after marrying stepbrother

Chapter 785 Inform Chen
Chapter 785 Inform Chen
At this moment, the capital, which is thousands of miles away from the northwest, has just had a winter rain.

Mrs. Chen was sitting by the stove, wearing a coat to warm the fire, flipping the roasted sweet potatoes from time to time.In previous years, in Chenjia Village, sweet potatoes were cheap, and when there was not enough rice and noodles at home, sweet potatoes were always used instead.

"I haven't eaten for a while, I'm so hungry."

Chen stroked her stomach and smiled at Xiao Chenggui, "When I was pregnant with my little girl, the family was so poor that I couldn't open the pot. If I wanted to eat candied fruit, I had to rely on my sister-in-law to make up for it."

On the contrary, right now, when I come to the capital to live in a big courtyard, if I want to eat, someone will immediately bring it to my mouth. This life is like a dream.

"The good days are yet to come. If you are dreaming, you will not wake up for a while."

Xiao Chenggui moved a chair and sat down beside Mrs. Chen.

The capital city is no better than the Northland, there is no heated kang in the house, and it rained a winter, it was cold and damp, in the past few days, Mrs. Chen has started to lose sleep at night again.

"You just think too much and worry too much, but miss Yue Sha?"

Xiao Chenggui patted Chen's shoulder. He received the news from Shuangfuji that Lin Yuesha was fine and had arrived in Qincheng smoothly. Counting the time, he might already be in the northwest by now.

That kid Qi Heng is too possessive, and he will definitely not want that girl Yuesha to be too far away from him.

"My son travels thousands of miles and my mother is worried. How can I not think about it, but the little girl has always had big ideas. As a mother, I can't do anything but take care of myself and not let her worry about it."

Mrs. Chen held the sweet potato with tongs, and said sadly, "I don't know where to start, my daughter has grown up."

The little girl who used to hide behind her, now manages the family and the outside world neatly, making Mrs. Chen realize that she is useless. This feeling is both sad and gratifying.

"It's good to grow up. When the brat in your stomach grows up, he will run errands for his sister in the future."

Xiao Chenggui had a smile on his face, and he had already started to think about how to train his unborn son. He had to learn from Mrs. Xu next door, and he was not used to brats.

"You and I are willing, but the little girl is reluctant."

Chen frowned, then glanced at the sky, and said sadly, "I do have something on my mind."

In the past two days, there was a lot of commotion in the capital. The common people heard the news that the Wei family had controlled Jinshang and was always ready to usurp the throne. As the Wei family's in-laws, the Lin family participated in it.

"Liu Quan was walking outside, and he heard the news that some scholars from Qingzhu Academy ran to the gate of the Imperial College to make a fuss, and some went to Jingzhao Yin's yamen, to reprimand the Wei family for their wolfish ambitions, blood was spattered on the spot."

Chen closed her eyes and took a deep breath. The ordinary people don't care who is in charge of the world, as long as they have enough food and clothing to stay warm, but their own family is different, and her stepson is still in the Green Bamboo Academy. She sent someone to send messages several times, but they didn't get a reply.

If it weren't for the heavy body and the inconvenience of movement, Mrs. Chen would really like to go out of the house and bring him back.

"As a father, you can't take care of yourself?"

It's been a few days, but there is no news, Chen can't sit still more and more, she didn't get a good night's sleep the night before.

"Shangxin is Shangxin, but..."

Xiao Chenggui always wanted to tell Chen Shi the true identity of the father and son, but before Qi Heng was around, he never found a chance.

That kid acted quickly, and before he went to the northwest, he made an appointment with Lin Yuesha. If he was more slanderous, he might have already tricked him into his hand.

In case Chen Shi and Lin Yuesha are the last insiders...

Xiao Chenggui wiped off his sweat, no, he must act first.

"But what, could it be that it's not your own?"

Seeing that the sweet potatoes were almost roasted, Mrs. Chen used iron tongs to clamp them into the tray, and then heard Xiao Chenggui say: "It is indeed not my own."

With a plop, the baked sweet potato fell to the ground and rolled around in place for a few times. Chen was stunned and slowly raised his head.

"It is true that he is not my own, he is my adopted son."

Speaking of this topic, it can be long.

Xiao Chenggui thought it over and decided to start from the beginning.

"You mean, Ting Yun's surname is not Xiao, but Qi..."

Mrs. Chen was stunned, and it took a long time to realize, muttering, "The surname is Qi, what does it have to do with Qi Heng?"

She had long realized that Qi Heng was not an ordinary businessman, and came to the door with so many betrothal gifts, Chen's agreement to the marriage had already been considered.

On the one hand, Mrs. Chen sincerely hopes to find someone who understands coldness and hotness for her daughter, and on the other hand, Qi Heng does not seem easy, even if she refuses, the other party may make some troubles, which will be disadvantageous to Lin Yuesha.

After comprehensive consideration, Chen decided to nod first and wait and see what happened.

Now, everything was weird, Chen looked at Xiao Chenggui with burning eyes and said, "Is there anything else I don't know?"

"Xiao Qi is Qi Heng, and his pockmarked face is his mask."

It sounds unbelievable that Xiao Chenggui was frank and lenient, but this was the truth, he didn't dare to hide anything, and by the way, he told about the Qi family affairs back then.

"It was a coincidence when you and I met at the beginning. At my age, I didn't intend to marry a wife..."

After Xiao Chenggui finished speaking, he took off his mask first.

After wearing the mask for a long time, his face was abnormally pale, but the gap with him was not that big, it was better than Qi Heng's pockmarked face.

"I haven't been sleeping well recently, and I'm dreaming again."

After listening to it, Mrs. Chen, beyond Xiao Chenggui's expectation, did not show any excitement, but stood up and went back to the bed in the inner room. She closed her eyes and muttered to herself, "This dream is too absurd!"

Xiao Chenggui's heart was about to jump out, he originally planned to infiltrate bit by bit, and he should not have spoken so thoroughly in a moment of annoyance.

Anyone would be shocked by this sudden truth.

Xiao Chenggui was contemplating, when suddenly, Chen sat up again, came to his side, stretched out his hand and squeezed his belly hard.

"what!"

Xiao Chenggui screamed, Chen's strength could penetrate copper and iron walls, and he almost bit his tongue to kill himself in pain.

"It appears to be true."

Chen's blood was hot, she drank a cup of hot tea, she had to slow down.

The husband's face is fake, his identity is fake, his stepson is not his stepson, but now he is his son-in-law, where is all this?
"Madam, I'm not a descendant of the Xiao family either. The status of King Ping is optional. If the Wei family usurps the throne, I..."

Xiao Chenggui thought that Mrs. Chen couldn't accept his identity, so he kept explaining.

"To shut up!"

Mrs. Chen gave Xiao Chenggui a disgusted look, it was too noisy, she hadn't calmed down yet, she had to straighten out the rules first.

"So, after all, I, the mother, neglected it. If I don't marry again, I won't lead wolves into the house."

Chen shi regrets it now, she didn't see that Ting Yun was interested in Xiaoya before, she naively thought that brother and sister were deeply in love, but now that she thinks about it carefully, the two are not real brother and sister, and it is not a good thing to get too close to each other.
