An Zichang returned to the Anguo Mansion. When he set out on the expedition, it was only ten days away.

Zhu Susu watched him walk in with a smile in amazement, and quickly rubbed his eyes with his hands.

"You read that right, it's your man who is back." An Zichang walked over with a smile, reached out and hugged Zhu Susu, lowered his head and kissed her on the back of the neck.

Zhu Susu was stunned, slowly opened her arms, and hugged An Zichang's sturdy waist, hesitated for a moment, and finally leaned her head on An Zichang's chest.

An Zichang also had a hint of apprehension. He wanted to hug her tightly, but he was afraid of pressing her belly, so he had to gently hold her in his arms and whispered, "...... Missed me? ”

Zhu Susu immediately became alert. What is this guy going to do? With such a gentle tone and such a pitiful gesture, do you want to tease her?

Zhu Susu propped up his head from An Zichang's arms, looked at him from the bottom up, looked at his impeccable jaw, bewitching handsomeness, squinted his eyes and said, "...... You came back from Zhuangzi? ”

An Zichang smiled, "What did you say?" He let go of his hand and walked to the inner room as if nothing had happened, "I'm going to take a bath and let them prepare hot water." ”

Zhu Susu glanced at his back, raised his voice and asked someone to go to the compartment to cook water, he sat down and held his head and thought for a while, but he still didn't know the point, and finally decided not to think about it, anyway, the child is about to be born, no matter what Anzi Chang is, this couple, he is going to make a deal with her.

Zhu Susu didn't want to be like Du Hengshuang and give up the hard-won marriage.

But she also understands Du Hengshuang's feelings. If she and An Zichang are like Du Hengshuang and Xiao Shiji, they have been childhood sweethearts since childhood. The two of them have no guesses, and there is no room for any gap between the two of them, and she will not be able to stand An Zichang's appearance. ——When she didn't know the four concubines sent to Zhuangzi, in fact, An Zichang still went over to sleep from time to time?

I'm here to pretend to be affectionate to her today.

Ahh

Sometimes, breaking up is not because you don't love, but because you love too much and can't tolerate a little sand in your eyes, so you are more harsh than others.

We can talk and laugh with our enemies, but we can't tolerate the slightest flaw in our lover.

Zhu Susu thought about it so much that his head hurt, and he finally couldn't think about it anymore. Walk into the East Secondary Room, which has been converted into a study and pharmacy. Write a letter to Du Hengshuang.

She has a lot of things to tell Du Hengshuang. There are between her and An Zichang, and there are also Xiao Shiji. Especially about the news about Xiao Shiji, Zhu Susu felt that she had an obligation to help Xiao Shiji. It's not that she wants to defend Xiao Shihe, but she wants Du Hengshuang to know about the other side of things. Sometimes. Maybe look at things from a different angle. It won't be drilled.

Even if you can't be a husband and wife. Don't be an enemy.

Zhu Susu didn't want Du Hengshuang to have no contact with Xiao Shihe from now on.

Anyway, they gave birth to three children, and these three children will return to the Xiao family in the future. These are the bonds that are constantly being cut.

Even if Du Hengshuang remarries someone else, he can't completely dissociate himself from Xiao Shihe.

Zhu Susu's letter was quickly sent out.

When Du Hengshuang received the letter, it was an afternoon in July.

She sat under the cloister in the courtyard and looked at Zhu Susu's letter, and the cool wind blew through the hall, relieving the heat of the summer.

Brother Ping and Sister An did not invite Mr. alone here, but went to Xiahou's family to study, and followed the little sons and ladies there to study.

Du Hengshuang originally wanted to invite two more gentlemen for them to learn at home alone.

After Xiahou Yuan learned about it, he persuaded her that they have few families, and their children should not be locked up at home all the time, and they should have more contact with people. There are many well-educated people in their Xiahou family's homeschool, and there are many children in Xiahou's family, Brother Ping and Sister An are personally led in by him, and no one will dare to laugh at them.

Du Hengshuang thought about it for a long time before agreeing to come down and let Brother Ping and Sister An go to Xiahou's house to try it first to see if they could adapt to the atmosphere there.

Until now, they feel that it is not bad, and they have made more and more friends in homeschool, especially Brother Ping, who has changed his quiet appearance in the past, and has become more and more naughty and naughty.

