Shuang Xiaohan and Meizi

"Brother-in-law, how have you been all these years?" Hearing the sound of footsteps going away outside, Qin Ling walked to the bedside and asked, staring resentfully at the man who didn't even want to look at her.

"I thought I made it very clear back then." Qi Diaoming's voice came faintly.

"But brother-in-law, hasn't my sister passed away? Can't I stay by your side now?"

When she heard the news of her sister's death in the south, she rushed here overnight. She thought that the man she had been infatuated with for many years could finally notice her.But unexpectedly, he was still so indifferent. It seemed that since her sister married in, she had never seen this man smile. The cold and charming smile that fascinated her in the rain back then seemed to be just one of her own. It's like this kind of fantasy, which has never appeared before.

"This has nothing to do with Qin Lian's death, and my decision will not change for any reason." Qi Diaoming opened his eyes, a pair of obsidian-like dark eyes met Qin Ling's expectant gaze straightly, his tone firm.

Qi Diaoming's stubborn incomprehension made Qin Ling extremely annoyed, but she knew better that to get this good opportunity she had been looking forward to for many years, she had to be patient, and a slowing down strategy was what she needed most now.

"Brother-in-law, I can't say anything if you persist like this. But you also know that I just came back from the south, and I haven't stepped into my husband's house since Yaoyao's father died. I want to leave in the capital for a few days. Let's go and see my former friends and family members, so I want to stay with you while I'm in the capital, okay? After a few days, my brother-in-law's illness is better, and I'll go back to the south with the medicine." Sad With a mournful tone and a choked voice, Qin Ling knew too well that Qi Diaoming couldn't be too cruel to her sister after her death. As long as he softened his heart a little bit, he could stay here first, and at other times, he could talk about it in the future. .

Qi Diaoming's dark eyes looked at her condensedly. In fact, he was very clear about Qin Ling's personality. Although she was born of the same mother, she was different from Qin Lian who had been educated in etiquette since she was a child.Although it doesn't mean that she is ignorant and ignorant of etiquette, it's just that she has always been a person who will not give up until she achieves her goal, and there is also a gloomy and cold air in her personality. This woman is too scheming, which is what he hates the most. Not long after Qin Lian married him, when she boldly expressed her admiration to herself, who had just become her brother-in-law, he unceremoniously refused.This woman is the type that must not be messed with, otherwise she will get into trouble.

"Since you don't want to go back to your husband's house and are just visiting the capital for a few days, then you can stay here now. Four days later, the caravan under the property at home will go to the south to buy a batch of high-quality silk. This time it is Shao Xiang led the team, just let them escort you and Yaoyao back to the south, so I won’t worry about it.” For the sake of Qin Lian and the other children, he couldn’t completely refuse, so he only gave her four days. It is neither long nor short, enough for her to visit all relatives and friends, but at the same time, there is no chance to cause unnecessary troubles.

"Thank you, brother-in-law." Qin Ling bowed her head to thank her, her resentful eyes cast on Qi Diaoming, who was lying on her back, her eyes were gloomy and cold.

It was another sunny day in the autumn morning. A handsome man in a lake-colored Confucian shirt welcomed the Lacquer Mansion located in the bustling street of Longkang Imperial City.

"Excuse me..." the door attendant looked at the man with a gentle smile on his face and asked.

"In Xiashui Wuya, I came here at the invitation of the fourth young master, please pass it on." The man bowed his hands politely.

"Oh, you are the divine doctor of water, please wait a moment, I will pass on the information right away." It seemed that the door attendant had already received the order, and he knew the person's origin by hearing the name.

After a while, Mo Wen, the lacquer carving, came out with the housekeeper Gu Ni and several servants.

"Mr. Shui, I'm sorry. The fourth brother said in his letter that you will arrive in a few days, but I didn't expect you to arrive so soon."

"The illness cannot be delayed. Since he is treating someone's illness, he must be non-stop." Shui Wuya smiled gently.

At the same time, he heard a gasp of exclamation from the opposite side.

"Uncle Gu? What's wrong?" Mo Wen asked, seeing what was wrong with Gu Ni beside him.

"You..." Gu Ni looked at the gentle smiling face in front of him in disbelief, and was so surprised that he couldn't say a word.

"Is there something wrong with me??" Shui Wuya was surprised by his reaction, pulling his sleeves and tugging at the skirt to see if he was not dressed properly.

"No...no...nothing."

Gu Ni put away his emotions and shook his head calmly, looked at Shui Wuya and smiled indifferently, followed Qidiao Mowen into the mansion, but he was full of doubts.Suddenly thinking of the direction they were going, he hurriedly followed.Whether it is true or not has not yet been determined, but if it is seen by that person...

