Chapter 22

Helpless, desperate.

Tears flowed silently down the corners of my eyes.

Sorry, baby, Mommy didn't protect you.

"Stop!" At the moment of Qi Xia's despair, the door of the operating room was knocked open.

A well-dressed, silver haired old lady stood at the door with a mahogany crutch in her hand and stamped the floor angrily with her crutch. "Stop it, all of you. If you hurt my baby's little great grandson, see how I deal with you!"

"Grandma, why are you here?" Helian city didn't expect the old lady to suddenly appear at this juncture.

Old man Helian trembled with rage, "why am I here? If I hadn't come, you would have killed my little great grandson! I don't have such an unfilial grandson as you. Go away! "

Old Mrs. Helian lifted her crutch and hit Helian City, driving him and the doctors and nurses out of the operating room. In the operating room, only she and Qi Xia were left.

Qi Xia was in a trance. She only heard someone make a big noise. Finally, someone said in her ear, "don't worry, I will keep your child."

She finally fell asleep at ease.

In the living room of Helian's old house, old master Helian, sitting in the position of the owner, looked very blue. The old man beside him looked calm, and the faces of Helian Xiong and Bai Jinxiu were not very good-looking.

Helianbi crossed his legs and looked carelessly at heliancheng sitting on his side.

The old man slapped his palm on the table and roared, "heliancheng, you are more and more brave to do such things that damage your family! What else do you have to say now? "

He Liancheng said faintly, "the upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked. I have nothing to say."

He lianxiong, on the other side, ran up angrily, "you villain, you should say such treacherous words. Where did your tutor learn? Don't apologize to grandpa! "

Helian City lifted his lips contemptuously, "you are not qualified to teach me."

"You, you, you unfilial son!" He lianxiong trembled with anger.

He Liancheng sneered, "be careful of your high blood pressure. I advise you not to get angry."

"Bai Jinxiu, this is your good son!" He lianxiong couldn't fight for his son and directly pointed the spear at his wife Bai Jinxiu.

The old man slapped his palm on the table and said in a harsh voice, "well, get out of here if you make any noise! What a crooked top beam and a crooked bottom beam. Today, I want to rectify the atmosphere of the Helian family. Lao Lin, teach me the law! "

The old man was born in a military family, and his family education was very strict. If his children made mistakes, they could not do without a meal of family law. His so-called family law was to whip them with a whip. As soon as the housekeeper Lin heard the old man's order, he immediately ran to the old man's study to get a whip.

Lao Lin soon took the whip. The old man held the whip in his hand and looked like he was going to teach a hard lesson.

The old lady said, "well, old man! You say you're not young. Why are you so angry? A Cheng made such a mistake. Can a lesson with a whip solve the problem? Instead of beating him up, we might as well discuss what to do! I think the girl is also pregnant with a Cheng's child. Why don't you marry her? "“ No! " They all objected to Bai Jinxiu and he Lianbi, who had never spoken.

The old lady glanced at helianbi angrily, "there's nothing for you here. Stay honest and don't interrupt. As for the daughter-in-law, tell me why you object. "

Bai Jinxiu's delicate and beautiful face had no trace of years, and said calmly, "Mom, ah Cheng also said that having a relationship with that woman was just an accident, and that woman met in that place. Who knows if it's clean? Maybe she knew a Cheng's identity long ago and deliberately threatened her children to enter Helian's house. This kind of thing has not never happened. "

As soon as she said this, he lianxiong, who was already guilty, couldn't hang on his face and glared at her fiercely. She looked as if she didn't see it. She was still indifferent, but there was a faint mockery at the corner of her lips, "so I don't agree with ah Cheng to marry that woman."

He Lianbi lowered his eyes. No one noticed the complex look in his eyes. He stopped interrupting and focused on playing with the tea cup in his hand, but his finger joints were slightly white.

The old lady was obviously dissatisfied with Bai Jinxiu's accusations and frowned, "A Cheng, what do you say?"

Helian city said in a deep voice, "I won't marry her, give her a sum of money, be a child, and don't allow her to appear in Helian's house again!"

The old lady and the old man looked at each other. The old man drank tea and said slowly, "man, you can't marry, but the child must stay! The two of us are old. Our bodies are getting worse and worse day by day. Now our biggest wish is to hold our little great grandson. Even if we die one day, we will have the face to see the ancestors of the Helian family! "

He Liancheng frowned, "Grandpa and grandma, you are still in good health. When Xiya comes back from England in five years at the latest, we will get married as soon as possible and let you hold your great grandson as soon as possible."

"Five years?" The old lady exclaimed, "for people like us who put one foot in the coffin, how can we wait so many five years? Helian City, Helian City, you want me to kneel down in front of the ancestral tablets in the Buddha Hall, don't you? OK, I'll kneel now. Don't stop me! "

The old lady said that wind is rain. She stood up and went to the Buddhist hall. Her slightly trembling appearance made everyone feel that she was about to fall down, but she walked very steadily and quickly. In addition to he Lianbi, the younger generation rushed up to stop her, hugging her waist and grasping her arms. It took a long time to stop.

