The Virtuous Wife

Chapter 2 Planting a Seed

Su Jing put down the cup in her hand, looked up, and saw a man wearing a jade crown and a blue dress walking towards her. The man was about thirty years old, 1.8 meters tall, handsome, and elegant! Su Jing guessed that this man should be the father of this body, the Lord Hou in their mouths! Su Jing pretended to stand up and salute her father, but was stopped by Su Wei: "Yiyi, tell Daddy, but where else do you feel uncomfortable? Does your head still hurt? Are there any other injuries?" Su Jing heard that he was concerned about her health in his words, and knew that he really cared about this daughter. Su Jing remembered that in her previous life, she had parents, but they were taken away by force, and she did not experience the feeling of being a child and being loved. Now, seeing this "father" caring about her so much, she couldn't help but feel sad and shed tears. This man is Pingnan Hou, named Su Wei. Three days ago, when he heard that his daughter had fallen from the rockery, he was so anxious that he almost tied up all the imperial doctors in the palace. Now that he saw that his daughter finally woke up, he was relieved.

Su Wei saw his daughter crying and thought that her head hurt again. He helped her to lie down slowly, and then turned to the servants and said, "Quickly take my name card and ask the imperial doctor to come!" After that, he looked at his daughter again and said softly, "Yiyi, but your head hurts again. Don't cry. We will take medicine and it will stop hurting in a while. Be good!"

Su Jingyi's tears fell even harder. She cried and said, "Daddy, I don't feel any pain. Daddy, don't leave Yiyi. You can't leave Yiyi!"

Su Wei looked at the blood on the gauze on his daughter's head. Her face was as pale as frost, her lips were bloodless, and she cried like a tearful person, but she still said that it didn't hurt. A sense of guilt arose in his heart. He was too negligent. His wife was not around to take care of her. His daughter looked much thinner. I don't know how this Bai family took care of her? He actually took care of his daughter like this!

Thinking of this, Su Wei felt even more distressed about his daughter, and he began to blame his concubine Bai. This Bai was the niece of Su Wei's mother's family, and she insisted on marrying him as a concubine. Back then, Su Wei and his wife Jiang were very affectionate. Jiang gave birth to two legitimate sons for him in succession. He had never thought of taking a concubine, but he didn't want to disobey his mother, so he reluctantly agreed. Because of this, his wife quarreled with him for several months and didn't talk.

Su Jing saw that Su Wei's face was unhappy. Could there be any hidden reason for his injury? Su Jingyi thought for a moment and came up with an idea. She held Su Wei's sleeves tightly with both hands and refused to let go, and she was still yelling for her daddy to hold her!

This daughter is Su Wei's youngest child. Su Wei is getting older now, and he likes children more and more. Now seeing his little daughter acting coquettishly to him, the lines on his face can't help but soften a little.

Su Wei gently picked up his daughter by the waist and let her sit on his lap. His movements were extremely gentle, fearing that he would hurt her by accident. But he said, "You are such a big child, and you still want your daddy to hold you. Are you ashamed?"

Su Jing smiled sweetly and said, "No shame, no shame. No matter how old Yiyi is, she is still your daughter. It is natural for your daddy to hold his daughter!" After that, she buried her face in Su Wei's arms.

Su Jing only knew that the owner of this body was called Yiyi, and she didn't know anything else. She hoped that all this was real, not a dream! Having the love of her father, people who care about her, and the warmth of home, this is what she has always wanted most. Su Jing couldn't help thinking selfishly, go well, don't come back, I will live well for you, and I will take good care of your family for you!

At this time, Su Wei heard his daughter's sweet voice and looked at her cute appearance. He felt a sense of pride and satisfaction as a father in his heart. This feeling is very strange, and he can't tell how many years he hasn't felt this way.

As the two were talking, Haitang came in with medicine. Nanny He took the medicine and wanted to feed it to Su Jingyi. Su Jingyi shook her head and said, "Don't drink it, it's too bitter!" Nanny He looked at Su Wei in embarrassment. Su Wei smiled and shook his head and said, "Silly child, how can you get better without taking the medicine?" As he said that, he let Su Jingyi sit sideways on his lap and took the medicine from Nanny He. He scooped a small spoonful, blew it gently to his mouth, and then brought it to her mouth, coaxing her softly, "Okay, it's not hot, good boy! Yiyi is the most obedient." Jingyi watched him blow the medicine carefully and coax her softly like this, and she felt extremely happy. Jingyi's eyes were red, she drank the medicine, and choked up and said, "From now on, Yiyi will have daddy feed her medicine, okay?" Su Wei's heart was clenched, and he nodded when he saw his daughter's moved and expectant look. In this way, Jingyi soon drank a bowl of medicine. Su Wei reached out and took a candied fruit and put it into his daughter's mouth. Jingyi smiled with satisfaction, "So sweet!"

At this time, there was another sound of footsteps outside. It was the old marquis and the old lady.

The old marquis asked with concern: "Finally woke up, but is there anything else that is uncomfortable?"

Jingyi whispered: "It's okay, it's Yiyi who is not well, and grandfather is worried."

The old marquis was about to speak, and the old lady said: "It's good that you woke up. Don't climb so high in the future. A girl should also look like a girl!"

Su Wei's face was a little ugly, and Su Jingzi also heard that this was the old lady saying that everything was her fault. If she hadn't climbed so high, how could she fall down?

Jingyi lowered her head and admitted her fault like a good baby: "Yes, it's Yiyi's fault. Yiyi shouldn't climb the rockery with her sister. I will never dare to do it again."

The old lady looked unfriendly when she heard it. When the old marquis and Su Wei heard it, their faces changed. The two looked at each other and understood each other. Su Wei asked softly, "Yiyi, why did you think of climbing the rockery when you were fine? But it was your sister who suggested going?"

Jingyi understood that her father was a little suspicious. Jingyi still lowered her head and spoke even more quietly. "Dad, don't ask, it's all Yiyi's fault."

Su Wei noticed that when his daughter said this, her hands were tightly grasping the lapels on her chest, and her whole body was trembling slightly. Su Wei had been in the officialdom for more than ten years and had always observed people and things in detail. It was obvious that Yiyi was a little scared. In her own home, Yiyi was the eldest daughter, what was she afraid of?

Su Wei seemed to think of something, and his eyes became a little gloomy. He looked up at the old Houye and saw that the old Houye was also looking at Yiyi, and he obviously noticed that something was wrong with her.

At this time, there was a sound of footsteps outside, and soon someone opened the curtain, and a woman came in, followed by a little girl about ten years old.

Su Jingyi looked unhappy. This was the Bai family that Nanny He and the others had mentioned. When she thought that she had snatched her father away, Su Jingyi lowered her head very low, shrank her whole body, buried her face in Su Wei's chest, and held his clothes tighter with both hands.

Su Wei frowned. He obviously felt that something was wrong with his daughter. He could even feel that the palms of her hands that were tightly holding his clothes were sweating. Why was his daughter so nervous? No, she should be afraid. How could her legitimate daughter be so scared and nervous when she saw her concubines and concubines?

Su Jing never thought that she just didn't want the hard-earned father's love to be snatched away by others, and she didn't have any other intentions. But her actions made Su Wei and the old Houye suspicious. It was really an unintentional success!

Su Jing would never have thought that on the first day she came to this world, she accidentally planted a seed of suspicion of the Bai family mother and daughter in her father and grandfather's hearts!
