Loyal heart travels a long way

Song Zhiyao lost her mother since she was a child. The master of the family does not love his wife, and only her soft-spoken mother Sun protects her. There are not many places to help her.

He is very different from the young master who grew up in a honey pot, and his ability to accept these things even exceeds Qin Yong's expectations.

Qin Yong didn't expect that he was a family with a child, but he still had a strong heart, and he loved and loved this child a little more in his heart.

"How much do you remember about last night?" Qin Yong asked.

Song Zhiyao shook her head, not quite used to the hairbands dangling from both sides of her head, she pinned the hairbands to her ears with her hands and said, "I don't remember much, I just remember washing the dishes in the kitchen last night. I was carried out by my wife and received a cane, so I don’t know about the rest.”

While talking in this room, his ears were too small, the hair band couldn't get stuck and slipped down again, dangling on both sides, Song Zhiyao didn't bother to care about it, and let the two hairpins dangle carelessly there.

Qin Yong beckoned to him, Song Zhiyao didn't know what he was going to do, but still obediently approached him.

Qin Yong picked him up and let him sit on his lap, then untied his buns, helped him comb his hair and said, "Because I ignored Miss Song yesterday and made her unable to come down, so Did she look for you, and she vented her anger on you with Mrs. Song."

While speaking, Qin Yong combed Song Zhiyao's hair with horns a few times, made it into a strand, combed it high into a ponytail and swayed on the back of his head, and then wrapped it around a few more times with a hair tie, so as not to make the falling part feel uncomfortable on the neck: "That's all I know. So you were beaten last night because of me. Don't you hate me?"

Song Zhiyao touched the back of her head, shook her head to express her satisfaction with this hairstyle, then raised her head to meet Qin Yong's eyes, and said seriously: "I don't hate it. Although A Yao is young, she also knows that this matter is about you and I will." If ten people want to marry their daughter to elder brother, elder brother can't marry ten concubine, right? Besides, if there is no elder brother to rescue me, I will still be beaten today, tomorrow, and in the future."

Song Zhiyao blushed a little, and said hesitantly: "My brother is not tempted by the eldest lady, but he promised the master to give, give, give me. If my brother didn't want to save my life, he could leave Ayao to fend for himself... ...And my brother is so kind to A Yao, A Yao should repay her kindness, how can I hate my brother?"

Qin Yong thought it was funny, and felt sorry for him being so sensible. He flicked Song Zhiyao's forehead and said, "You don't know much, but you know a lot."

Song Zhiyao covered her forehead, and said a little embarrassedly: "Brother, I finished combing my hair, put Ayao down."

Qin Yong put Song Zhiyao down as he said, rolled up his sleeves to check the wound on his arm, and asked, "Does the back hurt?"

Song Zhiyao didn't feel the pain - he was used to being beaten, he could endure the pain, and indeed the pain wasn't too severe, she shook her head and said, "It doesn't hurt."

Qin Yong nodded, and saw Song Zhiyao pulling a pair of big shoes on his feet, and asked him to lean back on it.

Song Zhiyao was full of doubts, but also embarrassed to ask people like crackling beans in a bamboo tube, so she had to go back to lean on the bed obediently.

Qin Yong went to his side and put a soft pillow under his waist, and put the quilt on his stomach, then sat at his feet and continued: "There is something that you have to decide for yourself. Actually, I recognized it yesterday during the day. You're here, and I've heard what Mama Sun said, you pretended to be a girl because you were afraid of being poisoned by Mrs. Song?"

Song Zhiyao paused, and said dryly, "Brother knows that I'm not a little girl anymore..."

He thought of himself pointing at someone's nose and talking nonsense, and even throwing stones at them. Unexpectedly, Qin Yong not only didn't get annoyed, but rescued himself from the dire straits, and now he felt embarrassed.And just now I called Qin Yong's husband, I was almost ashamed to death.

"Otherwise?" Seeing Song Zhiyao blushing, Qin Yong was inexplicably embarrassed, coughed and said, "You're only so old, I really can't accept you as a child bride."

As soon as the words "children's daughter-in-law" came out, both of them felt embarrassed.

Song Zhiyao was young, and every day in the Song Mansion, she only thought about how to avoid being beaten and how to have enough food and clothing. No one ever teased him about these things, so she was very thin-skinned; while Qin Yong always felt married because of Qin Zhengqi's stupid things. The child bride-in-law seemed to have imitated her father's dirty deeds, and felt embarrassed.

In the end, it was Qin Yong who changed the topic - how old is he? We can't let a child come to the rescue.

After chatting for a while, he already guessed about Song Zhiyao's life experience, and with the clues found by Ying Er, it is even clearer now:

After Mrs. Song married into the Song Mansion, she had a bad relationship with Mrs. Song. After giving birth to two daughters, Mrs. Song took a concubine for Song Xiu, who was Song Zhiyao's mother—Aunt Gu.

At that time, the Song Mansion was in ruins due to the poor management of Mrs. Song and Song Xiu. Mrs. Song moved her private treasury to buy a charming little lady for Song Xiu, not to mention that Aunt Gu had one within a few days of entering the mansion. Being pregnant, Mrs. Song was upset and ran into the old lady's room to make a scene.

Mrs. Song was also a pungent character when she was young. When she quarreled with her daughter-in-law, she became ill for a while and went away within a few days.

