the seventh bride

Chapter 78

"What? You forced her to take medicine?" The old lady yelled sharply again, then stepped up, raised her hand and patted him on the head again: "Since she doesn't want to take it, then why force her?" ? Next time, I'll clean you up like this."

Nangong Chen frowned, and called out in great protest: "Grandma..."

"It's okay, don't stick around here, go back to your room." The old lady said to him.

It was the first time he met such an inexplicable old lady Nan Gongchen, and he didn't want to stay any longer, so he took one last look at Bai Muqing, and walked towards the door of the bedroom with a gloomy expression.

As soon as Nangong Chen left, the old lady came over immediately, looked at Bai Muqing and asked anxiously, "Have you taken the medicine?"

Bai Muqing nodded her head cautiously: "Eat."

When the old lady heard this, she gasped in anger.

"Grandma, I'm sorry, Eldest Young Master is too strong, I can't resist at all." After taking cold medicine in the early stages of pregnancy, Bai Muqing was also worried.

Seeing the worried and angry look of the old lady, she who was already afraid of an accident became even more flustered.

The old lady was angry: "How many times have I told you to take good care of your body, why did you suddenly catch a cold?"

Bai Muqing lowered her head guiltily, she didn't dare to tell the old lady that she caught a cold because of the wind blowing by the river yesterday.

Sister He glanced at Bai Muqing, stepped forward and took the old lady's arm to comfort her: "Old lady, it's useless for you to be angry about this kind of thing, maybe it's not as bad as you imagined? Let the doctor come over to diagnose the young lady first Bar."

The old lady knew this very well, so she had to ask Sister He to call the family doctor to come over as soon as possible.

The family doctor rushed over quickly, and after looking at the medicine Bai Muqing took, he comforted the old lady: "Madam, don't worry, this kind of cold medicine will not have a great impact on the fetus, and the young lady only took three pills, so it shouldn't be too serious." problematic."

"Should...?" The old lady looked at him: "So there will be more?"

"Old madam, the medicine is three-point poisonous. Even ordinary people will be affected by how much medicine they take. It's just because of their physique." After the doctor finished speaking, he added: "I think the young lady's physique is quite good." , being able to eat and drink is no different from an idler, so I don’t think it will be affected.”

Hearing what the doctor said, the old lady was a little relieved, but she was still a little worried: "Is there no chemical medicine to eat?"

"Yes, I will prescribe some for the young lady later." The doctor said.

After the doctor left, Sister He saw that the old lady still looked preoccupied, and said with a smile: "Old lady, it turns out that those who have not serious morning sickness will have a son. I guess the young lady's child must be a son."

The old lady sighed lightly, and said, "That must be healthy."

"Healthy, the doctor said it must be healthy, so don't worry about it."

The old lady nodded her head, then stared at Bai Muqing who was on the bed and said sternly: "Put on more clothes from today, and keep warm when the weather is cold, so you don't get sick again."

"I see, grandma." Bai Muqing responded with a low eyebrow.

*****
Fortunately, this time the cold was not serious. After taking the traditional Chinese medicine granules prescribed by the doctor, Bai Muqing's cold gradually got better.

In the evening, Nangong Chen looked at her suspiciously, and finally asked the doubt in his heart: "Recently, you and grandma get along well?"

Bai Muqing was still angry about what happened in the morning and ignored him.

Sitting in front of the easel, she silently drew the shape of the small grain with a pencil.She promised to draw a sketch for Xiaoli, but until the day Xiaoli left, she couldn't fulfill his little wish, and she felt extremely ashamed when she thought about it.

Tomorrow is Xiaoli's first seven days, and she has to draw a sketch and send it to him, so that he won't feel lonely down there.

Xiaoli once said that as long as he is accompanied by the paintings she gave him, he will not feel lonely.

Nangong Chen stood beside her, watching her meticulously draw and outline Xiaoli's appearance but ignored him, and walked away resentfully, either staying or staying.

It was the first time that a woman dared to put on a face to him. The woman in front of him really broke his too many firsts.It's just that although he realized this, he didn't get angry, but asked instead: "When will you draw me a picture?"

Is he flirting?Nangong Chen asked himself, when did he fall to the point of trying to please a woman?It shouldn't be!

In order to regain his almost lost self-esteem, he immediately changed his words: "Go and put me in hot water, I want to take a bath."

Bai Muqing was left speechless by his continuous jumping thoughts, but she didn't serve him obediently as usual, she still waved the paintbrush in her hand and said coolly: "Sorry, I'm not free."

"Bai Ying'an, what do you mean?" Nangong Chen was provoked by her, and he grabbed the pencil from her hand and stared at her: "You're playing with me, right? You'd better think about whether you want to keep it like this."

