The Hidden Beauty

Chapter 13 Come back with me
After taking the medicine prescribed by Doctor Zhou, Jiang Shiwan's reaction was still severe.

He vomited several times a day, had a much worse appetite, and was visibly losing weight.

After five or six days, Doctor Zhou introduced Doctor Mei, saying that he was a close friend of his who traveled around the country and had excellent medical skills. He heard that a lady was suffering from morning sickness, so he came specially to take her pulse.

Sure enough, under Dr. Mei's treatment, Jiang Shiwan's morning sickness symptoms were relieved, but she still had no appetite.

Song Huaizhi patiently prepared food for her in various ways: "At least eat something."

Jiang Shiwan covered his nose and pushed the bowl away: "Brother Song, I really can't eat anymore, I want to vomit."

Song Huaizhi hurriedly took the food out: "Okay, I won't eat anymore."

It was already early spring, and the scent of fragrant grass occasionally seeped into the house with the warm breeze. Jiang Shiwan couldn't help but take a deep breath: "This smells so good, Brother Song, I want to go for a walk outside."

Song Huaizhi was a little embarrassed: "But Doctor Mei said your pulse is unstable..."

"I've been taking medicine for ten days, and I'm much better now." Jiang Shiwan looked at him eagerly, "I've been lying down for the past few days and I'm almost falling apart. I just smelled the scent of green grass and it felt very comfortable."

Uh... Song Huaizhi was secretly puzzled. This pregnant woman was really strange.

This house was built on the hillside, with a lush tea mountain behind it.

After days of running around, Meng Tingzhou looked a little tired.

At this moment, he was looking at the yard with bloodshot eyes. Song Huaizhi supported Jiang Shiwan and walked slowly. The two of them talked and laughed from time to time.

The scene hurt his eyes.

She had once been by his side, selling her smiles and entertaining him in order to survive, but she had never shown such a sincere and gentle side.

"Has Song Huaizhi been taking care of you these days?"

Pei Qing hesitated for a moment, but still stepped forward.

"Yes, because the doctor surnamed Zhou said that Miss Jiang's pulse was unstable and she had to stay in bed. I was afraid that if I showed up rashly, it would scare her, so I only dared to send Doctor Mei to examine her."

"I have failed to perform my duties properly, please punish me, Governor."

"Go back and get twenty lashes of the cane."

"Thank you, Commander."

After drinking Doctor Mei's medicine, Jiang Shiwan felt sleepy. He walked in the yard for a while and then went back to rest.

Song Huaizhi settled him down and walked out.

It seemed that the military general was naturally sensitive. He felt a sharp gaze behind him and turned around.

But Meng Tingzhou, dressed in a dark robe, stood with his hands behind his back, a cold look on his brows.

Song Huaizhi was startled: "...See the Left Commander."

Meng Tingzhou curled his lips and said, "My wife is ill. Thanks to Song Dushi for taking care of her these days. I will definitely reward you handsomely."

After saying that, he wanted to push the door open and go in.

"Commander-in-chief." Song Huaizhi stretched out his hand to block the door. "Meimei is overly worried. This pregnancy was very difficult and she can't stand any stimulation."

Meng Tingzhou's face turned pale. He actually called her Meimei!

"I love her so much that I can't bear to let her suffer. Please don't worry about our private affairs."

Knowing that the other party was in a high position and powerful, and that he was just a small official, Song Huaizhi did not know where he got the courage from at this moment, and he sneered, "Isn't this taking advantage of someone's misfortune to rob him?"

Meng Tingzhou glanced at him and shouted, "Pei Qing, Yu Feng." The two of them directly restrained Song Huaizhi and led him out of the house.

Meng Tingzhou punched him in the face.

Song Huaizhi stepped back a few steps, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, looked at Meng Tingzhou, and suddenly knelt down: "Governor, let her go."

Meng Tingzhou's breathing stagnated slightly: "For a woman, Song Dushi is so humble."

Song Huaizhi said earnestly: "She may be just a woman to the governor, but to me, she is someone I want to protect at all costs." "Song Huaizhi! If you dare to say another word, the governor will cut off your tongue and feed it to the dogs!"

"She is my woman, and she is pregnant with my child. Do you think that blowing her up and running away with her is true love? Bullshit!"

Song Huaizhi knew that the vicious Left Commander was even more cruel than the rumors said, so it would be useless to say more to him. He slowly stood up and asked, "Does the Commander think that living in luxury is a kind treatment?"

"The governor may not know how Uncle Jiang raised his daughter Meimei. He never asked her to learn needlework. He gave her the greatest freedom and respect and never forced her to do anything she didn't like."

Meng Tingzhou interrupted him: "Song Dushi is exaggerating, right? Is Jiang Xingyuan respecting her by marrying her to Shen Yunqi?"

"No, the governor doesn't know that the world was in a critical situation at that time, and Uncle Jiang could only seek help from the Duke's Mansion." He looked at Meng Tingzhou, "The Jiang family will not marry into the Governor's Mansion."

This was Meng Tingzhou's pain point. He clenched his fists and tried to remain indifferent: "Why is this?"

Song Huaizhi laughed: "Can't the governor guess it? How can His Majesty allow the Governor's Office and the Ministry of War to form a relationship?"

"Brother Song, are you telling the truth?" Jiang Shiwan stood at the door with pale lips.

Meng Tingzhou had never thought of telling her the answer in this way, but in order not to force her and make her willingly go back with him, he could only use this method.

He looked at the man, who was thin and haggard, and almost frail.

"Didn't I tell you that I would tell you about the Jiang family after I return triumphantly? Are you so impatient to leave?"

Jiang Shiwan bit his lip and remained silent.

Meng Tingzhou suppressed the emotions surging in his chest and rested his chin against her ear: "Come back with me, and avenge your father after An Xin gives birth to the child."

As if he had guessed his motive, Song Huaizhi was horrified: "Meimei, don't do it."

"Everything Uncle Jiang did was for you."

Meng Tingzhou held her in his arms, breathing in her unique scent: "You have always been unwilling to let your father bear the guilt, right?"

Jiang Shiwan closed his eyes, tears streaming down his face, "Yes, I am unwilling to accept this."

He could spy on her.

She gently broke free from Meng Tingzhou's arms and bowed to Song Huaizhi: "Brother Song is like a father to me and my younger brother."

As if his blood had been sucked out, Song Huaizhi stood there in a daze: "Meimei, are you really going back to the capital?"

Jiang Shiwan saw the reluctance in his eyes, looked away and nodded firmly: "Brother Song, the Jiang family has been loyal for three generations. If my father was framed, I, as a descendant of the Jiang family, must seek justice."

She is a favored child of heaven, has her own dignity and pride, and will never allow others to trample on her.

"Brother Song, you are my father's favorite student and his pride. You have your own future and life, don't let me drag you down."

Eventually, you will let down such deep affection and the past, and eventually you will have to make a decision for the rest of your life.

Jiang Shiwan's steps were unsteady. Seeing her fall, Meng Tingzhou rushed forward to hug her: "Call Doctor Mei! Quick!"
