Jiangnan

Chapter 10

There is a house in the southeast corner of the capital that Ren Pengfei bought in his own name. After resettling Qingqing and the others here, he was not in a hurry to find Nie Ying, but sent someone to check the situation at Nie Ying's home.

Perhaps there was nothing special about Nie Ying's family. After a while, the people sent out came back and told Ren Pengfei something he already knew.

Nie Ying's father died young, and her mother was a strong and responsible woman who not only supported the family, but also managed the family's business well. She loved her only son so much that she almost got what she wanted.

Hearing these things at the beginning, Ren Pengfei couldn't help but associate a certain boy in his family who was also spoiled too much with Nie Ying, but only after seeing Nie Ying did he feel that even if his boy worked hard for more than ten or twenty years, he would not I can't cultivate Nie Ying's graceful demeanor.

Hearing this, Ren Pengfei didn't have any idea at first, but when he heard that Nie Ying was having a drink with several young masters in a certain restaurant in Beijing at the moment, his thoughts changed, and after calling them down, he also walked out of the house .

Just a thought, Ren Pengfei suddenly wanted to know what Nie Ying, who was always polite and lazy in front of him, would look like in front of his friends, so he unknowingly walked to the most famous restaurant in the capital forward.

Walking into the restaurant, Xiao Er immediately stepped forward to inquire, Ren Pengfei waved his hand without saying a word, so that the shop Xiao Er, who had seen many things in the world, did not dare to disturb him, stepped back to the side to watch him, and walked upstairs .

Ren Pengfei thought it would take some time to find Nie Ying, but as soon as he went upstairs, he realized that he was wrong. Such an outstanding person attracted attention like the bright moon in the night sky.

It was originally a place for drinking, but now there are many people sitting around. In the private room farther away, the wooden door is half-closed and half-open. Most of the people sitting inside are young and beautiful women. Looking at the clothes, they are not some laughing brothel women. , more like a well-educated young lady who is always accompanied by a girl, who either shakes her round fan lightly or half-hides her jade face, her autumn-like eyes pass through the half-open door and fall on the girl not far away. On a table of people.

The onlookers were almost crowded into the stairwell, some came to peek at the ladies, and more were people in the circle of attention, all of them were in high spirits.It is said to be a restaurant, but it is more like a place for tea parties.

Ren Pengfei walked to a corner without a sound, and with a sweep of his eyes, he easily saw Nie Ying, who was the most eye-catching in the crowd. He was dressed in white at the moment, wearing a jade crown on his head, his eyebrows were painted into his temples, and his gestures were free and unrestrained , without losing the extravagance, as if born in nature, so suitable that people can't take their eyes off.

He was shaking his head and smiling wryly at the moment, and the few shallow creases between his brows because of helplessness made other people want to rush forward to smooth them for him.The people sitting at the same table with him were coaxing him to do something, and Nie Yingzheng showed a helpless face because of this.

After a while, Ren Pengfei realized from the louder and louder booing around him that they wanted Nie Ying to play the piano and sing lyrics.It was also mentioned that many young ladies came here in a hurry just because they knew Mr. Nie was here, just to hear him play a song.

Will he still do this?Ren Pengfei was surprised that someone had picked up a good piano that he knew was expensive at first glance.

Seeing Qin, the booing became louder. Nie Ying smiled wryly and propped her forehead, but finally couldn't persuade the people present, so she got up and sat cross-legged on the reed mat where Yaoqin was placed.Taking advantage of this time, someone had already set up the incense burner, and the people next to him gradually became quiet, all looking forward to it.

When Nie Ying rested the piano on her lap and plucked the strings with her slender fingers to test the sound several times, Ren Pengfei couldn't help but listen attentively.

Next, when the hands are on the strings, the strings move and the sound comes out, one after another, as if plucking on the heartstrings, and the agile sound like echoing in the empty valley lingers in the ears. In the mist, who is singing loudly in the depths of the forest? , Who is humming softly in dreams at midnight.

