Loyal heart travels a long way

Qin Yong felt that he had some kind of hysteria. In order to save such a child, he put himself in it.

The situation in the Song Mansion at that time did not allow him to think too much, not to mention Master Song's virtue of "If you don't marry my daughter, I will strangle her to death", even Qin Yong himself can't afford it.

He is not alone, and he still has official duties. If there are any ugly rumors, it will be even more difficult for her mother to return to the Song Mansion in the future.

This dumb person can only bite the bullet and eat it. The person is caught in his arms, and he can't put it back and say that if he doesn't save it, he won't save it.

He knew very well that if he let go, the child might have no way of life. The way Mrs. Song looked at Song Zhiyao was more fierce than the way his father threw his pen, ink, paper and inkstone.

Qin Yong sat in the carriage, holding a small ball in his arms, and wanted to sigh: How can such a small child be given a title?And he's still a boy, so he can't really accept him as a child bride, can he?

Forget it, when the child wakes up, let him talk about his own plans, and treat him as if he jumped out of a rock and has nothing to do with the Song family.

I don't know what dream Song Zhiyao is having now, the child is sweating all over, his face and neck are covered with rashes, and there are several welts from the cane on his arms, Qin Yong is afraid that he will hurt his body when he presses on the wound, I had to hold him upright in my arms.

The child was so dizzy from the fever that his whole body was limp like a ball of dough, and he couldn't stand upright at all. His arms hung limply on Qin Yong's face, and his head and face were buried in his neck.

The child was muttering, unable to understand what was being said, crying and sobbing as he spoke, feeling aggrieved.

Qin Yong didn't know how to coax children, one head and two big ones, finally made it back to Yunxu Pavilion, the doctor Qian Duoduo arranged for the guards in advance immediately greeted him.

Qin Yong hesitated for a moment, originally wanted to open a separate room for the child, but firstly, this little thing was already his nominal child bride-in-law, so it seemed not good to sleep in a separate room, and secondly, it was inconvenient to take care of him at night.

After all, apart from himself and Ying Er, no one else knew that Song Zhiyao was a boy.

Qian Duoduo and Qian Manman wanted to avoid suspicion, they couldn't scrub him, so they could only squeeze themselves into the same bed with him.

In the end, Song Zhiyao lay on Qin Yong's bed. Qin Yong used the child as a meat pad, and felt that his more than ten years of sage books had been read into the stomach of a dog. superior.

The doctor prescribed Guomai medicine, which was taken internally, applied externally, and some medicine for wiping Song Zhiyao's rash from eating peach meat.

Qin Yong was amazed at Song Zhiyao's way of killing one thousand enemies and self-defeating tens of thousands, but when he thought about it later, he felt sad—a child who was only eight or nine years old, worried that his mistress would hate him and had to pretend to be a little girl, I would rather eat a bad stomach and get a red rash all over, than be exposed as a man.

He has never seen anyone who is more sympathetic than Song Zhiyao, nor is he more afraid of death than Song Zhiyao.

After the doctor left, Qin Yong asked Qian Duoduo to fetch a basin of clean water, then dismissed the servants, helped Song Zhiyao clean the wound, applied medicine to the wound, and continued to serve as a meat pad.

Just now Qian Manman fed Song Zhiyao medicine, fearing that he would not be able to sleep hard in his mouth, Qin Yong put a plum in Song Zhiyao's mouth, fearing that he would swallow it indiscriminately while sleeping and it would get stuck, so he counted the time and took it out. Knowing the smell of medicine all over Song Zhiyao, only the breath out of her mouth is sweet.

After a busy day, Qin Yong was also very tired and fell asleep not long after.

Sleeping in the middle of the night, he felt hot in his arms. Qin Yong frowned and opened his eyes, and touched Song Zhiyao's forehead and face. The child was burning again. He twisted the veil and applied it to him. He saw Song Zhiyao's mouth moving, I started to cry, not knowing what dream I had.

Qin Yong couldn't help leaning over and listening, his thoughts suddenly became mixed.

What Song Zhiyao was saying was: "Mother, don't die."

I don't know how old Song Zhiyao lost her mother, how sad it must be to lose her mother at such a young age?

