In the spring of March, the Chen family private school was filled with the sound of books.
Chen Qin was wearing a dark green bamboo coat and was sitting at the table. Flowers and branches were dazzling outside the window, and the courtyard was filled with sunshine.
On the open page of the book is an obscure Chinese language, which has been spoken for two and a half chapters.
A few primary school students peeked out of the window at the spring scenery from time to time. With such a beautiful weather, it was better to go out for an outing and enjoy the flowers, or ride a horse in the market, than to stay in school and study hard.
They thought so, but they dared not say it out loud.
In the eyes of others, it is a great blessing to be able to enter here.
You don't have to be rich to come here. Now that you are here, you can't waste your time. Otherwise, you will not only lose the face of your family, but also your husband's reputation.
But the spring scenery was so attractive that they couldn't hold back just the gentle breeze blowing in from the window.
Grass grows in my heart, and it grows again when the spring breeze blows.
Gradually, the sound of reading became quieter, but Chen Qin was still looking out the window in a daze.
A pair of swallows flew over and whispered between the beams.
The little swallows in the nest have just hatched, and they are chirping and asking for food from their parents.
The big swallow eagerly comforted her and fed the worms she had picked up to the baby swallow.
Chen Qin's heart ached as he thought of his beloved wife and unborn child.
"Master, how do you interpret this sentence?" A student came over to ask for advice.
Chen Qin came back to his senses and saw the fine down on the student's green cheeks, so he asked him: "Can you accompany your parents on a spring outing this year?"
The student was stunned by the tattoo, and it took him a long time to say: "I have never..."
Chen Qin then said: "The school is on holiday today, so go back and go out with your family to enjoy the flowers!"
There was a loud bang in the whole school, and someone shouted "Sir, you are wise" and asked what homework was left for today.
Chen Qin said with a smile: "Everything in the world is enlightened by knowledge. If you appreciate this wonderful spring with your heart, you will learn no less than reading the books of sages."
The students were even more happy. They said goodbye to their husband and rushed out the door, like birds out of their cages.
Chen Qin also got up, asked his entourage to pack his things, and went back to his residence first.
When they entered the courtyard, they saw Xu Lang leaning against the window and doing embroidery.
Chen Qin knew that it was the pattern of lotus and golden toad, embroidered on red soft satin, and used to make bellybands for their children.
Xu Lang didn't expect him to come back so early, so he put down the needle and thread in his hand and stood up.
Chen Qin hurriedly caught up to her and said, "Just sit down, I'm not an honored guest."
Then he said: "I saw you asleep when I got up early, so I didn't ask you how you slept at night? Did you have breakfast?"
Chen Qin had to go to school to give morning lessons to the students, so he got up early.
Xu Lang had been particularly sleepy since she became pregnant, and Chen Qin couldn't bear to disturb her, so he was very gentle every time he got up.
"These days are quite stable, and I eat a lot, but you don't have to work so hard. I just mentioned it yesterday, why are you going to a bakery shop before dawn to buy sweet cakes? You will come back after three or five
Just buy it." Xu Lang smiled lightly, "Also, why did you come back so early today? Didn't you say that Mrs. Lan took leave?"
"Spring is not a day for studying. In such a good weather, it is really a waste of time to stay in the room and study." Chen Qin looked at Xu Lang with a sparkle in his eyes, "I gave my disciples and myself a holiday, and we went out too.
Let’s go for an outing!”
"Why are you acting like a child?" Xu Lang was sweet and helpless.
Ever since she found out she was pregnant, Chen Qin was almost too happy to sleep.
Sometimes I am afraid that I will be cold, and sometimes I am afraid that I will be hungry.
No matter what he mentioned, he would definitely get it as soon as possible.
Xu Lang was so frightened that he did not dare to speak easily.