"The autumn breeze is clear, the autumn moon is bright, the fallen leaves gather and disperse, the jackdaws roost and startle again, lovesickness knows when to meet each other, this night is embarrassing. Enter my lovesickness door, know my lovesickness pain, long lovesickness, long lovesickness, short lovesickness Infinity, if I knew it was such a stumbling block, it would be better if I didn’t know each other at the beginning.”

After singing, the sound stopped, and there was no sound everywhere. It seemed that the shock had not yet recovered the soul that had swayed beyond the nine sky clouds.

The crisp and long-lasting sound of the piano, the low and deep voice, the unexpected fit, and the unexpected pleasant sound, even a rough warrior like Ren Pengfei's mind went blank.

No wonder the people around are so booing, no wonder everyone's eyes were so expectant before, after hearing it once, I'm afraid I really can't forget it, thinking like crazy day and night.

When he looked at Nie Ying again, he put down the piano very lightly, his eyes like ink swept around the crowd, stood up with a smile on his mouth, walked back to his original position and sat down.

When Ren Pengfei went downstairs and walked back slowly, he kept thinking of Nie Ying's eyes that swept over him. It seemed that he stopped because he saw him, and then quickly moved away. This scene remained in his mind for a long time.

When he returned to his residence, he first asked someone about Qingqing's situation. Knowing that she had fallen asleep after drinking the medicine, Ren Pengfei stood there for a while and walked towards the room where his daughter slept.

When she opened the door and entered, she saw the dumb girl arranging Qingqing's clothes in front of the candlelight. When she saw him coming in, she stood up and nodded slightly to him, then went out and closed the door.

Ren Pengfei has a habit, as long as there is nothing to do at night, he will sit beside his daughter's bed and stare at her sleeping face quietly, and the dumb aunt will always leave wisely, not wanting to disturb this short but warm moment.

Sitting by the bed, staring at his daughter's pretty face, it doesn't seem to be calm, in fact, Ren Pengfei will have mixed feelings every time.

This is his own daughter, but it was born in a way that he never expected before. In the past, he thought that he would marry a wife. After a few years, many children would be born, both male and female. They would gather together Playing and playing together made Du'e City, which had been deserted for a long time, bustling with activity.

From the moment he was conceived, he never thought of accepting this child, and was even more afraid of seeing her, but God finally sent Qingqing back to him.At first, he also hesitated and struggled, whether to send his daughter to a remote place to recuperate. He didn't want more people to know her true background, but when the daughter called her father shyly for the first time, he I just felt a sore nose, no matter what, she was indeed his daughter, and she had an inseparable blood relationship with him.

Looking at his daughter's timid eyes, Ren Pengfei's heart softened, and he made him hug his daughter's thin body into his arms regardless of the consequences, and couldn't bear to let go.

Ren Pengfei stretched out his right hand, and carefully drew her eyebrows, her eyes, her outline on Qingqing's small face...

When he saw the pair of big black eyes opened, Ren Pengfei smiled apologetically and withdrew his hand, but his daughter stopped him by grabbing his sleeve.

"Daddy woke you up."

Qingqing shook her head: "Father, you have something on your mind."

Ren Pengfei couldn't help reaching out and touching his face: "Did Qingqing see it?"

Qingqing shook her head again, and smiled: "Qingqing felt it."

Ren Pengfei stretched out his hand to touch her face with a little distress. Qingqing has always been sensible, well-behaved and sensitive, and sometimes she really doesn't look like a six or seven-year-old child.Although the dumb aunt had never said anything to her, he knew that after Qingqing was injured, she had lived a life of ups and downs, which was also the reason why the child's mind grew rapidly and became extremely sensitive.

Gently touching his daughter's little hand, stroking her slender fingers and warm palm, Ren Pengfei felt guilty towards her constantly: "Qingqing, do you blame dad for not looking for you?"

Qingqing smiled softly again, her slightly bent eyes were only black and white, she held her father's big thick hand tightly, and said: "When I was taken out of the valley by my dumb aunt, I saw that other children had parents, it was very strange Qingqing Why is there only a mother but no father? When the dumb aunt told me that I also have a father, Qingqing was so happy that she never thought of blaming you."