Fang Yuniang came out of the house, came to sit down opposite Du Hengshuang, and said with a smile: "It looks like you're doing well, so I'm relieved." ”

Du Hengshuang folded Zhu Susu's letter, put it back in the envelope, and said to the other party's mother: "Mother, do you want to go back?" ”

Fang Yuniang nodded, "It's been almost a month here." Seeing that you are doing well, I have nothing to worry about. As she spoke, Fang Yuniang thought of Du Hengxue again, looked around, and saw that there was no one else in front of her, so she pulled a chair and leaned towards Du Hengshuang, and asked in a low voice, "Xue'er, what do you want?" ”

Du Hengshuang pursed her lips and smiled, "Mother, what do you mean by that?" ”

"Don't pretend to be stupid with me." Fang Yuniang pursed her lips, "You don't know that Xu Yanbang's eyes can't wait to grow on Xue'er?" I see, he made up his mind that even if he was kicked out of the house by his father, he would marry Xue'er. ”

Du Hengshuang nodded sympathetically, and said, "What my mother said is that I used to think that he was just a temporary interest, but who knew that after so many years, Xue'er suffered so much, and he still didn't give up on her." I hope Cher can figure it out and try to be with him. ”

"What does Cher know?" Fang Yuniang was very dissatisfied, "You are her eldest sister, she listens to you the most, you have to tell her, she will definitely not disagree." ”

Du Hengshuang smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Mother, you can't do this." Cher is already married for the second time. As the saying goes, the first marriage is made by the father, and the second marriage is by oneself. Xue'er married for the second time, so let her choose the one she likes. No matter how good we think it is, if she doesn't think it's good, why bother? She is living her life, no matter whether it is good or bad, we can't help her bear it. ”

Fang Yuniang didn't like to hear this, so she twisted her neck and said, "Why can't it?" She's in trouble, and you didn't help her? ”

Du Hengshuang was also a little unhappy, her face paled, and said: "Mother, when Xue'er was suffering in the Sun family, none of us helped her...... And there was once a Xue'er in the world who was frustrated to death by the Sun family......

Du Hengshuang thought of the life he had seen from the streamer. His brow furrowed.

Thinking of that life, she thought of the waste princess with a double image, and she felt that she was unstable and had trouble sleeping.

Speaking of Xue'er's suffering in the Sun family, Fang Yuniang had nothing to say. At that time, Du Hengshuang disappeared, and everyone outside said that she was dead, Fang Yuniang didn't believe it, and saw that she took someone outside to look for her, and she didn't care about how Du Hengxue was doing.

But. She can't be blamed entirely either.

Fang Yuniang stiffened her neck and said, "She's a gourd with a sawed mouth." She didn't say it herself, who knew that she was like that? So, the more I can't listen to her, let her pick by herself. I don't know what rotten tea residue to pick up! ”

Du Hengshuang didn't want to argue with Fang Yuniang. But that's too much.

"Mother. Sun Yaozu, but you and Lord Xu picked it together. Du Hengshuang said lightly, looking at Fang Yuniang steadily.

Fang Yu Niang was speechless. finally lowered his head in disdain, sighed, and said, "Okay, listen to her, listen to her, it's my mother's fault." However," Fang Yanniang raised her head and looked at Du Hengshuang, "You better help her palm." If she didn't look down on Xu Yanbang, she would have made it clear to others earlier. What's the matter with dragging it out like this all the time? ”

Speaking of Xu Yanbang, Du Hengshuang also had a headache. Like a dog skin plaster, it sticks to it all the time......

"Mother, you can't blame Xue'er for this. It was Xu Yanbang who was sticking to her here, but it wasn't her hanging Xu Yanbang. If you want to persuade, it is better to persuade Xu Yanbang directly. Xue'er is her sister, of course Du Hengshuang favors her, but she also tells the truth, it is indeed Xu Yanbang who is too capable of pestering people.

The mother and daughter were talking, and Zhishu came in from outside and replied: "Madam, old lady, there is Xiahou's mother-in-law outside who has sent an invitation, please Mrs. and the old lady, as well as the county lord and a few young ladies to go to Xiahou's house for a banquet tomorrow." ”

Fang Yuniang pursed her lips and smiled, looked at Du Hengshuang and said, "This Xiahou family is really sincere, we have been here for less than a month, and we have already invited us four or five times." ”

Du Hengshuang said with a smile: "Mother is right, we have to invite them back once." As he spoke, he remembered the old lady of the Xiahou family, and asked Fang Yuniang quietly, "Mother, old lady Xiahou, what did you say to your mother?" I seem to know my mother very well......"

Fang Yuniang frowned and said, "I also think she is very strange. Every time he looked at me like that, he spoke in a secret, and he didn't know what to do. ”

Du Hengshuang's eyes rolled and said, "Mother, why don't you go tomorrow, let me test the old lady Xiahou, what is the purpose?" ”

Fang Yuniang nodded hurriedly and said, "That's good, I really can't stand her." ”

Du Hengshuang covered his sleeves and chuckled, and out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of Du Hengxue and Xu Yanbang coming in together, so he didn't mention what he just said, and just greeted them: "Are you back?" On this hot day, I have to run outside, and I don't know what to do outside the road. ”

Du Hengxue was carrying a small medicine basket, Xu Yanbang was carrying a large medicine basket, and the two of them each had a medicine hoe in their hands.

