Chapter 49 Chapter 49 Reunion
The official road was deserted and deserted.
A young man in ragged clothes was walking alone.
His hair was messy and his clothes were covered in dust and stains.
He was chewing a steamed bun in his hand, and when he heard any movement, he looked around alertly.
The sun has set in the distance, and the sky has turned from bright yellow to gray-blue.
Qin Bao recalled that day when someone came to Wutong Academy and said that his elder brother was temporarily busy with business and could not come back, so he wanted to take him to the provincial capital.
"Where's my sister-in-law?" Qin Bao asked, feeling wary of strangers. "Surely my sister-in-law is with me, right?"
"Of course, we'll pick it up on the way now."
After hearing this reply, Qin Bao packed up his things and got on the carriage.
It's all his fault.
He should have gone and asked his sister-in-law first why she got on a stranger's carriage so easily.
.....
"Bastard! Shameful liar!" Qin Bao swallowed the cold steamed bun that was choking his throat and cursed to himself.
It was the end of the month and he had very little money left in his pocket, so he had to spend it all on steamed buns.
He was not familiar with the road and asked as he walked.
He is worried that others will cheat him, and he also has to be on guard against bad guys who may come to catch him for unknown reasons.
Occasionally, a kind-hearted person would see him alone and ask him if he wanted a ride.
Qin Bao also refused, fearing that he might encounter human traffickers.
He estimated that it would take at least ten days or half a month to walk home using only his own two legs.
He was lucky today and found a small valley on the side of the road before dark.
At least I can avoid the wind.
After finding some firewood nearby and starting a fire, Qin Bao sat in the valley, feeling like an unwanted wild child. He couldn't help but take another big bite of the steamed bun to vent his anger.
He still has no idea where those people came from.
They coaxed him, saying that they would go to the provincial capital to live a good life, but they even kept a close eye on him when he went to the toilet, as if they were afraid that he would run away.
I don’t know how my brother and sister-in-law are doing now, or whether anything happened to them.
He disappeared suddenly, and my sister-in-law must be very worried about him.
It was late at night and there was a sound of insects chirping in the grass.
Qin Bao secretly wiped his eyes.
......
"Haicheng County isn't far from here. Let's go find a doctor." The man squatted by the roadside, smoking welding fumes, and said to Tian Er and the others sincerely, "The convoy won't wait. It's hard for us to keep stopping like this."
They were too close, and when Tian Ge smelled the smoke, he felt nauseous again, as he was already squatting and vomiting violently.
He stood up and stood to the windward side, his face pale.
Seeing his brother's appearance, Tian Er nodded to the leader of the team, gave him the fare, and said some polite words of thanks.
The freight convoy quickly set off, raising a cloud of yellow dust.
Tian Ge felt uncomfortable. It had only been less than four days since he set out, and the morning sickness had already made him haggard.
It seemed as if the child was also dissatisfied with the long journey and sincerely wanted to torture his father.
Tian Er squatted beside Tian Ge, reached out and stroked his back, his brows furrowed, and he was so angry that he had no place to vent.
I thought that once I found Qin Xiong, I would definitely help Tian Ge get revenge.
Why is this happening? Did the Tian family really misjudge the person?
Could it be that Qin Xiong still yearns for wealth and glory in his heart, and would turn around and abandon his wife and children to find a new love?
"Are you okay?"
Suddenly, a bony hand appeared, holding a water bag, and handed it to Tian Ge.
In an instant, Tian Ge thought of many things.
He would never mistake these hands. Tian Ge had gently stroked each of the old scars on them late at night, and the marks were left in his heart.
Tian Ge raised his eyes suddenly and his breathing stopped for a moment.
For more than 30 days, except for wiping away tears alone late at night, Tian Ge has never cried in front of other people.
He threw himself into Qin Xiong's arms, hugged him tightly, and sobbed uncontrollably.
If Tian Ge could make a sound, he would be crying loudly and his body would be shaking.
Qin Xiong was knocked back half a step, his hands spread out in a funny way, but they didn't fall on the back of the person in his arms.