Ren Pengfei stroked his daughter's small head with the other hand, combing her long hair over and over again, feeling sore and hot in his heart.

The hand he held with his daughter was gently shaken, he looked at his daughter's face, and only heard her say: "Daddy, where is Qingqing's mother?"

Ren Pengfei stopped his hands and looked at her in shock. The clever daughter quickly guessed what he was thinking, blinked her eyes, and explained: "Qingqing is not stupid, the age difference between other people's parents is not that big, but Madam But she is as old as an old woman, and she is not compatible with her father at all. So Qingqing thinks that the mother is not the mother, but the one who gave birth to Qingqing is the mother."

Ren Pengfei stared blankly at his daughter's small face, unable to find his tongue to speak for a long time, constantly thinking about what he was doing when he was six or seven years old, or whether his daughter was smarter and more sensitive?

"father?"

Seeing him like this, Qingqing tugged at his sleeves a little uneasy.

When Ren Pengfei saw it, he quickly comforted her, and after a while, he said in a hoarse voice, "Does Qingqing want to see mother?"

Qingqing looked up at his expression carefully for a while, buried her face in his arms, and said softly: "Daddy, did Qingqing say something that made you sad?"

Ren Pengfei stopped talking and just held the child tightly in his arms.Qingqing stretched out her small hand, and carefully held his wrist, because the palm was too small, it looked like it was just touching it.

"Daddy, I'm sorry, Qingqing won't talk nonsense in the future."

"No, Qingqing doesn't need to apologize, you're not wrong, it's because Dad didn't think about how to tell you... You give Dad time, and one day, Dad will definitely tell you all the truth, okay?"

The little head buried in his chest nodded lightly.

That night, Ren Pengfei stayed with Qingqing until she couldn't hold on to sleep, and then sat by his daughter's bed and watched her more and more beautiful face until midnight before leaving.

That night Ren Pengfei locked himself in the study room, opened the door the next morning and sent someone to Du'e City to send a family letter to report his safety, and then turned around and was about to walk to Qingqing's residence when a girl who took care of Qingqing was full of hair. Sweating profusely, he ran up to him, so anxious that he even forgot the etiquette, and came up and said: "Master, Miss is coughing up blood!"

When Ren Pengfei rushed over, Qingqing's skirt was already stained red with blood, and she was still coughing. The dumb aunt found a white cotton cloth and pressed it under her lips, but after a while, the cotton cloth was also dyed with shocking blood. red.

Ren Pengfei was so anxious that he grabbed the collar of the servant beside him, and scolded sharply: "The medicine, the lady's medicine, why don't you bring it!"

The servants around were trembling with fright, especially those caught by him, whose feet were shaking so much that they were about to fall apart.

Seeing that they all hung their heads and stood still, Ren Pengfei was so angry that his head was smoking, and he was about to find someone to trouble him. There was already a servant girl who saw that something was wrong, so she boldly said: "Master, Miss has had a drink. Medicine."

What?Ren Pengfei turned around to look in astonishment, and sure enough, he saw an empty bowl beside the bed. When she looked at the dumb aunt again, she shook her head helplessly at him.

The current medicine has no effect on Qingqing at all.

Dumb aunt has been with the ghost mother-in-law for so long, so she has learned a little from her, not to mention that no one understands Qingqing's condition better than her who takes care of Qingqing day and night.Ren Pengfei's body shook when he read what she wanted to express from her eyes.

Standing in the room not knowing what to think, Ren Pengfei hastily explained to the dumb aunt that no matter what, she must find a way to relieve Qingqing's injury for a while, and then left without looking back.

When she was unable to vomit any more, Qingqing fell exhausted into the arms of Mute Aunt, and said weakly: "Aunt Mute... Qingqing made Daddy worry about Qingqing..."

Aunt Dumb hugged the poor child distressedly.

