On this day, the Du family was moving.

Outside the courtyard, there were 12 ox carts parked against the wall, and people came out in a stream, carrying tables and chairs, or carrying screens and gauze cabinets, and loading them one by one.

But Du Ruo was not affected, obviously hearing the stewards shouting everywhere, and still slowly tinkering with her gadgets.

Yuzhu looked anxious, and said softly: "Girl, when do you have to get it like this, why don't you let the slave do it for you?" “

Du Ruo shook his head: "It's all my baby, what if you put it together and break it, you will pay for it?" “

The little girl picked up a jade butterfly and wrapped it in fine silk, handed it to Helan, and picked up a solitary volume, this time wrapped more carefully, wrapped in more than three layers. Yuzhu was an anxious person, and when she saw her slender arms dangling, she wanted to pounce on her for her, and couldn't help but remind: "The old lady said that she would definitely move in today." “

Mrs. Du is a person who has to turn over the yellow calendar for everything, this time their Du family followed Zhao Jian to attack Chang'an, Zhao Jian after establishing himself as the king, he rewarded him for his meritorious deeds, and named the uncle of the Du family as the Duke of Song, and even gave the Duke Mansion a few days ago. The old lady was so happy that she was in a hurry to move into the mansion, and chose the nearest auspicious day, and even the door plaque was made overnight, and I am afraid that it was still smelling of paint at this time.

Du Ruo was also at a loss for this grandmother, and glanced at the water leak against the wall and said: "I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, and if I break anything, it's hard to find it in the world." “

Her own girl is a collection of thousands of favors, and now the eldest lord has been named the grandfather of the country, and he walks sideways in the house, not to mention these gadgets, that is, she wants to move the single courtyard, I'm afraid the eldest lord will have to think of an idea!

Yuzhu didn't dare to say more.

Du Ruo is still slow.

Knowing her daughter's temper, Xie Shi cleaned up the end, so he came to urge Du Ruo, and saw that she didn't get anything, look at the leftovers in this place, just know how to pack this bag and that, she flicked her handkerchief and ordered: "Yuzhu, you quickly clean it up, don't care about the girl's hand, let people start to lift those big items out!" “

"Mother," Du Ruo raised his head, stopped talking, and said half-loudly, "Don't let them break it." “

"Little ancestor, which of them dares to break your things, you......" She looked down at her little face, feeling that she was doing things slower than usual today, reached out and stroked her hair bun, and asked softly, "But you don't want to move away?" “

Before the capture of Chang'an, their families all lived in Jin County, has lived for more than half a year, Jin County has beautiful mountains and clear waters, and the people are simple, although they were invaded by Zhao Jian's army, but they did not hurt the people in the slightest, and still maintained tranquility, like a peach blossom source isolated from the world. But even so, it didn't make Du Ruo reluctant to leave, she just knew that they were destined to move into Chang'an, because she had dreamed of it.

It was also from this day that the Great Zhou Dynasty was truly divided into two kingdoms, the new dynasty established by the Zhou State and Zhao Jian, the Great Yan.

And she has also become a child of Dayan.

All this confirmed her dream, Du Ruo was both scared and felt novel, she looked up and smiled at Xie Shi: "It's very comfortable to live here, but as long as you are with your father and brother, you can live the same anywhere, I don't want to." “

Xie said: "Then don't toss, in case it's too late to make your grandmother angry." “

"Grandmother is not angry, many of them were given by grandmother," she held a golden bell and shook it to Xie, "This is what my grandmother asked someone to beat when I was three years old, you see, I keep it, okay?" It's not bad at all. “

Xie Shiwan'er: "Yes, yes, everyone else is a loser, you can do it, look at the ...... of your room" She stretched out her hand and pinched her eyebrows, before their Du family followed Zhao Jian to rebel, they were also rich and noble, and they lacked nothing, but this child has been thrifty since he was a child, or he can't say that he is thrifty, everything is good, but he is not willing to lose everything, and he still carries the golden bell when he was three years old.

She couldn't laugh or cry, and admonished, "No matter what, you get ready quickly, you can't let the whole family wait for you." “

Du Ruo agreed and asked, "Mother, where is my brother, where is my brother?" “

"Cleaning up, too."

"Oh." Seeing that Xie was gone, Du Ruo hurriedly asked Yuzhu to call Du Ling.

