Remember for a second [.. ], popular free reading!
There are a few camphor trees in the small courtyard, lush and lush, the afternoon sun falls through the branches, sprinkling a dappled light and shadow, and the bluestone slabs are lined with small white flowers, lush.
Huo Jingwan sat on the swing in the small courtyard, wearing a long white skirt and a beige knitted jacket on the outside, her hair was hanging down, and her side face was fair and quiet.
"Jingwan," Ye Qian called out to her and walked towards her, "Aren't you sick?" Why are you still sitting in the yard. ”
I thought she was lying in her room!
"Second sister-in-law," Huo Jingwan followed the voice and looked over, seeing that it was Ye Qian, she smiled gently at her, "The air outside is better, so I don't want to lie in the house, and it's not a serious illness, it's just a little cold." ”
It was already close to November, the weather was gradually getting cooler, and the river water was even colder, and she fell into the water, her body was a little weaker, and she was indeed prone to illness.
Looking at her up close, her face was very pale and sickly.
Ye Qian sat down next to her, and Huo Jingwan asked with a smile, "Are you back today?" Second brother told you, I'm sick? ”
"I arrived this morning," Ye Qian avoided the seriousness, glancing at the book she was holding, the work of a well-known Japanese mystery writer, "You are wearing a little little here, is it cold?" ”
Huo Jingwan shook her head, "It's not cold, there's sun outside, it's quite comfortable." ”
Bai Chuan stood at a distance away, and didn't step forward to interject, but he didn't take his eyes off much, and his mind was still thinking about what Ye Qian had said.
Ye Qian leaned back and said with a smile, "How could you have a conflict with Mu Qingxi?" Why did she push you into the water? ”
Even though she has heard some of them, what she hears from the mouths of the parties is still very different from what she hears from the mouths of others.
She didn't want to suspect Huo Jingwan of anything, she just asked casually.
Huo Jingwan sighed lightly, "She misunderstood me, and when I argued with her for a few words, she became angry and pushed me into the water." ”
Ye Qian asked, "Misunderstanding?" What misunderstanding? ”
Huo Jingwan said unhurriedly: "Some time ago, because of the third brother's affairs, the second brother has been busy, so busy that he can't even take care of lunch time, so I will prepare lunch for him at noon every day and send it over, forcing him to finish eating." His stomach has not been very good, caused by being too busy with work, and I am afraid that he will have stomach problems again. ”
Ye Qian smiled, "So she misunderstood that you like Huo Yunze and come to him every day?" ”
Huo Jingwan hurriedly explained, "I don't, second sister-in-law, don't get me wrong, I just care about him, second brother, he has always been very good to me, you know, my identity, in the Huo family, is actually very embarrassing." ”
She was adopted, even if Huo Beiyuan and his wife loved her as their own daughter, but those who knew the truth didn't take her very seriously, after all, she was only adopted, not biological, in the end, it was different from the young lady of the family, and she was there.
Ye Qian understood the meaning of her words, and said jokingly: "Actually, Huo Yunze was injured and hospitalized that time, and you went to see him, I also doubted it, after all, you are really considerate to him, and even I will be jealous when I see it." ”
Huo Jingwan's expression was flustered, "Second sister-in-law......"
Ye Qian held her hand and smiled softly, "I'm just joking, don't take it seriously, what kind of character you have, I still know, you are good to your second brother, your second brother is also good to you, you grew up together, and it is a brother and sister relationship, it's nothing, what others like to think, how they like to talk, that's their business, don't pay attention to it." ”
Huo Jingwan sighed lamentingly, "I know, but gossip is always bad and easy to misunderstand." ”
Ye Qian said: "If you misunderstand, you can misunderstand, just have a clear conscience." ”
Huo Jingwan nodded, looking well-behaved, "I know." ”
The two sat together and talked, Feng Man came in from outside, saw Ye Qian, and greeted with a smile, "Xiao Qian, why did you come?" Come and see Jingwan? ”
The third aunt Feng Man and the second aunt Xu Xinyi are two types of people, Feng Man is gentle like water, speaks softly, and always laughs, which makes people easy to get close to.
Bai Chuan said that Feng Man used to go to see her from time to time and send her some things, and the two of them could talk quite well, they would talk about paintings and flowers together, and sometimes they would play a game of chess, which could be said to be close.
Probably because he doesn't have children, so Feng Man likes them very much, and it hurts like his own children.
Such an amiable person, but unable to have children, Ye Qian was very sad for her.
"Yes, I heard that Jingwan is sick, come and take a look," Ye Qian smiled and got up, "Third aunt, where have you been?" ”
Feng Man smiled and said: "Your second aunt asked me to make up the numbers and play two rounds of mahjong, where can I do that, just play casually." ”
Huo Jingwan frowned, her voice was a little cold, "Did the second aunt ask you to make up the numbers?" It's just that I deliberately let you lose money, knowing that you can't play, so I let you pass, Mom, you're just too good-tempered. ”
Feng Man was debunked by her in public, with a hint of reprimanding in her expression, but she didn't have any strength, she still looked soft and soft, "She doesn't care about my little money, it's just a bad person, I'll make up the number in the past." ”
Huo Jingwan pouted, looking a little unhappy, as if she was playing petty.
