As soon as we arrived in Minyang Town, I told Hei Yi and the others to split up and search. As for me, I didn't go looking for them. Instead, I went to the yamen (government office) and asked the people there to help me search.
To avoid alerting the enemy.
I didn't ask them to post notices; I just told them to go to each village privately to look for them.
We still couldn't find it.
At this point, I couldn't help but feel a bit overwhelmed. Could she have committed suicide?
I can accept that she doesn't love me and doesn't want the child, but I can't accept that she committed suicide.
Hei Yi and the others noticed my unusual behavior and said that Qing Jiu could not have committed suicide. If she were so fragile, would she have waited until she escaped to commit suicide?
After hearing their words...
My emotions gradually calmed down, and I started searching with them. No matter how long it took, I had to find her.
When my mother and the others learned that I had not yet been found, they also sent people to help search for me.
I didn't just search here and there; I searched with Hei Yi and the others, one by one.
When our child was about three months old.
As we rode our horses across a river, I saw someone on the other side. The more I looked at her, the more I felt she resembled Qingjiu. I dismounted and used my light-footed skills to fly across.
As the distance gets closer and closer.
I was absolutely certain that the person in front of me was Qingjiu. She was wearing a light blue cotton dress and her hair was tied up in a woman's bun. There was a basket next to her, but it didn't contain a child; it contained grass.
Qingjiu also saw me.
She wanted to run away.
I stopped her: "Don't go yet."
Upon hearing this...
Qingjiu looked up at me and said, "The child is gone. If you want to kill me, then kill me..."
That's all!
What? It's gone!
Even though I had mentally prepared myself, my heart still ached uncontrollably. After a moment, I said to her, "I didn't come to kill you; I came to make it up to you. If it weren't for me, you wouldn't be in this state..."
Hei Yi and the others came over at this time, and they all spoke up for me.
I heard that I led them to look for her for several months, that I really like her, and that I want to marry her.
Qingjiu stood there for a long time without saying a word.
How could you possibly like me?
I approached her and said, "Why couldn't I like you? If you're talking about status, do you think my family cares about status? Do I care about status? If you're talking about looks, are you unattractive? Whether it's your looks, martial arts skills, or anything else, you're excellent in my eyes..."
As soon as I finished speaking, a boy with two little pigtails on his head ran over.
"Aunt Qingjiu, little sister Xiaoxiao is hungry. Mother sent me to call you back..."
Xiaoxiao, my little sister?
My gaze immediately turned towards Qingjiu.
Qingjiu lowered her eyes and said, "I lied to you. Our child is still alive. She was born prematurely and is now more than four months old. She is a girl."
I have a daughter!
I said excitedly, "Can I...can I see her?"
"Um."
Qingjiu led us toward the village not far away.
On the road.
After Qingjiu explained, we learned that Xiaoxiao had always had someone helping her take care of her.
certainly.
Qingjiu didn't let her work for free; she gave her one or two taels of silver a month, and sometimes she would also give her family some of the prey she hunted.
She did bring a lot of money with her when she came out, but she can't just sit around and do nothing.
Not long after.
Then I saw our daughter. She looks about 70% like me, with similar eyebrows, eyes, and nose. She's fair-skinned and tender, and incredibly cute.
Seeing that I wanted to hug him, Qingjiu said, "Wait for me a moment."