Ren Pengfei rushed to the gate of Nie Ying's house without stopping, and pointed out that he was looking for Nie Ying himself. He did not report his real identity, but only said that he was an old acquaintance of Mr. Nie.

Ren Pengfei didn't expect to come to him so soon. He originally thought that it would take at least two or three days before he came over after he had arranged everything and made a plan.But he can wait, but Qingqing can't.

The servants quickly brought Ren Pengfei to a reception hall and asked him to sit for a while, the housekeeper would go to inform him, and after the servants left, a maid served hot tea.Ren Pengfei was anxious and didn't have the slightest intention to drink tea. He couldn't sit still in the chair at all, so he stood up and walked around, while dispelling some worries in his heart, while thinking about how to deal with it next.

Maybe it was because he came too early and the master hadn't woken up yet. Ren Pengfei felt that he had waited too long. Watching the tea gradually cool down and the sunlight outside the house gradually glaring, the knuckles of his clenched fists were slightly white.

Ren Pengfei has always been rational, even if he is anxious like crazy, he knows that this is not his mansion after all, what's more, he has something to ask for in this trip, so he can't be presumptuous here, otherwise he can't help but call his servants to remind him.

Just as Ren Pengfei turned around in the hall until a big hole was stepped on the ground, Mrs. Hua was leisurely washing and combing her hair and wearing jewelry in her room.

The servant did not directly tell Nie Ying about the visitor, but first informed Mrs. Hua.Mrs. Hua, who had just gotten up and changed her clothes, first asked who was the visitor, and the servant replied, "The visitor didn't mention his name, only that he was an old acquaintance of the young master."

"Don't dare to name him, he must not be an important person, let's just leave this person alone."

It was just such a sentence that made Ren Pengfei wait from early morning until near Sishi, when Mrs. Hua took a bite of the exquisite snack, and said to the maid beside him: "This snack is good, I will also send it to the young master. By the way, is the young master awake?"

Soon someone came over and said: "Ma'am, the young master drank a lot of wine last night, maybe he was very drunk and hasn't woken up yet."

"Then don't disturb him and let him sleep."

The butler hurried up, bent over and said respectfully: "Ma'am, that person is still waiting in the hall, he doesn't look very well."

Mrs. Hua didn't seem to hear it, she put a piece of pastry into her mouth, chewed it elegantly and silently, after eating it as much as she wanted, she drank tea and rinsed her mouth, looked at the butler, and said calmly: "Let him wait."

When Nie Ying woke up and finished washing, it was already after lunch. Mrs. Hua was afraid that he would be hungry, so she asked her servant girl to bring the ginseng and chicken soup she stewed by herself to her son's room, and watched him drink it down.

After drinking, Nie Ying smiled at her mother, "Mom, your cooking skills are getting better and better."

Mrs. Hua nodded with a smile on the tip of his tall nose: "Your mouth is getting better at talking."

Nie Ying rubbed her nose and smiled embarrassingly.

"Go and sit down, mother will comb your hair."

Nie Ying sat down on a low stool, and Mrs. Ren Hua combed his hair carefully, tied it up, and tied Dai Wen with a jade-encrusted hair crown.Mrs. Hua moved in front of him, looking at her handsome son with satisfaction.

At first, he wanted to talk to his son, but the butler came again wiping his sweat, and was glared at by Mrs. Hua displeased.In fact, they don't know how their wife's temper is. If they offend her, the skin will be peeled off. It's just that the guest waiting in the hall really doesn't seem like someone to mess with.

He didn't say anything, just a black face and cold eyes can make people's feet tremble. He asked his servants to guard in the hall, and the servants almost cried and begged him to solve it. Shocked by that man's frosty expression, he scrambled to find his master.

Before Mrs. Hua could speak, Nie Ying noticed the nervous old housekeeper, and asked suspiciously, "Uncle Chen, what's wrong with you?"

The housekeeper looked at Mrs. Hua tremblingly, saw that she was troubled but didn't say anything, so he tremblingly said: "Hui, Hui, young master, someone is looking for you."

