Chapter 309 Gao Wanxin's Heartbreak
Gao Wanxin had already eaten dinner, but the leftover food had not been cleared away. Zhao Xuan did not complain. After staying in Jiangcheng for so long, it was a luxury to have a hot meal or even a clean meal.
"Sir, please take it down and heat it up. Be careful not to get upset."
Seeing that Zhao Xuan ate the cold rice directly, Gao Wanxin said something a little worriedly.
"No problem. In Jiangcheng, I've eaten everything except raw food."
Zhao Xuan said, and then asked Gao Wanxin, "Are you full? Don't worry about what happened today, just stay here well."
Gao Wanxin actually wanted to ask Zhao Xuan what he thought. As for whether to marry into the Zhao family or not, Gao Wanxin didn't care.
And she always felt that the old lady had a lot of opinions about her.
The old lady is the type of person who says, "I can like you, but you are not allowed to do anything beyond the limit. If you do, I will be rude to you."
Her love is like teasing a kitten. She allows the kitten to act coquettishly, but she does not allow it to act like a spoiled child or scratch people.
Now Gao Wanxin is like a docile and obedient kitten in front of the old lady, but now she has become disobedient and has found another master outside. The old lady is unhappy but doesn't say it.
As for her desire to marry into the Zhao family, it was naturally not that easy.
Gao Wanxin originally wanted to ask a few questions, but she saw that Zhao Xuan was indeed tired.
Maybe he also has a lot of difficulties.
Gao Wanxin suppressed the discomfort in her heart and gently helped Zhao Xuan wash up and go to bed.
Zhao Xuan never knew that children could also bring him happiness. Perhaps he became a father too early, and at that time he was still playful and needed to be taken care of. He had no intention or feeling of being a father.
But now it’s different. Maybe because he’s older, he actually likes the fun of amusing children.
"Yier was born thinking of me, so his future will definitely be good."
Zhao Xuan had very high expectations for his son.
Gao Wanxin just smiled faintly, "I hope he can grow up happily and safely."
"Sir, it's getting late. You should go to bed."
"Yier and I will move into the wing room tomorrow."
Zhao Xuan said, "Who allowed you to live in the outer rooms? Just live in my room. We three have too little time to spend together. It's a good opportunity for us to be together now, and I can spend some time with you."
"Sir, Yi'er is not your only child. It would be better if you were more ordinary with us..."
This might protect them.
Gao Wanxin was afraid that Zhao Xuan would dote on Yier too much. If his love was too ostentatious, it would harm the child. But Gao Wanxin didn't know how to say this.
Especially now that Zhao Xuan is in the mood to love his child, if you suddenly tell him that you are harming him by loving the child like this, Zhao Xuan will naturally be unhappy when he hears it.
Gao Wanxin just sighed slightly.
But Zhao Xuan simply didn't have much time to spend with her and the children.
The next morning, he got up early and went to the morning court.
After Gao Wanxin and her child got up, they waited for a long time before anyone brought them breakfast.
She didn't know whether she should go to the big kitchen to ask for food, so she could only eat some cakes in the house and drink some water. Fortunately, the child was still breastfeeding, but she had little milk, so the child was not full and kept crying.
She was also very tired.
There are several maids in Zhao Xuanyuan, and they are all outstanding in appearance and serve him.
But after Gao Wanxin and the child entered the courtyard, the maids would come to serve them when Zhao Xuan was around, but when Zhao Xuan was not around, they seemed to have disappeared. Not to mention calling for anyone to serve them, it was even difficult to see anyone.
The child kept crying, and Gao Wanxin had no choice but to carry the child to the big kitchen.
There was no one in the kitchen at this time.
There was only an old maid napping at the door and a fire-making girl picking vegetables.
"Miss Gao is here. There's no food at this hour."
"I'll cook something for the child." Gao Wanxin said calmly. She held the child in her arms and looked at the things in the kitchen, thinking that she would just steam an egg.
The old woman at the door didn't refuse.
Then he said, "Miss Gao, you go ahead and do your thing. I'll hold the baby for you for a while. Look at the baby, it's quite beautiful."
Which mother doesn't like to hear her child being praised?
She didn't think much about it and let the old woman take the child away.
She had just steamed the eggs and was putting dry firewood into the stove when she suddenly heard the child crying hysterically. Gao Wanxin was so scared that she ran out immediately.
She saw her son lying headfirst in a wooden barrel, which was half full of water...
Gao Wanxin took her son out of the wooden barrel. His face had turned red and purple, and his clothes were soaked.
"Who is it? Who wants to kill my son?"
Gao Wanxin cried and shouted angrily. She was angry, as angry as crazy. She smashed the yard in the big kitchen and left with her son in her arms.
After changing the child's clothes, she lifted up her own clothes, held her son in her arms, and warmed him with her body temperature.
The little guy couldn't hold on and got a fever.
Gao Wanxin cried while taking care of her son, but Zhao Xuan had not come back yet, and she could not count on Zhao Xuan.
Gao Wanxin knew that if she wanted to survive in the Zhao family, it was useless to rely on Zhao Xuan.
Either she can establish herself in the Zhao family, or she can move out and leave here.
How easy is it to stand up?
She has no family to rely on, nor a generous dowry to help her. How can she stand on her own feet?
Gao Wanxin, who had thought it through, sat in the house holding her son, coldly waiting for Zhao Xuan to come back.
He finally came back at noon, but he had to go and have dinner with his old mother, so he just asked the servant to come to the yard to tell her to eat well.
Eat well?
How can she eat properly if no one brings her food?
Gao Wanxin told the servant that she wanted to see the master for something and asked him to be sure to pass on the message.
Zhao Xuan accompanied the old lady to finish lunch before going back.
Seeing that Gao Wanxin's face looked bad, she sat on the chair and the child in her arms didn't move, as if she was asleep.
"Is Yi'er asleep?"
"Sir, if you can't protect us mother and daughter, please let us go. Yi'er almost died in the bucket today."
"What?" Zhao Xuan's face immediately turned cold. "What's going on?"
Gao Wanxin looked up at Zhao Xuan, "What happened? How would I know? I just wanted to make a steamed egg for Yi'er. It's okay for me to be hungry, but the child can't be hungry. He will cry and make a fuss when he is hungry. But when I turned around, Yi'er was thrown into the bucket. I asked people, but no one dared to say a word."
"Sir, Yi'er is too young. He can't stand it. He will really die."
