Chapter 51

Xie Changgeng watched Mu Fulan leave, closed the door, and turned around to explain to his mother: "It was because his son was careless when he was at the school two days ago and suffered some physical injuries. A small matter will be fine, and it will be fine in two days. Mom doesn't have to worry."

Xie's mother asked her son to take off her clothes and check it out for him. Xie Changgeng said that he had applied medicine and had bandaged it, so it was inconvenient to open it. He repeatedly promised nothing. Xie's mother had no choice but to give up. After touching her son's hand, she suddenly felt a little burned and nervous again.

Xie Changgeng said: "It's okay for my son. It's because he has been having too much trouble recently and has not had a good rest. He is already taking medicine. My son's health has always been good, and he will be fine after two days of rest."

Xie’s mother complained: “That Mu girl isn’t it that I said to her. Since you are by your side, how did you take care of you? You were so sick! How could I feel relieved?”

Xie Changgeng glanced at his mother.

The old lady frowned, and every inch of wrinkle on her face was full of dissatisfaction with the woman, which made him think of the figure who was left alone and was weak and helpless.

He hesitated for a moment and said, "Don't misunderstand it. She was treating her son and took her medicine. This was much better. After she came, she was also considerate to serve her son and had no slackness."

Xie's mother didn't say anything, and her face was still not very good.

Xie Changgeng helped his mother in, asked Amao to bring water in, wash his mother's feet in person, and serve him to rest.

My son was injured and sick, and the old lady felt distressed, so why did she be willing to let him do things and refused.

Seeing that his mother insisted, Xie Changgeng asked Amao to take his place.

Amao responded and squatted down. Outside the door, Qi Lingfeng walked in and said with a smile: "Brother-in-law, I'll do it."

Amao was a little unhappy, pouted and looked at Xie Changgeng.

Qi Lingfeng walked to Xie’s mother and asked Amao to get up.

Ah Mao stood up reluctantly.

When Qi Lingfeng rolled up her sleeves, Xie Changgeng suddenly said, "Amao, you can continue."

Amao immediately became happy, said "ah" and immediately squatted down.

Qi Lingfeng was stunned, turned her head slowly, and looked at Xie Changgeng.

Xie Changgeng looked at her and said, "I have something to say with my mother. And you have a lot of hard work along the way. Go and rest. I'll serve my mother. You don't have to stay here."

His tone was gentle, but his words were alienated, but it was very obvious.

Xie's mother couldn't hear it, and only said that her son cared about Qi Lingfeng. She nodded repeatedly and urged: "Yes, yes, Feng'er, you go back to your room, you'll have to rest earlier."

Qi Lingfeng bit her lip, responded softly, and retreated.

After Amao washed the old lady's feet, Xie Changgeng sat on the bed while serving his mother. Xie's mother said, "Geng'er, Mu has been married to you for so long, and his stomach has not moved yet?"

Xie Changgeng whispered.

Xie’s mother sighed: “You are the only one in the Xie family, and I’m looking forward to it every day. I look at her, it’s hard to give birth to her. If this continues, when will my mother see our Xie family grow up and have a lot of leaves?”

Xie Changgeng was depressed, but he did not show his face and responded vaguely: "She is still young, and after the family, her son and she are also far away. Don't worry, mom."

"Why aren't you in a hurry? Geng'er, let me tell you the truth. This time I came here, not only to see you, but also wanted to discuss with you. You can see when it will be convenient and get things done between you and Feng'er earlier."

"Don't Mu's family also happen to be here? Don't say we're hiding it from her!"

Xie Changgeng felt more and more upset. He pondered for a while and looked up at Amao standing aside, staring at him with wide eyes, brushing his hands, and told her to go out. Then he said, "Mom, my son has considered the matter of the daughter of the Qi family before, but he still feels it is inappropriate. The Qi family has great kindness to you, and it is a pity that she is a concubine. I am sorry for their son's meaning. You mentioned to you before. Mom still recognizes her as her adopted daughter and finds a good family for her. After marrying her, this is the kindness that you are thanking her."

Xie's mother had already lay down, and when she heard this, she sat up.

"Geng'er, what's wrong with you? You don't even listen to your mother's words?"

She looked annoyed and stared at her son suspiciously.

"Did the Mu girl say something and do something, and say she agrees with this matter here, but she makes trouble in front of you? If you are inconvenient, my mother will tell her again! If she refuses, then it will happen that you will be divorced! If you have the support of the Queen Mother, I will forgive him what Changsha can do to you!"

Xie Changgeng did not want to disappoint his widow's mother. The Qi family also wanted to do so, and he knew it very well. Moreover, for him, this matter was not a major event that needed to be carefully considered.

But in his heart, he had a sense of intuition. If he let go of this matter and responded, he would have no chance of turning around in front of the woman Mu.

The woman was like a waste of money to him, but if she abandoned her, she would be extremely unwilling to accept it for some reason.

"Tell me!"

Seeing that her son was silent, Xie's mother angrily patted her off the bed.

Xie Changgeng looked at his mother with anger and suddenly felt that the veins on his forehead were hanging, and he jumped a lot. His head suddenly hurt so much. He paused and said, "Mom, let's do the matter with the daughter of the Qi family. In the future, my son will treat her as his sister. My son's head hurts a little. Mom, stop, my son is back."