Qin Yong remembered that when he was a child, Mrs. Qin was ill once, she couldn't get up on the bed and even coughed up blood. She was afraid that she would take the anger of the illness on herself, and let the servants stop Ren Qinyong from crying no matter how much she couldn't see her.

Qin Yong was really afraid that Mrs. Qin would leave at that time, but fortunately Mrs. Qin missed her son, and her health improved day by day. Did Song Zhiyao experience this too?

But he failed to keep his mother in the end, leaving him alone in the Song Mansion struggling to survive.

The doctor said in advance that Song Zhiyao had traumatic injuries, and if she couldn't keep them clean in the middle of the night, she would burn again, so she didn't need to take any more medicine, just wipe her body more often.After thinking for a while, Qin Yong didn't unbutton his jacket, but rolled up his sleeves and trouser legs to help him wipe his arms and legs.

Xiao Suanmiao slept extremely unsteadily, talking in sleep all the time, crying until the pillow was wet, saying "Mother, don't die" for a while, and begging Mrs. Song for mercy, "Madam, don't beat me, I didn't steal from big sister." After tossing and tossing for half a night, the child's fever subsided.

Tiredly, Qin Yong put the handkerchief into the basin, reapplied the medicine to Song Zhiyao, and then went back to sleep on the bed.

He put his arms around Song Zhiyao and helped him tuck the corners of the quilt. He missed Mrs. Qin a little bit, and his expression that was used to being cold during the day also loosened a little. Looking at the child in his arms, he felt a sense of being dependent on each other.

The child's fever has subsided at this time, and it is estimated that his body is quite refreshed. He is sleeping soundly, curled up slightly, and burrowed his head into the quilt all the time. Qin Yong was afraid that he would be bored, so he had to drag his creaking nest to prevent him from letting him sleep. He buried his head in the blanket.

……

It was already Chen's time when Song Zhiyao woke up, and when he opened his eyes, he found that the room was very strange, the bed under his body was not a haystack, but a solid bed.There was a smell of medicine in the room, some from his own body, and some from the other side of the table.

Qin Yong was sitting at the table, holding a small bowl of medicine in his hand, swallowing the medicine soup one mouthful at a time, when he heard a sound from the bed, his Adam's apple moved, and he drank the medicine in his hand at a faster speed. The handkerchief pressed the corner of his mouth and said, "Are you awake? Freshen up and eat."

Song Zhiyao followed the prestige, and was confused for a moment, then looked at the other person's face carefully, and found that it was Master Qin who came to the house yesterday, feeling uneasy.

I clearly remembered being punished by my wife to kneel down and be whipped last night, but I didn't know what happened, but I was not in the Song Mansion, and mixed up with Master Qin.

The day before yesterday in the alley, someone caught him standing and peeing and walking a bird. I don't know how many times he saw it. Xiao Xiao didn't know that he was actually a boy.

But he deliberately ate peach meat, now his body was covered with rashes, his face was swollen like a pig's head, he shouldn't recognize him, right?

Seeing Song Zhiyao's appearance, Qin Yong knew what he was thinking, and said, "Eat first, and if you have anything to say, talk about it after breakfast."

Qian Duoduo and Qian Manman have been waiting for a long time, seeing Song Zhiyao woke up and helping him to freshen up, Song Zhiyao has never been served by anyone before, so he was a little nervous and said that I can do it myself, Qian Manman smiled and pushed him onto the stool, and held him Take the basin to clean his face.

After cleansing his face, he was a little embarrassed when combing his hair. Qin Yong usually doesn't like to be waited on by maids. He didn't bring a maid when he went out, but the servants don't know how to comb Song Zhiyao's hair. There is no jewelry for him to wear in the room. He and Qian Manman looked at each other in blank dismay, unable to make a move for a while.

Song Zhiyao saw the embarrassment of the two servants, and she didn't have anything to tie her hair with, so she could only look at Qin Yong hesitantly.

Qin Yong: "...Take out my hairpin and hairband for him to use."

Song Zhiyao picked out two Qin Yong's hair ties, but still tied them in a bun, because the two hair ties were of different colors, and at this moment, one blue and one green were swinging on both sides of her little head, like a rattle.

