Lin House

After tossing all night, Mrs. Lin left after a few more instructions, and before leaving, she still instructed several times to go to bed, cover the quilt, and boil hot water on the stove.

Tao Ziyuan answered several times before Mrs. Lin left with peace of mind, Tao Ziyuan was lying in the hot warm pavilion, and her whole leg was sore.

The body was very tired, but when he remembered what Chen Yan said to the emperor, he couldn't help but hesitate.

Chen Yan, do you like yourself?

Tao Ziyuan felt a little incredible, maybe it was just Chen Yan's means, and besides, the emperor's will had not been completed, maybe Chen Yan would come back and say that the matter would pass.

Tao Ziyuan felt that this possibility was greater, and she fell asleep groggily.

The plague situation in Yundu Province is very serious, many people have been infected in just half a month, and some people have already fallen ill.

When Chen Yan and his party went, it was already half a month after the plague began, and on the twenty-ninth day of the lunar month, there was also news from Yundu Mansion, saying that after the arrival of the people from Fengbo Pavilion, they had preliminarily developed a method to suppress the plague with the local government, and also prescribed a prescription, which could be used as a prevention.

"This is the herb sent by the Tai Hospital in the morning, and every adult's house has it, and the medicine has been prepared. Let the kitchen in the house boil for a while, and each courtyard will do a good job of prevention. I heard that there were already people who had contracted the plague not far from Yandu City. ”

Lord Lin went to Mrs. Lin's room early in the morning and instructed, and even Tao Ziyuan in the room was also instructed to take precautions.

Although Lord Lin usually doesn't smile, but he is still relatively upright, Tao Ziyuan responded with a smile, and accompanied Mrs. Lin to talk for a while, just out of the courtyard gate, a small guy inexplicably bumped into his body.

Cai Que hurriedly supported himself, and the little girl apologized again and again, Tao Zi Yuan clenched the note in his hand, returned to his garden quietly, and took Cai Que out, only then did he open the note and saw the familiar handwriting on it.

Chinese New Year's Eve, Bilin Hall,

The words on it are Chen Yan's, because in five years, she is very familiar with this person's font, and every stroke is deeply imprinted in her mind and heart.

He...... Are you back?

Is it really back?

But why, there is no movement in Yandu City! No one in the Fengbo Pavilion has been informed, and even the little guy has to send a message like this?

He...... Why come back?

Tao Ziyuan thought about it, I don't know why there was some expectation and joy in my heart, looking forward to his return, but I also had a little worry, worried that something was wrong with him.

————

During the day of the twenty-ninth and thirtieth days of the lunar month, Tao Ziyuan was helping Mrs. Lin to be busy with the affairs of the house, gossiping with several young ladies and teasing the children in the house, and the days were also comfortable.

In the evening, the family was together, had a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, and returned to their yards to keep the New Year, Tao Ziyuan sneaked out of the house, naturally let Caique keep an eye on him, not to prevent anyone, but to worry about Mrs. Lin.

Caique swore that he would never be discovered, Tao Ziyuan smiled, slipped out of the house, and went to the Bilin Hall outside.

It stands to reason that the merchants in Yandu City want to go back for the New Year after the holiday, but some people's homes are here, and they can also open their stores on Chinese New Year's Eve and celebrate Chinese New Year's Eve.

Bilintang is like this, more lively than usual, Bilintang on Chinese New Year's Eve, because the guys in the store are all celebrating the festival together, and it is also deserted than usual, because there are many fewer customers.

As soon as Tao Ziyuan entered the door, he was invited to a private room on the second floor by the shopkeeper with a smile, Tao Ziyuan still wondered what was going on, and the shopkeeper smiled meaningfully as soon as he entered the door, and then left quickly.

Before Tao Ziyuan could turn around, she had already been embraced into a warm embrace.

"I miss you. ”

The man sniffed the smell of the woman's hair, it was the familiar fragrance of flowers, the kind that would not get tired.

Today's Tao Zi Kite is wearing a red long dress, which is a dress made by Mrs. Lin for her according to the previous size, but it is unexpectedly very fit, plus Mrs. Lin asked the mother-in-law in the house to dress up carefully, Tao Zi Kite at this moment is very dazzling.

When he practiced martial arts, Tao Ziyuan was often guided by him in every move, but there was no time when he was so excited, and his face turned red instantly.

But there is an indescribable sweetness in my heart, not the imaginary tension or discomfort.

Tao Ziyuan's hand slowly stroked his back, the exhaustion of this way made him lose a lot of weight, and his clothes were obviously empty.

It seems that the affairs of Yundu Mansion are really troublesome.

"I asked him for marriage, but I didn't expect him to punish you for kneeling for so long, I'm sorry, I said that I would protect you, but I didn't do it well. ”

Chen Yan took a step back as he spoke, and there was some distance between the two of them, but the affectionate Tao Ziyuan in those eyes could see it clearly.

"You...... You ......"

"yes, I like you. ”

Chen Yan said with a smile, the beard on his face had already sprouted green stubble, and his eyes were also black, and he could see that he was very tired but still supporting.

"Then are you willing to marry me? Not as a concubine, but as the wife that I am marrying. I may be many years older than you, but I will do my best to keep you safe for the rest of your life, and I will fulfill my promise no matter what your choice is. ”

Seeing such gentle words from an indifferent person like Chen Yan, Tao Ziyuan didn't know why there was a feeling of pride in her heart, but it was more joy and indescribable sweetness.

"You...... Why are you back? Aren't you in Yundu Mansion? Is the matter settled over there?"

Tao Ziyuan didn't answer him directly, but talked about the matter of Yundu Mansion.

Chen Yan's eyebrows were a little worried, "Fortunately, Gu Yi already has a clue, and I came back after all the things over there were arranged." What about your answer, you ...... If I don't want to, I'll go and talk to Your Majesty. ”

"What are you talking about?" Tao Ziyuan asked.

Chen Yan smiled and said with a smile, trying to maintain a peaceful posture, but he still couldn't hide the disappointment between his eyebrows.

"Naturally, I want to speak, don't embarrass you anymore. I...... I just didn't think about it, I didn't think he would do that, really...... ...... to the

Chen Yan looked at the person in front of him, Tao Ziyuan covered his mouth, with a sly smile on his face,

"Whoever made you kneel for me for so long, naturally I want to get it back. ”

The surprise that flashed in his eyes at that moment Tao Zikite didn't miss it, the luckiest thing in this world is that the person he likes also likes himself.

Tao Ziyuan thought that she was lucky at this moment, even if she had suffered so much before, no matter how bitter she was, it was enough to have a hint of sweetness.

Chen Yan hugged her into his arms again in surprise, and the fireworks outside also sounded at this moment.

Happy Chinese New Year's Eve.
