Chapter 100 100

Qingxi was sleeping very uneasy this night.

Is there any connection between my mother's illness, Han Rong's accidental visit, and grandmother's gloomy and angry face?

It was past five o'clock in the morning, and it was still dark, Qingxi woke up and couldn't sleep. She put on her clothes, gently pushed open the door, and went to see her mother.

Xiaolan was responsible for keeping watch over Lin Wanyin last night.

Xiaolan manages the accounting in the noodle restaurant, and Meng Jin can take care of the money first. Qingxi arranges Xiaolan to take care of her mother in the past two days.

"Miss, the old lady came to see her last night." Xiaolan said secretly when she saw Qingxi.

Qingxi felt a sudden heart and asked anxiously: "What did grandmother and mother say?"

Xiaolan shook her head: "The old lady didn't let me in, but the old lady came out after only a few words."

Qingxi couldn't figure it out and entered the house worriedly.

She walked to the bed and saw her mother still asleep, her face was haggard and pale, her lips were covered in blood, like a flower that was about to fade. This was the mother who gave birth to her and took good care of her. Qingxi was so painful that tears fell. She wiped the tears with one hand and slowly pressed her on her forehead with the other hand. Fortunately, the fever had subsided.

Qingxi withdrew his hand, and then he realized that his mother had woken up, lay quietly there, looking at her softly.

"Mom, get better quickly." Qingxi lay on her mother and finally cried. Before her father passed away, Qingxi spent most of her time with her mother every day. It was her mother who taught her to read, write, play the piano and paint, and it was her mother who taught her how to treat people and things. Qingxi respected and loved her father, and loved and pity her mother.

"Yes, don't worry Qingxi, mom wants to watch your three sisters get married." Lin Wanyin smiled and patted her daughter.

"If I don't marry, I won't go anywhere, I'll want my mother to be fine." Qingxi didn't like her mother's tone, as if their sisters got married, and her mother had reason not to care about her health.

Facing his daughter's stupid words, Lin Wanyin smiled without saying a word.

Qingxi cried enough and looked up and asked his mother: "Mom, what did my grandmother tell you last night?"

Xiaolan is her daughter's maid. Lin Wanyin was not surprised that her daughter would know. Rou rugus said: "It's nothing. Your grandmother told me to recover soon, don't worry you."

Qingxi didn't believe it, but no matter how she asked, Lin Wanyin answered this.

Qingxi had no choice but to give up and stay with her mother for a while. She went to the kitchen to make soup for her mother.

After serving my mother for breakfast, Wang's mother also prepared breakfast for the family, Qingxi took her two sisters to the main hall together.

Old Mrs. Xu sat steadily on the main seat, with a calm expression, as if yesterday's anger was just a illusion of Qingxi.

"Is your mother a little better?" Old Mrs. Xu asked lukewarmly, her attitude as usual.

Qingxi nodded.

Old Mrs. Xu nodded and ordered the maid to prepare a meal.

After eating, Qingxi instructed her second sister Yuxi: "I'll go to the restaurant to check it out, you go with your mother."

Yuxi responded sensibly.

Qingxi said goodbye to his grandmother again and took Fugui out.

Called a rickshaw outside Laoliu Lane, and Qingxi whispered: "Go to Hualien Road, No. 8."

The coachman pulls the cart dutifully.

Qingxi held Fugui's big head, full of worries, and didn't even notice the rickshaw passing Gu Huaixiu's villa. But Lu Duo, who was standing at the door chatting with the guard, recognized her in the car and thought that Qingxi was coming to find his uncle. Lu Duo grinned, but unfortunately, the rickshaw pulled the girl over in the blink of an eye. When Lu Duo reacted, the rickshaw had already left for a distance.

Lu Duo immediately sent the guard to follow him to see where Qingxi was going. Then he ran upstairs and reported his chance encounter to his uncle, accompanied by his keen observation: "Miss Qingxi seems to have something to do."