"Oh, who is it?"

"I didn't say it, I just said it was your old acquaintance."

Nie Ying raised her eyebrows. The word old knowledge made him puzzled. He had not been in the capital for a long time, and there was no one who could really afford the word old knowledge. At this moment, Nie Ying suddenly remembered someone, and Nie Ying stood up suddenly.

"son?"

Nie Ying looked at her mother's worried face and smiled, "It's okay. Mother, I'll go and have a look." After finishing speaking, she turned and left.

While Ren Pengfei was waiting to see that nothing was pleasing to his eyes, and wished he could force his way in, Nie Ying finally arrived late, and when she saw him standing in the hall, she was extremely surprised: "It's you?"

At this time, Ren Pengfei could no longer pull out a polite smirk, and said bluntly: "Mr. Nie..." You are a noble man with many things to do, and meeting the Jade Emperor is more troublesome than meeting the Jade Emperor.

Ren Pengfei was somewhat rational and didn't say the latter sentence. Otherwise, even if he didn't tear himself apart on the spot, at least the following conversation would not be pleasant.

Nie Ying smiled and walked into the hall.Although Ren Pengfei didn't say anything, it didn't mean he couldn't guess. You could tell what he was thinking just by looking at his expression.When he came, he had already heard from the housekeeper that Ren Pengfei had come here to wait for him early in the morning. As for why he hadn't informed him, his mother must have stopped him.

"I don't know when the hero came to the capital?" When Nie Ying walked to a place, she saw the teacup on the coffee table, reached out to touch it, and said loudly, "Come here, change the hot tea for the guests." Then she stood up On a chair, he signaled to Ren Pengfei, "Please sit down, hero. I don't know why the hero came to find me?"

Ren Pengfei was about to speak, when another maid came in to exchange tea, another servant came in to serve snacks, and the butler was waiting in the corner, his eyebrows twitched.

"Young Master Nie, can you change to a quiet place?"

Nie Ying stared at Ren Pengfei for a while, then nodded: "Yes."

In a relatively remote courtyard in the mansion, let the servants go away, push the door of the study to go in and close it again, cigarettes are suffocating, no idlers come in and out, it is indeed much quieter.

Nie Ying sat down first, and without turning a corner, she opened her mouth and said, "If you have something to say, the hero, we are "old acquaintances" no matter what you say, if you need Nie's help, just ask."

Nie Ying spoke sincerely, but seeing the smile on his face, Ren Pengfei always felt that he deserved a beating no matter how he looked at it.

He was straightforward, and Ren Pengfei didn't hesitate, took a deep breath and said, "What medicine did you give me last time?"

"A good medicine that is commonly used at home to treat diseases and relieve pain."

"Really?" Ren Pengfei stared into his eyes.

Nie Ying smiled, and tapped her fingers on the table: "If the hero doesn't believe it, he can either eat it or throw it away." After stopping, he smiled slightly, "Or, have you already let the patient eat it?" Looking at Ren Pengfei With a serious face, he said again, "And the patient has any adverse reactions after taking it?"

Hearing what he said, Ren Pengfei's eyes froze, and the cold light cast on Nie Ying: "You admit it?"

"Admit what?" Nie Ying looked puzzled.

"There's something wrong with your medicine."

"My medicine is fine, why should Nie admit it? I just asked this to assure you that the reason why the patient has an accident is where the problem lies." Nie Ying paused slightly, "I will give you the medicine There will be absolutely no problem, if the hero doesn't believe it, Nie can take out these medicines again, how about eating them all in front of you?"

Ren Pengfei snorted coldly, "The medicine you took out must be the one you gave me?"

Nie Ying waved her hands helplessly and innocently, "Then how do you believe it?"

Ren Pengfei didn't say anything for a long time, but just stared at him intently, making Nie Ying wonder if there was something strange growing on her face.

Ren Pengfei took a step back and said silently: "I don't believe it, no matter what, I don't believe it, because you hate me and you want me to die."