However, Mrs. Song did not have her mother-in-law to make things difficult, so she became more and more strict with the concubine. Later, Aunt Gu was in poor health and gave birth two months early. Mrs. Song's hotness will definitely not let her son grow up smoothly.

Aunt Gu was afraid that Mrs. Song would kill her, so she lied that she had given birth to a baby girl, and even took care of her baby herself, and even Sun's mother didn't intervene in daily life.

Mama Sun is an old man who followed Mrs. Song, because the death of the old lady has always been a grudge to Madam Song. Later, she was fined to live in a woodshed because she bumped into Madam Song. Aunt Gu was generous and kind, and rescued Mama Sun several times. As the days went by, Mama Sun took more care of the mother and child in the concubine.

Aunt Gu gave birth to Song Zhiyao prematurely, and because she was exhausted during confinement and fell ill, she couldn't survive the winter before and left, leaving Song Zhiyao to live with her mother Sun

Qin Yong knew that Song Zhiyao lost his mother, but he didn't expect it to be the year before last. This child has learned how to live under the hands of his wife in just over a year, which makes people admire and feel distressed.

"Brother, don't think so much! My mother is going to enjoy the blessings in heaven." Song Zhiyao can see it, Aunt Gu has to beware of his wife and protect herself in the Song family, living with a disease is worse than dying.Although she was very reluctant to part with her mother, perhaps it would be a relief for Aunt Gu to leave like this.

Qin Yong was silent for a moment, leaned forward and patted Song Zhiyao's head: "Do you want to take revenge on Mrs. Song?"

Song Zhiyao turned around and shook her head, with a confused expression: "I don't know, I really hate her, but if I become a bad person for revenge, will mother be unhappy in heaven?"

Qin Yong stared at Song Zhiyao's forehead in a daze. He wanted to comfort Xiao Suanmiao, but he didn't know how to speak, so he kept silent.Song Zhiyao came back to her senses first, and said: "Let's take a step and see. I won't take the initiative to harm her, but if she is in trouble, I won't help her either."

Qin Yong nodded: "Although I know you are a man, the Song family doesn't know. I... I am not as good as you think, and my family is also a bad debt. I have to stay in Xiapi for a long time and cannot return. Jing. If you stay with me, you can only dress up as a woman, and try to recover your identity when you return to Beijing; if you don’t want to dress up as a little girl again, I will send you back to the Song family and leave some capable servants for you to take care of you For a few years. You are the only boy in the Song family. It doesn’t matter whether you are a concubine or a concubine. The Song family will be yours from now on. Yaoer, you choose your own path. Do you want me to help you return to the Song family as the young master? Do you want to follow me and go back to the dragon pool and tiger den in the capital?"

After finishing speaking, Qin Yong watched Song Zhiyao remain silent and let him think for himself.

In fact, he had some hopes in his heart, hoping that Song Zhiyao would choose to follow him, and he didn't know why the child who had only met twice could be so attracted to each other, but now he really planned for him.

Although he hoped that Song Zhiyao would follow him, he also thought that Princess Jingming would not be found in a short while, and he might have to spend many years here in Xiapi, otherwise Qin Zhengqi would not have let him do it. Fame, to put it bluntly, is the right to treat oneself as exiled.

If Song Xiu knew that his youngest daughter was actually his youngest son, he would definitely take her back, so if Song Zhiyao wanted to follow him, at least he would be a little girl in Xiapi.

But he can recover the boy's body and return to the Song family. Since he has rescued the child, he will never watch Mrs. Song harm him, and will definitely help him seize the Song family's property. Comparing the two sides, Song Zhiyao actually returned to the Song mansion It will be easier.

Qin Yong looked at Song Zhiyao with a calm face, but in fact his heart was overwhelmed. He hoped that Song Zhiyao would be smarter and choose a better one, but he was also afraid that if he really wanted to return to the Song Mansion, he would be left alone.

Song Zhiyao's eyes became hot, and Qin Yong happened to call out his nickname, which was usually only called by Aunt Gu, and Qin Yong's "Yao'er" made his heart warm up.

He said in a hoarse voice: "Ayao has lost her mother. In the past, only Mother Sun treated Ayao well. Now that she finally got her elder brother, why should she go back to the Song Mansion? I don't want the house or property of the Song Mansion... "After finishing speaking, I cleared my throat, and said harshly again: "You and I have been dolls for nine years, and I'm not afraid to pretend to be dead!"

Qin Yong was stunned, he didn't expect his temper to be so strong, pinched his face and asked again: "Have you thought about it? I don't know how many years it will take before I can wear men's clothing."

Song Zhiyao grabbed Qin Yong's sleeve: "It's all thought up, I will go wherever my brother goes, it doesn't matter if I pretend to be a little girl all my life, my brother can't drive me away!"

Except for Aunt Gu and Mama Sun, no one has ever been kind to Song Zhiyao. For the first time, someone cared about whether his wound hurts or whether his hair is tied up comfortably. Song Zhiyao wants to grow up quickly, and he can also help Qin Yong and repay him.

Qin Yong smiled and shook his head: "It's not good to pretend to be a lifetime. When you grow up, you still pretend to be a little girl. How can I find you a wife?"

Song Zhiyao shook her head and didn't speak, but what she was thinking about was looking for a daughter-in-law, her own life was ups and downs, why bother to drag another girl to accompany her, she might as well learn her skills, so that she can protect Qin Yong when she returns to Beijing, so that she can be called Qin Yong It's a pity not to pay by mistake.