Gu Huaixiu was reading a letter from abroad, his eyes focused, as if his nephew's words had no effect on him. He had been sending people to protect Qingxi in secret. Yesterday, the Xu family hired a doctor, and his people also found out in time that it was Lin Wanyin who was sick. His mother was ill, so Qingxi's worries were mostly caused by this.

But Lin Wanyin only had a minor illness. Gu Huaixiu felt that there was no need to express anything. He cared more about Qingxi's destination today.

The guard sent by Lu Duo came back soon: "Third Master, the eldest lady has gone to the Han family."

Lu Duo raised his eyebrows.

Gu Huaixiu finally put down the newspaper.

Han Rong suffered from insomnia all night, worried about Lin Wanyin's illness and whether Old Mrs. Xu would treat her harshly. It was because she personally experienced the excellence of Old Mrs. Xu that Han Rong truly understood why he only said that day, which scared her to the point of breaking down.

And the arrival of Qingxi was like a ray of flames in the darkness, rekindling Han Rong's hope.

He went downstairs to the ground. At this speed, even the top-level powerful people in Hangzhou had never obtained it from him.

"Qingxi, you, you came here so early. Has something happened at home?" Han Rong asked nervously when he saw that Qingxi looked wrong.

Qingxi glanced at the maid not far away.

Han Rong waved his hand immediately.

The maid left, and Han Rong led the girl to the sofa and sat down.

"Uncle Han, I want to know what you talked to my grandmother yesterday." Qingxi asked straight to the point after refusing Han Rong's tea.

Han Rong unexpectedly looked at the girl opposite. Qingxi was an independent girl. Han Rong had known it for a long time, but after a year, Qingxi, who had grown one year older, seemed to be more calm and sophisticated than last year.

Han Rong understood that this was a conversation between adults.

He put down the tea bowl that he held into the air, pondered for a moment, and looked straight at Qingxi and said, "I like your mother. Yesterday I asked the old lady to kiss her."

Qingxi thought about countless possibilities, and even suspected that his mother had broken the valuables of the Han family, but she didn't expect this.

She was shocked and didn't know what to say.

My mother remarried? Qingxi really never thought about it.

Han Rong tried to persuade Mrs. Xu with his advantage, but Mrs. Xu refused to listen. It was Qingxi's turn. Han Rong used affection. He stared at the girl's blank eyes and asked continuously: "Is the old lady good to your mother? Is your mother happy at home? If she lives a depressed and wronged life, can I give her a happy, comfortable and free second half of her life? Do you agree with her marrying me, or would you rather she sacrifice her own happiness and continue to stay in the Xu family as a filial daughter-in-law and a gentle mother, and a duty widow in the outsiders?"

His speaking speed is not fast or slow. What makes Qingxi feel complicated is that as soon as Han Rong's question is, she has an answer.

Grandma is very harsh to her mother, and her mother has been enduring it silently. As her daughter, of course she hopes her mother will live a happy life.

The problem is...

"The president is going to propose marriage. Have you ever asked my mother?" Qingxi lowered her eyes. She wanted to know whether Han Rong and her mother were in love or Han Rong's wishful thinking.

"The old lady disagrees, even if your mother wants to do it, she won't tell me." Han Rong smiled bitterly, grabbed the cigarette box and took out a cigarette, and finally stuffed it back, looking up at Qingxi: "Qingxi, marriage is not a joke. My feelings for your mother are real, and Yingying also supports me to marry her. If you really feel sorry for your mother, please help me persuade the old lady."

Qingxi did not answer.

She had to go to her mother's place to find the answer first.

Leaving Han's house, Qingxi got into the rickshaw he hired when he came and returned to Laoliu Lane. The car passed Gu Huaixiu's villa again, and a loud whistle suddenly came from the yard. Before Qingxi could react, Fugui, who was squatting beside him, jumped down at lightning speed and rushed into the villa gate.

The rickshaw driver was stunned.

Lu Duo leaned against the door wall with the newspaper in his hand, staring at him like a stranger and questioned: "Is that your dog? Why are you running around? Take it away quickly."

