Chapter 1361 Brotherhood (1)
In Shengjing in the first month of the lunar year, there is still heavy snowfall, but in the first month of Lion Island, the trees are lush and lush.
When Yuchen got off the boat, he felt miserable when he saw the flowers blooming just right by the roadside. Even though the cold wind in Shengjing ravages her bones and it is like spring all the year round, she still prefers to stay in Shengjing.
Shi Xiang supported Yu Chen and said: "Madam, the third master and the eldest girl will be very happy to see you."
After Yan Wushuang was buried, Yuchen fell ill and took a month to recover.
If he hadn't been thinking about Achi and Abao, Yuchen might have gone.
A group of people saw white lanterns hanging at the gate of Yan Mansion from a distance. Yuchen felt his legs were a little weak, and said to the guard beside him, "Go and see who is gone?"
Shi Xiang knew Yuchen's worry, and hurriedly said: "Ma'am, don't worry, the third master and the eldest girl have always been in good health, and there will be nothing wrong." She thought it was Xiang who died of illness. After all, Xiang was half dead when he arrived at Lion Island the year before last.
As soon as they arrived at the gate, they saw a man in blue clothes rushing towards him and hugged Yuchen.
"Mother, mother, you are finally back." After saying this, Ah Bao burst into tears.
Ever since Yan Wushuang and Yuchen left, Ah Bao has been thinking about going back to the Central Plains to find them day and night. It's a pity that even if she got rid of the people watching her, she didn't have a boat to go to sea. She almost turned against Ah Chi because of this.
Yuchen patted Abao's back lightly, and said softly: "If you have anything to say, let's go into the room and talk!"
A Chi nodded, but looked up and saw Yan Wushuang's voice: "Mother, where is Dad?"
Yuchen's expression suddenly darkened: "Abao, let's talk after we enter the house." This gate is really not a place for conversation.
Uneasiness emerged in Abao's heart, but in the end he wiped away his tears and followed Yuchen into the house.
The courtyard where Yuchen lives is the same as when she left, without any change. The furniture in the house is also spotless.
Holding Yuchen's arm, Ah Bao asked eagerly: "Mother, where is Dad? Mother, why didn't Dad come back with you?"
Yuchen lowered his head and said, "Your father died in battle in Tongcheng. I will bury him in the Yan family's ancestral grave according to his last wish."
A Bao shook his head and said, "Impossible, I don't believe it. Mother, you lied to me, right. Mother, it is impossible for Dad to leave us."
Yuchen said with red eyes: "A Bao, how could mother curse your father?" She also hoped that what she had experienced was a nightmare, and that her husband would be by her side again when she woke up. Unfortunately, that is all wishful thinking.
In fact, Yan Wushuang and Yuchen didn't come back for a year, and Abao already had a guess in his heart and made the worst plan. But it is still unacceptable to face it.
Seeing Abao crying so sadly, Yuchen shed tears herself.
When Ah Chi came over, he saw the mother and daughter hugging each other and crying. He already knew from the guard that Yan Wushuang was gone, but because he had prepared earlier, he was calmer than A Bao: "Mother, don't cry, your body is the most important thing."
Because of being overly sad, I fell ill again, and after recovering from the illness, I was eager to go on my way. Now Yuchen is so thin that she is almost as thin as a piece of paper. This made Ah Chi see, why not worry.
After crying for a while, Yuchen's mood calmed down a lot. Wiping away tears, Yuchen asked: "When I first entered the door, I saw a white lantern hanging at the door. Who is missing?"
Hearing this, Ah Bao said angrily, "It's that bitch from Xiang Shi who is gone." That bitch, letting her drink poisoned wine is taking advantage of her. If it was her, she would definitely have to suffer a lot before going.
Ah Chi added: "Mother, Ah Zhong is gone."
Yuchen said, "Sit down and talk."
A Bao said: "Sister-in-law is pregnant,
That poisonous woman actually put medicine in sister-in-law's food..."
Yuchen's complexion changed drastically, and he hurriedly asked, "Is Xueman and the child okay?"
A Chi said with a face of self-blame: "Xueman is fine, but the child was not kept." It was he who failed to protect Xueman, so the child missed the chance to come into this world. When the child was gone, Ah Chi wept sadly.
Ah Bao retorted loudly: "What do you mean it's okay? Uncle Wu said that my sister-in-law was injured. If the confinement is not done well, there will be future troubles." This Uncle Wu is the doctor they brought.
What Ah said was nothing, meant that Qiu Xueman's life was not in danger. But Ah Bao obviously misunderstood what he meant.
Yuchen stood up and asked, "Where is Xueman? Where is she now?" She is also a mother and knows the pain of losing a child.
Hearing that Xueman was still confinement, Yuchen was going to see her. Achi didn't stop her either, but said: "Mother, Xueman doesn't know that she was hurt." This meaning was kept from Yuchen. In fact, Yao Xueman didn't hurt the root cause. Dr. Wu said that as long as the confinement is done and then recuperated for a year, it will basically be fine.
Hearing this, Yuchen was no longer in a hurry to visit Xueman, but looked at Achi and said, "This time in Tongcheng, it's all thanks to General Qiu's photoshoot that your father and I can stay there safely and securely." Your father insisted on going to the battlefield to kill the enemy, but he died of serious injuries. In order to avenge your father, General Qiu dragged his wounds to the battlefield to kill the enemy."