"I've thought it through!" Bai Muqing raised her hand and pulled the pencil back from his hand: "Master Nangong, from now on you will follow your Yangguan Road, and I will cross my single-plank bridge. Let's not cross the river!"

"you sure?"

"Sure!"

"you……."

"What about me? You're going to stuff my mouth with medicine again?" Bai Muqing looked at him angrily.

Nangong Chen glanced at her and sneered: "If I hadn't stuffed the medicine in your mouth, your cold would have recovered so quickly?"

Bai Muqing was speechless, this man really knows how to seek credit!
But what he said seemed to make sense. If he hadn't forced her to take those three pills, she would definitely not have recovered from her cold so quickly just relying on the Chinese medicine granules prescribed by the doctor.

Besides, he didn't know that she was pregnant, and he forced her to take medicine to make her recover as soon as possible. Thinking about it this way, although he was a bit domineering, it was not so unforgivable.

No, why did she start to loosen her position again?How can I find an excuse for myself to forgive him?If what he forced himself to take was amoxicillin or something, wouldn't she rush to the hospital immediately for gastric lavage?

"Young master, you can go out now." Bai Muqing said to him expressionlessly, then lowered her head and continued to draw her own picture.

Nangong Chen didn't have the patience to dawdle with her here, and turned to walk towards the study.

*****
The next day, Bai Muqing came to Xiaoli's tomb and brought him the sketch she had drawn.

"I'm sorry, it's a bit late to finish this painting." She sniffed her nose lightly, and tried her best to smile: "Xiaoli won't blame Teacher Bai, right?"

For Xiaoli, besides guilt and regret, she regretted not being able to give him the painting when he was still alive.

After staying with Xiaoli in the cemetery for a while, Bai Muqing turned and walked towards the entrance of the cemetery.

At the gate of the cemetery, she saw a familiar car, a look of surprise flashed in her eyes, and she turned around and walked in another direction.

"Mu Qing..." Lin Annan opened the door to get out of the car, chased after her and said, "Don't leave yet."

Bai Muqing rolled her eyes in her heart, she was everywhere, it seemed that it was difficult to pretend she couldn't see him.

She turned her head, with an extremely hypocritical smile on her face: "Young Master Lin, what a coincidence, what's the matter?"

"I just went to the orphanage to look for you. I heard from the children that you came to the cemetery, so I rushed here." Lin Annan smiled and said.

When Bai Muqing heard his words, she immediately became annoyed, she couldn't even put on a fake smile, she stared angrily and said, "Young Master Lin! What are you asking me for? Didn't I already tell you that I didn't treat you well?" Interest, and, don't you give up if you don't completely piss off Nangong Chen?"

"Mu Qing..."

"Let me remind you, you won't end well if you offend Mao Nangong Chen, you should do it yourself!" Bai Muqing turned around and left after finishing speaking.

Lin Annan said to her back: "I have business with you."

Bai Muqing paused, turned around and looked at him: "What's the matter? I'll give you 3 minutes to clarify."

Lin Annan stepped up, stood still in front of her, did not talk about business, but stared at her solemnly and said: "I don't want to make my cousin angry, and I never thought of robbing him of women, if you and him can love each other for a lifetime, Then I will definitely not destroy you. But now you know what is going on with him, and when you and Ying'an switch identities, you will have nothing to do with him."

Bai Muqing clenched her hands slowly, repeating this thing to her again, this thing she didn't want to face but had to face!

"I also said that even if I have nothing to do with him in the future, it will have nothing to do with you. The relationship between me and you was over when you switched to Bai Ying'an's arms. If this is what you said If it’s a business, I’m sorry, but I don’t think it’s a business, and I don’t think it’s necessary to discuss it with someone who is not related to you.”

"Mu Qing." Seeing that she was about to leave again, Lin Annan stretched out his hand to hold her in desperation.

Bai Muqing stared angrily at the big palm on her arm, and said angrily, "Master Lin, do you want to be photographed and reported by someone with malicious intentions like last time?"

"Shoot as soon as you shoot, at worst, ask Ying'an to clarify." Lin Annan disagreed.

"you……."

"What about me?" Lin Annan laughed mockingly: "Bai Ying'an is now dreaming of her Mrs. Nangong's wife all day long, and she is very happy with this kind of small favor that is beneficial to her."

"Master Lin, please let go." Bai Muqing secretly decided that if he didn't let go, she would bite down.

As expected, Lin Annan let go, but still blocked her way: "Okay, let me tell you something serious, I heard you went back to Yancheng a few days ago?"

"It doesn't seem to be your business, does it?"

"It's none of my business, but I remember that you have been looking for the cause of your grandmother's death. I just happen to be free recently, and I can help you investigate this matter."

