From such a close distance, it was impossible to see his face clearly due to the darkness and the obstruction of the bed curtain.

Just being able to be in this room and sleeping on that couch, Qiu Huixian knew that he was her husband without thinking too much.

Would a man as powerful and powerful as him... actually take care of himself when he was injured, feverish, and confused?

I really can't believe it.

Qiu Huixian sat up with her elbows on the bed.

This movement shocked Xie Changyu, who was resting in peace. He sat up, took a look inside the bed tent, walked over to the bed, opened the curtain and sat on the bed string, "Are you awake?"

Because he was woken up, Xie Changyu's voice was a little hoarse, "What do you want?"

"..."

Qiu Huixian was silent for a moment and said softly: "Why are you resting on the couch? It's not comfortable to lie down there."

When they first got married, Xie Changyu slept on the couch for a few days.

At that time, it was to give her respect so that everyone in the house could not look down upon her.

On the other hand, it was because he choked her in the middle of the night and she felt unconscious.

Although the two are not yet an old couple, they seem to be very familiar with each other. Everyone in the family respects Qiu Huixian, so there is no need for him to stay specially.

He can actually go to the living room or study to rest.

Staying here specifically made Qiu Huixian feel a little touched in her heart.

"Your condition is not good... To be honest, this injury was caused by my improper handling of things." Xie Changyu said calmly: "You are my wife. You can't lie down comfortably anywhere."

Priscilla Qiu glanced at him in astonishment, then her eyes softened and she lowered her eyes, "Worrying my husband."

"Don't say anything to others."

Xie Changyu asked: "What do you want? Drinking water or going to the toilet?"

"I'm a little thirsty."

"Ah."

Xie Changyu responded and got up to pour water for Qiu Huixian.

Just touching the kettle, I found that the water inside was already cold.

Xie Changyu called out from outside.

Aunt Cui, who was keeping watch at night, came in quickly and took Cui'er away with the kettle.

Originally, Xie Changyu's personal soldiers kept vigil in Changfeng Garden.

Ever since Qiu Huixian got married, it was naturally inconvenient for the soldiers to get close to her, and they were all sent outside by Xie Changyu.

Not long after, Aunt Cui brought warm water and wanted to go into the room to serve her, but Xie Changyu took the kettle and closed the door, showing no intention of letting her in.

Aunt Cui glanced in uneasily, and when she was about to speak but hesitated, she was photographed outside the door.

Xie Changyu was not used to the routine of aristocratic families, and did not like to be served by unfamiliar maids and servants. To him, they were just idle people.

Letting someone into the couple's room in the middle of the night was baffling to him.

He carried the pot and put it on the table, poured a glass of water and sent it to Qiu Huixian.

Qiu Huixian's hand was injured and she couldn't move it. Xie Changyu naturally brought the tea directly to Qiu Huixian's lips.

Qiu Huixian glanced at him sheepishly.

From childhood to adulthood, he has always been served by maids.

It felt strange being served by this big man for the first time.

"Why don't you drink?"

Xie Changyu frowned slightly, took a sip of water, and brought it to Qiu Huixian's lips, "It's not hot, the temperature is just right."

Qiu Huixian: "..."

She leaned forward and drank the glass of water from Xie Changyu's hand, "More."

Xie Changyu stood up and poured another glass, brought it to Qiu Huixian's lips and waited for her to drink it. This time he took the initiative to ask: "Would you like more?"

Qiu Huixian shook her head: "No more."

Xie Changyu put the teacup back on the table.

When she returned to the bed again, Qiu Huixian moved in and found a large space on the outside.

Xie Changyu took a look and got on the bed, "You have to be careful with your hands. Don't bump into them, don't touch the water, and don't use force." "I understand."

Qiu Huixian nodded and asked softly: "Are you sleepy?"

Xie Changyu saw that she was probably not sleepy, so he didn't respond to the question. He moved closer to her, holding Qiu Huixian in his arms habitually, "Let's talk."

Qiu Huixian: "..."

He was leaning lazily on the cushions, with long arms and legs. Even with his knees bent, he still had a strong presence in this room.

Qiu Huixian originally wanted to call him to take a rest, but she didn't expect him to show his attitude of chatting... But he didn't speak.

After a moment of silence, Priscilla Qiu found a topic on her own.

"I feel like I slept for a long time."

Xie Changyu said: "It's been two days."

"I see...how was the matter handled?"

"According to what you said, I didn't go to war and asked Yunzhou Sima to take his wife away. However, Ji Zian who hurt you cannot be let go and will be handed over to the government."

"The rest of the people have apologized to Huan'er. I am also with the Branch Academy and will treat this matter as if it never happened."

Qiu Huixian said: "How will the government deal with Ji Zian?"

"According to the law, if you hurt someone with a weapon, you will be punished by more than three years in prison... But his father is Yunzhou Sima. You are right. There are many connections in the officialdom. I have to look at the Buddha's face even if I don't look at the monk's face."

After a pause, Xie Changyu said: "So I let Yunzhou Sima decide what to do."

"Then he came to apologize in person, and then quickly divorced the Wei family and sent Ji Zian back to his hometown."

Qiu Huixian fell silent.

There is nothing wrong with this approach.

Whether you are an adult or a child, you must take responsibility if you make a mistake.

But that Wei family...

Sima Yunzhou had many wives and concubines and many children.

This first wife had given birth to several girls in succession but never had a son. This was no secret in Youyun's aristocratic circle.

After much begging, I begged for a child like Ji Zian.

Then he put all his hopes on his son.

Qiu Priscilla once heard from her younger brother who was studying at Qingyun Academy that Ji Zian was paranoid and irritable, which probably had a lot to do with his parents and family.

Now, his teaching was not good, he got into great trouble, and ended up being expelled back to his hometown.

With the methods used by the side room in Sima Yunzhou's house, I'm afraid it will be difficult for the main wife to come back.

Wives, concubines, sons and daughters.

Most women seem to be stuck in it all their lives and cannot get out of it.

Qiu Huixian leaned on Xie Changyu's shoulder, and her eyes inadvertently fell on the mountain plum at the carved partition not far away.

The mountain plum has been in the vase for many days.

The flowers were not blooming so vigorously a few days ago, and Yin'er even mentioned making them into dried flowers.

I was just distracted by those two.

Now Qiu Huixian looks back and sees that Shanmei is already in decline.

About to wither...

Qiu Huixian's mind also became confused.

She is injured now. Although the injury is on her hand, it is not convenient for her to serve her husband. Is it time to take on a concubine?

Get up early and face reality early.

I won't think about these things anymore.

"What's wrong?" Xie Changyu looked at her and looked at the mountain plum. He thought for a while and said, "I'll have someone pick another one tomorrow. The mountain plum in the suburbs is blooming very well, and it shouldn't have faded yet."

"correct--"

He suddenly remembered something, held Priscilla Qiu's shoulders and leaned her against the cushion, got up and went to get the wooden box on the table.

But when I came back, I was empty-handed.

Xie Changyu frowned slightly: "I brought you something when I came back, but it's not good now." (End of Chapter)