Ah Chi's complexion changed slightly: "Mother, my father-in-law..."
"He also died in battle. After his death, he was also buried in the Yan family's ancestral grave. His tomb is next to your father. Ah Chi, General Qiu put his life on the line for your father. You can't let Xue Man down." If not, she would have no face to face Qiu Dashan when she went underground.
Ah Chi nodded heavily and said, "Mother, don't worry, I won't let Xueman down." Even if this incident didn't happen, he would treat her for the rest of his life just because Xueman left his family and came to Lion Island with him all the way. OK
Ah Bao likes Qiu Xueman, the sister-in-law very much: "Mother, you can't tell sister-in-law about this, or she won't be able to confine herself with peace of mind."
Yuchen is not a three-year-old child, so how can he lose this sense of propriety.
Qiu Xueman was very sad that the child was gone. But A Bao was with her during the day, A Chi was with her at night, and Aunt Xiang and Yan Hengzhong were gone, so Qiu Xueman quickly came out of grief.
Seeing Yuchen, she had to stand up and salute. However, in the end, Yuchen pressed her back into the quilt: "The body is the most important thing, so there is no need to talk about these empty etiquette."
After saying a few words, Qiu Xueman couldn't help asking: "Mother, how are my parents? Are they okay?"
Yuchen nodded and said: "They are all very good. Your father was made an earl by Yun Qing because of his bravery in the Battle of Tongcheng."
Qiu Xueman asked with surprise: "Really?" After saying this, he realized that his expression was wrong.
Yuchen didn't mind, she had completely let go. Now, she only hopes that Ah Bao and Ah Chi will be well: "Of course it is true, but your father was injured in this battle. Now he has returned to Shengjing to recuperate from his injuries. The doctor said that it will take a few years to heal." Qiu It won't take long for Dashan to hide this matter. After Qiu Xueman recovers, tell her. Now, I dare not tell her. If this confinement is not done well, Qiu Xueman's health will be even worse
"It's good that people are fine." Qiu Dashan was often injured, and Qiu Xueman was used to it. Since the doctor said that it can be cured without life-threatening, she felt relieved.
After talking with Qiu Xueman for a while, Yuchen went back to the yard and asked A Bao: "Why did the Xiang family want to kill Xueman?" No matter how you look at it, there was no reason for the Xiang family to kill Xueman. To put it bluntly, if Xueman is really gone, Achi can marry again.
When this matter was brought up, Ah Bao became very angry: "After my sister-in-law had a miscarriage, my brother found out that that bitch did it. When my brother asked her why she did this, she said like a hysteria that my sister-in-law seduced Yan Hengzhong , and said that the child in sister-in-law's womb belongs to Yan Hengzhong."
Xiang believed that the child in Qiu Xueman's stomach belonged to Yan Hengzhong, how could such a wicked species allow him to be born. Therefore, she tried every means to add medicine to Qiu Xueman's dishes. It's also because Qiu Xueman's living environment is simple and there are no such messy things, and he was counted only when he lost his guard. If Yuchen was here, such a thing would definitely not happen.
Yuchen's face instantly turned livid.
Seeing this, Ah Bao hurriedly grabbed her hand and said, "Mother, it's that poisonous woman from the Xiang family talking nonsense. Sister-in-law is so infatuated with brother, it's impossible to do such a thing."
Speaking of it, Qiu Xueman was really unlucky, because with her appearance and appearance, she was afraid of causing unnecessary troubles, and she rarely even went out on weekdays. But Yan Hengzhong was in the same house as her, meeting each other was inevitable. However, when Qiu Xueman saw Yan Hengzhong, he greeted Yan Hengzhong and left without saying a word to him. In the end, it still caused this unreasonable disaster.
Qiu Xueman's heart is all on Ah Chi, and the husband and wife are often together without separation, so how could he have anything to do with Yan Hengzhong.
Yuchen sighed and said, "Mother doesn't know who your sister-in-law is?" I'm afraid that Yan Hengzhong had something wrong for Qiu Xueman.
Speaking of which, this was also the reason why Yuchen did not agree to this marriage that day. Qiu Xue's appearance is too alluring, she is not suitable to be a housewife. And after the bridal chamber with A Chi, Qiu Xueman became more and more charming, like a ripe peach. Seeing this man, few people are not tempted.
Seeing that Yuchen was not pregnant, Qiu Xueman immediately felt relieved: "Mother, you don't know how disgusting he is. He actually hooked up with Xiaolin, his sister-in-law's personal maid. After Xiangshi found out, she thought it was sister-in-law who hooked up with him. Brother After arresting her, she said brazenly that sister-in-law deserved to die."
As soon as Yuchen heard this, he knew that Yan Hengzhong hooked up with the maid Xiaolin, and he was afraid that he wanted to use Xiaolin's hand to get close to Qiu Xueman. Unexpectedly, Yan Hengzhong dared to take action, not to mention having unreasonable thoughts about Qiu Xueman. Yuchen asked, "How did Yan Hengzhong die?"
"He died of illness. After Xiang Shi died, Yan Hengzhong became ill. It was useless to ask a doctor to see him. His condition got worse and worse, but he died in a few days." After finishing speaking, Ah Bao explained: " The white lantern was hung for him." Aunt Xiang was just a concubine, and when she died, she was dismissed in a thin coffin.
Yuchen was not as naive as Abao, and Yan Hengzhong's death was definitely not an accident. It's just that she didn't tell A Bao.
