Several successive rains have alleviated the heat in northern Xinjiang, and Yunzhou in July blooms with a rare freshness in midsummer.

The galloping horses swept swiftly across the fertile fields of the suburbs, and after passing the designated finish near the walls of the state capital, they slowly lowered their horses' hooves.

The knight, who had won the first place, turned his horse's head and greeted his companions, who were three or four horses behind, and greeted him with a hearty smile. The hibiscus face with blushing cheeks, the starry eyes are shining, the eyebrows and eyes are flying with a seemingly innate proud appearance, and even the light blue riding uniform on the body is dazzling in an instant.

The same tight-fitting Hu-style riding costume was wrapped around Zhou Manyun's body, but the color chosen by her husband was much more tender, lining her snow muscles, like a gentle green feather caring for the delicate white jade.

Even if you lose, you are happy!

Zhou Manyun took a deep breath, and felt that every alveoli in his chest was also exhaling the cheerful fragrance of plants and trees. She smiled at the young woman who had come back to look for her, and praised aloud: "The eldest sister's riding skills are really good, much better than her husband!" ”

"That's natural, Xiao Xiaoliu learned to ride a horse when he was a child, or I taught it by hand!" , Knowing that the younger brother-in-law was stepping on the sixth brother to put a high hat on herself, Xiao Wan, the elder sister of the Xiao family, still led it unceremoniously, "Man Yun, you are the apprentice taught by Xiaoliu, right?" Then I'm your ancestor. ”

"Man Yun has seen Sister Shizu!" , Zhou Manyun drove the horse closer to each other, pretending to bow respectfully, bringing a crisp laughter around him.

The group of people surrounding the sister-in-law and younger sister-in-law of the Xiao family are all sturdy and upright women, of different ages and ugly appearances, but they are all remarkably unobstructed and sunny.

A group of women who laughed and walked towards the Jingguo Mansion in Yunzhou Mansion, Zhou Manyun, who was caught in the crowd, kept his eyebrows and eyes clear, but his heart was inevitably a little complicated.

Just as Xiao Hong explained seriously when he was counting the heads with his hands, he followed him back to Yunzhou for two or three months. Life was indeed a thousand times better than the countless fantasies she had scared herself in the past.

may have a different identity in this life than in his previous life, and he has a different love from Xiao Hong, and his mother sister treats himself in a completely different way from the memory of him. And the rest of the Xiao family is really as Xiao Hong expected, all of them are following the preferences of Duchess Jingguo.

As the daughter-in-law of her youngest son, Zhou Manyun's life is as comfortable as falling into a honey nest.

The graceful and dignified Mrs. Xu still has a natural elegance, but she will also do her best in front of them, and her gentle and considerate care is sometimes so trivial that it makes the young couple blush. Unable to parry.

In her previous life, Xiao Wan, who died of illness in the second year of Xiyuan, did not have the gloom of the lingering sickbed in her memory.

Although the relationship with her husband Qin Yu is also stiff and the terrain is the same, Xiao Wan lives alone in the western suburbs with a pair of children, and a bunch of sisters seem to have a good life.

Man Yun once laughed and secretly helped Xiao Wan diagnose her pulse, but he didn't find any hidden diseases in her body that were enough to kill her in just a few years.

The eldest sister-in-law with a light handicap on her legs, who likes to ride a horse faster than slowly moving her steps in the courtyard to expose her defects, is in excellent health, and her riding skills are indeed not inferior to those regular soldiers.

All the way to the hospital and through the hall. Behind Man Yun and Xiao Wan, there were only a few close self-care people left.

As soon as she entered the mansion, Xiao Wan, who heard Mrs. Xu making tea in the back garden and waiting for them, didn't allow Man Yun to go back to her own yard to change her clothes, so she smiled and grabbed her arm and rushed to the garden.

"Mother!" , the two calls rubbed together, one was naturally affectionate, and the other was slightly shy.

Mrs. Xu, who was sitting on the Ge mat in the middle of the water pavilion, raised her head with a smile, nodded to her daughter and daughter-in-law, did not respond, and did not stop with her bare hands.

Square pot in hand. The patrol will point the troops, and the tea will be poured into the rain. The black porcelain lamp that looms in the sunlight ripples with microwaves.

Xiao Zhan, full of tea, moved to her daughter and daughter-in-law in turn, looking at the beautiful woman who was no more than forty years old, she smiled lightly, and gently stopped Xiao Wan's unreasonable request to the servant.

"Wan'er, I just came back from outside and sweated, so I shouldn't drink too cold. Regardless of your own body, you can't drag Man Yun along. ”

Xiao Wan hummed honestly. The jade finger touched the small bowl in front of him, his elbow was lightly topped, his body was slightly tilted, and he squeezed his eyes narrowly at Man Yun, who was sitting beside him.

Zhou Manyun held the lamp in his hand, and his snow-white face had faded away from the excitement and flush he had just returned to the house. With a little stunned, his eyes darkly glanced at the tea cup that was leaning towards Xiao Wan's red lips.

"Manyun tasted the plum blossom tea that he had prepared for his mother. I've been hiding it for three winters, and I think it's a great drink in the summer. Mrs. Xu, who drank the same pot of water, put down the cup in her hand and looked at Man Yun with a smile.

Zhou Manyun echoed and slowly raised the lamp to sip lightly, and when the tea was empty, he raised his head and smiled toothily, and said, "It's really good, just this small bite is already fragrant." Please also ask my mother to give me more. ”

Mrs. Xu, who was praised, smiled even more kindly, her fingers were like butterflies, and the fragrant tea juice was fairly distributed to Man Yun, as well as her daughter who was competing for favor.

"Man Yun, thanks to you accompanying Wan'er this time, I see that she is much happier than before."

