"Brother Xiao......" Mu Yelai saw this scene, and his throat suddenly choked. She couldn't help but think of the previous life, Xiao Shi and Xianyi were angry horses, arrogant soldiers, servants like clouds, talking and laughing calmly rode in front of her, and there was no one else in her eyes from then on......

Xiao Shiji heard the voice, slowly raised his head, and looked at it with a calm gaze.

Mu Yelai hurriedly covered his mouth with his hands, leaned against the door, looked at him with tears and smiles, and called softly: "...... Brother Xiao. ”

As the sun sets, the small courtyard is filled with golden afterglow.

A tall honey locust tree stretched out from the opposite courtyard wall, and its shadows were slanted, covering half of the small courtyard.

A black crow stood in the branch of the honey locust tree, tilted its head, and looked at the two people standing and sitting in the courtyard, occasionally making a "quack" sound, breaking the silence of the small courtyard.

Xiao Shiji saw that it was Mu Yelai again, suffocated, lowered his head, quickly took a few mouthfuls of rice into his mouth, ate a large bowl of vegetable rice cleanly, and then got up, took the bowl and chopsticks to the big vat in the corner, and washed it clean with a scoop of water slurry bowls and chopsticks.

Mu Yelai hurriedly followed, and said, "Brother Xiao, let me come, I'll help you." ”

Xiao Shiji ignored her, turned around and took the washed dishes and chopsticks back to the kitchen and put them away.

Mu Yelai stopped, glanced into the courtyard, saw Xiao Shihe and the wooden barrel where he had soaked his clothes just now, hurriedly walked over, squatted down to wash Xiao Shihe's clothes.

Xiao Shiji strode over from behind, slashed her palm, pushed her staggering, and staggered away from the barrel.

"Go away." Xiao Shiji said lightly. He dragged the barrel to the edge of the steps, sat down, and reached in to scrub the clothes that had just been soaked in honey locust water.

Mu Yelai watched Xiao Shiji doing what these women should do, couldn't help but burst into tears, squatted beside Xiao Shiji, and said in a trembling voice: "Brother Xiao, don't be discouraged. The siege of the Turks is not something you can't solve, you can wait with confidence, Your Majesty will definitely activate you immediately. And he said, "These are all things that women do, don't do them." I'll do it for you. Brother Xiao. How can the small stone houses here be inhabited? Come with me to live in my house, I live alone in such a big house, I'm scared ......"

Xiao Shihe's hand that was washing clothes stopped and shook his head. Again, the phrase: "Go away." ”

Mu Yelai was a little angry. She couldn't think of Xiao Shiji or what to do to her?! Obviously, Du Hengshuang is gone. Don't want him anymore. Reconciled with him, he's still like this, what's the point?!

“…… Brother Xiao! "Mu Yelai still wants to go into the water to grind kung fu again. persuaded Xiao Shi to change his mind.

The courtyard door creaked, and it was pushed open again.

Xiao Shiji and Mu Yelai looked up together, but a gorgeous woman wearing a begonia red soft silk cloak, combing a moon-gazing bun, and a Qibao phoenix hairpin on her head stood at the door. ——It is Qi Yuexian, the lord of Suiyuan County.

Qi Yuexian came to Xiao Shiji's residence in Nancheng for the first time. She waited these days, and she didn't wait for His Majesty and the prince to change their minds, and her stepfather, Qi Xiaogong, the Prince of Nanning, was also a master who only remembered his own son, and he didn't plan for her. There was no way, she finally couldn't sit still and decided to come and take a look at Xiao Shiji.

As a result, the first time I came, I saw Mu Yelai and Xiao Shiji together.

Seeing her squatting beside Xiao Shihe, Qi Yuexian felt a little sour in her heart, seeing how close these two people were......

No wonder Xiao Shiji's original partner Du Hengshuang will ask for his own ......

Qi Yuexian tasted the relationship between Xiao Shihe and Mu Yelai in her heart, and walked over and blessed Xiao Shihe.

"Lord Xiao," Qi Yuexian said politely, "Miss Mu is right, the siege of the Turks must be solved by Lord Xiao." Lord Xiao has the courage to be unstoppable, and when he killed the Turks in Mobei, he not only relied on the battle array, but also relied on bravery! The Turks were originally a people from outside the country, and they only served strong forces and sword soldiers. To deal with them, you can only be more ruthless than them, more ferocious, and more murderous than them! ”

These words coincide with what Xiao Shihe said to Lu Dalang in the prison.

Xiao Shiji glanced at Qi Yuexian with some surprise. I really can't see that this woman still has this kind of insight...... But after thinking about it, Qi Yuexian was originally Xiao Miao's imperial concubine, and it was not strange to have such insight, so she lowered her head again, got up and twisted up the clothes in the wooden bucket, poured the water in the wooden bucket, and then scooped a few scoops of water from the large vat in the corner of the courtyard into the wooden bucket, and put the clothes that had just been wrung up into the wooden bucket.

