Chapter 21: The Unruly Wind (24)

Jingyi smiled and asked, "Can you buy the shoes you like?" ”

Fei Faxian smiled and said, "I bought it." But the guy said that the shoes were also liked by the Micisstao, but let me take them first. It's not good, so I'll pass it on to Missistao. ”

Jingyi saw her and motioned for the guy to bring the pair of shoes to her, and hurriedly said, "It's just a try, and it's just a matter of not having one." You're welcome ...... Misfee."

The two humbled up, Fei Faxian insisted on giving it to Jingyi, and Jingyi insisted on refusing. Mrs. Shi looked at it, but laughed, and said, "If you two continue like this, there will be one less business in the store." If you want me to say, Miss Fei often wears such bright colors, but it doesn't show anything, but Jingyi you wear it, which is really amazing. In this case, Miss Fei is kind, you might as well accept it generously. ”

As soon as she said this, Fei Faxian smiled and looked at Jingyi. It would be bad for Jingyi to refuse, so she smiled and said, "Thank you for Miesfeken's love." Da"

Fei Faxian saw that she accepted it, so she seemed to be satisfied, and without waiting for her to say anything more, she took the maid and left.

Mrs. Shi smiled: "She is refreshing, and you are also generous, the best of both worlds." He"

Jing Yi smiled and looked at the pair of aqua red shoes - how could she wear them...... The car downstairs was ticking, she was standing by the window, looking out, Shi Shaokang got out of the car and opened the door for Fei Faxian. Fei Faxian smiled at him, looked back upstairs, saw Jingyi, and waved his hand to get into the car. Shi Shaokang didn't look up, and left with Fei Faxian in the car...... Jingyi handed the shoes to the guy and said, "Wrap them for me." ”

Mrs. Shi also bought a few pairs of her favorite, and then went out of the shoe store with Jingyi.

Jingyi sent Mrs. Shi back to her accommodation and had dinner with her before leaving. When leaving, there happened to be a car to send Shi Jingchang back. Jingyi stayed for another quarter of an hour, listening to General Shi talk about what he had seen and heard about going to Qiyun Camp today. Because Tao Shengchuan was still living in the hospital, she went around to visit the provincial hospital. When she arrived at the hospital, she found that Tao Xiang's entourage was also here, and she knew that Tao Xiang was going to accompany General Shi to the Qiyun camp today. He didn't personally send General Shi back, obviously came here directly.

She got out of the car and was about to go in, but Ma Xingjian came over and reminded her to go later.

She frowned and asked, "What?" ”

Ma Xingjian said: "Seven young people have something to talk to the old handsome. ”

Jingyi looked at him, since she said that, of course she was talking about things that were inconvenient for her to listen to.

She hesitated for a moment, looked up at the window of the ward with the lights on the upper floor, the curtains hung down, and a faint light came out.

"Seventh young grandmother, Mrs. asked you to come in quickly." The figure at the door flashed, and the big girl Ke'er in front of Mrs. Tao came out.

Jing Yi answered and walked towards the door. When I entered the door, I saw that Mrs. Tao had just come down from the upper floor, and was talking to the housekeeper Ha Deguang, and when I saw her, I nodded.

"Grandma Seven." Ha Deguang also hurriedly said hello before saying to Mrs. Tao: "As Mrs. tells you." ”

"Go ahead." Mrs. Tao sent Hade Guang away to look at Jingyi, "The seventh is talking to the master about things." Have you had dinner? ”

"Yes." Jingyi agreed, and then briefly talked about today's itinerary.

Mrs. Tao listened, as if she was a little absent-minded. Jing Yi saw it and stopped at the right time. Seeing that she was quiet, Mrs. Tao listened to the movement upstairs, and heard footsteps across the floor. Jing Yi could tell it was Tao Xiang. She intuitively felt that he was in a bad mood at this time, and his footsteps seemed to be losing his temper...... To the father? She kept her head down. Inexplicably worried.

The upstairs soon fell silent, and after a while, the stairs remembered, and heard Tao Xiang commanding people, very loudly but echoing, and for a while I couldn't hear what he was saying.

Jingyi looked at her mother-in-law.

Mrs. Tao's face was calm.

Tao Xiang came down, and Jing Yi looked at him again, as if he had just been angry.

"Mother." Tao Xiang came over and glanced at Jing Yi.

Mrs. Tao endured it for a while before she said, "The master is sick, can't you be patient for a while and discuss things with him peacefully?" ”

Tao Xiang was silent.

