After coming out of Yaoguang Pavilion, Old Lady Chu had never seen a smile on her face.

Mama Yao took a bowl of stewed minced porridge and stepped into Rongyang Hall, seeing that Old Lady Chu was still in the same posture as when she left, she couldn't help but sigh secretly in her heart, and walked over lightly, "Old lady, you can eat some food first." ”

"Let's put it on hold, I won't be able to eat it now." Old Lady Chu took a deep breath, her expression was sad, she sighed weakly, and muttered to herself, "What kind of sin have I done......

Mama Yao has been by Mrs. Chu's side for decades, and she knows her thoughts and temper very well, so she naturally knows that Mrs. Chu is sad and blames herself for Xu Yao's affairs, and she may even have some resentment towards Mrs. in her heart, so she can only persuade on the side, "No one expected this to happen, old lady, you don't have to blame yourself." If the Su family is really unwilling to marry a cousin because of this matter, our Anping Hou Mansion will not be able to afford it. ”

"They dare!" Old Lady Chu's eyes glared fiercely, and after a while, she softened again, and sighed again, "Why is this child's life so bitter." ”

"The slave and maid look at the lady's belly today, I am afraid that she is about to give birth."

"Calculate the time, it's almost a month or two." Old Mrs. Chu turned her head and thought about the situation when she saw Xu Jiayi today, her stomach was indeed bulging, like a flatulent balloon. Originally, Dr. Wen Po had prepared these in advance, but unfortunately the Wen Po died in an accident, and now she has to find another one.

Thinking like this, Old Lady Chu came to her senses again and told herself that she couldn't fall.

Xu Jiayi had just woken up that day, and as soon as she opened her eyes and moved, Cuiyun came over to serve. Xu Jiayi was a little surprised, and heard Cuiyun's report that the prince was coming back soon.

"Is my cousin injured? Can you enter the house now? When did it not wake me up? Xu Jiayi sat up from the bed and couldn't help but ask out loud.

Cuiyun lowered her head and took the clothes for Xu Jiayi and put them on, "The slave didn't want to wake you up when she saw that her wife was sleeping soundly." ”

The main reason is that Xu Jiayi can't sleep well all night these days, and she can only take a nap in the afternoon every day, so Cuiyun is reluctant to wake her up.

"I don't know if the prince is injured or not, but I only heard Deputy Lieutenant Qi beside the prince say back and forth that the prince has returned to the city, and it won't take much time to arrive." Yuan Xiang on the side snorted when she heard this, and while serving Xu Jiayi, she replied loudly, "Don't worry, madam, the slave and maid looked at Deputy Lieutenant Qi and saw no urgency between his eyebrows, and it was okay to think about the prince in the next life." ”

Xu Jiayi's heart, which had been worried for a long time, suddenly settled down when she heard this, and she smiled happily, and said loudly while sliding off the bed, "Cuiyun, Yuanxiang, hurry up and give me makeup." ”

When Chu Changfeng left, he explained to Chang Tian that he would come back in about a day or two, but in fact, he didn't come back for more than half a month, and Chu Minglei didn't come back. If it weren't for the letter sent back in three or two days, Xu Jiayi was afraid that she would be even more worried. This time, the barbarians stole chickens and rice, not only failed to capture Changzhou, but also lost several cities on the frontier.

Chu Changfeng went this time to take over these cities. The letter also mentioned that there were still some things to deal with in these cities, and it would take some time, so it was delayed. As for Chu Minglei, he had to inspect and pacify the other border cities to which Changzhou belonged, so he postponed his return home.

Pacing back and forth at the door, looking around from time to time, Xu Jiayi waited for a while before finally seeing a familiar figure from far and near. The armor on Chu Changfeng's body can no longer see its own color, it is mixed with black blood and dust, and his face is also dirty and black, covering his original appearance, if he is not familiar with him, people may not be able to recognize who it is.

The moment she saw Chu Changfeng, Xu Jiayi didn't notice his dirty body at all, ran towards him with a smile on her face, and threw herself directly into his arms.

Thinking about the child in her belly, Xu Jiayi still grasped the measure.

Chu Changfeng raised his hand and gently hugged the person in his arms, patted her on the back, and secretly pushed her back, "Don't come close to me, I'm dirty ......"

After taking care of the matter, he rushed back. It's just that there were some accidents on the road and some remnants, so there were some blood stains on his body. I thought about going back to the house to take a bath and then go to see Xu Jiayi, but who knew that Qi Fei's big mouth was a forgetful person, and directly told Yuan Xiang the news that he was going to return to the house.

Yuan Xiang knew it, and naturally Xu Jiayi knew it.

"I'm not afraid." Xu Jiayi muttered and wanted to throw herself into Chu Changfeng's arms again, but Chu Changfeng's big hand held her head, and she couldn't get close, so she had to give up.

"Well, I'll let you hug you after I'm done."

"No shame!"

"I don't allow you to say that about yourself."

Xu Jiayi didn't react at first, but after she reacted, she glared at Chu Changfeng angrily.