"Sister, you don't know the way, there are a lot of good medicinal materials on the mountains near Dingzhou. I've only walked half of the mountain today, and I'll go to the other half tomorrow. Du Hengxue smiled and handed the medicine hoe to his subordinates.

Xu Yanbang helped her take off the medicine basket on her back and handed it to her subordinates, and they would put it in the pharmacy specially arranged for Du Hengxue.

Du Hengshuang smiled and took out a handkerchief and wiped Du Hengxue's sweat, "Look, you've been tanned all these days." In the future, I will bask in the city and see if anyone is willing to marry you......"

Xu Yanbang said with a smile: "Where is it dark?" It's not dark at all. Besides, Cher is too white, so it's just right to be black. ”

Du Hengxue glanced at him, ignored him, and said to Du Hengshuang: "Sister, I'll go change my clothes, and I'm covered in sweat." ”

"Go ahead. Ming'er is going to Xiahou's house for a banquet, don't go out tomorrow. Du Hengshuang commanded, and got up to go to the kitchen to see how the dinner was prepared.

Xu Yanchao had nothing to do here, and finally got Fang Yuniang's consent and asked him to go to Xiahou's family to study and study.

When they came back and finished dinner, Du Hengshuang hurriedly sent the children to bed, and said that he would go home early tomorrow and go to Xiahou's house for a banquet together.

Xiahou's family's feast this time was arranged in the evening.

Du Hengshuang took Brother Ping, Sister An, Brother Yang, as well as Du Hengxue, Xu Yanchao and Xu Yanbang to Xiahou's house for a banquet.

Fang Yuniang excused herself because she was unwell and didn't go.

When she arrived at Xiahou's house, the old lady Xiahou was really waiting there, and when she saw that Fang Yuniang did not come, she was very concerned. Pulled Du Hengshuang and asked for a long time.

Du Hengshuang summoned Du Hengxue and told Mrs. Xiahou about Fang Yuniang's "illness".

Du Hengxue is a person who understands medicine, she made up the "condition", of course, it was meticulous, and the old lady Xiahou kept nodding her head, not doubting it at all.

When eating dinner, Old Lady Xiahou called Du Hengshuang to her side, looked at her face, and sighed: "Mrs. Qin Guo, it's not that you are old and talkative. Your mother is too similar to a niece from the old man's past. ”

Du Hengshuang didn't care. quietly grimaced in his heart, and secretly said that I am still like your merry grandfather Xiahou Xintai......

When the old lady Xiahou saw Du Hengshuang's disapproving appearance, she knew that she didn't understand, so she smiled and took her words. "Mrs. Qin. Do you know that the Dao is before the Great Zhou. Who was the emperor? ”

Du Hengshuang thought for a while, "It's the Chai family." Now Princess Pingle's concubine is the descendant of the Chai family. ”

"yes." Old Madam Xiahou said with emotion. "The last emperor of the Chai family once married the eldest daughter of the original family as the queen, but in the end, it ruined the Chai family."

Du Hengshuang knew that Emperor Dejian, the founding emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty, was surnamed Yuan, and before he became the emperor, he was indeed a courtier of the Chai family of the Northern Zhou Dynasty.

However, over the years, there have been too many things in this land where you have come and gone to be the emperor, and she didn't care, and said with a smile: "But no, now that I am going around and around, I have actually come to Daqi again, and it is the turn of the Qi family to be the emperor." ”

Old Madam Xiahou said tentatively: "Then you always know that a girl from our Xiahou family is the original wife of the former general, right?" ”

Du Hengshuang's eyes rolled, and he shook his head and said, "I don't know about this." ”

"My sister-in-law is the Empress Xiahou of Emperor Dejian, the founding emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Her eldest daughter is Yuan Chanjuan. Originally, she married her daughter to the emperor of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, and my niece Yuan Chanjuan was also a queen of a country. The Great Zhou Dynasty destroyed the Northern Zhou Dynasty, and Yuan Chanjuan changed from a queen to a princess. Of course, the previous Great Zhou was also short-lived, only one generation. Old Madam Xiahou shook her head, "When people are old, they are verbose, always thinking about these past events." ”

Du Hengshuang said curiously: "Eh, you just said that my mother is like your niece, is it like this Queen of the Northern Zhou Dynasty and Princess Yuan Chanjuan of the Great Zhou?" ”

Old Madam Xiahou was noncommittal, and personally took the pot and poured her a glass of wine, "Drink some fruit wine, it's very good." Then he put down the wine jug and said to Du Hengshuang: "Please forgive Mrs. Qin Guo, the old man is old and frail, so I have to go back to rest first." ”

Du Hengshuang hurriedly got up and said, "Old lady, please." ”

The old lady Xiahou left, Du Hengshuang was still thinking about the intricate relationship between the big families of this family, the more she thought about it, the more interesting it became, thinking that she would go back and ask her mother if she had any impression of these things.

