The eldest wife is indeed not a strong person. If she can't count on her husband, she can only count on others.
But now the only person who can be counted on has no intention of helping him at all. The eldest lady has finally seen clearly. Who can you count on? You can only count on yourself.
Fortunately, she used to take care of her brother-in-law like a father and mother, but she was so ungrateful to him.
Lu Zeng looked at this lady and asked, "Why is there such a dishonest woman?"
"Madam, please be careful. All the names listed above will be present. If you really have any special reasons for not being able to attend this family meeting, then you can also personally ask our Mr. Tang for instructions. The post will be placed on the table by Mr. Lu first.
Sorry to bother you."
After Lu Zeng said a few words, he turned around and left.
He was too lazy to talk to her. He had seen the surveillance in Suo He. Not to mention someone he knew, even a stranger would not be able to do this.
The servants of the Tang family's old residence, as well as the servants serving in the front villa, were all invited. The posts were different from those of the owner, but everyone received one.
It is novel to use invitations to invite people to attend family meetings. The second master and several concubines were not invited. The Tang family just arrived, so it was serious but not grand.
Hospital.
Xin Yi woke up in the morning, and Tang Jinteng sat by the bed all night.
Xin Yi turned around, her whole body ached, and her hand was hanging from the water. She must have been pulled, so she let out a soft cry.
Tang Jinteng immediately opened his eyes, with a tired look on his face, stood up and adjusted her body:
"What's wrong? Tell me, what's wrong with you?"
"It hurts." Xin Yi looked at the man close at hand, her eyes suddenly became hot, and she reached out to grab his clothes.
"Tang Jinteng, why are you here?"
He understood the sadness and grievance in the words.
He understood her sadness and despair when she asked for help in vain, and understood the questioning and disappointment in her words.
Tang Jinteng's eyes were red, he sat gently on the edge of the bed, leaned over and gently covered her, and whispered.
"I'm late, Yibao, I'm sorry, please forgive me this time, okay?"
"I..." Xin Yi thought of what happened yesterday, and there was no sound for a long time. She was brought back to her thoughts when she heard the deep voice of the man who was lightly attached to her.
"Shall we go back to Qingcheng?" Xin Yi whispered.
Tang Jinteng kissed her cheek sideways. He could not use delaying methods to force her to adapt to the Tang family's life, and he could not keep avoiding this issue.
She should be told that their home will be in the capital from now on.
But she had just lost her child, how could she tell her at this time? She was already disgusted and insisted on staying in the capital. After this incident, she will be even more resistant to life here.
Tang Jinteng remained silent and had to change his words:
"I will immediately arrange for someone to build a separate villa in the front yard. From now on, we will live alone, okay?"
There were too many unexpected surprises, so it was better to avoid them.
The old man is getting older, and it is natural for them to live together as children. But if Tang Jinteng wants to live outside all the time, it is against filial piety. He was single before, but now he is married, and the family should live together.
The Tang family's old house is the foundation that the old man has maintained all his life. Tang Jinteng will not move out and live outside, at least not for the rest of his life.
"Are you not going to Qingcheng anymore?" Xin Yi suddenly asked.
Tang Jinteng propped up his body, held her hand, and sighed: "How can you go back when your body is like this? Get your body in good shape first, and we'll talk about other things later, okay?"
Of course Xin Yi realized something and gently pulled her hand out of his palm.
"Actually, you don't love me at all, right?"
Xin Yi's face turned outward, no longer looking at Tang Jinteng, her eyes flashed with tears, and her voice was hoarse and low, which sounded very distressing.
"Yesterday, someone in your family... I was bullied."
Xin Yi stopped talking and bit her lip:
"I'm not trying to sow discord between you and your family. I really just feel that I'm so pitiful..."
When the eldest wife arrived at that time, she grabbed her clothes, but she pushed her away and left. Even if there was some trouble in the past, is it too much to push her away?
There were so many people, so many people were surrounding her in her sight, but they were just watching her in pain, and no one even tried to help her.
Xin Yi spoke, tears rolling down her face due to grievance, and her words were interrupted repeatedly due to her sobs.
"Tang Jinteng, I want to go home..."
Tang Jinteng held her hand tightly, brought it to his lips and kissed her, "I understand. When you recover, we will go home."
"This time, it is my responsibility. Please forgive me for being inconsiderate. I also apologize to you on behalf of my family. I understand your grievances and understand them all." Tang Jinteng said in a low voice. He had not slept a wink all night, and he was already a little agitated.
He was congested, and his eyes were even more alarmingly red now.
Xin Yi heard clearly this time that he was apologizing, holding her hand sincerely and begging her to forgive him.
Xin Yi turned to look at him, biting her lip, her lips twitching and shaking slightly, and her tears couldn't stop flowing.
Tang Jinteng's eyes became wet, and tears flowed down.
"Yibao, as long as you don't give up your marriage to me, I can do anything you want." Tang Jinteng took a deep breath and lowered his voice.
