Value peace

Chapter 214 Spring Birth and Autumn Killing ([-])

Qi Maosheng, who happened to be returning to the Liyuan, heard Gu Xiyan's words and stood outside the curtain in a daze.

Hongyu and Mo Ju, who were carrying the ledger, came in and saw Qi Maosheng leaning against a pillar beside him with his eyes closed and his face full of pain.

They exchanged a look.

Although no one mentioned the matter of the young lady's infertility, they all had a vague understanding in their hearts.

Qi Maosheng heard light footsteps behind him, and after a while, he opened his eyes.

Seeing that it was Hongyu and Moju, he walked away quickly with a sullen face.

Both Hongyu and Moju felt a little cold in their hearts.

The Duke has never treated his wife like this before, but now, I'm afraid it's not what it used to be...

The two were stunned for a long time, Hongyu pulled Mo Ju out of the room, and whispered: "Don't say that the master has just been here."

Mo Ju nodded with tears in his eyes, and the two looked at each other again, showing a sweet smile, and then opened the curtain and entered.

When Duanniang saw the two girls coming in, she hurriedly took out her handkerchief and wiped away her tears.

Gu Xiyan raised her head, smiling at the two pretty girls who entered side by side.

Hongyu and Moju bowed to Duanniang, then took off their shoes and got on the kang.

The three of them spread out their account books around the kang.

Since the New Year's Eve last year, these girls can be regarded as real guns and knives for an internship, and then Gu Xiyan came back to hold a small meeting for everyone, summed up the shortcomings, and the girls have a bottom line , Do things more confidently.

Hongyu reported this month's accounts, and then talked about the next month's budget.

Gu Xiyan was a little absent-minded, when Hongyu talked about next month's budget, Gu Xiyan suddenly asked: "Mo Ju, what is the name of the young man surnamed Tian who sent you here last time, do you remember? "

Gu Xi suddenly changed the subject and asked a question that made Mo Ju blush, and everyone was stunned.

"Do you remember his name?" Gu Xiyan asked again, ignoring everyone's expressions.

Mo Ju collected herself, and said, "I don't know. I only know that the surname is Tian, ​​and that he is the nephew of Lord Tian Jing's family." As he spoke, his face turned red involuntarily.

Gu Xiyan looked at Mo Ju and smiled, and said: "I was so sad because I was so patronizing, but I forgot about Mo Ju!" In her tone, there was infinite sigh.

Mo Ju was most afraid of Gu Xiyan's haggard look, now that she was interested in talking, she didn't care about being ashamed, and said, "Ma'am, why do you ask this?"

Gu Xiyan smiled and said, "Which one of you should go to Qinyuan and tell the master that I want to meet that twelve young lady from the Liu family!"

Everyone looked at each other, not knowing what happened to Gu Xiyan.

The news reached Qi Maosheng, but Qi Maosheng didn't care.

Maybe he wanted to ask about the news of the members of the Gu family.

During this period of time, the emperor obeyed the imperial concubine Gu's words, and under the arrangement of the imperial concubine, Min Jie, who entered the palace with Jian Qing that year, is now six months pregnant, and has been promoted to the third rank Jieyu.Mi Ji also went to Gu's house from time to time, whether Mrs. Gu or Gu Panxi, they were all safe and quiet, there was nothing wrong with it.

"Then send someone to pass it on soon." Qi Maosheng ordered casually, and then turned his head to discuss with Mr. Ding about the food army for the Yan army in Liangdi.

As he was talking, he felt something was wrong in his heart, and suddenly called Siping in: "Go and see the Liyuan!"

Siping got such an inexplicable order, but still ran to the Liyuan in a hurry.

Everything seems to be fine!

The maidservants did whatever they were supposed to do. The lady was sitting on the kang table embroidering flowers, accompanied by Duan Niang, chatting with each other.

The little girls saw Siping and knew that it was the master who asked him to ask for information, so they all gathered around and chattered: "Brother Siping, what did the master ask you to ask!"

