Lin Boqin carried Chu Cheng into the house and placed her favorite one, a rattan recliner covered with a white velvet blanket.

He turned around and poured a cup of hot tea and handed it to Chu Cheng: "Drink some water first, Doctor Xu will be there soon." ”

Chu Cheng took the teacup, took a sip, raised his eyes to look at him, and asked with a little weakness: "Lin Boqin, my headache is really weird, do you ...... You're not mad at me, are you? ”

She didn't have a clue to ask, Lin Boqin frowned and said, "Of course not." ”

Chu Cheng secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good." ”

Later, Dr. Xu came to check that she was not sick, and it was estimated that Lin Boqin was going to kill her with his eyes again.

However, Lin Boqin didn't think like that at this time.

He stood next to him, and saw the delicate woman nesting softly in the fluffy chaise longue, the green silk was hanging down, lining a delicate little face with white skin like jade, delicate and vulgar, and it was distressing for no reason.

Chu Ji was sucked in his arms before, and her cheeks were still red at this time.

Seeing this, Lin Boqin wondered if she was having a fever.

If you really have a fever, you're in trouble.

His heart moved at will, and he bent down and raised his hand, and touched her smooth forehead with the back of his hand.

"It's okay, it's not hot."

Chu Cheng was taken aback by his abrupt move, and only reacted when she felt the temperature on her forehead that did not belong to her.

Lin Boqin was so close to her, and the tip of her nose could almost smell the usual ink scent of books on his robe. The sideburns are like a knife, and the sword eyebrows are upright, but it's a pity that the eyes under the eyebrows are rarely smiling, always solemn, like a cold star in a secluded pool.

But such a cold and serious person, Chu Cheng couldn't hate it.

She always quarrels with him on the surface and makes him angry, but in her heart, she ...... In the end, I hope he is good.

As for why, Chu Cheng lowered her eyes and refused to think about it.

Through the window under the dead tree, he saw his adult's hand, affectionately placed on his wife's forehead, handsome and beautiful, like a beautiful person in a painting.

Dr. Xu entered the house and said hello briefly, and Lin Boqin gave up his position and asked him to help diagnose and treat.

Chu Cheng was still immersed in her own mixed thoughts, she sipped hot tea in her left hand, and stretched out her right wrist to let Dr. Xu take the pulse.

Dr. Xu touched the white flower and long beard on his chin, groaned for a long time, and suddenly laughed loudly. He got up and arched his hand towards Chu Cheng and Lin Boqin, and said, "Congratulations, Lord Lin, Madam is so happy!" ”

Chu Cheng just drank the hot tea in her mouth, and she squirted out "poof" carelessly, "Happy?" ”

"Impossible." Lin Boqin's gaze fell on Chu Cheng in disbelief, and that look was completely unbelievably absurd.

Over there, Xi Du and Mabi were about to jump up happily, and one of them hurriedly said, "Great, the adults and the lady are going to give birth to a little boy, a little miss!" The other also smiled and bent his mouth, "Lord Xu, do you want to seal a red envelope for you?" "What about a few months now? Can it be diagnosed? "Oh, maybe it's twins!" "The children of the lady and the adults must be cute and pretty!"

“…… Eh, wait! Chu Cheng looked at Lin Boqin, whose face was green, and hurriedly raised his hand to stop their joy.

She frowned and said the key point: "Doctor Xu, did you make a mistake?" ”

Dr. Xu stroked his beard and said, "Probably not." ”

Chu Cheng looked weird, was she happy? Isn't that teasing her! At her strong request, Dr. Xu took the pulse to diagnose again, and this diagnosis, he felt the pulse for a long time.

"How?" Chu Cheng raised her eyebrows.

Dr. Xu let out a "uh" and smiled embarrassedly: "It's really old...... The old one is wrong. Madame is just a little weak, and she will be cured by drinking a few prescriptions. ”

In fact, Chu Cheng was not sick at all, but Dr. Xu had made a mistake just now, and he was afraid that Lin Boqin and others would doubt his level, so he said that Chu Cheng was weak.

The two maids, Mabi and Xidu, were very disappointed. It was indeed they who were confused just now, and they hadn't seen the lady and the adults in the same room for so long, where did the joy come from! Ay......

Chu Cheng didn't care about this, she waved her hand: "Doctor Xu is old, and sometimes it's normal to make mistakes. ”

Doctor Xu looked at Chu Cheng and Lin Boqin's faces a little strangely, but he didn't know why they showed such looks, so he guessed that they regretted that they were not pregnant with an heir. He smiled and comforted: "The doctor and the lady don't need to be anxious, the lady has eaten this prescription to regulate the weakness, and I believe that in less than three months, good things will come!" ”

Mabi and Xidu, who were still lost, heard the words and rekindled hope: "That's good." ”

Mao Bi went to send Dr. Xu out, and Xi Du went to decoction Chu Cheng.

The crackling sound of the charcoal basin burning in the house made a more quiet room, and the needle drop could be heard. And Chu Cheng and Lin Boqin glanced at each other, both a little embarrassed......

Chu Ji rubbed the teacup that had been cold in his hand, and said without words: "Doctor Xu is really old and dizzy. ”

Lin Boqin said "um" and said nothing.

He looked sideways out the window, at the dead trees in the courtyard and the weeds under the steps, his eyes were far away but he didn't know what he was thinking.

