Chapter 12: The Quiet World (7)

Let's say that Qi Ya waited for news all night, and no one came back when it was daylight, so he didn't panic.

Mrs. Qi sent the little maid early, saying that she wanted Qi Ya to accompany her over for breakfast.

Mrs. Qi has always been particular about eating, and breakfast is naturally good. But Qi Ya was so focused on the three people sent out that she had no intention of tasting it. Eating a meal is like sitting on pins and needles.

"Xiaoya, are you feeling unwell? Why did you only eat so little? Old Madam Qi noticed that Qi Ya hadn't eaten anything. thought that Qi Ya was depressed because he listened to his words last night, so he asked out loud.

"Auntie, I'm fine, maybe I didn't sleep well last night."

At the time of eating, several ladies who were familiar with Mrs. Qi also came over one after another. A group of wives are together, but there are no more parents who are short and play mahjong ....... Qi Ya has something on her heart, and she doesn't want to accompany her. But in the end, I couldn't bear to make Mrs. Qi unhappy.

At noon, Wu Wu came. Those people have not returned for a long time, and Qi Ya already has some guesses in her heart. Unexpectedly, He Shiyi came from there so quickly.

"Miss Qi, my colonel wants to see you, please take a trip." It was still Wu Wu's usual tone of speaking, Qi Ya listened to it, but it felt as if it was mixed with a sense of happiness.

When the car came out of the lively market, it was a wide parking road, and outside was a vast world, but Qi Ya felt extremely unbearable when she stayed in the car. She wanted to ask Wu Wu something several times, but finally swallowed it back into her mouth.

She's always been strong. When she was at home, because she was the youngest, things went smoothly in her family. Yes, I don't know what I can't ask for? Born in a family like the Qi family, where I have seen other people's faces, I mostly show others their faces. But when he met He Wetyi, it seemed that all this pride was like being spelled and lost its efficacy.

In Qi Ya's heart, she could vaguely anticipate what was about to happen. But after all, I couldn't help it, and I wanted to see He Wet Clothes again.

"Miss Qi...... Miss Qi, it's here. Qi Ya was sitting in the car, his thoughts flew far away, Wu Wu stood outside the car door, shouting a few times without noticing.

"Well, thank you, Chief Wu." Qi Ya came back to her senses, hurriedly got out of the car, and smiled apologetically at Wu Wu.

Wu Wu had never seen such a quiet Qi Ya, and he couldn't bear it in his heart. The little girl in front of her, since she followed Colonel He's side, she could be seen from time to time. For a while, he really thought that it was only a matter of time before Colonel He married Miss Qi. Qi Ya has gone from being immature and naΓ―ve in the past few years to being ruthless and self-controlled in recent days, and he has seen it in his eyes. But he believed that no matter how she changed, her heart for Colonel Ho would never change.

"Miss Qi, you can talk to the major later......" Qi Ya had already walked out for a distance, and Wu Wuyu stood still by the car door.

"Isn't Chief Wu on Teacher Yan's side?" Qi Ya heard the voice, her body froze slightly, turned around, and smiled at Wu Wu.

Wu Wu's body stiffened.

Qi Ya walked towards the hospital, her back straight. She knew that Wu Wu didn't follow, just watched her back from a distance. She also knew that Wu Wu's intentions were good, but she didn't want to accept this almost pitiful kindness.

She lost, but she didn't lose everything.

It was lunchtime in the hospital, and there was no one in the front hall except the nurses on duty. The ground is smooth and clean, and you can hear a crisp sound when you step on it. As she walked through the front desk, Qi Ya even saw the envy of the two little nurses as they looked at her.

It is not a short distance from the hall to the third floor where He Wet's ward is located. But Qi Ya walked very calmly and quickly, walked to the slightly open door of the ward, and didn't even forget to knock on the door first.

The door of the ward opened, and a nurse was serving He Shiyi to eat, and when she saw Qi Ya coming in, she immediately withdrew the little nurse.

"Don't worry, let's finish your meal first!" Qi Ya calmly found a chair and sat down.

He Shiyi didn't speak, and the little nurse who was about to clean up showed a dilemma.

"No, I have something to talk to you about." He Shiyi waved his hand to signal the little nurse to leave, and his voice was very cold.

"I know what you're going to say, yes, I did what happened last night. What do you want? Qi Ya looked at He Wet Clothes with ease.

