Chapter 182: Collaboration with the Enemy (2)
One person for one life, listening to Zhang Xiaoman's sad tone, Qian Xiaoxiao was really sad, hugging Zhang Xiaoman's round bucket waist and rubbing gently, "Sister, don't be sad, you will be with us in the future, and we will live well." ”
Zhang Xiaoman smiled and didn't speak. Qian Xiaoxiao looked up to see Zhang Xiaoman's reaction, and suddenly saw several of her snow-white hairs, Qian Xiaoxiao suddenly reached out and touched it in disbelief, and said, "What is this?" ”
Zhang Xiaoman took a step back awkwardly and said to Qian Xiaoxiao: "Let's go into the house, I have something to tell you." ”
Qian Xiaoxiao was still immersed in the thought of seeing Zhang Xiaoman's gray hair, and she couldn't get out, and she didn't move in a daze.
Qi Jimin walked over and said softly to Qian Xiaoxiao: "Your sister said that she wanted to go in, is it possible that you are not welcome?" Don't hurry up and get your room ready. ”
Qian Xiaoxiao burst into tears, covered her mouth and ran into Ren's mansion with a cigarette.
Zhang Xiaoman didn't pay attention to the changes on her head, seeing Qian Xiaoxiao like this, she couldn't help but pull the long hair tied up at random to her chest, and sure enough, she found several gray hairs inside, Zhang Xiaoman looked at the white hair in a daze, and she didn't know why the hair turned white.
Qi Jimin looked at Zhang Xiaoman's sluggish appearance and was heartbroken, and hugged her, "It's okay, it's not much, as long as you are far away, you won't find it, you are still so good-looking, it doesn't affect the beauty of the general's wife at all." ”
Zhang Xiaoman picked up some black hair, and found a lot of white hair inside, she looked at the snow-white hair at a loss, and couldn't understand what was wrong with her.
No wonder Qi Jimin always sighed when he tied her hair at the inn. I haven't thought about what kind of hairstyle I want to tie her for a long time, and finally I chose a very ordinary sideburns similar to a ponytail, did I want to hide her gray hair? But no matter what, the white hair is always very conspicuous in the black hair, just like it doesn't matter if she hides her no matter what, a series of things still break her heart.
Zhang Xiaoman looked up and saw Qi Jimin's sadness that he couldn't hide, as well as the old doctor's worry, and pulled the corners of his mouth, "Let's go, let's go in first." ”
Money trotted halfway. Stop and stand for a long time. Reflexively ran back, and saw Zhang Xiaoman walking in with a smile on her face, her tears were even more uncontrollable, and she raised her hand to wipe her face. Crying and laughing, he greeted him. "Sister, don't blame me. I just thought of something unhappy and left you, and I will never do this again, don't be angry. Uh......"
While she hiccuped, she tried her best to smile at Zhang Xiaoman, Zhang Xiaoman was distressed and wiped her tears, "What are you crying about, your sister hasn't cried yet, you cry like this, doesn't it make my sister want to cry too?" ”
Qi Jimin thought that Zhang Xiaoman was silently crying and didn't make a sound of crying at all, it was indeed not crying, it was just tears, he wiped the corners of his eyes.
The old doctor lowered his head and sighed heavily.
"Sister......" Qian Xiaoxiao said sullenly, "I also want to have a child." ”
The atmosphere of sadness was broken in an instant.
Everyone looked at Qian Xiaoxiao and didn't understand what she was thinking in her heart, was this the time to say such things?
"Huh?" Zhang Xiaoman looked at Qian Xiaoxiao suspiciously, she didn't know what this stupid girl was thinking.
"I'm going to have a child too, I've thought about it, Xianggong doesn't like me, but it's enough for me to have one of his children." Qian Xiaoxiaodao, the tone of her voice was not at all like her usual, as if she suddenly looked away, "I know that his heart is not here, so I don't want to force it, I want to be his wife well, I don't expect too much for the rest, can we live peacefully for the rest of our lives?" ”
Zhang Xiaoman was speechless, and Qian Xiaoxiao's words entered her heart.