Qi Yuexian looked at Xiao Shiji doing these jobs that shouldn't have been done by men, and was also a little sad, stunned for a while, and said in a low voice: "Lord Xiao, I'm sorry, I have no intention of destroying your family." I don't know how to say that your wife is not tolerant at all. I am willing to marry you purely because of a heart of admiration, admiration for you as a great hero who is not born in the world. Although His Majesty has decreed that he will join the heirs, in fact, as long as your wife is happy, I am willing to respect her, she is the biggest, and I am the smallest, but she won't give me this opportunity...... Brother Xiao, if you want, I can help you get your wife back, and I can go and plead with Your Majesty and restore your ......."

Xiao Shiji heard the sparks, and the fist in his hand was pinched and released, released and pinched, but he didn't want to quarrel with this woman in the yard...... Since Du Hengshuang left, he didn't even bother to speak, let alone quarrel with an irrelevant woman, so he just stretched out his arm, pointed to the courtyard door, and said coldly: "Get out!" ”

Qi Yuexian's face turned red all of a sudden. She didn't expect that she would be so low, and Xiao Shiji still didn't give her any face......

But she wasn't so easily discouraged.

Qi Yuexian's eyes rolled and looked at Mu Yelai, who was hiding behind Xiao Shi and her, without ignoring a snicker on her lips.

"Miss Mu, you can say something. Lord Xiao listens to you the most. Qi Yuexian said deliberately.

Xiao Shiji's lips really pursed again, and they were pursed tightly, making his expression even more solemn.

Mu Ye came to see Qi Yuexian leading the fire to her, secretly scolded Qi Yuexian in his heart, walked out from behind Xiao Shiji, and said with some grievances: "Suiyuan County Lord, what do you mean by that?" If it weren't for His Majesty's decree to let you and Sister Du go together, how could Sister Du leave Brother Xiao? - yes. Brother Xiao? ”

After speaking, seeing Xiao Shihe's solemn expression and not saying a word, Mu Yelai rolled his eyes and said, "Of course, Sister Du is too strong. In fact, if she thinks about this kind of thing wholeheartedly, she will not do anything to ask for her own court, and Brother Xiao will not have to resist the decree, let alone be robbed. Therefore, if you can't think about your man wholeheartedly, if you can't think about it wholeheartedly. I can't bear to be humiliated. In fact, it is not worth the love of men......"

Xiao Shiji tilted his head and looked at Mu Yelai coldly, still not speaking.

Mu Yelai had a smile on his face, gradually. Under the gaze of Xiao Shiji. Some can't hold on anymore. The smile on his face became more and more stiff, and he was a little flustered in his heart, and he wrung the handkerchief in his hand with both hands. Biting his lower lip, he said again: "...... If I were Brother Xiao's wife, I would never have done so much like Sister Du. For the sake of Brother Xiao's future, I can endure anyone and endure any hardship......" After speaking, he looked at Xiao Shiji more and more affectionately, waiting for him to say something with great expectation.

Bang Dang!

There was another bang at the courtyard gate.

This time, the tortured courtyard gate finally couldn't stand it anymore, and with a thud, the whole door fell off the door frame and fell to the ground.

An old woman in her sixties stood at the door with a bowl of steaming chicken in her hand, pointing at Mu Yelai and Qi Yuexian and shouting, "You guys are enough!" squeezed out other people's original wives, and went to maggots in front of other people's men, do you want to be ashamed?! - Ah, shameless! With that, he strode in.

When he came to Xiao Shiji's side, the old woman first stuffed the bowl of chicken in her hand into Xiao Shiji's hand, and said angrily: "It's my old man who wants to send it to you!" Don't thank me! - Go! Go back to the house and put on your clothes, look at you like this, hooking up with these shirtless, no wonder your wife can't stand it. I'm telling you, even women can't stand it! ”

Xiao Shiji was stunned for a moment, looked at the courtyard gate that was pushed to the ground by the old woman, and had only one thought in his heart: this door is simply an ornament, and his house is also the same as a vegetable garden, anyone can come whenever they want......

The old woman was the wife of the old protector who guarded the city gate with Xiao Shihe. She and the old protector were originally pitiful Xiao Shihe who was separated by those people, and from a general admired by everyone, to a useless gatekeeper, so they took care of him very much on weekdays.

But I didn't expect to listen to such a good show at the door today.

"Are you the third lady of the Muhou Mansion? I tell you, you're a shame on a woman! People are people who have wives, do you know what it means to have a wife? ! Ah——!h Now you forced other people's wives away, you are ruthless, but do you want to be cheap to this extent, everyone is gone, and you are still pouring dirty water on them! I'm ——! As he spoke, he spat on Mu Yelai's face.

Xiao Shiji made a straight face, turned around and entered the house, and slammed the door shut.

When Mu Ye came to see Xiao Shihe and actually left, he was angry and hateful, and said to the old woman: "What are you crazy about? Who are you Brother Xiao? I want you to mind his business! ”

"I'm not him, so who are you? If I see someone, I call my brother, if I were your mother, I would break your legs, and I wouldn't let you come out and be embarrassed! If you don't do it, you have to be a concubine aunt, do you think it's great to be a concubine? Don't be a little wife just because you're a little woman. You despise yourself like this, no one will treat you as a human being! I advise you to die of this heart, if Lord Xiao can't see who you are, his official son will be lost in vain! ”

The old woman was so embarrassed that Mu Yelai said it, and said angrily: "What nonsense are you talking about? I don't know as much as you do! With that, he hurriedly ran out of Xiao Shiji's small courtyard.

