Xu Yunqing's question made the scene cold.

Old Mrs. Xu glanced at He Mian'er, who was bowing her head, took her son's hand, and said, "Come in, I'll tell you in detail." ”

He Mian'er and Sister-in-law Jiang naturally knew what Mrs. Xu would say, so they refused to go in and quietly retreated to the room.

"Mian'er, you are really bitter this time," the sister-in-law held He Mian'er's hand tightly, and she was happy for her from the bottom of her heart.

"This time, no matter what, you're going to have a child by your side." The sister-in-law sighed again and said, "You have to hurry, before the wife enters the door, there is a child of her own." ”

If He Mian'er was still a little looking forward to it just now, when she heard that Xu Yunqing was back, she asked Xie Wanqing's whereabouts for the first time, and she knew that it was a big mistake for her to get married.

And after listening to her sister-in-law's words, she completely sobered up.

Even if Xu Yunqing comes back, she is still a concubine.

Even if she gives birth to a child, she is just a concubine, and she will still be controlled by her mother in the future.

She lived in a simple environment back then, her father had always been only her mother, and her husband and wife were harmonious, so naturally no one told her this, so she naively thought that whether it was a concubine or a wife, as long as she could marry Xu Yunqing, she didn't care.

Now that she knows that Xu Yunqing hates herself, how could she give birth to a child as a concubine?

She remembered the letter in her bag, now that Xu Yunqing is back, where should she go in the future?

……

Xu Yunqing came out of her mother's room, looking at the bright and sunny outside, blue sky and white clouds, only to feel that her heart was full of bittersweet and bittersweet, mixed tastes.

However, in just three years, he has already experienced all the hardships of life, and he has also felt what it means to be cold in the world.

Stepping out of the threshold, he remembered what his mother had just said: "Son, Xie Wanqing is no longer in our Xu family. My mother knows that you are in love with Xie Wanqing, if there is no way, how can my mother write a letter of resignation for you. ”

"At that time, when the news of your accident came, I was immersed in pain every day, and I was too sick to get up, so I naturally neglected the backyard. About half a year later, one night, Xie Wanqing suddenly came to me and said that he would take a leave of absence for anything. ”

"I naturally refused, don't say that it is for my husband to keep filial piety for three years, at that time I thought that your bones were not cold, and your wife was going to leave the house to remarry, and spread it out, how else would we be in Xufu."

But she insisted on taking a leave of absence, and only after my repeated questioning did she admit that she was already a month pregnant. My son, such a woman, what do you still think about her? Does she deserve it? ”

"Who is it? Who is that man? He only remembered asking numbly.

"King Chen." After the mother finished speaking, the mother and son were silent.

King Chen is nearly forty years old, and he is the only brother of the emperor today, which can be said to be under one person and above ten thousand.

He got up and walked to He Mian'er's room, remembering what his mother had just said, he was impressed by He Mian'er's three years.

Pushing the door in, He Mian'er was tidying up the desk, looking at each other, and both of them felt a little embarrassed.

"I'll sleep first." Xu Yunqing walked straight to the bed, since he cut off the enemy's head, he has been whipping quickly, almost sleepless all the way, two days and two nights before he arrived in the capital, now it is the end of the strong bow, extremely tired.

He Mian'er covered him with a quilt very brightly, and saw that the man almost fell asleep immediately.

She stood at the head of the bed, looking at his peaceful sleeping face, and still couldn't believe that Xu Yunqing was really back.

Compared with three years ago, he has lost a lot of weight and darkened, and the exhaustion under his eyes is clearly visible.

Originally, he still had a bit of youthfulness on his face, but now he looks like a mature man.

She tiptoed out, and saw the old lady standing in the courtyard, looking at her suspiciously.

"He's asleep." He Mian'er explained awkwardly. Old lady, you are hungry, I will go to hot rice, and ask my sister-in-law to come and eat some too. “

He Mian'er turned around and walked towards the kitchen, but her heart was up and down.

Xu Yunqing is back, and her peaceful life is about to be broken.

After the meal, the old lady gave her advice as usual, which was nothing more than the words of having a child by her side.

Yes, for a concubine, children are the most important.

"Mian'er, your kindness to our Xu family, my old woman is in my heart. You can rest assured, as long as I am for a day, no one will bully you. The old lady swore and shook her hand.

It is impossible to say that He Mian'er does not have any waves in her heart, but what the future holds, she has no bottom in her heart.

"Mian'er, you also know that when the law is in the court, concubines cannot be turned into regulars. In any case, our Xu family will not treat you badly. ”

The old lady also thinks about her.

That's right, a concubine can't be turned into a regular one, and if you are a concubine for one day, you will be a concubine for life.

She also understood the old lady's subtext. Xu Yunqing will also have a wife, this person will definitely appear, it can be anyone, but it will not be her He Mian'er.

However, when she got married, didn't she already know about it? Why now, there is a faint pain in my heart.

For the so-called love, everyone betrayed their relatives and committed themselves to being concubines, and now He Mian'er, how much regret does he have?

Xu Yunqing slept until it was completely dark before waking up.

"Are you awake?" I saw He Mian'er in front of the desk glanced at him and said, "I'll go and bring you a hot meal." ”

Xu Yunqing was actually woken up by freezing, he touched the thin quilt, and his heart couldn't help but feel sour.

It's just spring, and He Mian'er is covered with such a thin quilt. He is a man, and he still feels that he is cold, not to mention that she is a weak woman.

I got up and got out of bed, and looked around, and there was only a bed and a cabinet, a large table, two benches, a basin, a wooden frame, and not even a spare mirror.

While pondering, He Mian'er entered the house with food.

"Let's wipe my face first," she dodged out quickly, handing him a warm cloth.

He did as he was told, and the meal was very light, a cup of tofu, two plates of side dishes, and a plate of fried pork from the farmhouse.

He knew that this meat was specially prepared for him.

"At home, there is really no extra silver, and the twenty taels in the afternoon were given to the father-in-law from the palace." For some reason, she began to explain to him.

He nodded, but did not speak.

To tell the truth, in the three years of Mobei, he also followed the people over there, eating meat in a big way, and never almost ate the food of his hometown.

This small dish, although the ingredients are single, but the taste is unique, and it is really delicious for someone like him who has not eaten it for a long time.

He didn't speak, and He Mian'er naturally couldn't help but think about it.

Xu Yunqing has always spoken little, but He Mian'er also knows that he should only be like this in front of her, if that person is ......

With mixed feelings in her heart for a while, she got up abruptly and saw Xu Yunqing's puzzled eyes.

"I'll go out and see the hot water boiling in the kitchen." For some reason, she explained to him again.
