Chapter 04: Qiaolian's Evasion
The dΓ©cor in the bedrooms is classic and elegant
There is a log table outside the bedroom, and on the wooden table is a scented incense, which is faintly scented with flowers, making the whole room smell of lavender.
Qiao Lian stepped forward, cut off the burning incense, and said, "Madam, the child has just been born, so don't light this kind of fragrance in the house." β
Jin Miaojia was lying on the bed, with two newborn baby boys next to her, the baby boy was wrapped in a futon, revealing a red face, his eyes were closed, but he was sticking out his tongue in the fabric next to the sweet, looking very cute!
Jin Miaojiaqiao's face was full of maternal love, and her eyes looked at the children in front of her dotingly.
Jin Miaojia chuckled dotingly: "Look at this little guy, he just ate it for a while, and now he is looking for food again." β
"Mother, I'll call the nurse over."
"Slow down."
Nian Nian hummed, jumped off the wooden bed to find the nurse, and as soon as she stepped out of the screen, she bumped into the person who made her dream every day.
"Daddy!"
Nian Nian cheered and opened his arms to hug.
Feng Yihai hugged Niannian with a doting face, and said, "I haven't seen you for more than half a year, why have you grown half a head taller." β
"Daddy, my mother gave birth to two younger brothers, my younger brother is hungry, I will call the nurse."
"Just let the next person go."
As he spoke, Feng Yihai walked behind the screen with his thoughts.
After only beating Feng Yihai into the house, Qiao Lian stood in an inconspicuous corner, bowing her head and shoulders, Feng Yihai found that there were people around her, and he didn't see what she looked like, so he said: "You go and call the nurse." β
Qiao Lian almost hung her head on the ground, listened to him call herself, nodded her head busily, and ran out as soon as she slipped away.
Seeing this, Feng Yihai frowned slightly, but he didn't have time to pay attention to her, so he crossed the screen and saw Jin Miaojia, who was dreaming of Risi, and the newborn who had just been born for three days.
"Miaojia."
"Husband."
Jin Miaojia wanted to get up, but was stopped by Feng Yihai: "You just gave birth, lie down and rest." β
Jin Miaojia hadn't seen him for a long time, and all the emotions in her heart came up when she saw him, and her heart was happy and sad.
"You haven't been home for more than half a year, and I gave birth to a baby in the old house, and you're not there."
Feng Yihai put Niannian on the side of the bed, took Jin Miaojia's hand, and said apologetically: "Over the years, you have worked hard." β
As he spoke, he dropped a kiss on her forehead.
Jin Miaojia blushed and urged him to his chest: "The child is still there." β
The thoughts on the side have long been commonplace, and when they saw this scene, they dragged their feet and smirked.
Feng Yihai went to look at the two little babies on the bed, small people, red faces, noses and eyes can't tell what looks like a father and a mother, in short...... One word, ugly!
"Daddy, look at the younger brothers if they look like earthworms."
"Earthworms?!"
Feng Yihai smiled helplessly: "My brothers are so cute, where are they like earthworms?" β
Nian Nian snorted: "It's as ugly as an earthworm!" β
The child's innocent and cute appearance made Feng Yihai and Jin Miaojia smile similarly.
"By the way, you've been wandering around for so long, have you found your sister's whereabouts?"
Feng Yihai urged his eyes to cover up the loss and sadness under his eyes with thick eyelashes.
"Not yet."
Other words...... As long as the emperor doesn't give up, he will still send him to look around, his sister has not returned for a day, and his husband can only go home on holidays for a year.
Over the years, although their husband and wife have a good relationship, they have also gathered less and separated more, because Feng Yihai's more duty is to look for his long-lost sister everywhere.
Although he has not shown the decadence of the emperor over the years, she knows in her heart that his heart is like a knife.
