The High Gate Mistress of Rebirth

Chapter 413

Zhen Guogong Mansion
Naturally, everyone in the government could hear about such a big event in the southern flood control project. Li Xian was the main imperial envoy responsible for the construction of the project. When the family members heard about this, they were naturally very anxious.

Li Ling, the backbone, was away on an expedition, so Li Xiang naturally became the family's hope.Xu Wanning, Jing Shu and Pingyang Baba's Hua waited for a whole day in Xianglin Garden, and they finally looked forward to Li Xiang's return.

Seeing Li Xiang, Xu Wanning hurriedly asked, "Did you find out? Is there any news about your elder brother? Has the court questioned him?"

Li Xiang gulped down a cup of tea, and replied: "Your Majesty just ordered the people from the cabinet to go to the south to investigate. I'm afraid it will take a while before we get any news."

After Xu Wanning heard this, she sat down blankly, and said dumbly: "I'm afraid this matter is more or less ominous."

After Jing Shu and Xu Wanning left, Ping Yang asked Li Xiang, "Is there no rumor from the inner court? How could such a large project go wrong? This seems strange."

Li Xiang replied: "This matter can only be determined after investigation. The inner court has always been calm, so how can we hear what is said."

While the two were talking, Brother Heng, who had just learned to walk, staggered in, threw himself into Pingyang's arms and yelled childishly: "Mother, I'm so hungry, when can I have dinner?"

Ping Yang held his son in his arms and kissed him, he said with a smile: "Didn't Brother Heng just eat some snacks and you're hungry again?"

Brother Heng said in a milky voice: "The snack melted in the stomach, and when mother heard it, the little stomach was growling again."

Ping Yang kissed his son, and replied straightforwardly: "Okay, then mother, let them prepare the meal."

As he said that, Pingyang called Yuzhu to order the little girls to prepare meals. Li Xiang sat down on the chair and asked Pingyang, "Did sister Mei burn again today?"

Sister Mei is the name of the girl Jiao Xing gave birth to.The child was born prematurely, so he was weak and sickly.

Since Jiao Xing left the mansion, this child has been raised under Pingyang's knees. If she doesn't mind Jiao Xing at all, Ping Yang really doesn't have such a broad mind, but she is a kind person after all, so it won't be because of this. Take your anger out on a weak child.

Pingyang chose two wet nurses to take care of Sister Mei carefully in the Kuayuan. The food and drink for this child were no different from her own children.Naturally, Pingyang would not treat Sister Mei with the same heart and soul as he would treat his own child, but a family like them can't afford a child's food and clothing, so they just treat her well.

What Pingyang did was not for Li Xiang to see, but because she had such a heart, no matter how resentful she was, she would not be able to vent her anger on a child.

Pingyang replied truthfully: "Today, according to the doctor's instructions, the wet nurse gave me medicine again, but the fever didn't start again, but according to the wet nurse's report, sister Mei's appetite is still bad, and she only ate half a bowl of porridge today."

Li Xiang dotes on Sister Mei very much, and now he no longer needs to suppress and hide it like he used to treat Jiao Xing. When Li Xiang heard that his daughter is still not well, he murmured worriedly: "This child is too weak. some."

Pingyang replied casually: "The doctor said that it was due to her congenital deficiency, so she can only be taken care of."

Li Xiangyou said worriedly: "I'll go and have a look." After saying that, he got up and hurriedly walked towards the courtyard.

Ping Yang was coaxing her youngest son, seeing Li Xiang leaving just like that, she didn't even lift her eyes.

Sometimes, even Pingyang wondered, he loved Li Xiang so obsessively at the beginning, but when she knew that Jiao Xing was the one in his heart, she could let it go without worrying about his every move. And secretly sad or anxious.

It turns out that falling in love with someone may be just a moment, and not falling in love is just a blink of an eye.

After the maids served the meals, Pingyang gathered at the table with his two daughters and son, and the mother and son happily used it. No one cared about Li Xiang, who had gone to the courtyard and hadn't returned, or Yuzhu asked He said, "Would you like to leave a meal for uncle?"

Only now did Pingyang remember this incident, and she replied: "Let's tell the small kitchen to bring the food to the Kuayuan. Sister Mei is ill, so he must stay there longer."

After the explanation, Pingyang continued to eat happily with the children.

Sure enough, Li Xiang didn't return until midnight, while Ping Yang had already fallen asleep. She was awakened by the sound of Li Xiang's return. Ping Yang turned over and was about to go back to sleep. Said: "Why did Brother Heng sleep here tonight?"

Pingyang closed his eyes and replied: "I thought you would accompany Sister Mei in Kuayuan. Brother Heng was tired from playing here at night, so I let him sleep here."

Li Xiang didn't say anything after hearing the words, he took off his clothes and lay down beside the narrow bed.

Ping Yang was about to fall asleep again with his son in his arms, but Li Xiang's slight calling came from next to his ear. Ping Yang barely opened his eyes and asked, "Is there something wrong?"

Li Xiang was silent for a while, and asked, "Do you really hate me in your heart?"

Ping Yang replied: "It's not about hate."

Li Xiang got up and sat up, and said to Pingyang: "Pingyang, I really don't want to hurt you, ever since I married you, I've been trying to make you happy."

Her husband was thinking of another woman, so how could she fulfill his heart.

Pingyang smiled wryly, and replied in a low voice: "Since knowing your true thoughts, I am much more at ease than before."

Now Pingyang takes good care of several children, and runs some businesses to make money. She chats with her sister-in-law and sister-in-law in her spare time. She doesn't focus on Li Xiang, but her life is more stable than before.

After hearing this, Li Xiang said anxiously: "Pingyang, listen to me, in fact, I didn't intend to hide it from you on purpose, I'm right to you"

Before Li Xiang finished speaking, Ping Yang interrupted him and said: "Okay, don't talk anymore, be careful to disturb Brother Heng."

Seeing the truth in desperation, she and Jiao Xing fell into the water at the same time. When Li Xiang left her and went desperately to save Jiao Xing, Ping Yang's heart for him completely died.

Since you don't care anymore, why bother.

Li Xiang finally stopped talking, Ping Yang turned sideways, closed his eyes, thinking in his mind that he should go to his uncle's house tomorrow.Uncle is an important minister in the cabinet, and his cousin also holds important positions in the inner court. Now that the prince of the government is not at home, since Li Xiang can't be counted on, regarding Li Xian's matter, he can go to his uncle to find out.

Her life was saved by Jingshu and Xu Wanning, whoever treats her well, she should repay double.

Seeing his sister-in-law getting angry so anxiously, Ping Yang couldn't hold back in his heart.
