Chapter 867: Who is the child's father?
The days passed, Xinyue was like a stone sinking into the sea, there was no news at all, Gong Chunhong had patted his chest in front of Jia Tong before, and he was embarrassed now, for fear that Jia Tong would think that he would not do anything, so he specially asked him to drink.
Jia Tong shook his head, "I quit drinking." ”
Gong Chunhong was taken aback, Lord Jia is famous for his love of wine, and he can't finish if he doesn't get drunk on lively occasions, he doesn't believe it, "Adults really quit drinking?" ”
"Well, the emperor told me to drink it," Jia Tong said, "After all, the emperor's order is difficult to disobey." Speaking of this, he found that it was far away, and frowned unhappily, "How long has it been, how have you found it?" ”
Gong Chunhong said, "Xia Guan really tried his best, and he confessed on the day he got the letter, and all the city gates were strictly checked, and the adults said that the girl was as beautiful as a fairy, so everyone who was a little bit of a posture was stopped, so that the people thought that the top was going to be drafted again, and several neighbors came to ask me for news." There is no news that the girl is out of the city, she should still be in the city, I have looked for all the inns in Lin'an, no, and I also called the mayors of the major alleys to ask, to see if there are any new faces recently, but still no, my lord, you say, did she go into the cracks in the ground? ”
There is never good news, Jia Tong is used to it, that is, Green Lotus has become silent, every day when he returns home, he is deserted, the husband and wife are relatively speechless, he sometimes has nothing to say, Green Lotus does not wait to see him at all, rolls his eyes and turns around and leaves.
He was left out in the cold at home, and he was afraid that something would really happen to Xinyue, after all, it had been so long, and he had been thinking blindly recently, he couldn't find it for so long, was the person gone? Maybe she came out of the house that day and looked for a short time in a no-man's land, but he deliberately paid attention to the murder case of the yamen below, and there was no corpse as beautiful as a fairy, so he finally had a little comfort.
"Look for it again," he said, "Xinyue has the heart to avoid us, and the inn has to be searched again and again, and it has been almost two months, and we must see people alive and corpses when we die." ”
On days when there is no news, I always feel that time flies very slowly, in fact, even Chunwei has passed, this time it was Ning Jiu who went, Jia Tong stayed in the city, and he really didn't have the heart to care about those, I heard that General Bai took the lead again this year and hunted a tiger to make a leather jacket for his wife.
After this month, it will be early summer, and I want to eat brown and row a dragon boat, and I am always very energetic about these things, but I don't ask at all this year, Ning Jiu saw him like this, and persuaded him, and said it, Jia Tong was like a frosted autumn eggplant, always listless.
Lord Ning had no choice but to take time out of his busy schedule to ask, "How is it, is there still no news?" ”
Jia Tong shook his head, "No, Gong Chunhong has been looking for it, and there is no news at all." ”
Ning Jiu asked carefully and said, "I haven't hit the city gate, I haven't bought a house in the inn, and I haven't bought a house to settle down, there is only one possibility, in whose house did I settle down." ”
Jia Tong said, "There are so many households in Lin'an City, you can't search from house to house, this matter can't be said to be loud, and the impact is not good if it is big." ”
Ning Jiu snorted, "You still know that the impact is not good, even the emperor has been trusted, what are you afraid of, look for it with great fanfare." ”
"By no means," Jia Tong said, "Xinyue was already avoiding me, and I was afraid that if I pushed her too hard, it would not be good for the dog to jump off the wall in a hurry." ”
Ning Jiu thought for a while, "Have you looked for the Miscellaneous Courtyard?" That kind of place is mixed with fish and dragons, and it is very mobile, but it is easy to settle down and evade hunting. ”
Jia Tong frowned and said, "That kind of dirty place, where people live are street vendors, Xinyue shouldn't go there, she is a person who loves cleanliness." ”
Ning Jiu convinced him, "Let's look for it, the more you think she's not there, maybe it's there?" ”
When Jia Tong heard this, it made sense, and he personally went to patrol the Yamen of the Fifth Battalion, and asked Gong Chunhong to focus on investigating the miscellaneous courtyard, but he must not startle the snake.
On the third day, the good news came, and sure enough, he found a girl of unknown origin who looked like a fairy, which was exactly what Jia Tong described, and the news reached Jia Tong's ears, he didn't even take it properly, so he asked Ning Jiu for leave, and hurried over.
Because it was an unannounced visit, there was no trouble in the alley, someone was watching in the dark, and when he saw him coming, he stepped forward and saluted, "Hello, adult." ”
Jia Tong asked, "Are you in it?" ”
"Here, the little one has been staring here, except for a few men, no woman has gone out."
Jia Tong nodded, "Show me the door, I'll go in and take a look." ”
The reason why the compound is called the courtyard is because the people who live in it are mixed, so the door is always open or hidden, Jia Tong gently pushed the door in.
The sun is just right for each other, a woman is drying clothes on a bamboo pole, from behind, she is graceful, but when she turns around, her lower abdomen is slightly bulging, and she is a woman who is pregnant with a child.
Jia Tong's eyes were fixed on her stomach, as if he had lost his soul, and he walked over step by step, and he recognized it just by looking at the back, but the stomach was ......
Xinyue also saw him, panicking at first, but quickly calmed down and called him in a low voice, "Lord Jia." ”
"Xinyue, ...... you" Jia Tong's eyes kept staring at her stomach, her face was full of shock, she had only been away for three months, and she married herself out so soon?
Xinyue's emotions were a little complicated, she just wanted to leave, she didn't want to destroy them, but she didn't expect to be really pregnant.
was pregnant with a child, she had no other thoughts, thinking about giving birth to the child quietly and sending it back to Jiafu, and the great favor would be repaid, and her wish was finally okay. But she didn't know that she secretly gave birth to a child, would Lord Jia be unhappy? After all, he is the father of the child.
It's always inconvenient to stand outside and talk, so Xinyue said, "Please come in and sit down." ”
Jia Tong followed her into the house, a small room, only enough to set up a bed, and a small table, on the bed there are a few children's small belly pockets, embroidered with chickens and ducklings, very cute.
Jia Tong looked around, although the house was small, it was clean and clear, and there seemed to be a faint fragrance, like the boudoir of the girl's house, and no trace of a man was found, and he began to drum in his heart.
"Your Excellency, please drink water." Xinyue lowered her eyes, "There is no tea at home, so adults will drink it." ”
Jia Tong needed water very much to moisten his throat at the moment, drank two sips of water, and was really comfortable, trembling, and asked straight to the point, "Xinyue, who is the child's father?" ”
Xinyue raised her eyes, even if the child's father was in front of her, she was a little embarrassed, her face was red and lowered again, and she said half-loudly, "The child is almost three months old." ”
No matter how confused Jia Tong is, he understands, Xinyue left his house three months ago, and now he is three months pregnant, and it is clearly his child!
