"Tell me first, is it true that you are leaving to take Ning Ning to see a doctor, or is it false?"

Xiang Yi was trapped on the tea table on the kang, unable to get off, and was only stared at by others.

There was still anger on the man's face, so Xiang Yi had to speak.

"It's true. Ning Ning's night blindness is different from other people's. That's why I asked about the place that specializes in treating her disease."

Tan Ting took a closer look at her and saw that his wife did not mean to lie to him, so he breathed a sigh of relief. .

But he still asked again, "Why did Yizhen go to see Gu Yansheng before that to treat Ning Ning? Does it mean that your husband can't do this, so he still needs his help?"

Xiang Yi didn't want to disobey Ning Ning more and more . The biological mother's wish to tell her life story was not able to pass the test.

She glanced at the difficult man, and the man looked at her, insisting on her answer.

Xiang Yi lowered his voice helplessly.

"Ning Ning's illness is different from other people's. It is a disease passed down by blood, but our family does not have this disease. In fact, she is not the daughter of the Xiang family..."

At this point, she could only treat Ning Ning His life experience and his father's previous instructions were all told.

"...As long as her biological mother doesn't come to take her away, then she will be a child of the Xiang family. I will always keep her a secret, so I thought of asking my adopted brother to help hide her."

Xiang Yi had not thought about how to tell Xiang Ning, but this difficult man asked him first.

She looked at the man and saw a surprised look on his face.

In the past, Tan Ting only thought that Xiang Ning, Xiang Yi and Xiang Yu were not very similar, but he had never met his father-in-law and mother-in-law, so he didn't know what the Xiang family looked like. He never expected that Xiang Yu's twin sister , turned out to be not the Xiang family.

But even Xiang Yi doesn't know the identity of the little girl.

Tan Ting finally knew a little bit of her secret, and felt a little better.

He glanced at her again and said in a muffled voice.

"After all, Yizhen still doesn't believe me. Could it be that I would tell others? You only asked Gu Yansheng to handle this matter."

Of course, Xiang Yi went to his adopted brother for more than just this matter.

She couldn't help but look at Tan Ting and didn't respond to his words, but just asked him softly.

"What did uncle do when he went to Lin's house today?"

Tan Ting didn't expect her to ask about it.

He said bluntly, "I'm going to ask if Yizhen has promised her aunt."

Xiang Yi was speechless for a moment after hearing his answer, but he felt a little relieved.

She thought with half-lidded eyes.

Seeing her like this, Tan Ting tightened his arms around her, only forcing her to get closer to him.

"Yizhen hasn't made it clear yet why she's only looking for him and not me."

He pressed closer, as if trapping her in his arms, forcing her to tell him everything.

Xiang Yi was left helpless by him, so he could only say something lower and lower.

"There is another matter that I wanted to tell the uncle, but it has not been verified yet, so I asked the elder brother to find out for me first and then tell the uncle."

Tan Ting opened her eyes wide. She asked Gu Yansheng for something else . .

Seeing that he was looking at her intently again, Xiang Yi sighed, turned around and wanted to take out the broken letter to show him, but was trapped by him and couldn't get out.

"Uncle, let me down first. I will explain everything clearly to him."

She straightened her voice. Tan Ting looked at his wife for a long time, and then he had to take her off the tea table.

Xiang Yi finally got out of his sleep, walked to the cabinet beside the bed, took out the broken letter from an old book, and gave it to Tan Ting.

"What is this?"

"Read it for yourself, uncle."

Tan Ting opened the letter neatly and read it again, his face darkened, and his eyes fell on the mark.

"Have you seen this seal before?"

Tan Ting shook his head, "Not really."

But when he looked at the imprint that was difficult to distinguish, he had a bad premonition for some reason, so he asked Xiang Yi.

"Can Yizhen identify it?"

Xiang Yi nodded slowly, touched the mark with his fingertips, and whispered three words.

"Chang, Ming, Lin."

After the words fell, Tan Ting's hand holding the broken letter froze there and did not move for a long time.

The chirping of birds outside briefly disappeared, and the atmosphere in the room was almost stagnant.

