After that, Dr. Chen arrived, first examined Ji Xinyao's body, and made sure that Ji Xinyao was very healthy, and the fetal gas was much more stable than before, and He Jiezhen and the old man's hearts were relaxed.

However, Dr. Chen instructed that it is best to take Chinese medicine for another month, after all, you can't use Western medicine indiscriminately when you are pregnant, although Chinese medicine is slow, but it is good for both mother and child to slowly recuperate, so He Jiezhen ordered someone to transfer Sister Qin, who had stayed up late for Ji Xinyao, into Gu's house, and still let Sister Qin be responsible for taking care of Ji Xinyao's body.

Gu Yuanheng was busy in the military region, the old man liked to play chess with himself when he was bored on weekdays, and listened to the commentary, and when Ji Xinyao went downstairs after taking a bath that night, he saw the old man playing chess by himself there, so he walked over with a smile: "Grandpa, I'll accompany you to play." ”

"Yo, you girl can play chess?" Old Man Gu glanced at her with a smile, but he didn't refuse, and beckoned her to sit down: "Come on, come on, sit down." ”

"I'll only be the most basic, compared to a veteran like you, grandpa, I guess I lost after a few steps." Ji Xinyao laid out the chess in front of her: "But it's more interesting for two people to play chess than for you to play by yourself and yourself, so I'll help you relieve your boredom." 弼"

"Okay, let the old man try your skills."

Ji Xinyao saw that the red chess was on her side, so she took the first step, and when the old man saw her coming up, he walked directly away, and immediately laughed: "You thief girl, you want to come up and eat the old man's pawn, when I am so easy to provoke?" ”

"Grandpa, I actually only know how to walk the sun and walk the field, and I don't know much else, this is still when I was three or four years old, I vaguely remember some of them, and my mother taught me."

The old man moved the chess piece's hand for a moment, suddenly glanced at her, and asked seriously: "Thief girl, old man, I have something to ask you, you have to tell the truth." ”

"Grandpa is going to ask about Xiuli?"

"Clever! Sure enough, talking to you girl, I'm not tired! A little bit is thorough. ”

Old man Gu smiled, then raised his hand, as if he had lost the interest in playing chess, sat on the recliner, looked at her, and then whispered: "Old man, I never thought that my little grandson, who had been missing for more than 20 years, actually grew up next to you, about my little grandson, is a big taboo for our Gu family, no one has dared to talk about this matter casually for more than 20 years, but since Xiu Li's child is very close to you, I might as well talk to you, old man." ”

Xin Yao casually poured a cup of tea for the old man, put it in front of him, and listened quietly.

The old man liked and appreciated her more in his eyes, and seemed to trust her more and more, and nodded at her with a smile: "More than 20 years ago, Yuanheng had an affair with a woman and had a child outside, at that time Nancy was just five years old, and Yufei was only three years old, I knew it at that time, so I decisively let Yuanheng cut off contact with that woman, and the child ......"

He sighed and said: "After Xiao Zhen married into the Gu family, she has always been a very sensible daughter-in-law, and she is very smart, in fact, Xiao Zhen has always known about this, but she has always pretended not to know for the sake of Nancy and Yufei, and has endured it for many years. None of us wanted to upset this balance in the family, and I didn't plan to let the child who was outside from Yuan Heng enter the Gu family, but then something happened, the woman who had an affair with Yuan Heng outside had a serious illness, and then was sent to the United States for recuperation, and the child she had just given birth to disappeared inexplicably......"

Speaking of this, Old Man Gu sighed again: "Things were a little complicated back then, but for the sake of the Gu family, for Nancy and Yufei, and for Yuanheng's reputation in the military world, I relied on my power to suppress this qiē gossip, and then after the child disappeared for many years, I thought that the child was eighty percent dead, and disappeared shortly after birth, not to mention that his mother is still a seriously ill and delirious mother, and it is possible to find a qiē, in the past 20 years, although I sometimes try to find the trace of this child, But most of the time, it was decided that he was no longer alive, so I didn't go out of my way to find him. ”

"Actually, it's my fault." He rubbed his head, which was almost gone: "Although the things back then were for the good of the Gu family, but after all, the child was innocent, I didn't expect that the child had been displaced for so many years, if it wasn't for your mother's kindness to adopt him, if it weren't for the care and love you have always taken care of him as a younger brother, and if it weren't for Xin Yao's appearance, I'm afraid that the old man and I will die and I won't be able to see this little grandson who has grown up......"

Although most of Old Man Gu's words were reminiscences and feelings, Ji Xinyao could hear it, and he skillfully avoided all sensitive topics in his words.