Qingxi bit her lip and guessed that Gu Huaixiu was going to see her, so she had to get off the bus. She paid the fare and asked the coachman to leave.

As soon as the coachman left, Lu Duo immediately changed his attitude and greeted Qingxi with a smile.

Qingxi was worried about family affairs and was really not in the mood to make jokes, but when she saw Fugui chasing Laifu in the yard, and two strong puppies were following behind the "couple and wife", Qingxi couldn't help laughing. The puppies who were born more than a month ago finally turned into the yellowish color of their parents. Fugui chased Laifu, and the puppies chased Fugui and bit them from left to right.

"My uncle said, these two are for home, textile factory, and automobile factory." Lu Duo reminded maliciously, the implication is that Qingxi likes it, and it is useless to be liked, all the dogs are his.

Qingxi didn't want to compete with him, as it was enough to raise wealth at home.

She walked over and touched the two puppies. Later, Fugui stepped onto Laifu and was dumped by Laifu. In order to avoid more "impeded" scenes, Qingxi left behind the laughing Lu Duo and went to the study on the second floor to find Gu Huaixiu.

One day, Qingxi might have been intimate and shy before the New Year. Today, she didn't even remember it.

Gu Huaixiu can think or not, and he can control and let go freely.

"Lu Duo saw you going to the Han family, are you in trouble?" He pulled out a chair for Qingxi, and Gu Huaixiu explained why he invited her.

Before the private affairs involving mothers, Qingxi didn't want to tell them, and Gu Huaixiu couldn't do it either.

"My mother is sick, I'll ask for leave from Miss Han for her." Qingxi said perfunctorily.

Gu Huaixiu stood beside her, holding the back of her chair with one hand and the tea bowl with the other. After drinking, he whispered: "Respect your mother's decision. You can't control the others, and don't worry about it. That's what Han Rong should do."

Qingxi looked up in disbelief.

Gu Huaixiu touched her beautiful eyebrows.

The girl has no trouble recently, and he is very sure. In the Xu family, Lin Wanyin is sick. Han Rong and his daughter came to the door that day. Today, Qingxi went to find Han Rong again. It is not difficult to guess the relationship between Han Rong and Lin Wanyin. In fact, Gu Huaixiu had doubts as early as when Han Rong tried his best to save Yunxi. After all, Lin Wan's music is beautiful and Han Rong has no wife. It is normal for two people to fall in love over time.

"Go home." Gu Huaixiu leaned over and kissed the girl's delicate lips.

Qingxi's chaotic heart calmed down in his gentle and soothing kiss.

She hugged the man's waist, leaned quietly for a while, and said goodbye to leave.

After returning home, Qingxi went straight to see his mother.

"Mom, I just went to find Uncle Han, and he told me everything." Qingxi said while sitting beside the bed, holding his mother's hand.

A hint of panic flashed through Lin Wanyin's eyes. When something happened, she was not afraid of her mother-in-law's scolding, but she was afraid of the despise and contempt from her daughters.

Her mother's panic made her even more uncomfortable. Qingxi lay down and hugged her mother's thin body tightly and said, "Mom, no matter what you do, I will stand by your side. I miss you so much. I don't want you to be wronged because of us or the neighbors. Mom, I won't ask about your affairs with Uncle Han, I just want you to know that if you really like Uncle Han, then I support you..."

Lin Wanyin instinctively denied: "I don't..."

Qingxi looked at the tears in the corner of his mother's eyes and vaguely guessed his true intentions.

"Mom, you are still young, don't rush to make a decision. Let's tell me when you think about it. Let's find a way together." Qingxi smiled and said. What she feared most was that her mother kept everything in her heart, fearing that her mother would talk to her in a tone of giving her last words. If Han Rong could make her withered heart come alive, Qingxi was willing to match her.

Lin Wanyin said nothing.

But her daughter's caring heart is undoubtedly a good medicine. Before the Lantern Festival, her illness was cured.
