"After a day of tossing, you're tired. Let's go down and rest first, and we'll talk about it tomorrow. ”

"Okay. Mu Xingfu bowed and retreated.

After a while, Xue Jing came in: "Father, that person...... Is it really my sister?"

"I don't see a flaw. Xue Qi rubbed his temples, "How is your mother?"

"It's fine, I slept a little more heavily than usual. Xue Jing paused, "Although she cried a lot today, she looks better." The implication is that no matter whether this person is really Xue Ying's soul or has ulterior motives to fake it, at least her appearance is a good thing for Liao Yunxi.

Xue Qi nodded and didn't say much.

"By the way, Dad, what happened today, how should the one in the palace deal with it?"

"Don't let him know for the time being," Xue Qi's expression was a little cold, "Anyway, he doesn't dare to inquire about our Xue Mansion." ”

Xue Jing sighed to himself. The rumors outside that the regent and the emperor are not completely speculative, in fact, Xue Qi has always been haunted by Murong Duan's appointment of him as the regent and in charge of Dagu's soldiers and horses, on the surface, it is to blame Murong Duan for giving Xue Ying the opportunity to find a short circuit, but in fact, Xue Qi can't forgive himself, as soon as he sees Murong Duan, he remembers the scene of Xue Ying's tragic death, so although he has done his best to assist in state affairs, he has always been unapologetic to this little emperor.

Fortunately, Murong Duan understood Xue Qi's mood after understanding the whole story, and he didn't feel any strange for so many years.

To put it bluntly, Xue Ying's death is an insurmountable knot for them.

Early the next morning, after listening to the report of the subordinates, Xue Jing hurried to the kitchen.

"What are you?"

"You're here?" Mu Xingfu smiled, while talking, the movements of his hands were still neat, "I'll be fine soon, you go to say hello to your father and mother first, and I'll be there later." ”

Xue Jing watched in a daze as she took a piece of bacon, skillfully sliced it and put it on the steamer, the scene in front of her overlapped with her memory, her eyes slowly turned red, and she murmured: "Sister?"

Mu Xingfu looked back at him, and was distressed because he was full of nostalgia and remembrance: "'I hope we will be able to reunite as a family in peace one day in the future', I promised you to work together, I haven't forgotten." ”

This sentence was said by Xue Jing, and he only said it to Xue Ying.

He looked at this still somewhat unfamiliar face, and finally could slowly overlap with Xue Ying in his memory, his throat choked, and it took a long time to say the long-suppressed title: "Sister." ”

Mu Xingfu held back tears and patted him on the shoulder: "Since you are here, let's help serve the food, only those who work can eat." ”

"Well," Xue Jing smiled, "It's the rule!"

"Where's Ying'er? Isn't she back? Where did she go again?" As soon as he woke up, Liao Yunxi pestered Xue Qi and kept asking.

"Someone has been called to look for her, and she will come soon. Xue Qi coaxed softly, skillfully helping Liao Yunxi comb his hair and pull his bun.

"Father, parents, children and sisters have come to greet you. Xue Jing's brisk voice came out of the outside.

The second elder came out, the two knelt on the ground and kowtowed, Liao Yunxi hurriedly went over to help them up, and looked at Mu Xingfu stupidly: "Ying'er?"

"Yes, mother. ”

"Your appearance has changed," Liao Yunxi stroked her hair, "but it doesn't matter, my mother won't mistake you anymore." ”

This sentence made Mu Xingfu cry instantly. After returning to this world, she racked her brains to prove her identity, although she understood that this had to be experienced, but when she heard Liao Yunxi's unconditional trust, she suddenly began to feel aggrieved. At the same time, she also regretted what she had done in the past, which made her mother suffer from thinking about her daughter for ten years.

"Okay, okay, stop crying. Xue Jing was afraid that Liao Yunxi would cry and break her body, so she hurriedly changed the topic, "Today, my sister cooked breakfast herself, father, mother, let's hurry up and eat it while it's hot, it's in vain for my sister to work hard when it's cold." ”

"Okay, stop crying. Liao Yunxi quickly wiped away his tears, looked at the breakfast on the table, and bent his eyebrows, "It's our Ying'er's craftsmanship." I've been thinking about it for years!"

After sitting down, Xue Qi sandwiched a piece of dim sum into his mouth, the sweet but not greasy taste melted on the tip of his tongue, and his expression suddenly became complicated: It's Ying'er's craftsmanship, that's right.

………………

Mu Xingfu looked at the empty door, and said, "It's all here, why are you still hiding?"

Qiaoya outside the door hesitated for a moment, and entered the room a little awkwardly, but she didn't know what to say.

Mu Xingfu beckoned her to come over, seeing that the somewhat reckless energetic girl in her memory was now dressed as a woman, although her personality was still cheerful, she already had the majesty and calmness of a housemother in her gestures: "After you went back yesterday, Mr. Gu didn't ask anything?"

"I asked, but Master Xue wouldn't let me say it, so I didn't say anything. Qiaoya looked at her with admiration, "Are you really a young lady?"

"Hmm. ”

"But......" Qiao Ya struggled, "but aren't you dead?"

"Probably a gift from God. It knew that there were some things and some people I couldn't let go, so it gave me another chance. ”

"Then what do you want to do when you come back this time?"

"Atonement. ”

Qiaoya seems to understand whether she understands or not.

"I heard from my mother that you have often come back to accompany her and enlighten her over the years. Thank you. ”

Qiaoya blushed: "This is what I should do." ”

Mu Xingfu asked some more about the old people. Gu Yizhi became the prime minister, Qiaoya was gifted as the second lady, and the bolt is now in charge of the Chuyue Pavilion and has become the leader of the secret guards.

Mu Xingfu was relieved.

After talking for a while, Qiaoya slowly relaxed, and finally mustered up the courage to ask, "Miss, are you looking for 'that person'?"

Mu Xingfu lowered his eyes: "Hmm." But according to my father, there has been no news of him for a long time. ”

Qiaoya's eyes rolled.

"Looks like you have a clue?"

"Not really, but I can ask the plug to see if anything special has happened in Dagu recently. "Collecting information from the government and the opposition is nothing better than the First Moon Pavilion. "The last time the Jinghe River burst its embankment, I heard that there were manpower to turn the tide, and they delayed the flood breach for two quarters of an hour, saving hundreds of people. The strange thing is that after the incident, there was no trace of this person everywhere, and the people there thought that they had met the gods, and they burned incense and worshipped, which caused a sensation. ”

Mu Xingfu was a little distracted: "Do you think that person is him?"

Qiao Ya nodded: "After all, this kind of thing happened when I was governing northern Xinjiang." Because of the loose geology in northern Xinjiang, the increase in rainfall has brought a lot of trouble, thanks to him many times. And I heard that most of the water conservancy plans in northern Xinjiang were built under his personal leadership, but these things were suppressed by the emperor and did not spread. Speaking of this, Qiao Ya sighed, "What he did in northern Xinjiang can be called a thousand years of merit." ”

Thousand years of merit?

Mu Xingfu savored these four words.

Qiaoya asked, "Miss, is it because of this that God will give you a chance?"