When his sister called, Du Ling didn't dare to stop for a moment, and he arrived under the eaves in an instant.

Du Ruo stood at the door and pointed to the beam: "You make a swing for me, take it down quickly and take it to Chang'an." “

Du Ling didn't expect it to be for this, and frowned: "It's not valuable, this is also a belt?" You don't have to worry about it! When you move in, I'll make you a better one. “

"No, no, I want this." At that time, Du Ling saw that the house was narrow, there was no garden to enjoy the flowers, there were no pavilions, and she was afraid that her sister would be bored, so she went to the mountains to cut wood to make it.

No matter what others say, but those things that carry memories and are full of feelings, she is just reluctant to throw them away.

Seeing her watery eyes staring at herself, Du Ling's heart softened, and she sighed and asked the little girl to bring a ladder, this thing was hung up by him, he was most familiar with it, and his sister was afraid that others would break it.

When the swing was removed, she smiled and said, "Thank you, brother." He urged him again, "Okay, it's okay, you can go back and clean up." “

"It's really unconscionable to rush away when you run out of people." Du Ling pinched her soft and smooth little face, just like when she was born, he always wanted to pinch her all the time. But compared to before, my sister's face is not so round, and the flesh seems to be tighter, they all say that my sister is getting more and more beautiful, but he is very disappointed, and said in an old-fashioned manner, "Ruoruo, you should eat more!" “

Du Ruo squinted at him: "I'm not going to be a big fat man!" “

"I've been doing this for more than ten years, how good is it to keep doing it?" Du Ling said, "Don't worry, Brother Meat Money has it." “

Du Ruo didn't want to pay attention to him, and snorted and asked Helan to put up the swing.

At this time, Du Ling took out a palm-sized gold-painted sandalwood carved flower box from his sleeve, handed it over and whispered: "I originally wanted to move it over and give it to you again, but now it is just right, this is a housewarming gift from the eldest prince." “

Zhao Ke set himself up as the king, and his son was naturally the prince, Du Ruo's heart jumped, and he stared at the box with his eyes down.

The eyelashes trembled slightly, but his hand didn't come to pick it up, Du Ling opened the box: "I know you like butterflies, he picked them out himself, you can put them away quickly." “

On the dark blue silk, there is a pair of red gold butterflies, with extremely thin wings, and you can even see the lines on them, just like the real thing, and they can fly at any time. Du Ruo was in a trance at this moment, although she and Zhao Yu were not childhood sweethearts, they had known each other for a long time because their father was Zhao Ke's subordinate, and he loved her like a brother.

But a dream changed their relationship.

If she didn't see the future, she would happily marry Zhao Yu, be his crown princess, and then be the queen of the world.

But now, she no longer wants to have anything to do with him, so she pushed open the box and said, "You help me return it to him, just say that I don't like butterflies." “

Du Ling looked at the butterfly on her head, frowned, and said, "I don't like you still wearing it?" Why, exactly? “

"There's no why, I just don't like it." Du Ruoshang was not ready to tell the secret, and prevaricated, "You give it back to him, brother, okay?" “

She tugged at his sleeve, her eyes pleading.

Du Ling is very strange, because in his impression, his sister and Zhao Yu have a good relationship, and it is normal for people to give a housewarming gift, but my sister actually refused, what happened between the two? He wanted to ask, but Du Ruo's mouth was tightly closed, and he didn't want to embarrass his sister, so he had to agree.

Seeing him leave, Du Ruo stood in front of the window and looked at the new sprouts of the old trees in the courtyard, thinking that she would ascend to the phoenix throne a few years later, Zhao Yu couldn't even endure it for a year, and pretended to refuse the official's suggestion to accept the harem, but in private, he touched other women under the pretext of drunkenness...... Even though it was in a dream, she still remembered the anger of that moment.

She didn't understand, since Zhao Yu didn't like her, why did she have to marry her?

Why do you have to show your deep affection for her and spoil her so much.

Seeing her standing still, Helan said softly, "Girl, the swing is ready." “

Du Ruo came back to his senses and no longer thought about it, Zhao Yu failed her, but later he failed to keep the throne, it was really a report and a report, what did she have to think about? Anyway, it hasn't happened yet, and in the future, Zhao Yu has to pretend to be a big brother to coax her, so she ignores him.

She instructed Helan: "Put up the tea set too." “

There was a loud bang outside, as if someone had broken something big.

