Chapter 47(1/2)
The next afternoon, Xu Jin hesitated for a while and finally did not go to the backyard to wait for Qi Jing.
She was angry with Qi Jing's increasingly bold moves, and she was also afraid that Qi Jing would continue to act recklessly. Of course, she didn't know how to face him. After all, kissing is much more embarrassing than touching hands and hugging people.
Because of these reasons, Xu Jin hid in Qi Jing for half a month. Even if he pretended to accompany Old Mrs. Qi, she would not go out to see her. She just wanted to wait until she would not get hot because of the intimate face that night, and then teach him a lesson.
Early that morning, Xu Jin heard two rapid horse hooves sounded at the door of Qi's house.
She felt inexplicably panicked. She looked at Dabai who was lying on the ground and suddenly looked out, and asked her mother: "Mom, should Qi Jing go out to practice martial arts today?"
Jiang was feeding Xi Ge'er. Hearing the words, he calculated in his heart, and then recalled the sound of horse hooves just now, and said wondering: "Yes, but why didn't he come to get Dabai?
Well, maybe you Uncle Pang has new plans, it’s not convenient to bring Dabai.
Just in time, you don’t have to bear to leave it out.”
The mother joked about her, and Xu Jin smiled and then found an excuse to go back to her house. She was lying on the kang and felt depressed.
Isn't Qi Jing angry anymore?
She also wanted to go out to see Dabai today. She hasn't seen him for so many days. She missed him a little...
No one could tell her what Qi Jing was thinking. Xu Jinchai was upset and jumped off the ground again, preparing to find Cui Xiao.
When he entered the door, he was meeting Cui Wan and Cui Kang were about to go out. Xu Jin shouted sweetly: "Is uncle and brother going out again?"
After his wife became pregnant, Cui Wan was in a good mood and replied with a smile: "Yes, A Jin is here to find Xiaoxiao?
She is talking to your sister-in-law with your aunt, so you can go too, your aunt likes you the most.
My uncle is going to the city now. I will come back in the afternoon. Remember to come over to play again. My uncle brings you Chen Ji's osmanthus cake, your favorite food."
"Uncle still remembers that I like to eat osmanthus cake. It's great. Then uncle, let's go quickly, I'll go inside."
Xu Jin was really happy. He watched the two of them go out with a smile and then went to the room.
Mrs. Cui is now more than seven months pregnant and started to teach her butler Cui Xiao to help her when she was a child. Now that the eldest son is married, she handed over the butler's affairs to Cui Kang's wife Wang, and then asked Wang to guide Cui Xiao by the way.
When Xu Jin came over, Mrs. Cui had just helped to finalize something, hugged Xu Jin and talked for a while, and asked her to go to the backyard with Cui Xiao to play.
"Xiaoxiao, when I came in, I met my uncle and elder brother. What are they doing in the county town?"
Xu Jin had nothing to say.
"What else can I do? Just be busy with business. I really don't know why there are so many things outside that they have to take care of themselves.
You don’t know, if my elder brother hadn’t gotten married and my mother got pregnant again, my father and the others would have gone to the south long ago.”
Cui Xiao said a little complaining.
Xu Jinting sympathized with Cui Xiao for this, "Will my uncle go on a long trip again after the New Year?"
Cui Xiao smiled and shook her head, and said happily: "No, my elder brother told me that every time my mother gave birth to a child, my father would stay at home with her, and wait until the child was one year old before traveling. The second brother and I were like this back then."
"Uncle is so nice. Actually, I think it's not that the business outside is too busy, I would definitely not be willing to go there for so many months."
Xu Jin really thinks that Uncle Cui is a good person. Although he is often not at home, he will send letters and things every month, and he is very kind to his family when he comes back.
Even Uncle Cui remembers her preferences, and she must be more precious to Cui Xiao.
Cui Xiao nodded sweetly, "I know that it's quite hard for him to make money outside, all for us to make our lives better."
So although she misses her father very much, she can understand her father.
Xu Jin didn't know what to say, so he played around the bracelet with his little hands.
Cui Xiao finally realized something was wrong with her, so she leaned over to see her eyes dodged and asked softly: "What are you worried about?"
Xu Jin pursed his lips, but he didn't dare to ask Cui Xiao or Qiheng if he had kissed her. Asked, with Cui Xiao's intelligence, he would definitely guess that Qi Jing had kissed her. If Cui Xiao had not been kissed by Qi Heng, only she was kissed, that would be so embarrassing.
"It's okay, I'll go home to see my brother, and I'll come to see you again in the afternoon."
She got up quickly and walked out quickly.
If he couldn't speak out, Cui Xiao had no choice but to send her out.
The two little girls walked to the front yard and happened to see the maid leading a stranger who looked like a mother and daughter around the screen wall.
The woman looked about the same age as Jiang. She was simple and elegant on her shirt and dress. Although her appearance was not as bright and charming as Mrs. Cui, she was definitely considered a great beauty. Especially her walking posture was so beautiful that it made people couldn't help but take a look.
The little girl who followed the woman was only eleven or twelve years old, and she was also carved with jade. She was probably young, but she was not as calm as a woman. Instead, she was a little cramped. When she saw Xu Jin and Cui Xiao, her eyes suddenly became complicated and she felt a little hatred.
