Yamei was stunned. Tao Si rarely mentioned outside things to her, so as not to upset her. If he couldn't help but talk about it, it must have reached a very serious point.

"The last time I went home, I talked to Lao Qishen once. He said that there are some things that I don't have to worry about 61, and he has a number of what to do. Reassures me. I thought he was measured, and since he said so, he must have been planned. The news on the scene in the past few days is unfavorable to the Northwest Army, and there are many people who intercede, but they are all reprimanded by the commander. General Shi has already discussed with the chief many times because of this matter, which makes the chief very unhappy. Tonight, General Shi said that if he couldn't keep the seventh, he would rather resign. Tao Si said.

Yamei covered her mouth.

"I advised him not to. There are so many straw bales in the Central Army, and if he resigns, the chief and Cheng Laosan really have the heart to resist foreign enemies, and no one is available. Besides, if I resign, it should be me. I'm always going to go back and forth with Lao Qi. Tao Si looked at Yamei.

Yamei nodded hurriedly.

"Lao Qi didn't reply to my telegram, which made me scratch my head. If he can't get it right, he will throw a bomb at any time, and the whole world will be shocked. Tao Si said, and actually made a joke.

Yamei smiled, glared at him again, and said, "It's really not a bit of a shape." He didn't send a telegram to Jingyi. I think this time the two of them are simply more than lucky. Da"

"What's bad luck? If the two of them can break up, I'll cut off my head and sit on the bench for you!" Tao Si said.

Talking about jokes, the couple is really worried when they are worried, their mood is a little heavy, and they exchange views while walking...... It wasn't until Hu Niu'er came and said that Grandma Qishao had called 61 and said that she had arrived home, so that Miss and Uncle could rest assured that the two of them went back.

I didn't take a few steps before it rained.

It was raining again.

……

Inside the Cheng Mansion, Jingyi put down the earpiece and looked out the window, it was raining.

She stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, the raindrops splashing onto the glass and quickly rolling down and disappearing. She stood there watching the rain for a while, trying to turn away, when she saw the headlights flickering outside. She pushed open half of the window and looked out. Several cars drove past the front of the building and stopped at the east wing.

The landlord's wing of the building was brightly lit, and as soon as the car stopped, black umbrella flowers bloomed and waited there in a row.

She saw a few people coming out of the building, and her father was at the forefront. followed by Zhixi, and the caution of the ninth brother.

The father got into the car, but the ninth brother stayed there, and Cheng Xi held an umbrella for him. The cars drove away one after another, just as they had come. The rain seemed to be lighter, and the asphalt roadside was dark and shiny under the rain...... The silent courtyard didn't move except for the raindrops, including her standing here, and Shen Shen standing in the rain.

She took off her glasses and put them in the box.

She asked Qiu Wei to take out the things she brought back from Yamei and send them to Du's room, and she went upstairs first. Mother Liu was guarding the door of the room, and when she saw her, she called Miss Ten, saying that Miss Seven was accompanying Mrs. Inside.

Jingyi asked Liu's mother, how Du Shi was tonight. She was talking to Liu's mother when the door opened, and Zhiluan came out. He frowned and looked at her and said, "Why did you come back so late, my mother fell asleep waiting for you." Do you want to come in? ”

She guarded the door and asked Jingyi.

"Sleeping?" Jingyi asked. Zhiluan's temperament is really unbearable, but she still speaks patiently. It's just that I'm afraid of alarming Du's.

"Fell asleep." Zhiluan said.

Jingyi nodded and said, "Then I won't go in and come back tomorrow morning." She saw Qiu Wei coming over, and asked her to hand over the things to Mother Liu to collect, "The second young grandmother of the Tao family gave it to his wife, and it is useful to eat." After a while, if my wife wakes up and wants to eat, ask her if she wants it. ”

She whispered to Liu's mother, and Zhiluan looked at her with her arms crossed. Waiting for Liu's mother to go in, Zhiluan said: "The relationship between the second young grandmother of the Tao family and you is very good. ”

Zhiluan talked to Jing Yi, most of the time he was yin and yang, and Jing Yi didn't go to his heart, so he said, "It's good." Seventh sister, it's late......"

"The relationship is so good, and it doesn't necessarily go towards you. You might as well ask her, since she is on good terms with you, what do you have to do to cover up the Japanese woman he raised for Tao Xiang. That Japanese woman has a son, whether it is Tao Xiang or not, you can ask for yourself. Zhiluan said with a cold face.