"You all let go of me and let my unfilial daughter-in-law kneel in front of my ancestors!"

"Mom, you calm down, calm down..."

Before he lianxiong finished comforting, the old lady sobbed again, "you don't worry about each one, you are all small and heartless..." the old lady began to complain one by one, from the cheating son to the indifferent daughter-in-law, then to the unfilial grandson, and finally fainted with tears.

The family was in a panic again. Xu Ye quickly came to check the old lady's situation. He said he was anxious and needed to relax and have a good rest.

The old man taught everyone a lesson by blowing his beard and staring, and rushed Helian city to the Buddha Hall to think about it. Then he leisurely sat down by the bed and said, "OK, old companion, there's no one. Don't pretend."

The old lady immediately opened her eyes and said with a smile, "old man, how's my acting?"

The old man thumbed up, "it's getting better and better. Even Xu Ye didn't find your flaw."

The old man smiled happily, but he didn't smile for a long time. He frowned again. "According to ah Cheng's stubborn temper, he won't promise to keep children. I think the play must continue."

The old man sighed, "if I hadn't been getting worse and worse, I wouldn't have forced him so hard. I hope that the girl Xiya can accommodate the child in the future, but don't be like the boss."

The old lady's nose was sour, patted the back of his hand and said, "don't worry, old man. I'm watching them here. No matter what, I won't let the second Liu Xiaoxiao destroy our house."

The old man looked at the no longer young face in front of him and stretched his eyebrows. It was a rare tenderness, "old companion, you have worked hard these years."

The old lady looked at him angrily. "It's an old husband and wife. What do you say?" The farce of Helian's family happened when Qi Xia was sleeping. When she woke up, it was already dusk. The sunset penetrated into the room through the thin gauze curtain and poured on the old man sitting by her bed.

The old man combed his silver hair behind his ears, dressed luxuriantly but not vulgar, and looked ruddy and kind. When Qi Xia woke up, she smiled gently, "are you awake? Are you hungry? I asked my servant to cook porridge for you. Do you want to use it first?"

Qi Xia only thought a little and knew that he was now in Helian's old house, and the old man in front of him was Helian's grandmother, old lady Helian. She heard her voice before she fell asleep under anesthesia and remembered her. Although she had full questions to ask, she was still strong when she was full, so she nodded politely, "thank you, old lady."

The old lady nodded secretly. When she woke up, she was calm and calm. She remembered that she had asked people to bring news and let herself save her from the operating table. She knew that the child was a schemer.

After eating and drinking, it's time to talk about business. The old lady smiled, "you're smart. You know Acheng doesn't want to leave children. You asked your friend ye Ruxin to send me a letter. How do you know I'll leave children? After all, the child is of unknown origin. "

Qi Xia pursed her lips. "There is a saying called, 'it's better to kill by mistake than let go'. I do this to the old lady, and the old lady does the same to me. I don't want to miss any hope, and the old lady won't miss any chance that she may be a child of Helian city. "

The old lady nodded approvingly, "since you are an understanding person, I will tell you straight away. I hope to keep this child. After you give birth to the child, I will give you a sum of money enough for you to live a rich life. The condition is that you can no longer appear in Helian's house, let alone have any involvement with the child, and give birth to some thoughts you shouldn't have."

Qi Xia's fingers holding the tea cup were slightly white, and his eyes glittered with a firm light. "The conditions offered by the old lady are very reasonable, but I also have a condition."

"You say."

"My condition is that if I give birth to a son, I leave the child to Helian's family. How to give birth to a daughter, I want to take it away. I won't ask you a penny. Of course, I will promise that I will never appear in Helian's family and have nothing to do with Helian city."

The old lady did not answer, but looked at Qi Xia calmly.

Qi Xia is calm and calm on the surface. In fact, she is very nervous. If the old lady doesn't agree with her conditions, she has no way at all. It seems that this is a fair deal. In fact, she doesn't have any decision-making power. However, she won't compromise. She wants to strive for the greatest rights and interests for herself and her children.

The old lady said slowly, "what if I don't agree?"

Qi Xia tightened her fingers holding the tea cup and said word by word, "it's a big deal. The fish die and the net is broken."

The old lady sneered, "do you think you can threaten me?"

"No," Qi Xia said seriously, "I know I have no strength to negotiate with you, but please understand my feelings from the perspective of a mother." There is no fixed number of boys and girls. She just wants to gamble once with her own children!

The old lady lowered her eyes. If she gave birth to a son, the Helian family would have a new heir. If she gave birth to a daughter, she would take her daughter away. It was also a relief for Acheng. After all, Acheng agreed to leave the child reluctantly“ OK, I can agree to your request. However, "the old lady's words turned and her eyes became very sharp." if you play tricks halfway or cause trouble to the Helian family after giving birth to a child, I will make you pay a heavy price. I think you also know the power of the Helian family in city A. "
