At the beginning of the eighth year of Thailand, the day of the migration of the family in Tanfu turned over a year.

At the end of the day, there was a sporadic firecracker sound outside to celebrate more than one year, there was an old custom, when the morning dawned, open the door and put three cannon battles, which can drive away the plague and ghosts, called "open the door and burst the battle".

In the city of Guard, smoke rises from the courtyards of many houses, and the smell of rice and meat bones can be heard from every house, as well as the sound of pots and bowls of firewood.

More than a dozen households near North Street have opened their doors, and both men and women have put on new clothes, clean shoes, and are dressed brightly. When they met, they gave each other a hundred fruits, and said auspicious blessings, accompanied by a burst of laughter of children running.

One of the courtyards with a sign is hung, but the door is closed, the yard is pasted with red couplets, the window is pasted with flying geese and butterflies cut by black gold paper, a small kitchen on the right side of three or two peach trees in front of the window, the white mist is rising, on one side of the slow fire stove, there is a cup of purple jade pulp with light purple color, milky fragrance, a plate of meat soy sauce poured yellow rice, the meat is fried fragrant and spicy, the fragrance sprays the noodles, and the portion is full.

In addition, all kinds of fruit tea, Jiang rice cake snacks, yellow millet and pickled chicken and bacon miscellaneous dishes have been prepared for the Chinese New Year.

One of them is a rare swan in Guard'an, the swan here can not be easy to come by, when Lord Xie sent it, it has already been frozen hard tied and tied, except for half eaten yesterday, the remaining Ruizhu slices under more than ten pieces of umami meat, with seasoning into the flavor, with charcoal fire repeatedly roasted, until the double side of the golden oil, then coated with a layer of honey, in the shape of petals placed on the plate, in the middle of a red honey fried plum blossom, in order to give Miss the morning porridge for food.

More than a dozen slices of swan meat, enough for Miss to have a mouth, not to say that there are three or five slices left, she is very clear about the amount of food that Miss eats, meat is usually only used a little bit, but there is no part of Xie Adult, and more than a dozen pieces are not enough for Lord Xie to coerce.

However, although Lord Xie loves meat and has a heavy mouth, he has never moved like some things that are very rare on the market and not enough for Miss to eat, and the fat swan is what he found, when it is a rare thing, he never moves a bite, and only waits for Miss to eat the rest, and then he will clean up the bottom of the plate, not only this thing, but also some other small quantities are only used by Miss.

To say that Rui Zhu's impression of Lord Xie was that he wanted to eat swan meat □□ leprosy at first, but now he has completely changed his outlook, and it was originally changed from these subtleties that are difficult to be discovered.

Last night, that call scared her, but later, it wasn't the thunder and rain, and she was wrapped around her fingers by a few words from the young lady, Ruizhu only stood for a while and didn't see any movement, so she went back to the room, and when she put her mind down, she not only pursed her lips and snickered, but the adults are getting more and more useless with their own young lady, and in the long run, don't want to run out of the palm of the young lady's hand in this life.

I don't know who I heard before that the reckless man was rude, now it seems that this rudeness is just an excuse, all because of not caring about it, if you meet a hearty person, just like the adults of her family, to be careful and look at the six roads, listen to the eight directions, the heart is as careful as a hair, and the care is very good, when it is really always concerned, there is no better.

Ruizhu quickly put the snail crisp into the plate, and poured the red sour sugar juice on the side, and filled the fire under the stove of the goose fat soup, and cut a small plate of pickled bamboo shoots and sour eggplant tomato that Miss loves to eat recently, emerald green emerald green, purple red purple red, snow white snow white, put on the plate, it is a plate of pickles, all make people have appetite, not only delicious, but also can solve the thick and greasy moss.

Xie Chengzu got up early, the sun had not yet appeared on the horizon, the outside was full of cold ice and snow mist, even the treetops were hung with frost, and the habits developed every day did not change in the spring, when even if he played a spear in the courtyard, he was probably afraid that the sound of the gun body cutting through the air would be too loud, and he would wake up the sleeping people in the house, but his movements were a little slower, although he only moved his body, did not make a loud sound, and practiced for at least half an hour in half a day, and he only stopped in two quarters of an hour today.

Immediately took a shower and changed into a brand-new dark silver-edged robe, and walked into the kitchen with a little wet hair, he must have to eat after practicing the gun, Ruizhu was very eye-catching and poured the freshly poured meat soy sauce and yellow rice over, and whispered to ask if he called the young lady to use it together.

Xie Chengzu looked at the sky, the sky had just dawned, and he knew very well that the squeamish person in the house had to sleep until three poles a day on weekdays, that is, there were classes in the academy, and it was also a class in Chenshi, so she would not delay her sleep.

