Chapter 65: Xu Lin and Xu Xiachu

When the joy fades and the people are gone, the arrow pavilion will be cold and miserable. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Cuiguo had been standing behind Duanyue for almost two hours, tired and hungry, Duanyue hurriedly took a few pastries from the table and stuffed them into Cuiguo's hands. While walking briskly, he leaned around Cuiguo and urged in a low voice. "Eat quickly! Don't let anyone see it! ”

"County Lord, where is Master Hou?" Cuiguo chewed the soft glutinous pastry, couldn't help but poke her head out and look around, the crumbs in her mouth splashed out like little stars between the words, and Duanyue hurriedly raised her sleeves to block it, so as to avoid this "light rain".

Duanyue dusted off her sleeves, not showing obvious disgust. She paced towards the Gate of the Mantis, intending to leave the palace and return to the house.

"My brother said that he went to find his uncle, anyway, he is so old that he will not lose it." She turned her head to look at Emerald. "Is the carriage ready?"

Cuiguo's mouth stopped, and she was still stunned in the first half of Duanyue's sentence, not knowing what she was thinking. Duanyue looked at her and frowned slightly, and Cuiguo reacted at this time, hurriedly put down the pastry in her hand, and smiled again and again. "The carriage has always been waiting outside the palace gate, and the county lord can sit directly when he goes out." She paused, inexplicably hesitating. "That'...... We went back in the carriage, why did Master Hou come? ”

Duanyue glanced at her as if unintentionally, and her tone was cold and yin and yang. "Cuiguo, how do I think you have always been absent-minded, caring about my brother more than me." She raised her hand and pulled her hair in a bun, and the osmanthus head oil was smeared on the palm of her hand, exuding a sweet and greasy aroma, and smelling too much was disgusting.

"How so?!" When Cuiguo heard this, she immediately became in a hurry, and she lowered her head in her heart, and her hands were twisted together very uneasily. "I am a subordinate in the Ninghou Mansion, and the Hou Ye and the county lord are both masters to me, isn't it the county lord that you told me that you must serve the master wholeheartedly?"

"That's true, but it's better not to cross the line." Duanyue took a deep breath and asked Cuiguo. "How old are you?"

"I ...... Eighteen years old. Cuiguo didn't expect Duanyue to suddenly change the topic, but seeing Duanyue's black face, she didn't dare to ask again, so she could only suppress her curiosity in her heart and answer timidly.

Duanyue pinched her chin and thought about it, then nodded suddenly. "Eighteen, according to ordinary people, it should be married. One day to help you find a good family, you don't have to work so hard. ”

As soon as Cuiguo heard the "poof", she knelt on the ground, pulling Duanyue's skirt, and her eyes turned red instantly. She raised her head to look at Duanyue, and the reluctance revealed in her eyes was so real and not false.

"Cuiguo doesn't want to get married, Cuiguo just wants to serve next to the county lord!" Tears fell from her eyes, and a ripple splashed on the bluestone slab of the palace road, such a miserable scene, it was really sad to see it. Cuiguo has been staying by Duanyue's side for four years, Duanyue looked at her face so beautifully, her nose was sour, and she suddenly couldn't bear it.

She turned her face away, looked at the bright apricot blossoms on the palace wall, and swallowed tears into her stomach.

"Whether it's a man or a woman, one day they will have to find a home. You can't follow me for the rest of your life. ”

Cuiguo cried and shook her head. "What's wrong with following the county lord for the rest of your life? Cuiguo has long been a fatherless, motherless, and helpless person, and some are only the county lord! ”

"Get up first!" Duanyue bent down slightly, tugging at Cuiguo's arm to get her up. "It's like this in the palace, so that others don't know how to chew their tongues behind their backs." She frowned and muttered quietly.

Cuiguo immediately wiped away her tears, and she stood up with a force, biting her lower lip tightly, her red and bloody lips dripping red. The eyebrows were lowered, and there were fine tears hanging on the long eyelashes, and the thin shoulders were shaking with sobs from time to time, but they didn't dare to make a sound.

Xu Lin walked out alone, and Duanyue immediately pulled the cuiguo behind him and greeted Xu Lin with a smile. "Why is Uncle Xu so lonely by himself."

"I'm so old, what's so strange about being alone, but where did Xiaofeng go?" Xu Lin looked at Duanyue's smiling mouth and grinned behind his ears.

The thing he wanted most in his life was to have a caring daughter, but he didn't expect that he would give birth to a stubborn rebel like Xu Xiachu, who was really angry Xu Lin had a headache every day. Duanyue is Shen Changfeng's little daughter again, so Xu Lin naturally regards her as a treasure in his heart, and he is so happy every time he sees Duanyue.

"Huh?" Duanyue looked puzzled. "My brother and Uncle Murong said that the matter went, didn't you ask Uncle Xu to go with you?" According to common sense, every time the wind talks about the military, Xu Lin will definitely be there, but looking at the situation, this time Xu Lin didn't know at all.

Xu Lin laughed "hehe", and he nodded. "Oh? Is it? I really don't know. Xiaofeng has grown up a lot now, I think General Murong should have a special explanation, between the two of them, I don't listen to the old man. He pointed to the cuiguo behind Duanyue and asked kindly. Satsuki, what's wrong with you? Don't bully you if those palace people in the palace don't know Taishan, right? ”

"Uncle Xu, you're too worried!" Duanyue shook her head with a smile, she glanced at Cuiguo, and explained to Xu Lin very lightly. "How dare anyone bully me, it's just that this girl was wronged by me after I said a word or two."

"Oh!" Xu Lin nodded reassuringly.

He suddenly became restrained, his throat rolling up and down, his mouth opening and closing several times without uttering a word. After a while, he was embarrassed to ask Duanyue. "Is that kid in Xia Chu doing well in Ninghou Mansion?"

Duanyue thought for a moment and smiled knowingly. "Uncle Xu, don't worry, Xu Xiachu is more comfortable in Ninghou Mansion than Xu Mansion. Eat and drink well every day, just walk around if you have nothing to do, nothing unsatisfactory. She had an idea, thinking that since Uncle Xu had talked about this topic first, there was no need to think about going around here.

She looked at Xu Lin and smiled dryly. "Uncle Xu...... Just blame me for being troublesome, what happened to you and Xu Xiachu? No matter how discordant the father and son are, don't be so angry. ”

"Xiaoyue, you don't have to worry about this." Xu Lin sighed lightly, he didn't say what happened, but left silently with his hands behind his back.