He was afraid that she would be wronged, shrink back, and want a divorce. He thought about this all night and what he should do to appease her.
"I..." She had never thought about this at all. Besides, how could she have the right to say "no" to their marriage?
She just, really felt wronged this time.
"Your whole family bullies me and looks down on me..."
It didn't matter if she was beaten by him before, but now she was beaten by others and even fell down the steps. If her brain hit the ground, she would definitely have a brain injury.
"I promise, it won't happen again, huh?" Tang Jinteng held her hand and said firmly.
Xin Yi's hand rolled down on Tang Jinteng's palm, and then she took his hand and gently covered it on her lower abdomen through the quilt.
"He's gone..."
Tang Jinteng's eyes turned red again, and he leaned over and hugged her into his arms:
"It will happen again in the future, it doesn't matter, we will have it again."
Xin Yi sniffed. She thought he would be furious. She knew that he actually wanted a child, but she didn't want to have one now.
He had taken measures during the safe period, but this child obviously did not come during the safe period.
What an unexpected surprise, when she knew it, it was already too late.
Tang Jinteng's deep sorrow surprised Xin Yi and made her feel even sadder.
She couldn't explain how she felt. The word "mother" was a bit unfamiliar, but thinking that she had been a mother for twenty days in a daze, and suddenly she was gone again. It felt like God had played a big joke on her. She
They haven't reacted yet.
"Don't cry, Tang Jinteng. If you cry, I want to cry too..."
Xin Yi choked, her tears rolling out, she held her husband's head and let him bury his emotions in the crook of her neck.
He is also fragile, and a man with too much sense of responsibility is actually easily hurt, especially after something like this happens.
Xin Yi had a needle stuck in the back of her hand, and it actually hurt a little when she raised her hand, but she didn't make a sound and gently followed her husband's hair.
She knew that he needed some time to calm down his emotions. If possible, he would never let her see this side of him, but the emotions came too violently, shattering the strength under his disguise.
Such a strong and aloof man, at this moment, he was having an emotional breakdown with his head on his neck, crying uncontrollably.
This was actually very shocking and heartbreaking. Xin Yi comforted her intermittently, but she was helpless and cried like a child.
"Don't cry, Tang Jinteng, don't cry..."
Tang Jinteng was trying his best to suppress his collapsed emotions. He clasped Xin Yi's hand with his left hand, but the deep voice still came out uncontrollably.
Xin Yi followed Tang Jinteng's hair, which was what he often did to her. Seeing him like this made her sadder than anyone else.
Stroking it smoothly, the needle tube returned some blood, and the movement was not small. The blood poured into the tube as soon as it was lifted, and the blood red instantly rushed to the hanging bottle.
Xin Yi was startled, looked at the bright red tube, opened her mouth, then bit her lip, cried softly, and said nothing.
The back of my hand was so swollen that it hurt. The blood flowed back so quickly that the blood vessels bulged.
It was impossible for people outside to know what was going on in the ward. Lu Zeng's eyes were red, and he would take a look from time to time, then walk away again.
When I saw it again this time, I was shocked.
"Fruit wood!"
Guo Mu immediately jumped up, "What's going on?"
You haven't slept all night, okay? He just took a nap.
Lu Zeng asked him to go over. Guo Mu stood on tiptoe and glanced at the glass wall. He regained his health and paused:
"It's nothing serious. It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter if you wait until Mr. Tang feels better before going in."
Lu Zeng didn't say anything. Even if something happened, he couldn't go in at this time. Men are actually very fragile sometimes. It's better for Mr. Tang to show this side to Xin Yi than to keep it in his heart.
After about ten minutes, it finally became quiet inside.
Guo Mu dressed up, knocked on the door and walked in.
"Mr. Tang, let me show it to Miss Xin Yi," he pointed at the water and said, "It's a little bit better."
Tang Jinteng nodded slightly, but looked at Xin Yi's hand.
"Does it hurt?"
"A little bit." Xin Yi responded in a low voice with red eyes.
Guo Mu moved the needle and re-tied it, and found a blood vessel on his arm. The blood vessel on the back of his hand was broken and turned purple.
The blood returned only for a moment, and the potion in the tube became clean and transparent again. Tang Jinteng didn't notice it, but he felt heartbroken when he saw the slightly swollen bruise on the back of her hand.
Xin Yi was afraid of injections. The feeling of needle holes piercing the skin and piercing into the flesh simply challenged her endurance limit, and her body tensed up.
Guomu couldn't help but patted her arm: "Relax, it won't go in."
"Tang Jinteng..." Xin Yi turned to Tang Jinteng, who bit her lip, "Don't be afraid, I'm here."
Holding her other hand and whispering it gently, Guomu took the opportunity to change it and left with a smile.
Xin Yi cried, "I feel pain all over my body."
Tang Jinteng comforted him in a low voice: "It doesn't hurt. I'm here. It doesn't hurt, eh?"
Xin Yi glanced at him sadly. The key point was that she wanted to go to the bathroom now.