Ying Wumei walked in with herbal tea and saw the scene in front of her. She stood there coldly, and asked herself countless times why she could stay here instead of going to the study to hide quietly.

"Brother-in-law, you should eat more. This is a meal I prepared with some snacks and some ingredients I brought from the south. You are not in good health, so you should eat more." Qin Ling sat by the bed and took a bite of food to deliver. When he came to Qi Diaoming's mouth, he regarded his cold treatment as nothing, and everyone in the room couldn't help frowning because of his coquettish tone and full of entanglement.

"No, I don't want to eat yet." Qi Diaoming refused lukewarmly.

"Little aunt, let us juniors do these things." The lacquer carving Mo Yu beside him wanted to defuse the embarrassment, but some people didn't appreciate it.

"No need, how can you children be so frizzy?" Qin Ling staggered the hand extended by Mo Yu, the lacquer carving, and gave her a look to blame her for being nosy.

"Little aunt, since my father doesn't want to take it, I think it's better to let him take the medicine and rest for a while." Qi Diao Mo Yan blocked the innocent sister who was suffering from behind, and said to Qin Ling with a polite smile.

To be honest, their brothers and sisters had a bad impression of this little aunt since they were young. Not only did they speak sarcasticly to them, but they also made things difficult for their eldest brother. It seems that she doesn't care about her mother's feelings at all, and her little thoughts about her father are very obvious.If it weren't for the fact that she and her mother were siblings after all, how could they have endured until now.

"That's fine too." Seeing Qi Diaoming's obvious indifference with half-closed eyes, Qin Ling could only take a step back.

"Mr. Ying, herbal tea." She stretched out her hand and said to Ying Wumei who was standing there expressionlessly.

Ying Wumei frowned, her quiet life was disturbed, every time she boiled herbal tea for others, he already got angry, but now she is treated like a servant, how could he tolerate it.

With a tilt of his hand, a bowl of steaming herbal tea was impartially sprinkled on Qin Ling's hand who stretched over to take the bowl.

"Ah!!" Qin Ling jumped up with a cry of surprise, covered her hands and stared at Ying Wumei in disbelief.

"Sorry, I was careless, but it seems that this herbal tea can't be drunk today." Ying Wumei shrugged regretfully.

"You..." Qin Ling was about to explode when Qi Diaoming's voice interjected at the right time.

"What are you still doing in a daze? Why don't you bring your aunt to treat your burns?" He said to the children who were stunned by what happened before him, and hinted with his eyes that they should take Qin Ling away.

"Oh..." Qi Diao Mo Tan was the first to reflect, "Little aunt, your hands are very hot, and if you don't deal with them quickly, you will leave scars." He kindly 'reminded', but Qin Ling His complexion changed, he just stared at Ying Wumei in a hurry, leaving a "wait and see" look in his eyes, and left with Mo Tan.

Seeing Qin Ling's warning eyes at the end, Ying Wumei sneered coldly, and then heard a small laugh accompanied by a light cough from behind.

Turning around, as expected, he saw Qi Diao Mingxiao's trembling shoulders, and even Qi Diao Mo Yu, who was beside him, covered his lips with his sleeve and smiled lightly.

"It's funny?" Ying Wumei raised her eyebrows.

"No..." Qi Diaoming stopped laughing, "But this is the first time I've seen Qin Ling in such a state of embarrassment."

For some reason, Ying Wumei who heard this sentence felt as if she heard an emotion called schadenfreude.

Who cares, Ying Wumei thought, he doesn't want to get involved in these things, what he misses more is the precious books in the study.

"As the head of the family, if there is nothing else, I will leave first." Ying Wumei cupped her hands and turned around to leave. After taking two steps, he stopped suddenly and paused for a moment with his back turned to the person. voice: "I will cook the medicinal tea later and give it to the servant."

"Thank you." Qi Diaoming looked at his back with frowned eyebrows, his deep gaze seemed to be searching for unknown secrets.

At this moment, the door was pushed open again, and Mo Wen walked in with Shui Wuya.

"Father, this is Shui Wuya, the famous doctor invited by the fourth brother." Mo Wen introduced to his father.

"Ah."

Qi Diaoming turned his eyes away from Ying Wumei and looked at the person in Tsing Yi. For a moment, he thought that time and space were reversed, or that he had returned to the past, otherwise, why would there be a person who always followed him in front of him? Wen Ning is a smiling man.

At the same time, another person in the room also saw Shui Wuya.

"Luo....Luomei (Ling...Lingluomei?)?"

Shui Wuya looked at the shocked two people facing him, and tore his clothes again, not knowing which one had the problem...