Someone immediately scolded: "Do you know how much silver I have on this screen?" Don't die one by one, I tell the master, the master has to kill you! Which one of you falls, stand up for me! Honestly, I may be able to leave you a whole corpse! “

The voice is subdued and exaggerated, like singing.

In fact, Aunt Wu was indeed born in an opera, and the second master of the Du family bought it back for fifty taels of silver, because the second lady was cowardly, Aunt Wu was very arrogant, Du Ruo was so noisy that she had a headache, cut off two pieces of muslin and stuffed them in her ears.

Yuzhu has always been uncontrollable, and said angrily: "Why don't you let Aunt Wu go farther, there is no rule, and you can make noise when you stand at our door." “

Du Ruo said: "It's okay, you can go." “

Unexpectedly, before Yuzhu stepped out of the door, he heard a crisp voice sound.

Yuzhu probed and saw that it was Du Rong, the eldest girl in the second room, and saw that she was pointing at Aunt Wu's nose and reprimanding her face: "You are just a slave yourself, you bought it for fifty taels of silver, and now you can't sell it for ten taels of silver, and you are still scolding people!" What kind of tattered screen can make you shout, let you pack up and move, not to let you be majestic, nor to look at your face, you deserve to take out the master's style? “

Aunt Wu's face was flushed, but she didn't dare to fight back, gritted her teeth and left.

Du Ruo plugged his ears and heard it clearly, and couldn't help but purse his lips and smile, his cousin is really not a thing in the pool, and only she can be so spicy that she can calm people.

After Du Rong finished scolding, she flicked her sleeves and walked to her door, raised her eyebrows and said, "Third sister, I warn you, you give me faster, otherwise I will throw out all your things!" “

Du Ruo smiled sweetly at her: "Sister, you must have packed up, come and help me." “

That's her signboard, no one can stop her, Du Rong snorted and walked over: "I know that you are a big turtle, you should change your name to Du Turtle." “

Du Ruo was not angry at all, and blinked: "Then your name is Du Rabbit, okay?" “

Du Rong sneered.

With her hand, Du Ruo quickly wrapped up all the small pieces, and Du Rong clapped her hands: "I still have to go to see the second sister, she is similar to you, she is so slow, her pen, ink, paper and inkstone are enough to tidy up." “

It was the second girl Du Ying, Du Ruo closed the ebony makeup in her hand and said with a smile: "I'll go with you." “

Du Rong told her to hurry up, and left in a hurry, she followed behind, who expected to walk into the courtyard, and saw a person standing at the gate of the courtyard not far away.

The thick green shade of the trees blocked out the sunlight, shrouding him in shadow, like a black mist, and he couldn't see his face clearly.

But Du Ruo knows who he is, he is a person not far from her life, and he is also the king of a country who will dominate the fate of countless people in the future.

He Xuan.

She silently recited his name, as if she saw the sword in his hand, soaked in blood that night. He walked slowly towards her, his ink boots stepping on the pool of blood of Danqi, and with each step, bright red flowers bloomed on the stone steps.

There was a chill in her palm, she turned her head sideways and chased after Du Rong quickly.

002,

Because it is a temporary residence, it is far less spacious than the Du Mansion they once had in Jinling, and the four girls in the mansion live closely, only a few dozen steps away.

The sound of the piano can be heard from afar, like a breeze in the forest, peaceful and soft.

Du Rong turned her head and said with annoyance: "Look, I didn't say anything wrong, right?" At this time, she is still playing the piano, and I don't know where the leisure comes from, everyone is in a hurry to pack up things, just she wants to pretend to be high, thinking that we can't play the piano? More annoying than you. “

Don't look at Du Rong being mean, but the two of them are sisters, and their relationship is deeper than anyone else's, Du Ruo quipped: "But she is a fairy, didn't she have a god nun who wanted to accept her as a disciple when she was a child?" In the future, Xu will be ranked in the immortal class. “

"Narrow ghosts." Du Ying's thin voice floated out of the window, "Say bad things about me behind my back again......" She coughed lightly, "The Yaoqin I just found, I just looked at whether the strings were broken, what did you say?" “

Both laughed.

Du Rong didn't stop for a moment, as soon as she entered the house, she pointed to the east and west, and instructed her mother-in-law to carry the ox cart and empty anything. “

The face of the perennial medicine is very pale, there is not much blood, I see pity for the thin eyebrows and phoenix eyes, Du Ruo looked at her, thinking that she was not talking nonsense just now, and always felt that Du Ying sometimes seemed to be riding the wind.