He waved his hand and said without raising his head: "Let her sleep for a while, she will be out of energy if she gets up early." "Besides, I slept late last night.

Ruizhu saw that Lord Xie's words were all considerate and spoiled, without the slightest reproach, so he hurriedly smiled and said "eh", and then went to the East Chamber to take a photo of Fumeng, who was about to wake up.

On the first day of today's new year, although there is some entertainment, but there is no need to get up early for business, Xie Chengzu had breakfast, so he cleaned up the snow and firecracker debris blown by the wind last night in the inner and outer courtyards of the house, and split the rough wood into small pieces and put it between the stoves, and the water tank was also full of water.

Although he is a city guard, his sick mother and younger brother in his early years have to be managed by him both at home and abroad, and these household preparations are very skillful and neat.

When I changed my clothes and returned to the inner room, it was already sunny and sunny.

The sunlight shines through the light-colored window paper, but it is blocked by a layer of silk curtains, so that the people holding the soft white silk quilts inside the curtains are still sleeping fragrantly, but the sun rises outside, the temperature rises, and the kitchen room burns the wood and prepares water early, so that the warm kang begins to heat up, and the temperature in the tent is also high, and the people in the curtain also have some hot quilt rolls, and a mutton fat white and smooth like milk* is exposed.

When Xie Chengzu, who was about to go out with new clothes, walked in, he opened the curtain, except for a strong warm fragrance, it was a scene in front of him that made people bleed.

Thinking of last night's incident again, Lord Xie's rare face flushed, he sat down slowly along the side, but his eyes were always on the back of the snow with a brocade quilt, his sleeping face was flushed, and the fresh cherry lips were slightly open, revealing a touch of jade teeth like a shell, and he couldn't help but reach out and pinch and caress her cheeks that were as smooth as satin and pink as xia.

Although his hands are distinct and thin, he is thin and slender, but because he has been practicing martial arts for many years, the palms are calloused, and the barbs between his fingers are barbed, so he pinched and scraped twice, which caused his subordinates to wake up from their slumber, and rubbed the quilt impatiently for a while before squinting their eyes.

"Hmph, if you really marry into the Zheng Mansion, is there a housewife? How can you be so comfortable and sleep for so long? Don't look at the time outside, even Fumeng got up......" The tone is still slightly sour with the astigmatism that has not been astigmatized last night, Xie Chengzu has been in the army for nearly ten years, although he does not say that he is old-fashioned and boring, but he will never coax anyone, what is good to say, just she slept soundly, and at this moment, seeing her misty and misty eyes, she immediately withdrew her hand, and her face and tone were stern.

But when the person in the quilt first woke up, her brain was completely chaotic, and his words entered her ears like a veil, and she couldn't get into her head, and she instinctively wanted to continue sleeping. Xie Chengzu naturally knew what was wrong with her, and sighed and asked to help people up and sit with the quilt for a while, so that she would wake up faster, otherwise, I am afraid that breakfast will be used together with lunch.

He had just pulled the quilt here, and he wanted to help someone up with the quilt, but the person who was a little dry by the kang broke free from the quilt and instinctively hung on the person who had changed into new clothes, but still had a slight coolness.

It was really comfortable, she made a soft "um" sound, closed her eyes and climbed tighter.

Xie Chengzu is an ancient person in the end, usually closes the door, how the two of them indulge and linger at night, they can both accept it, but on a sunny day and under the bright light, they saw such a "thrilling" scene with their own eyes, and people who have always been calm are panicked.

He stretched out his hand and pulled a snow arm that was climbing her neck, the flesh and bone were rich when he held it in his hand, he pulled and pulled, but he couldn't pull it down, it wasn't that he didn't have enough strength, but she climbed tightly, and forcibly pulled it away for fear of hurting her and leaving black fingerprints.

He had to give up his hand and hold her thin waist, but as soon as he exerted a slight force, the person who was holding him climbed up on his legs, almost like a bear hanging from a tree.

Xie Chengzu is in his prime of life, how can he be tortured like this, not to mention that people are still what he likes, not to mention that he is like now, he just speaks softly on weekdays, and he can hardly hold the idea that he wants to be close, but he can sit in today's position with the son of a commoner, relying not only on his youthful vigor and strength, but also on his precocious and stable firm will beyond his age.

Therefore, his cheeks trembled slightly and forcibly held back, looking at the sunny sky outside, he secretly said that he was indispensable, he just closed his eyes and pulled the person away ruthlessly, in the end, his hands were heavier, and the person fell unsteadily in the quilt, I don't know where the shock was uncomfortable, Tan Wanqing snorted, curled up, and unconsciously put his hands on his knees.

It's okay not to fold it, but if you fold it like this, the long hair will be draped, and then it will go down......

Xie Chengzu only glanced at it in a hurry, and then felt a little dizzy in front of him.