There was a faint fragrance lingering at the tip of my nose, the scent of the person in my arms.
The horses by the roadside were not tied, but they were not running either. They were leisurely eating the grass by the roadside.
"Okay, you still have the nerve to come back?!" Tian Er clenched his fists, but Tian Ge hugged Qin Xiong tightly, so he couldn't reach out to punch Qin Xiong.
Tian Ge's chest twitched. She hugged Qin Xiong, raised her red eyes to look at Qin Xiong, and reached out to touch the white cloth on his forehead.
-----What happened to you? How did you get hurt?
A sense of familiarity filled Qin Xiong's mind and body. All the scenes before him told him that the two people in front of him had an unusual relationship with him.
But he just couldn't remember, and the back of his head began to swell and ache again.
Qin Xiong rode past and took a quick look at the young man on the side of the road. He stopped for some unknown reason. Seeing that he was vomiting uncomfortably, he untied the water bag around his waist and handed it to him.
Qin Xiong put his hand down stiffly, and tentatively placed it gently on the waist of the young man in his arms.
Such frivolous behavior will definitely result in a beating, and you may even be sued to the government for being a hooligan in broad daylight.
But he felt so familiar, as if he had done this action hundreds or thousands of times.
She was so thin that he seemed like he could hold her waist with one hand.
"Don't cry." Seeing that the little boy in his arms did not stop his frivolous behavior, Qin Xiong reached out his hand again and wiped the tears from his cheeks.
A pair of round almond-shaped eyes, with tears on the eyelashes, looked at him so aggrievedly, and looked at the wound on his head with heartache.
This boy can't speak.
He also didn't know when he learned to read sign language.
With such indulgence and closeness, and no physical rejection at all, Qin Xiong could only think of one possibility.
If that was the case, then what he wanted to ask was so stupid, but he really couldn't be sure.
"Are you...are you my husband?"
Tian Ge was a smart boy. He understood everything with just one sentence, without any process.
The bridge of his nose suddenly felt so sore and swollen that it was about to explode, and the tears that had just stopped filled his eyes again. He thought of countless possibilities, but he couldn't think of any.
Qin Xiong forgot about him.
......
Haicheng County, in a room on the second floor of a small hotel.
-----Let me take a look at your wound, gently.
"It's okay. It doesn't hurt."
Qin Xiong sat somewhat stiffly. Tian Ge stood behind him and reached out to touch the back of his head.
When Qin Xiong knew that "Tian Ge" was the person in front of him, the urgent and anxious feeling in his heart disappeared, and he was no longer in a hurry to return to Qingshui County.
It turns out that Tian Ge is his husband.
Qin Xiong subconsciously thought this was a good idea.
"Tian Ge" was the only name related to the past that he remembered a few days after he woke up.
However, knowing is one thing, and the lack of experience is another.
He only knew that his husband was Tian Ge, but he had no definite feeling about it.
It seemed like he was just a naive boy when he was riding on horseback, but in the blink of an eye, his husband was hugging him, holding his hand, and touching him. His heart was beating fast, but Qin Xiong held back and didn't show any abnormality.
Tian Er sat aside, unable to fit in with the atmosphere between the two. He tilted his head back and drank a cup of tea, drinking it as if he was drinking alone, and cursed inwardly, "Fuck it."
Knowing that Qin Xiong had encountered bandits and was hit on the head with a club, almost killing him, his anger was almost gone.
But it's just frustrating.
How come the people in the Bai family didn’t forget, but completely forgot about their little Ge’er.
Damn, his younger brother is still pregnant with Qin Xiong’s baby, and the father has already forgotten the baby’s mother.
It was already late, and when they arrived in Haicheng County, the doctor's office had already closed.
Tian Ge could only watch from the outside and did not dare to untie Qin Xiong's cloth belt. But looking at the cloth belt that was faintly oozing blood, her heart ached deeply.
This is a head injury.
Qin Xiong sat upright on the bench. Tian Ge reached out and gently held him in her arms, noticing Qin Xiong's stiffness.
