Marriage Beloved in Troubled Times: Madam Wants to Run Away from Marriage

Chapter 725 Him, with another him
"This is a gift from me to Xiaoping." Before leaving, Jiu Gongzi took out a quaint wooden box from somewhere, put it on the table, and took a deep look at Su Qingwan for the last time. courtyard.

Su Qingwan stood there for a long time, but the entanglement and confusion in her eyes did not dissipate.

All this happened so suddenly that she couldn't bear it at all.

It wasn't until her legs were numb that she was about to be unable to stand that she took a step forward, moved to the edge of the table, sat on the chair, stared at the wooden box and continued to be in a daze - the scenes in the previous life and the scenes in this life were like It became two invisible forces, both pulling her...

Since Huo Xizhou left the yard, he was also unhappy in various ways. While entertaining the guests who came to congratulate him, he hoped that Su Qingwan would appear in front of him sooner, but after waiting for a long time, the banquet began to eat. But she hadn't appeared yet, he finally couldn't help it, and continued to ask Su Ning and others to take care of the child, and then hurried back.

Entering the courtyard gate, one could see Su Qingwan sitting there with a dazed look.

Look around again, the ninth son is no longer there.

He hurried forward, and asked with some concern: "Wanwan, are you... tired? Then, do you want to take a rest?"

However, no response was received.

He frowned slightly, took another two steps forward, and put his hand on Su Qingwan's shoulder: "Wanwan?"

Su Qingwan suddenly trembled with fright, raised her head suddenly, looked at Huo Xizhou, and subconsciously said: "You... who are you?"

Huo Xizhou who asked was stunned for a moment, and put his head on her forehead: "Wanwan, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"

Only then did Su Qingwan realize: "I...I'm fine."

This is the horse state of this life, she thought.

Huo Xizhou wanted to ask a few more questions, but seeing her expression was wrong, he hesitated for a while, but changed the subject, and took the wooden box on the table: "What is this?"

"It's Jiu... something he gave to the child." Su Qingwan's expression changed again.

he?
Huo Xizhou immediately felt that Su Qingwan's attitude towards Young Master Jiu had changed a lot.

But he didn't say anything, just opened the wooden box.

Inside is a piece of jade, crystal clear jade, but the shape of this jade is a quaint lantern, and there is a blood-red line in the middle of the jade, which looks like a wick.

Jade is a rare and beautiful jade, but I don’t know what kind of jade it is, because jade is generally cool in quality, but this piece has warmth, as if the bright red wick is really burning, bringing warmth to this piece of jade. of.

But the blood-like color made people feel a little uncomfortable.

"Since it's a gift, I'll put it in the warehouse." Huo Xizhou said.

"Don't!" Su Qingwan glanced at it, but said, "Bring the child over here and put it on for the child."

In the previous life, it's not that Huo Xizhou didn't send things to the children, and she didn't know where to put them. If the ninth son is really him, how can she bear to let him down again?

Huo Xizhou's mood suddenly became more uncomfortable: "Wanwan, you..."

"Okay, since you think the child should take it with him, let's take it with him."

"It's just... Did Young Master Jiu say something that made you feel unhappy? Can you tell me? You remember, we said that if you have something on your mind, you should tell me, you can't hide it .”

"He..." Su Qingwan subconsciously wanted to say it, but swallowed it back.

It's easy to talk about other things, but how can she tell him that Young Master Jiu is another him?

Besides, the ninth son said when he left, he will know...

She could only shake her head: "He didn't say anything, he just came to give the child a birthday present. As for the rest, he said you would know."

She didn't hide it from Huo Xizhou, and didn't want to say much, so she got up: "I'm going to see the child."

Huo Xizhou saw that she didn't pay much attention to his departure, and didn't follow him. He just called the people in the courtyard and asked if there was anything special happening here. The servants and those who were arranged to protect Su Qingwan in the dark They both said that Young Master Jiu and Su Qingwan were just talking, and Young Master Jiu didn't do anything to Su Qingwan that shouldn't be done, but the content of what they said, no one knew.

Hearing this, Huo Xizhou could only have doubts, and finish the day's affairs before talking.

After night fell, the Huo family sent all the congratulatory guests away, and Su Qingwan also took the child back to the yard. Seeing her tired face, Huo Xizhou asked the nanny to take the child to the next room to sleep up.

The two of them took a bath one after another and lay down on the bed.

Seeing Su Qingwan lying with his back to him, Huo Xizhou pulled her back into his arms, making her face him: "Wanwan, Ping An is already one year old, we haven't seen each other for a long time..."

He stroked her face, the meaning in his tone was obvious.

"Don't!" Su Qingwan's heart skipped a beat, and she hurriedly refused, "I'm a little...tired..."

Huo Xizhou's eyes darkened slightly, he didn't really want to be intimate with Su Qingwan, he was just testing her.

"Okay then," he went on to say, "then you have a good rest tonight, and we will..."

"Xizhou," Su Qingwan supported Huoxizhou's chest with her hands, gritted her teeth, and said, "My mother told me that the Northern Expedition is coming to an end soon, but the situation is still not very good. The actions of the Japanese and the people are becoming more and more rampant. The death of the commander of the Northland on the train is a major signal. The country, the family, the weak, and the weak will be beaten if they fall behind. I heard you and your brother a few days ago They discussed to expand the scale and teach all men to shoot and shoot. Thinking about...the things that happened before, my heart became more and more uneasy.

If war comes and I'm still just a woman who can't help you with anything, that's not what I want.

Xizhou, Ping An is already one year old, and I don’t have to feed and raise it myself. The women’s university has started for a few days. I thought about it. Why don’t I go to school next week, major in Western medicine, and learn some other things. useful things..."

Huo Xizhou nodded: "We have discussed the matter of you going to the women's university before, you can go if you want, and neither I nor my family will stop you... But, what do you mean by this now yes?"

"I plan to live on campus!" Su Qingwan said: "Although there is only a river between Jiangcheng and Lincheng, it is a waste of time for me to go back and forth every day. Now that I have entered school, I want to race against time to learn more. Things, my mother said that the women's university has student dormitories, and she also lives on campus on weekdays, look... I live on campus too, okay?"
