Chapter Eighty-Five: A Distant Lover
Ruojun squatted down, trembling and picking up the bandage, tears welling up in his eyes: "Why? Why do you want this? She clutched the rack to her chest in pain.
"Why? Do you still have the face to ask why? The whole Zhou family knows why? Mrs. Zhou said fiercely: "You have made our Zhou family discredited and become a joke in his mouth, you have made the Zhou family unpeaceful and separated, what qualifications do you have to embroider his name?" ”
Ruojun couldn't defend himself, so he sat on the ground weakly, just crying.
Meng Shuzhi suddenly rushed up, pushed Mrs. Zhou hard, and said, "Mrs. Zhou, why are you so fierce?" My sister is just embroidering, she embroiders day and night, these embroideries are her hard work, how can you cut them casually? ”
"Fuck off, it's not your turn to count me down here! If it weren't for my Zhou family to take you in, you and your sister would have died on the street! Eat me, live me, and count me? Mrs. Zhou was angry, raised her hand and slapped Shu Zhi in the face, Shu Zhi took three steps back, hit his head on the bed frame, and his forehead suddenly became a bag, Ruojun hurriedly got up from the ground, supported him, hugged him distressedly, and checked his injuries.
Xun Mei also ran up and cried, and the scene was chaotic for a while, and Mrs. Zhou said loudly: "Since your brothers and sisters think that my Zhou family is mean, then don't stay here anymore and leave me early tomorrow morning!" ”
"Let's go!" Shu Zhi straightened his neck, raised his head, and pulled Xunmei to walk outside the house.
"Nope! Shu Zhi.....Don't! Ruojun hurriedly grabbed his arm, knelt down and begged Mrs. Zhou: "Mother, please don't drive them away, they are still children!" If you drive them out, how will they survive? It's me who is bad, it's me who is not good. I don't dare, I don't dare. She kowtowed.
Shu Zhi pulled her up hard, and said loudly: "Don't beg her, let's go." As she spoke, she shook off Ruojun's hand and grabbed her.
Xun Mei was frightened by the sudden change on the side and cried, she had already regarded Ruojun as a relative, a substitute for her mother, she couldn't do without Ruojun at all, although Shu Zhi pulled her out, she hugged Ruojun and didn't let go.
Shu Zhi was angry, he no longer cared about Xunmei, and rushed straight out of the house, Cuiliu hurriedly stopped him, and couldn't help crying: "Mrs., Mrs., they were brought home by the second young master, in case the second young master comes back one day and they are gone, how do you explain it, madam?" Calm your breath and leave them behind. As he spoke, he also knelt down, pulling his hands tightly and struggling with Shu Zhi.
When Mrs. Zhou heard this, her mind calmed down, she took a deep breath, and pressed the anger in her chest, but her face was still upside down, and she said domineeringly: "Get up!" An icy tone.
Mei Ruojun stood up with her support for the bed frame, she was dizzy again, she was nauseous, she just wanted to gag, she couldn't help but take out a handkerchief to cover her mouth, and retched.
Mrs. Zhou suddenly gasped, stared at her with wide eyes and shock, looked her up and down again and again, and asked nervously, "Are you...... You...... How long has it been like this? ”
Ruojun leaned weakly against the bed frame, she felt that she was about to faint, Mrs. Zhou hurriedly stepped forward to help her sit on the bed, this 180-degree change in her attitude made all the people present incomprehensible.
Ruojun looked at her in confusion and said, "It's been three or four days." ”
"Is this month's letter coming?"
Ruojun blushed, lowered his head and shook it, Mrs. Zhou suddenly had a long-lost smile on her face, and turned her head excitedly to Cuiliu and said, "Quick, quick, go and ask for a doctor, hurry!" When the doctor comes, please come back. ”
Ryan limped up and asked suspiciously, "Mother, what's wrong?" You look like you're happy. ”
"Oh, you stupid boy, you're going to be a father!" Mrs. Zhou chuckled.
"What?!" Ryan shouted excitedly, and Ruojun was also stunned.
"Ruojun, really? Are you sure? Oh, you've treated me so well. Ryan spoke much faster in excitement, threw away his crutches, hugged her tightly, and kissed her.
Ruojun's face was flushed, he pulled him to sit down beside him, and said shyly: "I haven't confirmed it yet, don't be too happy." ”
"That's not wrong, my mother is from here. Later, the doctor's pulse will be clear. Mrs. Zhou said as she folded her hands and bowed to the sky, muttering: "Bodhisattva bless, Bodhisattva bless ......."
The doctor came, Master Zhou came, and the important people of the Zhou family gathered in the chrysanthemum garden, and everyone was nervously waiting for the doctor's diagnosis. Finally, the doctor stood up with a smile and arched his hand like the second elder of the Zhou family, and said, "Congratulations, congratulations, the young grandmother has indeed been pregnant for more than a month." ”
The second elder of the Zhou family suddenly bloomed like a flower on his face, his eyes were crooked with a smile, and Master Zhou smiled: "Okay, good, I finally look forward to it." ”
Ryan sat on the edge of the bed, holding Ruojun's hand tightly, staring at her excitedly.
The doctor continued: "However, you should not take it lightly, the young grandmother is weak, there are signs of anemia, and the fetus is unstable, so you need to take good care of the fetus, rest and protect the fetus, and not be stimulated by anything. I recommend that it is best to stay in bed for the first three months, and it is better not to have intercourse. ”
"Okay, doctor, you have to keep this baby for us! This is the first grandson of our Zhou family," Mrs. Zhou's smiling eyes narrowed into a slit.