When Xie's mother heard her son say something about a headache, she looked at him. Seeing that his face was dark and Yin Tang was blue, she was indeed in poor spirits, and she felt distressed again.

She was full of plans for something that was not going well. She couldn't bear to blame her son. She only suspected that the Mu girl was blowing a pillow in her son's ear. Her son was confused by her appearance, so she disobeyed herself. She hurriedly said, "Okay, okay, let's not talk about this for now. Mom is asleep, go and rest quickly."

Xie Changgeng helped her lie down, blew out the lights, and walked out of the room. He felt extremely tired, and it was even more exhausted than a war.

He rubbed his temples and turned back to the room.

The lights were on in the doors and windows, and he pushed the door open and entered.

Before the Mu girl could go to bed, she sat in front of the mirror, took a handful of scissors in her hand, and trimmed her hair that he had cut with a sword that day.

When I tied my hair in the sun, I put all my hair together, and I couldn't see it. It was dispersed and my feet were uneven, so it became very obvious.

She was concentrating on her feet, and seemed to hear him coming in without hearing the movement, and turned her back to him without reaction.

Xie Changgeng stood there, looked at her back for a moment, walked over and said, "You can take the late night snack you prepared to eat, I'm just a little hungry."

Mu Fulan raised her eyes, looked at the man looking at him in the mirror, and said lightly: "I ate it myself. If you want it, I will get it for you."

She put down the scissors in her hand, stood up, and got up to go out.

Xie Changgeng hurriedly said, "Forget it, you'll eat it, I'm not very hungry. It's getting late, so let's go to bed."

Mu Fulan got into bed.

Xie Changgeng took off his clothes and lay down.

He was tired and tired, but he couldn't sleep at all, let alone continued the incident that was interrupted by his mother's sudden arrival. He closed his eyes for a moment, opened his eyes, stared at the woman's back lying towards him, he hesitated, leaned over, and said, "Mu, my mother is old. If she talks and acts, she will make things difficult for you, don't be as good as her."

Mu Fulan slowly opened her eyes, turned her head, looked at the man by the pillow for a moment, and said, "It's not that I don't want to bear it, but that my mother-in-law dislikes me and is unhappy when she sees me. Even if I want to serve, she doesn't want it. As you said, she is old, and I don't want her to be unhappy because of me."

Xie Changgeng reached out, gently put her into his arms, hugged her, and coaxed her, "Don't think about it, and bear it. After a while, she will go back and will not stay here forever."

Mu Fulan said: "It's okay for me to bear it. This is my duty and I deserve it. But I can't call Xier the same as me. Even if I just suffer the cold eyes of your mother, I can't stand it."

Xie Changgeng said: "Xi'er is a child. I will take him to see my mother in person tomorrow. I just said that she was your adopted son. Even if my mother doesn't like it, she won't do anything to him. Don't worry."

Mu Fulan broke free from his arms and sat up.

"You think so, but I don't agree. Tonight she comes and I send her midnight snacks. How did she treat me with your own eyes? What kind of virtue can I make my mother-in-law hate me so much, but treat my Xier well?"

When Xie Changgeng heard her comment on her mother like this, he knew that what she said was not unreasonable, but he felt very unhappy. The nameless fire accumulated tonight emerged, and his tone became stiff, and he frowned and said, "All she is here, what do you want?"

After he finished speaking, he suddenly thought of something.

"Mu, I know you have a lot of calculating. My mother doesn't know anything. If you dare to let her know the ugly things you have done, make things worse and stay in a mess, don't blame me for being rude at that time."

Mu Fulan said, "You are thinking too much. Even if I am shameless, I will not ask Xier to be humiliated by me regardless of your face. Don't worry."

She continued: "After I left, my mother-in-law must have said in front of you that my mother-in-law is not. I am indeed not worthy of being your Xie family's wife. I also said that I will do anything, it's all I deserve, but Xi'er, I can't tell him to be wronged, and I can't be wronged for a day. If he is wronged, it will be more uncomfortable than death by myself. If you ask me to take Xi'er back to Changsha, so that she can fulfill her heart and you can be purified. Isn't that the best?"

Xie Changgeng looked at her and remembered her helpless look when she was being treated hard by her mother tonight. Her unhappiness gradually faded away. She felt that her headache was getting worse and worse, but she was unwilling to fulfill her wish and let her take the opportunity to leave. After closing her eyes for a moment, she said coldly: "Forget it, since you are worried that the child will be coldly treated, you don't have to take my mother to see her. Send him to another place first and live for a while."

A pair of soft hands pressed on his temples on both sides of his thumb. His thumb pressed the acupoints for him. His techniques and strength were all appropriate and made people feel comfortable.

Xie Changgeng opened his eyes.

She knelt beside him, with long eyebrows and bright eyes, staring at him, and whispered: "Xi'er is still young, he will miss me alone."

Xie Changgeng looked at her eyes, and after a moment, he said, "You don't have to serve my mother anymore, go with him. When my mother leaves, I will pick you up."
