Chapter 42: Trivia

When Qin Daochuan returned to the capital, half of the winter moon had passed, and the old lady and He Shiqing both went out of the city to greet them, but Ruoshu was nowhere to be seen.

After Qin Daochuan went to the military department to deliver, he returned to the mansion, He Shiqing was already waiting outside the second gate, it turned out that the palace had come to the will, and the palace set up a banquet that night to catch the wind for Qin Daochuan.

On the way to the car, He Shiqing opened the curtain from time to time to peek at Qin Daochuan, in the past, he would respond to her from time to time, and occasionally had a smiling face, but today he never paid attention to her, He Shiqing was uneasy.

Today's banquet was obtained by her begging the concubine for a long time, and in the past three years, only by going to various banquets and drinks, she felt that she was Qin Daochuan's wife, the only wife.

Qin Daochuan rode on the horse, thinking in his heart, in the past three years, Ruoshu had never appeared with him in the name of husband and wife, and he felt that it was nothing, anyway, he wanted to reconcile. After the round house, I realized that her name had never appeared on it, whether it was the holy decree in the palace or the invitations exchanged in the palace. No one mentioned it in the casual conversation, as if she didn't exist.

I remembered the side gate that she had opened in the right courtyard with all her ideas, the rebuilt courtyard wall, the separate stable, and the side door for her to enter and exit. Every place reflects her undisguised rejection, her rejection of the Qin Mansion, her rejection of him...

Will this soon-to-be-born baby change her?

Qin Daochuan was not sure, he only felt that he should do something, but he didn't know where to start.

He Shiqing felt Qin Daochuan's loss, and when he was still angry with her because of that incident, he cautiously laughed with him, and helped him deal with the congratulations of people from all walks of life as always.

Back in the house, Qin Daochuan went back to the study alone on the grounds of fatigue, He Shiqing looked at his back, took a deep breath, and told herself that the coming day was long, time could dilute everything, and she could wait.

The mother-in-law guarding the door in the right courtyard was a little surprised by Qin Daochuan's late-night visit, but only at the moment when the door was opened, she immediately went to pay tribute to Aunt Lan.

Aunt Lan hurriedly got up and dressed, afraid that Lan Xuan and Xia Mo, who were keeping vigil, would not be able to serve without experience, so she changed shifts with Lan Xuan.

Qin Daochuan walked into the stepping bed, Ruoshu was already asleep, no different from the first time, reaching out to touch her belly in the quilt, feeling like holding a ball in her arms.

Qin Daochuan looked at it blankly for a long time, lying beside her, if he breathed evenly and slept deeply, Qin Daochuan gently leaned his head over, smelling a fragrance that seemed to be absent, very calming.

When Qin Daochuan opened his eyes again, the sky was already bright, and he found that he was next to Ruoshu's head, with one hand around her stomach, and he had a good night's sleep.

Qin Daochuan slept for the first time since he was enlightened, but he didn't want to get up, he just wanted to lie here quietly and be stunned for a while.

When Ruoshu opened his eyes, he found that Qin Daochuan was looking at her with his arms propped up, turned around, and fell asleep.

Qin Daochuan guessed that she was annoyed with him because of the grounding, and said with a smile: "Now that I'm back, if you want to go out, I'll accompany you." ”

Ruoshu turned around and was about to sit up, but he knew that his body was heavy, so he had to support it with his hands, so he only turned his face to him and said, "I'm like this now, it's difficult to climb into the car, can I get out?!" ”

Qin Daochuan helped her up, at first glance, Ruoshu was small, but now she had a straight stomach, and her whole person was round, so she couldn't help laughing.

Ruoshu became more and more annoyed, and only called Aunt Lan, she wanted to get up.

Qin Daochuan knew that he was unreasonable, so he got up, and while dressing, he watched Aunt Lan and Lan Zhi help her up and get out of bed.

Aunt Lan instructed Lan Xuan to wait for Qin Daochuan to wash, Qin Daochuan said no, said to Ruoshu to take care of it, and went back to the study.