Mrs. Tao said irritably: "I don't know what is going on outside. But don't make the master unhappy, or I won't be able to spare you. ”

"Yes, Mother." Tao Xiang agreed.

It can be seen that his words are insincere, but Mrs. Tao is also helpless. I wanted to say something and saw Jingyi in a blink of an eye, so I said, "Let Ke'er accompany you to visit the master." ”

Jingyi got up and followed Ke'er upstairs.

Ke'er knocked on the door for her, and it was Shi Quan who came to open the door.

Shi Quan reported to Tao Shengchuan, please Jingyi go in.

Tao Shengchuan stood in front of the window with his hands in his hands.

Jing Yi just wanted to open her mouth to call her father, but when she looked at his tall figure, she was stunned - she almost thought that what she saw was Tao Xiang. Not long ago, in a certain ward, Tao Xiang was also standing in front of the window...... Tao Shengchuan heard the movement, turned around and saw Jingyi, and nodded gently. He was a little thinner than he had been a while ago, and he looked a little haggard. But his eyes are very bright, his spirit is very good, and he is still as vigorous and powerful as an old pine.

"Jingyi is here?" He smiled and looked at the girl in a light-colored dress, and walked towards him, saluted, and called him father.

"Yes, father." Jingyi came closer, "How is Father feeling today?" ”

Tao Shengchuan smiled, motioned for Jingyi to sit down and speak, and said, "Okay." The doctor is not good. ”

Jingyi looked at her father-in-law's face with a childlike smile, smiled too, and said, "Is my father not listening to the doctor?" ”

"How do you know?" Tao Shengchuan pretended to be surprised, "Their opinions are always contrary to mine. You can't ignore the doctor's words, but you can't listen to them all. ”

"Father really. Since you are a patient, you must listen to the doctor. Don't just listen, listen to it all. Jingyi smiled.

She looked at her father-in-law and laughed, there were deep wrinkles on her cheeks, which showed that she was much thinner, and she couldn't help but feel a little sad.

Tao Shengchuan saw her mood, smiled more happily, and said, "You kid, you must be talking to the doctor." ”

"Father, what did the doctor say?" Jingyi asked, "If the doctor doesn't say it right, I won't help the doctor speak." ”

Tao Shengchuan said with a smile: "It's not those words, but in reverse, there is not a day when I am not persuaded to go to Shanghai for medical treatment." Is it possible that going to Shanghai will cure all diseases? ”

When Jing Yi heard this, her heart sank.

If it was a minor illness, Dr. LΓΌbeck would not have asked to go to Shanghai.

As soon as she was in a hurry, her face turned red, and she was just about to ask what was wrong, Tao Shengchuan looked at the door and said, "What the hell are you doing, come in." ”

Jing Yi hurriedly turned her head and saw Tao Xiang coming in from outside, her face was still flat, but she couldn't hide her embarrassment. She looked at her father-in-law again, although he said that he was angry, his tone was not harsh, so it could be seen that he didn't really want to reprimand his son.

"It's almost time, you don't have to be here. Take your mother home quickly. Tao Shengchuan's tone was ordering.

Jingyi looked at Tao Xiang. He didn't speak, just nodded and motioned for her to go out with him.

Jingyi didn't dare to say much, for fear that the father and son would be unpleasant, so she had to say goodbye to Tao Shengchuan. Without taking two steps, she pulled Tao Xiang and asked, "What the hell is going on?" Is there something wrong with my father? Have you talked to Dr. LΓΌbeck? What did he say? I heard my father say that he insisted that his father go to Shanghai......"

Tao Xiang stood down the corridor and looked at her. There was an anxious look on her face.

"The doctor suspects that my father has something bad growing in his lungs." Tao Xiang said.

Jingyi was stunned and didn't speak immediately.

Tao Xiang looked at her expression and asked, "You think so too?" ”

"Judging from some of the symptoms, it is possible. But maybe it's just that the lung problems have accumulated over time and are not recoverable. Jingyi said softly and looked at Tao Xiang, "The doctor told my father about the preliminary diagnosis, but he still resolutely disagreed to go to Shanghai for further diagnosis and treatment, right?" ”

Tao Xiang looked very bad on his face and nodded.

Jing Yi took a breath and said, "Dr. LΓΌbeck may be able to operate here." The conditions here are not as good as those in Shanghai and Beiping, after all, the doctors and nurses there are more neat...... When will Dr. Besson arrive? ”

"It's only here in a day or two." Tao Xiang said.

Jingyi held his hand and whispered, "Don't worry. Dr. Besson arrived and asked him to make a diagnosis. If...... It's never too late to decide. ”

Tao Xiang didn't say anything for a while.

