Acacia put down the scroll in her hand with a little sleepiness, tomorrow is the big day of autumn, and she rarely loses sleep after sleeping in bed for a long time. She put on her coat and slowly walked to the window, the eldest brother had already lived in the county lord's mansion, and now he almost forbade Mo Li to sneak into her backyard every day on the grounds of reading, which made her relax for a few days.

As autumn approaches, the moon in the sky is getting rounder and rounder.

"Sanniang...... Acacia ......"

Acacia took the lamp and pushed the door open, and saw a person standing in the courtyard with his head bowed and motionless.

After thinking about it, Acacia called tentatively: "Second brother? ”

The candlelight and moonlight shone on this person's face at the same time, and it was indeed Meng Duanfang, who had not been seen for a long time.

The smile on Meng Duanfang's face was a little reluctant, he looked at the already slim lovesickness, swallowed the bitterness in his mouth, turned his head and said, "I'm here to say goodbye to you." ”

Acacia was a little reluctant, but Meng Huoran made it clear that day, thinking that Meng Duanfang was going to serve the general's account and go to the border to serve as a soldier together.

"When will you come back? The eldest aunt cherishes you the most, and the last time the eldest sister also asked about your recent situation. "Although Acacia wants to try his best to keep it, but in the end, a good man is ambitious in all directions, Meng Huoran as long as Qiuqiu High School, the emperor will always protect him, and the uncle's family is temporarily hiding in the Zhuangzi of the Hou Mansion without worrying about his life, and now only Meng Duanfang does not want to take the imperial examination and has no way out, so he can't waste this good time.

"My mother, she ......" Meng Duanfang smiled bitterly, and then said with a strong spirit: "This border pass is different, whether it is internal or external, I can always make a career, if the eldest brother and Mo Liang can help the emperor get through the difficulties, the court can always stand on their feet." Although Fu Ningzhun is brave and strategic, but his heart is too soft and too pure, so he needs someone like me who is naturally cunning to work together. ”

"Second Brother ......"

Meng Duanfang raised his hand to stop what Acacia was about to say: "Don't say it, don't let me stay, I'm just here to see if you're doing well this time." ”

Acacia held the oil lamp and smiled: "Now that I see it, can you rest assured?" ”

Meng Duanfang looked at Acacia almost greedily, and then said in a low voice: "If that kid from Moli bullies you in the future, no matter where I am in the future, I will definitely come back and ask for his life!" ”

Acacia nose soured, quickly went back to the house and took out a bag from the bottom of the cabinet, came out and handed it to Meng Duanfang and said: "Big brother said before that you were leaving, I just thought about what to do for you, the uniform hair clothes in the barracks, but the clothes are different from Kyoto, the eldest sister made two for you, I made two pairs of shoes for you, you can take them together." ”

Meng Duanfang took the burden and hugged it in his arms, his eyes really couldn't suppress the tears that were about to fall, he turned his back and choked up: "After I leave, you take care of yourself, I will always come back for as little as three years or as many as five years." ”

"The sword has no eyes on the battlefield, and although there is no war now, it is not peaceful after all." Thinking that Mo Li's father died inexplicably, he reminded: "It is best to drink water and eat things with others, some people show favor does not mean that they are with you, and now the three forces of the border pass are intertwined, and it is always right for you to see more and say less." ”

Meng Duanfang wiped his face with his sleeve, turned around and said viciously: "It's just a little girl who came to teach me a lesson again!" You are so nagging, be careful to scare away the mohly. ”

Acacia just smiled at him, as usual, that gaze was like looking at an ignorant child.

Meng Duanfang was angry, and he opened his legs and walked out.

"Take care, second brother!" Acacia stood in the courtyard and did not send each other off.

Meng Duan didn't look back, just waved his hand in the air, and the tears had already fallen silently again.

Out of the courtyard gate, Meng Duanfang passed by the corner and paused, said a low word and flew out of the wall with luck.

"If you dare to empathize with her in the future, I would rather raise her for the rest of my life!"

Mo Liang walked out of the corner with a gloomy face, looked at Meng Duanfang's distant back and said, "If it weren't for the fact that you are her own brother, how could you be allowed to enter the mansion so lightly?" Meng Duanfang, don't die at the border. ”

The next day, Acacia sent her brother and Mo Li out of the house in a trance, she was just a woman in the house can only take care of their food, clothing, housing and transportation, and the rest of the way will depend on them.

"Girl, don't worry, with the Mo son, the eldest son will be fine." Pomegranate thought that he was lovesick, worried that Meng Huoran would be recognized if he went to Yirong.

Acacia just stood at the door and watched the carriages coming and going at the street corner in the distance.

"Prepare the car." Acacia said suddenly.

"Girl, where are you going?" Pomegranate was puzzled.

"Go back to Ding'anbo Mansion." Acacia turned around and prepared to go back to the house to change clothes.

"Uncle hasn't come back again, the second master is at home!" Pomegranate followed Acacia with her skirt.

Acacia paused, but still insisted: "Go back and see Shiro." ”

Acacia actually regretted it a little the moment she got into the carriage, but she asked her to stop the carriage and go back to the house, and she felt that it was too hypocritical and unnecessary. Before, she stood at the gate and watched Mo Liang and her eldest brother go away, and when she saw that her parents and children were very close to her on this street, she didn't know why her head was hot, and she remembered Meng Duanfang, who left last night, and Meng Shilang, who had not seen her for a long time and was related to her.

