Value peace

Chapter 250

During this time, Mrs. Wei used the excuse of being ill to tidy up the Dongzi Pavilion next to Mrs. Xu, and would occasionally rest there.

When Qi Maosheng and Gu Xiyan were about to enter the house, Mrs. Wei rushed over from the next door with Bao Niang and Qin Niang, and they met under the eaves.

Seeing Qi Maosheng, Mrs. Wei just said "I'm back" lightly, and she paid great attention to Gu Xiyan, and said angrily: "It's snowing and the sky is dark, why do you need to go this far, let Maosheng Just come alone."

Ever since Gu Xiyan came back from Chunli, Mrs. Wei even avoided her curtsey.

Gu Xiyan could quite understand her mood, and said with a smile: "I eat and sleep every day, and I want to take this opportunity to walk around."

Mrs. Wei is also a person who has been here. If counted according to the child's life, the child is more than four months old, so it doesn't matter if he moves, and moving around properly is also good for childbirth.But she was really worried in her heart, for fear that something might happen.

There was a strong north wind blowing outside.

Bao Niang hurriedly raised the curtain and invited everyone in.

A group of people entered the room, and Bao Niang hurriedly brought a grand master's chair with thick cushions for Gu Xiyan to sit on, and then called people to serve tea.

Qi Maosheng looked at Mrs. Wei's radiant face, hesitant to speak.

Nine out of ten times his son was unhappy in front of him, and Mrs. Wei didn't even bother to care about it.I just talked to Gu Xiyan: "I heard that you still use Mrs. Xu's Nanny Cai to be in charge of this year's New Year's Eve dinner! I don't think she is suitable, let Zhang Nanny take care of it. When Aunt Gao was there before, Nanny Zhang is in charge of Shangzhengju, she has experience, so she won't spoil your business!"

Gu Xiyan smiled and said: "Because it's the end of the year and there are too many things to do, it's better to be quiet than to move. I'll discuss it with you again after the New Year is over!"

Madam Wei nodded in satisfaction.

When Qi Maosheng saw him, he frowned slightly, got up and said, "Xiyan, let's go in and see Mrs. Xu!"

Gu Xiyan rose in response, and followed Qi Maosheng into Mrs. Xu's bedroom.

Because it was winter, the fire wall was burned in the house, and the windows were closed tightly, so the air seemed a bit dull.

A woman serving at Mrs. Xu's bed saw Qi Maosheng and his wife, and hurriedly stepped forward to salute them.

Qi Maosheng looked at Miansheng, then took a look at Gu Xiyan.

Gu Xiyan hurriedly explained: "This is Nanny Fan. She used to be by Aunt Gao's side and knows a little bit about medicine. Mrs. Wei specially sent her to serve Mrs. Xu!"

Qi Maosheng nodded, then walked over and sat by Mrs. Xu's bed.

Mrs. Xu was lying on her back on the bed, covered with a beautiful blue mattress. Her once beautiful facial features, eyes and mouth were crooked.

Seeing Qi Maosheng, the corners of her mouth twitched slightly, and it took a long time before she let out a "Huh!" sound.

Qi Maosheng sighed softly and said with a smile: "Mother, I heard that you are ill. I came back from He County to see you."

The corners of Mrs. Xu's mouth trembled violently, and she shouted a few times with difficulty, but because of the slurred speech, no one could understand what she said.

Qi Maosheng thought for a moment, and said: "Just focus on self-cultivation, and don't worry about family matters. I will take care of Yuguan, and I will let Xiyan enlighten her on Shaoqin's side... They are still young. There will be children in the future..."

When Mrs. Xu heard it, there was a look of begging in her eyes.

Qi Maosheng's eyes suddenly became sharp: "Don't worry, as long as Yu Guan is still my nephew, I will protect him all the time!"

As soon as he finished speaking, there was the sound of broken porcelain outside, but Mrs. Xu's withered eyes became slightly moist...

When they walked out of Xianji courtyard, the sky was snowing again.

Qi Maosheng held an umbrella in one hand and hugged Gu Xiyan in the other, and walked slowly towards Songzhen Courtyard.

Looking at Qi Maosheng's cold face, Gu Xiyan couldn't help but think of the argument between mother and son just now, she couldn't help but sighed: "Maosheng, don't blame Madam...She did this for our own good... Although the means are bloody, but the power to stop Ge is Wu, I only hope that from now on, such tragedies will not happen again in the Qi Mansion..."

Qi Maosheng shook his body and stood in the wind and snow.

He looked up at the snowflakes falling all over the sky, and said sadly: "Speaking of which, it's us men who are useless...Letting women swallow their hatred and kill them again and again if they have a chance, just let the children suffer and weaken the Qi family. Heir..." At this point, he hugged Gu Xiyan's shoulders vigorously, "Xiyan, we can't let this happen to the Qi family again..."

* * * * * *
Madam Wei leaned against the glass window, watching the figures of Qi Maosheng and Gu Xiyan disappear into the wind and snow.

Bao Niang came over with hot tea: "Don't worry, my master has been hugging the young lady, and the young lady will not fall!"

Mrs. Wei took the tea, with a bitter smile on her face: "What do you know...she is the first child... I didn't even manage to keep the third child because the first tire slipped..." At this point , She lowered her eyelids, also hiding the pain that went deep into the bone marrow.

* * * * * *
When Qi Maosheng and his wife returned to Liyuan, there was a roll shop next to the big kang facing the window outside.

It seems that Duanniang is determined to stay on duty overnight.

Qi Maosheng is a person who makes up his mind and doesn't regret it, so he naturally feels nothing, but Gu Xiyan is very uncomfortable.