Jingyi looked at her and asked, "Seventh Sister shouldn't be talking about Haruko Fujino, right?" ”

Zhiluan frowned, suddenly sneered, deliberately looked Jingyi up and down, and said, "You actually know...... It's no wonder that you acquiesced in this. ”

"That's none of his business." Jingyi said.

Zhiluan smiled and said, "Sure enough, it doesn't matter, then it couldn't be better." But I have also heard that you are very virtuous, and you have no objection to him taking a concubine. Is it possible that he is sneakily raising one outside just because he is a Japanese woman? ”

"I said, it has nothing to do with him!" Jing Yi said loudly.

Zhiluan saw her pink face flush, and it was rare for her to be so angry, so she was stunned. Jingyi realized that she was out of shape and fell silent. Zhiluan whispered: "That's a son, you haven't even been able to give birth to a daughter." Jingyi, if he did this kind of thing behind your back, you would still oppose your father and third brother for him and the Tao family...... Do you think it's worth it? I hate you very much, but Tao Xiang is even more disgusting if he is like this. ”

Clusters of flames flashed in Jing Yi's beautiful eyes, which were very fierce. Zhiluan saw her look like this, and naturally knew that what she said was a stab in Jingyi's sore spot. In the past, she might have felt happy, but today she didn't feel the slightest pleasure when she saw Jingyi for some reason.

"Jingyi?" Zhiluan called her.

Jingyi looked at her and said, "He won't do this to me." ”

Zhiluan was silent for a moment before saying, "That's the best." ”

Jingyi walked away.

She didn't say goodnight to Zhiluan.

Zhiluan sighed, waited for her to go back to the room and close the door, and wanted to turn around and leave, but the door behind her opened, and she saw Du Shi standing in the door with Liu's mother in her arms, she was frightened and shouted: "Mother! ”

Du Shi said in a calm voice, "You come in for me." ”

……

Jingyi went back to the room, and Qiu Wei, who came in after her, hurriedly opened the bed for her, but she sat on the edge of the bed, as if she didn't move.

Qiu Wei squatted down, took off her shoes, and raised her eyes to look at her.

Jingyi looked at her, and then saw Zhang's mother standing silently.

Seeing that Jingyi's expression was different, Mama Zhang looked at her and asked softly, "Is the young grandmother tired?" ”

Jingyi pressed her hand on the sheets. Fine cotton fabric, a little astringent. Her palms were sweaty, and for some reason, she felt that she was very weak at this time. She said I don't want to take a bath, so I'll sleep, and I'm very tired today.

Zhang's mother went to get her pajamas.

She looked in the mirror when she changed her pajamas, looked at the white figure in the mirror, took off the jewelry in the same way, and handed it to Qiu Wei.

"Am I getting fatter?" She asked softly. The curls fell, and the black curls were like strung copper coins, and like question marks one after another.

"Nope." Qiu Wei said softly. Where is it fat, I can't eat well and sleep restlessly, and I'm just thin and out of shape...... Qiu Wei also heard Zhiluan's words, and knew that Jingyi must be very sad at this time, and couldn't help but feel distressed and wanted to shed tears, and she had to endure it as much as she could.

Jingyi looked at her, smiled back, and said, "Look at you." ”

Her thin hands were close to her waist, and her thin pajamas were skin-clinging to her upper body. She touched her waist and abdomen, stopped there, and patted it gently. raised her eyes and saw that Zhang Ma and Qiu Wei were looking at her intently, and said, "It's really not too fat...... Qiu Wei, the Ninth Young Master hasn't rested yet, you go to him. If he doesn't have time, he will find Cheng Xi. Said I was going to send a telegram...... Tell my aunt that I want to stay at home for a few more days. Depending on the situation, the return date will be determined. ”

Qiu Wei agreed, and waited for Jingyi to write a note and hand it to her.

Jingyi let them go down and rest. Zhang's mother and Qiu Wei still waited for her to wash her face before leaving. She didn't hear their footsteps walking away, and she knew that they were a little uncomfortable with her.

She went to bed and lay down without turning off the lights. She didn't know when she was going to fall asleep, but she didn't want to be dark all around tonight......

The next morning, she dressed up refreshingly and went to Du's room to say hello. The third and fourth wives were also there, and when they saw her come in, their appearance was clean and bright, but their expressions were a little awkward. She was also a little sick because of her words last night, so she didn't see their faces. Seeing that the nurse brought the Duchenne medicine, she handed over warm water.