Xiang Yi said nothing, waiting for Tan Ting's response.

After a while, Tan Ting's frozen hands moved. He looked at the letter again and whispered.

"It does look like Uncle Lin's handwriting..."

He said this. Xiang Yi looked over and heard him ask another question.

"Where did Yizhen get this letter?"

If this letter really came from the Lin family, then it was also written to someone who conspired together.

So who is going to leak this?

Xiang Yi said he didn't know, "This letter was delivered to me a few days ago, and the person who sent it left."

Tan Ting raised his eyebrows.

There was a brief silence between the two.

Xiang Yi didn't tell him directly, so he felt that it was the family of his uncle and aunt that he had always trusted.

He had known the Lin family for several years, and had only been married to her for a few years...

At this time, she said that she was still a little unsure, but she saw him reach out and hold her hand after a moment of silence. .

"I understand."

He said no more, but Xiang Yi received a response beyond words from the strength of his palm.

She was in a daze for some reason, and her eyes fell on him.

He seemed a little different than she imagined.

But Tan Ting seemed to have read through her thoughts. He held her hand in his palm and said something light and heavy.

"Yizhen needs to remember that we are husband and wife."

A gust of wind blew outside the window, making the lush old branches and leaves in the courtyard rustle.

Tan Ting finally understood why his wife had been restless these days. In addition to what was revealed in the letter that surprised her, the purpose of the person who sent the letter also had to be thought-provoking.

But since I sent the letter, there can be no follow-up. I just want to see their reaction first.

In this case, it's not that he can't think of a way to lure this person out...

Tan Ting quickly thought about it.

But when he looked at his wife, he found that her hands were clasped together, and her eyes were different from before, and they dropped a little lower.

Before he could ask what was wrong, she had already spoken.

"There is one more thing, I think, I have to tell the uncle."

Different from the helplessness and hesitation of the two things just now, she looked a little lonely at this time. Tan Ting's eyelids twitched a few times and pulled her to him. Come.

"Say."

Xiang Yi slowly exhaled, looked at Tan Ting, and slightly raised the corners of his mouth.

"The uncle asked me why I agreed to Mrs. Lin. In fact, it was not because Mrs. Lin wanted me to leave, but because I always felt that the marriage between me and the uncle really couldn't last long. In addition to the constant troubles caused by the common people and the common people. , there is another reason."

It was rare for Tan Ting to hear her speak so much on her own initiative, but she felt a little panicked in her faint smile.

"What?"

she told him.

"I have uterine cold syndrome, which has not improved so far. I'm afraid it will be difficult to have children."

Tan Ting's ears rang, but when he saw the lowered eyes of the person in front of him, his heart suddenly hurt.

It turned out to be like this, it turned out to be like this...

He hugged his wife's thin body into his arms.

Xiang Yi looked up in surprise and saw his frozen eyes.

"So what? So what? We can ask the imperial doctor in the palace to see a doctor. If we are really not destined to have children, let Tan Jian have a few more and adopt them into our lap..."

Xiang Yi She became startled at his words.

But Tan Ting couldn't help but think of how he always pestered her, telling her about wanting an heir, and asking for the children's clothes from Li Chengyun's family.

During those times, when she heard what he said and saw the little clothes, what should she think in her heart...

Tan Ting hugged the person in her arms tightly, and when she saw her red eyes, her heart throbbed. .

He reached out and held her face, and she dodged it slightly, but not entirely.

Xiang Yi said sideways.

"Can our marriage really last?"

After three years of indifference in their first marriage, there were still so many things standing between them.

The marriage that their fathers had concluded for them seemed like fragile ice.

Xiang Yi asked the deepest question in his heart. He couldn't tell whether he asked Tan Ting, himself, or the two fathers who were watching them in the sky.

Xiang Yi didn't know the answer, and her parents wouldn't tell her, but the man who held her tightly in his arms spoke.

"Yes! Why not? It must be possible!"

The man's tone was unusually firm, and Xiang Yi's originally dazed mind was stabilized by his words.

Xiang Yi felt his heart beat faster.

The man's arms were strong and strong, and he immediately started talking about these three things.

