CHAPTER XXIII

Hearing that Xiyan was coming, Chaoyan was very happy. She put down the book in her hand and waited in the antechamber. Seeing his wife's impatience, Lei Yao smiled and shook his head.

"Sit down, she's not here that soon. He put his arm on Chao Yan's shoulders and asked her to sit down on the chair next to her. My wife has been talking about it for a while, saying that she hasn't seen her for a while. Lei Yao had never seen Xiyan, and he often heard that Chaoyan was a sister, and he was also a little curious.

She came in through the door in the early morning sun, her steps were light, she was wearing a baby pink shirt, rolling silver edges, like a flower swaying in the morning light, Lei Yao's eyes followed her unconsciously, and when she walked to the front hall, Chao Yan, who had been waiting in front of the door, immediately greeted her.

"Sister. Seeing Lei Yao standing aside, Xiyan smiled and said, "Hello Prince Gong." ”

She and Chaoyan are similar in size, but their looks are different. With a slightly round face, porcelain-white skin, a small nose, and heroic eyebrows, there is a pair of longing and shining Danfeng eyes, full red lips, and hair like clouds, revealing unbridled beauty all over the body. Chaoyan is a willow-like woman, and I see pity.

Lei Yao smiled and said to Chao Yan considerately: "Go back to the inner hall and sit." ”

Xiyan saw Lei Yao's care and thoughtfulness with her own eyes, and her heart was warm. It's fitting that they're standing together.

"Congratulations both. Xiyan said happily.

"You know everything?" Chao Yan asked shyly. "News is really fast. Lei Yao on the side held her hand.

"Sister should take good care of it and have a few more. She said mischievously.

"You, why are you still like this. Chaoyan became even more shy.

"It is to have more children, so that the children will not be lonely. Lei Yao also joked beside him. Xi Yan's tone of voice was very familiar, had he ever seen it? This fleeting thought was quickly denied by Lei Yao. She is Chaoyan's younger sister, so naturally she is somewhat similar to Chaoyan, and she actually remembered it in a cranky way.

Xiyan noticed Lei Yao's distraction, so he said, "Sister, I have something I want to talk to you about alone. ”

"You ......" Chaoyan looked at her husband next to her.

Lei Yao smiled and said, "It turned out that he was going to drive me away, okay, I'm leaving, you guys have a good chat." He stood up, helped Chao Yan straighten the cushion behind him before going out, and closed the door with him.

"Don't look, the people are already out. "Xiyan really doesn't understand, she is a rare guest, but my sister's eyes have always followed Lei Yao.

"Don't be naughty. Chao Yan smiled embarrassedly.

"Can't get enough of it every day?" Xiyan saw a red cloud flying on Chaoyan's face.

"By the way, sister, this one will be given to you first. Xi Yan said as he took out a bag from his body and handed it to Chao Yan.

"What?" Chao Yan took it and opened it to see that it was some jewelry. "What are you giving me all this for?"

"You put it away first. Xiyan urged, "These are worth some money, and they are always useful." ”

"Keep it for yourself. Chaoyan refused to accept it.

"Sister, my father has always been honest, and when you got married, I couldn't accompany you with some valuable ones, Prince Gong's mansion is not short of money now, and when you need to turn over in the future, you don't want the prince to be trapped by these mundane things, right?" Xiyan said patiently, "You have something in your hand, so you can be at peace in your heart." I only have so much now, so I'll give it to you first, and you have to take it. ”

"Xiyan, you ......" Chaoyan heard Xiyan say something serious for the first time, she felt that the sister in front of her was different from before, and the innocent and unscrupulous little girl was gone.

"Don't let the prince know. Xiyan advised.

"And what do you do?"

"Are you still afraid that I will starve in the palace?" Xiyan smiled, "If I don't need it, you can put it away with peace of mind." ”

"How is the king treating you?" Chao Yan looked at his sister.

"Good. "You can't see it?"

"That's good. "Chaoyan wraps up jewelry. How happy can a bird in a cage be, even if it is clothed and fed, knowing that Xiyan will always answer the same way, but she still can't help but ask over and over again.

The sorrow on Chaoyan's face looked in Xiyan's eyes, she took her sister's hand, and asked with a smile, "What delicious food did you prepare for me today?" to divert her sister's attention.
