Chen knew that Mao was angry. She sighed and looked at the doorway, a sad look on her face.

"Madam, didn't you hurt the old man's heart when you said this? If the lord had the idea of taking a concubine, he would have accepted it a long time ago. You are still sick now, and it is even more impossible for the master to take a concubine? "The peach blossom road waiting on the side.

"How could I not know?" Chen smiled bitterly: "But I always have to think about the future for the master." ”

"Madame, you can get well from this sickness. Don't think about it, rest assured. Think about it, young master, girl, how can you be willing? Peach Blossom persuaded.

"I can't bear it, but I know it myself." Chen couldn't help but cry again as he spoke.

"You're not a doctor, what do you know!" Mao Carrier suddenly appeared at the door again.

"Sir?" Chen was stunned. She also thought that Mao Cheng would not come tonight.

Mao Chengyun strode in, although his face was still dark, but he could see distress in his eyes.

"What's wrong with you today? I told you to change the doctor, but you persuaded me that it was okay. But I'm here to drill the horns! If you do this again, I will write to the capital to let Tongtong know! ”

"Don't, don't, don't let Tongtong know I'm sick!" Chen panicked suddenly, "She looked at the scenery in the capital, but she didn't know how much grievance she had to suffer. How can she still be worried about these things? ”

"I thought you were so confused!" Mao said: "You know that your daughter will be worried, but you don't know that I am also worried?" Don't say these frustrating words again! What else is there to take concubines and continue the strings! I'm mad if you say it again! I, Mao Chengyun, will put my words here today, there is really a day if you go in front of me, I will never take a concubine or continue the string, I will guard your spiritual position until death! In our lifetime husband and wife, there will never be anyone else in between! ”

What he said in these words was categorical, without half a minute of hesitation. Although Chen knew his intentions, he had never heard him say it himself.

She looked at Mao Chengyun blankly, unable to speak for a long time. The peach blossoms and lotus flowers who were waiting on the side had already been moved to wipe their tears.

"Sir." As soon as Chen's mouth opened, his eyes blurred.

Mao Chengyun took her in his arms, patted her on the back and said, "Okay, okay, don't cry." We've got a long way to go, so you can't leave me alone. You should take care of your body as soon as possible. ”

"Hmm." Chen nodded in a choked voice.

"We haven't seen the eldest grandson we just hugged this year, how can you be discouraged? When you get well, I'll go to the prefect for leave, and let's go to Shandong to see the eldest grandson. Mao said warmly.

"Really?" Chen's eyes lit up.

"Of course it's true! Sir, when did I speak and didn't count? When the time comes, call your in-laws to go with you! Mao Cheng said with a smile.

"Okay!" Chen nodded hurriedly. She was in the mood for this.

Mao Chengyun secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and finally coaxed it. He didn't blame Chen's horns. Anyone who has been sick for so long will have thoughts in their hearts. Even he was worried, afraid that Chen would not be able to survive this time, and thought about changing doctors.

Sometimes the slow recovery is not only due to physical reasons, but also because of mood. A good mood can promote the improvement of the condition. This is what Dr. Wang told him. It's just that he has been busy for a while lately, and he has indeed neglected Chen. It seems that in the future, she will try to find time to come back to talk to Chen during the day, so as not to make her easy to think crankily when she is alone.

"Speaking of which, hasn't Ming Xuan written in a long time?" Chan asked.

"yes. It's been a few days. Probably busy. After all, he has just taken office, and he has a lot of things to do. Mao said.

"Tongtong hasn't heard from me for a long time." Chen said again.

Mao Chengyun showed a hesitant look on his face, he never told Chen the news of the accident in the capital, for fear that she would worry. Now I don't know what the situation is in the capital, and when will I be able to communicate with that side.

"What's wrong? But something happened in the capital? "Chen knew Mao Carrier best, and when he saw the look on his face, he felt that something was wrong.

"It's okay, it's okay! What can happen in the capital! Mao said busily.

"The master has something to hide from me!" Chen said affirmatively: "Tell me, sir, what happened in the capital?" Is Tongtong okay? ”

Mao Chengyun is also a person who can't lie, and when he saw Chen's mess, he couldn't hide it anymore, and hurriedly said: "Don't worry, listen to me, there is something going on in the capital, but I think Tongtong should be fine." ”

"What the hell is going on?" Chen said urgently.

"I heard that Henan was hit by the disaster, and many displaced people fled to the capital, so the capital was closed for a period of time." Mao Carrier Road. He had hidden the disease from him.

"Lockdown? Nothing went wrong, did it? Chan asked.

"With the emperor in charge, what kind of chaos can happen. I heard that the displaced people have now been resettled, and the capital has been unblocked. Mao said.

"That's good! No wonder Tongtong hasn't written from him, it turns out that the capital has been sealed. Chen Shi breathed a sigh of relief, glanced at Mao Chengyun, and said, "Why hide this from me, just have nothing to do." ”

"It's not that I'm afraid you'll think too much." Mao Cheng secretly sweated.

"Your hesitation makes me think too much!" Chen said angrily.

"It's all my husband's fault, don't be angry, madam." Mao Chengyun hurriedly laughed.

Naturally, Chen didn't really blame him, so he laughed at the moment and said, "Let's take the time to send a letter to the children tomorrow and ask them how they are doing lately?" ”

"Good. I'll write it tomorrow. You should rest early today. I still have some business, so I'll go to the study first. I'll be over in a moment. Mao said.

Chen nodded, and lay down with Mao's support. Mao Chengyun looked at her and closed his eyes, and then went out.

As soon as he walked out of the house, the smile on Mao Chengyun's face disappeared. He remembered what Dr. Wang had said to him today, and his heart sank.

Chen's illness this time is really not good. The root of the old disease that has accumulated for many years broke out all of a sudden, and the body has lost its foundation again. In addition, after Mao Tongtong was drafted into Beijing more than two years ago, Chen became seriously ill again because of sadness. That's why this episode is so rare.

In Dr. Wang's words, if it can slowly improve before the cold weather, the disease will still have to be treated. If there is no improvement, I am afraid that this winter will not be able to survive.

Mao Chengyun kept this matter in his heart alone, and he didn't dare to show half a point in front of Chen. But tonight, when he heard Chen say that he was going to give him a concubine, he was not only angry, but also sad.

More than 20 years of husband and wife, now their children have their own lives, and he and Chen are old together. After years of deep affection, he couldn't imagine the days after Chen's departure.