Qin Daochuan returned home, and Ruoshu's grounding was finally over.

The rebuilt courtyard walls and side gates have long been repaired.

Ruoshu took advantage of the fact that it was still early, left the house, and went straight to Lu's coat shop.

Seeing her getting out of the car with difficulty holding her stomach, Lu Siye said worriedly: "Young owner, even if you tell us to do something, now that you are heavy, you must not miss it." ”

Ruoshu said: "Suffocate me, come out and relax." ”

Lu Siye said: "If the young owner wants to relax, you can go to Lu Erye, there was a new singer in the hall yesterday, and the songwriters are good." ”

Ruoshu said: "I didn't think about it for a while, the guild hall has been expanded, and I should go and see it." ”

When Ruoshu arrived, Second Master Lu was waiting at the back door early and said, "Young Dongjia, the private room on the third floor has been kept!" In this expansion, a separate aisle has been built, which can lead directly to the staircase where the backyard cooks serve food, and there is no need to pass through the second floor to enter and exit, which is very private. ”

Ruoshu nodded, went up to the third floor, and pushed open the window to see the hall and a high platform below.

Second Master Lu said: "Two games a day, lunch and night. The young owner came by coincidence, just in time to watch the lunch. ”

Ruoshu said: "Okay, I'll take a look at the excitement today." ”

At the lunchtime, I saw a young man in a pea-green robe, sitting in the center of the high platform with a stringed piano, playing a tune, melodious tunes, singing tactfully, listening carefully, as if telling a story.

Ruoshu said: "He looks quite handsome. ”

Aunt Lan hurriedly answered: "Young owner, be cautious!" ”

Ruoshu stuck out his tongue, Lan Xuan snickered and looked down to see the excitement, and suddenly saw Qin Dong's figure.

said: "Shaodong, the general is probably also here." ”

Ruoshu didn't seem to hear it.

In the private room on the third floor, the Seventh Prince asked Qin Daochuan to pick up the wind for him.

"How? How is Jia Fang Club now? The Seventh Prince asked.

Qin Daochuan only rebuilt the Dao Hall, and all the materials were transported by the Qin family's dart shop, and he already knew about it, but the effect was only seen today.

He said, "Not bad." ”

The Seventh Prince said, "I'm really curious about what kind of person the owner of this hall is? I heard that more and more branch libraries are opening, and every place is full of friends. ”

Qin Daochuan took a sip of tea, looked at the musicians singing loose songs on the stage, shook his head, and did not speak.

The Seventh Prince continued: "It's not too much to make money every day! ”

When Qin Daochuan heard this, he smiled and said, "The family of businessmen earns hard-earned money. ”

The Seventh Prince became interested when he heard this, "You have never said such compassionate words before, Daochuan, you have changed." ”

Qin Daochuan heard that he was joking, but he was reluctant to lead the topic to Ruoshu, and said: "I am returning to Beijing this time, passing by Juntun, the Qin family can still protect itself, and nothing else... ”

Shaking his head, "I can't bear to look at it." ”

The Seventh Prince wanted to open his mouth to say something, but he held back and only sighed.

After thinking about it for a long time, he said: "The Qin family is an old lady who is righteous, how can others have such good luck." In the final analysis, it is because the treasury is empty, and there have been disasters in recent years, and the people's livelihood harvest is not good. ”

Qin Daochuan only drank tea and didn't answer.

The Seventh Prince looked at the musicians on the high platform and said, "I don't know where I found it, it's very eye-catching." ”

Qin Daochuan glanced at it again in a blink of an eye, his face expressionless.

The Seventh Prince smiled and toasted him with a cup of tea.

After breaking up with the Seventh Prince, Qin Daochuan was at the door, and when he got on the horse, he saw Lan Xuan walking over with food in his arms not far away, and he didn't notice them, and went directly into the alley next to him.

Qin Daochuan was depressed all of a sudden, needless to say, Ruoshu must be upstairs.