Nie Ying stopped laughing and looked straight at him with dark eyes.

"You are the one at the bottom of the valley, you are Xiao Jiang, right." Ren Pengfei smiled wryly.

Nie Ying supported the edge of the table and stood up slowly and heavily: "When did you see it?"

Ren Pengfei closed his eyes, remembering the look he had with him in the restaurant yesterday, those clear and beautiful eyes with a smile, he still can't forget them, but one pair is completely free of impurities, and the other pair vaguely overlaps with a deep color , he was a little confused.

When I got home and looked at my daughter's face carefully, I gradually came to my senses, because my daughter looked more and more like him.

Then everything that happened recently has an answer.When he found out about the situation at Nie Ying's home, why didn't he become suspicious? It was because not many people knew about Mrs. Hua's true background. They only knew that she was young and widowed. Only then did he take his only son Nie Ying with him.Some people also said that Mrs. Hua's beauty has always been loved by Prince Jing, which is also the main reason why she is able to do such a big business in the capital as a girl.

Ren Pengfei slowly opened his eyes, looked at the expressionless person, and said indifferently, "Nie Ying, if you have anything to do, just come to me, but please——don't hurt my daughter."

Nie Ying sat back in her original position, tapped her fingers on the table, and smiled slightly: "Oh, your daughter..."

Ren Pengfei stretched out his hand towards him: "Nie Ying, give me the antidote, and I will do as you please."

As soon as the finger on the table stopped, Nie Ying shook her head and let out a long sigh: "Oh, I know you won't believe what I say at this time, but Ren Pengfei, will you let your daughter take the medicine before you are sure whether it is safe?"

Ren Pengfei was speechless.That's right, if he hadn't accidentally discovered Nie Ying's true identity, he would never have suspected that there was something wrong with that bottle of medicine. After all, he had taken it and had the doctor investigate it.But after knowing the truth, the more she felt that everything was premeditated, and that all Nie Ying wanted was his pain.

"You don't need to ask me what antidote I want, don't say I don't have it, even if I really found a bottle of medicine for you, would you still dare to use it?"

I couldn't help but take a closer look at him again. The Nie Ying at this time is very different from when he was at the bottom of the valley. If it weren't for the lingering traces on his body that made him suspicious, and the daughter who looked somewhat similar to him was in front of him. , he must have never expected that he was the one at the bottom of the valley.

However, Nie Ying, who was sitting in front of him, no longer had the stupidity and ignorance she had when she was in the valley, nor did she have the clear eyes, she no longer had to learn to speak clumsily, and she no longer had to wholeheartedly find someone for him. Come for the good food...

Ren Pengfei looked away, turned and left without saying a word.

Nie Ying didn't move, only her eyes stayed on his lonely back from the beginning to the end, until it disappeared completely in front of her eyes.

Originally, Nie Ying thought that there was a cure for her daughter's life, but she never thought that it would be like this. She tried her best but failed. How long can it last.

Returning home exhausted, I went to see my daughter first. I don’t know what method the dumb aunt used. The daughter has already fallen asleep, but her face is pale, and her brows are still furrowed in her sleep. On the contrary, he is so cute that it makes people feel distressed.

Ren Pengfei sat on the side of the bed with a heavy heart and caressed his daughter's little face. He accidentally found a medical book that his daughter had pressed under the pillow. It was said that it was taught to her by the ghost mother-in-law. The prescriptions mentioned are a bit esoteric and unimaginable. I can't help but wonder if my daughter can understand it at such a young age?

After flipping through a few pages, he found a few sheets of paper stained with blood. Ren Pengfei flicked the pages of the book and stroked the blood that had already dried up.His daughter is not only sensible, but also very strong. Although she is seriously ill, she will read medical books to learn medicine as soon as she wakes up. What she once said to him was not unintentional. She really did it and persisted very hard. Even if the injury is so severe that he coughs up blood, he still persists...

