The night was low, and the lights in the houses were bright. Most of the girls are waiting outside the door, only Liu Ruoxi's personal service Chang Mama took the two big girls of Layue and June in the house, occasionally came out to gather some fragrant tea and fruits, but they were all light and unwilling to raise their voices between words. Inside and outside the house, it was quiet.

Liu Ruoxi and Rong Chenghan had dinner early, and Liu Ruoxi was sitting on the couch at this moment. A low table was set up in front of her, and Liu Ruoxi was spreading out her pen and concentrating on writing. A strand of green silk hung down from her sideburns, clinging to her snow-white neck, smoothly on her chest. This makes her silhouette in the candlelight add a bit of tenderness and charm in addition to the pretty/beauty.

Rong Chenghan had just taken a shower, and his hair was not raised, only hanging behind him. He walked out wearing only a brown brocade embellishment, and when he raised his eyes, he saw Liu Ruoxi's silhouette. Rong Chenghan didn't make a sound, but stood up, looked at Liu Ruoxi for a long time, and then walked to the couch.

It wasn't until Rong Chenghan walked to the couch that Liu Ruoxi noticed it. However, Liu Ruoxi did not look up, but still concentrated on writing.

"What do you write, Auntie?" Rong Chenghan asked, and he had already leaned over.

Feeling the heat of Rong Chenghan's breath, Liu Ruoxi had to stop her pen and glanced at Rong Chenghan while raising her head. Rong Chenghan was so close that she almost wrote a word badly.

"Copy a Diamond Sutra for my father." Liu Ruoxi bluntly told Rong Chenghan. This is the homework she had to do every day after waking up in the embroidery building that day, in order to ask the gods and Buddhas to bless the second master and Mrs. Liu to be safe, which also inevitably has the meaning of repaying her wishes. No matter what, to be able to live again, to have the opportunity to change her fate and protect the safety of her family, Liu Ruoxi is grateful.

Rong Chenghan did not leave immediately because of Liu Ruoxi's answer, but took a closer look. Liu Ruoxi's words were taught by Master Liu Er himself. It can also be seen that it has worked hard. Duanli is mellow and faintly full of wind bones. Rong Chenghan had already seen Liu Ruoxi's words and appreciated them very much. Now watching Liu Ruoxi copying the Diamond Sutra, the person who can write such a good character was married by him and became his daughter-in-law, Rong Chenghan was proud and a little proud in his heart.

"Go and sit down with you, and don't delay me from copying the scriptures." Liu Ruoxi gently pushed Rong Chenghan.

Rong Chenghan smiled and sat down opposite Liu Ruoxi.

"Add one more piece of clothing. It's warm in the house, but you should also be careful of catching a cold during this season. Liu Ruoxi saw that Rong Chenghan was only wearing a straight dress, so she said, while asking the girl to bring the clothes over, she asked Rong Chenghan again, "Have you dried your hair?" Be sure to wipe it dry, otherwise you will be careful of headaches in the future. ”

"Wipe it off." Rong Chenghan replied, while already draping the robe that June had brought over his shoulders.

"Hmm." Liu Ruoxi glanced at it again. Seeing that Rong Chenghan's hair was indeed dry, he lowered his head and continued to copy her scriptures.

It's just a few words, which are extremely natural for Liu Ruoxi. Childhood. She was by the side of Second Master Liu and Second Mrs. Liu, and she was familiar with how Second Mrs. Liu took care of Second Mrs. Liu, and now she has become a parent. Although there is still some estrangement between Rong Chenghan and Rong Chenghan in her heart, she is doing these things almost instinctively.

After doing this, Liu Ruoxi didn't feel anything at all. However, for Rong Chenghan, this little bit of warmth and touch, when combined, is a joy that can wrap his body and mind. Rong Chenghan sat on the couch and looked at Liu Ruoxi for a while. Seeing that Liu Ruoxi was concentrating, Rong Chenghan no longer bothered Liu Ruoxi, and took a few official documents and read them slowly.

After a while, Rong Chenghan also took a pen and began to write his note. He didn't need anyone to study ink anymore, so he used Liu Ruoxi to study it.

By the time Liu Ruoxi finished copying a volume of scriptures, Rong Chenghan's article had not yet been written. Liu Ruoxi lightly picked up the copied scriptures, and helped Rong Chenghan study some ink. Rong Chenghan caught a glimpse of it out of the corner of his eye, and sighed, which can be regarded as an acknowledgement. After a while, Rong Chenghan also put down the pen and breathed softly.

"What is written?" Liu Ruoxi asked.

"Recently, the official affairs to be handled by the yamen will be presented tomorrow." Rong Chenghan said, thought about it, and handed the draft to Liu Ruoxi, "Auntie help me take a look." ”

Liu Ruoxi naturally took it. Although Rong Chenghan admitted that he was naughty when he was a child and refused to learn, after all, he was a child of a family, and he always had some children's skills. Later, he went to the north, and he didn't need to be supervised, but he had a motivated heart, and after returning to Beijing, he was ordered and taught by Liu Er. Rong Chenghan's handwriting is already quite impressive, although it cannot be compared with those Hanlin bachelors in terms of literary style, but it is better than concise and capable. Liu Ruoxi finished reading Rong Chenghan's draft, which turned out to be a document for preparing for military training and adding ordnance.

"It's better for Grandma to help me polish and polish." Rong Chenghan said.

