Chapter 340 It's a pity for Shuang'er and the Shen family boy
She stood up and ordered her servants: "Bring Prince Huai into the palace, tidy up a good guest room, and settle in well. Find the best medicinal materials in the storehouse and give them to the military doctor, so that he can treat the prince well."
At this time, Mr. Du looked at Qin Rushuang in surprise: "Why did you let him in? Does he deserve to use those things?!"
Mr. Du stood up and looked at Qin Rushuang anxiously: "Tell me honestly, grandpa, are you still unable to let go of him?! Do you still want to get back together with him?! You are so confused! He has caused you to do that.
You look like this, how could you..."
Mr. Du hesitated to speak.
He didn't know whether his idea was right or not.
As an elder, he hopes to see the younger generation be harmonious and beautiful.
Teeth and tongue are often bumped, and it is normal for husband and wife to have some disputes. If an elder from an ordinary family sees that the man is repentant, he might let his daughter tolerate it.
But Mr. Du felt sorry for Qin Rushuang, to the core of his heart.
Not to mention the fact that Xie Xun almost caused Qin Rushuang to lose her life several times, even if Qin Rushuang suffered even the slightest grievance, he couldn't stand it!
He has the ability, and with a family fortune as big as the Du family, even if Qin Rushuang really leaves Xie Xun in the future, he can still support his granddaughter, but what he is worried about is...
Is the granddaughter willing?
Qin Rushuang saw her grandfather's expression of hesitation and anxiety, and knew that her grandfather was worried about her.
"Grandpa must have gotten a lot of news about the border issues. I'm going back this time..."
Qin Rushuang paused as she seemed to be considering whether to tell Mr. Du her plan.
Mr. Du saw that she had something to say, so he lowered his face and asked, "You made your own decisions earlier, which made your mother and I almost die of worry! No matter what you are going to do this time, you must tell us first!"
Qin Rushuang smiled, it was her fault.
If there is anyone in this world who would sincerely feel sorry for her, be worried about her, and want her best, then apart from the friends around her, the ones who care more about her are her grandfather and mother.
She should have a good talk with her grandpa. She might have to ask her grandpa for help with some matters in Kyoto in the future.
So Qin Rushuang opened her mouth.
"Grandpa, I used to want to live a normal life, but some people refused to let me do that. Now that they have dragged me to the center of power, and I am already in a high position, how can I be different from them..."
Qin Rushuang said lightly: "How can we not fight with them?"
…
Xie Xun knelt in front of the Du family's residence and sunbathed for half a day. After he fainted, he kept having a fever and could not wake up.
Since Mr. Du had a discussion with Qin Rushuang, he has no longer shown his face to Xie Xun and the people under him. On the contrary, he is very positive about Xie Xun's condition.
I can’t say that it’s positive, at least the surface is watertight.
Mr. Du opened the Du family's warehouse and took out boxes of things like thousand-year-old ginseng and hundred-year-old angelica.
If he hadn't been worried about having too many people talking, he would have liked to invite all the famous doctors from Jiangnan to show Xie Xun.
As for whether Xie Xun's illness can be treated well...
That's not something he can control.
At least on the surface he tried his best, right?
Because Xie Xun never woke up, there were only Mr. Du, Qin Rushuang, and Shen Xiaoyangmu at the dinner table that day.
Needless to say, Shen Xiaoyang was raised by Mr. Du and had a very close friendship. Mr. Du also regarded him as half a grandson.
Knowing that he also helped take care of Qin Rushuang and her children at the border this time, I was naturally very grateful.
Speaking of children, there is another interesting thing.
The baby seems to be born knowing how to distinguish between good and evil in people, especially those close to Qin Rushuang's family.
Originally he was not allowed to be held by outsiders, but when he returned to Du Mansion, he was sleeping. When he woke up later, he saw Mr. Du watching him by the bedside.
Mr. Du was also worried that his child would cry when he saw him, so he quickly got up and left, saying that he was getting older and was afraid that his old age would be transmitted to his child.
But the baby wasn't afraid of him at all, and didn't hate him at all. He actually made babbling noises and grabbed Mr. Du's sleeves, refusing to let him go.
Mr. Du felt that his heart was about to melt.
He held the child in his arms and couldn't bear to put it down. He wished he could give him all of Du's family property, as long as the child was happy.
"My precious golden bump!!"
Mr. Du was so happy that he didn't know what to say, but the old housekeeper stretched out his hand to support him: "Master, be careful."
Mr. Du turned back and glanced at him, "Do you even have to say that? Even if I throw him, I won't throw him, right? Baby? Ouch, my great-grandfather is such a sweetheart!"
