Xie Junnan, a man and wife who was famous in the capital for a time.
but……
When they entered, they didn't see Zhuohua yet, but they saw a child sitting on the stage outside the door, his shoes and socks were all taken off, his white and tender feet were soaked in the water, and the way he bent over was obviously teasing The Jinlin in the water didn't notice someone coming in outside, and the group of Jinlin kept surrounding the child's feet, fluttering and playing, each one as red as white as if they were competing to bloom in the water flower.
Seeing this, the three of them stopped at the same time, and Dongfang Qingming was even more suspicious: "Who is that child? Heh, he was born well and looks very aura."
Ba Shao didn't wait for Dongfang Qingming to finish speaking, he stepped forward with some lightness kung fu, and landed directly behind Hongri. Hong'er subconsciously turned her head to look, and found someone standing behind him for no reason, and immediately gave him a strange scream, and the whole body People fell directly into the pool.
Ba Shao wanted to stretch out his hand to pull him, but he had already
While they were still talking, servants came in outside the door and spontaneously brought them water and tea.
The topic between the old matriarch and Zhuo Hua has always revolved around Xie Junnan's childhood, which made Zhuo Hua very suspicious. The old matriarch said that the person who caused the storm in the capital and almost became a concubine would be sitting next to him. This person, no matter how you look at it, Xie Junnan doesn't look like a brother... Zhuo Hua rolled his eyes, and thought about the scene of Xie Junnan being subdued...
Zhuo Hua shuddered, unable to think.
"What's wrong?" The old lady looked at Zhuohua with concern, "But what's wrong?".
Zhuo Hua lightly coughed: "Nothing".
The old lady nodded: "You child, you are too thin, you should make up more."
Mrs. Xie nodded at the side, and said: "I'll watch it for a while, and I'll have someone bring Xie supplements to him. Take some before going to bed at night, the effect is the best."
Listening to the game, Zhuo Hua was embarrassed: "Old Madam, this is too expensive, how can I cause you such trouble, there is no need for this...".
"No trouble, no trouble." The old lady was still petty: "You child, why are you being polite to me?"
Zhuo Hua felt his scalp go numb.
The old matriarch didn't know what she thought of, and suddenly said: "This brother, although he seems to be fine on weekdays, his body is not very good, and he must take good care of it. Otherwise, it is easy to make mistakes when you are pregnant."
The topic suddenly came up to this point. Although Zhuohua was a little inexplicable, but this remark seemed to hit a certain nerve in him, making him suddenly think of the last moment of his life in his previous life...
"This is my brother's life." Zhuo Hua sighed lowly, muttering: "Brother's life is worthless in the first place, so what if I get pregnant...".
"Nonsense!" The old lady immediately scolded: "Who said that brother's life is not fate? You can't talk nonsense in the future, no one's life in this world is not life, especially brother, brother himself is endless Now that you have conceived, you have to take better care of it, how can it be child's play?".
These words were like a mallet, hammered hard in Zhuohua's heart, just as he raised his eyes to look at the old matriarch, Mrs. Xie also said from the side: "Our Xie family is not the kind of unreasonable people , even if this brother is conceived, it is his own destiny, let alone a brother who is pregnant with an heir."
Zhuo Hua looked towards Mrs. Xie, and saw that Mrs. Xie's eyes were also obviously stern, as if she was dissatisfied with her words just now, Zhuo Hua's heart suddenly jumped, and she secretly guessed that Mrs. Xie did it to conform to what the old lady said. That said, if you really don't like yourself...
Feeling tense in his heart, Zhuo Hua suddenly said: "I... have seen..." before. .
The old lady, Mrs. Xie, and Mrs. Xie Chen all stared at Zhuohua, fearing that Zhuohua would say something that they would not like to hear, Zhuohua secretly tightened his palms, but what he was about to say suddenly seemed a little bit hesitate.
The old matriarch took his hand and found that his palm was covered with cold sweat, so she couldn't help but frowned slightly, and coaxed him in a soft voice: "What have you seen? Take your time, don't be afraid, there is a grandma here." ".
