Chapter 553: Coming to Qingmeng's Sister
Mo Liujue looked at Mo Liuteng, who was kneeling on the ground with only tears in his eyes, shook his head, squatted down and said, "Sometimes you have to use your brain to look at things, not your emotions."
I don’t know whether Mo Liuteng heard it or not.
As Mo Liujue stood up, he said to Mo Liuyuan, "Second brother, don't be too confused by the situation. To be honest, I'm here for my sister Qingmeng's sake."
When Mo Liuyuan wanted to ask what was going on, Mo Liujue just waved his hand and turned around and left with Mo Liuchen.
Mo Liuteng was speechless. He really felt wronged. His father, mother and three brothers all stood on Chu Qingmeng's side. His third brother always defended her, and his second brother kept silent. He really felt "struggling alone".
At the beginning of the afternoon, the coffin was buried in a beautiful place near Zhuangzishang.
After the funeral was over, everyone went back home.
It was the hour of Xu, and Chu Qingmeng had not yet returned home. Mo Liujin was getting a little impatient. Even if it was to prevent Qingmeng from going to the funeral, shouldn't he have let him go by now?
Just as I was thinking about it, Chu Qingmeng came back.
Seeing her return, Mo Liujin finally felt relieved, but he didn't go to greet her as usual. He gave her a deep look and then looked away.
He needed to calm down. Although he had known that Qing Meng was going to attack his mother, and he had tried his best to stop him, it was still his mother who died.
He is very confused now. He knows that his mother's behavior of taking a concubine has angered her. He also knows that he touched that woman and she has a knot in her heart. He is sorry for her and he feels guilty towards her.
But... he really couldn't coax her as carefreely as before.
Chu Qingmeng didn't want to pay attention to him. She was really tired after the whole day's preparations. She just stood at the door of the main hall, greeted Jiang Qing and Jiang Che, and turned back to the warm room.
Jiang Che stood up and chased after her. His mother looked unhappy and her fatigue was obvious.
Jiang Qing waited until Jiang Che left before speaking, "Father, I really shouldn't interfere in your affairs with Mother, but Mother's health really can't stand your anger."
Mo Liujin immediately raised his eyes and looked at him, "What do you mean?"
Mo Jiangqing lowered his eyes, hiding his emotions. "It's so hot in the warm room, and mother's hands are so cold. Didn't father notice?"
"...It's not just my hands that are cold." Mo Liujin leaned weakly on the chair.
Mo Jiangqing sighed, "Jiang Che went to see Fourth Master last night, hoping he'd prescribe some medicine for Mother. But Fourth Master refused, simply telling us to take good care of Mother. No matter how much we asked, he refused to say a word. Father, why is that?"
Mo Liujin seemed to suddenly understand something. Was this the reason why he had 'disappeared' when he asked Leng Feng to find Quan Si that day?! He couldn't be cured, so he avoided them!
He immediately got up and went to the warm room. Chu Qingmeng had already chased Mo Jiangche away, and tiredly went to bed and quickly fell asleep.
Mo Liujin sat by the bed, looking at her, reaching out to stroke her face. "How long has it been since you came back? Are you sleeping so soundly?" He sighed and wanted to move her inward so that he could lie down more easily, but he saw the gauze wrapped around her hand.
After asking Chunhe, I finally felt relieved. I was glad she wasn't trying to commit suicide. I quietly went to bed and held her in my arms again, and slept soundly all night.
The next day, Chu Qingmeng was a little surprised when she woke up in Mo Liujin's arms. She only learned about the death of Aunt Liu after she left the palace yesterday. She thought that Mo Liujin would not want to see her at least for this period of time.
Mo Liujin saw that she had woken up, but didn't move or speak. He felt sad and held her in his arms, stroking her white hair. "Qingmeng, let me dye your hair."
Chu Qingmeng didn't say anything, got up from the bed and let him do what he wanted.
At the exact time of Si, the military officer came and went to the front hall to discuss matters.
Chu Qingmeng ordered someone to prepare a carriage and went to the fifth floor. He stayed there for four or five days and was unwilling to return home.
She stopped everyone who wanted to deal with Song Wanwan. She wanted to see when Mo Liujin would deal with her.
Mo Liujin would go to the fifth floor to look for her almost every time he had free time, but he couldn't get in, so he could only stare blankly at her window from the doorway. She would open the window every day, either sitting by the window reading a book or fiddling with a rag doll.
It was not until the sixth day that Xu woke up with her period, and the maids began to make preparations in an orderly manner.
Feiying went to the fifth floor to report the news. Chu Qingmeng was unusually happy and immediately returned home.
Seeing the old women and maids coming in and out, Chu Qingmeng was always worried. The medical conditions in ancient times were so poor, could something go wrong?
By noon, she could no longer wait and asked Shuangcheng to go and Quansi to get a few doctors who were proficient in obstetrics and gynecology. Shuangcheng left as soon as he said so. Li came out of the room and saw that she was fidgeting, so she hurriedly spoke to comfort her.
"Mom, don't worry. She's six fingers dilated now and will give birth soon."
"Can I go in and take a look?" Chu Qingmeng only remembered that it was extremely painful when the bone was opened. She couldn't remember how painful it was, so she knew nothing about Xu's condition.
"Girl, good girl, please wait for news outside. The maids and servants will be in a mess as soon as you go in." Chunhe hurriedly dissuaded her.
