I didn't come home until midnight. The whole family knew his deeds in their hearts, but they just hid it from Mrs. He. A month ago, he was becoming more and more unscrupulous, and he didn't return home every night. The second master didn't know how many times he beat him, but it didn't work. In reality, the whole of Heijo knows it. The second young master of the He family. Hooked on a female playwright in the theater, and has gotten along. Since he met Qiao Siwan, He Yusheng suddenly changed as a person, staying at home every day and not going out, and he had to sit at the old lady's side every three or five o'clock. I hope to meet this big woman. In his opinion, the ninth-rate drama can't be compared with the beautiful and vulgar colleagues.

The second lady saw this situation, "There is something else in the S that is not clear." She was very opposed at first, because Qiao Siwan was an orphan girl who came to take refuge, helpless, rootless, and rootless, how could she want such a son and wife, and then she thought about it, a down-and-out aristocratic lady is much better than a play, plus the He family is rich. Ben is not greedy for his wife's dowry, it is good to be talented and good-looking, she muttered so. The more I thought about it, the more reliable it became, and my attitude towards Qiao Siwan became eager.

At dawn on this day, Qiao Siwan accompanied Lin Yuanxin to walk in the small flower garden in the backyard, and He Yusheng opened up the Yahuan of Bixi Building and hid behind the rockery in the morning. Catch a glimpse of them coming. Immediately found out without moving. They were taken aback.

Qiao Siwan's face turned cold. Whispered, "Cousin." Let's go back. ”

He Yusheng stopped them shamelessly: "Miss Qiao, I just want to understand you, and I don't have any bad intentions." ”

Every time she sees such a gentleman, Qiao Siwan will think of Cao Rong at the beginning. couldn't help but feel disgusted in his heart, and was about to speak, but suddenly heard a clear voice say: "Yusheng, you are so arrogant!" Miss Joe is a guest of grandmother, how can you be so rude! ”

"Hmm!" He Yusheng snorted. "You don't care about my business!"

He Jiaru stared at He Yusheng. The tone is not very good. "I'm your sister, how can I not care about you!"

He Yusheng saw that He Jiaru stopped in front of Qiao Siwan. Then he became impatient: "You care so much! I just passed by and said a few words to Miss Qiao. ”

He Jiaru's big eyes stared straight at He Yusheng: "You haven't gone out these days, hasn't the sun come out in the west?" If you are looking for excuses, you should also find one that is a little convincing. To be serious, you just look at other people's beauty and have bad intentions! ”

"What do you say? What did you say? He Yusheng roared in her face: "How can I have bad intentions, do you have your turn to speak at home!" ”

"Ask me, ask yourself!" He Jiaru said indignantly: "The whole family is up and down, except for one grandmother who doesn't know it, everyone knows it!" You report to the theater every day, and you think the whole family is dumb? Do you think that the people of Heijo are all blind people? Colleagues are in the middle of a short life. You're still here! You'll rely on your grandmother to hurt you. It's too big and not too small! You do it again. So I told my dad to go! ，，

The second lady loves her son, but the second master is a serious person, He Yusheng's face turned white, he didn't dare to say anything more, and walked quickly. Leaving Qiao Siwan and Lin Yuanxin, they stared at He Jiaru in almost surprise.

He Jiaru turned around. The smile on his face was a little embarrassed: "I'm sorry, he's not a thug, he's just spoiled, and he doesn't know how thick the sky is." ”

Such an environment has happened more than once, Qiao Siwan is very indifferent to He Yusheng, but she is not very kind and alienated from his sister He Jiaru, because after inquiring, she found that He Jiaru is really a very innocent and cute girl, and she is a little out of place with other people in the He family. When she occasionally saw Qiao Siwan's calligraphy, she admired it very much, and she had to come to learn from Qiao Siwan every day. In reality, He Jiaru's own words are not bad. Qiao Simei praised her for her talent, and He Jiaru also became more and more energetic the more she learned.