Jin Miaojia held Feng Yihai's hand and gave him a silent comfort, and suddenly thought of something, she said: "By the way, when I came to the old house, I was fortunate to have Sister Qiaolian here, so that I could deliver the baby in time, so that our mother and daughter are safe, you will see Qiaolian later, you must thank her well." β
Feng Yihai nodded and said, "Okay." β
In this matter, Qiaolian, who was standing outside the door 'eavesdropping', had mixed emotions in her heart, she fled from the wind house in a panic, and did not forget to tell her subordinates to ask the nurse to nurse before parting.
After leaving the Wind House, she went straight back to Lao Li's house, Li Hong was chopping firewood at home, and when she saw Qiaolian coming back, she said: "Qiaolian is back, and she went to the Wind House to help?" β
Qiao Lian hummed.
"You, you should go out for a walk more, staying at home all day will be boring, by the way, there is no vegetable oil at home, your godmother took a small meat bag to the next village to visit relatives, I am giving you warm medicine, you go to the market to buy some vegetable oil back."
Qiao Lian sighed, and then touched her nose and went to the market to buy vegetable oil.
There is still a long distance from the village to the market, you need to take a car to go, if you walk over, according to Qiaolian's sick body, most of them will stop eating halfway through.
Qiaolian took Uncle Wang's wooden cart and staggered all the way to the market......
On the way, Qiao Lian recalled the scene she had just seen in the Wind House, curled up and leaned against the dry grass, in a daze, not knowing what she was thinking......
When Uncle Wang arrived at the market, he said, "Little lady Qiaolian, it's here." β
"Hey, thank you, Uncle Wang." Qiao Lian got out of the car and gave him a copper plate.
Uncle Wang happily took it: "Folks, take a ride and return the copper plate, what's polite." β
"Uncle Wang, I have to go back to buy some things, and you will wait for me at the city gate after you finish your business."
"Holo."
Qiaolian went to the market to buy goods, but habitually covered her face with a square scarf, and when she passed by the notice wall, her eyes couldn't help but see the emperor's list posted on the notice, which described the portrait of the queen, and I didn't know that the painter painted it, the level was very poor, and the queen was so ugly......
It is written on the royal list;
Inform the world that the queen Chu fell into the river because of a misstep, and her life and death are unknown, if you find any traces of the queen, please inform the local county prefect......
Finally, there is a bounty on the royal list, and the royal reward for finding the whereabouts of the queen is 10 million taels!
There were a few passers-by in front of the poster
They all pointed at it and said: "This notice has been posted for five years, the wind and rain have rotted I don't know how many times, every time the wind blows the county order, it will be replaced with a new one, this has been a full five years, if the queen is still alive, she would have returned to the palace a long time ago, and the emperor has not died yet." β
"If I want to say, if I am the queen and don't go back, watching my husband and other women talk to me all day long, even if I am not washed to death by the river, I will be angry to death!"
"Shhh, you dare to say this kind of nonsense!"
"No, didn't the emperor dismiss the three thousand beauties in the harem for the queen before, how long has it been, the original promise is no longer there, and four concubines have been taken, and I don't know how many concubines I want to marry after that, no wonder the queen doesn't go back!"
"He is the emperor, what does it matter to you if he marries a few concubines, he is talking nonsense, beware of losing his head."
Qiao Lian listened to their discussion, watched them walk together, and after a while, turned around and left.
She carried a wooden basket, and after beating some vegetable oil at the market, she bought some lard, pork, and some cloth.
I purchased a lot of things, and it was quite laborious to move.
Qiao Lian arrived at a restaurant, sat in the corner, ordered a dish, and waited for Uncle Wang at the county gate after she was ready to go to the county gate.
She rarely went out in recent years, but whenever she went out, she would take a square scarf to the market to buy.
Now that she was eating, she took off the square towel and quickly put the food in her mouth and chewed it.
This county is the nearest Zhou County of Heping Village, although Zhou County is not very rich, but there are many businessmen who come and go, and there are many people who wander from outside to call Huazi!
When Qiaolian was eating hard, a sneaky man named Hanako was hanging around the restaurant, and the design of the restaurant was that the gate was facing the street, so Hanako walked around the gate a few times and was blasted out by the shopkeeper.