"Don't want to hug me? Shall I hug you? If you won't let me hug it, it's good to kiss it. Chu Changfeng leaned close to Xu Jiayi's ear and said in a serious voice, seeing that the smile in Xu Jiayi's cheeks and crimson eyes became deeper and deeper, he motioned for Cuiyun to help Xu Jiayi into the house. Xu Jiayi went back to Fengyuan's house and sat down, while Chu Changfeng went to the ear room on the side to take a bath.

Mama Hua and the others quickly boiled hot water and sent it to the ear room, while Xu Jiayi was busy selecting clothes for Chu Changfeng to change and send them over, and after choosing, Xu Jiayi slowly sat on the soft collapse to rest.

She walked a little too much today, and she was tired and panicked.

Yaoguang Pavilion.

Because of the injury, Xu Yao's face can't be touched with water until the wound is scabbed, and Mama Lin gently wiped her face after wetting the handkerchief with water. After the face is cleaned, apply a layer of skin whitening cream on the face, especially the wound area, and wipe it carefully.

This skin whitening cream is from the palace, as its name suggests, the effect of whitening the skin, lightening spots and eliminating scars is excellent. Xu Jiayi only had a small bottle in her hand, and when she got married, her second cousin-in-law thought that there was a lot of wind and sand in Changzhou, so she specially sent it over to Xu Jiayi to bring it.

Skin whitening cream can't be bought with money, and it is generally only used by the queen mother and concubine in the palace. Occasionally, these two nobles would be happy, and they would be rewarded to the ladies of various provinces, which was a symbol of dignity and favor. Xu Jiayi was reluctant to use this thing, and after knowing that Xu Yao had hurt her face, she asked Cuiyun to send it over.

Fortunately, the wounded people can't use this thing, otherwise it would be left to Xu Yao.

Mama Lin came in with the boiled bird's nest and handed it to Xu Yao, she was very happy to see her quietly spoonful by spoonful in her mouth, the girl's mental state has improved a lot these days, and she is willing to eat well, she is naturally happy.

Quietly staring at Xu Yao's cheeks, Mama Lin whispered, "Girl, the scar on your face seems to be lighter again, and it is almost impossible to see it." The skin whitening cream sent by Madame is quite effective, as long as you apply it for a while, you will definitely not be able to see it at all......"

Xu Yao's hand holding the spoon paused, and he was stunned for a moment before continuing to send the bird's nest to his mouth.

Since her face was injured, there was no bronze mirror or anything else in the room that could illuminate her face, and she specially asked Mama Lin to put them away. Even when she washed her face and hands, she deliberately turned her eyes away from looking at her face reflected in the water in the basin, because she didn't want to see her face.

Even she was deceiving herself in this evasive way.

Although on the surface she told her aunt that she didn't care if the wound on her face was healed, in fact, she knew in her heart that she couldn't care less, and she couldn't not care.

Seeing that Xu Yao didn't answer again, Mama Lin only handed the used porcelain bowl back to herself, so she quietly accepted the porcelain bowl and stopped talking, twisted the handkerchief to clean Xu Yao's face, and retreated silently. Xu Yao doesn't like people to stay in the house, and after eating every day, she will send them all out, and when they are bored in the house alone, they all become withdrawn. I don't talk anymore, and I can't say a few words a day.

At the moment when Mama Lin was about to exit the door, Xu Yao suddenly called her, "Mama!" ”

Mama Lin looked back at Xu Yao with some doubts, and silently asked her if she had any other instructions.

Xu Yao stared at her fingertips, and was silent for a long time before she spoke, "You bring a bronze mirror in." ”

"Huh!" Mama Lin was busy, so she went to find a bronze mirror and sent it into the house. What she just said to Xu Yao was not just a relief, Xu Yao's face had really recovered well these days. Otherwise, how could she deliberately say those heart-piercing words in front of Xu Yao.

Looking at herself in the mirror, Xu Yao's eyes turned red unconsciously.

Her fingertips gently brushed over her cheeks, and the hideous scars in the bronze mirror that day were still fresh in her memory, every time she applied the medicine

I only thought that Mama Lin was comforting her, but she didn't expect that the scar was really much shallower, although there were still obvious pale pink scar marks, it was much better than she imagined.

Even if it really doesn't recover as before, if such a scar is covered with a layer of fat powder, as long as the person doesn't come close to her face to look at it, it won't be visible at all. Xu Yao held the bronze mirror and looked at herself in the mirror, only to find that she in the bronze mirror had red eyes at some point.

In Fengyuan, when she heard Cuiyun say that Xu Yao asked to see her, Xu Jiayi thought that she had heard it wrong. Since Xu Yao was rescued by Chu Changfeng, she has locked herself in her room all day and refused to go out, except for the old lady and Mama Lin, who was waiting by her side, she refused to see anyone.

Why did you suddenly come to her hospital? Didn't you know the news of Chu Changfeng's return, and specially came to find Chu Changfeng?

Cuiyun looked down at Xu Jiayi, who was deep in thought, "If Madam doesn't want to see her, just go out and say something." ”

"Invite someone in," Xu Jiayi commanded.

Xu Yao covered her face with a light veil, and walked in from outside the door, and as soon as she entered the door, she respectfully blessed Xu Jiayi

body, "cousin." ”
