The Hidden Beauty

Chapter 11 Seeing Red
How to deal with her? How to deal with her?

Meng Tingzhou looked outside. If he were in the capital, he would never give her the chance to leave.

She was so cunning, and had been pretending to be nice for so long, and then she took great pains to leave while I was away at the battle.

If possible, he even wanted to chase her and capture her immediately.

But... the battle with the Turks was at a stalemate, and as the Left General, he was too busy to handle everything.

After thinking for a while, he suppressed his anger and said in a deep voice: "Pei Qing, when you find the person, you will immediately send someone to inform me. Do not act rashly."

As soon as Jiang Shiwan got off the boat in Jingzhou, he immediately wrote a letter to Jiangning.

I then traveled by land and water to reach Suzhou.

He vomited several times due to seasickness along the way. When Song Huaizhi and Jiang Shinian came to his house, Jiang Shiwan was in low spirits.

"Brother Song." Seeing that he personally sent the person here, Jiang Shiwan was very grateful, "I'm sorry to trouble you."

Seeing her haggard face, Song Huaizhi felt very distressed: "Meimei, you have suffered these days."

Meimei is Jiang Shiwan's nickname. This call brought back the past and her eyes suddenly became red.

They temporarily settled in a house owned by Jiang Shiwan's grandmother, which was in a remote location and was rarely known to outsiders. Song Huaizhi looked around and saw that many things were no longer usable because they had not been occupied for a long time.

"Meimei, you and Xiaonian take a rest first. I'll clean up the house and prepare some food for you."

Song Huaizhi suddenly became the backbone: "You don't look well, let me see if I can find a doctor."

Jiang Shiwan was very embarrassed: "Brother Song, I should be the one doing this. I'm sorry to have embarrassed you."

Song Huaizhi smiled gently: "You are a royal family, leave these rough tasks to me. Meimei, what do you want to eat?"

Jiang Shiwan frowned with a nauseous look on his face: "I want to eat some sour hawthorn seeds to calm my stomach."

"Okay." Song Huaizhi still depended on her like when they were little, and told Jiang Shinian, "Your sister has been traveling all the way, take good care of her first."

Jiang Shinian nodded desperately.

After Song Huaizhi left, Jiang Shinian happily held Jiang Shiwan's arm and said, "Sister, did we really escape?"

Jiang Shiwan felt nauseous: "Xiao Nian, let me sit for a while."

"Sister, you look really bad. You must have suffered a lot coming south from the capital." Jiang Shinian murmured to himself, "Brother Song said that from now on, the two of us will protect you."

"Yeah." Jiang Shiwan didn't think too much about it. "This time, we can meet again, thanks to Brother Song's help. When I recover a little, we will move to another place. After all, it's not safe here."

She knew that with Meng Tingzhou's ruthless methods, he would find this place soon.

Jiang Shinian nodded: "Don't worry, Sister, Brother Song has thought of all this. He said he has found a place and will take us away in a few days."

Jiang Shiwan's heart was pounding: "Xiao Nian, you said Brother Song will go with us?"

"Yes."

"He holds an important position in the Jiangning Army and has a bright future. Stop joking."

Jiang Shinian said seriously, "Sister, Brother Song told me this himself on the way. He had planned everything before we came out this time. The army will soon say that he drowned to save me."

Jiang Shiwan never expected that Song Huaizhi would pay such a huge price, and he was filled with worry for a moment.

"Xiao Nian, Brother Song is worried about us, but we can't keep bothering him. Pretend you didn't tell me about this, I'll talk to him later." "I'll listen to my sister."

Song Huaizhi bought some necessities and some food. He and Jiang Shinian cleaned up two rooms and cooked a few dishes. After everything was ready, they invited Jiang Shiwan to come for dinner.

"I haven't cooked in years, so I don't know if it will suit your taste." He naturally served Jiang Shiwan a bowl of chicken soup. "Try it. Tell me if there's anything wrong with it, and I'll try it out next time."

The hand holding the rim of the bowl trembled slightly. Jiang Shiwan buried his head in the bowl and tears flowed down.

Song Huaizhi looked at her expectantly: "How is it? Are you used to drinking it?"

Jiang Shiwan nodded, then ran out covering his mouth and spit out the chicken soup he had just drunk.

Song Huaizhi chased out: "Meimei, what's wrong? Is it too fishy?"

Jiang Shiwan shook his head: "I'm sorry, Brother Song, maybe I haven't recovered yet. I felt very comfortable when I drank it, but..."

"You are too tired. Have a good rest." Song Huaizhi handed her a cup of tea to moisten her throat. "I have found a doctor. He will come to see you tomorrow."

"It's okay, I'm probably just too tired."

"It's not suitable to stay here for long. We will move to another place soon after we rest for a few days."

"Brother Song." Jiang Shiwan turned around and looked at him. "Since the Jiang family was convicted, you are the first person willing to help us. I am really grateful. You have done your best. Xiaonian and I can handle the rest on our own."

Song Huaizhi shook his head: "Meimei, I have been taken care of by Uncle Jiang. Without him, I would not be where I am today. It can be said that everything I have was cultivated and given by Uncle Jiang. I don't think I have done much. On the contrary, I feel that I have done too little. I was powerless when you and Xiaonian had no relatives."

His tone was extremely sincere: "Give me a chance to take care of you."

"Brother Song..." Jiang Shiwan suddenly felt a sharp pain in his abdomen and squatted down, holding on to the wall.

"Meimei, what's wrong with you?" Seeing that her face was pale, Song Huaizhi immediately helped her in and lay down, asked Xiaonian to take care of her, and ran to find a doctor.

When Song Huaizhi came with the doctor, Jiang Shiwan smiled weakly: "It shouldn't be a big deal. Sorry to have worried you."

"The doctor is here, let's take a look first."

The doctor sat down to feel Jiang Shiwan's pulse. Jiang Shiwan said, "Doctor, I just found that my period has come, but it seems a little different from before."

"Hmm? Menstruation?"

"Yeah, maybe I was too tired, so I postponed it for a few days."

The doctor frowned and then said, "Madam, your pulse clearly shows that you are pregnant. The menstrual period you just mentioned should be spotting. I'm afraid there are signs of premature birth."

The three people present were all stunned, especially Song Huaizhi, who immediately looked defeated.

"Pregnant...pregnant?" Jiang Shiwan didn't know much about gynecology and thought she was just too tired. She never thought that it was not menstruation but spotting.

"Has this lady ever been injured before?"

Jiang Shiwan nodded: "My lower back was hit."

The doctor groaned and said, "That's it. Madam's pregnancy is very dangerous and she can only stay in bed. My medical skills are limited, so I can only do my best."

"As for whether the child can be kept, it depends on fate. Please rest assured, Madam."

Jiang Shiwan struggled to sit up: "Doctor, this child came at the wrong time, can you prescribe some medicine for me?"
