Chapter 217: The High Gate
After eating lunch absentmindedly, Liu Mingxuan went to Anlehou's Mansion with gifts.
Luo Yuqing didn't follow, but took Erniu to Cai Yixuan, saying that she wanted to make a set of sister outfits of the same color with her.
According to her, the statement of this sister costume was still passed from Nanjun, Sun Chen laughed secretly in her heart when she heard it, the first one in Nanjun in her mouth was called a sister outfit, and it seemed to be her own Pujia Pavilion.
Sun Chen didn't go with them, so he simply found a rickshaw by himself and asked the coachman to go around the capital.
……
Here, Liu Mingxuan arrived at Anle Houfu with an angry face, and asked the coachman to go to the concierge to report.
"It turns out that my uncle is here, please come in quickly, please come in quickly!" The porter reported in, and after a while, a smiling old man walked quickly, and Liu Mingxuan recognized him as the second head of the Anle Waiting Mansion, An Jiu.
"Mingxuan came suddenly, and asked his uncle Haihan for an abrupt place, but he suddenly heard from elsewhere that his sister was sick, and he was worried."
Liu Mingxuan, who was sitting in the flower hall of the Hou Mansion, said his intentions to An Le Hou An Jing directly.
An Jingcheng put down the teacup in his hand, "Jingshu has worked too hard during this time, and she can't afford to be sick, and the family has invited a doctor for her to diagnose and treat her, and after taking a few pairs of decoctions, there is no major problem, and the virtuous nephew doesn't have to worry." ”
"Mingxuan also knows that the Hou Mansion will not let her go, but we have lost our mother since we were young, and our father remarried, so it is not an exaggeration to say that we depend on each other, and I ask my uncle to understand Mingxuan's concern."
"What the virtuous nephew said is extremely true," An Jingcheng nodded in appreciation, "It's that I didn't think it through, and I didn't let people notify you when they found out that Jingshu was sick." ”
"Where, uncle, don't blame me for coming to the door to disturb me."
Liu Mingxuan knew that everything had to wait until he met his sister, and his attitude towards An Jingcheng, the head of the family, could be regarded as respectful.
When he followed the Hou Mansion to the courtyard where his sister lived, and saw Qin Jingshu who was pale and bedridden, he couldn't calm down anymore.
"What's going on?"
"Brother, cough, are you here?" When Qin Jingshu saw her brother, she wanted to get up immediately, but she didn't want to sit up because of her weakness, but because she suddenly got up and fell down, she made herself dizzy. But she didn't forget to wave back left and right, and the two brothers and sisters could also say something considerate.
"Who did this? An Zhigao didn't say anything? If An Zhigao was standing here at this moment, Liu Mingxuan felt that he should give him a punch without saying anything. At this moment, Qin Jingshu is like a delicate flower that has lost its moisture, making people see at a glance the devastation she has suffered. His face was not only pale and bloodless, but his forehead was still wrapped in a thick white cotton cloth, obviously injured!
"Brother, don't do this, it has nothing to do with Zhigao." Liu Mingxuan convicted her husband of the crime as soon as she came up, and Qin Jingshu disagreed. Even though she knew that her brother would say this, it was only because she felt sorry for herself.
"The girl is outgoing, this is not false at all, I haven't done anything about him, I'm afraid I'll bully him!" The younger sister opened her mouth to defend An Zhigao, which made Liu Mingxuan very dissatisfied, "If he can protect you wholeheartedly, how did you become like this?" How could it be so embarrassing? ”
I think that even if Liu Suchan treated her brothers and sisters harshly, she never had any wounds on her body, and the baby she had been holding in the palm of her hand looked so depressed when she arrived at her husband's house, which made Liu Mingxuan's heart very uncomfortable.
"Brother, Zhigao is also helpless, he is also distressed to see me like this, but he ......"
"There's nothing you can do about the perpetrator, right?" Liu Mingxuan saw his sister's acquiescence, and he was unwilling and a little hated that iron could not become steel, "What did I say at the beginning?" An Zhigao's wreck can't protect you at all, marrying him is like sending yourself to the wolf's den, if you don't listen, how can you suffer so much? ”
"But brother, I'm willing," Qin Jingshu interrupted him, "I'm willing to suffer with him." ”
After she said this, Liu Mingxuan's indignation in his heart 'banged', and suddenly there was no way to vent to her, and he was silent for a while before he stepped forward and hugged the thin body that was weeping and crying.
"Okay, let's not talk about him, let's talk about whose handwriting it is this time!"
Qin Jingshu knew that her brother would not take a break if he didn't figure things out, so she gently told him what had happened.
It turned out that An Lehou's situation was similar to Liu Mingxuan's father, who lost his wife early and married another.
The difference is that An Jingcheng married another room, which is the head of the flower girl who was born in the dust, and because of this, he once became a representative of romance. What she believes in this house-filling lady is not a smile like Liu Suchan, but a real-for-tat. For An Zhigao, she has never shown the slightest affection, nor has she ever cared about anything about him.
The same is true of the pair of children she gave birth to, thinking that An Zhigao will threaten his position in the future, and has always looked at him unpleasantly, and has tried all means to find trouble with him.
However, An Jingcheng and the old marquis and his wife who are still in the world are all resigned to it and never stop it, and An Zhigao, who has no power in the foreign family, can only bear all this silently.
An Zhigao grew up living under the oppression of his half-siblings. This also developed his character of being silent when encountering things, not fighting or grabbing. Outside, such a character will make people feel comfortable, willing to associate with him, and feel that he has a gentlemanly demeanor, and Qin Jingshu is also attracted because of this. But really living together, such a character can only be said to be a bun, or a soft bun that everyone can handle.
Originally, there was nothing wrong with being a man with his tail between his legs, at least he had a stable life. But the bad thing is that his character is too flattering in the eyes of the current emperor, and he said that An Lehou's hereditary title will be designated as his heir in the future.
Now their days will not be peaceful. First, An Zhigao was beaten inexplicably while walking on the road, but fortunately he met Luo Yuqing's second brother Luo Yudong to help, and later even sent him several families to protect his safety in the future.
In the autumn, Qin Jingshu had good news again, An Zhigao was going to have a future!
An Jingcheng knew from Lang Zhong that the fetus in her womb was likely to be a kid, and she was very happy to hold a banquet in the mansion, and the other party really couldn't sit still.
Qin Jingshu's daily meals have been secretly tested, and she has been drugged several times, and she will be very careful when she goes out, at least two maids will be supported, for fear that looking at a calm road, she will suddenly fall into a deep pit.
This time it was a blessing to say, someone poured water on the place where she passed, and the water froze again, because it was covered with a thin layer of soil, and she was not noticed at the first time. When she slipped, Qin Jingshu's forehead was broken by a stone on the road, but the child didn't have anything to do.
