Chapter 120: Homesickness
After dinner and a hot shower, it was completely dark. Doudou very consciously got into Yuan Hui's bed.
Both aunts and nephews had something to say, so they reclined on the head of the bed together.
Doudou took out the jewelry box hidden in his sleeve and handed it to Yuan Hui: "Auntie, this is my gift to you." ”
In the main hall just now, from the two brothers of the Dou family to the maids-in-law, everyone got the gifts prepared by Doudou, and only for Yuan Hui, she chose to take them out at this time.
"Doudou, this is ......" Yuan Hui gently opened the jewelry box, her eyes immediately moistened, her mind This child actually noticed it a long time ago.
"Auntie, this is certainly not as good as the pair that my great-grandmother gave you, but I also chose it with my heart, I hope you like it. Although he bought it with the wages he had withdrawn in advance, Doudou still felt the joy of earning money to buy gifts and give them away.
"My little girl gave it to me, and no matter what my aunt likes. Yuan Hui's voice was a little hoarse, she took out the bracelet and gently put it on her wrist, the cold gold stuck to her skin, but it kept her warm to her heart.
"Auntie, I miss you so much......" Doudou leaned his head on Yuan Hui's shoulder, and his words were full of the delicate appearance of a little girl, which made Yuan Hui a little in a trance, as if she had returned to the days when they got along day and night a few years ago.
She stretched out her arm to hold Doudou and said softly, "Doudou, is it okay in the Yuan family?"
"Grandmother, father and mother are very good to me, I also have a good master, I originally wanted her to come to Liaodong together, but the master has some personal matters to deal with, and I can only do it next time. "Speaking of this Doudou, it is very regrettable, but the master and her old man said that she has to inspect the twenty restaurants, and now this is the property of the two of them, and they can't be sloppy.
"You are doing well, so my aunt will not feel that she did something wrong at the beginning, Doudou, although you didn't cry or make trouble at that time. I must be reluctant to leave home. Now that she has seen Doudou, who is very healthy physically and mentally, Yuan Hui's heart is really let go.
Doudou turned his head to look at Yuan Hui and said, "Auntie, tell me about the family, how could my uncle suddenly be promoted to three levels in a row." And what about those who were transferred to the Liaodong Metropolitan Division?"
Yuan Hui smiled, "We don't know, anyway, the letter of appointment was sent directly to the guard, and your uncle must arrive before the first day of October last year, so he hurried along the way." Everyone was tired. At first, I was very uneasy, but your uncle said that he had not done anything bad, and that we should just live a good life. ”
"Well, my father said the same thing, anyway, it's always a good thing to be promoted, and now my aunt can also be called Mrs.!"
Because Doudou and his party arrived a long time later than expected, Yuan Hui couldn't sleep peacefully for several days, and the child who was in her heart was lying beside her at this time. She was talking, but her upper and lower eyelids couldn't help but fight.
Doudou helped Yuan Hui lie down, tucked the quilt for her, and supported his head with his arm, looking at the woman who gave him a second life over and over again.
Yuan Hui actually didn't sleep soundly, in the haze she suddenly remembered that she hadn't mentioned Yuan Xiao to Doudou, but she was so sleepy that she couldn't open her eyes, so she had to mumble a few words in her mouth.
"Bean...... Doudou, you Yuanxiao...... His cousin was also in Liaodong, and he went to visit his grandfather. I should be back in a few days......"
Doudou was also starting to feel a little sleepy, but suddenly she heard a name from her aunt that made her gnash her teeth, and her drowsiness disappeared all of a sudden.
Although her aunt said a little vaguely, she still heard the word "Yuan Xiao" clearly.
She wouldn't think that this Yuan Xiao was not the other Yuan Xiao. The names of the children of the Yuan family and their generation are all from the water, could it be that there is another one named Yuan Xiao? So the cousin Yuan Xiao in my aunt's mouth must be that damn guy!
She should have been angry when she heard that guy's name, but she didn't know why, and there was still a faint expectation in her heart.
What are you looking forward to? Nonsense, of course, I'm looking forward to beating that guy up, although my current martial arts may not be as good as him. But he didn't know his details at all, and if he found the opportunity to sneak up on him once, he would definitely succeed.
The more she thought about it, the happier she became, and she looked forward to dreaming of that guy, so she cleaned him up in her dream first, and regarded it as a rehearsal in advance.
※※※※
Because of the big loss suffered in Yuanfu last year, Huo Xiao delayed his trip to Shenyang Zhongwei, so he was also punished by his mother, Princess Yongfu, and he didn't relax even during the Chinese New Year.
Princess Yongfu did not let him go until the end of March, when he was still in a post station away from Dongning Weibaili.
Although others are not in Dongningwei, the news of the Dou family is still known clearly, Doudou arrived in Dongningwei in the evening, and he received a message from the flying pigeon an hour later.
The room of the post station was very simple, Huo Xiao's upright figure was reflected in front of the window, because the window was open with a crack, and his shadow was also swaying with the flickering candle flame. He read the message several times before he walked to the candle and burned the note.
Shuyan has always had no heart and lungs, and he has long fallen asleep on the simple wooden bed, while Shumo has been standing silently aside, not daring to slack off at all.
"Shumo, you go to sleep too, the lentils have arrived in Dongningwei, we have to get up early tomorrow and hurry. Huo Xiao didn't mind sharing this news with Shumo, he and Shuyan were both people he could trust.
Shumo has been serving Huo Xiao for many years, and although the master's mind is completely clear, he can also guess a ** score.
However, in the matter of Doudou, he really couldn't understand what Huo Xiao thought and what he planned.
He said softly: "Master, in fact, with our footsteps, it won't take an hour to travel a hundred miles, so it's better to set off now, rush back to the palace to have a good rest, and you can see Miss Doudou early tomorrow morning."
Go see that lentil tomorrow morning? Huo Xiao shook his head as if laughing at himself, "You go and rest first, there are some things that don't need to be in a hurry." ”
"Yes, sir. Today's Huo Xiao is no longer the arrogant little boy who needed to be served in everything, what he said meant was that he didn't want to sleep yet, and Shumo retreated with understanding.
Huo Xiao never knew that he also had such a forward-looking future, and it was clear that the matter of lentils going to Liaodong was planned by himself, so he tossed Liaodong and Northwest China, and even his grandfather and grandfather were alarmed.
Now that the person is less than a hundred miles away from him, he has some indescribable anxiety in his heart, is this the legendary "hometown timidity"?
This is not his Huo Xiaowangye's style at all, it feels really bad!(To be continued.) )
