After Lu Yunxi gave birth, Si Tingyan arranged for her to live in the only inn in Huyangtan.

During the day, Lu Yunxi took care of the child by himself and did not allow anyone to interfere.

Others only thought that Lu Yunxi was frightened and gave birth, and she would inevitably regard this child as a little more important than her own life, which was normal.

In the evening, as soon as Si Tingyan returned to the inn, he let her rest and take care of the child for the night.

After tossing like this for three or four days, Red Aya finally came.

As soon as she entered the house, she pounced on the little master, and while picking up the little master, she said to Lu Yunxi, "The master knows that Miss has given birth, and he is as happy as something." Mrs. Fang was angry for the past two days, and beat all the girls in the courtyard. ”

As she spoke, she lifted the little master's quilt and gently slid her fingers twice around the little master's neck.

The child slowly opened his eyes.

Hong Aya glanced at it, then raised her head in surprise and looked at Lu Yunxi.

"Miss, this ......"

Lu Yunxi hurriedly made a silent gesture to her.

She got up and closed the door, pulled Hong Aya to the inner room, glanced at the child in her arms, and said in a deep voice, "Hong Aya, Tingyan called you here because of this child's different pupils." At the moment, none of us can be trusted, you have followed me for many years, and the only person I can trust is you. ”

Hong Aya was still surprised, and after a while, she reacted, nodded blankly, and lowered her voice, "Miss, the little master was born with different pupils, which is a bad omen in the eyes of everyone in the capital. Now, this merman is so fierce again, will the little young master ......?"

Hong Aya held back the second half of her sentence and looked at Lu Yunxi worriedly.

These days, Lu Yunxi has also inquired about a lot of children with different pupils.

Indeed, the whole capital believes that the abnormal pupil is a bad omen.

I heard that during the reign of the first emperor, there was also a child with different pupils.

As soon as the child landed, he scared the midwife half to death, so the news of his heterogeneous pupils soon spread in the capital.

What's more, even remembering that the child's mother's temperament had changed greatly in the early years, it was also a bad omen.

Later, before the full moon was born, the boy was strangled in the cradle by his father's own hands, and that was not the end.

The father even set up a fire and threw the child into the blazing fire for three or four hours.

It is said that the onlookers even heard the child's terrible cry.

Such rumors, if they were put in the past, would be nothing more than a strange thing for Lu Yunxi, and at most they would only condemn this father for being too ruthless.

But now, she gave birth to a son with different pupils, and her heart is also uneasy.

Naturally, Si Tingyan is not such a vicious person, but if others know about this child's abnormal pupils, how can he have a place to live?

Seeing that Lu Yunxi didn't answer for a long time, Hong Aya wanted to comfort her, and said softly, "Miss, just rest assured, our aunt has superb medical skills, and he will definitely be able to diagnose what disease the little young master is suffering from." ”

Lu Yunxi could only smile bitterly twice and nodded slightly.

"Now that you're here, this kid finally has someone to share with me. He is obedient, in addition to eating and drinking, he sleeps all day long, and it is easy to bring it up. There is only one thing, you must not let anyone else see the child's eyes. ”

Hong Aya nodded solemnly and glanced at the child in her arms, "Miss just rest assured." ”

Nighttime.

Si Tingyan returned to the inn, saw that Hongyan was coaxing the child to sleep, and glanced at Lu Yunxi.

Lu Yunxi nodded at him, and he knew that Lu Yunxi must have explained the child's affairs one by one, and he didn't say anything more.

"The merman has reappeared. ”

Si Tingyan took a deep breath, walked into the room, sat at the table, poured a cup of tea, and said to Lu Yunxi.

Lu Yunxi remembered the appearance of the shark man she saw that day, her nerves suddenly tensed, stared at Si Tingyan, and asked cautiously, "Is there any harm this time?"

Si Tingyan shook his head slightly.

"It's just that the imperial court has issued a death order, and no matter what, it will hunt and kill the merman. The capital sent another team of soldiers, and some imperial doctors came. Starting tomorrow, I will live on the tidal flats with the army, and I will not be able to return. ”

Lu Yunxi couldn't help but 'chuckle' in her heart, and looked at Si Tingyan worriedly.

How could Si Tingyan not understand what she was thinking about?

He gently held Lu Yunxi's hand, patted the back of her hand, and said in a low voice, "Hong Aya is here to accompany you, I am at ease." Even on the mudflats, I'm just a doctor with the army, and I don't fight with the mermaids. You can rest assured. ”

Lu Yunxi let out a long sigh and nodded reluctantly.

Si Tingyan talked to Lu Yunxi for a while, and then fell asleep.

These days, he has to be busy with the merman's affairs during the day, and he has to take care of the children at night, and his energy has long been overdrawn. I finally had a good night's sleep today, and after a while, I heard him breathe evenly.

Strange to say, this Si Tingyan fell asleep soundly, and the child even yawned, and fell into a deep sleep, and did not make trouble all night.

Following.

Si Tingyan got up early in the morning and left, and was stationed on the beach with a group of soldiers and imperial doctors who were heading to the beach.

Many people in Huyangtan have already moved out, leaving all the things they can't take with them at home.

The tidal flats were lively all day.

No one knows when the merman will make a comeback, and until then, he can only be fully prepared.

Under the leadership of the men leading the army, the people set up a fire on the beach, and the blazing light of the fire reflected the sky in a bright red color.

Lu Yunxi stood on the second floor of the inn, and he could vaguely see the fire soaring into the sky.

She panicked in her heart, and vaguely seemed to see the father of the son of the different pupil set up a fire in the courtyard and threw the child into the fire alive.

"Miss. ”

Seeing her standing on one side, Hongya was stunned and called in a low voice.

Lu Yunxi woke up like a dream, turned around and entered the house, and told Hong Aya to close the door.

Outside the house, the fire soared into the sky, enveloping the entire poplar beach in a yellow light.

The fire was still some distance from the inn, but Lu Yunxi was in the dark, and he always felt that the firelight seemed to be right in front of him, as if he could already feel the feeling of the hot flames rushing towards his cheeks.

"Miss. ”

Seeing Lu Yunxi's abnormal expression, Hong Aya called her name in a low voice.

Lu Yunxi gave Hong Aya an indifferent look and shook her head slightly, wanting to reassure her.

As everyone knows, the more Lu Yunxi is like this, the more worried Hong Aya's heart is.

"You should take the baby and rest early. ”

Lu Yunxi admonished.

Red Aya agreed, and left with the child in her arms.
