Chapter 184 I Don’t Want You to Die
Xu Qingmeng had just returned last night, and had indeed been quite tense during this period. After arriving home, she relaxed for a moment and did not remember to close the door of the wing room.
Yun Sheng had heard what Huang Boyang and He had said before, and he had wanted to wait yesterday, too. It was not because the child was too young to stay up late.
Early in the morning, as soon as he opened his eyes, he slipped in because the door of Xu Qingmeng's room was not closed.
Yun Sheng entered the room and saw Gu Yunyi sleeping unconscious. She burst into tears.
“Big...big brother...wake up, you...don’t die...I...I will be good...and obedient in the future...wake up...I will..."
Xu Qingmeng was awakened and saw Yun Sheng like this, "..."
Although this scene was very funny, it was obvious that Yun Sheng was crying with genuine emotions.
Yun Sheng was usually naughty, so when she was scolded and beaten by He, it was all just thunder and rain without any results. Most of the time, one could only hear her crying but no tears were seen.
Xu Qingmeng looked at Yun Sheng's bean-sized tears falling down. The little guy's eyes were swollen from crying and were twitching.
Xu Qingmeng quickly got out of bed and walked over, "Shengjie, don't cry, your brother is fine, he's doing fine..."
"Wuwu...Sister-in-law!" Yun Sheng turned around, hugged Xu Qingmeng's thighs, and cried even more sadly.
“Sister-in-law, you are lying to me. I heard… heard… from my elder brother. My elder brother was… chopped… by someone… He is sure that he will not survive… Wuuuuuu…”
Xu Qingmeng looked at Yun Sheng in front of him with helplessness.
No matter how deep his sleep was, Gu Yunyi was awakened by the thunderous crying. Looking at Xu Qingmeng's helpless expression, he laughed softly.
Xu Qingmeng turned her head and saw Gu Yunyi, who was laughing softly. She glared at him and said, "Yunsheng, stop crying. Your sister-in-law didn't lie to you. Your brother is really fine. Look, he has woken up."
When Yun Sheng heard this, he stopped twitching and turned his head carefully. He saw Gu Yunyi waking up and loosening his grip on Xu Qingmeng's thigh.
"Brother, you are really not dead?" There were still tears on Yun Sheng's little face, but his eyes were full of surprise.
Gu Yunyi: “...Really!”
"That's great!" Yun Sheng screamed excitedly and danced.
Then he said angrily, "Humph, it's all Erdan's fault. They insisted that Big Brother was dead. I'm going to find them and tell them that they are talking nonsense."
After Yun Sheng finished speaking, he ran out in a flash.
Xu Qingmeng and Gu Yunyi looked at each other in bewilderment. Children are children, and their emotions come and go quickly.
Xu Qingmeng glanced at Gu Yunyi and said, "I'll help you up."
Gu Yunyi nodded, his face no longer blushing like it did last night.
Xu Qingmeng followed the same process as last night and did it again. After Xu Qingmeng closed the door of the wing room, she saw He walking in from outside.
He was also holding a basket, which contained a lot of vegetables, meat and an old hen.
Xu Qingmeng looked at He with a puzzled look on her face, and asked, "Mom, how do you have time to buy vegetables? Isn't the shop open?"
"Well, I knew you guys were coming back yesterday, so I put up a sign and I won't be open for the time being."
He then said, "Now that you are back, there will definitely be many neighbors coming, so we have to entertain them."
Xu Qingmeng nodded. From what she knew, according to the custom in Yan County, if someone was seriously ill, neighbors and relatives would come to visit.
These favors must be recorded, and gifts must be reciprocated in the future.
"How do you know all this?" Xu Qingmeng asked in confusion.
"Of course not. What can we hide in such a small county? Besides, Yun Yi is the first in the exam, and Zhou Yuanjia also did well in the exam. The list was announced a long time ago. The relationship between our two families has been watched by everyone because of Xun Ge'er."
"There was such a big commotion yesterday, how could you not know?" He sighed.
Speaking of this, Mrs. He's face was filled with depression. She had originally thought that her son had won the top three prizes, which was a very glorious thing. However, she had not been happy for two days when she heard that the two men were in danger.
Also, I don’t know who is so gossipy. They just brought the child back last night, and all kinds of gossips started spreading this morning.
Some people said that Gu Yunyi and Zhou Yuanjia had offended the nobleman of the capital city, which led to this disaster.
Some people also said that the rich girl fell in love with Zhou Yuanjia, and her childhood sweetheart, of course, was not happy about it, so he tried to kill him, and Gu Yunyi and Xu Qingmeng were implicated.
Of course, there are also some people who have heard rumors that the attack on these people was related to the fall of County Magistrate Liu.
As a result, the next day after they came back, Gu Yunyi became the topic of conversation among the people of Yan County after dinner. Even Zhou Yuanjia, who was previously unknown, was the same.
Xu Qingmeng didn't know all this yet. The restaurant was not open today and the yard was still quite quiet.
After she got up, she first cooked a bowl of lean meat porridge for Gu Yunyi. Due to the knife wound, Xu Qingmeng simply adjusted the taste and steamed an egg custard, which was delicious and nutritious.
After eating, Gu Yunyi felt tired and took a rest.
Xu Qingmeng suddenly became free and sat in the yard chatting with He.
Although they went to the provincial capital, He was thinking about Xu Qingmeng every day. Thinking about Xu Qingmeng's love of snacks, she bought a lot of them.
He took out a bag of candied fruit and said, "This is a new product made by a shop I passed by. They said it was made of plums. It's sweet and sour. You can try it."
After hearing this, Xu Qingmeng's eyes lit up. She immediately opened the cake, picked one up and put it in her mouth.
The sweet and sour taste made Xu Qingmeng's expression soften, as if eating a plum was such a happy thing.
In fact, it was not the case. She was just happy that He was thinking of her.
"Mom, you are so nice, you should try it too."
"It's so corny, just buy some snacks. Wouldn't it be bad if you don't buy them?" He joked.
"Why not? Everything is fine."
"You! Mom doesn't like this, so you eat it."
Yun Sheng sat aside and asked curiously, "Sister-in-law, when will this niece come out?"
He smiled and said, "How do you know it's a niece? Can't it be a nephew?"
"No, no, my sister-in-law is pregnant with my niece."