Bai Muqing was slightly surprised, she did mention this matter to Lin Annan before, but Lin Annan didn't take it too seriously at the time.After all, demolition of dead people is a common occurrence, and no one finds it strange.

You didn't advocate helping her investigate at the beginning, but now you say you want to help her investigate?

"No need, I will investigate by myself." Bai Muqing said indifferently, she didn't want to get involved with Lin Annan again because of this matter.

This time, she directly pushed his body away with her hands, and walked out of the cemetery.

Lin Annan looked at her leaving back, felt her deep alienation, and couldn't help but feel a little frustrated.

It's just that the more Bai Muqing alienates him, the more he wants to conquer her. This is probably what a man calls a desire to conquer.

But he wasn't worried. He had already figured out what a woman was, and it was made of water. He didn't believe that with his unremitting efforts, he wouldn't be able to impress her.

Lin Annan's car stopped beside Bai Muqing, the window slowly rolled down, and he said to Bai Muqing, "This place is too far from the city, there are no taxis coming."

"So what?"

"I'll take you back."

"No need, I've already called the driver over." Bai Muqing turned her head and threw him a sentence, then raised her hands to cover her ears, not wanting to hear another word from him.

Lin Annan followed her for a while, and finally stopped forcing her, and increased the speed to drive the car away.

*****
Although she rejected Lin Annan's kindness, but when he mentioned it, Bai Muqing thought about her grandma being forced to death again.

She sat on the terrace, holding a glass of water in her hand, meditating quietly.

In fact, she wanted to go and investigate this matter before, but her mother Zhu Hui scolded her angrily, which probably meant that even her uncle himself did not pursue this matter, so what is she meddling in?

Being stopped by her mother in this way and encountering so many things, she had no choice but to let it go.

What's more, she doesn't even know who is the person who bought the small courtyard of the Zhu family, and she doesn't even know where to start.

The mobile phone on the desktop beeped a message, it was from Bai Yingan's special number, the message was only two short words 'diary', she understood it in just two words.

She picked up the phone and said back to her: "I see."

Writing about life has become her daily homework, and she can't miss a day.

She put down the water glass and went back to the bedroom, took out the laptop, turned it on, and began to record every bit of her past two days.

Considering that she and Bai Ying'an have not seen each other for a long time, I don't know how her preparations are doing.Three months seems to be coming soon.

"I really didn't realize that you still have the hobby of writing a diary." A mocking voice suddenly sounded from behind.Startled, Bai Muqing instinctively closed the computer, then turned around and stared at him angrily.

"Why are you so flustered? Isn't it just a few journal entries?" Nan Gongchen cast a disdainful glance at the closed laptop.

It's not like writing a love letter, so why such a big reaction?
Bai Muqing secretly heaved a sigh of relief, secretly glad that what he saw was only the document he wrote about his life, and he didn't see the scene of sending the diary.

She deliberately raised her eyebrows and said reproachfully, "Master! Can you knock on the door first when you enter my room next time?"

"I've knocked many times, but you haven't been able to hear it." Nan Gongchen said innocently: "Besides, if I go into my own room, do I need to knock?"

"I live in this room now, so you have to knock on the door every time you come in."

"OK, I'll knock louder next time." He walked to another chair and sat down.

Bai Muqing unconsciously leaned a little closer, and glanced at him: "What are you doing? Is there something wrong?"

"Grandma blamed me for not taking time to accompany you, so I had no choice but to come up." Nangong Chen looked back at her: "Why? No welcome?"

"Do you still need to ask? 100% not welcome."

"Okay, then I'm leaving," Nan Gongchen said and stood up from the chair.

Seeing that he was really going to leave, Bai Muqing felt a little bit of reluctance in her heart, and in desperation she raised her hand to grab his wrist.

It was only after pulling him that she realized that she seemed to be making fun of herself again. What was she doing?Are you missing him?How can you be reluctant to part with a man who doesn't take himself seriously at all?

"That...please pour me a glass of water." She pointed to the water glass on the table with her chin.

This reason... should be okay, right?

Nangong Chen looked in the direction she pointed, her water glass was indeed half empty, but...

"Are you asking me to pour water for you?" He frowned slightly.

What a big breath.

Bai Muqing also felt that it was impossible, the words were said without thinking, and now she felt that she had put forward an incredible condition when he asked him such a rhetorical question.

"Why... can't you?" She bit the bullet and asked back.

"What do you think?" Nangong Chen sneered: "I have never poured water for anyone else in my life, except grandma."

"Pouring a glass of water is not a very difficult task, so just pour her a glass." It wasn't Bai Muqing who said this, and she didn't have the courage to say such a thing.

The two turned their heads at the same time, watching the old lady walk in slowly accompanied by Sister He.

"Grandma." Bai Muqing stood up from the forest, and nodded to her politely.