Zhuo Hua pursed his lips, and was about to speak, but Xie Junnan suddenly said: "Grandma, grandma, mother, Zhuo Hua used to have a friend who was also a brother, but that person was tricked into bringing him to the capital to marry him. In the end, when she was just pregnant, she was... beaten to death by her husband's family... ".
It is one dead body and two lives.
The three of them were shocked together, as if they did not expect such a situation, the old lady even exclaimed: "It's a crime, it's really a crime."
Xie Chen also let out a long sigh: "No wonder, you just said such things...".
Mrs. Xie frowned: "It's true that there are not many backyards in the houses of this big family that are clean, but something so pickled and dirty is really...".
For example, Mrs. Xie, no matter how powerful she is, she has never easily killed anyone. Even the bastards of the Xie family, as long as they keep themselves safe, Mrs. Xie will not easily drive them to a dead end, so I listened to Xie Junnan's words at this moment , I just feel disgusted in my heart.
The old matriarch pondered for a moment, then saw that Zhuohua's face was not right, she coughed lightly, and changed the subject: "By the way, look at us, we just chatted with you as soon as we came here, how did you rest here last night? Are you still used to it?"
Of course, Zhuohua couldn't tell the truth what he said to Xie Junnan, so he hurriedly said: "Thank you, Mrs. Madam, for your concern, everything is fine here."
"That's good, that's good..." The old matriarch thought for a while, and then said: "You just came to the capital not long ago, you still have to take good care of it, eat and use whatever you want, just let Shiro do it for you, Don't embarrass yourself."
"Don't be so troublesome...".
"What you want is here." The old lady pretended to be angry: "You are not allowed to say such unreasonable words anymore, or I will be angry."
The Chinese language is blocked.
The old lady sighed: "Okay, after sitting here for a while, we should go too, just take a good rest."
"I'll see you off." Zhuo Hua hurriedly got up.
Xie Chen held him down: "You don't have to send it off, you should just rest well, your body has just passed the first month, luckily you are fine all the way here, otherwise, we have to peel off Shiro's skin."
What is just the first month?
Zhuo Hua was confused: "Thank you...".
"Mother, don't worry." Xie Junnan interrupted Zhuohua suddenly: "I will take good care of him, he just needs to rest here, I'll take you there."
"No need." The old lady stood by the door: "You'd better stay with their father and son."
what's the situation! ?
What father and son?
The old lady continued to yell at Zhuohua: "Thanks to his strong body, he was safe and sound all the way with you. If it were someone else, something might have happened a long time ago. Let Zhou Kang come over later to give him a pulse. You Also stay here well, we will call you if something happens."
Xie Junnan smiled wryly: "Yes".
Mrs. Xie negotiated to help the old matriarch, and the old matriarch turned to Mrs. Xie and said: "Get ready, just pick the nearest good time, and let's do this marriage."
Xie Chen hesitated: "Shouldn't we wait any longer?".
"What are you waiting for?" The voice of the old lady became farther and farther away: "We can wait, can the child wait? Just do as I say...".
Zhuohua was dizzy, and hearing their voices go away, he squinted his eyes and looked at Xie Junnan, gritted his teeth: "What the hell is going on!!!".
The conversation with the old matriarch and others today always made Zhuohua feel a little irrelevant, and he was confused throughout the whole process, but the last few words of the old matriarch and others when they were parting finally let Zhuohua know Where is the problem!
The old lady and others thought he was pregnant with Xie Junnan's child! ! !
Fucking stuff!
His face darkened, Zhuohua glared at Xie Junnan angrily.
Xie Junnan coughed lightly, "If I didn't say that, I don't care about grandma's place, the key is that my grandma's place is not easy to get through."
Zhuohua still gritted his teeth: "Then! Shut up! Me! What! What! What?!".
Xie Junnan asked unexpectedly: "Didn't you already promise to help me?".
Zhuohua was confused again: "When did I promise to help you?".