She avoided Du's gaze and whispered, "Mother, I have to go out today." The doctor is still coming at eight o'clock, right? I'll go out when the doctor is gone. ”

Du Shi looked at her and said, "If you have something, you can go out and do it." It's raining today, do you have to go? ”

"Hmm." Jing Yi smiled. After losing weight, the originally round little chin was sharper, and Du Shi raised his hand to pat her face. "When it's raining, you can't stop going out because of this."

"My lord walked in the heavy rain yesterday." The fourth lady said and looked at Jingyi.

Jingyi felt that her glance was particularly meaningful, and she couldn't help but pause in her heart and asked, "Where did my father go?" ”

"I went back to Shanghai overnight. It seems that the matter in the bank, the master rushed back to deal with it. The fourth lady said.

Jingyi thought to herself that when she saw Brother Jiu sending her father out last night, she would go back to Shanghai. Her father said that there was a problem at the moment, and Zhiyan also reminded her that it seemed that there was a real ...... It's not like she's not worried. It is certainly not a trivial matter to be able to catch a father.

Seeing that she was silent, Du Shi said: "Your father and brothers have something to do outside, let's not worry about it." Let's go down and eat. ”

The third and fourth wives both got up, and Jingyi went out together.

Seeing that they went out first, Du Shi took Jingyi's hand and said, "Ignore those gossips." ”

"Mother." Jingyi immediately understood, her and Zhiluan's words last night must have been heard by her mother-in-law, "Sister and I are too loud, have you quarreled?" ”

Du Shi waved his hand, looked at Jingyi and said, "This matter is properly handled." Yi'er, you have to have more energy. My uncle is good, and it is inevitable that he will be popular. is young again, and some social contacts are even more uneven. He treats you well first. Don't worry about chasing after the wind and shadows; There is something really wrong, as long as he is willing to hide it from you, you might as well turn a blind eye. ”

"Mother, I made a note of it." Jingyi agreed.

Du Shi knew that Jingyi would not be awkward in her heart, but fortunately, she agreed. She let Jingyi out, and she was stunned for a long time. Mother Liu opened the curtains, she looked at the heavy rain outside, and said softly: "It's raining so hard." ”

"Yes, ma'am. Yesterday, Miss Ten told a joke to herself, saying that she shouldn't be a dragon girl, why did it rain wherever she went. Liu's mother said.

Du Shi sighed and said: "It's hard for this child, I don't know what the suffering is like, I just don't say anything." This character is the same as her mother. Fortunately, she is more cheerful, otherwise wouldn't she have to fall into trouble? ”

"Miss Ten is also a little like Mrs. Yours." Liu's mother said.

"It's really nothing good like me." Du Shi said that he was silent.

When Jingyi looked at her, maybe she wanted to ask, she told her to have strength, how could she endure this?

She couldn't know that Jingyi could endure it for a while, and she could endure it for a lifetime, unless she was dead to Tao Xiang's love for men and women...... Otherwise, she suffers.

"This kid can't see it." She sighed and asked Liu's mother to close the window, "I'm upset under this rain." ”

Mother Liu passed, and the window was only opened a little gap, but Miss Ten got up early and came in, saying that she was changing the air and opened the window.

When she closed the window, she looked down to see a car parked in front of the building, and it was the doctor......

Jingyi went downstairs just as the doctor who came to Du Shi for a follow-up visit came in.

She greeted the doctor and asked for him to be taken up. When I entered the restaurant, I went early, and saw that everyone at the table was already seated, but Zhishen was not there. She looked at Hui An.

Hui An said softly: "Zhishen doesn't use breakfast with us." ”

"Are you still busy?" Zhiluan took the bread and buttered it, and asked with a frown. She's a bit vicious.

Hui An nodded.

Jingyi only took a glass of milk to drink. Hui An reminded her to ask if she wanted something else to eat, and she shook her head. Zhiluan looked at her and said, "It's time not to eat it." ”

"Miss Seven, this morning's croissant is well baked and crispy." The fourth lady quietly took the croissant basket and handed it to Zhiluan.

Jingyi drank the milk and looked at the coercion in the gentle eyes of the fourth wife-this fourth wife of my father is sometimes quite dignified...... Sure enough, under her gaze, Zhiluan took a croissant and stopped talking. The fourth lady turned to look at Jingyi and motioned to her. Jingyi shook her head and said, "I really don't have an appetite." ”

"If you're not feeling well, let the doctor see it. It's very convenient. The fourth lady said.