Qin Yong turned his head and saw Song Zhiyao's appearance, he almost spit out the tea from his mouth - he forgot about the fact that this child is still pretending to be a doll.

Song Zhiyao shook her head, feeling that she looked ridiculous, but there was nothing she could do, so she had to sit obediently at the table and have breakfast.

His stomach hasn't recovered yet, so he can only eat a bowl of porridge with pickles, but he doesn't say anything, and the food is quite delicious.

Seeing that he was eating deliciously, Qin Yong couldn't help teasing him: "Aren't you picky about food?"

Song Zhiyao shook her head: "No choice."

Qin Yong nodded in satisfaction when he heard the words, he is very easy to raise, as long as he is not picky about food, he still has a chance to grow taller in the future.

After breakfast, Qian Manman waited on Song Zhiyao to wipe her mouth and clean her hands. Song Zhiyao was not used to being waited on, so she was embarrassed and at a loss for a while, and finally cleaned up.

Qin Yong asked Qian Duoduo and Qian Manman to buy two children's clothes for Song Zhiyao, and dismissed the servants. Song Zhiyao knew that he was about to explain things to him, so she immediately sat upright.

Qin Yong looked at him as a little grown-up, and he was both amused and pitiful, and said, "Is there anything you want to ask me?"

Song Zhiyao heard him call himself "I" instead of "my official", and felt grateful for his kindness, but she didn't dare to be too pretentious, so she asked cautiously: "Was Master Qin brought me to see the doctor last night?"

"Yes."

Song Zhiyao tilted her head, and asked again: "Then when will I return to the Song Mansion? The master and wife are still waiting to serve..."

"You don't need to go back," Qin Yong said, "I know you are the third lady of Qin's residence, not a sweeping girl."

"Ah? That, that..." Song Zhiyao was stunned: "Then I'm here with your lord, so others will gossip, right?"

Qin Yong shook his head, with an indistinguishable expression on his face: "Only people gossip when you're not here with me. Yesterday, I was eager to save people and offended you. Your father betrothed you to me."

Song Zhiyao opened her mouth when she heard the words, then lowered her head and remained silent.

Qin Yong was afraid that he would feel sad when he heard it, so he hid the matter of looking for the jade pendant, fearing that he would be sad because he sold his son for a piece of the jade pendant. How can you not be sad when you are betrothed to someone else by your father before you even start growing up?

Seeing Song Zhiyao sniffing his nose, Qin Yong was afraid that he was about to start crying. Thinking of the child's tears rolling down like money yesterday, he couldn't stop. Thinking of something to amuse the kids.

Song Zhiyao raised her head and rubbed her nose: "Didn't your lord still want to give the Song family a gift? It's cheaper for him... I have pity on my two pots of garlic seedlings. I haven't eaten a single bite of them since they were planted a few days ago!"

Qin Yong: "..." He sniffed his nose because of two pots of garlic? ?Why is this kid so different all of a sudden, the day before yesterday I saw him show his teeth and claws, yesterday he was well-behaved, and today he cares about garlic sprouts here!

Qin Yong calmed down and made sure that there was nothing wrong with his expression before he said, "It's just two pots of garlic sprouts, you cherish them very much?"

"Of course, I fertilize them every day!"

Fertilizing... Qin Yong didn't dare to think about it. Fortunately, he didn't find the jade pendant yesterday, and even if he found it, he didn't want it anymore.

Qin Yong coughed, and said again: "Also, don't call your lord anymore." There is a child bride in the family who yells at her lord every day, which is really unbearable, as if she purposely found a vixen concubine, too shameful, Qin Yong Just thinking about it makes my skin crawl.

Song Zhiyao was very calm, she thought for a while and said, "Then I can only call you Husband."

Qin Yong was almost struck by lightning, the child didn't have the consciousness of being a boy at all, he yelled "husband" very naturally, with a clear conscience, but Qin Yong couldn't stand being called "husband" by a boy, he just felt His mature and decent expression was about to crack.

Qin Yong had a sullen expression, trying not to look weird, and corrected him: "You should call brother." Song Zhiyao nodded, expressing that he had no objection, Qin Yong was thinking quickly in his mind, when would he let Xiao Suanmiao behave like a boy? Identity and get along with yourself.