"Just yesterday, when we just arrived outside the gate of the mansion." Xie Junnan was also surprised, and said with a little grievance: "Didn't you ask me at that time, my dignified young master of the Shangshu Mansion, if I really just found a country boy As a wife, won't I be kicked out or even severed by your parents?".
The veins on the side of Zhuohua's forehead twitched suddenly: "So?".
"I thought you agreed to help me, that's why I asked this question."
Zhuo Hua narrowed his eyes: "So after we left yesterday, did you talk nonsense in front of them?".
Xie Junnan coughed lightly: "I just added a little oil and vinegar to the process of our acquaintance."
Zhuo Hua nodded slightly.
This so-called little bit means that Zhuohua has become an unmarried and pregnant brother!
It's really lucky that I'm not a woman, otherwise I would have been sunk, okay?
The more he thought about Zhuohua, the angrier he became. He was so angry that he rolled up his sleeves and rushed towards Xie Junnan. When he was overwhelmed, he greeted Xie Junnan with fists!
"Why don't you discuss this kind of important matter with me in advance, and just run away and talk nonsense! The old lady will send someone over to check my pulse, and when the time comes, how do you want me to face the old lady? How to talk to them Confess!" So the hole that Xie Junnan dug for himself is not ordinary big but huge! ! !The most important thing is that Zhuohua himself was kept in the dark the whole time, he couldn't help admiring himself, under such irrelevant conversations, he could still have a happy chat with the old lady and the others!
Xie Junnan knew he was in the wrong, he was crushed to the ground by Zhuohua, and he didn't dare to resist and struggle, he just covered his face with both hands: "It's easy to reveal the truth if you talk too much about this kind of thing, it's the easiest to win people's trust if you point it out, besides, you won't be able to do it after a while." Don't worry about Zhou Kang coming to check your pulse, I will arrange it when the time comes, and I will definitely not let you reveal your secrets in front of everyone."
Zhuohua was still very angry, he raised his fist, and greeted Xie Junnan vigorously, but just after a few rounds of beatings, Hong'er stretched out his head timidly, staring at the two of them with blinking eyes look!
Zhuohua's movements froze, and he quickly withdrew his hands, but looked down... Xie Junnan was lying on the ground at the moment, but he was riding on him, Zhuohua's face turned red, and he hurriedly got up and stood up.
Xie Junnan realized you, with a faint smile in his eyes, he covered his mouth and coughed lightly, and asked, "Hong'er. What are you doing hiding there?".
Hong'er blinked, and said honestly, "Third Brother and Jun Nan got into a fight, so I dare not go out."
"We didn't fight." Xie Junnan said seriously: "We are playing wrestling."
"Oh..." Hong'er responded, then turned her head to look at Zhuo Hua: "Third brother, you...do you really have a baby?".
Zhuohua turned his head suddenly, with an angry expression on his face, his eyes spewing fire, and abruptly scared Hong'er back to hide.
Xie Junnan coughed lightly: "You scared Hong'er."
Zhuo Hua gritted his teeth: "Who did it?".
Xie Junnan nodded honestly: "I did it, it's my fault, who made me think wrong at the time, that's why..." His eyes changed, and he looked at Zhuohua with a little pleading, seeing that Zhuohua was still the same. Unable to dissipate his anger, Xie Junnan let out a long sigh: "I'm to blame for this matter. I made a mistake at the beginning, thinking that Zhuohua was willing to help me once. Since Zhuohua didn't want to, then I'll go and tell my grandma the truth."
Zhuohua still turned his back to him and ignored him.
Xie Junnan turned around and walked outside: "It doesn't matter how grandma punishes me after I explain the truth to grandma, but... thinking about the marriage that uncle arranged for me before, it seems that I can only accept it... "At this point, Xie Junnan laughed lightly, the bitterness and desolation in that laughter sounded so helpless.
When Zhuo Hua turned his head angrily, Xie Junnan had already walked out of the door.
Hong'er hid behind the pillar and poked her head out after a while: "...Third Brother?".
"What for?" Zhuo Hua responded angrily.
Hong'er swallowed her saliva, and said cautiously: "I think, brother Junnan is in trouble, third brother, you should help him...".
