As early as when his grandmother came up with this ridiculous idea of saving seeds when he visited the prison, Xie Luo refused.
He knew that he was trapped in a quagmire and was in danger. Even though the Xie family had a wide network of contacts, it seemed that he would not be able to escape unscathed this time, so he did not want to drag any woman down.
When the idea of choosing a woman to save his seed came up, my grandmother took out the marriage contract with Miss Mu Da that my father had made for himself when he was in the right position.
The Xie family has been ups and downs over the years, and has never been stable. Although he knew that he was engaged, Xie Luo no longer expected the Mu family to fulfill the engagement, and he had never thought of threatening the Mu family with this.
How could those official ladies like me who is now full of copper odor? What's more important is that Mu Xiyao is not the person he likes.
But what he didn't expect was that a few days after his grandmother handed the marriage contract to the Mu family, the Mu family actually sent a reply saying that they agreed to the marriage.
It's just that the one who married was not the eldest daughter of the Mu family, but the second daughter, Mu Xijin.
When he heard Mu Xijin's name, he couldn't help but feel a tremor in his heart, as if he had seen the face that made his heart beat again when he was young.
It was rumored by the outside world that she had a vicious mind and extremely sophisticated methods. She abandoned her biological mother at a young age, flattered the royal wife, and became the direct daughter of the Mu family.
Later, she used unknown means to get attached to Shangguan Ba, the son of Prince Ning. If Prince Ning hadn't rebelled and Shangguan Ba was exiled, she would have been the crown prince's concubine now.
But he believed that Mu Xijin was not what people said. If she hadn't saved a little girl selling plum blossoms, she would not have fallen into the East Lake.
He witnessed everything from the sidelines, so he immediately jumped into the lake to rescue her.
"What did you say? When you..." Faced with Xie Luo's self-deprecation, Xijin was shocked. Wasn't it his sister Mu Xiyao who he proposed to marry?
Just as Xi Jin was about to say something, his mother's urging voice came from outside the cell: "Master, time is running out."
"Jin'er, I'm sorry." Xie Luo said, putting his big hand on the back of Xi Jin's head and putting her down on the floor.
"Xie Luo." Xi Jin was panicking in her heart. She was prepared, but when this moment came, she still couldn't accept it calmly.
Xie Luo grabbed the small hand on his chest and looked at Mu Xijin seriously, with a reassuring curve on his lips: "Don't worry, I know that I am a dying person and I will not harm you."
Xie Luo said, pretending to lie on Xi Jin's body, and lifted the quilt to cover the two of them. The pattern of hundreds of sons and thousands of grandchildren on the brocade quilt dazzled Xi Jin's eyes, and he couldn't help but feel a little sour.
"Jin'er, can you call me husband?" Xie Luo leaned closely against Xi Jin, breathing could be heard as he spoke. He suddenly felt that it would be a blessing to be a husband before he died, especially Is it that person or Mu Xijin.
Smelling Xie Luo's faint fragrance, Xi Jin couldn't help but blush, and his face was instantly filled with blush.
Xie Luo looked at Xi Jin's red face, and the worries in his heart for many days suddenly disappeared. The words in his heart almost blurted out: "Jin'er, do you know? I once..."
Xie Luo almost vomited out his childhood feelings, but looking at the delicate face of the woman beneath him, he couldn't help but blame himself for being impulsive, so he changed the topic: "If I'm no longer here, take care of my grandmother for me, okay?"
"Okay." Xi Jin seemed to understand Xie Luo's hesitation, "Xie Luo, I'm here prepared."
Xi Jin admitted that he wanted to use his identity as Xie's widow to get rid of the Mu family. In this case, he had to pay something, otherwise he would feel guilty for the rest of his life.
"Seriously?" Xie Luo had a deep smile in his eyes. Without waiting for Xijin's reply, he suddenly smiled softly and leaned forward to kiss her softly.
Xi Jin's head buzzed. This was the first time she was kissed by a man. Even if it was Shangguan Ba, the two of them were in love but polite and never made any move beyond the rules.
I don't know if it was because of the surge of blood, but Xi Jin suddenly felt that his eyesight went dark.
Before fainting, I could only hear the gentle and clear voice saying: "Jin'er, thank you for coming."
When he woke up the next day, it was already three o'clock in the morning. Xijin sat up and saw the maid Ping'er sitting next to the bed crying. Seeing her waking up, Ping'er hurriedly squeezed out a smile: "Miss, Are you awake?"
Mu Xijin raised her eyes, and her clear eyes swept over the furnishings in the room. The red candles in the room were not extinguished, and the red decoration made Xi Jin immediately realize that this was the new house of the Xie Mansion.
Xi Jin stroked his swollen head and tried to recall what happened last night: "Ping'er, how did I get back last night?"
"Miss..." Ping'er lowered her head and blushed, "You fainted last night, and it was Grandma Xie who carried you back."
"Fainted?" Xi Jin asked himself that he was in good health, but he seemed to really not be able to remember what happened last night.
Ping'er blushed and murmured shyly: "Grandma Xie said this is a common thing between husband and wife. I just want you to rest for a while."
Xi Jin stood up and came to the bronze mirror. He looked at himself in the mirror. His clothes were messy and there were faint red spots on his neck. The memory of last night became clearer little by little. The dim cell, the handsome face...
She never thought that she could actually escape from Xie Luo's hands. Xie Luo was a true gentleman. Not only did he not force her to leave his bloodline for him, but he also took into account her own situation and deliberately created the illusion that the two of them were in the same room. , Xi Jin thought about countless possibilities, but he never thought it would be such a result.
There was a little sadness in Xi Jin's eyes, but he quickly covered it up: "Ping'er, prepare hot water for me, I want to take a bath."
At this moment, she needs to take a good bath and think about what to do next?
Ping'er had a look of embarrassment on her face: "Miss, please bear with me a little longer. The old lady of the Xie Mansion has ordered that you are not allowed to bathe or get wet today. You should try your best to lie down and rest."
Xi Jin understood what Ping'er said, and her face turned red instantly. Just when she was about to say something, there was a sudden knock on the door, interrupting her shyness.
Ping'er glanced at her master in confusion and ran to open the door. Xijin gathered her clothes and sat back on the bed.
After a while, someone opened the curtain and came in. Mu Xijin raised her eyes and saw a young woman in her early twenties walking in. She had a beautiful face and a deliberately close gesture on her face.
"Ruoru has seen the young lady." The young woman saluted gracefully, and her description was a bit charming.
Xijin looked at Ping'er with some exploration. Ping'er was also a smart person and immediately explained: "Miss, this is sister Ruoru. She was sent by the old lady to deliver medicine to you."
It turned out to be in the old lady's room. No wonder she was dressed much better than ordinary maids. In addition, she had already combed her hair into a woman's bun, so she was not an ordinary maid.
"Young lady is well, my slave Ruoru. I used to serve the young master. The old lady said that I know some personnel matters, so I arranged for my slave to serve you." As Ruoru said, her eyes fell on Xi Jin's lower abdomen, revealing a hint of meaning. A deep smile.
Before Xijin could speak, Ruoru put down the food box with familiarity and took out a bowl of black medicine: "Young madam, this is what the old lady ordered. Please drink the medicine."
Xi Jin knew the properties of the medicine. It was a medicine for relieving pregnancy and replenishing the body. If she was really pregnant, this medicine would be very helpful to her body. But nothing happened between her and Xie Luo last night, and her menstrual period was approaching. , if you drink such a tonic medicine, you may not be able to bear it for a while.