The old lady glanced at her, looked at Nangong Chen and said: "Although you must be principled in doing things, it's okay to make an exception once in a while, and you will feel tired if you carry it too much."

Although the Nangong family has never had a precedent for a man to serve a woman, but who made Bai Muqing a national treasure now?She is Feng Zai, but she is pregnant with the son of her Nangong family.

Nangong Chen looked at the old lady in surprise, it doesn't seem like she would say this?Grandma has been so abnormal recently.

Although Bai Muqing has a good temper, works hard without complaint, and is very considerate in serving others, but it is not possible to capture grandma's sincerity in such a short period of time, right?

How attractive is this woman?Nangong Chen suddenly realized that he seemed to be influenced by this woman in many things.

I have to admit, she just has this ability!
The old lady deliberately turned to Bai Muqing, and said to her in a reproachful tone: "You too, you will be bored in the room all day long, the young master did not marry you just for display."

Bai Muqing who was named was startled, and looked at her: "Grandma means..."

"The eldest young master is already very tired after working for a week, shouldn't you accompany him for a walk around on weekends to relax?" The old lady seemed to be concerned about Nangong Chen on the surface, but in fact she was concerned about Bai Muqing.

After returning from Yancheng, Bai Muqing spent almost all of her time in the room except for a banquet and then seeing Xiaoliu, so it's no wonder that she didn't get sick from boredom.

Bai Muqing could naturally hear the meaning of the old lady's words, she secretly glanced at Nangong Chen, and fell silent.

Nan Gongchen was worried that the old lady would force him to go out with Bai Muqing again, so he hurriedly said, "Grandma, I don't plan to go out today, I want to rest at home."

"The doctor said, you need to go out and do more activities so that you don't get sick so easily." The old lady said.

This is the truth, the doctor did persuade Nangong Chen not to make himself too tired, but to go out more to relax, but Nangong Chen has always been only interested in work, and rarely goes out for leisure activities.

So no matter it is for the good of Bai Muqing and the fetus, or for the good of Nan Gongchen, it is very necessary to throw them out of the house.

"Go, let Lao Wang take you to the street for a walk." The old lady added.

The old lady kept saying that it was for his own good, and Nangong Chen couldn't do anything to refuse, so he kept silent, turned around and walked towards the door of the bedroom.

The old lady turned to Bai Muqing and winked at her: "Go quickly."

Bai Muqing got up like this and left the bedroom behind Nangong Chen.

Nangong Chen didn't have the slightest interest in shopping, so when Lao Wang asked him where he wanted to go shopping, he just threw him a sentence: "Don't ask me about this."

Old Wang then asked Bai Muqing instead, Bai Muqing thought about it, shopping was really not interesting, and there was nothing to buy.

"Why don't you go to Sea Paradise?" she said.

She and Lin Annan had been to that place before, and it was a very suitable place for leisure.

Seeing that Nangong Chen had no objection, Lao Wang then drove the car to the Sea Paradise.

Sea Paradise is located on the west coast, and it has all kinds of entertainment facilities and food. Many of the people who come here are couples, and each couple is holding hands and shoulder to shoulder. Bai Muqing looks envious.

As far as the relationship between her and Nangong Chen is concerned, they shouldn't get together here at all.

But since they have already come here, it is impossible to just go back. Many girls around are paying attention to Nan Gongchen, and they don't know if they recognize his identity.

In order to make those women give up, Bai Muqing quickly caught up with Nan Gongchen, and put her arms around his arms.

Nangong Chen lowered his head and glanced at her, but did not shake her off.

Feeling relieved, Bai Muqing asked with a smile: "How about we go and have fun? Take a boat? No, I'm afraid I'll throw up, why don't we go and see the sea view."

She planned on her own, Nangong Chen still had no intention of objecting, anyway, he is not interested in everything here, so she can do whatever she wants.

The two had just passed a small road and arrived at the small square of the Sea Paradise when Bai Muqing's footsteps suddenly stopped.

Nangong Chen felt her pause, turned his head, and saw her drooling at a dessert stand.

Bai Muqing hasn't eaten ice cream for a long time, and it's her favorite brand, she is debating whether to buy one to enjoy herself.

It's just an ice cream, so it shouldn't have any effect on the baby, right?She convinced herself secretly in her heart.But if anything happened, she would hate her gluttonously for the rest of her life.

"Do you want to buy it or not?" Nangong Chen looked at her, not understanding how an ice cream was worth her consideration for so long.

Bai Muqing licked her lips and decided to bear it.

Just at this time, a pregnant woman walked out of the dessert stand accompanied by her husband, happily licking the ice cream in her hand.

Everyone else dared to eat one, so I could just eat one myself. Bai Muqing, who finally found a reason to comfort herself, nodded: "I want to eat it."