Zhuo Hua frowned, turned around and looked at Hong'er.
Hong'er shrank behind the pillar and said, "Brother Junnan has helped us so much, but he has never asked us anything. You see, he helped the village solve the problem of the water source, and he also helped the second brother reverse the case. He also took us to the capital to seek refuge, helped me find a school, helped us find a house, and taught me to read. Brother Junnan is really kind. Brother, if you don't help Brother Junnan this time, do you really have the heart to watch Brother Junnan's future life be ruined like this?".
Zhuohua frowned even tighter: "What do you know?".
"Of course I understand." Hong'er said slowly, "If the third brother doesn't help Brother Junnan, then Brother Junnan will have to marry someone he doesn't like in the future, and he will have to live his whole life. How pitiful, let alone , if it wasn't for third brother, you would have made brother Junnan wrong, thinking you were going to help him, he wouldn't dare to do such a thing, would he?"
So... After all, this is so wrong that I have become myself?
Having said that, Hong'er shut up and stopped talking, only opened a pair of watery eyes, staring at Zhuohua, her lips pursed slightly, as if she was silently accusing Zhuohua of not repaying her kindness The reason is the same!
Zhuohua had a headache, he patted his head irritably, and finally ran out after Xie Junnan as if he was going all out.
So, the most annoying thing in this world is debt of favor!
It's not over yet!
Although angry, Zhuo Hua also felt a little guilty when he thought of what Hong Er said, not to mention anything else, he only said that Xie Junnan not only helped Ziqing overturn the case, but also saved himself from Lian Ying, both of which If you add it together, you have to pay it back, but... Xie Junnan's footsteps are too fast, and he disappeared after only a while.
Zhuohua panicked a little, stopped a servant halfway, asked where the old matriarch's yard was, and ran over in a hurry.
In the Luoxia Garden, the old matriarch was sitting on top, and Xie Junnan was kneeling in the middle. I don't know what he said, which made the old matriarch's face a bit gloomy, and he didn't even ask him to get up.
Madam Wu, who was serving the old matriarch, opened the door curtain, lowered her eyes and came in, then whispered next to the old matriarch: "Madam, the young master from the water courtyard is here. He looks very anxious, as if he has something to do."
The old lady was obviously taken aback, and put down the teacup quickly: "Then let him in quickly, but he will be tired by letting him outside."
Mother Wu should be, she turned around and went out again.
When Zhuo Hua came in with Nanny Wu, he saw Xie Junnan kneeling on the ground with his head bowed, and his heart skipped a beat. Could it be that Xie Junnan spoke so quickly and said everything?
Thinking of this, Zhuo Hua's heart suddenly tensed up even more. If Xie Junnan had already said that he was late, then what's the point of standing here at this moment?
Zhuohua's mind was in a mess, and he couldn't figure it out for a while. He saw Xie Junnan kneeling on the ground, rolled his eyes, and simply walked over, and knelt on the ground with Xie Junnan.
"What is this for?" The old lady was startled and hurriedly stretched out her hand to pull Zhuohua.
Xie Junnan also accidentally went to see Zhuohua.
Zhuohua's heart was beating like a drum, and his breathing was a little short. At this moment, he knelt down in front of the old matriarch. Because of nervousness, the thin sweat stains on his forehead were gathering more and more. Zhuohua didn't know Xie Junnan's last wry smile when he left. What happened to me, I broke away from the old matriarch's hand, and reached out to grab Xie Junnan's hand hanging by his side.
Xie Junnan's eyes were a little surprised, he only looked at Zhuohua for a moment.
Zhuohua was a little flustered, he took a deep breath, and tried to calm himself down: "Old Madam... Thank you..." The three words Mr. Xie almost blurted out, but thinking of the current stage, Zhuohua could only say lamely Let yourself change your words: "What Shiro told you just now is not true, it's just because I got into a quarrel with him just now, and he was angry with me, that's why he said those nonsense, don't take it to your heart, Mrs. yes".