"I have asked the doctor. You are now three months old. Appreciating the scenery in moderation is good for you and the child." Chen Qin took Xu Lang's hand and said, "Don't worry, we will only go to gentle places. If you don't like it,
, let’s enjoy the flowers and bask in the sun in this yard.”
"So you like children so much," Xu Lang felt sorry for him, "If you had gotten married earlier, you would have had several children."
Chen Qin refused to marry her for ten years in order to wait for her. If Xu Lang had not returned to Beijing, he would have continued to wait.
"I like you, that's why I like you and my children." Chen Qin gently put Xu Lang into his arms, "My biggest wish in life is to grow old with you and have children."
In Aunt Qin's room, Xu Chunjun's face looked a little solemn.
She and Aunt Qin were the only two people in the room. There was a paper bag on the table. Aunt Qin took one look at it and slowly lowered her head.
"Auntie, are you going to blame this on your wife?" Xu Chunjun knew that the paper contained abortion pills.
"What the fifth girl said is right, I don't dare to quibble in front of you." Aunt Qin admitted simply.
"Third aunt asked my wife to take care of you in order to ensure that the child in your belly was born safely, but you did the opposite. Why is this?" Xu Chunjun continued to ask.
"I want to get rid of my wife," Aunt Qin closed her eyes and mustered up the courage to say this. "But the matter has been exposed. It's up to you to kill or cut her into pieces."
"Aunt Qin, although I have not known you for a long time, I know that you are by no means stupid." Xu Chunjun did not speak harshly, but asked more patiently, "This kind of trick of killing an enemy by one thousand and damaging yourself by eight hundred is not clever.
And it’s too easy to arouse suspicion, why do you still do this?”
Aunt Qin quickly raised her head to glance at her, then lowered her head, hesitating: "I'm afraid the girl may not believe it."
"Just tell me, I will judge for myself." Xu Chunjun said.
"I was born in a well-off family. I have been reading and practicing calligraphy since I was a child, and I also know etiquette, justice and shame. Unfortunately, my family is in decline, so I can only sell my body to bury my mother. If my third aunt hadn't bought it, I would have been bought by Chunhua House to be a prostitute." Aunt Qin said.
, "When my third aunt asked me if I would like to be a concubine, I agreed immediately. Compared to falling into the world of prostitution, this was already a better choice.
I regarded Grandma Sangu as my benefactor because she treated me really well. Later I learned about our family and knew that you were Grandma Sangu’s benefactor.
I know that you and Grandma Sangu are different from other women. They both want the prosperity of the family and are willing to sacrifice for it. I really admire you in my heart.
But a few days ago, I accidentally heard the third wife and the fourth lady talking, and their words were deliberately harmful to you and the third aunt.
Depending on their intentions, they won't take action in the near future, but I don't know when they will stab me in the back in the future.
There are people who have been thieves for a thousand years, but there are no people who can guard against thieves for a thousand years. Besides, they are in this house all the time, so it is too easy to do anything. Even tigers have time to take a nap, let alone people."
"So you want to strike first and take advantage?" Xu Chunjun asked.
"This is what I plan to do. They are like the malignant sores of the Xu family. They must be dug out ruthlessly." Aunt Qin said, "I know that you and Grandma Sangu are not good at killing them. You are frank and won't.
Framed. But if you are plotted, even if you turn around and punish them, won't you also be hurting yourself?"
"Aunt Qin, there are countless people in this world who are plotting and scheming, but self-inflicted harm is never the best policy. What you are carrying is the blood of our Xu family, and yours as well. The most important thing a mother should protect is her own.
Child, how can you harm a few bad people just for the sake of him?"
"But what else can I do?" Aunt Qin stroked her belly, how could she bear it?
"The Xu family has lasted for a hundred generations, and it is definitely not based on conspiracy. Once some things are done, the heart will be covered with dust, and it will never be cleansed. Only the two of us know about this matter, and I will not tell others." Xu Chunjun said
He picked up the package of medicine and walked out slowly.
