In the snow-covered winter, amidst the freezing cold weather, the Spring Festival passed quietly. In order to allow Chu Xiu to recover from his injuries, the entire Chu family declined to welcome guests this year. Fortunately, Chu Ling and others will attend the event after the new year.
Because of the Spring Festival, outsiders did not have much suspicion and still sent gifts to the Chu family as usual to maintain the relationship with the Chu family.
Chu Xiu woke up on the third day after his fever subsided. He seemed to have collapsed, but he finally saved his life.
As for Ji Xiaoman's wedding to him, it turned out that he had already noticed it when he was in a coma. However, because his body could not wake up, he could only let others control him. Fortunately, he didn't care too much about what kind of person he married.
Women, whether they were Ji Xiaoman or the daughter of the governor of Shuzhou, weren't they all arranged for him by others?
As long as the other party doesn't affect him, he will accept it.
What makes him even more sad than the fact that he has an extra wife inexplicably is that with his current physical condition, although he has saved his life, it is impossible to participate in this Spring Festival. He hurried back from Huating with great pains.
Liuzhou wanted to compete with Chu Ling, but now he not only lost this opportunity completely, but also owed a favor because the other party helped him catch the murderer. He felt annoyed and helpless, but even more
Many people hate the injustice of fate.
Why is it that Chu Ling can go smoothly no matter what he does, but he is restricted everywhere?
He has already accepted that he does not have Chu Ling's talent, but why can't he even be luckier than him?
The day after Chu Xiu woke up, Shi Chunfen came to see him in person. In addition to wanting to thank him for risking his life to break the situation, she also hoped that he could help her keep the secret, otherwise she would lie in front of the old lady and the head of Huating County.
Things will soon be revealed.
Because of multiple fractures in his body, Chu Xiu could not get out of bed to see her, so he could only meet her while sitting on the bed. After what happened last time, both of them were very cautious this time and each sent their men to guard outside the house. Ji Xiao
Chu Xiu's wife, who was also a party to the whole incident, stayed with her in the house this time.
The two looked at each other, and when Chu Xiu saw Chu Xiu's calm look, he suddenly became a little more worried, "Why did you lie to me then? Did you know that you might die?"
Seeing that she was talking about this as soon as she opened her mouth, Chu Xiu was stunned for a moment and said with a smile: "In that situation, either you died or I died, or we both died together. As a man, do you think I should live in a
Living an ignoble existence under the protection of a woman?"
"What's wrong with the woman?" Shi Chunfen said angrily: "I am your sister-in-law. It is only natural for the sister-in-law to protect the second brother. If you have any trouble, how do you want me to explain to the county boss and your eldest brother? Do you know that you
How worried were they about you while you were in a coma?"
Hearing the last sentence, Chu Xiu narrowed his eyes and said calmly: "You have gone in such a big circle and you just want to say this?"
Seeing that he had exposed his intentions, Shi Chunfen felt helpless, "Isn't it? If you don't believe it, you can ask Xiaoman. During the time when you were in coma, the county master didn't close his eyes for two days and two nights, and stayed by your side almost every step of the way.
Before going to bed, you also found the best doctor in Liuzhou to help you survive. Needless to say, your eldest brother personally led a team back to arrest people, and almost fell out with the entire second room. How much do they care about you? Do you think you have arrived?
Do you still have any doubts now?"
"Yes." Hearing Shi Chunfen mentioning himself, Ji Xiaoman cautiously interjected: "The uncle and the county chief are indeed very nervous about you, and even the eldest young lady has been guarding your bedside for a long time."
Chu Xiu glanced at her, but the focus fell on the last sentence, "Really? You have also been guarding me for a long time?"
These words were inexplicably ambiguous. Ji Xiaoman was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously turned his head to look at the Spring Equinox.
Shi Chunfen frowned and said displeasedly: "I am your elder sister-in-law, so naturally I have to watch over you for your elder brother."
If she hadn't dealt with Chu Xiu in Huating, she would have almost thought that he was being deliberately ambiguous.
But after noticing Ji Xiaoman's gaze, Shi Chunfen quickly understood that this guy was trying to bring hatred to her!
I don't know what's going on. He is obviously not a bad person, but he insists on using harsh words and methods to treat his relatives. Shi Chunfen becomes more and more curious. What did Chu Ling do to make Chu Xiu hate him so much?
Seeing her break the ambiguous atmosphere with ease, Chu Xiu shrugged and said calmly: "Since sister-in-law cares about me so much, why not explain first how your so-called good friend became my wife?"
When these words came out, Shi Chunfen and Ji Xiaoman were stunned at the same time, both of them looked a little guilty.
Although Ji Xiaoman was overjoyed openly, from Chu Xiu's point of view, it was as if the two of them had teamed up to plot against him. If he revealed the matter, both she and Ji Xiaoman would be ruined, at least the old lady.
He Huating County Chief will be the first to let them go.
"It's a long story, but it's definitely not what you think." Shi Chunfen was about to explain.
Ji Xiaoman, who was behind her, suddenly knelt down and apologized to Chu Xiu: "Second Master, if you want to blame, just blame me. Everything has nothing to do with the eldest mistress, she just wants to help me!"
This sudden interruption made it difficult for Shi Chunquin to continue.
She closed her mouth helplessly and listened silently to Ji Xiaoman's cry, "I have always admired the second master, so I asked the eldest mistress to help me meet you. I didn't expect it to be such a coincidence. I was going to meet you that day.
When you were there, there was a fight in the street and blocked my carriage, so I didn't go to the appointment in time, which almost caused an accident between you and the eldest mistress. Everything was caused by my selfishness, and the third master took advantage of it.
If you have the chance, please punish me, and don’t blame the eldest mistress!"
"There was a fight on the street and blocked your carriage?" Chu Xiu quickly grasped the key point of his words and subconsciously glanced at Shi Chunquin.
Seeing that the other party's eyes flickered guiltily, the corners of his lips slowly raised an arc, and he said lightly: "That is indeed a coincidence. I can't blame you for breaking the promise."
Ji Xiaoman was overjoyed, and raised his head with tears in his eyes, looking pitiful, "Will the second master blame me for insisting on marrying you?"
These words were full of grievances and were obviously showing weakness to Chu Xiu.
Originally, he was rescued by Ji Xiaoman, so he should have looked at the other person with tears of gratitude, sympathized with the other person's arbitrary actions, and appreciated the other person's efforts, but he did not show anything, he just said calmly: "Forget it, it's a done deal, everything is my fate, strange
I can’t help you.”
Ji Xiaoman's expression froze and he was speechless for a long time.
This means he is dissatisfied with her. It seems that showing weakness is of no use to Chu Xiu.