Xie Junnan listened, his heart tensed, and his subordinates immediately grabbed Zhuohua's hand forcefully.
The old matriarch looked at the hands they held tightly, sighed softly, and hurriedly reached out to pull Zhuohua, but only blamed Xie Junnan: "It's a good thing that it's all nonsense, just talk about it here, if He didn't know how to measure, and he also told his grandmother to tell him, I think his head was probably kicked by a donkey."
Zhuo Hua's heart skipped a beat.
So has Xie Junnan really told the truth?
The old lady turned her head to look at Zhuohua again, saw that Zhuohua's expression was not right, and her head was full of sweat, so she said to Madam Wu worriedly: "Go and call Zhou Kang here, and feel Zhuohua's pulse. The child's complexion is very ugly, probably because he was pissed off by this bastard before."
Mother Wu should be, she turned around and went out to order her servants.
After Wu mama left, the old matriarch came out with a handkerchief, lovingly wiped the cold sweat off Zhuohua's brow, and said: "This bastard is used to being wild outside, and he has become more and more unruly, so it's hard for you Being angry with him, he ran over to intercede for him regardless of his body."
Zhuo Hua could only continue to speak against his conscience: "Si Lang... is actually very good, really, he is open and upright, and he takes care of me a lot. In fact, I owe him the most, but... if I and him were not Because of the different identities, I didn't get into a quarrel just now, and I was so angry that he came here to talk nonsense."
The old lady frowned slightly: "Are those words that Shiro said just now really nonsense? Are those just angry words?".
Zhuohua nodded: "He was just talking nonsense when I was angry with him, he can't take it seriously..." Pursing his lips, Zhuohua, in order to win the trust of the old matriarch, said as if to go out: "Actually, it doesn't matter if he is Potian Rich or noble, or just a poor scholar, or just a countryman, as long as he treats me well, I am willing to follow him. Money in this world is something outside of the body. How can it be compared to holding the hand of the son and growing old with the son?".
"Hold your hand and grow old with you..." The old lady murmured these words, as if remembering something, her eyes suddenly became warm, and her smile increased a lot: "That's good, that's good Ah, money and wealth are all external things, if you don’t bring them with you when you die, no matter how much money you have, it’s really nothing compared to holding your hand and growing old with you.”
Xie Junnan knelt on the ground. Although he lowered his head, the corners of his lips pursed slightly, and seemed to be in an imperceptible arc.
The old lady gave a long sigh, and finally said, "What are you doing kneeling? Get up."
"Yes".
Hearing this, Xie Junnan got up, and when he got up, he looked straight at Zhuohua with his eyes, the tenderness in his eyes seemed to have been soaked in water, or filled with honey, very greasy.
Zhuohua thought of the crisis that had just been resolved, so he looked at Xie Junnan cooperatively.
Seeing the two of them like this, the old lady smiled even more intensely in her eyes, but her words left Zhuohua stunned.
She said: "Just now I asked Shiro to come here, and I was discussing with Shiro about your marriage. Originally, I wanted Shiro to take advantage of this incident to invite his third grandfather over, but Shiro refused no matter what. , No, just fight with me, this bastard also said that if he has to ask his third grandfather, he would rather not have this marriage, tell me, is he angry?".
So... Xie Junnan knelt here, completely different from what Zhuohua thought! ! !
Isn't what I said just now a big joke! ?
Xie Junnan glanced at Zhuohua, as if he knew what Zhuohua was thinking at the moment, he also looked solemn, but compared to the previous tough spoken words, he has softened a lot at this moment: "Grandma, it's not that I'm stubborn but... oh ... What kind of virtue is the great grandma and the third grandpa? , then what should I do if I hurt Zhuo Hua?"
"Your third grandfather has been kicked out for so many years, don't you really want to give him a chance?" The old matriarch also frowned.
Zhuo Hua saw that the voices of the two of them suddenly became serious, and he couldn't help being suspicious: "This third grandpa is...?" What's going on?