"Since you are so happy, Brother He will not go around in circles with you. This is the last time, if you dare to move again, Hugh blames the big brother for not remembering the old feelings. He Shiyi paused, and then said: "Although you and I are engaged, I have no intention of marrying you, this is the eldest brother who can't live with you." ”

"That's all?" Qi Ya frowned slightly, and pretended to smile coquettishly.

He Shiyi frowned slightly.

"Teacher Yan, I won't touch her again. But as for the engagement, it's not something you and I can do. ”

"What do you want?" He Shiyi knows that today's Qi Ya is no longer the little sister next door in the past. Since she is willing to say this, she must have a plan in her heart. His heart suddenly relaxed a lot.

"When you hold great power, it will be the day when you and I break off our marriage. As a condition, after you have the power, you need to help me revive the Qi family. Qi Ya said.

"Okay, that's a deal." He Shiyi agreed loudly.

As the days passed, Qing Qian thought that he would not be able to wait for the day when he saw He Shiyi. I didn't expect to be able to see him so soon. It's just that I haven't seen him for a few days, and I've lost a lot of weight. In the face of him like this, her grief and indignation suddenly lost her catharsis.

When we met again, there was no exhaustion, and there was no bad word to each other. There is only a long silence, and emptiness. Standing in such an empty silence, He Shiyi's heart was full of hustle and bustle, and he quieted down a little bit.

The weather was gloomy, and when he looked up, He Shiyi's face seemed to be buried in the darkness: "I want to go and see my father." ”

"Okay, I'll accompany you." He Shiyi's voice was hoarse.

My father's tomb is on Huishan Mountain, and Miss Pan's tomb is in the same place. On the second day after Qing Qian returned home, she asked someone to tell He Shiyi that she was going to move her father's grave. She can't go out, everything is done by the housekeepers Uncle Li and Wu Wu. The house was hung up and down, and she dug out the game of chess that she accidentally broke last time from the soil. Washed up, stayed in his father's courtyard all day long and glued that broken game of chess.

The chess piece was of the highest quality, and it was completely broken, and it took her a whole day and a night to glue the last piece of the piece.

Uncle Li, the housekeeper, took good care of the house up and down, and the rockery in the yard was gurgling. It was almost autumn, the flowers and trees were not luxuriant, and the servants specially placed a few pots of chrysanthemums on the side of the rockery where the vegetation was decaying. The big crab claws spread wantonly.

Qing Qian sorted out the glued chess pieces and wrapped them in a blue floral cloth bag. This blue floral cloth bag was bought by my father when I first entered a private school when I was a child. At that time, the family was not a wealthy family, or the father could not be too wealthy. The next day was the day I went to a private school, and my father went to the clinic and came home late. She didn't sleep, and she had to wait until she saw the bookbag that her father had promised.

It was still raining at night, and my father seemed startled when he saw himself in the hallway. Squatted down and asked yourself, "Qing'er, why don't you go to sleep at such a big night?" ”

"Wow, you really forgot." The backlog of sullenness overnight exploded instantly when he sensed that his father had not bought back the school bag.

"Yo, don't cry, don't cry, Daddy will buy it for you." On the day of the visit, my father should have been very tired, but he still carried himself out of the house.

On the way back, the rain was pouring down, and the young self was lying on his father's back. On his back, there is a blue floral book bag. When I grew up, I also liked to hold my father all the time.

There is no going back to such a time......

Uncle Li came at this time to ask Qingqian, where the old man's tomb was placed. Even if I thought of Huishan, that place was the happiest place to stay with my father since I could remember. And Aunt Bi's tomb is also there, Qing Qian thought, my father is willing to stay with Miss Pan!

Driving all the way, He Shiyi sat next to Qingqian. In his shallow hand, he tightly dragged the chess game wrapped in a blue floral cloth bag. Concentrate and look out the window. In fact, you don't have to look back to perceive that He Shiyi has been paying attention to her and is cautious. She just didn't know it.

When they arrived in Huishan, the two walked wordlessly for a while. The closer I got to my father's grave, the faster I walked. When I saw my father's tombstone, it was shallow and close to running.

Two tombstones side by side, brand new and clean.

The father's name, bright red cinnabar, is outlined on white marble.

Until this moment, the tears accumulated in the past few days finally couldn't stop flowing. Qing Qian put the chessboard he brought in front of the tomb, and then knelt in front of the tombstone for a long time, and He Shiyi stood quietly on the side. Until the sun went down, the whole mountain fell into a drowsy.

"Let's go back!" He Shiyi leaned down, trying to help Qingqian.

"I'm not going back with you." Qing Qian raised his face, and on his tear-stained face, he smiled faintly at He Shiyi.