"Well......" Liu Ruoxi saw Rong Chenghan say this, and did not shirk, on the one hand, she asked Rong Chenghan a little question, and on the other hand, she helped to add or subtract polish on the draft. In the past, at home, Liu Ruoxi grew up watching the folds and official documents of the second master Liu. Liu Ruoxi is studious, and the second master Liu also loves to teach. To say that these official articles are familiar to her.

After the addition was completed, Liu Ruoxi took a look at it herself, and handed it back to Rong Chenghan.

“…… It's just that I'm happy, but I don't care. Tomorrow you can go and tell the masters to cook. ”

"Hmm." Rong Chenghan took the draft and read it carefully, but his face was happy, "With Auntie helping me polish it, where do I use what master." ”

"Don't be careless." Liu Ruoxi smiled, but admonished again.

"Nature." Liu Ruoxi was solemn, and Rong Chenghan replied solemnly. Both of them felt that the other was extremely safe in their hearts.

“…… When I asked you to call me Senior Sister, you were still unwilling. Liu Ruoxi suddenly thought of the old thing, and couldn't help but joke with Rong Chenghan, "Although I am a little younger than you, I am not boasting, I have been studying for a lot longer than you." Call me senior sister, and you won't suffer. ”

Liu Ruoxi gestured to the strip Chen in Rong Chenghan's hand.

Liu Ruoxi said this, which also reminded Rong Chenghan of when the two had just met, and he had only worshiped the second master Liu as a gentleman. At that time, Liu Ruoxi somehow looked at him unpleasantly, made all kinds of difficulties, and wanted him to retreat. Thinking of the old things, Rong Chenghan did not feel the slightest annoyance, but found it particularly interesting, even the tea he drank just now seemed to be a little sweet.

"You didn't mention it, I almost forgot." Rong Chenghan deliberately straightened his face. Speaking of which, Rong Chenghan's beard was already a little scary, and this face actually had the momentum of stopping children's night crying. It's just that Liu Ruoxi, who was sitting opposite, was not afraid at all.

"Why don't you like it?" Rong Chenghan finally asked the question that had been pressed in his heart.

Liu Ruoxi teased Rong Chenghan, but she didn't think that it would arouse Rong Chenghan to settle old accounts with her. Liu Ruoxi smiled and said that she didn't look at Rong Chenghan unpleasantly, and planned to be vague, but Rong Chenghan made up his mind, it was not easy to ask before, and he couldn't ask, but now he doesn't need to scruples.

"What else can it be," in the end, Liu Ruoxi had no choice but to say, "It's not because I'm scared when I see you for the first time." ”

Rong Chenghan was skeptical, but he still touched his beard.

"I scared you like this?" Rong Chenghan asked very seriously, do you want to shave off your beard, but Liu Ruoxi said that she didn't hate his beard and didn't let him shave it.

"Do you think I'm scared now?" After getting along with Rong Chenghan for a long time, Liu Ruoxi found that her wariness of Rong Chenghan was gradually weakening. Although the estrangement in my heart is still there, the slowly increasing trust cannot be ignored. Liu Ruoxi was worried that if the two continued to talk like this, she would tell the secret hidden in her heart. And now, it's not the time at all. Therefore, Liu Ruoxi simply diverted the topic.

Feeling Liu Ruoxi's evasion, Rong Chenghan's eyes flashed slightly, and he didn't continue to ask.

At this time, there were footsteps and talking outside, and after a while, Mama Chang walked in. It turned out that it was late at night unconsciously, and the grandmother who was patrolling the night in the palace passed by outside Yunshui Ju, and when she saw the bright lights in the upper room, she came over to ask.

Liu Ruoxi glanced at Rong Chenghan and did not speak. This is the case on the wedding night, and it is still the case today, it must have been specially ordered by the Su family.

"Let her go by herself, I just read two official documents, and I'll rest." Rong Chenghan said to Mama Chang, while deliberately raising her voice.

Mama Chang agreed to go out, and after a while, she heard footsteps go away.

……

Chunhui Hall, Su Shi has not slept yet, she is sitting on the couch, listening to the reply of the mother-in-law who patrols the night.

“…… The old slave asked in the past, and it was the Hou Ye who sent a message, saying that it was too late to read the official document and he was going to rest. …… The lights were bright, and I looked at the shadows on the window from a distance, and the Hou Ye and Mrs. were next to each other, talking and laughing. Master Hou and Mrs. have a good relationship. It's in one place during the day, and it's still in one place at night, and it seems that there are always endless words...... "The mother-in-law who patrols the night is a lot of words, Su Shi asked her, and she crackled and said a lot. Later, it was said that Rong Chenghan and Liu Ruoxi were like glue, and their faces were even more smiling, adding oil and vinegar.

The mother-in-law said long-winded, but Su didn't seem to be annoyed. However, after listening to the mother-in-law's words, Su's face had no expression, and he only ordered someone to reward the mother-in-law who was patrolling the night and sent the mother-in-law away.

"Princess, it's late at night, it's time to rest." The man who served in the room stepped forward and spoke softly.

"Let's rest." Su nodded, but a pair of eyes looked out.

The old prince said that he had official business today, so he rested in the outer study. Su remembered that when she first entered the palace, at that time, Prince Yongjing was in the prime of life, but he was also devoted to government affairs, and he would rest in the outer study whenever he had official business. And he didn't have any official business one day. Of the ten days, eight or nine days were spent in the study.

It wasn't until after that incident that things changed. (To be continued......)