Jingyi stopped for a moment, there was no one around, she hugged him softly, and then said, "Is it because of this that you lost your temper with your father?" It was so loud that I could hear it outside. You're so bold...... Counsel with you. Father was always reasonable. What about grandma and mother? Don't know yet, right? ”

"Father won't even let you tell you." Tao Xiang seemed to be very irritable.

Jingyi walked to the stairs with him, looked downstairs, and said, "Then hide it from grandma first...... But I don't think grandma and aunt can hide it. I got up early to say hello and listened to them, and I was very suspicious. ”

"How?" Tao Xiang frowned.

Jingyi paused before saying, "It's nothing special, it's just very anxious." ”

Tao Xiao knew that she hadn't said everything, and slowly went downstairs. Jing Yi thought to herself that she had almost said it just now...... She got up early and went to Xuanrui Hall, and her aunts and grandmothers were there. In the past few days, the topic has always been inseparable from the illness of the father-in-law, and this morning I saw the Qilin'er sent by Fushun to ask for peace, and the third aunt and grandmother immediately said - the seventh daughter-in-law is not happy to conceive a child, we are old bones, and we still want to see the seventh child alive...... Her heart throbbed as she listened. But she was embarrassed to say this to Tao Xiang.

Tao Xiang and Jingyi went out, and saw Mrs. Tao walking slowly in the open space in front of the building with the support of Ke'er...... Ke'er noticed it first and reminded Mrs. Tao. She turned to look at Tao Xiang and Jingyi, listened to what they said, and motioned for them to go back first. Tao Xiang also wanted to persuade her, but she waved her hand and said she didn't have to.

"It's better to stay here." Mrs. Tao said, looking at Jingyi, "Jingyi has been more concerned about the affairs of the family in the past two days. ”

Jing Yi hurriedly agreed. When he left with Tao Xiang, he looked back at Mrs. Tao again. She was still looking at them. Jingyi had an inexplicably complicated feeling in her heart, but she couldn't say it. These days, she has no time to stop and think about it.

Tao Xiang also looked at where her mother was standing.

He didn't say anything to Jingyi. Jingyi was used to his silence, so she accompanied him to the house and went to the old grandmother to have a look first. It was a little cold in the morning and evening, and Tao Xiang didn't talk to her grandmother for long, so she sneezed twice.

Old Madam Tao looked at her and told her to take care of her body before she said, "Eryi wrote to ask about your father's body. She couldn't come back for a while, and she was very worried. It seems that when I reply to the letter, I should talk to her about it, and when it is appropriate, I should take a look with my uncle. ”

"The eighth sister is far away, and it's not easy to go back and forth." Jingyi said softly.

"It's just far away...... As a last resort, of course, there is no need to let them come. Old Madam Tao said, looked at Jingyi, and smiled slightly, "I'm not afraid now." ”

Tao Xiang listened, and his heart was not good. He hadn't eaten dinner yet, so he left Xuanrui Hall with Jingyi by saying that he was hungry. Back in Langyuan, the dinner prepared by Zhang's mother was brought out, and Jingyi herself had already eaten it, and she accompanied Tao Xiang to use it.

"Eighth sister can't come back for the time being, right?" Jingyi asked in a low voice. She caught a fish, picking at the spines little by little. Tao Xiang loves fish, this fish has many bones, he is impatient to eat, and he doesn't even touch it...... "I saw the news from the newspaper." I always feel that the recent movements of the white system are a bit unpredictable. I don't understand big things, and when I think of the eighth sister, I'm always worried. It's good that nothing happens to my brother-in-law and the family. ”

Tao Xiang watched her carefully remove the fish bones one by one and bring the plate to him before raising her eyes to look at him. He took a sip of white wine and said, "Even Duan Fengxiao is probably angry with Nanjing." Needless to say, others. ”

Jingyi paused. Tao Xiang said this, which was equivalent to answering the question she had just asked. To say that she was not shocked is a fake. Duan Fengxiao and the third brother are like brothers. Because of the relationship between the third brother, Duan Fengxiao was very supportive of Nanjing in the local faction. And he was also a hot figure at one time...... Her heart was in turmoil as she watched him eat the fish unhurriedly.

"Pastoral ......"

"Suppressing bandits, yes; Military power is wanted-whoever wants to move a finger of the Northwest Army and want to take the Northwest Army away from me, I will not agree. Tao Xiao said, taking a sip of the remaining wine in the wine glass.

The wine glass was placed on the table, and only a little residual liquor remained in the transparent wine glass.

Jingyi watched and didn't speak.