"Yizhen doesn't have to ask others to help with Ningning's matter. I'll handle it. I won't let anyone find out about it."

Xiang Yi looked over and said the second thing.

"I can investigate the matter between father-in-law and the Lin family with Gu Yansheng. I think he has many other methods."

The Tan family and the Lin family have been close over the years. He really needs Gu Yansheng's methods to make up for the inconvenience of the Tan family. part.

But as he spoke, he glanced at his wife again.

"It's just that if Yizhen wants to see him, she has to come with me."

He was extremely wary of his adopted brother. Xiang Yi was speechless for a few moments and nodded in agreement.

Seeing that his wife agreed without saying anything, Tan Ting calmed down, then softened his voice and told her the third thing.

"Yizhen shouldn't worry too much about the issue of heirs. First of all, you and I have only been married for less than four years. The first three years were wasted. Now, secondly, even if we don't have any heirs, Tan Jian still has them. He studies No, how about having more children?"

Xiang Yi didn't know what the second master would think after hearing his elder brother's words, but his words inexplicably soothed his tense heart.

I heard him say again, "No matter how good the doctors in Beijing are, they are not as good as the imperial doctors from the Imperial Hospital. Tomorrow I will invite an imperial physician to come to my home and take care of you carefully."

Xiang Yi told him all three things, and he He also answered all three things.

No one disturbed, and no more trouble was caused.

This is the first time that the couple, who have been married for more than three years, have spoken out so candidly.

The old trees in the courtyard attracted seven or eight chirping birds, making the branches noisy.

After everything was settled between the couple, the room became quiet.

Xiang Yi was held in someone's arms. She felt that such a gesture was really inappropriate and turned around to try to get out, but he refused and instead held her tighter.

When he exerted force, the force fell right on her wrist.

Xiang Yi's wrist suddenly hurt and he groaned.

Tan Ting was stunned for a moment, then looked down and saw that her thin wrist was red and purple. It happened to be the place where he held her angrily when she was about to return the jade to him.

He couldn't tell how much force he used at that time, but looking at it now, he might have accidentally used too much force.

"Does it hurt you?"

Tan Ting immediately let go of his wife. As soon as he spoke, his implicitly tough tone disappeared, and he looked at her red and purple wrists a little nervously.

Xiang Yi's wrists ached.

She couldn't help but remember that he had broken her lip before, and this time he held her wrist so hard.

She turned around and ignored him and walked to the other side.

She walked away without saying a word. Tan Ting was startled for a moment. He watched his wife walk to the basin with her head lowered, and silently washed her red wrists with cold water.

Tan Ting secretly regretted that he had lost his temper for a moment, and now that he saw her like this, he had no choice but to ask.

"Would you like someone to bring some well water?"

he asked. Seeing that his wife was still lowering her head to wash her wrists, she still said nothing.

There was only the sound of water in the room, and there was no sound at all.

Someone finally panicked, looked at his wife's side face, and said something in a dull voice.

"It was my fault just now, Yizhen, please don't be angry with me, okay?"

He said this, but heard his wife say four words.

"Xiang Yi doesn't dare."

It's over...

Tan Ting was at a loss when he heard these four words.

Just at this time, the maid came over and announced that Xiang Ning and Yang Zhen were here. They wanted to go fishing in the back garden and asked Xiang Yi if they wanted to go for fun together.

As soon as the maid finished communicating, Tan Ting called his wife softly.

"The sun is quite bright, Yizhen, please don't go..."

As soon as he finished speaking, his wife asked him in turn.

"Master, are you going to force me to stay in the room?"

Tan Tingwan didn't mean that. He just saw that she was angry with him and wanted to talk to her again.

He said no, "It's just too hot today..."

But his wife just said that.

"Since it's not the case, then I'm leaving."

After saying that, he walked out the door.

Tan Ting didn't know what else to say, he pinched his eyebrows and had a headache.

However, Xiang Yi's peripheral vision fell lightly on the person behind him. Seeing him pinching his brows in distress, the corner of his mouth twitched inexplicably, and when he looked over, he quickly withdrew his gaze.