Two months passed in a hurry, and the sky gradually warmed up. Lin Yuanxin's due date is in mid-March, at the end of mid-spring. Her body was already very uncomfortable. The He family had already invited the nurse and midwife to be at home. The old lady of the He family talked all day long asking Lin Yuanxin to choose a good name for the child first, and Lin Yuanxin took dozens of names. Pick and choose over there. Always take the idea of not necessarily having an idea.

Qiao Siwan knew. Lin Yuanxin didn't have an idea, but was waiting for Jiang Yan. I only regret the Cangzhou riots. They didn't get any information about the emperor's eldest grandson at all. The closer she got to give birth, the more depressed Lin Yuanxin's mood became. Qiao Siwan was worried, so she often accompanied her to walk in the back flower garden. It's just that Qiao Siwan will be pestered by He Jiaru, so she can only let Hongyu accompany her.

At daylight this day, when Lin Yuanxin passed by the water pavilion in the flower garden, he heard someone playing the flute inside. The flute is very melodious to hear. She was bewildered by the sound of the flute. I stood in the waterfront and listened for a long time. Until the whistle stopped. She was shocked and turned back to say goodbye. Before he could go away, he saw a young man come out with his flute. The two of them looked at each other, and they couldn't help but be stunned. Lin Yuanxin said a little crampedly: "I heard the sound of the flute." And he couldn't help but stand still! Hate you. What a beautiful blow! ”

"Really?" The man was born very peaceful, but he had a pair of very soft eyes, and his eyes sparkled. There is an unexpected joy because someone is there to hear. He glanced at Lin Yuanxin and found that her bulging belly was hidden under her cloak. couldn't help but be even more surprised, "Are you the Mrs. Xiao they said?" ”

Because Lin Yuanxin was alone when she found out, the maids were behind her to study and guess that she was a widow. Lin Yuanxin didn't know this. She just thought that it was not very good in front of the eyes of the man. The man smiled, "I'm He Yuran." ”

He is the eldest son of the He family.

"If you listen to the flute of porridge, I will blow it to you in the future!" He said naturally. After saying that, he couldn't help answering her for a moment. The eyes were full of care. He asked very gently, "You." Now that you're pregnant, don't be too sad. It's not very good for children. ”

Lin Yuanxin had never seen such an affectionate person, let alone talked to a man like this, and it was not very good for a while. "I'm fine." ”

"Are you really okay?" He asked. "You know. I'm a doctor if you have anything uncomfortable. Tell me. I can help. He read the question under her eyes. I thought the answer to the needs was clear. "I didn't have fun doing business since I was a kid. On the contrary, it is very fun to practice medicine. Only then did he run with Shi Yan. I can heal wounds and heal many ailments. I admit it. I have no way of healing the wounds of the people.

He said. It's the pain of bereavement, and it's a pity that this is a big misunderstanding. It's just that in the eyes of ordinary people, who would leave their pregnant wives behind? They speculate like this, and they are also sophisticated.

Lin Yuanxin listened to his last words. My heart jumped, and I was extremely shaken. She raised her eyes and glanced at him quickly, for a moment. I don't know how to pick it up. She had such an expression. It made him wake up suddenly, and he spoke too frankly. Too unthinking. Probably, she'd think it's a collision! He saw that she was silent, and there was some confusion.

"I'm talking too much!" He said, "That's why I need to say these things as a doctor," he said.

"Nope. none"; She hurriedly responded, "Doctor's parents, you have good intentions. ”

That's when it happened. The other side of the flower garden. Qiao Siwan said from afar: "Cousin! ”

Lin Yuanxin was stunned for a moment, nodded casually to He Yuran, and turned around to say goodbye.

He Yuran looked at her back from a distance, showing a slight look of regret.

"What is Brother He looking at?" Suddenly, Jiang Chi's voice sounded behind him.