"Old man, I will tell you this, Xin Yao, I don't know if you can understand my thoughts, I am old, no matter how I was young, how to fight the world with a gun when I was young, no matter how energetic I am now, I am old after all, I may be able to live for one or two more years, if I can really live a long life, I can only live for ten or eight years at most, Nancy and Yufei have also grown up, although Xiao Zhen has always had an indifferent attitude towards the things of the year, but when she saw Xiu Li that day, she didn't say anything, I know that she is bitter in her heart, But she understands better than anyone that Xiu Li is Yuan Heng's illegitimate son, but after all, he also has the blood of the Gu family, he is the old man, my own grandson, and Nancy, the palms and backs of his hands are full of meat, old man, I just want Xiu Li to come back home, and I hope that all the children can accompany me to talk around my knees...... Ahem......"

"Grandpa, drink some water, speak slowly." Seeing the old man's sudden violent cough, Xin Yao hurriedly raised the teacup in front of him.

The old man took a sip of hot tea and came to his breath, and his bright eyes were a little cloudy: "For Xiaozhen, it is our Gu family who owes her, but she has always understood the general situation and endures what ordinary people can't bear, for so many years, she has been tacit, although she often quarrels with Yuanheng's bull temper, but she has never mentioned in front of Yuanheng that he was outside and that woman, Xiaozhen is too sensible, she knows that once something is broken on the surface, it can't be returned to its original shape, so she has been enduring it for many years, So the old man, I have always been the master for Xiao Zhen, and I never let that woman step into the door of the Gu family. ”

"The things of the year were all made by me the old man, whether it was the harm to Xiu Li's mother, or the injustice to Xiu Li, I just hope that the child can come back and have a good talk with me, don't hate Xiao Zhen, don't hate me, and don't hate Yuan Heng, the entanglements of the previous generation will go into the ground with me a hundred years later, you young people, you shouldn't bear this."

"So the thief girl...... Can you, let Xiuli come back to the Gu family during the Spring Festival, let me see him again, his surname is Gu, he is also my Gu Zhanzhong's grandson, he shouldn't be surnamed Ji, he has my blood on his body, how can I let him live outside after knowing where he is, let him come back, thief girl, I know he listens to you, I owe you a favor to the old man, you want to find a way to let him accompany me to have a reunion dinner......"

Ji Xinyao looked down at the chessboard in front of her, and finally couldn't help asking: "Grandpa, since you said that Xiuli's biological mother was seriously ill and delirious, then she ......" She pretended not to know and asked, "Is she still alive?" ”

The old man thought for a while, squinted his eyes as if he was recalling something: "I haven't been to the United States all these years, I heard Yuanheng say that there is a special doctor over there to accompany her, and Yuanheng hasn't been there for so many years, but he has never heard any bad news, it should be, he is still alive." ”

How weak the human affection is.

Even if that woman almost destroyed Gu Yuanheng's family, after all, she also gave birth to a son for the Gu family, and although she was at fault, her punishment was enough, more than 20 years of bone separation, more than 20 years of madness, I am afraid she didn't know which magnificent cage she was recuperating in, and even for so many years, Gu Yuanheng had never seen her, and she didn't even know whether she was dead or alive.

Therefore, Gu Yuanheng's cold and hard temper, Ji Xinyao can also understand it, he has always been a man without a heart.

At this moment, Wen Qing went downstairs with a pot of flowers that were about to wither, as if she was looking for a way to save it, and when she saw Ji Xinyao playing chess and talking with the old man, her eyes immediately flashed, and she came over with the flower pot, and called the old man sweetly: "Grandpa, it's so late, you should go and rest." ”

"I'm not sleepy, Xiaoqing, what's wrong with the flowers in your hand?"

"I forgot to water it for a month, and it withered." Wen Qing looked down at the flowers in her hand as if she was very distressed, and then glanced at the teapot in Ji Xinyao's hand, and saw that Ji Xinyao was pouring tea into the old man's already empty cup, so she suddenly smiled, put down the flower pot, walked over, and took the teapot from her hand: "Sister Xinyao, you are pregnant, I will do this kind of thing of pouring tea for grandpa in the future." ”

As she spoke, she poured tea for the old man with a smile, but the old man didn't think much about it, but listened to her call "Sister Xin Yao", and there was a little relief in her eyes.

But Ji Xinyao knew that Wen Qing was afraid that she would completely take away her favor from the old man's side, and she didn't even want to fake her hands for things like pouring tea and making tea, so she couldn't help but sigh in her heart.

That's it, there's no need to fight for anything.

But Wen Qing obviously refused to let her stay out of the matter, and after pouring tea for the old man, she picked up another cup and poured a cup, and sent it to Ji Xinyao, smiling as if flattering: "Sister Xin Yao, you can have a drink too." ”

Ji Xinyao's eyes froze, and she raised her eyes and looked at her lightly.

Wen Qing just held her glass, if she didn't take it, it would be a small belly chicken intestine, but what if she did?

