Chapter 1285
The light in front of the window sill was bright, and the room was warm. The man sitting at the table looked up at the woman from time to time. When his eyes fell on her face that was absorbed in him, there would be a slight smile in his eyes.
After that, he quietly flipped through the scrolls that he had read several times before, trying his best not to disturb the woman, and even the movement of flipping the pages was deliberately light.
Outside the house, the howling cold wind blows from time to time, bringing out a burst of noise. Inside the house, it was as quiet as another space, and even the air smelled reassuring.
After entering the courtyard, in the dark room, the woman who had rested for a long time quietly opened her eyes. In the dark light, she looked at the sleeping figure of the man beside her, listening to his reassuring breathing, her eyes flashed with strong affection.
And grief.
Gently holding the man's hand, fingers intertwined, Liu Muqiu bit her lips tightly.
The flickering and flickering of the eyes is extremely complicated.
For the last time, she begged for the last time.
If it still doesn't work, she will... let go.
The word let go flashed in my mind, and I tightened my fingers unconsciously. Just thinking about it, I felt heartache and couldn't breathe.
She thought she could occupy him for the rest of her life regardless.
She has always been a very selfish person.
But later she discovered that when she loves someone to the extreme, she really wants to give him all the good things.
Even if you let go, even if you make it happen.
Unknowingly, the corners of his eyes got wet, Liu Muqiu gently turned over, wanting to get out of bed, lest the choking sound would wake up the sleeping man.
As soon as she moved, a moderate force hit her, hugging her into her arms, "Where are you going so late, go to sleep."
The voice was muffled, as if talking in a dream.
Liu Muqiu didn't move, and obediently fell in the man's arms.
She knew he wasn't awake, but subconsciously hugged her.
And this kind of subconsciousness is the most fascinating.
Surrounding him with both hands, Liu Muqiu breathed in the breath that belonged to him greedily, and closed his eyes.
After getting up the next day, Liu Muqiu bumped into Liu Yusheng on the path leading to the front hall from the small courtyard.
Looking at each other's black eyes, they burst out laughing.
"Did you become a thief last night?"
With one voice, the two laughed together again.
After laughing, the two of them walked towards the front yard arm in arm. Grandma had yelled several times just now. If they didn't go out to wash up and have breakfast, the old lady would come to lift their quilts by herself later.
Seeing that he was about to reach the front hall, Liu Muqiu took a deep breath, "Ninny, after breakfast, I have something to tell you."
"Just right, I have something to tell you, I will go to the courtyard with me after dinner."
Liu Yusheng blinked at the woman, who was slightly stunned, and an unbelievable surprise burst out from the back of her eyes.
"Nannah!..." Liu Muqiu vaguely guessed something, but she couldn't be sure without it being said by her.
So eager.
So I am even more afraid of despair after hope is born.
"It's good news." Liu Yusheng pursed her lips and smiled, and when grandma yelled again, she pulled Liu Muqiu to the kitchen.
This breakfast Liu Muqiu was so dizzy that he even forgot to take the food several times.
Liu Zhiqiu noticed her strangeness and remained calm.
Those who also saw this scene were the elders of the Liu family.
After breakfast, Liu Muqiu almost clung to Liu Yusheng's side, silently urging her to explain the matter quickly.
Seeing eagerly, Mrs. Liu was very worried.
After the young people left, Mrs. Liu sighed, "Mu Qiu, I'm afraid she feels bad."
Mu Qiu couldn't give birth.
As elders, they have long accepted this fact, and never thought of separating a good young couple because of it.
But they all knew that it was Mu Qiu who cared.
Especially the Empress Dowager and General Qin, at this age, had good news not long after they got married, and that girl Mu Qiu was even more irritated.
The Empress Dowager looked towards the direction where Liu Muqiu and Liu Yusheng left outside the kitchen, and murmured, "Don't be so pessimistic, maybe this time, it's a good thing."
Qin Xiao nodded, "It must be a good thing."
In the past, it was what Aman said, let alone now.
Even if the empress dowager pointed at the deer and said it was a horse, he would still say it was a horse, or a bloody horse.
Ever since he found out that the Empress Dowager was happy yesterday, the famous and unpredictable General Qin has become a big fool.
IQ is offline.
Before returning to the new courtyard yesterday, Liu Yusheng took another pulse for the empress dowager, and confirmed that the empress dowager was more than two months pregnant.
Calculating the time, they will have a concubine on the day they get married.
The corner of Qin Xiao's mouth opened unconsciously, and his smile was so silly that people couldn't look directly at it.
The empress dowager kicked the man with her embroidered shoes, "Why are you sitting here when you're full? Go practice boxing, hoe the ground, whatever you want, don't let this shame you!"
Qin Xiao looked around, and picked up the brazier attentively, "I'll take the brazier to the main room, go sit in the main room, there are reclining chairs, you can lie down and rest when you're tired."
The corners of the empress dowager's eyes twitched, she just got up.
"Brother Qin said, go to the main room and sit on the reclining chair." Mrs. Liu tried her best to open her smiling eyes, "Don't take it seriously, after all, you are getting old, so you have to have a good pregnancy. Do you know You know? Except eating and sleeping, don't think about anything else."
Her beautiful eyes turned to Old Madam Liu, and the Empress Dowager scratched and scratched in the air with her nails.
The reckless woman's long speech is actually to remind her that she is already a lot older, right?
snort.
Standing up slowly, supporting her waist with one hand, and supporting her completely invisible belly with the other, the empress dowager was very elegant and dignified, "Speaking of which, you and Mr. Liu are also considered husband and wife, and you should have four years after you gave birth to the eldest and second child. It’s been more than ten years? Why haven’t there been a third child for more than forty years?”
When he turned around, his gaze flicked over the old woman's stomach, "I'm not up to snuff."
"You still have to rely on me for your rations!" Mrs. Liu twisted her nose angrily, her old face flushed.
Are you ashamed to tease her about this matter?
On weekdays, you always talk about decency, why don't you mention decency today?
Thinking that anyone can conceive pearls like her!
"Oh, by the way, I want to eat meatloaf later, and I want something without meaty taste. The side dishes don't have to be so troublesome, just a plate of pickled radish, not too sour, and some spicy, not too spicy, as long as it suits you."
"You've just eaten enough and you're thinking about another meal. The pigs raised by Aunt Osmanthus aren't as greedy as you are!"
"It's not what I want to eat, it's what it wants to eat." Empress Dowager Yubai put her fingers on her belly.
Mrs. Liu, "..." I really want to fork this woman out.
"Sister-in-law Liu, just tell me what you want to help with. Although I don't know how to cook, running errands is not a problem." Aman wanted to eat, so Qin Xiao seriously suggested.
Mr. Liu pulled him away with a smile, "There are many young people in the family, so I need your old arms and legs to help me? Come and play chess with me."
"I'm busy."
"What are you busy with? Maodong! Besides, your wife is in the main room, where can you run? Play chess, don't run, you're an idiot if you don't come!"
For the first time, Qin Xiao regretted his previous good temper.
How can he play chess with a stinky chess basket for several hours and still be patient?
So he was targeted.
In this respect, Feng Qingbai is one step ahead of him.
