Chapter 282
"I just left for a while and your hands are so cold. Come here and warm you up."
Xie Yanqiu's face turned red for a moment. She was a little embarrassed to show such affection in front of others in broad daylight.
"Don't be like this, there are still people here."
She wanted to let go of her hand without leaving any trace, but Zhou Qipian didn't do what she wanted.
"Old husband and wife, why are you shy?"
After saying that, he took off his coat and put it on Xie Yanqiu.
The two of them were just showing off their affection and didn't notice the woman beside them with her fingers curled up. Xie Qing felt sour in his heart, always feeling that Zhou Qi was acting for him.
Obviously, no matter how annoying the two of them are, they would only pay attention to it at home and in public places, but today Zhou Qi made it clear that he wanted to establish his role as a doting wife in public places.
The more Xie Qing thought about it, the angrier she became. The two people in front of her were very annoying in her eyes.
"Aunt Yanqiu, I want to eat oranges..."
Niu Niu's timid voice sounded from behind, and Xie Yanqiu came to his senses. He was still in the ward.
He quickly turned around and saw Niu Niu looking at him timidly. Due to the fever, the edges of the girl's lips were dry and cracked.
He had just put on some flesh, but he fell ill again. His face was sallow and even a little shriveled.
Xie Yanqiu didn't think much about it and felt a little sorry for Niu Niu.
"Niuniu, aunt will peel oranges for you right now."
As she spoke, she picked up the orange on hand and peeled it for Niu Niu.
Xie Qing stood nearby. Although she was Niu Niu's mother, she always felt that she was an outsider at this time. Xie Yanqiu, Zhou Qi and Niu Niu were the real family.
But Niu Niu's timid eyes glanced at her secretly, which made her have another suspicion.
Niu Niu just noticed the jealousy in her mood and stopped Zhou Qi and Xie Yanqiu's show of affection.
Thinking of this, the woman secretly suppressed the resentment that just surged into her heart.
Xie Yanqiu carefully picked out all the white veins on the orange before handing the orange petals to Niu Niu.
"Qingqing, did the doctor tell you how Niuniu's condition is?"
"The doctor said it's okay. If you persist until tomorrow without recurring fever, you can be discharged."
Xie Qing's expression was gloomy, and even Xie Yanqiu could tell that she was a little absent-minded.
"Ah."
Because of Niuniu's illness, the Zhou family was deserted for two days.
Xie Yanqiu and Han Shuna wanted to go to the hospital to help take care of Niu Niu, but they were rejected by Xie Qing. She said that they could do it as long as she was in the hospital.
It's winter now, a period when colds and fevers are most common, so it's better for Xie Yanqiu and Han Shuna not to come to the hospital.
Considering that she was already five months pregnant, Xie Yanqiu agreed despite feeling sorry for Niu Niu.
Two days passed, and Niuniu's condition finally stabilized and she met the discharge standards.
Early in the morning, Zhou Qi went to the hospital to go through the discharge procedures for Niu Niu, and arranged for Xiao Wang to take Niu Niu and Xie Qing home.
The snow on the road is getting deeper and deeper, and children have built many snowmen on the roadside.
Sitting by the car window, Niu Niu saw the snowman slowly retreating outside and screamed excitedly: "Uncle Zhou! Snowman! There is a snowman!"
Zhou Qi looked at the excited and screaming child in the rearview mirror with fond eyes: "Niuniu also likes to make snowmen?"
"like!"
"Go home soon, and uncle will pile one for you!"
"it is good!"
Zhou Qi withdrew his gaze and said no more.
Xie Qing, who was sitting next to Niu Niu, silently observed Zhou Qi's reaction when he spoke in the rearview mirror, and felt happy!
She suddenly realized that as long as Niu Niu was around, she would definitely have a chance!
****
The car drove all the way downstairs. Zhou Qi got out of the car first and opened the door for Niu Niu.
Before Xie Qing could get out of the car, Zhou Qi took Niuniu out of the car and went upstairs.
Xie Qing's expression was dark, and he always felt that the man was deliberately avoiding him.
"Zhou Qi, wait for me."
Zhou Qi didn't pause. Xie Qing was really anxious this time and stepped forward to block the stairs.
"Zhou Qi, do you have any objections to me?"
"No."
Zhou Qi didn't even put his eyes on Xie Qing's body, which made the already suspicious woman even more unhappy.
"You just have a problem with me, otherwise why have you been avoiding me!"
Zhou Qi frowned fiercely and said in an extremely dissatisfied tone: "Xie Qing, get out of the way, I don't want to make trouble with you here."
"Making trouble? You actually think I'm making trouble?" Xie Qingyao laughed angrily.
She is no quieter than Xie Yanqiu before.
In the past, Xie Yanqiu would come over and slap any dog that was passing by, so where was she now?
"Xie Qing, get out of the way!"
"No! If you don't tell me clearly today, I won't let you go!"
Xie Qing is completely stubborn. Since the man thinks she is making trouble, she will show it to Zhou Qi!Anyway, there were a lot of people coming and going on the stairs. She wanted to see if Zhou Qi wanted to estimate his identity as the company commander!
The woman was still messing around, and Zhou Qi was still holding Niu Niu.
Niu Niu looked at the overbearing Xie Qing, and remembered that she had been secretly tortured by her mother in the past few days, and her body was shaking uncontrollably.
"Niuniu, what's wrong with you?"
Zhou Qi noticed that Niu Niu was trembling all over, thinking that Niu Niu had suffered from cold and fever again along the way, and suddenly felt anxious.
"Xie Qing, get out of the way, I'll go home and take Niu Niu's temperature!"
"No! Zhou Qi! Please explain to me today why you have been avoiding me these past few days, and I will let you go!"
Zhou Qi: “…………”
He seriously suspected that the Xie Qing in front of him was possessed by the former Xie Yanqiu!
"What are you doing?"
The voice that suddenly reached the ears of the three people was the neighbor upstairs.
At this time, I was going downstairs to buy groceries. As soon as I came downstairs, I saw a few people tugging at the stairs. When I got closer, I realized it was Zhou Qi and Xie Qing, who had been living in their house for the past few days.
For a moment, looking at the expressions of the three people, I suddenly felt that there must be gossip among them!
Zhou Qi looked over in search of the voice, his heart skipping a beat.
The person who spoke was none other than Aunt Zhang who was on the same floor as them.
When I was young, I worked in the neighborhood committee and was an obsessed gossip!
She even knows who in the neighborhood is eating enough at home!
In her early years, because of her expertise, she had always been the director of the neighborhood committee. No matter whose family had a problem, no matter where it was, she was always the first to know.
As long as she knows about it, within a long time, everyone in the neighborhood will know about it.
Zhou Qi, who had seen Aunt Zhang's power, felt his heart skip a beat. Looking at Aunt Zhang's eyes, he knew that she had misunderstood the relationship between the two...
There was a moment of panic, "Aunt Zhang, I have to go buy groceries."
Aunt Zhang lifted the vegetable basket in her hand, with a shrewd look in her eyes: "Yes. Isn't it snowing now? I haven't gone shopping for several days, and I have almost enough food at home. I'm thinking about it. Buy a Chinese cabbage from the vegetable market and stew it at night!"
While Aunt Zhang was speaking, her eyes kept looking up and down Xie Qing.
The way this woman looks at Zhou Qi is wrong...
"Comrade, you must be the divorced woman who lives in Zhou's house recently..."
