Runxi had obviously heard about last night's incident, and the rest of the people in the courtyard seemed to be as usual except for Dole, who was frowning. However, Chunhua is noisy, but today is exceptionally quiet.

Xiao Jiu felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly asked Runxi, who was waiting here, "But what's wrong?" This yard is exceptionally quiet? ”

It was Runxi who asked, but Lanzhu on the side waved her hand again and again with a white face. Xiao Jiu was even more suspicious, but fortunately, Runxi reacted quickly and smiled faintly: "Lan Zhu, but how about the rose water boiled for the princess?" If the temperature is just right, use it to soak your hands. ”

Seeing that Lan Zhu went out, he said softly: "King Ying went out with a temper last night, and no one dares to say much today." Don't think about it either. After another pause, he said, "It's better to think about how to get along with King Ying, this is Chinese New Year's Eve soon, and it's not good to look at the family with a stiff face!" ”

Xiao Jiu said with confidence: "It's always implicated in you!" Runxi smiled again: "What is the princess talking about!" Slaves are blessed to be able to follow you. ”

Xiao Jiu turned his eyes and looked out the window, the snow had stopped today, and the sun was good. He was so out of breath in his chest that he pulled his sleeves as if he remembered something and asked, "Have you sent out the new clothes of several concubines?" ”

Runxi nodded and said, "It's all gone, I heard that I was going to enter the palace with King Ying, those two were very happy, and I took pity on them." As he spoke, he felt that something was wrong, so he quickly shut up. Xiao Jiu smiled helplessly and sighed: "Let's go out for a walk." It's also uncomfortable to be stuffy in the house all the time! ”

It's just ordinary words, but Runxi showed embarrassment, and seemed to be nervous: "Don't!" You hurriedly explained: "This dried petals are inconvenient to store in winter, so it is easy to use them to boil water, and you have to go out for a walk, if it is cold and has no effect, it is also a waste!"

After saying this, he was also in a cold sweat, but fortunately, this person is Xiao Jiu, if he changes the master next to him, this will already cause trouble. But the rumors outside the courtyard spread to victory, what King Ying and Lian'er fell in love all night and didn't sleep, King Ying did not hesitate to turn his face with the princess in order to rob Lian'er. All kinds of versions, no matter which one they are, can make Xiao Jiu collapse.

Fortunately, she was also stunned, so she whispered: "Then soak your hands and then go." Lan Zhu brought the water, this bubble seemed to have more processes than usual, Xiao Jiu didn't pay attention to it, he was already preoccupied, so he had to be at their mercy like a puppet.

Seeing that it was about to be dragged out, Runxi was sweating on her back, if she was asked to go out to listen to those rumors, it would be better to reply to her directly. But who can see her deep affection, and can imagine how the blow of this matter can be opened.

At this moment, Chunhua came in with her legs sloped, with a hint of joy on her face, and reported with a smile: "Princess, your brother is here!" Xiao Jiu's face was overjoyed, and he said excitedly: "Hurry up and please!"

Chunhua skimmed her face, glanced at Runxi, and said directly: "The princess didn't sleep well last night, why don't you put some powder on it?" Xiao Jiu was stunned, glanced at her and said, "It's okay, why are you crying again?" Haven't your eyes been so swollen when you go out in the morning? ”

Chunhua put on makeup on Xiao Jiu and said with a smile: "I just went back to make up for my sleep, but I woke up like this."

When Xiao Jiu walked to the outer room, Mu Zi was carefully stirring ginger soup for the woman next to him, and he carefully blew it before handing it over, and the half-old child under his knees opened his big round eyes and grabbed his feet, and was stopped by Mu Zi. The woman couldn't bear it, and handed the ginger tea to the child, who licked it and smiled, "It's not as good as mine!" The three of them were so happy that they didn't notice Xiao Jiu standing aside.