"Sister, the prime minister is going to take a concubine, do you think I should agree, so that he will give me a child?" Qian Xiaoxiao continued to chase Zhang Xiaoman and ask, she desperately hoped that Zhang Xiaoman could give her an answer, "In the past three years, every time I see Xianggong, I am thinking, how can I marry such a perfect man, and why should I always make him sad, I hope he can also smile at me, I can only make him sad, I also want to help him, but ......"
Qian Xiaoxiao cried, all the joy of seeing Zhang Xiaoman turned into nothing, and the bitterness of the past three years turned into tears and was irrepressibly cathartic.
Zhang Xiaoman sighed in her heart, hugged Qian Xiao and patted her on the back, "Silly girl, why are there always silly girls in this world." ”
Qi Jimin felt that Qian Xiaoxiao was simply looking for trouble, and Zhang Xiaoman was sad enough to be sad enough, but Qian Xiaoxiao spit bitterness at Zhang Xiaoman as soon as they met, did he think that Zhang Xiaoman had not endured enough? Isn't there enough gray hair in her?
"Xiaoxiao, we are very tired all the way, you let Xiaoman sit down and take a sip of water first, and then talk slowly." Qi Jimin stood beside Zhang Xiaoman and said to Qian Xiaoxiao very unhappily: "If you want to raise a child, at least you must be an adult first, otherwise it will only harm your child." ”
Zhang Xiaoman glanced at Qi Jimin disapprovingly, but he didn't expect Qian Xiaoxiao to be angry because of this sentence, and smiled embarrassedly at a few people again, and took Zhang Xiaoman to the pavilion.
Qian Xiaoxiao instructed Yahuan to go down to cook soup, poured a cup of tea for Qi Jimin and the old doctor, and asked the little girl to go down to tell Ren Lin, there are friends at home, if the county magistrate is nothing serious, don't come back so late tonight.
Zhang Xiaoman and the three listened silently, and finally understood why Qian Xiaoxiao was so uncontrollable.
The relationship between Ren Lin and Qian Xiaoxiao has not become better because of getting along day and night, and even the close contact has made Ren Lin resistant, he has always found excuses not to go home for three years, and sometimes refuses to see Qian Xiaoxiao when he comes back, Qian Xiaoxiao didn't understand before, if a man doesn't like you, you just hang out in front of his eyes all day long, and he won't remember you a little bit of beauty. Later, she finally understood that the relationship between the two was already very stiff.
Zhang Xiaoman didn't know what to say.
She always thought that Ren Lin and Qian Xiaoxiao were very suitable, but she didn't expect that they really couldn't get along, did she be the wrong matchmaker in the first place?
I haven't seen each other for three years, and Qian Xiaoxiao and Zhang Xiaoman have a lot to say. The two of them almost avoided talking about Qi Ziyun's affairs, and time passed quickly just by saying some happy things. When Ren Lin came back, Zhang Xiaoman was drinking the tonic soup made by Qian Xiaoxiao's subordinates, it tasted very good, she didn't feel nauseous and uncomfortable, so she drank a little more, and was comfortably lying on the beauty couch and stroking her stomach.
Qi Jimin was by Zhang Xiaoman's side, and the old doctor turned out to be Zhang Xiaoman and Qi Jimin's grandfather, so he was not cramped and uneasy, and he was much more tired than young people when he was old. He went to rest first.
Qian Xiaoxiao and Zhang Xiaoman bask in the sun in the gazebo. Qian Xiaoxiao deliberately placed a beauty in the pavilion, which was convenient for Zhang Xiaoman to hum comfortably at this time, Qi Jimin looked at her lazy appearance and relieved his heart, and the gloom on his face dissipated a lot.
