Chapter 543 - 543 A Misunderstanding Before the Words
Reborn to Be A Noble Wife
The study was a mess, and behind the book case, Qi Guo Gong propped his head up and couldnât see his eyebrows, but he could hear his ragged breathing.
Mrs. Qi Guo Gong entered and covered the door slightly.
Qi Guo Gong head slightly raised, eyes painful as if bound, struggling hard, but how can not struggle, can only be powerless to flip in place.
âMadam â¦,â he said in a dark voice.
âDuke of State, what exactly happened, you ⦠Why did you rush out as soon as you heard about what happened in Servant Qu s residence?â Mrs. Duke of Qi calmed her breath and asked gently.
The two of them have been husband and wife for many years, and they can see that at this time, the Duke of Qi is physically and mentally exhausted, and the whole person is like a trapped beast, and his eyes have a few moments of redness in his eyes from being trapped.
Carrying her skirt, she took two steps forward, stepping over the clutter on the floor and walking to the desk, âMaster Guo, what happened, canât you tell me? The two of us are also considered to be a couple in distress, and the most difficult time that year has come and gone, is there anything we canât get through now?â
Mrs. Duke of Qiâs words were tinged with concern, looking at the Duke of Qi, the corners of her eyes slowly contained tears, and gradually the tears fell.
Reach out and hold Qi Guo Gong placed in the book case of the hand, two people both have been dying old also, but more than half a lifetime of mutual help.
The Duke of Qiâs hand was icy and hard, stiff and tight, and under the gentle soothing of the Duke of Qiâs wife, his hand relaxed a little.
âDuke of State, go ahead, Iâll listen!â Mrs. Duke of Qi continued softly, âIs it because of Xiao Yueâs? Is Xiao Yueâs relationship with our mansion very unusual?â
Qi Guo Gongâs head lowered again, his eyes closed hard, and his hand involuntarily tried to clench again.
Duke of Qiâs wife is not in a hurry to force him, just hold his hand hard, do not let him alone to collect up the palm, a good half-loud sensing Qiâs hand is no longer resisting, only then said,âDuke of Qi, we are husband and wife for many years, even if the Duke of Qi did something ⦠I will not say anything, it is not possible that we are so Years of conjugal love, the State Prince still believe that I do not?â
The words were tinged with a bit of sadness, but remained calm and penetratingly heartbreakingly difficult, and the tone was not slow and unhurried, indicating that Mrs. Duke of Qi was contemplative and deliberate.
Words continue to say, the voice slowly with a few choking, but not sharp,âso many years as a couple, the Duke of State has been extremely good to me, many of the House and our generation are envious of me, said I married well, I also ⦠feel so, so many years, the Duke of State is extremely good to me. In fact, I ⦠didnât think that the Duke of State would be so good after I married over.â
At that time, the Duke of Qi is still just a playboy, the affairs of the House is the eldest brother to bear the responsibility, and there is a competent sister-in-law, and he is such a playboy, marry what kind of can be, are just put in the House of a surface nameplate just, married over the Duke of Qiâs wife then understand, only to complain that they can not do the Lord.
âThat will be the house out of the matter ⦠fortunately there is the State Duke in, otherwise ⦠otherwise I may be at that time donât know what to do, Jiao Er at that time is only the first born soon ⦠â¦I â¦â Mrs. Duke of Qi said here and said no more, tears fell, âDuke of State, after so many things, is it that you still donât believe me, even if you really⦠â¦really did something ⦠I ⦠I will also forgive you!â
Mrs. Duke of Qi finished the latter words with difficulty, already sobbing uncontrollably.
The room is very quiet, the only sound is the sound of Mrs. Qi Guo Gong sobbing, a good half a long time before I heard Qi Guo Gongâs dark voice,âDonât think too much, I ⦠didnât do such a thing.â
Itâs a suspicion that he has another woman and child out there.
âSince you havenât done anything like that, is there anything you canât say? Is the Duke of State afraid that Iâll get angry, or that Iâll do something bad, or that he purely doesnât believe me?â Lady Duke of Qi wiped her tears and asked.
âHow can I not believe you, it is just that this ⦠this ⦠thing,â Qi Gong Dao, his eyes are all pain.
âDuke of State, youâve already suffered to this point over this matter, is it hard to believe that youâre still unwilling to talk about it even now? Husband and wife are one, the two of us have been very good for so many years, is it not possible that you still want to hide it from me even now?â Mrs. Duke of Qi continued softly, her red eyes staring tightly at Qi Guo.
âYou ⦠donât understand â¦â Qi Guo Gong breathed hard, the stabbing pain in his heart not receding but getting worse.
âThe State Eunuch said, I naturally understand, the State Eunuch you say it, I can hold up, no matter what you say I can hold up, and it will not affect the relationship between the two of us, are so old, there is what can not be thought of? State Eunuch, look at our age, no one knows if I can still get up tomorrow, by then, even if State Eunuch wants to say, I have no way to listen!â
Lady Qi Guo Gong smiled to herself, her grip on Qi Guo Gongâs husband trembled for a moment before her gaze fell to the hands the two were holding.
Both hands have aged, no longer the tender look of when they first saw each other when they were young, and no longer snow-white and full of moisture.