The woman's skin is not as fair as that of the Beichi people, and she is slightly yellowish, but she has an indifferent temperament. Her eyes are like the moon, her willow eyebrows are slender, and she looks like a gentle and virtuous woman. When Mu Zi saw Xiao Jiu at a glance, he was a little embarrassed at first, and then smiled: "What are you doing standing outside the door?" ”

Runxi hadn't seen Muzi before, and was about to remind him but was stopped by Xiao Jiu at the door. After approaching with a smile: "You always say you want to come to see me, why do you keep coming?" ”

Mu Zi hesitated a little, and the woman smiled with the child: "See Princess Ying, Princess Ying Wanji!" Xiao Jiu hurriedly went to help: "It's all a family, don't talk about these vain powers!" ”

The woman smiled again: "I gave birth to Huan'er and came to see you, and I didn't reply to the letter." Later, I heard that King Ying had been fighting, so I didn't dare to disturb, and Muzi kept mentioning you. ”

Xiao Jiu looked at the honest Muzi and smiled: "You are fine now, take your daughter-in-law out, and your daughter-in-law will help you explain." Mu Zi spared his head again and said, "Hey, you look like this now, I'm still not used to it!" ”

Xiao Jiu hurriedly went to see the woman, and the woman smiled again: "He told me that you are also bitter, but now you are good, with the king taking care of you, you will live a worry-free life in the future,"

Xiao Jiu's eyes dimmed, and it was not easy to refute knowing that she was condolence, so she smiled faintly and said, "Yes!" Seeing their embarrassment, they smiled and said, "Then I'll call my sister-in-law?" Sister-in-law, how old is Huan'er? It looks exactly like Muzi. ”

The woman laughed and said, "Don't dare, how can I condescend to you!" At this moment, Xiao Jiu didn't reply, but Mu Zi said in a hard voice: "Why don't you dare, she is my sister, and she is also my sister in the sky!" Such care made Xiao Jiu's heart warm, and there was some envy in his eyes.

recruited Huan'er again: "Huan'er, how old are you this year?" These days, my aunt takes you to visit Jiangdu and buys you delicious food? After thinking about it, he said, "Why don't you let someone give you a hot bowl of milk now?" ”

Huan'er smiled innocently: "Don't, don't, your milk here is not as delicious as mine." The crowd scoffed. The woman hurriedly pulled Huan'er over and complained: "It's all what he's used to at home, sister don't mind!" ”

Xiao Jiu smiled again: "How can you mind, children, innocence is the best." Mu Zi smiled and asked, "Is there something wrong with you letting me come over this time?" Xiao Jiu was stunned, looked at the happy family of three again, sighed slightly in his heart, turned his face and smiled: "I miss you for the New Year, I want the family to have a meal together." You're going to leave later, right? ”

Mu Zi smiled honestly and said, "It's okay to have nothing to do!" Chinese New Year's Eve we are not like you, this time back, I want to take them to Jincheng to see, I thought where it was shabby, not back for a few years, but I also want to! ”

Jincheng? Xiao Jiu tugged at the corners of his mouth and said, "I haven't been there for many years." Muzi laughed: "Then let's go together!" The woman pulled him again and said, "Do you think that people are like you and are like a country man, and they have nothing to do all day long?" Mu Zi was stunned for a moment, and then spared his head.

Xiao Jiu saw that she was complaining tightly, so she asked tentatively: "Now there is a shortage of talents in the army, if my sister-in-law wants my brother to work in the army, I can think of a way." ”

The woman lowered her head and smiled: "I usually complain that he is smooth, but I let you see the joke." We are doing well now, we have our own drying grounds, our own livestock. I'm content to do things when I have something to do, and to wander around when I don't have anything to do. ”

Xiao Jiu listened to it yearningly, and smiled faintly: "I really envy you!" Muzi saw her difference, and asked sharply: "Is that King Ying not good to you, if he is not good to you, I will fight to help you get angry." ”

Hearing this, Xiao Jiu's heart was warm, he lowered his head and smiled, and he was afraid that his sister-in-law would eat it, so he looked up at her, but when he saw her look of support and worship, he immediately smiled. "What's not good? But when I see you, I feel like a fairy couple! ”

The woman smiled again: "Women are always like this, and I often complain to Muzi that the rich and noble people are brightly dressed, but these are also the seasonings of life, and you can't get into the horns of the bull in everything." ”

Mu Zi echoed on the side: "That's right, your sister-in-law is right." Xiao Jiu lowered his head and smiled again. Maybe she and Chu Yinghan thought too much, so they caused so many misunderstandings, so they cleared their throats and said, "Aunt Runxi, you sent someone to the palace to deliver a letter, saying that my brother has arrived, please come back for dinner!" ”

Runxi seemed to be stunned for a moment before saying, "Yes!" But there was a bit of worry in my heart.
