Gong Xingji carried this big bag of silver two feet deep and one foot shallow and went home.

His husband and children happened to be out to the market that day, and there was no one in the house, and the gate was locked with a big lock.

Gong Xingji opened the door with the key she had prepared and entered the home where she had lived for more than ten years.

Home is still the same home, the furnishings are the same as in the past, but for some reason, today especially gives her an indescribable sense of coldness.

This is the first time since she entered the palace to do things that she feels that this home is so deserted.

It's really not good to have no woman in the house, she said in her heart, holding her slightly heavy waist and starting to clean, and then washing the sheets, wiping the tables and chairs.

When everything was in order, the sun was already in the west, but the husband and children still did not return.

Gong Xingji suddenly felt an indescribable fear and sadness, and couldn't help but cover her mouth and cry quietly.

She felt guilty about her husband.

Since she had intimacy/closeness/contact with the crown prince, she has the heart to cling to the heavenly family, and slowly neglects her husband and children.

Now that she is pregnant with the flesh and blood of the crown prince, but it is the flesh and blood that the heavenly family cannot tolerate, she feels that all her previous ambitions are just her own wishful thinking.

Now, this daydream has been ruthlessly shaken awake by reality, and her heart is broken.

But, no matter what, she is only in her early thirties, and she still has a long way to go in life, and she must go on with her spirits.

The door creaked, and his husband and three children walked in.

Gong Xingji hurriedly got up to greet him.

The three children pounced on her at once, calling their mother affectionately.

Miyayukihime looked at her husband as she responded.

Her husband's surname is Jiang, his name is Jiang Shou, he is a carpenter, and he is Chinese New Year's Eve two years old.

Seeing Gong Xingji, Jiang Shou first looked at her stomach.

He knew about her pregnancy, as early as more than a month.

Husband and wife get together after a long absence, so naturally they will inevitably have some intimacy/affection, but the last time he met her, she didn't allow it, saying that she was pregnant.

Jiang Shou was a little confused at that time, because he hadn't seen her for several months before that, why did she get pregnant at this time?

Under Jiang Shou's questioning, Gong Xingji told her and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince about it.

Jiang Shou felt very ashamed and helpless.

When Gong Xingji was admitted to the palace, he felt vaguely uneasy, because he knew too well the complexity of the palace, but their family was poor, and their three children were growing up, they needed food and clothing, and they also needed to learn some skills, and they had to raise money to marry a daughter-in-law in the future, all of which needed money.

And entering the palace to do things can have a good income, plus I heard that it is to take care of the third prince Xiao Dining, which means that Gong Xingji can often deal with the queen Liu, if she can gain the trust and respect of the queen, then Gong Xingji still has the possibility of promotion, thinking about it, Jiang Shou finally agreed to Gong Xingji's request to enter the palace to do things.

Right now, Gong Xingji is pregnant with the prince's child, which is both surprising to Jiang Shou and somewhat unexpected by Jiang Shou, because Gong Xingji has talked about how the prince treats her well in front of him more than once.

"Then ......." Jiang Shou hesitated for a moment and asked, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince should know, right?"

Miyayukihime nodded.

"What did he say?" Jiang Shou asked pretending to be inadvertent.

"He asked me to keep it a secret, saying that he was going to marry Miss Zhang soon and didn't want Miss Zhang to know about it. ”

Jiang Shou's face suddenly appeared angry, and he said, "This is like throwing off a burden, so did he say that he recognized this child?"

"He hasn't said yet. ”

Jiang Shou sighed and said, "Why don't you ask him about such an important matter?"

"He's been busy with his wedding lately and hasn't seen me at all. ”

"But your belly is getting bigger and bigger. ”

"Yesterday the queen mother talked to me, I told her the truth, she thought that it was better for me not to disclose the father of this child, otherwise I would definitely be squeezed by the crown princess in the future, and even my life would be in danger. Gong Xingji replied.

"What?" Jiang Shou stood up and said angrily, "Then they don't plan to recognize this child?"

Miyayukihime nodded.

Jiang Shou's face was flushed with anger, and he said, "What a group of wolves in human skin, even more ruthless than wolves." ”

Gong Xingji hurriedly took his hand and said, "Don't be angry, it's useless for you to be angry." He added, "The queen mother said that from now on, she and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will be responsible for the food and clothing of me and this child, so as to ensure that we have no worries about food and clothing." ”

The expression on Jiang Shou's face was not so angry when he heard this, but there was still some indescribable sadness.

A man, if he is not forced to do so, how can he watch his wife being treated like this? But since the queen mother said that she would give Qian Gong Xingji's mother and son in the future, then Gong Xingji will definitely take care of him and his three children, and for him who has been struggling in the survival line, this is undoubtedly also a way to live, so he had to swallow the grievances in his stomach and acquiesce to this child.

Maybe he still felt a little unhappy in his heart, Jiang Shou tossed Gong Xingji a lot that night.

Gong Xingji couldn't stand it anymore, so she bit him on the shoulder, and said with teary eyes: "Even if you are dissatisfied with this child, you have to take care of me, right?

Jiang Shou didn't respond, and still tossed her over and over again.

Gong Xingji only felt that the sky was about to fall, so she picked up the bedside lamp and smashed it on him.

Jiang Shou snorted and fell down.

Gong Xingji didn't care about him, and after a while, she found that he didn't move at all, so she hurriedly sat up and looked at him.

He was just hit so violently by her, I don't know which nerve it hit, the whole person immediately fainted, and the whole night of torture consumed too much physical strength, so after fainting, he didn't know anything.

Gong Xingji didn't even have time to put on his clothes, so he hurriedly got out of bed to find medicine for him, and after giving him warm water, he stayed by the side in a hurry, and did not lie back on the bed until he woke up.

As soon as she lay down, her tears fell, and she asked herself what she was doing all her life for, and why she couldn't escape the torture of men.

Jiang Shou saw her tears, so he slowly reached over and wiped her tears with his sleeve, while saying, "I'm not in a good mood today, that's why it's like this, I apologize to you!"

Gong Xingji said: "How many days have you been in a good mood?"

"I won't be like this in the future. ”

"You've said that more than three times. Gong Xingji said, throwing off his hand and turning in.

Jiang Shou was suddenly angry, pressed her under him, and said viciously: "Stinky girl, who do you think you are? ”

Gong Xingji was also angry, glared at him with red eyes and said fiercely: "Okay, you should go and see if anyone is willing to follow you." ”

Indeed, Jiang Shou is not outstanding, his mouth is not sweet, and his family is poor, so ordinary young women will never take a fancy to him.

Jiang Shou suddenly felt deflated when he heard her words, turned over and lay down weakly, turned his back to her, and never said a word all night.