Old Man Gu saw that something was wrong, and couldn't help but speak: "Xiaoqing, Xin Yao can't drink such strong tea now, she can drink flower tea at most." ”

Wen Qing didn't expect the old man to speak, the hand holding the cup couldn't help but tighten, but there was still a smile in his eyes, and he said an innocent "oh" and was about to put down the cup.

Ji Xinyao reached out and took her teacup at the same time, did not drink it, but put it on the table, and said with a calm smile: "It's the Spring Festival soon, Wen Qing should be 24 years old, you are no longer a child, why don't you even know such a thing as pregnant women can't drink strong tea?" ”

After that, she smiled and said while Wen Qing gradually suppressed her smile: "I have a few books on pregnancy knowledge there, find time to give you two, anyway, you should be about to get married at this age, and you will need it sooner or later, lest you accidentally drink these things that you shouldn't drink, and lose the child, then you don't have to taste it, after all, once you lose your child, you will know how painful it is......"

Old man Gu seemed to vaguely hear the meaning of Ji Xinyao's polite words, she was warning Wen Qing not to do "do unto others as you would have them do unto you", the old man looked at the teacup that Xin Yao put on the table, and then looked at Wen Qing's expression that seemed to be forbearing, and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly: "Xiaoqing, go to sleep, this pot of flowers can be saved, if you can't save it, forget it, go to bed early." ”

The old man's order to evict the guest was so direct, Wen Qing immediately bit her lip, the hand hidden in her sleeve clenched into a fist, turned around without saying a word, hugged the pot of flowers, and ran upstairs on her feet.

Before going up to the second floor, she paused and whispered, "I'll definitely save it." ”

After saying that, he quickly went upstairs again.

Ji Xinyao was puzzled, thinking that Wen Qing would have such an elegant leisure and elegance to raise flowers herself, so she asked: "Grandpa, Wen Qing likes to raise flowers very much?" ”

"No, she just loves this one alone." The old man shook his head: "This pot of flowers is a few years ago after Nancy returned to China, Xiaoqing pestered him to go to the flower, bird and fish market, originally she wanted to buy a bird to come back to play, but she took a fancy to this pot of four-leaf flowers, Xiaoqing said that this is her lucky flower, Nancy bought her this pot of four-leaf flowers, and then these years, Xiaoqing herself learned to raise flowers and grass, and finally let this pot of things live for so many years, but in recent months, she has been sluggish, and it is estimated that she has forgotten to water for a long time. ”

Speaking of this, he suddenly chuckled: "Thief girl, don't you blame grandpa for always favoring Xiaoqing." ”

"Grandpa is a heart of fraternity, not a preference, after all, Wen Qing grew up with your own eyes, and it is no different from your own granddaughter, it is natural to treat her closer, how can I blame you." Xin Yao grinned.

In fact, when Wen Qing brought tea to her just now, Ji Xinyao knew what Wen Qing was thinking, but she didn't want to expose her openly in front of the old man, but she didn't expect that it was the old man who "reminded" Wen Qing, otherwise, if Wen Qing really kept giving her face, Ji Xinyao really wanted to hit her back directly.

*********************************************************************************************

When he returned to the room, Gu Nancy seemed to be standing on the balcony to answer the phone, but at the same time as Xin Yao entered the door, he also hung up the phone at the same time, looked back at her, and walked over with a smile.

"Did you accompany the old man to play chess?" His voice, as warm as ever, was also leisurely and light.

"How do you know I'm playing chess with the old man?"

"I saw it when I just went downstairs, but I answered the phone temporarily and turned back to my room." He smiled lightly.

Ji Xinyao took off the coat he was wearing, hung it aside, glanced at his mobile phone, and then raised his eyes to look at him again.

She wouldn't guess, not to mention that if it was Xiao Yu's call, she knew that he would definitely sue herself, but seeing that his eyes were calm, but he seemed to have something on her mind, she couldn't help but think of other aspects.

Since the phone call he answered this afternoon was Qin Muyan's......

"Did the old man and his mother know about Yufei's pregnancy?" She asked softly.

"They don't know yet, but they can't hide it anymore." Gu Nancy's voice was very calm, but her eyes were a little strict: "Yufei will come back tomorrow, and things will always have a result." ”

"Does Qin Muyan know?"

Gu Nancy's thin lips pursed slightly, Yan Sù's expression was slightly warmed because of her, and finally nodded slightly.

No wonder Qin Muyan hasn't appeared again for so long, no wonder he hasn't called her to tease her recently, and he hasn't appeared in front of her from time to time, it seems that he is really entangled in trivial matters.

But she is more worried about Yufei's situation now, calculating the time, Yufei's stomach should be almost five months, but no matter how she hides it, there are so many people coming and going around her, and it is impossible to lock herself in the house all day without seeing anyone, after all, she still can't hide it?

Can Yufei's child be saved? Qin Muyan's personality has always been uncertain, she can't be sure what choice he will make, she only hopes that he will never do anything to hurt Yufei......
