Chapter 116 Lost a Child
Xiao Qinghe was too excited and lost strength in his hands, causing his neck to be pierced and blood to gush out immediately.
Wei Lingze's pupils trembled, and he quickly stepped back: "He'er, don't be impulsive, I won't touch you anymore."
No matter how the two quarreled in private, as long as no one else saw it, it would be fine. But if Xiao Qinghe was injured, his mother would be the first one to not forgive him.
What's more, there are still many male members in the Xiao family.
Realizing the seriousness of the situation, Wei Lingze finally calmed down and softened his tone: "I was the one who made the mistake just now. I apologize. Put down the hairpin first and let me see if you are seriously injured."
Wei Lingze reached out his hand towards Xiao Qinghe as he spoke. Xiao Qinghe was not moved, but instead held the hairpin tighter: "Don't touch me, I don't need your concern."
Xiao Qinghe's whole body was filled with resistance. Wei Lingze was afraid of irritating her, so he had to give up. However, in his heart, he began to re-examine Shen Qingyuan and Chunxi.
Before Chunxi came back, Xiao Qinghe just ignored him. Why did Xiao Qinghe become like this when they met today?
Did Chunxi say something to her, or did Shen Qingyuan notice something and deliberately let Chunxi disrupt their relationship?
No matter which possibility it is, we can no longer allow Chunxi to continue acting like this.
As soon as he returned to the Wei family, Xiao Qinghe couldn't wait to jump off the carriage and rush back to Lingfengyuan.
Wei Lingze wanted to follow, but the doorman stopped him: "Master, Madam asks you to go to the main courtyard when you return."
Ever since Xiao Qinghe got married, Madam Wei began to delegate power to her to manage the household and rarely asked about their affairs. Suddenly she insisted on asking Wei Lingze to go to the main courtyard, so there must be something important.
Wei Lingze immediately turned around and headed towards the main courtyard.
"Mom, what happened..."
As soon as Wei Lingze entered the door, a cup was thrown at him.
Wei Lingze dodged to the side, and although he was not hit, tea still splashed on his clothes.
Yun sat in the main seat, furious, and the maids and servants in the room were also silent.
"All of you, step back," Wei Lingze ordered. He waited until the room was quiet before walking up to Yun. "Who made Mother angry? Why is Mother so furious?"
Yun glared at Wei Lingze, her face as gloomy as water: "Then I have to ask you what good deeds you have done!"
The Yun family has been managing the household for many years and has seen many ups and downs. If he didn't really know something, he would never be so angry.
Wei Lingze's heart trembled, and he carefully recalled recent events.
He had always been secretive about what he did to Chunxi and Shen Qingyuan. Even Xingzhou, his personal attendant, didn't know about it, and it was even less likely that Yun knew about it. The most likely possibility was that Yun knew that he and Xiao Qinghe had been sleeping in separate rooms recently.
Thinking of this, Wei Lingze said, "He'er and I had a few arguments recently, but I will resolve it soon, don't worry, mother."
"Why are you arguing?"
Yun asked.
She had long regarded Xiao Qinghe as her own daughter. Xiao Qinghe was gentle and generous, and after marrying into the family, she took over the household affairs in an orderly manner. She was not the kind of person who would act capriciously or throw a tantrum.
Yun stared at Wei Lingze, eyes full of suspicion.
Wei Lingze made up an excuse: "Nothing, just newlyweds, I was too clingy with her and she was a little unhappy."
A young boy who has just tasted love is always as ferocious as a wolf or a tiger. Yun is anxious to have a grandson, so she will not blame him for this.
Wei Lingze thought the topic could be dropped, but the next moment he heard Yun's cold voice: "So you forced He'er?"
Yun's tone was very serious and firm, and Wei Lingze's expression immediately changed: "Who is gossiping in front of mother?"
After Xiao Qinghe got married, Lingfeng Courtyard was almost entirely filled with her maids and old women who came with her as a dowry. Wei Lingze's first reaction was that these people were deliberately making trouble.
Servants who only recognize Xiao Qinghe as their master cannot stay in Lingfengyuan.
Wei Lingze quickly thought about how to get rid of these servants who were not careful with their mouths. Seeing this, Yun became more and more angry and could not help but stand up and slap him.
"You bastard! No one complained to me. If I hadn't been feeling unwell today and asked the doctor from Huichun Hall to see me, I wouldn't have known that He'er had lost her child. How long do you want to bully He'er?"
Yun's slap was so heavy that Wei Lingze's ears buzzed. It took him a while to find his voice again: "Mom, what did you just say?"
"I said He'er had a miscarriage, and the doctor said the baby was still young and the fetus was unstable, and it was caused by forced intercourse!"
Yun was so angry that her voice was shaking.
Before, Wei Lingze was paralyzed in bed. Yun was afraid that he would not be able to stand up, and also worried that he would not even be able to leave behind an offspring, so she urged them to have children after they got married.
But she didn't expect that the child would be killed by Wei Lingze just after she was conceived.
They are both still young, and they will definitely be able to have children if they take good care of themselves. However, Wei Lingze did such a stupid thing. I am afraid that He'er's heart has already been broken. How can the relationship between husband and wife be reconciled as before?
"You and He'er have been childhood sweethearts, and you've had a great relationship since you were young. She's endured a lot of pressure waiting for you these past three years. Now that you've finally gotten married, you should cherish her. Why are you treating her like this?"
Yun was puzzled and her eyes turned red. She felt sorry for the child and Xiao Qinghe.
He'er is the apple of the Xiao family's eye. If the Xiao family knew what He'er had suffered in the Wei family, could this marriage still go on?
Wei Lingze naturally thought of what Yun Shi could think of. He said solemnly, "I was a jerk before. I will go and apologize to He Er right now. No matter what method I use, I will definitely ask for her forgiveness. Don't worry, mother."
"How can mother not worry? He'er is not an ordinary girl. How can you force her? Moreover, a miscarriage will not only hurt He'er's body, but also her heart. How can you ask her to forgive?"
Yun also has a daughter. If her daughter is treated like this after her marriage, she will not let go of her son-in-law, let alone her in-laws!
Wei Lingze knelt in front of Yun: "Mother, the Xiao family still doesn't know about this, which means He'er still has feelings for me. Mother, please help your son. He has really come to his senses now. He will treat He'er well in the future. He can't lose her."
Wei Lingze's eyes turned red as he spoke, and he was filled with regret.
Yun still felt sorry for her son. She sighed and said, "He'er must be heartbroken this time. She won't forgive you easily. But whether she hits you or scolds you, you have to endure it. You have to be more caring and considerate to her, understand?"
"Son understands."
After leaving the main courtyard, Wei Lingze immediately went to Lingfeng Courtyard. Unlike before, the gate of Lingfeng Courtyard was locked today, indicating Xiao Qinghe's resistance.
Wei Lingze tiptoed and easily climbed over the wall and entered the yard.
"Master, the young mistress is tired and has gone to bed. Let's talk about it another day."
Xiao Qinghe came back injured. The maids and servants in Lingfengyuan were all worried when they saw Wei Lingze. Wei Lingze ignored them and rushed straight into the house.