Pulling Du Ying's hand, she smiled and said: "Second sister, eldest sister is good like this, leave everything to her to worry about, we will be idle and happy." “

Unlike her sickness, Du Ruo's complexion is white and red, always like a full fruit, sweet when she was a child, anyone who sees it wants to take a bite, and now she is also sweet, laughing at two small pear vortices, bright and brilliant.

No matter how bad the mood was, Du Ying touched her bud: "That's right, let her take care of it." Come, I'll show you the picture of the lady I just found, I look like you, painted by the court painter of the previous dynasty. “

She asked Yahuan to bring it, and on the old rice paper, a little girl in a pink skirt stood in front of the tall palace wall, holding a broom, smiling slightly, like a warm sun.

Du Ruo was surprised: "It's really a little similar to me." “

"Right? To you. "Du Ying is very generous," these things all depend on whether there is fate. “

It was normal for them to give gifts to each other, and Du Ruo didn't refuse.

Du Rong said dissatisfied: "I really don't care, when it comes to calligraphy and painting, if it weren't for me, one or two of you would have to be told by your grandmother, why don't you sort it out quickly!" “

Du Yingwan'er stretched out her hand and took the stack of rice paper on the high table next to the couch to Yahuan: "Be careful, don't break it, it's Chengxin paper, and now it's in chaos, and I don't know where to buy it." “

The three girls worked together and quickly cleaned up.

Du Ruo picked up the scroll and said goodbye.

Yuzhu said softly on the road: "The old lady really loves the second girl, the slave maid just saw her several boxes of blood swallows, but there is nothing here in the big house, and the lady also said to the kitchen steward last time, if you see it in any shop, you will buy them all back at a price." “

What's so strange about that? Du Ruo said: "The second sister is not in good health, grandmother will definitely hurt her, not to mention grandmother, even I should give the second sister to make up for my body." “

Her own girl is really generous, she doesn't care at all, Yuzhu is a little wronged for her, after all, the girl is the eldest daughter of the big house, and the Du family can always have this wealth by relying on the eldest master, so all the good things in the house should belong to the girl, but she wanted to think about it, but she didn't say it.

On the road, people are still coming and going to move things, among them there is a big one, six or seven people to carry, Du Ruo recognized that it was his grandmother's magpie shelf bed in Shuangyue Cave, remembering that when he first came to Jin County, his grandmother said that he could not sleep well at night, and he said that the big bed that the ancestor had passed down for more than a hundred years, and his father had no choice but to send someone to Jinling to carry it over.

Fortunately, Jinling was no longer fighting at that time, and his mother said that she was reluctant to throw things, and her grandmother was actually even more so, but she also liked the bed. When her father went out to fight when she was a child, she often stayed with her grandmother, and the little group always crawled on the bed, and at that time she thought that the bed was so big that she couldn't climb to the end.

The little girl smiled stupidly in the sun, her eyes shining like horizontal waves, rippling in a lake.

Du Ling shouted from a distance: "Ruoruo, why are you running around? “

Following the prestige, when she saw her brother, she walked over and raised the scroll: "I went to help the second sister, she gave me a painting, look at ......it" She unfolded it, raised her head again, but found that there was one more person beside Du Ling.

He Xuan.

He Xuan's biological father died on the battlefield five years ago, and since that day, his father has taken good care of him.

She still remembered the first time she saw He Xuan, he was dressed in black, thin and indifferent, it was obviously a warm March, but he seemed to be standing in the cold winter, with heavy snow falling from all over his body, and no one could get close.

She was so young that she didn't know how to be afraid, even He Xuan didn't make her hide in fright.

Her father asked her to call him Brother Xuan, and she had a sweet mouth, so she came when she opened her mouth.

But now, she can't scream anymore.

Mother thought she had grown up, thin-skinned and shy, but she knew in her heart that it was because she had gathered less and left more in recent years, and once he came back from Xiangyang, her mother and her were guests at Zhao's house, and she was lying on the window and saw him standing in the courtyard talking to Zhao Jian. He was dressed in a pitch-black robe, but he wore a red cloak, and the golden crown on his head shone brightly, and at that moment, for some reason, she didn't seem to know him.