Xie Junnan frowned, and was about to speak, but the old matriarch sighed: "You should think about this matter carefully, you have not yet set a specific date, but today I will put the words here, If your third grandfather and the others come by then, he still doesn't know what to do, I have my own family rules to punish him, by the way." The old matriarch suddenly changed the subject: "Why did you and Zhuohua have an argument just now?".
Xie Junnan was slightly stunned, as if he didn't realize it, the old matriarch's thinking would jump so fast, he looked at Zhuohua, and was thinking about how to round up the words, when Zhuohua suddenly said: "Yeah. It's not a big deal, it's just that I was greedy and wanted to eat sour fruit before, but Shiro didn't allow it, he just said that too much sour fruit food is not easy to digest, and he forced me to eat that root soup, I don't want to, so I tripped over him, he He also said that I am so ignorant, and later I want to ask the old lady to discipline me, so I was angry with him and said harsh words... ".
Xie Junnan was listening, his brows twitched suddenly, especially... when Zhuohua said this, and he looked a little aggrieved, he felt his brows twitched even more.
As expected, the old lady turned her head and scolded him: "You are such a big brother, why are you still messing around like this? You just give him what Zhuohua wants to eat, how can you force him to eat something he doesn't like? Thanks to Zhuohua This child is sensible, otherwise others would think that our Xie family is going to bully a child like him!".
Xie Junnan couldn't argue, so he could only admit: "Grandma taught me well."
The old lady continued to teach him: "Zhuo Hua is pregnant now, has strange tastes and a strange temper, it's normal, you should let him in more, besides, he likes to eat sour food now, that's normal, how can you still Can it be allowed?".
Xie Junnan hurriedly begged for mercy: "I see, I'll send someone to get him some more sour fruits right away, and he can eat whatever he likes."
The old lady nodded in satisfaction.
Outside the door, Nanny Wu raised the curtain at the moment, and behind him was a man in his thirties. The man carried a medicine box on his back, and he looked upright. After entering the door, Zhou Kang stepped forward and saluted the old matriarch. The old matriarch waved his hand and asked him to feel Zhuohua's pulse.
Zhuo Hua was a little panicked at first, but when he raised his eyes and saw Xie Junnan standing aside and nodding secretly towards him, he let out a low breath and stretched out his wrist.
When taking the pulse, the room was so quiet that a needle could be heard, Zhou Kang touched Zhuohua's wrist, his originally relaxed brows were slightly furrowed, his appearance immediately made the old lady's heart suspend.
After a while, Zhou Kangcai said: "Little master's health is fine, but the pulse condition is a bit weak, presumably it is because of being too tired before, so I just need to take care of it, and the little master seems to have an old disease, but it has been a long time. Not too short."
Zhuo Hua nodded: "It's a stomachache, I made it myself when I was a child, but I take medicine on weekdays, so it won't happen."
The old lady frowned: "Can this be cured?".
Zhou Kang pondered for a while, and said: "The radical cure can be cured, but it is a little troublesome, but don't worry, I will do my best."
The old lady nodded, and asked again: "By the way, does his stomach ache affect his current body?".
"Naturally..." No effect.
Zhou Kang almost blurted out, but he instantly remembered Zhuohua's current "pulse condition", and after a pause, he changed his words: "Of course there is some influence, after all, the little master is pregnant now, so I can't get angry, if the stomachache occurs , I’m afraid it’s not very good for the child in the womb.”
This is clearly what Xie Junnan said, but it somehow makes Xie Junnan feel like he is being attacked...
Sure enough, the next moment he received the old lady's reproachful gaze, and... Zhuohua's gloating gaze.
Does this count as throwing stones at your feet?
Xie Junnan wasn't sure, but he also made himself laugh and cry.
Zhou Kang's words "confirmed" Zhuohua's current physical condition. Although not many people in Xie's family knew about it, they couldn't stand an impenetrable wall, not to mention that Zhuohua was pregnant, Mrs. Xie told her personally Let Dafang know.