Ye Qian thought that this must have happened often, otherwise Huo Jingwan would not have been so excited, but Xu Xinyi was indeed a little arrogant and arrogant, and she probably liked to bully Feng Man, who made her good-tempered and soft-tempered!
Feng Man turned his head to look at Ye Qian, "Xiao Qian, do you want to eat here at night?" I'll make you your favorite ribs. ”
Ye Qian chuckled and refused, "No, third aunt, I still have something to do in the evening, wait for the next time I am free, come back and eat the food you cooked." ”
Feng Man smiled: "That's good, you call Yun Ze back too, he liked the dishes I cooked when he was a child, you move out, it's hard to see him once now." ”
Ye Qian's voice agreed briskly, "Okay! Next time we come back together, I'll go first! ”
Feng Man nodded, Huo Jingwan waved goodbye to her, and when Ye Qian came out of the courtyard, Feng Man said to Huo Jingwan: "You are walking very close to Xiao Qian now!" Didn't you like spending time with her before? ”
Huo Jingwan pursed her lips, "Her temperament is much better now than before. ”
Feng Man disagreed, "It's all good, Xiaoqian used to be quiet, had a good personality, and knew a lot, but he was silent, but now it's good, and he is a lot more extroverted." ”
Huo Jingwan grabbed her arm, "Mom, I want to eat taro, let's make it at night!" ”
Feng Man patted her hand, said hello, and the two walked into the house together.
And Ye Qian walked out of the small courtyard, followed Bai Chuan to the parking apron, and after getting into the car, fasten his seat belt.
Ye Qian asked Bai Chuan, "My third aunt is so good, why can't she give birth?" Now that medical technology is so developed, infertility can be cured, and it really can't work, so can IVF? ”
Bai Chuan hesitated, and said slowly: "The third lady gave birth to a child before, but she only lived to be one year old and died, the death of the little young master hit the third master and his wife very hard, and after that, the two of them never had another child." ”
Feng Man was not in good health, and was always disliked by her husband's family after marriage, and in order to get pregnant, she took a lot of medicine, but it never got better, and it had no effect, so the couple decided to give up and adopted Huo Jingwan.
But in the third year of adopting Huo Jingwan, Feng Man became pregnant, and gave birth to a boy the following year, the two were overjoyed and took care of it carefully, but who knew that on the first birthday, the child died, and the death was very miserable, and he was thrown to death.
After listening to Bai Chuan's words, Ye Qian was shocked, "Fell to death?" Who did this to you? ”
Bai Chuan said: "Nanny, I heard that the nanny had a personal vendetta with the third master, and in order to take revenge, the one-year-old young master was thrown to death, and after that, the man also went crazy." ”
Ye Qian's breathing tightened, "Actually...... There is such a thing! The third uncle looks very honest, how can he offend people? ”
Bai Chuan shook his head, "I don't know, it may be that I have inadvertently offended someone, or it may be that the other party has found the wrong object for revenge, this is all possible." ”
Ye Qian didn't know what to say, Huo Beiyuan was a university professor and taught history, it stands to reason that this kind of person who works in the school can offend anyone, it is estimated that the student will not get credits, but it will not hurt people's lives, and he is still a child.
Suddenly knowing such a past incident, and thinking about Feng Man's gentle and kind appearance just now, Ye Qian sighed deeply, and his mood was a little depressed.
She was thinking wildly, the phone rang, and the caller reminded that it was Mu Qingxi, she hesitated for a moment and answered the phone, "Miss Mu?" ”
Mu Qingxi said directly: "Xiaoqian, let's meet!" ”
Ye Qian chuckled, "What do you want to talk to me about?" ”
Mu Qingxi said: "You should have heard about Huo Jingwan, I want to talk to you." ”
Ye Qian looked at the backward plane tree outside the window, "Okay! ”
Mu Qingxi said an address, after Ye Qian hung up the phone, asked Bai Chuan to go to the place Mu Qingxi said, she wanted to hear what Mu Qingxi said, last time she said that she had something to tell her, but then she didn't say it, now that she thinks about it, she is still very curious.
Half an hour later, Ye Qian arrived at the agreed place, and Mu Qingxi was already there. The open-air café is built next to the water, and the sun is warm, but it is not cold.
Ye Qian ordered a cup of coffee, looked at Mu Qingxi with a smile, and asked, "Want to tell me about what happened on the cruise ship?" ”
"You already know, Huo Jingwan will take the lead and take the initiative to tell you everything?" Mu Qingxi's tone was a little disdainful, even mixed with a bit of hatred.
Ye Qian chuckled, "It wasn't her who said it, it was Xiaoyu who told me." ”
"Oh, Miss Jane! She was there that day," Mu Qingxi smiled, "Xiao Qian, if you have to believe me, Huo Jingwan is pretending, she likes Huo Yunze." ”
Ye Qian twisted his fingers carelessly, "Is there any evidence?" Based on your guess alone? ”
Mu Qingxi said: "You must have been confused by her, you know, you didn't have any contact with you before, and she won't please you like now, she obviously looked down on you before." She's pretending to be right now, deliberately approaching you to please you. ”
Ye Qian smiled, "Even so, it may be that my previous personality was not very likable, so she didn't like to play with me, even if she is deliberately approaching me to please me now, but she has not done anything substantial to me."