Ren Pengfei's eyes were flushed, and he never dared to lower his head, fearing that the tears would not be able to bear the heavy pressure on his chest, dripping out of his eyes. He hadn't cried for a long time, but at this moment it was not because of sadness, but helplessness and touch, pain and happiness.

He has a wonderful daughter, he doesn't want her to suffer anymore, he wants her to be healthy and do whatever she wants.

Sensing that someone was approaching, Ren Pengfei hurriedly pressed the book back, adjusted his expression before turning around. It turned out that the person who approached was the dumb girl who had just gone out.

Ren Pengfei looked at Dumb Aunt's questioning eyes, smiled lightly, and said, "I went to find Nie Ying, there is no medicine to cure Qingqing."

The dumb girl's complexion darkened, she bowed her head and walked away silently.

On this day, Ren Pengfei didn't go anywhere, just stayed by his daughter's bedside, taking care of her.

Qingqing's injury cannot be delayed any longer, but it is impossible to travel thousands of miles to the capital and then return to Du'e city immediately, Qingqing's physical condition can no longer bear the fatigue of traveling and traveling.Ren Pengfei could only send someone to invite the doctors in the city. Famous doctors from all over the world gathered in the capital. At this time, it would not be a bad thing to change direction and want Qingqing to stay in the capital.

After many twists and turns, although the power of Du'e City is not as good as before, it is not impossible to pay for the highly skilled doctor. What's more, Ren Pengfei still has a lot of private savings. Enough for him to enjoy a few lifetimes.

"Be prepared" is the heart formula of every shrewd businessman, and Ren Pengfei is no exception. Even if people outside think that Du'er City will be fine for hundreds of years, Ren Pengfei has secretly left a lot of options for himself and his family.

But the problem before Ren Pengfei at this moment cannot be solved with money.Doctors in the capital shook their heads when they heard where they were going to see a doctor, and they would not pay any more money.

In the land of nobles and nobles at the foot of the emperor, perhaps even a humble trafficker or pawn may be a relative of the emperor, or at least a kinship relationship. Because of this, everyone in the capital is as slippery as a master, nodding and bowing to everyone, I am deeply afraid that if I am not careful, I will offend others, and going to prison is a small matter to destroy the nine clans.

To be able to buy such a big house in the capital city to live in, and to have servants to serve him, he must be of the same status. The only possibility is that no one is willing to come because the doctors in the capital city are so ignorant of flattery. A person whose status was almost as high as the sky let them all go.

The emperor's old son was mostly concerned with state affairs, but he had no time to take care of such trivial matters. Ren Pengfei didn't think much about it. Thinking about the relationship between Prince Jing and Mrs. Hua, and his involvement with Nie Ying, his head got big.

He knew that Nie Ying would not just let him go, but he never thought that Nie Ying would take his anger out on an innocent child. In his heart, he always thought that a person who once had such clear eyes would not do such a ruthless act. thing.

The current situation is very unfavorable to him. Even if Du'e City is still as famous as before, he would not dare to really confront the royal relatives, let alone the current inferior situation.

Dumb aunt's ability is limited, before Qingqing's injury can't be recovered, Ren Pengfei knows that this matter must be solved, and the only person who can solve this problem at this moment is Nie Ying.

Mrs. Hua walked into the house, her son was still in the same posture that the man had left before she walked up to hug him and let him snuggle into her arms.

Seeing his son's appearance, he knew who was coming without guessing.She spent more than a year trying to turn a child who knew nothing into the handsome man he is today, and that man can make all her efforts in vain in less than half an hour.

Outsiders all see Mrs. Hua as a beautiful woman with a wealth of wealth, but no one knows the pain in her heart.

She didn't want to talk about the foolishness of her youth, she finally hoped to bring her son back, but saw that he had no ambition to live, it tore her heart apart more than anything else.At this moment, she doesn't ask for anything, if she spends all her wealth and lives in exchange for her son's life without illness and worry, she is willing to pay.

Nie Ying leaned into her mother's warm arms and closed her eyes forcefully: "Mom, I'm so tired..."