Xie Xun frowned slightly when he heard the news that Mrs. Xie Wu got from Mrs. Xie, but he didn't say anything, but this Xie Wu frowned: "Master, look, this Shiro is planning a good marriage. No, you have to be with that country boy of unknown origin, but the old lady, the old lady, and the old man all agreed to this matter, and the news of this marriage will be spread in the future, and our Xie family...how can we afford to lose this person?".
"So what if I can't afford to lose it?" Xie Xun frowned: "Don't say that Li Zhuohua is pregnant now, because he saved Shiro's life before, if Shiro insists, even if his parents don't agree, so what? This marriage As long as Grandma agrees, who would dare to criticize her?"
"But……".
"Okay." Xie Xun interrupted Xie Wu: "Instead of thinking wildly, it's better to be like a mother and follow Grandma's thoughts. I know that the Jiang family girl is your sister's daughter. Even if she likes Shiro, But now I can't help her with this matter, and by the way, I would like to remind you that Li Zhuohua is now my grandma's rebel, you'd better restrain yourself and don't cause trouble."
These words sounded extremely uncomfortable, Xie Wushi wanted to refute a few words, but Xie Xun changed his clothes, opened the door and went out without giving her a chance to speak at all.
Xie Wushi was so angry that he could only adjust his mood secretly, then put on a smiling face and went to the second bedroom's yard to inquire about the news.
****************************************
When Zhuohua and Xie Junnan left the old lady's courtyard, Xie Junnan still held his hand tightly. Zhuohua looked embarrassed, and tried to break free several times but failed. Instead, he had to say Xie Junnan: "acting Do a full set."
Zhuohua couldn't say no to him, so he followed him.
The two returned to the water courtyard, and Zhuohua finally broke free, but unexpectedly, when he turned around, he saw Ziqing sitting in the hall, staring at them with a gloomy expression.
Zhuohua's heart skipped a beat, and then he remembered belatedly... He forgot that he still has a second brother who needs to be explained to him.
Hong'er was sitting at the table, holding a teacup in his hand, seeing that Zhuo Hua and Xie Junnan seemed to be frozen by the door, he kindly reminded them: "I have already told the second brother what happened just now, the second brother Brother now knows that the third brother has a baby."
Zhuo Hua's knees softened and he almost knelt down.
Are you sure this brother isn't adding fuel to the fire?
Looking at Ziqing again in a blink of an eye, his face was as black as a lump of carbon!
"Second brother, listen to my explanation..." Zhuo Hua hurried into the room, and briefly explained the matter aside, Ziqing still frowned after hearing this.
Xie Junnan also bowed to the side: "It was my helpless move to make such a bad move, and I hope Ziqing will forgive me."
Ziqing let out a low breath, and after a while he asked, "Can you really erase the record of marrying Zhuohua from the official media?".
"I promise, it will be possible."
Ziqing still frowned, but said: "In this case, let me keep the wife release letter and agreement."
Xie Junnan was slightly taken aback, but it didn't show on his face.
Ziqing said solemnly: "You have been kind to our brothers many times, and Zhuohua should help you with this busyness, but it may change in the future. It is more appropriate to leave the wife's letter and agreement to me for safekeeping."
Zhuo Hua nodded along, "I think what the second brother said makes sense." Then, he also frowned and stared at Xie Junnan.
Xie Junnan glanced at him, and found that the three brothers were staring at him with the same gaze. At that moment, Xie Junnan sighed lightly, and could only resign himself to finding a pen and paper, and laid it on the table to write down the wife release letter and the agreement. After branding it with his own seal, he handed the item to Ziqing with both hands.
Ziqing held it in his hand and turned it over and over again. He didn't know what he was thinking of, and suddenly said: "You used the matter of Zhuohua's pregnancy to deceive the old lady and the others like this, but have you thought about how this matter will be resolved later? ?”.
Zhuo Hua was obviously taken aback, he had been impulsive just now, but he had forgotten about this matter, he couldn't help rubbing his stomach, and then frowned and looked at Xie Junnan.
Xie Junnan's face straightened a little, he looked at Zhuohua and said: "After the current predicament, I will find a way to get over this matter without hurting Zhuohua at all."