Last time, he was holding her leg and calling her sister, and now that her father has returned home, the group of women doesn't know if they have come back.

"Girl, shall we go in from the main entrance and call the door?" Pomegranate asked timidly.

Acacia leaned on the window frame, thought for a moment and said: "Enter the Ding'an Bo Mansion first, and then go around the back door to see if the dumb four is there, I remember that the mother-in-law at the back door has received a lot of benefits from us." ”

"Yes."

The old family who looked for the doorkeeper of Ding'anbo Mansion opened the door, and then found the dumb four to come over and lead the way to the corner gate, and the corner door of the second room was really the old woman, and she turned a blind eye when she gave some money.

Coming out of the corner gate to the left is the courtyard where she used to live, and to the right is her mother's main house, Acacia didn't even glance at it, she simply walked to the left, bypassing her own yard and then going back is Aunt Xue's small courtyard. The small courtyard is still clean and clean, it looks like it has been cleaned up very well, the girl in front of Aunt Xue was stunned when she saw Acacia, she didn't expect Acacia to come back to see if she became the county lord.

"County ...... The county lord's mother ......, "The big girl has never seen the world, and she feels that the county lord is like ascending to the sky, and she has to kneel down when she sees lovesickness."

Acacia hurriedly grabbed her and asked, "Auntie, can I be in the house?" ”

The big girl nodded, endured and endured, but still couldn't help but said: "The county lord sent a lot of things last time, and I blame the slave and maid for not being vigilant enough to be seen by the grandmother next to the old lady, and most of the things have been taken away, and some of them are hidden." ”

"The old lady is back too?" Lovesick to the point that he doesn't care about that little thing, just let the dumb four send it.

"The eldest girl is back, too, these two days...... Aunt Mei was making a lot of noise......" The big girl whispered: "It is said that Aunt Jiu is pregnant." ”

"No wonder......" Acacia is in a good mood, how angry Aunt Mei was in her previous life, this Aunt Jiu was really sent by God to learn from Aunt Mei.

The eldest girl then whispered: "The eldest young master is reluctant to come back this time, but the slave maid heard that the eldest young master has a very good relationship with Aunt Jiu, and there are a few more considerate people sent by Aunt Jiu in the courtyard. ”

"The old lady and the second master didn't care?" Lovesick doesn't believe in such a method, her father can't see it.

The big girl opened the curtain and let Acacia enter the house, and continued beside her: "Those are the red sleeves and incense, and they also urge the son to read all day long, so the master didn't say much." ”

Acacia sneered, urging reading without crooked thoughts? That is, her confident father will be like this, but no matter what, it is none of her business whether it is good or bad.

"Sister! My sister came to see Shiro? ”

As soon as her thighs tightened, Acacia looked down and saw Shiro holding her and raising her little face, obviously not forgetting her.

Acacia didn't know how to face his younger brother, and wanted to keep a straight face but couldn't bear it, so he had to touch his head stiffly and said, "How are you doing?" ”

Shiro rubbed his little face and said, "Shiro eats very well, sleeps very well, sister asks Auntie!" ”

Aunt Xue stood behind Shiro, her face was a little tired, but she still smiled very softly and said, "The fourth young master is very well-behaved, I have never seen a child so obedient." ”

"Sister, Shiro already knows how to read, Shiro reads to his sister?" Shiro grabbed the hem of Acacia's clothes, as if he was afraid that she would leave like that day.

Acacia sighed and hugged Shiro in his arms, listened to him recite a few words of enlightenment nursery rhymes, and then carried him to the chair next to him.

Aunt Xue served tea to Acacia, and wanted to bring Shiro back, but Shiro snuggled in Acacia's arms and always didn't cling, so she had to give up.

"Is the old lady making trouble for you again?" Acacia asked, touching Shiro's hair.

"It's nothing, it's just that the old lady came over a while ago to move Shiro over...... As a result, Shiro fell seriously ill that night, and the old lady was afraid that she would not take good care of her, so she sent it back. Aunt Xue looked at Shiro and said.

Where is the fear of not taking care of me? With the old lady's temperament, maybe she was afraid that Shiro's illness would cause bad luck in her yard, and she wanted to hug her before, but she might not be able to squeeze anyone?

"It's good that way, and it saves him the instability of going back and forth." Acacia felt that Shiro could grow up safely in this small yard, which was his greatest luck.

"But what the hell is Shiro a boy...... The slave is useless, and Shiro can still see the master at the old lady. For the first time, Aunt Xue blamed herself for not being favored.

Acacia felt that it didn't matter, she touched Shiro's head and said: "The more he is not favored, the better, and he can save getting involved, I heard that Aunt Jiu has a child, and there are more opportunities for goblins to fight in the future, and it is better for Shiro to be weak or safe." ”

Aunt Xue thought about it, and nodded helplessly.

"Wait for him to grow up a little more, I'll ask my eldest brother to come over and take him to enlightenment, and wait for those people to leave." Acacia felt Shiro grab his fingers and tug at him, so he had to hug him and watch his flickering eyelashes.

"I heard that there was a particularly luxurious carriage next door, but I didn't expect you to come back, tsk...... It's really not from our family, so I didn't even go to the main house this time. As soon as the door curtain opened, Meng Ruoyi walked in with a cold look in her eyes.