He Yuran was taken aback. Jiang Chi followed his vision into the distance and caught a glimpse of Qiao Siwan helping Lin Yuanxin back. couldn't help frowning slightly, "Miss Qiao is indeed very beautiful, isn't she?" ”

He Yuran was surprised: "Miss Qiao? What are you talking about? ”

This time, it was Jiang Chi's turn to be frightened, and he looked at He Yuran for a while. I don't notice the slightest sign of lying.

He Yuran finally understood what he was talking about, and said with a smile: "I'm just sorry for Mrs. Please." She is such a gentle woman, pregnant, but so helpless. ”。”

"You rarely care so much about a woman," Jiang Chi thought for a while, and then said very frankly and calmly.

He Yuran smiled slightly: "Late." You and I have understood for five years. How I am. You should be clear. When I was seven years old, I was just an illegitimate child, a man of unknown origin, and the prosperity of the He family. It's something that can't be beaten with eight poles! Its time. I can only rely on my mother for my life. She was poor. But he treated me very well. He looked at the sky outside the corridor longingly, and said nostalgically: "Seriously, although those days are laborious, they are very happy times!" ”

Jiang Chi continuously knew that He Yuran was not Mao's biological son, but the main mother raised the son born by the concubine

There are many part-time jobs under his name, which are not new, but I don't know that he has such a secret secret.

"People say I don't have a father. It's a wild seed, and my mother doesn't know how much humiliation she endured for this. Later, my mother fell ill and died, and my husband took me in and asked me to study medicine with him. It's a pity that not long after, Mao's son died, and my father came to the door to recognize me. He took me back to the He family, made me Mao's son, and practiced my business. Intervene in the miracle of the He family's family. I don't have porridge in business, nor do I have a centrifugal detachment from porridge, so I frequently flee from myself. Escape from this home. He lifted his eyes. Seriously. said very earnestly: "I talked to you so much, but I just want you to inquire, I have no ill intentions towards that Mrs. Xiao." It's just that I feel a little bit about my origin. Please don't worry. ”

Jiang Chi smiled slightly: "I know,

That night, He Yuran was in the flower garden. Playing his flute. Lin Yuanxin was in her room, listening to the sound of the flute, and the sound of the flute stopped abruptly as the night was late. Lin Yuanxin listened for a while. Do not hear the flute revival. She couldn't help but sigh faintly, if something was lost.

Early the next morning. The He family came to Qiao Siwan excitedly and told her that the big study in Pingcheng was selling a rare red silk inkstone, and she had to take Qiao Siwan to buy it together.

Red silk inkstone is produced in Qingzhou Black Mountain and Linqu Lao Cui Gu. It is a kind of stone for making inkstone women. There are many literati and writers who highly praise it with poetry and poetry, and promote it as the first famous inkstone. , the reserves of red silk stone are very small. The ore layer is relatively thin, and the mining is difficult, and there is no red silk stone production in the Great Calendar Dynasty. At this time, a red silk inkstone suddenly appeared. It will arouse the attention of many people.

Qiao Siwan glanced at Lin Yuanxin and said with a smile: "Is my cousin going with us?" ”

Lin Yuanxin shook his head: "No, you guys go." I'll just rest at home. ”

Lin Yuanxin has a big belly. The high and low carriages are indeed very disadvantageous, Qiao Siwan nodded. So he asked Hongyu to accompany her at home.

When I arrived at the study, as soon as the shopkeeper saw that it was the carriage of the He family, he immediately greeted him and said with a smile: "Miss He, the inkstone you want is specially reserved for you, please come in." ”

Qiao Siwan and He Jiaru entered the study all the way, and the shopkeeper took out the red silk inkstone with steady wings. "Look! I want to keep it for a hundred years! ”

He Jiaru looked at it, handed the inkstone to Qiao Siwan, and asked her to browse.

The shopkeeper smiled. In the middle of speaking, suddenly a person lifted the curtain from inside and came out. Catching a glimpse of Qiao Siwan, she suddenly showed a happy expression: "Miss Qiao! What a coincidence! ”
