My newlywed husband is infertile, but I’m pregnant

The old man actually woke up!

Qiao Xi calmed down and said, "I'll go get someone."

The old man made a vague hoarse sound from his throat: "Don't..."

He stretched out his hand with difficulty to stop Qiao Xi, "Don't... tell... anyone."

During the time he was unconscious, his consciousness was sometimes clear and sometimes confused. He could occasionally hear what was happening outside. The Zhong family eventually fell into internal strife, and it was unclear who would gain the upper hand when the two brothers fought.

He was also very sad to find that the heir he had been training since childhood was the most cruel one.

When a person lies on a sickbed, he can feel how good a character is to be soft-hearted and kind. In this comparison, the useless boy is the most reliable.

Qiao Xi sat down again, feeling a little nervous.

Does the old man mean that only she should know this?

She was on Zhong Yi's side.

There is no way he didn't know.

"I..." The old man had just woken up and was not speaking clearly. He gestured and pointed to the door.

Qiao Xi said, "There are bodyguards outside. The housekeeper went to get me some water."

"Hold on, I have something to tell you."

Qiao Xi clenched her fists so tightly that her nails almost dug into her palms.

"it is good."

She stood up and walked out of the room. Huo Sijiao's eyes lit up when she saw her. Qiao Xi waved her hand and whispered in her ear, "Talk to the Zhong family's housekeeper for a few more words and hold him back. I have something to do..."

"Yes."

Huo Sijiao didn't ask any more questions. She knew her sister-in-law must have something very important to say.

At critical moments, she must cooperate with her sister-in-law.

With her ability to make jokes, it was easy to delay the Zhong family's housekeeper. She walked straight along the corridor to the bathroom...

Qiao Xi closed the door of the ward again and locked it just in case.

She sat down beside the bed again and said, "We don't have much time to delay. If the old man has any instructions, please be brief."

The old man spoke very slowly, trying to make his words brief and clear: "Find someone... guard against Zhong Lingxiao, save my life... find an opportunity, let Zhong Yi come."

"Old Master, you can't meet Zhong Yi alone in your current situation. As soon as he arrives, Zhong Lingxiao will also arrive. They are on guard against each other and won't let you meet alone."

"That……"

The old man had never thought that he would be controlled by others and could not even tell the truth.

"Old Master, Zhong Lingxiao wants to kill you. You should understand that the only person you can rely on now is Zhong Yi."

“You are helping him…”

"I will definitely help him. We have been friends for many years, and he has done so much for me behind the scenes. I can't be the only one asking for it, I should also give something back. It was you who insisted on him returning to the imperial capital, so you should give him the Zhong family as compensation. At least Zhong Yi will be in charge of the Zhong family, and you can spend your old age in peace."

Qiao Xi expressed her partiality, "I won't lie to you. If you don't believe me, there's no need to tell you some things. I'll come again tomorrow, please think about it carefully. As for your awakening, Mr. Huang can tell from your pulse. I'll tell him not to reveal it to anyone."

The old man was sad.

He lay there and said reluctantly: "Let me think about it again..."

"Then please think about it carefully. I will come back tomorrow. Don't worry, I will not give up treating you just because of your attitude. Treating illnesses and saving lives is my duty."

Qiao Xi did this to reassure him.

Old Master Zhong didn't say anything else, he just felt a bitter taste in his mouth.

In the end, it was all just a calculation!

Everyone wants to get a share of the family property.

He regretted that he had let the two younger generations fight and put himself in danger. He thought that with the care he had taken over the years, he could still live for a few more years, but he didn't expect that he would almost die in an instant.

He resented Zhong Yi for losing face in the ancestral hall, and he hated Zhong Lingxiao's cruel heart.

No matter how hard I try, I can't find one that I like.

You can only choose the eldest son from among the short ones.

After Qiao Xi packed up her things, she left the ward. As soon as she opened the door, she saw Huo Sijiao pulling the old housekeeper of the Zhong family and asking him all kinds of questions. Even Sun Weimeng came and joined in the jokes.

The old butler saw Qiao Xi coming out and squeezed over.

"Doctor Qiao, I..."

"Old housekeeper, I have finished the acupuncture. Please go in and see the old man. Someone must be watching over him."

"Hey, thank you, Dr. Joe."

Qiao Xi nodded and said, "I'll go see Mr. Huang."

"Please."

Qiao Xi asked Huo Sijiao and Sun Weimeng to wait for her outside the door before she went to the next room.

She had to explain this to the old man.

Sun Weimeng leaned against the wall of the corridor bored, and gossiped with Huo Sijiao in a low voice: "Why did she ask you to hold the old housekeeper back? Is there some conspiracy?"

"Nonsense, what can my sister-in-law have?"

"I just feel like something is wrong."

Sun Wei took a look at the closed door and moved closer to Huo Sijiao. He looked at the bodyguards around him warily and covered his mouth, fearing that his mouth shape would reveal the information, because some people could read lips.

"Huo Sijiao, do you think it's possible that the person inside has woken up?"

Huo Sijiao was shocked by Sun Weimeng's guess.

The old man inside is related to the situation in the imperial capital.

If he wakes up, there will be chaos!

But why is it so mysterious?

"I don't know, and don't go out and talk nonsense. If you have anything to say, just ask sister-in-law later. Let's not guess here."

"it is good."

Sun Weimeng suppressed his inner gossip anxiety and waited in the corridor for a long time before he saw Qiao Xi leave.

He wanted to open his mouth several times, but was stopped by Qiao Xi's eyes.

After leaving the hospital, several people sat in the car.

Sun Weimeng panted and asked, "Is the old man awake?"

Qiao Xi was surprised.

Sun Shao sometimes looked slow, but he was actually very wise in some matters. At critical moments, he always made the right choice.

Maybe I have some good luck.

"I'm just guessing. If you don't feel comfortable telling me, don't tell me. This is confidential. I understand."

Qiao Xi pursed her lips and said, "You guessed it right, he is indeed awake. But I can't tell anyone yet..."

"Who does he support?"

"I didn't say it."

"That old man won't let Zhong Lingxiao take over, will he?"

Qiao Xi said, "Maybe. But I guess the old man wants to wait until he gets better before considering other issues. He is now lying in bed and is in danger at any time. If he makes a decision, it will cause some unnecessary disputes."

"He wants to keep him hanging? Isn't he afraid that Zhong Lingxiao will get anxious?"

Sun Weimeng didn't understand why two people had to compete for the position of heir. This was just idleness.

He couldn't understand what these wealthy and powerful people were thinking.

Instead, he wanted to share another piece of gossip with Qiao Xi.

"Guess what I just found out in the emergency room?"
