Chapter 52: Powerlessness
Xu Chaoheng listened to the whole thing in silence, lowering his eyes and not knowing what he was thinking.
Although he doesn't hate his stepfather as much as his sister, he doesn't like it either.
There is no superfluous affection for him, and he is only treated as an ordinary elder.
When he was a child, he was not sensible, and every time his father-in-law came to visit him, he would bring delicious snacks, and he was naturally very happy.
But later he found that his father-in-law was unhappy every time he came, and gradually he was not close to his father-in-law, and the snacks that his father-in-law bought couldn't make him happy.
Sister is unhappy, so he doesn't want it.
"Cousin, have you been feeling better lately?" Fu Yanjing asked with concern.
Xu Chaoheng only saw him today, and he was still very unfamiliar with him.
But thinking that Sister A and Aunt He were very kind to him, he still nodded and said, "It's much better, thank you cousin." ”
Fu Yanjing bowed slightly: "Otherwise, my cousin will move to my mansion, and I will take care of your body." ”
Xu Chaoheng glanced at the girl when she heard this, this kind of thing still has to be decided by Sister A.
Xu Chao's eyes flashed slightly, and he looked at Fu Yanjing fixedly: "Cousin is willing to let Ah Heng move to Fu's mansion?" ”
"Naturally, you are my family."
This is exactly what Xu Chaodui wants. She stood up and saluted and thanked: "Thank you, cousin, Chao Du is grateful." ”
The atmosphere here gradually warmed up, and on the other side, after listening to the maidservant's report, Yang asked lightly, "Did she really take the kid to the Rejuvenation Medical Hall?" ”
The ordinary-looking maid is called yes.
Yang stroked the peony-patterned white jade bracelet on his hand and muttered to himself: "The medical saint treats the kid alone, does he know the cheap girl, or does he see the face of King Lin?" ”
Fenghua, who was respectfully guarding the side, answered: "Madam, the maid inquired that this year, the saint went to the summer resort, and the medical saint also went with him." Thinking that they should have known each other, maybe it was also for the sake of King Lin's face that they agreed to see a doctor for the little son. ”
When Yang heard this, a cunning flashed in her eyes, and she instructed the maidservant: "You go to Wuliu Lane, Changting Street, to find someone......
……
Xu Chaodui is in a good mood today, Ah Heng has moved over and his cousin to help take care of him, and his body will definitely get better day by day.
Tomorrow, she has to inform Changxing to wait, and then send Ah Heng over to settle down, and she will be relieved.
The night was thin, and a light rain fell in the air.
Xu Chaodui lay on the couch after bathing, blinking, staring at the hollow incense ball under the gauze tent.
Today, my cousin proposed to take her and Ah Heng back to her grandfather's house for a while, and I was really worried.
She had never met anyone from her grandfather's family, and she didn't know what their temperament was like, and whether they would like her and her brother......
Over the years, the girl's heart has become extremely sensitive, and only by wrapping herself in indifference can she try her best to ignore the inner uneasiness and cowardice.
Knock Knock Knock –
There was an unhurried knock on the door.
Before she could get up, the door had been pushed open. Li Hanchen came over with a brocade quilt in his arms.
"Why are you here?" She sat up from the bed.
After returning from Xiangyun Mountain, the two returned to their original state of sleeping in separate rooms.
Li Hanchen didn't come, so she didn't ask.
She didn't know that Li Hanchen couldn't fall asleep at night, just thinking about how to successfully move to her Bangchun House without being kicked out.
Tonight, while it was raining, he came.
The man walked to the couch and put down the brocade quilt, looked out the window and said with a serious face: "It's raining tonight, I'm afraid you'll be cold, so I'll warm you up." ”
After speaking, he hurriedly added: "For the sake of being so intimate for the husband, the lady doesn't want to leave for the husband, is it feasible?" ”
Seeing his pitiful appearance, Xu Chaodui moved his nest inside, and acquiesced in allowing him to stay overnight.
Li Hanchen raised his lips and smiled, his dimples deep.
Twilight is slowly accepting him.
The candlelight on the lotus lamps in the house flickered, and was blown by the night wind.
In silence, he quietly reached out and wrapped the person in the corner in his arms, and said very intimately: "I think you are a little cold, so it will not be cold." ”
He found that Twilight always liked to burrow into the quilt and curl up in the thick of her sleep, even in summer.
How many times he was afraid of smothering her, and carefully lifted the quilt to expose her head, but she felt shallow, and would wake up at the slightest movement.
Only by sleeping with her in her arms can she be stopped from doing so.
"I heard that you went to Changxing Houfu today?"
"Hmm. I went to find Ah Heng, and then my cousin. She told the truth.
"Do you want to seek medical treatment for Chaoheng?"
"Yes. In addition to seeking medical treatment, there is also recognition of relatives. ”
"I remember, you said you were going to tell me about you."
"Do you really want to know?"
"I want to know everything about you."
"I'll tell you as long as you want."
Li Hanchen listened to her quietly, and his heart was mixed.
Twilight's unhappy childhood is caused by the irresponsible behavior of the older generation.
Changxing waited for the old horseman, and even his own children could not be recognized for the sake of fame.
Be a slave to fame for the rest of your life.
"Do you know why you hate him so much? That's because, on the night of my mother's death, he ruthlessly drove me out of the waiting house under the threat of the Yang family, and after all, he didn't go to see my mother for the last time. ”
That night, heavy rain poured and thunder rolled.
Her mother was lying on the couch, her eyes were not as gentle as before, and she looked out the window and shed tears.
She saw Aunt He standing in front of her mother's bed and constantly wiping her tears, so choked that she couldn't hear what she was saying.
The younger brother was afraid of his mother's appearance, so he squatted in the corner and cried quietly.
Later, my mother called her over, gently stroked her face, and said with tears: "My mother is most sorry for you and my brother." In the future, there will be no mother, and Du'er will take care of her brother, do you know? ”
Crying overflowed from her lips, and she cried breathlessly: "Mother, you wait for Du'er...... Twilight went to find her father, and when her mother saw her father, she would be cured......"
After speaking, he ignored his mother's call, and ran to the Houfu with all his strength under the heavy rain and thunder.
She knew that her mother was waiting for her mother.
braved the heavy rain to knock on the door of the Hou Mansion and cried to call Changxinghou, but the Yang family was forced to die.
said that if Changxinghou went to see her mother, she would wait at home for Changxinghou to collect her body!
The barefoot is not afraid to wear shoes, and he has to spread the matter of his outer room all over the capital.
Xiao Chaodui never knew that his loving and kind father on weekdays had such a ruthless side.
He cried and went back to the room with Yang, and let Yang order the servants to cover her mouth and send her back to Wuyi Lane.
She almost fell and went home.
At that time, my mother only breathed a sigh of relief, and when she came back covered in mud, she was so angry that she couldn't even speak.
She trembled and stayed in front of the bed crying to comfort her mother: "Daddy went to ask for a doctor...... Mother...... Daddy will be coming soon......"
My mother was no longer able to wipe away her tears, but just advised: "It's a pity that my mother can't grow up with you...... In the future, Du'er will listen to Aunt He's words and take good care of her younger brother...... Grow up obediently, and your mother will always be with you and your brother in a place you can't see......"
She recounted the experience in a calm tone, as if she were telling someone else's story.
Li Hanchen never thought that she would have such a heart-wrenching experience, and she was suddenly extremely distressed.
At this time, I only heard the girl say: "You don't have to sympathize with me, who hasn't had a little hardship in life?" ”
Li Hanchen hugged her tightly and sighed softly: "I just feel sorry for you." ”