Siping touched his head with a smile, and said: "Just let me see, what is Madam doing!"

The little girls smiled and said: "Madam has been embroidering all day today!"

Siping stood for a long while feeling his head in confusion, and then returned to Qinyuan.

At noon, Maosheng stayed in Qinyuan for lunch, during which time he asked Siping: "What did you say?"

Siping said cautiously: "If you go back to the master, the madam will spend a whole day embroidering on the kang!"

"Where's Auntie Duan?"

"How about talking with me?"

"What did they say?"

Siping recalled it for a long time, and said: "It's random, the villain just remembers a few sentences here and there."

"Tell me about it!"

"Yes." Siping narrated as non-judgmentally as possible, "Madam asked Aunt Duan whether she liked Yongzhou or not. Aunt Duan said that it was the same everywhere. Madam asked Aunt Duan again, if you could choose, do you like Yongzhou? I still like Shuzhou. Duanniang thought for a while, and said, "I like Yongzhou. She also said that there is no one in her hometown in Shuzhou. A distant nephew and nephew's daughter-in-law always want her to make a little money every day. It's not interesting either. Madam said, no matter what, it's always good to have a younger generation to take care of her. She also said, or else, choose a favorite among these little girls, keep it under her knees, and raise her in a few years , and find a son-in-law for the little girl, and I will have someone to rely on in the future..."

When Siping said this, Qi Maosheng jumped up,
He threw away his half-eaten meal and hurried to the pear garden.

The pear garden was quiet, only the one named Yunshang was standing under the eaves to serve.

Normally, Gu Xiyan would smile when she saw him, and would hug him regardless of etiquette. He really thought that the fewer people there were, the better, but when he saw it today, his heart was ablaze.

Qi Maosheng's face was ashen, and he said sharply: "Where are you guys going... The master hasn't rested yet, you're going to rest... don't you want to live anymore..."

It was the first time that people in Liyuan saw Qi Maosheng get angry.

With sharp eyes, blunt expression, and cold temperament, the whole body exudes a murderous aura that makes people feel cold.

The rules of the Liyuan were set on the first day Gu Xiyan entered the garden, and there was never a second voice.Now being yelled at by Qi Maosheng, everyone ran out tremblingly, standing at the corner door or under the eaves, looking at each other, not knowing what to do.

Of course Gu Xiyan heard it too, and quickly gave Auntie Duan a wink, and after taking off her shoes, she was about to go out to have a look, when she lifted the mat, she bumped into Qi Maosheng.

"What's the matter..." Before Gu Xiyan finished speaking, Qi Maosheng hugged her in his arms, and the hot kisses fell down densely: "Xiyan, Xiyan..."

While calling Gu Xiyan's name, he began to roughly untie her skirt.

"Maosheng, what's wrong with you..." In astonishment, Qi Maosheng threw the disheveled Gu Xiyan onto the mat on the kang, and began to take off his clothes.

Duanniang let out an "oops" and hurriedly took the person who was serving Gu Xiyan out of the room.

* * * * * *
In addition to pain, it still hurts...

Gu Xiyan looked helplessly at Qi Maosheng who was coming in and out of her body.

What happened?

As if he wanted to vent something on her... The corners of his eyes and brows were also full of pain.

But it is such pain, how long can I feel it...

Thinking of this, Gu Xiyan's eyelashes filled with tears, her heart softened, and she hugged Qi Maosheng tenderly.

The cold hand caressed him gently...

Qi Maosheng suddenly woke up.

Looking at Gu Xiyan who was smiling with tears in his eyes, he buried his head in his black hair exuding a faint pure fragrance as if evading: "Xiyan, don't go, don't go anywhere... We will have children... There will definitely be children... Let's go to Qixia Temple in Shengjing..."

Is it because of this?

Gu Xiyan felt distressed in her heart, hugged Qi Maosheng tightly, and said "yes" softly.