Like a piece of wood, she leaned straight against him. He didn't feel any tension in her body. It was Qin Xiong himself who was tense. He was just leaning against him with his body tilted.
Inappropriately, Tian Ge smiled lightly.
They were too hasty. After he brought Qin Xiong back, they would run the small shop in peace. They could make money by selling some vegetables in the shop, which was better than Qin Xiong making a living in the mountains.
It’s good that he’s back, Tian Ge thought with relief, it doesn’t matter if I forget him.
But Tian Ge sniffed again, his rational thoughts couldn't suppress his sadness, it seemed to be related.
How disgusting, Tian Er thought, there is a third person in this room.
Anyway, I won’t be able to see the doctor today.
Although Qin Xiong had lost his memory, he was still nice to their little Ge'er.
He no longer stood in his way and was an eyesore. Tian Er said something and went out to his room next door.
Tian Ge called the waiter in, paid some money, and asked him to bring in a bucket of hot water so that they could wash and bathe.
Qin Xiong naturally helped Tian Ge translate the sign language, and after listening, his body stiffened.
He could see the entire small room at a glance. Where was he supposed to shower? Here? Should he go out and avoid it?
The waiter took the money, agreed with a smile, and went out quickly to prepare.
Tian Ge hasn't washed herself properly for four days.
He was the only young man in the team, and even wiping himself was a luxury.
He could only take advantage of the night to rest and ask his second brother to help guard the front of the carriage while he changed his inner clothes.
Tian Ge always felt that there was something smelly about him.
He had been thinking about Qin Xiong all the way, but now that he had found him, he no longer thought about anything else. Tian Ge felt that he was extremely shameless.
The water arrived quickly.
In addition to a bucket of hot water, the waiter also brought a bucket of scalding water so that they could add water at any time.
Tian Ge began to untie his belt.
When the outer coat was taken off, only the snow-white inner garment was left. When it was taken off again, there was a bright red bellyband.
Tian Ge didn’t wear a bellyband before, but more than ten days ago, he suddenly felt itchy on his chest, and that place suddenly grew a little bigger for some reason.
The weather has warmed up, and he doesn't wear thick clothes when he is busy in the store, so the bulge can be seen through his clothes.
At that time, Tian Ge didn't know that it was because of her pregnancy, so she secretly ran to buy a few bellybands. Because she was shy, she took whatever color the boss gave her, paid and left quickly.
When I got home and took a closer look, I realized that all I bought were bright red mandarin duck bellybands.
Thinking that it was worn innermost and no one else could see it, Tian Ge did not change it.
Now someone sees it.
Just like Qin Xiong didn't have the reality of having a family, Tian Ge didn't have the reality of Qin Xiong having lost his memory.
It was not until he saw Qin Xiong sitting on the bench with his back to him, with the tips of his ears blood red, that Tian Ge realized it belatedly and began to feel a little embarrassed.
After all, they haven't seen each other for more than 30 days.
Qin Xiong was gently poked on the shoulder. He didn't turn around, but just glanced sideways with the corner of his eye. Now not only his ears, but also his cheeks and neck had turned the color of ripe tomatoes.
"What's wrong?" Qin Xiong asked calmly.
Tian Ge walked in front of him.
-----Please help me untie the belt.
As she spoke, she turned her back, revealing her snow-white waist in Qin Xiong's eyes. A thin red ribbon was tied into a bow around her waist.
The red rope was extremely eye-catching against the snow-white skin.
With just a slight tug, the strap loosened.
"alright."
-----Come and take a shower with me.
Tian Ge didn't rush to take off her bellyband, but instead went to hold Qin Xiong's hand.
Qin Xiong's Adam's apple rolled unconsciously, and his eyes didn't know where to look. Finally, they fell on Tian Ge's face and he nodded slightly.
-----------------------
Author's words: After Qin Xiong found Tian Ge: Okay, although I still can't remember, I am finally not anxious anymore. Hmm...it seems like there is something else, but it shouldn't be a big deal.
Qin Bao, a wild child in the valley: Wuuwuwu... I miss my brother... I miss my sister-in-law... I want to go home...