What time is it? It's like this in the sun......

The heat that had faded a little, but the color of that glance suddenly soared wildly, and he bowed slightly and held his hands on the edge.

He stretched out his hand and pulled the quilt with great difficulty to block it, and said as if he was talking to himself to remind himself: "No, don't ...... in the daytime" This is really against the law of etiquette and ......

He gasped and looked away, ready to get up to leave, but as soon as his feet moved, his eyes saw his newly changed robe, the position under his abdomen, the traces of contamination on the hem of the brand-new clothes, the moment he saw the imprint, no matter how firm the person was, his eyes were red, and his concentration began to collapse like a burst, he couldn't help but look up at the person between the quilts, only to see the snow-white calf folded in the crook of his arm deliberately swaying towards him, the person had already woken up, and when he looked at him, he even smiled proudly at him.

At this time, he is a wooden man, I'm afraid I can't bear it anymore, Xie Chengzu only felt that something in his mind was broken loudly, he quickly reached out to untie his belt, I don't know whether it was angry or annoyed, he shook off the placket and hem, and then shook off the curtain with his hand.

The curtain was shaken violently by the force, just as the people in the tent were at this time.

The first month did not really wait until the third day of the new year to return, but returned to the house on the morning of the first day of the new year, Rui Zhu was surprised, felt that this little girl was very sensible, although there were only three days after the year, but she took care of the young lady, but also took care of some Fu Meng, Fu Meng's nurse also returned to her hometown in the past two days, she really couldn't take care of it alone.

Ruizhu pondered the time, at this time Miss was probably called up by the adult, so she asked the first month to go over with a pot of hot water, and mix the warm water used to clear the noodles, she came after she was busy, and the first month carried the pot of hot water to the door, and when she was about to push it open, she heard a sound like a warbler crying inside, as if suffering a great pain, and there seemed to be great joy, that is, the first month is small, and after the New Year, it is thirteen years old, and there is always a sense of understanding, listening to the voice, suddenly ignorant of what is happening inside, and suddenly the face is red and the ears are red, After only standing for a stop, he turned around and ran out.

Although it is cold outside, but the sun is hanging high, the teenage girl first meets the feelings, things, only to feel ashamed, no place to be ashamed, but no matter how young she is, she knows that this matter is not polite, in broad daylight, people come and go outside, how can it ......

How so...... Such an immorality? is the daughter of the Zhuang family, and it is shameless to know this......

————

When Tan Wanqing got up, it was really noon, and after Lord Xie helped her put on her clothes, she left in a hurry as if she was a little unsightly.

She didn't eat in the morning, she didn't feel hungry, she just leaned on the collapse, lazily Ren Ruizhu took care of her makeup and hair, Ruizhu's courage was already scared out by her young lady, although she knew about it, but what should she do, not like the first month.

Her young lady has her own ideas in her heart, but it's not that you can persuade if you want to, and as the eldest lady's personal maid, others may think that Tan Wanqing is gentle and virtuous, but a few of their maids know that in fact, their own young lady is actually not so dogmatic, and she is just idle and passable on weekdays, but if there is something she cares about, it will be so bold that it makes people numb.

"Miss, I think since Master Xie came, your complexion has been getting better day by day." Ruizhu looked at the glass mirror on the dressing table, it was much clearer than the bronze mirror, the mirror was an object in the wedding gift box given by Lord Xie, Ruizhu thought that Miss would like it, so she took it out and used it.

Tan Wanqing looked at the mirror at this time, thinking that last night, she was in front of this mirror...... She couldn't help blushing, don't look at Xie Chengzu as serious, he is really a teacher who is tired of the apprentice, and he can bully the newcomer at the beginning and make him blush, but now it doesn't take long for her turn to be red-faced.

"It's a bit good." Tan Wanqing said casually, but secretly said in her heart, the harmony of yin and yang is naturally good.

Seeing this, Ruizhu immediately said, "Miss thinks so too? I just said, in the past, in Tanfu, Miss had a fever three or five times every winter, but this year there is only one time, or go out to come back, cold, and Miss now has a short nap time, used to sleep for two or three hours in winter, now half an hour is enough, look at not only the complexion, but also the energy is much better......

She didn't say the next sentence, Tan Wanqing in the past, she immediately had back pain after a few more bumps, and now she ...... That Lord Xie's strength is not much stronger than a horse, but Miss is a little uncomfortable except for the first few times, but now there is no discomfort, Rui Zhu thought that Lord Xie pitied Miss, but when he listened to it a few times, it was not pity at all.

It could only be that the young lady's body bones were much better than in previous years.

Tan Wanqing and Rui Zhu are sisters, and they don't shy away from it, they listen to it in their hearts, think about it, and think that what she said has a few truths, but they don't think about it, but now they feel that although they have been a little sleepy recently, their spirits are much better.