When Ren Lin entered the house, he asked where Qian Xiaoxiao was. also knows where Zhang Xiaoman is. The moment he entered the pavilion and saw Zhang Xiaoman. The light in the eye blinded two people. Ren Lin walked to Zhang Xiaoman's side, directly ignored Zhang Xiaoman's big belly, and said in surprise: "You are finally here." ”
Don't say that Qian Xiaoxiao is not happy to listen to this. Even Qi Jimin felt that it was a bit too much, not to mention that Zhang Xiaoman immediately frowned, she looked at Ren Lin, who was much more stable, and said: "Lord Zhixian, Mrs. Zhixian has been looking at you all the time, should you say a few words to Mrs. first?" ”
A few people are not an ordinary relationship, some words are still clear, she doesn't want Qian Xiaoxiao to misunderstand, if a woman hides a thorn in her heart, sooner or later that thorn will become a knife, killing people invisibly.
Ren Lin turned to look at Qian Xiaoxiao, and said with a displeased face: "You are also here?" ”
What do you mean I'm here too? Qian Xiaoxiao's chest fluctuated violently with anger, if it weren't for Zhang Xiaoman opening the skylight to say something bright, she would never forgive her favorite sister for being the person in her husband's heart.
No wonder the husband is going to take a concubine recently, Qian Xiaoxiao has seen that little concubine, a slut in a brothel, if she doesn't look a little good, the most important thing is that she is at least six points like Zhang Xiaoman, where is she worth Qian Xiaoxiao's bother to deal with, she is the daughter of the richest man, and no one remembers her unique capital.
"Xianggong's words are so funny, can't I show up where my sister is?" As soon as Qian Xiaoxiao saw Ren Lin, almost everyone around her had long been ignored by her, she just wanted to sting that person and let him know that she would also make people hurt, instead of just tolerating him unconditionally.
Ren Lin heard what Qian Xiaoxiao said, his face was even more ugly, and he scolded: "You dare to say anything, do you still have a favorite sister in your heart?" It's faked, right? ”
Qian Xiaoxiao was even more angry, but she swallowed her anger and depression, glanced at Zhang Xiaoman, and said with a pale face: "Xianggong is back, my sister must have something to say to Xianggong, I'll go down first." ”
She glared at Ren Lin fiercely, and in Ren Lin's indifferent look, she stomped her foot and turned around with hatred.
Zhang Xiaoman and Qi Jimin glanced at each other and looked at Ren Lin intently.
Qian Xiaoxiao has already walked far away, and even dragged down a precious flower halfway down, a flower that can bloom in this season, just looking at it knows how precious it is, but she doesn't spare her hand at all, what's funny is Ren Lin's attitude, when he came in, he didn't leave a spare light to Qian Xiaoxiao, this time Qian Xiaoxiao left, but he kept looking at the back full of gunpowder and disappeared, then he turned to Zhang Xiaoman and Qi Jimin and said: "I'm sorry, I made you laugh, I'm still a child, I hope you don't care." ”
Zhang Xiaoman glanced at Ren Lin with a smile, and breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, it seemed that she was blindly worried.
Qi Jimin was not so easy to fool, and said: "I can't control the affairs between you, but no one is allowed to hurt Xiaoman, otherwise there is no need to say whether to forgive or not, the county magistrate himself has a spectrum." ”
"I'm sorry." Ren Lin hugged Qi Jimin again, and said: "Brother Qi is too worried, many people can only see their true faces clearly when they are together, I know who is worth cherishing." ”
"Hahaha," Qi Jimin laughed sarcastically three times, "I really can't adapt to becoming infatuated all of a sudden, I hope what you say is true, otherwise you won't be able to be a brother, Brother Ren." ”
The two had a confrontation, and they were finally able to speak well, Ren Lin sat on the wooden chair and looked at Zhang Xiaoman worriedly, and after thinking about it, he still said with emotion: "I didn't expect you to be pregnant, and now I don't know if it's good or bad." ”
"What do you mean?" Zhang Xiaoman sensitively sensed Ren Lin's words and stopped, he was a person who had direct contact with the imperial court, even if he couldn't know any news in the imperial court most directly, it was not difficult to find out what he wanted to know, after all, he had silver.
