Chapter 1228 The Grand Finale (14)
After Bailijing finished speaking, he stood up and walked out.

Qin Xue had been waiting outside, and when she saw Baili Jing coming out, she hurried over and asked, "Father, why did you come to find... second uncle?"

Baili looked at Qinxue peacefully, "I have something to do with him, son, go back, don't come to this place."

"Hmm..." Although Qinxue nodded, she still glanced inside from the corner of her eye. ==
At the East Gate Ferry, Zuo Qiukai and Bai Lishan, who had already changed into coarse linen clothes, were holding a baby each.

Zuo Qiukai kept his eyes on the bustling crowd, but he never saw the longing figure.

"Akai, who are you waiting for?" Bai Lishan came over, her face was still weak and pale after giving birth, but fortunately, she was accompanied by two maids from the underworld arranged by Shui Zhuyun, so she was not hurt at all. The slightest invasion of wind and cold.

"Young madam, the boat is about to leave." The maid came over and said respectfully to Bai Lishan.

Withdrawing his disappointed eyes, Zuoqiu Kai turned around resolutely, with a deep voice, "Forget it, sister-in-law, let's go!"

Bai Lishan was someone who had been there, and clearly captured the loss in his eyes, holding the baby in one hand, and tugging Zuoqiu Kai's sleeve with the other hand, forcing him to stop.

"Akai, if you are waiting for someone, then let's wait a little longer, don't miss it and regret for life."

"No." Zuo Qiukai didn't look back, and glanced at the paddle steamer that had already started to whistle, "It's past three o'clock, and the boat is about to leave. If she wanted to, she would have come already. Since she didn't come, maybe There are other things that have been delayed, we are now in a special period, we can't stay here too much, sister-in-law should hurry up and get on the boat! So as not to delay the time."

After all, Zuo Qiukai walked to the side of the paddle wheel boat and stepped on the gangway without looking back.

Bai Lishan turned her head and glanced at the crowd, but found nothing unusual. She sighed slightly and called the two maidservants, "Let's go!"

The two men took their bags and followed immediately.

The paddle steamer started and slowly went up the Jingling Canal.

Zuo Qiukai handed the baby to the maid, and he stood on the deck by himself.

The speed of the paddle steamer is getting faster and faster, and the wind on both sides of the strait is getting colder and colder, like a knife cutting through the skin, the pain is unbearable. Most of the boats are merchants who have to go out in winter. No one wants to come out and blow the cold wind.

The figure of Zuo Qiukai alone looks like a silent sculpture.

He fell into a long memory.

From the first time I saw Qinxue in the pharmacy, to her bravery against her elder brother when her sister-in-law passed by, to the time when she was slandered and almost married into the prime minister's mansion.

Those memories are strung together to weave a sad melody.

He pursed his lips tightly, feeling inferior for the first time for his identity as a bastard.

If...if he was the eldest son of the Zuoqiu family and had the right to speak in the mansion, if he could stand up in time when she was slandered, everything might not be as it is now.

She would not go to Xiao Jiu for help in order to save herself, let alone make a marriage contract with Xiao Jiu that did not exist overnight.

He clenched his fists tightly, nails digging into his flesh, excruciating pain.

The wind and snow hit his eyelashes, forcing him to close his eyes.The moment it opened again, it was blazing brightly.

He said to himself in his heart that one day in the future, he must turn all "what ifs" into reality.

==
Pei Jin really did what he said, and he heard that Ye Tianyu went to the palace immediately after returning from the hunting ground.