Mrs. Hua hugged him tightly with red eyes: "Tell mother, whatever you want, mother will do it for you, tell mother—"

Nie Ying shook her head exhaustedly: "I don't think about anything now... I'm just being self-indulgent. He never has any feelings for me, so let's talk about being ruthless. So, even if I become stronger and better and can No matter what, he can still leave without looking back again and again.”

Holding back the tears, Mrs. Hua kissed the top of his hair and stroked his face with her fingers: "Mother knows that you are suffering, don't worry, mother will let him come back, let him come back on his own initiative, and never leave again..."

Ren Pengfei came to look for Nie Ying, but was brought to Mrs. Hua.

Mrs. Hua sat in front of the round table with no makeup on, with a sewing box in front of her, holding a moon-white silk dress, hanging her head, and carefully sewed the dress.Looking at it now, she is not a heroine in a shopping mall, but an ordinary and dignified mother.

"City Lord Ren, I know you are a father." Mrs. Hua focused on walking the needle without raising her head, "I think you can understand the mind of a mother. I didn't mean to hurt your daughter, I just I want you to experience how hard it is when your child is seriously injured and unconscious. You can be cruel to see my son get hurt, and I will also be cruel to let you go through this once. It’s not good, isn’t it... "

Mrs. Hua's voice changed slightly, and Ren Pengfei's vigilance when he came was gradually replaced by guilt. Thinking of his daughter's pain when he was seriously injured, he couldn't restrain the pain in his heart. He lowered his hands and whispered: "I'm sorry..."

A sharp needle passed through the silk, took out the thread, and tied it down again, "I did everything that happened in Duer City. You don't have to blame my son. Feel free to attack me if you have any grievances. I am a rough-skinned old lady." Thick flesh can stay with you to the end, but Xiaoying can't, he can't bear even the slightest bit of damage..."

"Mrs. Hua..." Ren Pengfei wondered if Nie Ying had told her something, slightly startled.

Mrs. Hua's eyes were still only on the smooth silk surface in front of her, and she quickly sewed a row of tight and neat stitches, "I don't know exactly what happened to you and my son before, but since Xiaoying has a heart I can't let you go, as a mother who owes him a lot, all I can do is to fulfill his wishes one by one."

Tie the knot with your hands lightly, lightly open your vermilion lips to bite off the cotton thread, pull out the short thread in the pinhole, take out the white ball of thread, take the thread end and thread the needle, pull the cotton thread through the pinhole to a suitable length, arrange the material, and continue to sew clothes.

"City Lord Ren, you come to live with me and be Xiaoying's guard, guarding his side day and night, and never leave without permission. If you are worried about your daughter, you can also bring her here, and I can ask the best doctor to use it The best medicine is for her to see a doctor and heal her wounds.”

This is not an inquiry, but an affirmation. There is no choice. If Ren Pengfei refuses to agree, not only will his daughter not be treated by a doctor, but also they will not be able to buy the medicine they need.

It is no exaggeration to say that it is a humiliation for a city lord who has always ordered the world to be a servant, so Ren Pengfei is hesitating, hesitating...

Time passed by, Mrs. Hua's clothes were sewn, and she held them up and spread them out for a closer look. Then she put down the moon-white clothes, and picked up the scissors to cut off the thread she just found.

"City Master Ren, you are not a good father."

Ren Pengfei raised his head to look at her inexplicably, with a faint smile on the corner of her mouth, so kind and warm, "If I were you, I would definitely agree without hesitation for the sake of the child."

The tone of accusing him secretly was like pouring cold water from head to heart, Ren Pengfei was speechless.Thinking too much, too easy to care about gains and losses, and too concerned about fame and fortune, this was once considered his strength, but it is also his fatal shortcoming.

Qingqing is his daughter, between her and his self-esteem and reputation, he is actually hesitating——

The room was eerily quiet, and when she finally confirmed that the clothes she had just sewn were correct, Mrs. Hua, who had never glanced at Ren Pengfei from the beginning to the end, smiled with satisfaction.
