Chapter 229: Not Dead Yet

Qin Chi did encounter bandits in Yangzhou.

Fortunately, nothing happened, and Qin Chi deliberately told others that she was missing.

Song Jin was the first to break the silence, "Sir, have you caught the bandits?"

"They are all dead."

Qin Chi was reluctant to let her go. "It's not a big deal. Every time, students with outstanding grades may encounter some accidents. We haven't figured out who did it. It's probably one of the candidates who participated in the provincial examination this year."

"Some people are so shameless that they want to exclude those who are different from them before the exam."

Song Jin was angry for Qin Chi, and his face also showed some anger, "Husband, you must find out and teach him a lesson. It would be best if you can fight back."

“Haha, this is a bit difficult.”

Qin Chi didn't want to hit his wife, but he still had to face the reality. "The person behind the scenes dared to do this, his family must be rich or noble. I am just a peasant student, without power or influence."

Everything you have done will always leave traces.

When something happens to the other party, he will definitely be suspected.

There is no rush for this matter. Let’s wait until we find out who it is.

Song Jin raised his head and looked directly at Qin Chi, "Does my husband have any suspicions in his mind?"

"The scope is not large, we will have news in a few days." Qin Chi was as steady as an old dog.

He was not injured, just caught a cold.

I came to the county town to register for the provincial examination. Now that I have done my job, I naturally have to go back to Qinjiagou with Song Jin.

Until I got on the carriage back home.

Song Jin still had a vague feeling and felt uneasy. When she saw Qin Chi's sickly appearance, she finally remembered one thing: if he went back like this.

Was seen by people from Lao Qin's family.

Uh, will that rumor that was almost gone come up again?

Two years ago, everyone said that Qin Chi didn't have much time left. Two years later, he was ill again, which just confirmed the rumors.

"What does the doctor say about your condition?"

Song Jin asked in a gentle voice, "I know a few great doctors. I can ask them to come and take a look at you."

He spoke three degrees softer than usual.

"Need not."

Qin Chi seemed to have seen through her thoughts. He wanted to say that it was no big deal, but ended up saying, "I am still the same. I won't die for the time being."

This answer made Song Jin's heart tighten slightly.

Considering Qin Chi's feelings, Song Jin did not ask any more questions. She made up her mind that when Doctor Jing came, she would inquire about his condition.

With this thought in mind, I returned to Qinjiagou.

Qin Chi was helped out of the carriage by Song Jin.

Many people saw him looking sickly.

Sure enough, it wasn't long before the news that Qin Chi had returned home to recuperate spread, and even the old patriarch and several elders of the clan came to visit him.

The reason was that Qin Chi was going to take part in the provincial examination.

I am sick. Can I still participate?

After the elders of the clan came to visit the patient, the second and third wives also came over.

I learned that Qin Chi had an old illness.

It's inevitable that you will think too much!

You know, Song Jin had just refuted the rumor, saying that Qin Chi was in good health, and they believed it at the time. But how long has it been since then? He came back sick.

"Dalang's wife, is Dalang really okay?" When no one was around, Mrs. Liu hurriedly approached Song Jin and asked in a low voice.

When he asked the question, his voice was shaking a little.

Song Jin knew that she was concerned about Qin Chi, "He said it was the same as always, nothing will happen for the time being."

"Hey, hey, hey..."

Xiao Liu was in no mood to say anything more.

Song Jin knew that she had misunderstood again.

But not only them, but she herself felt a little uncertain.

Song Jin knew that Qin Chi would pretend to be sick occasionally.

But it is a well-known fact that he has been sickly since childhood.

Whether the treatment was successful or not was up to Qin Chi himself, and she didn't know how to feel the pulse or make a diagnosis. She wanted to find a doctor to treat Qin Chi, but he refused.

At this time, in the living room.

Qin Chi met wave after wave of people.

Originally, when he saw his parents, he said a few words to tell them not to worry. However, the old clan leader and others came over, as well as his third uncle and others, all to inquire about his health.

Qin Chi smiled and said it was not a big problem.

After everyone left, the second and third wives also came.

Now even Old Man Qin and Qin Mingsong came together.

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

The sound of children's laughter coming from the yard made the atmosphere in the hall even more depressing.

Old Man Qin saw his eldest grandson sitting in the hall. He had an extraordinary demeanor, but his health was not good, which made him feel regretful and reluctant:

"Da Lang, do you still want to take part in the provincial examination? Grandpa heard that there are three examinations in the provincial examination, and each examination will last for three days. Can your body withstand it? Otherwise, just give up."

Old Man Qin said this without any ill intention.

I'm just worried about Qin Chi's health. I hope he can do less and live longer.

Qin Chi smiled gently: "It's my unfilial grandson who made my grandfather worry."

"Grandpa doesn't want the old to send the young away."

Old Man Qin was mentally prepared for this.

It's not just Old Man Qin.

Almost all the adults in the Qin family have accepted this reality. Just like at this moment, Qin Er and Qin San were both depressed after hearing this, and did not say a word, including Qin Mingsong next to them.

Only Li and Boss Qin looked normal.

This looks like a very generous heart.

In fact, the couple believed that their son could live a long time. After all, good people don't live long, but evil people can last for thousands of years. In the eyes of outsiders, their son is a good person. As parents, how can they not know his character? Song Jin asked someone to make tea for everyone.

Then he made a cup of ginseng tea for Qin Chi.

After Qin Chi picked up the tea bowl and smelled it, he looked up at Song Jin. The depths of his eyes were dotted with stars and filled with joy.

Qin Mingsong met Qin Chi when he was in the capital.

Having heard of Qin Chi's talent and reputation, it is impossible not to feel jealous. However, seeing his frail appearance and thinking that he did not have much time left to live, the jealousy hidden in her heart mostly dissipated.

A dying person.

What does it matter if you have great talent and fame? Therefore, after a long time, Qin Mingsong said little, "When I saw Dalang in the capital, his health was not so bad."

"I was unlucky. I ran into a group of bandits in Yangzhou. I fell into the water while trying to escape. I stayed out all night and hurried back to Huizhou. I didn't dare to relax for even a moment."

Look, he fell ill just after returning!

Qin Chi didn't say much about this sentence later, but everyone heard it.

Boss Qin was surprised. "You also encountered bandits. Why did you tell me now?"

Qin Chi said helplessly: "I can't bring this up in front of the clan leaders. They are old, what will they do if they are scared?"

“I’m getting old too!”

Old Man Qin glared at Qin Chi.

Qin Chi said with a smile: "Grandfather is still strong and healthy, he can't be considered old."

Old man Qin felt very relieved to hear this. He pointed at Qin Chi and seemed to want to curse him but couldn't.

It did dispel the depressing atmosphere in the hall.

Song Jin could only say that her husband was very capable.

The rhythm of the speech is always controlled by him.