"Yan Qingqian." He Shiyi looked at the shallow appearance, and inexplicable fear struck, and he couldn't stop trembling.

"What did you eat?" He Shiyi's eyes seemed to be about to erupt into flames, and his eyes were also red. He tugged on his shallow and soft body tightly, and asked eagerly.

"Say, say quickly." He Shiyi picked up his shallow body and ran all the way down the mountain. The mountain road was rugged, and he fell again and again, but every time he landed, he protected Qingqian in his arms.

Large drops of sweat fell onto her shallow cheeks, scaling, as if they were about to burn her face. However, the person holding her was so stiff. Qing Qian thought before his consciousness fell into a drowsy, so be it! Everyone was relieved.

When I woke up again, I was already lying in the room on the second floor of the Huanshan Mansion. He Shiyi was not there, and when the maid Xiaoxi saw her wake up, she hurriedly wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and asked Qingqian what she needed.

"Konishi?" Qingqian looked at Konishi, unable to believe that he was still alive.

"Miss, why are you so stupid, fortunately, Uncle Li has already sensed that something is wrong with you. The sleeping pills you asked Zhang's mother to prescribe in the hospital are not all true......" Xiaoxi said, tears streaming down again.

Qingqian slowly stroked Xiaoxi's hair, unable to speak.

"Miss, you are not alone now, you have to take care of yourself!" Xiaoxi gritted his teeth, and finally said to Qingqian according to what He Shiyi instructed when he left.

"You...... What did you say? Qing Qian's hand between Konishi's hair stiffened.

"You...... You're almost four months pregnant. Xiaoxi saw the shallow expression, and for a while, he was a little hesitant.

"How could it be...... How could it be. Qingqian couldn't believe it, these days, she was depressed, and she didn't pay attention to some changes in her body, but she didn't think about it.

"Where's the wet suit? I want to see him. After sitting quietly for a while, Qingqian turned his head and asked Konishi.

"Early this morning, Mrs. Ho ...... Mrs. He's illness attacked, and Colonel He rushed to Huaijiang Hospital early in the morning. Xiaoxi saw the shallow appearance and knew that she must be extremely uncomfortable at this time.

The night when the young lady fell asleep, Colonel He was always by her side, never leaving an inch. Even the official documents were reviewed and approved in front of the young lady's bed. Colonel He looked at the young lady's expression, which made Xiaoxi not want to hate him, although Xiaoxi knew that it was Colonel He who killed the master. This morning, Colonel He was suddenly notified, so he had to rush to Huaijiang Hospital.

Qing Qian had a cold expression, and when he heard Konishi's report, he was stunned for a moment.

"I want to sleep a little longer, you go out first, when he comes back, I want to see him." When you turn to your side, you have to continue sleeping.

"Miss, Colonel He told you not to sleep again when you wake up, eat something, and go around the flower garden......" Xiaoxi was still about to speak, and saw Qingqian looking at him quietly. pursed her lips and remained silent. Swiftly, stopped talking.

Konishi is smart and understands instantly. When she said this, the young lady must have been angry. However, what Colonel He said was also for the sake of Miss's body!

It wasn't until Konishi exited the room that Qingqian's mouth and nose buried under the quilt could breathe.

The curtains had been pulled back, and the warm sunlight from outside was shining through the windows. The color of the sun tells the light that at this time, it is the time of morning. The room was bright, and there was a faint scent of flowers in the air. It turned out that on the cabinet in front of the bed, there was a handful of daisies in a small crystal glass bottle. Small, white flowers, messily blooming in a pile of green.

Qing Qian looked at the little white flowers, and his heart was filled with unspeakable sorrow. She is pregnant with a child, should she rejoice or dislike this child? She was sad and hurried in such a choice.

Where are you? I want to see you.

At this time, Huaijiang Hospital was a different scene.

The third floor of the hospital is full of sentry posts and is closed to traffic. A group of lieutenants in military uniforms gathered outside the hospital hall, and none of them were allowed to go upstairs. The last time there was trouble in the Northland, it coincided with the onset of Mrs. He's illness, and several officers were also present. This time, Northland declared war, and Mrs. He was critically ill. During this period, some officers have encountered this for the second time, so they naturally know how to read the eyes.

I just waited for most of the day, and I didn't see the commander and Colonel He go downstairs. Doctors, nurses, maids and maids are not visible, and this gratuitous reason makes people feel worried.