The old woman scolded Mu Yelai, and then turned to look at Qi Yuexian, staring at her.

Qi Yuexian was frightened by the momentum of this old woman, took two steps back, and said vigilantly: "Don't mess around." I am the county lord, and I am personally married to Xiao Shi and his concubines, not the likes of concubines and aunts. ”

The old woman laughed strangely and said, "Hey, didn't you just say that you can respect other people's original wives as the big and you as the youngest?" Why is it backlash now? Dare to love what you just said was a fart! ”

"You mother-in-law, you speak vulgarly!" Qi Yuexian was trembling with anger from this old woman, it was just a show that she had just met a soldier, and she had a feeling that she couldn't speak.

"Am I vulgar? No matter how vulgar I am, I don't rob a man! The old woman was not at all afraid of Qi Yuexian's identity as the county lord, "Don't think that Your Majesty has sealed your county lord." You treat yourself as a character, your father was forced to die, and you still have the face to let His Majesty marry and take a step, and you still want to marry happily? I'm ——! How did your father die, the whole world knows the way, but you don't know the way, right? You forced the original partner away, and you still have to pretend that you want her to be big and you to be small. Don't forget, you are the daughter of the Shi clan, and you have the support of Your Majesty. The family is just from a poor family. I don't have a father or a mother's family, how can I overpower you? Everyone is gone, and you have to get them back. Why do you get it back? Continue to be angry with you? Look at you making love with other men?! ”

Xiao Miao's death was indeed a knot that Qi Yuexian's heart couldn't untie. She insisted on marrying Xiao Shiji. It's also because she promised her father's words......

She had thought these things. No one else will know the way. But in this old woman's mouth, everything about her seems to be hidden.

"I don't know what to say! Too lazy to tell you! Qi Yuexian also dropped a sentence and ran away in a panic.

"You sluts dare to come again. My wife let the dog bite you! The old woman crossed her waist, stood at the gate of Xiao Shiji and the courtyard, pointed to the backs of Qi Yuexian and Mu Yelai, and scolded endlessly for half an hour.

Xiao Shiji dressed in the house, stood by the window and listened quietly for a long time, and when he saw that the old woman had finally finished scolding, he sighed in his heart, found a cup from the house, filled a glass of water, opened the door and came out, sent it to the old woman, and handed it over.

When the old woman was thirsty, she took it and drank it all, and said to Xiao Shiji: "Lord Xiao, don't be soft on these cheap women. They are all uneasy and kind, don't believe what they say, respect your wife as big, they are small, this kind of! If they enter the door, your wife will not be able to fight them. You yourself have heard it, what kind of county lord, first tell you that she would rather be small and your wife be big. But when she turned her head and saw me, she said that she was not some kind of concubine and aunt. Listen, it's only been a while, and she has changed her breath, and it can be seen that what these are best at doing is superficial kung fu. Coax you to be happy first, then chew maggots in front of you and give your wife eye medicine. Pity your lady for being helpless, and no of these women will play tricks, so she has to beg to leave the ......court."

Xiao Shiji listened silently, and suddenly said, "Do you know my wife?" ”

"I don't know." The old woman shook her head, "How do I know her?" ”

"Then how do you know that she is not as good as these women?"

The old woman cut off, looked at Xiao Shiji incredulously, and said, "Lord Xiao, you really don't understand?" If your wife is more cunning than these women, she won't beg to leave the court! - I don't understand this reason, I really don't know how you are a big official. ”

Xiao Shiji closed his eyes in some pain.

Yes, such a simple and simple truth, but he has never figured it out. What was he thinking about day and night in those days?

"Lord Xiao, you really don't know what these women are thinking, right?" The old woman looked at Xiao Shiji's expression with her eyes.

Xiao Shiji still pursed his lips, churning in his heart: I really didn't know the Tao before, but now I know the Tao, but it's too late......

The old woman seemed to hear Xiao Shiji's heart, snorted, shook her head and said, "Forget it, it's not too late to know the Tao now." But ah, you can't hook up with these anymore. As for your wife, since you are so strong, you should not look back, but if you look for a wife in the future, you should find a serious woman to live, and you can't find this kind of woman who sharpens her head and drills into someone else's house. With so much effort, what they wanted was certainly not ordinary. You have to know that there are people who kill heads, but no one does the business of losing money. - The better they treat you now, the more they will have to expect from you in the days to come. After speaking, he waved his hand, "Okay, I'll go back, you can eat that bowl of chicken while it's hot." ”

When Xiao Shiji heard this, he suddenly felt like an initiation, and the things he couldn't understand before were easily solved, but when he remembered that the old woman said that Shuang'er would never look back, his heart suddenly ached, and he slowly slid down by himself holding on to the door frame, leaning on the steps, and covering his face with his hands. Tears trickled down between your fingers......