After they were married, no outsider had ever spent the night in the house.

She took the opportunity of freshening up and asked Duan Niang to speak in the ear room.

"Auntie, don't be childish. You don't know how good Maosheng is to me, and how he would hurt me. Besides, he backed down for me. The more this is the case, the less we can do it too much... ..."

"But..." Duanniang hesitated a bit.

Gu Xiyan made a serious face on purpose: "It was you who asked me to use tricks on Maosheng. Now that he finally came back, it was you who wanted to come to our house to stay overnight. Tell me, what do you want from me?"

Gu Xiyan stared at what Duanniang wanted to say, "If Maosheng took the people in the house when I was pregnant, I wouldn't want to live..."

"Got it, got it!" Although Duanniang didn't believe Gu Xiyan's words in her heart, she was afraid that if Qi Maosheng really couldn't help it...she couldn't help but said: "You must never let him approach you Your body has not yet sat firmly, at least it will be five or six months..."

Seeing that Duanniang backed down, Gu Xiyan couldn't hear those nagging, she immediately smiled like a flower and said to Xingyu who was helping her to wash up: "Take away the kang roll shop, it's very cold, I will accompany you later Auntie is going to have a glass of wine." Saying that, she pushed Duan Niang out of the door.

Reading on the crooked bed in the inner room, Qi Maosheng saw Duanniang taking the rolls on the kang outside and leaving, he couldn't help being startled, just as he sat up straight and was about to ask a question, he saw Gu Xiyan wearing a mink fur coat after grooming He ran in rustlingly in a single-clothed coat.

Qi Maosheng quickly lifted the corner of the quilt and hugged Gu Xiyan in his arms: "What's wrong... like a child!"

Gu Xiyan smiled and rolled into Qi Maosheng's arms, and smiled triumphantly: "I persuaded Duanniang away!"

Qi Maosheng covered Gu Xiyan's slightly cold hand in his hand: "He also told me to rest assured that he usually runs around in unlined clothes like this!"

With Qi Maosheng's quilt, it was much warmer than usual.

Gu Xiyan laughed twice, and plunged her head into Qi Maosheng's arms.

Qi Maosheng blew on the lamp, and the two of them snuggled together, only a small melon-shaped glass lamp on the kang table in the outer room shone through with Huang's light, illuminating the room warmly and peacefully.

Qi Maosheng's embrace always makes Gu Xiyan feel warm and safe.

She chatted with Qi Maosheng: "Maosheng, the last time you went to Jiangsha, how did your talk go?"

"There is no substantive progress at all!" Qi Maosheng's hand habitually reached into Gu Xiyan's skirt and grasped the plump and delicate touch of her chest, so that he would not be a little distracted, and he would be a little absent-minded when speaking. "The two families of Shen and Zheng have joined hands for a long time. Mrs. Hu of Jin Guogong's mansion was afraid that she would suffer from Yuchi, so she made an appointment in Jiangsha to talk about mutual support...you know what happened later, because I attacked three states in a row , so they invited me temporarily... they just unilaterally asked me not to participate in the war, but it didn't bring any benefits. It's better to cooperate with Xizhao. Food, grass and military pay saved a lot..." He said, and there was a light and even breathing sound next to his ears.

Qi Maosheng looked down, and Gu Xiyan fell asleep in his arms.

Is it because of pregnancy?
Sanping also once said that since she was pregnant, she has been very lethargic.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help laughing and called out "Xiyan".

Gu Xiyan muttered ambiguously, rubbed her face against his shoulder, and fell back into a deep sleep.

Qi Maosheng looked at the peaceful and quiet flower-like face in his arms, the corners of his mouth curled up involuntarily, and his hand slid down to her abdomen, rubbing it carefully...

This is his wife, and the child who is about to be born...

The desire that just raised his head gradually disappeared, and his heart was filled with unprecedented peace and satisfaction!

* * * * * *
Originally, Qi Maosheng only planned to stay at home for two days to see Xiyan and the child before leaving, but in the end he stayed at home for five days before leaving.During this period, no matter how excited he was, he never moved Gu Xiyan.

No one knows Qi Maosheng's enthusiasm for married life better than Gu Xiyan, and with his appearance, Gu Xiyan feels a little uneasy.

"Silly girl!" Qi Maosheng scratched her nose and laughed, "Isn't it good for us to do this?"

Of course good!
Gu Xiyan hugged Qi Maosheng tearfully.

Except for going to see Fang Shaoqin with Gu Xiyan on the first day, the two of them were tired of being together the rest of the time.

When she wakes up in the morning, Gu Xiyan will take Qi Maosheng to pick vegetables with herself in the glass shed, and then tell him what is a radish, what is a cabbage, and what is a cabbage; Take a walk, tell her what you have seen and heard in various places, folk customs, his naughtiness when he was a child, and his longing when he grows up... When Gu Xiyan was doing needlework, Qi Maosheng would tease her female celebrity; When making woodcuts for children, Gu Xiyan would pick and choose to tease his craftsmanship... When two people are together, there are always endless things to talk about and things to do...

It feels like falling in love.

At that moment, she really hoped that Qi Maosheng would stay with her...

In ancient times, the medical conditions were backward. When giving birth to a child, she would be afraid if she had one foot in the underworld and the other in the yang world.But she knew better in her heart that Qi Maosheng couldn't leave the forefront of the war at a sensitive moment when several government houses were about to move.

Life is never perfect, if this is the price she has to pay, then she is willing to use this kind of separation in exchange for the harmony of husband and wife and the safety of children...