The two sides met, the woman nodded slightly, and then led the little girl to continue walking with the maid.
Xu Jin and Cui Xiao couldn't help but stop and look back at them until they couldn't see them. Xu Jin frowned and asked, "Do you think that girl looks familiar?"
Cui Xiao was also confused, "It's a bit, maybe where have you seen it?"
When she sent Xu Jin to the door, she asked the doorman about the origin of the mother and daughter.
"Back to the girl, the man claimed his surname was Zeng, and he said nothing else. He just asked us to pass a letter to his wife, and then the wife invited her in."
The two girls looked at each other and became more and more confused.
Xu Jin urged Cui Xiao, "You go in and take a look. Remember to tell me if there is anything new."
After saying that, he led Dabai out of the Cui family's gate.
Cui Xiao turned around and headed up the room inside the door, but Xu Jin was stunned outside the door, and then rushed to the door of Qi's house, "Qi Jing, what's wrong with your legs?"
As soon as Qi Jing was helped off the horse by Uncle Pang, he heard a familiar voice. He turned his head, looked at Xu Jin coldly, and asked Uncle Pang to help him in.
Uncle Pang had long guessed that the two children had a quarrel. It was estimated that Qi Jing was walking on the air today and rolling down the hillside because of distraction.
He didn't understand this kind of thing, so he looked at Xu Jin comfortably and held Qi Jing's right arm and walked in step by step.
The eldest young master was injured and the Qi family was in a mess.
Xu Jin has been staying with Old Mrs. Qi, watching the doctor clean up Qi Jing's leg injury.
The injury was not light, Qi Jing didn't say a word, but Xu Jin saw it several times and his eyes turned red. He forced himself to cry.
After a while, the doctor left, and Mr. Qi, Uncle Pang, also left. Qi Jing glanced at Mrs. Qi Heng indifferently, and lay down on the wall of the kang, indicating that he wanted to stay by himself.
Qi Heng told his elder brother to rest well and go out. Old Mrs. Qi sighed and said to Xu Jin: "Let's go, we won't disturb him."
"Grandma Qi, I want to stay with Qi Jing for a while."
Xu Jin couldn't find any excuses for a moment, and wanted to stay, so he lowered his head nervously.
Old Mrs. Qi smiled mysteriously. When Xu Jin looked up at her, she turned into a kind old lady again. She touched her head and said, "Okay, Qi Jing has liked to play with you since she was a child, so A Jin will help grandma comfort him.
Isn’t it just a fall, what’s wrong with me?"
After saying that, he smiled and looked at Changsun, and picked up the curtains.
The footsteps were gone, and the quiet needles in the room could be heard.
Seeing Qi Jing still lying there motionless, Xu Jin felt a little guilty. He walked to the edge of the kang and didn't know what to say. After a long time, he asked softly: "It hurts very much, right?"
Qi Jing didn't say anything.
Xu Jin bit his lip and gently pushed his shoulder, "Does it hurt?"
“…I can’t die.”
Qi Jing answered with his eyes closed, his tone very cold.
He liked this little girl, and he wanted to spoil her everything, but she kept silent and kept her word, leaving him waiting for so long.
He was anxious at first, but later... Qi Jing wanted to see if he ignored Xu Jin, would she come to him on his own initiative?
If she was cruel, he wouldn't want her anymore.
There is a rule on their side that unfamiliar prey will either be put back into the forest or killed directly.
Of course he wouldn't kill her, but if Xu Jin really didn't want to be with him, he wouldn't want to coax her anymore. He would just marry her home as soon as she got older. He would follow her whatever she liked, and he wouldn't care about it. He just wanted to be in his sight.
Now that the little girl is coming because of his injury, Qi Jing doesn't think there is anything to be happy about.
.
After reconciliation, Qi Jing was so cold to her for the first time.
Xu Jin has confirmed that Qi Jing was angry with her. Although he was wrong, she ignored him for so many days and he was injured again. Xu Jin is still quite sad.
Looking at the boy's stiff shoulders, Xu Jin took two steps to the side, tightly next to the wall of the kang, and looked at his face with his heart, "Don't be angry, I'm wrong these days, I shouldn't ignore you.
Qi Jing, I will never do this again, don’t be angry, okay?"
Her voice was soft and nervous. Qi Jing's eyelashes moved and she didn't open it.
"Qi Jing..."
Xu Jin continued to work hard, his head lowered, and he was about to face Qi Jing. Qi Jing suddenly opened her eyes, which scared her to stand up again.
The boy remained silent, staring at her coldly with only a pair of eyes. Xu Jin was not used to him like this, and plucked up the courage to touch the pillow next to his cheek. "Qi Jing, I really know I was wrong."
When he spoke, he looked up at him, and then lowered again, behaved.
When you are good, people want to rely on her everything, but when you are angry, they make people unable to sleep or eat.
Qi Jing didn't want to see the little hand that was playing around in front of him, nor did she want to see her angry and please him again, so she turned around and said, "I waited for you for a long time that day, but you didn't come. Later, I waited for you in the backyard and went to your house to find you, but you refused to see me.
A Jin, if you really don’t want to be with me, then go back and accompany your brother. As long as you take good care of Dabai, it doesn’t matter if I don’t see you."