"Mother! It's not that I'm with my sister, it's because my sister takes the time to accompany me. ”

The polite reply between your mother-in-law and daughter-in-law attracted a big "stealing" smile from her daughter, and her whole body even fluttered on Man Yun like a flower branch.

"It's not good to say that the sixth brother is not good, and he took his beautiful little daughter-in-law back to Yunzhou and actually soaked in the military camp all day long. But it's cheaper for me! Xiao Wan's index finger playfully picked up Man Yun's small chin.

"You're going to be weird!" , Mrs. Xu glared at her eldest daughter in annoyance, turned to Man Yun and said softly, "Man Yun, you don't mind." Men, it's always like this, they will always be negligent in their wives, not to mention the men of the Xiao family..."

"Mother!" , Xiao Wan hurriedly put down the tea in her hand, and hurriedly stopped Mrs. Xu's complaints.

In the three months that the sixth brother returned to Yunzhou with his daughter-in-law, Xiao Wan felt that this young couple who were in love was full of envy of others.

Although Xiao Hong, who had taken over the defense of the military according to his father's instructions since mid-April, had often mixed up in the military camp as soon as he returned to Yunzhou, so that the new younger brother had more time traveling with him, Xiao Liu, who only returned to Manyunfang when he returned home, was a hundred times stronger than his father and other younger brothers.

It's just that according to her mother's private inquiry not long ago, Xiao Wan, who had also talked to Manyun, was a little suspicious that there might be something wrong with the sweet little couple.

It is said that Man Yun, who knows medical skills, is so confused that he doesn't know that the day when Xiao Hong deliberately stayed in the military camp was precisely her fertile period.

The eldest sister-in-law is no better than a sister, and Xiao Wan, who doesn't dare to ask her brother-in-law directly, is looking for an appropriate time to visit her own brother first.

So at this moment, Xiao Wan was afraid that her mother's habitual resentment of men in front of her for many years would affect Man Yun, and then the husband and wife would lose harmony and hurt the little brother.

So, Xiao Wandong, who deliberately acted as the middleman of her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, pulled up interesting topics with a hammer, which made Mrs. Xu and Man Yun laugh again and again. The three of them poured a belly of tea in laughter.

Man Yun from a scholarly family in Jiangnan should be as happy and elegant as his mother. Xiao Wanlin, who was better drunk in private, rolled her eyes when she said goodbye, and faced Mrs. Xu with a shy smile, "Mother will give her daughter a good tea...... Give Manyun some more points. “

Zhou Manyun looked at the white porcelain teapot with a black plum obliquely signed on the case, and nodded heavily.

"You Nizi!" , Mrs. Xu smiled affectionately and patted Xiao Wan's cheek, and raised her voice to order a blue-robed woman beside her, "Cuiluo, you take the tea and give it to the eldest lady and the sixth grandmother, remember to leave me more." ”

"Thank you, Aunt Cui, for giving me more than half of it!" , the jar was held in Cuiluo's hand, and Xiao Wan shouted thank you at the top of her voice.

Cuiluo, who is only a few months younger than Mrs. Xu, is the maid who came from Xu's mansion back then, and her appearance is calm and her temperament is stable.

Compared with the companion who was pulled on the bed by Jing Guogong in the early years and quickly faded and loved, Cuiluo, who only married the steward of the Xiao Mansion, has been trusted by the owner for a longer time, and Xiao Wan and her two younger brothers will also call her an aunt closely.

Cuiluo's hands and feet were neat, and the porcelain jar she quickly hugged was replaced by two sturdy white mulberry paper bags, one large and one small.

Xiao Wan took the big bag directly, which couldn't help but make Mrs. Xu point at her and Cuiluo and stare at her with a smile.

Unkindly left Cuiluo for training, and Xiao Wan, who ran away with Man Yun with a smile, flew quickly under her feet, without any hindrance at all.

"Well, this bag is for you too! I'm keeping this thing and it's a mess. “

The tea bag in his hand was thrown into Man Yun's arms, and Xiao Wan, whose eyebrows were fluttering, looked like she was satisfied. "Thank you, sister!" , Man Yun pursed his lips and smiled, and thanked him softly. "Man Yun, it's all my own family, don't look at what you want in the future and don't dare to speak out. Mother and sister are very painful to our sisters and brothers! ”

Xiao Wan bit the accent and admonished, very serious......

At dusk, Zhou Manyun, who had finished dinner alone, leaned on a rocking chair in the bedroom, closed his eyes and meditated, and pressed the tea bag with plum fragrance on his face with one hand, rising and falling with the shaking chair.

On a few cases, there was another small packet, which was mixed with floral tea leaves, which was exactly the same as this one.

With a snap, Man Yun took the paper bag he had sniffed and threw it on the small table next to the chair.

Two packets of plum blossom tea are indeed true, but they are less than the pot that the three of them drank together.

If you talk about changing tea, the most suspicious thing should be that cuiluo. But why did he suspect Mrs. Xu, the amiable mother-in-law who treated him kindly, as soon as he put on the tea cup and tasted tea?

Therefore, he was unusually selfish and did not call the poison in the tea, and watched Mrs. Xu calmly patrol the pot to divide the tea, sharing the same poison with three people, and laughing and talking.

Maybe Xiao Wan was affected by a wrong guess? Sure enough, I'm not a good person!

Man Yun raised his hands to cover his cheeks, and tears flowed down his fingers.

"The almost lost palace secret medicine is zero, and the snow hezi commonly used in the Goolan is milder...... The jade that can only be matched in the northland...... Who have you offended to be able to get so many elixirs? “

In her previous life, the exclamation of Master Xu Ne checking her pulse kept ringing in Man Yun's ears. (To be continued......)