Chu Cheng thought about the suspicious look in his eyes just now, and couldn't help but ask with a sense of ridicule: "Hey, Lin Boqin." Just now, Dr. Xu said that I was happy, do you suspect that I am stealing a man for you outside? ”

Lin Boqin suddenly turned his head, glared at her and scolded: "Foul language, you can say it." ”

"What's so hard to say, you just said that expression." Chu Cheng put the teacup on the small table, "Don't worry, although we have three chapters of the law, I will never let you be a green turtle." "She is Chu Hui, not Li Siniang, Li Siniang can elope with Lu Feixing casually, Chu Siniang will not.

Thinking of this, she tilted her head and winked at Lin Boqin with a smile.

Bright eyes are good, looking forward to circulation, making people's hearts beat.

It was obviously a good word, but Lin Boqin felt that her wording was simply insulting.

His ideal marriage partner should be a well-read, virtuous and gentle woman. And now, I don't know if he is enchanted, looking at Chu Hui's delicate appearance, his heart is rippling, sweet.

Inexplicably, Lin Boqin thought of what Xi Du and Mao Bi had just said.

They said, "The children of the lady and the adults must be very cute and beautiful!" ”

Chu Cheng is so beautiful, she gave birth to a daughter, she should be as beautiful as her, so people can't take their eyes off it......

He stood stupidly and didn't speak, Chu Cheng couldn't help but look at it suspiciously, and asked, "What's wrong?" You don't believe it? ”

Lin Boqin came back to his senses, looked away unnaturally, and said something that was not right for the horse's mouth: "Do you remember the original three chapters of the covenant?" ”

"Remember!"

Chu Cheng blurted out, "You keep me worry-free about food and clothing, and I won't mess around in front of you." If you want to marry a wife and take a concubine in the future, I will not stop you. ”

After speaking, Lin Boqin's face darkened.

It took him a long time before he said in a deep voice: "You are not dangling in front of my eyes, it seems that you have not fulfilled it from beginning to end." ”

Chu Cheng played with a strand of hair embarrassedly, and smiled: "It seems to be." ”

“……”

Lin Boqin looked at her face, and then looked around at the place that was originally his room, but was later transformed into a "boudoir" by Chu Xi. He had something in his heart that he wanted to say to Chu Hui, but when the words came to his lips, they turned into questions: "What about you?" ”

"What am I?" Chu Cheng raised her eyes suspiciously.

"You allow me to marry a wife and take a concubine, and I don't interfere with me, so how will you treat yourself?"

Chu Ji frowned and thought, "Anyway, you don't like me, what do you care about me." After speaking, she thought of her identity, and it was impossible for her to pretend to be Li Siniang for a lifetime. After a pause, he said, "That's good, if I want to leave in the future, you can seal the 'Heli book'." ”

Lin Boqin's heart trembled, his face sank like water, and his voice was unconsciously cold: "Where are you going?" ”

Chu Cheng shook her head: "I don't know yet." ”

Anyway, she doesn't plan to return to Beijing.

Lin Boqin's heart was gone, looking at her like that, she had already had the intention to leave.

In all fairness, in the past six months, although he has been indifferent and serious to her, it is because of his personality, and he has never treated her harshly. But she was fortunate that she had been thinking about leaving, and had never regarded this place as a home.

He pursed his thin lips and stared at Chu Cheng for a long time, feeling more and more like a fool.

He sneered self-deprecatingly, turned and walked away.

Chu Cheng reacted in hindsight that she had just said the wrong thing, but she didn't expect Lin Boqin to be so angry, and the second monk was simply confused.

"Lin Boqin!"

Chu Cheng got up from the recliner with a bone, she couldn't pretend to be sick, and hurriedly ran forward to pull his sleeve, "The question you asked yourself just now, I answered you and you are still angry, why is your temper becoming more and more elusive!" ”

Lin Boqin was pulled by her coldly, and his figure shook. His handsome face was tense, looking at Chu Hui's bright eyes, he didn't know how to express the anger in his heart.

Why is he angry?

It's because ...... It's because Chu Cheng actually wants to leave.

As long as I think of Chu Cheng leaving the Lin family, leaving Qingyuan County, and leaving him...... He was angry.

After figuring out the reason, Lin Boqin himself couldn't believe it.

When the woman in front of him occupied a place in his heart, he didn't know. The anger came inexplicably, making people panic and surprise.

"Speak!"

Chu Cheng twisted her willow eyebrows and urged.

In his heart, Lin Boqin never dared to tell Chu Hui, so he had a cold face and didn't say a word.

"Alright, alright, don't be angry." Chu Cheng coaxed him again as before, "No matter what I say, you shouldn't have heard it." ”

But Lin Boqin was stunned and didn't move because of his chaotic thoughts.

His apprehension, in Chu Hui's eyes, is that oil and salt do not enter. Chu Cheng has said all the good things, but in the end, she has lost her temper and is a little sad.

Really...... Lin Boqin didn't like her at all......

Chu Cheng bit her lip aggrievedly and said loudly: "Okay, if you want to be angry with me, then don't regret it." I...... I'm really here this time, and if I don't care about you, I won't ignore you! ”

As soon as the words fell, Chu Cheng loosened his sleeve, turned around and went back to the house angrily, and slammed the door.

Lin Boqin glanced at the closed door, touched the warm place of his heart, didn't say anything, and walked away.

For more than half a month, Chu Cheng and Lin Boqin really stopped talking.

Lin Boqin is stationed in the county office, and Chu Ji goes to Xie Luoying and Su Yu from time to time, and the two are under the same roof, and they have never met once.

It's the middle of winter.

The weather is very cold.

After a snowstorm, the end of the year is quietly approaching.

On the twenty-third day of the lunar month, Mrs. Lin arrived from Fengshui County with a large bag of things, ready to gather with her family for Chinese New Year's Eve.