"It's not interesting, it's just that you should take care of yourself." Ren Lin said: "It seems that Brother Qi is already your brother, then I am also your brother, I still hope you remember some words, don't trust anyone, including your closest people." ”
At first glance, Zhang Xiaoman thought of Qi Ziyun, she didn't know if Ren Lin knew something, this matter had a lot to do with Qi Ziyun and her, Qi Ziyun must have played a very important role in it, otherwise Ren Lin would not have looked at her with such a compassionate gaze.
Zhang Xiaoman sat up cautiously and said, "What do you mean?" You've obviously misunderstood me, and I just ask if it's what I thought? ”
Ren Lin paused, looked at Zhang Xiaoman's serious eyes, and sighed: "You said yes, at least you thought of it yourself, then it proves that it is not nothing." ”
Is that really the case? Zhang Xiaoman was stunned, looking at the scenery in the distance and began to be in a daze.
Qi Jimin glared at Ren Lin unhappily, and looked at Zhang Xiaoman very worried, "What did you think of?" Do you want to say it and we'll think of a way for you? ”
"No, you don't." Zhang Xiaoman muttered to himself: "No one can help me, even if I ...... myself"
"What?" Qi Jimin didn't hear what Zhang Xiaoman said in the second half of the paragraph, so he leaned closer.
Zhang Xiaoman turned his head, first glanced at the expressionless Ren Lin, and said to Qi Jimin: "I'm tired, I want to go down and rest first." ”
Ren Lin immediately asked someone to take Zhang Xiaoman down, and instructed him not to leave Zhang Xiaoman's side for a moment, Zhang Xiaoman smiled, was she afraid that she would not think about it and would do something stupid? She won't, is it a baby, the mother will not be so confused, the mother still has you, and these friends around her, the mother will not leave you alone, the mother will survive. Zhang Xiaoman stroked her stomach and muttered silently in her heart.
Qi Jimin poured a cup of tea for Ren Lin, took a cup and drank it himself, and said, "Is there any news coming out?" ”
Ren Lin drank the tea slowly and didn't say a word.
"You won't hide it from us for the rest of your life, if you say it earlier, maybe we can think of a way in advance." Qi Jimin said.
"It's too late." Ren Lin glanced at the emaciated Qi Jimin and said: "Your family is a good example, the family with the ownership of the government and the opposition will not end well, not to mention that the Qi Wangfu has been defeated, General Qi is now more powerful than the King of Qi, how can the emperor let him be infinitely stronger, although this world is the world of the Qi family, but this is the Great Calendar Dynasty." ”
Qi Jimin, who was mentioned as sad, had a sad face, and said with a smile as if crying, "Then you mean that I don't interfere?" Do you know that my grandfather is still in prison, and he will be beheaded next spring, he has helped the world all his life, and he has never done anything wrong, so he can't die inexplicably in the means of fighting for fame and fortune, that is too wrong. ”
"Don't worry, things need to be considered in the long run, the recent political turmoil in the DPRK is very much, maybe this is a good time." Ren Lin saw Qi Jimin raise his head and look at him all of a sudden, and couldn't help but be a little strict, "You know how I came from here, there are some things that must be done justice." ”
Born in a powerful family, which family has no secrets, the two men tacitly touched the teacup, and they both saw in each other's eyes that they were ready to go.
In the evening, everyone got together for a reunion dinner, Zhang Xiaoman originally decided to buy a yard in Qingzhou, but first, she had no money, and secondly, Qian Xiaoxiao had to live in Renfu, Zhang Xiaoman saw that Ren's mansion was quite big, and the three of them couldn't occupy much space when they lived in, so they agreed, and Qian Xiaoxiao was crazy with joy.
"Sister, I will be the child's aunt when you give birth to a child in the future, I didn't expect me to be an aunt too!" Qian Xiaoxiao circled around Zhang Xiaoman, and was just about to pounce when she was stopped by Qi Jimin, and continued to pounce in a different direction, Ren Lin stopped her, she glared and sat back unwillingly.