After eating dinner, Du Hengshuang looked outside the house and found that there was a clear glow outside, and the moonlight was very bright, "The moonlight tonight is really good." I couldn't help but praise it.

Xiahou Yuan thought about talking to Du Hengshuang all night, but he didn't expect his great-grandmother to call Du Hengshuang to talk, making him wait all night.

Finally, when his great-grandmother left, Xiahou Yuan came over and said to Du Hengshuang: "Shuang'er, there is a lantern festival in the city today, let's go and have a look?" ”

Du Hengshuang was surprised, raised his head and asked, "Lantern Festival?" Isn't it the fifteenth day of the first lunar month? Why is there a lantern festival? ”

Xiahou Wushuang was talking to Xu Yanchao, and when he heard this, he turned his head and smiled: "Sister Shuang'er, you don't know, today is Qixi Festival, our Qixi Lantern Festival in Dingzhou is very famous!" As he spoke, he stood up and said, "Big brother, let's go!" ”

Xiahou Yuan looked at Du Hengshuang and said with a smile: "If Shuang'er is willing to go, we will go." ”

Many pairs of eyes looked at Du Hengshuang as if they were willing to do so.

Du Hengshuang smiled and quipped: "Yo, if I don't agree, I'm really going to be everyone's sinner." - Okay, let's go see what we want. However, he added: "The children should go back, it's too late, and I'm afraid that there will be too many people outside, so it's not easy to take care of it." "When the Lantern Festival is held, it is also the time when the kidnappers are infested, and Du Hengshuang doesn't want the child to have an accident.

Although Xiahou Yuan didn't think that anyone dared to touch the people covered by their Xiahou family, since Du Hengshuang said so, he still said: "Okay, let's send them back to your house first, and then go to see the Lantern Festival." ”

Du Hengshuang nodded and said with a smile: "Okay, let's go first." ”

Several people hurriedly took the three children to the car and returned to Du's house.

Brother Ping and Sister An didn't want to be sent back, but as soon as they got in the car, it didn't take long for them to fall asleep.

When she arrived at the door of Du's house, Du Hengshuang watched her adoptive mother take Brother Yang, Brother Ping, and Sister An down, and ordered, "Send it back." ”

Zhishu and Ou Yangniang responded, and personally took the adoptive mother in with the child.

Xiahou Yuan said to Du Hengshuang: "Let's just walk all the way from here." ”

Du Hengshuang nodded and asked Du Hengxue, "Do you want to go?" ”

Before Du Hengxue could say anything, Xu Yanbang hurriedly said, "Of course I go!" Of course go! He added: "Shuang'er, don't worry about us, with me, Xue'er will have no problem." ”

Du Hengshuang pursed her lips and smiled, nodded and said, "Okay, then I will entrust Xue'er to you." If she loses a hair tonight, I'll ask you! ”

Xiahou Yuan squinted at Du Hengshuang, only to feel that she was becoming more and more beautiful in the moonlight, and when he let him take a look, his heart trembled, and he couldn't extricate himself at all.

Xiahou Wushuang pulled Xu Yanchao's sleeve and said: "I'm with Yanchao, we are exactly three pairs!" ”

Xu Yanchao flicked his sleeves awkwardly, broke away from Xiahou's hands, and said unhappily: "Who is with you!" ”

In front of so many people, Xiahou Wushuang really couldn't get off the stage, and immediately burst into tears.

The others pretended not to see it, and walked forward by themselves.

Xu Yanchao saw Xiahou Wushuang with tears in his eyes, and somehow, he remembered that time, when he fell into the water in the Taiye Pool, and when he woke up, the first thing he saw was Xiahou Wushuang's red and swollen eyes that were crying......

"Okay, pull it for you!" Xu Yanchao stretched out his hand, but his head turned away.

Xiahou Wushuang burst into tears and laughed, hurriedly took Xu Yanchao's hand, and walked behind Du Hengxue and Xu Yanbang with him.

The pair at the forefront is Xiahou Yuan and Du Hengshuang.

As soon as they left the gate of the Du family, a tall man came out of the shadow of the Du family's wall, and it was Xiao Shiji, who was dressed in black. He looked at Du Hengshuang's distant back fixedly, his eyes were like the sea in the moonlight, becoming more and more deep and obscure.
