Picked Up A Husband For Farming - Chapter 271

271 Qiao Jiqing’s Past

Yi Chulin had been unconscious for many days before he finally woke up. Deng Chengxi was overjoyed and excited.

Putting aside Deng Jiangming’s high blood pressure, he really couldn’t do anything about his sister.

Yi Chulin felt that he had slept for a long time, so long that he had forgotten why he was lying here. His dark eyes looked calm.

When Xu Qing came over in a wheelchair and saw Yi Chulin’s expression, she was shocked. Could it be that he had given up?

!!
“Little Qing, come and take a look. What’s wrong with him?” Deng Chengxi looked flustered. Why did Yi Chulin seem so out of it after he woke up?

Xu Qing flipped Yi Chulin’s eyelids and took his pulse, then confirmed that he was fine. He didn’t lose his memory, nor was he crippled. He was probably just heartbroken.

“He’s fine.” Xu Qing’s emotion was difficult to discern. If Ying Zhiyao didn’t appear, she might lose Yi Chulin forever.

Deng Chengxi looked confused. How could Yi Chulin be fine?

Xu Qing thought about it and decided to tell Deng Chengxi the truth.

Deng Chengxi felt very conflicted when she heard this. When she heard that Yi Chulin gave up, she realized that she wasn’t as happy as she had imagined. She didn’t know why she was like this. Perhaps it was because she could no longer piece her broken heart back together.

Xu Qing couldn’t be bothered to care about other things. She just had to save him. Thus, Xu Qing left with Qiao Yanhui without looking back.

Before Qiao Yanhui left, he looked at Yi Chulin, who was motionless on the bed, and a cold look flashed in his eyes. He hoped that Yi Chulin had really given up. At the very least, he shouldn’t continue to disturb Xu Qing.

Over the past few days, Xu Qing had been lying in bed recuperating in satisfaction. However, Ao Heng was about to go crazy because all the doctors said that he wouldn’t live for more than four months.

What did four months mean? In other words, he could only serve as the emperor for another four months. Ao Heng was about to go crazy. He killed many doctors in one go.

This made the people in the capital panic because many of the doctors around them had disappeared. When they were found, they were already corpses. However, no one knew why they died. How did they die? Many doctors were so frightened that they hid at home and didn’t dare to go out…

After Qiao Yanhui listened to his subordinate’s report aloofly, he asked Ao Jie to handle this matter. After all, if Ao Jie wanted to become the heir to the throne, he still needed more training.

Ao Jie naturally knew the cause of this matter, but he had no pity for Ao Heng.

Ao Heng had the intention of dragging everyone down with him. It was only when Lin Shu came that Ao Heng regained a trace of rationality. Perhaps since he was about to die, he was starting to feel sorry for his wife, He doted on Lin Shu very much those few days. Lin Shu leaned into Ao Heng’s arms, and ruthlessness flashed in her eyes.

When Qiao Yanhui heard his subordinate’s report, the emotions in his eyes were unreadable. Then, he suddenly stood up and walked towards Uncle Yu’s room.

At this moment, Uncle Yu was sighing in his room. He glanced at the door frequently, as if he was waiting for someone to come.

“You knew I would come.” Qiao Yanhui’s words were affirmative, not a question.

Uncle Yu didn’t say anything because he had seen everything that had happened recently. He had long known that such a day would come. There were some things that had to be said sooner or later.

Uncle Yu looked at Qiao Yanhui with relief, heartache, and confusion. It was as if he was looking at another person through him.

“Things have been chaotic recently. I guess you probably already know something… I’ll tell you. Your mother wasn’t a child of the Qiao family. She was the future heir of a secret family. Because she had never had freedom and happiness since she was born, receiving the love of her family was even more extravagant to her. I was your mother’s guardian. I watched her grow up and saw how lonely and helpless she was. My heart ached for her. I don’t have any children of my own in my life, but to be honest, I’ve long treated your mother as my daughter.”

As Uncle Yu spoke, his eyes revealed resentment. He resented that family for being so cold to Qiao Jiqing.

“With your mother’s identity, her family had already arranged all her future pathways before she was even born, including her husband. I knew about her unwillingness and her desires, so when your mother wanted to escape from the family, I helped her, but I was seriously injured because of it. My martial strength was no longer as good as before, but I didn’t regret it. Later on, we came all the way to the capital and met Old Madam Qiao, who had lost her beloved daughter, at Huashan Temple. One missed her daughter, and the other yearned for family love. Perhaps it was fate. Your mother became Qiao Jiqing from Ji Qing. Perhaps it was because of their love for their deceased daughter, but the Qiao family really treated her very well. Unfortunately, a few years later, the Qiao family’s old couple passed away one after another.”