How much does the old man like babies?
That makes me reluctant to put down my food.
He was taking care of the baby for a while, and was busy picking up vegetables for Qin Rushuang for a while, which made him very tired.
And Mu Duo knew that this old man with majestic eyes was Qin Rushuang's grandfather, so he naturally said a lot of nice things, just asking Mr. Du to like him more.
After dinner was finished, Mr. Du returned to his bedroom.
The old housekeeper had served Mr. Du for decades. When he saw Mr. Du's appearance, he knew that his back must be uncomfortable after holding the baby for a day, so he quickly pushed it up for him.
The old housekeeper had stayed in the Du Mansion for decades, and he and Mr. Du had long been both master, servant, and friend, so Qin Rushuang was inevitably mentioned in the chat.
"Master, don't worry. I think the little lady is doing well now. She also has a child. At least she has hope for the rest of her life."
Mr. Du sighed, "It's a pity that there is no caring person by my side."
The old housekeeper said jokingly, "Although the young lady has become a mother, her charm has not diminished at all. When I looked at the young man from the southwest, I fell in love with the young lady very much!"
Mr. Du frowned and waved his hand: "No, no, no! Although that kid is sincere, how old is he? He has never experienced anything, so he knows what liking is? What is love?"
"When these two people live their lives, whoever lives a clearer life and whoever has more experience will suffer, because they are always worried about things. I still hope that Shuang'er can find someone who loves her."
The old butler's hand that was massaging paused, and he asked hesitantly, "Master, you mean Mr. Shen..."
Speaking of Shen Xiaoyang, a trace of regret flashed in Mr. Du's eyes.
"Old man, I have nothing to hide from you. When Rushuang was still young, I thought about bringing him and the Shen family boy together, but unfortunately later... the world has its way, so I might as well not mention it!"
The old housekeeper thought that during dinner, although Shen Xiaoyang was not as sweet-talking as Mu Duo, his thoughtfulness towards Qin Rushuang was genuine, and there was a trace of pity in his eyes.
Or are these two people not destined to be together...?
Mr. Du waved his hand, indicating to the old butler that he didn't need to press the button.
He moved his shoulders and neck by himself, "I... am really old. I don't know how many more years I can look at her."
The old housekeeper said quickly: "Master, please don't say that! You are still strong! Maybe you can see the young lady's child get married in the future!"
Mr. Du glared at him, "It will still be a few decades before I become an old monster?!"
"I don't expect to live for many years. I just hope that I can see Shuang'er find someone who loves her and live the rest of her life beautifully."
The old housekeeper hurriedly spoke, his eyes full of expectation and determination: "Don't worry, sir, the young lady will definitely do it."
But he said it was Xie Xun.
Xie Xun was in a daze for two or three days, and finally his fever subsided.
When he woke up, Qin Rushuang was ready to take the troops back to Beijing.
When leaving Du Mansion, Mr. Du came out to see him off.
Xie Xun was about to speak but stopped.
But this time, Mr. Du's attitude softened a lot.
"Be careful all the way. I'm old and won't go to Kyoto anymore."
"Grandpa, it's because of my poor health this time. I will definitely apologize to you next time I come..."
Mr. Du still had the same polite look: "Your Majesty, you are joking. I, a half-buried man, don't want to care about your young affairs, and I don't want to care about them. You go away, please."
Seeing Mr. Du's expression of neither sadness nor joy, Xie Xun felt even more uneasy.
It was a completely unpredictable feeling of anxiety about his and Qin Rushuang's future.
He hoped that they could blame him and punish him, even if they let him go to the mountains of swords and sea of fire, even if they let him die...
But Qin Rushuang's indifference and Mr. Du's distant attitude even made him feel confused...
However, no matter how anxious he is now, he has to return to Beijing.
Because there are bigger troubles waiting for them in Kyoto.
Kyoto.
Xie Yang received a beautiful woman from a staff these days, but he didn't know how to eat it. He didn't come out of the room until after three o'clock in the morning.
His eyes were blue and black, his steps were sloppy, and he looked like he was "working hard" in the room.
Seeing that he had just gotten up, his subordinates became a little anxious: "Your Majesty! I have something important to report!"
Xie Yang raised his eyes: "What's so urgent?"
"King Huai has left Du's family and is heading to Beijing by water. He will arrive soon!"
When Xie Yang heard this, his eyes finally became more serious.
"Okay! It's finally here! Let the people below and Yan Guan get ready! This time, he and his wife will be unable to stand up!"