Near noon, a tight burst of gunfire suddenly came from the third floor. In the hall, doctors and patients suddenly panicked. Among these military uniforms, there are naturally those who are very loyal to Luo Rongkai and He Wet. Several lieutenants, despite the guards' obstructions, forced their way upstairs.

When they went up, they only felt that the entire third floor was unusually quiet.

A scarlet carpet that stretches long to the end of the hallway. The hallway was empty.

Without thinking, several lieutenants rushed towards the ward where He Xinwan was. The door to the ward was ajar, and several of them were first-class and astute men in the army. At this time, he did not dare to rush the door in.

I'm waiting through the gap to see what's going on inside. I heard the sound of "popping" footsteps, coming from the suite in the ward. Everyone straightened their backs and waited outside the door. After a while, a group of guards with spears came out of the ward. I think it must have been the guard at the door just now, who heard the gunshots and rushed in.

"What just happened?" Eager, one of the guards who caught it out asked him again and again.

"Husband...... Madame has passed away. The guard's lips moved a few times, and finally he whispered.

The crowd immediately stopped.

Although the commander's wife is a newcomer, she has heard that the commander cherishes her very much, as can be seen from the last illness. Moreover, Colonel He, and the commander's own son, I think this lady knew the commander at an early age. This is indeed tricky.

"What happened to that gunshot?"

"The gun was fired by the commander."

When everyone heard this, they had a plan. Before the lieutenant could ask some questions, the "creak" door was opened, and standing inside the door was He Wet Clothes.

"Colonel Ho." The vigilant immediately interrupted his companion's questioning.

"The Commander has been informed of the invasion of the Northlands. But he was ill, and the matter depended on long-term consideration. Minister Chang, you call everyone first, and after half an hour, the military headquarters will hold a meeting. He Shiyi swept everyone and said to an older one.

"Yes." That Chang Minister is a close confidant of Luo Rongkai, and he is the successor of He Wetyi, so he naturally nodded and agreed.

Everyone went downstairs with the minister, and the hallway was empty again. He Shiyi stood on this empty aisle, his peaceful face gradually dyed with grief.

The benches in the corridor are covered with thick cotton cushions, and the delicate and intricate patterns are particularly beautiful. He Shiyi gently stroked the patterns on it, and his knuckles trembled.

When I received a call in the early morning to come here, my mother was already in a trance. In the ward, a room full of people were looking at the mother, and the father stubbornly held the mother's hand. Obviously, he was the last to arrive.

The mother was so uncomfortable, and when she was leaving, she still used a weak voice, wanting to hear herself shout: "Father".

She went so uneasy.

She is just a weak woman in this troubled world, and her life has been so hard for two men.

He Shiyi sat on the bench for a while, and Luo Rongkai's voice was still in his ears: "Your mother is gone, I want to accompany her well." You sent those people out there for me. Although it was only a few light words, he had waited for a long time for this. It's just that I didn't expect it, but I got it at such a difficult time.

He Shiyi took out his pocket watch and looked at it, the time for the meeting was almost up. Then he got up, Xu sat for a long time, and his body couldn't stop stumbling. Pulling the wound, it suddenly hurts. Holding on to the wall, he loosened his placket and strode towards the staircase.

When he arrived at the military headquarters, Luo Rongkai's cronies and dignitaries had all arrived. Qin Yiqian was also sitting, and when he saw He Shiyi coming in, he was mixed with joy. The commander's willingness to delegate the current situation to He Wetyi is already a metaphor, and the position of the commander is about to be replaced.

But at such a time, the civil war in the north had just ended, and the economy was declining, so it was precisely through this battle with the south to reinvigorate morale and reorganize resources. Chen Jincheng, the new commander-in-chief of the Northland, was young and extremely belligerent, and this time, this battle was only extremely difficult to fight.

The current situation is both the best and the worst for wet suits.

Those old subordinates of Luo Rongkai did not have close contacts with He Shiyi in the army. Although there were rumors, it was said that this young colonel was wise and brave, and that he was a general, but they did not think so. In addition, although He Shiyi is the son of the commander, He Xinwan's identity is there. In addition to respect, there is also contempt.

Qin Yiqian was considered an old qualification in the army, and took the lead in saluting He Shiyi. A group of officials, although some of them were not very convinced, but they immediately followed suit.

At the beginning of the meeting, Gu Xiyan, secretary general of the headquarters, read out the commander's decree: "I am unwell with my personal ...... Therefore, my son He Shiyi was promoted to the rank of young marshal and acted as commander-in-chief. After that, He Shiyi invited the resident commander of Qingwu Town to give a detailed introduction to the terrain of Qingwu Town.
