Chapter 48: Wind and Rain

After a while, Jiang Jiang stopped coughing.

"Don't bother, I'm fine." Lying on the bed, Jiang Jiang forced a smile on the corner of his mouth, put one hand on Qiang Huai's wrist, and said to Qiang Huai.

Jiang Jiang's face was pale as hell, and the smile he was forcing looked so weird.

But Qiang Huai cried out of heartache.

Qiang Huai put away the blood-stained handkerchief and gently patted the back of Jiang Jiang's hand. His cautious movements were so gentle that he was afraid of breaking it. "Don't talk anymore. Sleep well. It won't hurt when you wake up. I'll go get your parents to accompany you. Don't be afraid. I'll take care of everything. Be good and go to sleep." He coaxed Jiang Jiang gently.

At this time, both of them knew that Jiang Jiang's body was already exhausted.

It’s just that Qiang Huai didn’t dare to believe it, or rather, he didn’t want to admit it…

Rather than speaking those words to Jiang Jiang to comfort her, it was more like Qiang Huai was speaking them to himself.

Qiang Huai escaped from the room and ran into the secret room in the study.

Send a housekeeper to bring Jiang Jiang's parents over. Perhaps Jiang Jiang will feel better, and if she is in a better mood, her illness will also be cured.

After arranging everything, Qiang Huai curled up in a chair in the secret room and cried loudly, just like when he was a child.

He didn't dare tell anyone after being beaten and he had no friends. After Jiang Jiang applied medicine and bandaged him, he hid under the quilt and cried.

He was so helpless.

The only harbor is about to collapse...

He is always busy.

Too busy to find out her preferences.

I don’t know what she likes to eat or what she likes to do.

I don't know why she has a special liking for wontons, I don't know why she always stares at the golden chrysanthemum and silver hairpin, I don't know why she always knows everything about him and silently prepares the medicine box.

I don’t know, he knows nothing.

He seemed to have never known anything about her.

He only knew that he was the one who made her so miserable.

He originally wanted to protect her from the wind and rain, but in the end he found out that he was the one who brought both the wind and rain.

Jiang Jiang's parents came to pick her up soon.

They had heard that Jiang Jiang was in poor health, but without the prince's order, they dared not act rashly.

After taking a look from afar through the door curtain, the two elders were arranged to live in the yard next to Jiang Jiang.

Live where you can be seen through Jiang Jiang’s window.

In order to reassure the two elders, Qiang Huai asked someone to bring Yin Shuang over.

In addition, Qiang Huai spread the word in the mansion that the two elders should take care of Yin Shuang's full moon, making the two elders so busy that they had no time to take care of Jiang Jiang.

"Qiang Huai, don't be sad. Birth, aging, sickness and death are normal in life. I just died a little early," Jiang Jiang climbed up the window frame and stretched out her hand to pat Qiang Huai who was squatting under the window. She knew Qiang Huai was there.

His body, which looked like a withered skeleton, was pressed against the window frame, which was a bit painful. He didn't have the strength to hold the window if he moved away. He coughed twice and then said, "Qiang Huai, just think of me as going to another world before you to arrange a new home for you. Okay, next time, we will be ordinary people in this life, living in an ordinary house, away from the court. You farm and I weave. Whether we are poor or rich, I am willing to hold your hand and grow old with you. Ahem."

"Hehe, you and I have to accept it. Letting go is also a kind of God's will." Jiang Jiang covered her mouth with a handkerchief to wipe away the coughed blood. Unfortunately, she still couldn't bear it and sat on the bed, her shoulders against the wall, her forehead against the window corner.

With tears in his eyes, he said, "You still have a daughter, Qiang Huai. No matter what, you must promise me to take good care of her and spend more time with her, okay? Don't always leave her alone. It's too lonely. I don't want her to be abandoned like me. Just consider this my last request, Qiang Huai, promise me."

“Tan Jiangjiang!” Qiang Huai cried angrily, and a face covered with tears and snot suddenly appeared in front of Jiang Jiang, “Do you have a heart or not?!”