Zhuo Hua slightly raised his eyebrows: "When the time comes, you won't lie to me again, right?"
Xie Junnan shook his head and chuckled: "Don't worry, of course not, I promise."
Ziqing frowned, he nodded and pondered for a moment, did not speak, pinched the wife release letter and the agreement with his fingertips, Ziqing was not afraid that the matter would be difficult to turn around afterwards, and he didn't think much about it, but...he suddenly He said again: "If you can settle the matter well before my father and mother enter Beijing, then I won't mention a word to them, but if after my father and mother enter Beijing, If you haven't settled this matter well..." Ziqing squinted his eyes and looked at Zhuohua: "Go and explain to their elders yourself."
Zhuohua feels...
His knees seemed to be weak again.
Zhuohua and Xie Junnan's wedding day is scheduled for the 28th at the end of December. That day is a very auspicious day. All arrangements for the marriage are supervised and arranged by Madam Wu who is next to the old lady. It can be seen that the old lady How much does Jun like this marriage? When Zhuohua knew about this date, he was obviously stunned.Seeing his blank look, the old matriarch smiled from ear to ear: "What's the matter? Zhuohua? Did you know this news, and you were so happy that you were so dumb?".
Zhuo Hua had a complicated expression on his face: "Old Madam, is this day too rushed?".
It's just super fast!
The old matriarch said: "It's a bit late, but this day is indeed a very auspicious day. Besides, you can't wait in your current body. The sooner you do this, the better."
Zhuo Hua still frowned, trying to delay: "But this marriage... my mother and the others are not here...".
The old matriarch nodded, but said: "I know, you are aggrieved because your parents are not here, but there is no other way. I have asked Shiro to write a letter to your parents to explain the situation. I believe they will understand. After all, If you wait for your stomach to show up in the future, or wait until after you give birth to do this, it will only wrong you even more and make people outside gossip. Although the marriage has been rushed, but fortunately, I I made preparations for Shiro early, so I'm not afraid that I will be in a hurry. Besides, it's not a year or two for me to urge Shiro to get married, and outsiders can't say anything. Even if I want to say it, I They don't even have the guts to talk about me blatantly."
Zhuohua was miserable, he was afraid that those people would talk about him.
The old matriarch smiled, pulled Zhuohua and continued to look through the booklet in his hand, it was painted in the style of happy clothes...
As soon as the news of Xie Junnan's sudden marriage was released, everyone in the capital was shocked. After all, he was the one who even the prince eagerly came to see what was new. Regarding his lifelong event, there is no boudoir lady in the capital who would not It's just that Xie Junnan was away all the time and rarely returned to Beijing, which made it impossible for all the girls in the boudoir to do anything. But now that he finally came back, he was about to get married suddenly. Who would not be surprised and surprised by this?
What was also shocking and strange was that Dongfang Qingming, the son of the Dongfang family who came to ask Xie Junnan to marry him, and Xiaoba's second brother Zhuge Mingxiao, the three of them seemed to have made an appointment earlier, and they all came to Shangshu's mansion on the same day. After passing the old lady, the three of them went to the water courtyard to visit Xie Junnan, a man and wife who was famous in the capital for a time.
but……
When they entered, they didn't see Zhuohua yet, but they saw a child sitting on the stage outside the door, his shoes and socks were all taken off, his white and tender feet were soaked in the water, and the way he bent over was obviously teasing The Jinlin in the water didn't notice someone coming in outside, and the group of Jinlin kept surrounding the child's feet, fluttering and playing, each one as red as white as if they were competing to bloom in the water flower.
Seeing this, the three of them stopped at the same time, and Dongfang Qingming was even more suspicious: "Who is that child? Heh, he was born well and looks very aura."
Ba Shao didn't wait for Dongfang Qingming to finish speaking, he stepped forward with some lightness kung fu, and landed directly behind Hongri. Hong'er subconsciously turned her head to look, and found someone standing behind him for no reason, and immediately gave him a strange scream, and the whole body People fell directly into the pool.
Ba Shao wanted to stretch out his hand to pull him, but he had already