It was called Hanako who didn't want to eat, and didn't ask for money, but just swayed around the restaurant, and couldn't shake at the gate, so he went to a few nearby windows and looked inside.
This look was shocking!
This is!!!
Hanako pulled out a portrait from her bosom, and the woman in the portrait was very similar to the woman sitting in a restaurant eating.
Hanako rubbed her eyes and wanted to confirm again, but when she turned around, she didn't see the woman's figure, and only the woman was left with the rest of the meal in the distance.
Hanako wanted to confirm it again, but when the shopkeeper saw it, he immediately took the tree pole to catch him.
"Where did you come from, call Hanako, don't disturb others doing business here."
When Qiaolian came out, she saw that the shopkeeper was chasing a person named Hanako, and she didn't meddle with anything, so she walked to the city gate with her things.
She was masked, but Hanako remembered her clothes and followed her.
"Qiaolian, you've bought your things."
Uncle Wang did a good job, and after a cart of straw was processed, he waited for her at the county gate.
Qiao Lian hummed, put the purchased things on the car, and said, "Thank you, Uncle Wang, for waiting for me." β
"You're welcome, sit down, let's go!"
"Holo."
Qiaolian sat in the carriage, and Uncle Wang drove the carriage away from Zhou County quickly.
Behind him, Hanako chased all the way, and he was out of breath after chasing, but he couldn't catch up with the four-legged horse with one leg, so he could only chase half of the horse and give up.
After resting for a while, he asked Hanako to run to Yang County.
He ran to a ruined temple on the outskirts of Yang County and said to the leader of the man named Hanako: "Helper, I see the person in this portrait." β
When Hanako, who had been replaced as the leader of the gang, heard this, he took the portrait in his hand and exclaimed, "This is true! β
"It's true, I can see it clearly!"
"And where did you find out where she lives?"
"She rode away, and I couldn't catch up with the horse, so I lost it."
"Oh, that's a pity."
"However, I think the direction they go should be in the direction of Heping Village or Luhua Village, as long as they look in either direction, they will definitely be able to find her."
"Okay, you send your brothers to the vicinity of the two villages to investigate, and I will notify the alliance leader immediately."
"Yes!"
After that, the two named Hanako went their separate ways.
Not far away, Qiaolian, who thought she was 'hiding' well, had already revealed her identity in the dark......
After returning to Heping Village, Qiao Lian thanked Uncle Wang and prepared to go to Lao Li's house. As soon as I walked to the door, I saw Feng Yihai's figure at the door of the house.
Qiao Lian was so frightened that she almost screamed, and the next moment she was busy hiding.
She combed her ears and heard her godfather say: "Feng Gongzi, Qiaolian went to the market to buy something, it is estimated that she will not come back for a while, this matter of delivering a child is also the duty of people, there is no need to be so polite." β
Feng Yihai heard that she was not at home, so he could only helplessly say: "Okay, after all, it is the benefactor who saved my wife and children, and when Miss Qiaolian comes back, I will come to visit." β
Li Hong saw that he was polite and polite, and he had a new understanding of the definition of a capitalist, so he hurriedly saluted: "Let you run for nothing." β
"It doesn't matter." After Feng Yihai thanked him, he turned around and left.
It wasn't until after he left that Qiao Lian walked home slowly.
"Godfather, I'm back."
She put her things on the wooden table in the living room.
"Qiaolian is back, the temperature of the medicine is better, come and drink it."
"Okay."
Qiao Lian drank a bowl of medicine and said, "Godfather, is the little meat bun back tonight?" β
"Your godmother, they won't be back until tomorrow morning."
"I'm tired of walking, so I'll go back to my room and rest first."
"Okay."
"Later, if someone comes to me, they will say that I am asleep, and no one will be seen except the little meat bun."
"Got it."
Seeing that he was still busy chopping wood, Qiao Lian went back to her room, closed the doors and windows and hid on the bed in a daze......
