The two of them walked all the way back and passed by Wang's door. Seeing that her lights were still on, Xi Jin said, "I wonder if Qi Qi is feeling better today? You wait for me here and I'll go take a look."
"Okay, I'll wait for you here. I've bought all the medicinal materials you asked me to buy." Xie Luo said.
"Yeah." She knew that Xie Luo was reliable.
Xi Jin pushed the door open and went in. Mrs. Wang was making clothes under the lamp, and Qi Qi fell asleep beside her, so peaceful and lovely.
"Xie Luo, wife, you are here." Wang quickly stood up and poured a bowl of water for her.
"I was delayed by something today, so I just came back. I just wanted to see if Qi Qi was okay?"
As Xi Jin spoke, he sat by Qi Qi's bed and touched her forehead. The fever had subsided. He took her pulse again, which was still a little weak.
"I asked my husband to buy medicine in the morning. Later I will boil the medicine and bring it to Qi Qi to take. I think she will be fine tomorrow."
"Thank you, wife Xie Luo." Mrs. Wang held Xi Jin's hand, "I don't have any extra money to give you. I will pay you back when I have money to make clothes."
"Why are you talking about this?" Xi Jin shook Wang's hand, "My husband and I both like Qi Qi very much. Isn't this affection worth the price of this bowl of medicine?"
Mrs. Wang smiled gratefully and asked Xi Jin: "I didn't go to work today. Didn't Aunt Li say anything?"
"Don't worry, there are a lot of things happening in the workshop today, and Aunt Li doesn't have the energy to take care of you at all."
Xi Jin said, telling Wang everything that happened in the workshop today.
After hearing this, Mrs. Wang opened her mouth in surprise: "This Lin Churou is really going too far, but fortunately you are deft and can save the day."
"It's a trivial matter for Lin Churou. She won't come to Lan'er every day to cause trouble."
Xi Jin did not tell Wang about Lin Churou's pregnancy. The fewer people who knew about it, the better.
"It's just..." Xi Jin hesitated, not knowing what to say.
"Are you worried that Shi Lingyin will steal Xie Luo?" Wang asked with a smile.
"Not really, Xie Luo's vision is not that low, it's just..."
Xi Jin couldn't tell what she was worried about, but she felt a little overwhelmed when she thought of Xie Luo's silence just now. She couldn't even guess what Xie Luo was thinking.
"Jin'er." Mrs. Wang shook Xi Jin's hand, "How much older am I than you? Can I call you that?"
"Of course, I also think it's a bit awkward for you to call me Xie Luo's wife." Xi Jin said with a smile.
"Jin'er, have you and Xie Luo consummated your marriage yet?" Wang hit the nail on the head.
"How do you know?" Xi Jin had an incredulous look on his face. As soon as he said the words, he realized that he had made a mistake.
"I sent Qi Qi to your house yesterday and saw that there was a curtain between your beds. I was wondering why you had a curtain between your beds. Now I can guess it by the way you look uneasy."
"Jin'er, I'm from here. Although Qi Qi's father is missing now, our relationship was very good at that time. Believe me, if you really decide to go with Xie Luo, then you should be a good wife. Everything should be done, otherwise, over time, suspicion will inevitably arise.”
After hearing Wang's words, Xi Jin was silent for a long time. Did he really want to go on with Xie Luo? It is undeniable that Xie Luo is an excellent husband candidate.
But the cause of Shangguan Ba's death is still unknown, so how can she live her life with peace of mind.
"I understand. My husband is still waiting for me outside. I'll go back first." Xi Jin stood up uneasily and said goodbye to Mrs. Wang.
Wang looked at Xi Jin's devastated look and shook her head with a smile.
This girl is usually smart and capable, but she is so confused when it comes to emotional matters, which is really embarrassing for Xie Luo.
Xijin followed Xie Luo all the way home, and when she entered the door, before she could react, she saw Xie Luo stretched out his long arm and closed the door behind her.
Xi Jin subconsciously took a step back and leaned against the door.
Xie Luo put his hand on the door and stared down at Xi Jin, the expression in his deep eyes was so complicated that it was difficult to understand.
"Jin'er." Xie Luo called her in a low voice, his voice low and hoarse.
"Huh?" The two of them breathed each other, and Xi Jin could almost feel the heat on Xie Luo's body, "What do you want to do?"
"What do you think?" Xie Luo looked down at the woman in his arms and laughed for no reason.
Xi Jin weakly pushed his shoulder. Thinking of what Wang said, she was a little scared, and even her voice was filled with tears: "You promised not to bully me."
When Xie Luo heard Xi Jin's tender cry, he quickly let go of his hand, held her face in his big hands, and looked at her intently: "Who said I wanted to bully you?"
"But...but," Xi Jin sobbed, "Qi Qi Niang said, I should do my duty as a wife, otherwise you will be suspicious. You just walked away with a straight face, why don't you Do you just want to bully me?"
Xie Luo looked at Xi Jin with a faint smile: "Then tell me, Mrs. Wang, what did she tell you about a wife's duty?"
Xi Jin bit his lip and pointed to the curtain on the bed with difficulty: "Of course it's that one."
"Which one?"
Seeing that Xie Luo was asking questions knowingly, Xi Jin pushed him away angrily: "I won't talk to you anymore."
Xi Jin walked into the kitchen at a loss and started rummaging around. Xie Luo took the medicinal materials and handed them over: "Are you looking for this?"
Xi Jin took the medicinal materials and ignored him, and continued to cook the medicine for himself.
"Jin'er." Xie Luo took a small stool and sat next to Xi Jin, "Whether you are willing to fulfill your duties as a wife or not, I will not doubt you."
Xi Jin asked back: "Then why didn't you talk to me all the way just now? You're not like this usually."
Only then did Xie Luo realize what Jin'er was struggling with, and hurriedly explained: "I was just thinking, you said Lin Churou's choice was the right one, would you be like her?"
"She said she wasn't jealous of me." Xi Jin said angrily, "Can I be the same as her?"
Seeing Xie Luo looking at her seriously, Xi Jin continued to explain: "I just feel that she has fallen into the situation she is in today. Lord Feng is her best choice, but I still have such a good choice, how could I be like this?" She is the same."
"Jin'er, what did you say?" Xie Luo's eyes lit up with surprise.
"I said..." Seeing Xie Luo's happy look, Xi Jin suddenly stopped talking, a little shy and didn't know how to continue.
"Jin'er, you will choose me, right?" Xie Luo hugged Xi Jin with joy, "You still like me in your heart, right?"
Xi Jin couldn't help but smile at the corner of his lips. He couldn't break away from Xie Luo's embrace. Xi Jin could only say softly: "Let me go first. Qi Qi is still waiting for me to boil the medicine."
"Okay." Xie Luo was as happy as a child. "I'll make the medicine. You go and wash up first. Uncle Liu and I ordered a bathtub. It will be ready in a few days. Then you can sit in the bathtub." Bathed."
"Uncle Liu can also make bathtubs, that's really great."
Xi Jin readily accepted Xie Luo's kindness, and she also thought it would be more convenient to have a bathtub.
But she didn't expect that bathing in a tub would be so tiring.