Qi Guo Gongâs heart seemed to have been struck twice by something heavy, so painful that he almost had the urge to shed tears as well, his heart aching and sour.
The two of them really werenât young anymore, was it hard to keep this secret from her forever? In fact, she also had the right to know about it, didnât she?
âDo you remember big brother and sister-in-law?â He heard himself putting words into his mouth.
The words just came out of his mouth, and it was too late to regret covering them up.
âHow can I forget, even if so many years have passed, big brother and sister-in-law both ⦠will not forget!â Mrs. Duke of Qi sighed, and took a handkerchief and wiped her tears, âI have always remembered, only to enter the door when you are not long ⦠I will also make a tantrum, every time this time sister-in-law will come over to persuade me, even if that time her identity is far from me to be comparable. â
Qi Guo Gongâs parents had died early, and his only eldest brother was many years older than him, Qi Guo Gong had always been very respectful of his elder brother and sister-in-law who had supported his family.
At that time how he did not expect his elder brother and sister-in-law two will make the thing of collaborating with the enemy, moreover did not expect the entire mansion of his family overnight immediately was catapulted to destruction.
âBefore big brother and sister in law were ⦠there, I ⦠I went to see them ⦠â Qi Guo Gong tiger tears with tears, his eyes straight at a certain point in the air, slowly recalling.
Mrs. Duke of Qi was shocked, her head suddenly raised, this thing she did not know, and then did not hear the Duke of Qi talk about it, her hand clenched tightly, and then slightly relaxed, knowing that this should be the key to the matter, did not step up to force the question, only quietly listening.
Sure enough, there is no need to ask, Qi Guo Gong continued down,âSister-in-law was pregnant at the time, when I went in, sister-in-law because of the previous things, and fell and suffered a shock, premature labor, just in time to give birth to the child â¦â
The Duke of Qi stopped here again, his head lowered, knocking on his own wrist, exerting himself to quell the pain and excitement in his heart.
This matter, he still want to continue to say? This matter originally he wanted to rot in his heart, but just now under the agitation of the mood, actually so out of the mouth?
Mrs. Duke of Qi has been shocked eyes panic, she remembered, sister-in-law at that time was pregnant, and her own month difference is not big.
The big house was copied, since the house of a house because of the Duke of China, although spared, but then the situation and how will not be frightened, she was also born prematurely at that time, after that will be lying in a coma to maintain the body, only to pay attention to the birth of the youngest daughter, knowing that for the outside of the matter can not help what help, only secretly wiped a few will be tears for the rest of the things do not dare to ask more questions.
Afraid of annoying her husband again, she didnât dare to inquire more about other things.
âXiao Yueâs ⦠Xiao Yueâs is the big brotherâs daughter?â Mrs. Duke of Qi asked in a trembling voice, her face as white as snow, her body shook and almost fell, her voice carrying a broken breath as if she couldnât catch her breath, âThat ⦠thatâs the crime of deceiving the king.â
The Duke of Qi backhandedly grabbed Mrs. Duke of Qiâs hand, seemingly wanting to give her strength and also seemingly wanting to give himself strength before he continued to vaguely say, âThis is big brotherâs only hope, and also big brotherâs only bloodline, and I ⦠donât want to look at my big brother and sister-in-law extinguish their only bloodline, and sneakily bring out the baby brought out, then ⦠then â¦â
The words were too much to say anymore, only to feel pain in all his organs, if he did it again, would he do it again?
The baby will definitely be brought out, but what about this next? Will there be so many more misadventures?
âItâs all my fault, itâs all me!â Qi Guo Gong blamed himself, his eyes were powerless and closed, he only felt his head buzzing, although the words were spoken and could not be taken back, but at this time, he was not willing to speak further in depth.
âIâm fine, I just want to be quiet first!â He let go of Mrs. Duke of Qiâs hand and said feebly, âIâll write a folding letter to the Emperor in a while to give up the title to my son.â
âDuke of State, what do you want?â Mrs. Duke of Qi panicked and asked urgently.
âI am fine, I am just tired, just want to ⦠think quietly will.â Qi Guo Gong Dao, his head slowly lowered again, as if this moment his head was as heavy as a mountain.
âItâs all my fault, if I could have taken good care of this child ⦠in the beginning, there wouldnât have been what happened today, itâs me who canât do right by this child, itâs me who canât do right by her.â The Duke of Qi said in a sad voice, his eyes reddening once again.
âThis thing canât blame you ⦠you are also benevolent to the end â¦â Mrs. Qi Guo Gong breathed a sigh of relief, the causes and consequences, this will be she felt that she has figured out, see Qi Guo Gong so sad, heart also very uncomfortable, see him at this time also do not want to talk, can only turn away.
When he walked to the door, he turned his head again originally wanted to bark a few words, and seeing Qi Guo Gongâs head buried deep in his arm, he could only sigh deeply in his heart, and then walked out slowly.
This result let her unexpected, but also seems to be not all unexpected, just the heart of the shock for a long time can not be quelled, this counts up but the crime of deceiving the king ah â¦
If people turn out, the entire Qi Gongfu will bear the responsibility, this kind of thing is still rotten in the stomach of the good â¦
