Mrs. Qin couldn't even believe the news she heard at the time. She thought it was a lie made up by Shen Xiaoyang to comfort her.
It wasn't until Shen Xiaoyang assured her again and again and told Mrs. Qin all the news he knew that Mrs. Qin believed what Shen Xiaoyang said.
If he hadn't been afraid of arousing Xie Xun's suspicion, he would have even wanted to take Mrs. Qin to see the secret passage.
That's right, after Qin Rushuang's remains were dug out and taken away, the Imperial City Army had returned to their posts. Xie Xun only occasionally went to the ruins to be in a daze.
However, bad news came one after another from the border, and sometimes Xie Xun didn't have time to go to other hospitals.
Shen Xiaoyang searched for a day when Xie Xun was not around, carefully searched for clues in the ruins, and found a secret passage. He followed the secret passage to the grove behind the courtyard and found some traces.
Although Qingzhi and Aunt Yang worked hard to erase the traces of Qin Rushuang's birth there, Shen Xiaoyang still found some clues. At least he was sure that Qin Rushuang must be alive.
This is already a blessing.
Then he immediately ordered people to fill in the secret passage overnight, erase the traces, and clean up all the traces left in the woods behind the courtyard, and then began to prepare for Qin Rushuang's funeral.
At that time, Shen Xiaoyang also comforted Mrs. Qin and told her to wait a little longer, and he would definitely search for Qin Rushuang's whereabouts as soon as possible.
But Mrs. Qin is already satisfied. No matter where her daughter is, as long as she is alive, that is better than anything else.
Now the remains of those two sentences have been turned into ashes, taken by Shen Xiaoyang and Mrs. Qin, and will be buried in the Du family's ancestral grave in Jiangnan.
By this time, Du's merchant ship had already gone far.
Mrs. Qin was comforted by Shen Xiaoyang, covering up some of the sadness in her eyes, and gently wiped her tears with her hand.
Shen Xiaoyang couldn't help but said, "Auntie, now that you have left Kyoto, you don't have to be so sad anymore. No one else can see it anyway, and no one will doubt Rushuang's death."
But Mrs. Qin shook her head, "I would rather cry my eyes out. As long as Shuang'er can be safe and away from those who hurt her, I will do anything."
Shen Xiaoyang didn't know how to persuade him, so he changed the subject and said, "Auntie, why don't you think about how you can comfort Mr. Du when you get to Jiangnan."
Mrs. Qin sighed, "It has been a month since the news of Shuang'er's death. It is not a secret. It should have spread to Jiangnan long ago. However, my father is stronger than me. I have not received any bad news about my father until now. Although he is sad, I think he But I must have gotten through it."
"Then let's go to Jiangnan as soon as possible and tell the old man the good news."
Mrs. Qin nodded and gave Shen Xiaoyang a look of gratitude, "Xiaoyang, this incident is all thanks to you. You have protected her since she was a child, and now that she has grown up and she is married, you are right She is still as good as before, I really don’t know how to thank you..."
With that said, he was about to salute Shen Xiaoyang.
How could Shen Xiaoyang dare to accept this gift? He quickly took a step away and supported Mrs. Qin, "Auntie, please don't do this. I regard Rushuang as my younger sister, so I will naturally protect her."
But when he said this, the word "sister" in his tone showed a hint of sourness that was not noticed by others.
Mrs. Qin turned away.
How could she not know Shen Xiaoyang's feelings for Shuang'er?
But Pian Pian Shuang'er fell in love with that cruel man and missed such a good marriage...
…
At this time, Qin Rushuang, who was missed by Mrs. Qin and Shen Xiaoyang, was feeding her baby milk in the room——
Goat milk.
Qin Rushuang held the baby in one hand and a spoon in the other, while Qingzhi on the side held a bowl of warm goat's milk.
Although the baby was still small, he moved his little nose and smelled the fragrance of goat's milk. He stretched out his chubby little hands like lotus root joints and made babbling sounds.
Qingzhi said with a smile, "Oh, the young master is so powerful. The child is just over a month old, and his little hands are waving so vigorously!"
Qin Rushuang also laughed: "This kid can smell the smell of goat's milk and can't wait!"
She put down the baby's little hand and said, "Be good, open your mouth, and mother will feed you goat's milk."
The baby is very cooperative and can’t wait to drink up the spoon. The spoon is also small and made specially by Taoist Lianqing. Each time he shakes up a small spoon, it is just enough for the baby to take a small sip without choking him.
.
When the child is just out of confinement, he doesn't dare to feed him too much every time. He only dares to feed him half a bowl. Even so, he feeds him for a long time.
Qingzhi rubbed her wrist. Her hands were sore from holding the goat milk. She thought it would be even harder for Qin Rushuang, so she quickly said: "Miss, give me the young master. You can rest for a while."
Qin Rushuang handed the baby to Qingzhi. During the handover between the two, the baby seemed to feel that his mother was about to hand him to someone else, and he frowned and wanted to cry.
But when he saw Qin Rushuang looking at him, she pursed her lips and swallowed back her tears, looking aggrieved.
"Miss, look, the young master also knows that you have worked hard, and he stopped making trouble when I took it over! He must also want my mother to have a good rest!"
Qin Rushuang gently tapped the baby's nose, "You are the only one with a bright mind!"
After saying that, Qin Rushuang looked at the empty bowl and felt a little sad, "Qingzhi, you said that when the baby grows up, will you blame me for not breastfeeding him personally? Do you think that his mother needs to take medicine because she loves beauty?
, so I don’t want to breastfeed him…”
Qingzhi said disapprovingly, "Miss, please don't say that. After the bumpy journey from Kyoto back to the southwest border, you were very weak after giving birth, and you were not suitable for breastfeeding yourself."
After saying that, he felt a little apologetic, "It's all my fault. It's my fault. I didn't find a satisfactory wet nurse for the young lady, so I can only let the young master drink goat's milk."
Qin Rushuang shook her head: "Don't say that. The situation was urgent and our status was special. How could we trust the nanny we found on the way? That's good. Didn't he grow up healthy by drinking goat's milk?
?”
The baby in her arms had eaten and drank enough. It seemed that she felt that her mother would not hold him for a while, so she reluctantly closed her eyes in Qingzhi's arms and fell asleep soon.
Qin Rushuang said softly: "Qingzhi, take the child for a walk in the yard. Walk in a shady place and don't let the sun shine on him. I'm afraid it won't smell good when I use medicine in the house."
Qingzhi nodded and said nothing.
She knew that the lady was not afraid of the bad smell of the medicine, but she didn't want her to see the way she looked when taking the medicine.
She didn't say anything and went out with the baby in her arms.
After Qingzhi left with her child, Qin Rushuang opened the wooden box she got from Taoist Lianqing.
Inside are a few fresh herbs that are still stained with soil, and their green leaves emit bursts of fragrance.
She gently touched the herb, then raised her fingertips after a moment. The area where she had just touched the herb was quickly corroded. After a few seconds, the skin and flesh began to slowly grow new.
Qin Rushuang glanced at her fingers, which were as good as new, and then looked at the box of herbs.
Duangucao. It eats away at the flesh and promotes muscle growth.
The mashed ointment was thickly smeared on the injured cheek. Within a moment, the corroded skin mixed with blood dripped down. The trembling eyelashes and physiological tears showed that this body was enduring a huge torment.
pain.
The tears quickly mixed with the blood and turned into tears of blood.
It hurts so much.
But compared to her being misunderstood by Xie Xun, being forced into a desperate situation by Qin Fanghao, and giving birth to a child in despair and humiliation...