After seeing off the doctor, the whole family was even more festive, and the next people came to congratulate him. All of a sudden, Mei Ruojun changed from a demon who suffered from the white eyes of the Zhou family to a hot baby.
Ryan was even more around Ruojun every step of the way, and it wasn't until Ruojun fell asleep that he reluctantly went to the study to rest.
Mei Ruojun slept for a while, still thinking about the handkerchief that had not been embroidered, so he sat up, stayed up all night and drove out the handkerchief embroidered with the word "Kang", when it was completed, it was almost dawn, Ruojun dismantled the bandage, and gently folded the handkerchief embroidered with plum blossoms into a beautiful square, and his fingers couldn't help caressing the word "Kang" on it, sighed long, leaned on the back of the bed, touched his stomach with one hand, and had a peaceful smile on his face. It's amazing that her body is giving birth to another life, she has fallen in love with him, this is still a very small life.
After all, she has no fate with Ruikang, but her heart misses him so much, loves him, and calls him.
"A lover from afar, Mo Dao has no fate, and you are the only one who loves you,
Distant lovers, Mo Dao grievances, love is related, only you know,
Distant lover, Mo Dao remorse, the pain of love, only you monologue,
Distant lovers, Mo Dao is sorrowful, and you are the only one who suffers. ”
She silently read in her heart.
//
The funeral was held in the luxurious Xu Mansion, the atmosphere was solemn and solemn, and the mourning hall was full of people, most of these people had participated in the wedding, and their appearance was not much grief, but to give Xu Enhai face.
Xu Enhai sat on the sofa with sunglasses, the corners of his mouth pulled down, no one knew what he was thinking or who he was looking at.
Zhou Ruikang sat on the sofa on the other side, his eyes were full of red silk, he looked at Xu Manlin's portrait blankly, unconsciously touched the wedding ring on his ring finger, the Cheng brothers and sisters were by his side, Jiawei pressed his shoulder and said, "Ruikang, let's mourn and change." ”
Jiaqi squatted down, looked at him sadly, and asked softly, "What are you going to do next?" ”
Ruikang pinched the corners of his eyes, looked up and said, "I have to take Ruoli's ashes back to Beiping." ”
Jiaqi frowned and nodded: "What are you going to say to Ruojun?" ”
His heart was even heavier: "I don't know. I don't want to go home. When he thought of the chaotic Zhou family, he felt extremely bitter.
"That's it, brother, you accompany Ruikang back to Beiping first, stay at our house, take care of Ruoli's funeral, I'll wait for Yafen to give birth to the moon and rush back to Beiping to meet you, and then I'll go to Zhou's house to make a trip and explain the matter."
"Well, that's good, but you're taking care of Yafen in Shanghai alone, okay?"
"What's not to do, you men can't help you men with giving birth, I'm already familiar with the road, I'm looking at the hospital, if there's anything, I'll send Yafen to the hospital." Jiaqi said. "Besides, my father and mother are probably worried, so you go back first, so that they can rest assured." ”
Jiawei nodded: "Okay, let's see Yafen together tomorrow, and then let's go." ”
The three of them were talking, and suddenly a man in black walked up: "Mr. Zhou, Boss Xu invites you to go to the study to talk." ”
Jia Wei grabbed Ruikang and said, "Don't go." ”
Ruikang stood up and smiled lightly: "It's okay, if he wants to kill me, he can kill me anything." There's no need to do it yourself in public. I'll hear what he thinks. ”
Ruikang followed the man in black to the study, Xu Enhai was burning a cigar, sitting deep in the sofa, seeing Ruikang walk in, he pointed to the sofa opposite: "Sit." ”
The two men sat opposite each other, Xu Enhai's cold eyes dissected Zhou Ruikang's thoughts like a scalpel, and after a minute, Xu Enhai slowly opened his mouth and said, "Do you know how much property Ruhai left behind?" ”
Ruikang was stunned, he hadn't thought about Xu Ruhai's property so far, and shook his head and said, "I don't know." Does it have anything to do with me? ”
"Hehe, Manlin is my brother's only daughter, you are Manlin's legal husband, and you have the right to inherit the property in her name. In other words, a large part of my brother's fortune will fall into your hands. ”
"I didn't think about ......"
"Don't tell me, you married Man Lin, and you never thought about the Xu family's wealth." Xu Enhai was in the ashtray and flicked the ash of his cigar.
Ruikang sneered and shook his head, he knew that Xu Enhai would not believe his words, he was too lazy to explain, his current mood was very bad and low.
"Say whatever you want." He said lightly.
Xu Enhai didn't speak, just picked up an archival document from the table next to him and threw it over: "Take a look." ”
Ruikang's heart sank, the last time Xu Ruhai threw him the document was Mei Ruoli's investigation data, this time ....... this time...... And what will it be? He swallowed his throat, swallowed the uneasiness in his chest, and opened the file.
The photos on the document, the name on the document, and the content on the document suddenly made Ruikang's blood coagulate, and his face turned pale, Xu Ziyan! Xu Ziyan! His hands kept trembling, his chest kept rolling waves, his nose was full of sourness, his eyes were involuntarily hot, Xu Ziyan in the photo was so young and vigorous, and his eyes were full of wisdom.
The document slipped from his trembling hands to the ground, his whole heart tugging, and he looked up and asked, "What do you want?" ”