* * * * * *
From that day on, Qi Maosheng went to the Liyuan as if on official business, and the two of them leaned one way and the other on the big kang by the window, Gu Xiyan embroidered flowers, and Qi Maosheng read the official documents.

Sometimes, Qi Maosheng looked up: "Isn't your embroidery very good? You need to practice again!"

Gu Xiyan smiled softly at him, thinking of Liu Meier.

She gave birth to a boy in Shengjing in June this year.

If I hadn't intervened in it, Maosheng would have become a father already!

Her heart was full of sadness, and the embroidery needle stuck in her hand.

From the fingertips as white as jade, a drop of blood soon oozes out.

"Why are you so careless!" Qi Maosheng, who was dual-purpose, immediately discovered Gu Xiyan's situation, took her hand, and put his bloody fingertips in his mouth.

Feeling the warmth of her fingertips, Gu Xiyan looked at Qi Maosheng tenderly: "Maosheng, come forward and talk to Tian Jing, I want to marry Mo Ju to his nephew named Tian Zhong."

Qi Maosheng froze all over.

"I've inquired about it. He used to order a doll marriage. The woman passed away five years ago..." Gu Xiyan said with a smile, "I'm 20 years old this year, three years older than Mo Ju. But at his age, he's pretty good..."

Two days ago, I asked Liu's twelfth young lady to buy a green tile house with three entrances in Yongzhou Crooked Neck Hutong, and today she said that she would marry Mo Ju... What else do I want, what else do I want to do, seek medical advice for her Medicine, worshiping gods and incense for her, and even decided to take a trip to Shengjing... But what about her?Drink the decocted medicine if you want to drink it, and don’t drink it if you don’t want to drink it. The auspicious talisman I asked for, I threw it in the corner without even looking at it. It was the jade peach bonsai given by Mrs. Wei. She moved it aside under the pretext of being too expensive. Mirror stand...

Those unspeakable grievances turned into hostility and floated on his face.

With a slap, he slapped the kang beside him to pieces: "Gu Xiyan, you, you, you don't know what to do!"

Patience, are you exhausted?

A faint smile appeared on Gu Xiyan's face, but there was a sharp insight in her eyes.

Under such gazes, Qi Maosheng suddenly felt a little embarrassed.

Distraught, he walked away.

Duanniang, who was already in a panic, had already stood anxiously outside the house when Qi Maosheng slapped the table. When she saw Qi Maosheng coming out, she hurriedly smiled and called "Master", Qi Maosheng didn't even look at Duanniang, and walked out of the pear garden .

Duanniang rushed to the back room.

Messy pieces of paper were flying around her, and there was a broken piece of wood between the hem of her skirt. Gu Xiyan had a faint smile on her lips, and she was embroidering flowers with a peaceful expression.

There is nothing more sad than heart death!

Duanniang only felt cold in her heart, she knelt on the edge of the kang and pulled Gu Xiyan's skirt and began to cry: "My good girl, just tell me what you have...I would rather you Like the last time I made a fuss about drinking flowers and wine for my master, I feel better!"

Gu Xiyan put down the embroidery frame with a smile, and said softly: "Auntie, everyone has a bottom line. Mine is to hope that there will be no other women when Maosheng is with me; Take a concubine as long as you don't have a son... What else is there to talk about, what else is there to make a fuss about... It's just that I don't give up, I always want to stay by his side for a while, in the future, I just want to see, I'm afraid I won't have this chance ..."

"No, no," Duanniang shook her head in horror, "What nonsense are you talking about! Even if the future master has a concubine, you are still an upright first wife, no, no... "

Gu Xiyan smiled lightly, lowered her head and continued to embroider her flowers, her eyes were extremely serious and pious!
* * * * * *
Qi Maosheng rode a horse and galloped on the streets of Yongzhou, seeing the panicked crowd and the passing street scene, but the anger stuck in his heart seemed to be condensed into a ball and could not be dissipated.

Xiyan, how could you be like this... you don't even want to fight... this makes me sadder than not having children, do you know...do you know...