Is it really as Ruizhu said, this small boundary of Wei'an City is a place to raise people?

Ruizhu on both sides of the hairpin three pinched gold wire hollow peacock hairpins, each peacock under the mouth and a string of glowing purple pink pearls, dressed in the expensive and delicate, Tan Wanqing looked at the glass mirror, very satisfied with Ruizhu's craftsmanship, has never had accessories combed hair before, there is also this potential, really praised a few sentences.

Ruizhu was very happy, and became more and more interested in the matching of several boxes of jewelry, and wondered how to look good when she had nothing to do.

The more you say she is good, the more she will come to a good place, everyone is like this, even a five-year-old child is no exception, thinking of Fuyin, she asked, "Why don't you see that little monkey coming?" ”

"Oh, Master Xie took Fuyin away when he left, miss." It's not that he is called Fuyin Little Monkey, but that he is too thin, as thin as a little monkey, Ruizhu thought of something, and took out a box from the dresser, "This is what I asked to give to Miss when the adults left." ”

"Oh?" Tan Wanqing listened, and casually reached out to take it, he has been sending things to the house during this time, how many belongings does Lord Xie have, she just has an eye, and she also knows that these things in the house are enough for him to sell most of his life over the years.

The box in my hand is not big, the style is very old, and the carving seems to be a woman's makeup box, but both the wood and the carving are quite cheap, and I am afraid that when I buy it, it is only a hundred dollars.

"Did he say what was this?" Tan Wanqing looked at it, and did not open it immediately, but asked Xiang Ruizhu.

Ruiju shook her head.

Tan Wanqing glanced at the box again, since it is a cheap thing, it is still kept now, there must be some meaning of preservation, she paused, opened the box lightly, and there was a pair of white jade bracelets with a good hue inside, and a few pieces of silver jewelry that were quite delicate, but the appearance was a little more in the middle, far less than the current new style.

took out the jewelry, and under the box were two house deeds and a hundred taels of silver tickets.

One is the house where she lives now, and the other is Tan Wanqing, although she doesn't know the place, she also knows that it must be the residence of Xie's mother before her death.

Tan Wanqing looked at it for a while, then put the things back one by one, waved her hand to let Ruizhu out, she leaned on the collapse and looked at the box in a daze, the afternoon sun outside the window was quite strong, and half of the face of the person leaning on the beauty collapsed was outlined, the outline was extremely beautiful, the surrounding was like a layer of melted gold, the slightly wide collar faded slightly due to her movements, revealing half of the slender neck, white and delicate, like a tooth carving, in such a warm light, the whole person was quiet, and even the expression had an indescribable gentle charm.

I don't know how long it took to sigh faintly.

Of course, she knew what this box represented, and at this moment, this box, which was not very valuable compared to the other things she had sent, was a little heavy in her hand.

In her subconscious, this polygamous, even a wife is nothing more than a professional dynasty, she does not have to give to any man, and it is not worth letting go of any feelings, because there is a legal third, fourth, or even fifth, several.

Once you fall in love, it hurts.

Life is in a hurry, and it is in a hurry, and it is this body that does not know how long it can live, so why bother, why bother with yourself.

She escaped, originally just wanted to find a quiet and undisturbed place, a stable life, do not have to worry about the many trivial matters of the high door, enjoy the plum chrysanthemum in her spare time, sleep on the pillow when she is sleepy, and raise her pen to paint when she is interested.

However, in the end, it is still naïve, this wish is more difficult than ascending to the sky, I am afraid that it only exists in a paradise. She still relied on the man, and by his wings, she had such a respite now.

And what made her heart shake even more was that when she thought it was earlier, a heart had fallen unconsciously.

It's too bad to like someone! When she realized it, this love was sweet and painful, but her heart was too tired, and she had been frightened for many years in Tanfu, and now people are like her heart, floating and uncertain, and duckweed has no roots.

The most painful thing for people is not the moment when the head is cut off, but the knife that hangs over the head and does not fall for a long time, hanging for more than ten years.

Therefore, she desperately longs for such a person to make her safe, to have such a warmth that can make her nostalgic and dependent, she has been uneasy for too long, and needs such a stable life too much.

But now how sweet and liking my heart is, how afraid and helpless I am of the unknown future, because no matter my identity or otherwise, there are too many loopholes that can destroy this relationship.

She thought of what she had done to Xu Jin, who was thousands of miles away in the capital.

The mother who had never met and died in less than thirty.

And the pity in the eyes of those doctors when they looked at her, now that I think about it, I'm afraid that the Dong family would have known it early, and didn't he know that she would be like her short-lived mother, and she wouldn't live long......

Thinking of Xie Chengzu again, and the box in front of him......

Tan Wanqing only felt a splitting headache for a while, and her heart was in a trance.
