"No need." Liu Qiaoruo grabbed his sleeve and stopped him.

"Don't disagree with me."

"I have medicine."

It's a long way, it's snowy, and it's not convenient to come and go, so it's too hard to get a medicine.

When she went to the street today, she bought some herbs and ointments for backup, just because she was worried that Huo Xiangning would fall and get injured or get sick when she ran around, but she didn't expect to use it first.

Huo Qiyou let go of his hand, a little frustrated, because he suddenly felt that Liu Qiaoruo didn't need him at all.

But he didn't leave because of this setback, he leaned at the dinner table, saying that he wanted to watch his daughter eat.

Liu Qiaoruo was a little dissatisfied at first and wanted to treat him as an invisible person, but seeing that everyone was eating very well, she ignored him, she was a little unhappy, so she also served a bowl of fried rice to him, and then also served a bowl to Shi Ding, who was guarding the door as a door god.

Huo Qiyou looked at the bowl of rice in his hand, it was obviously just rice and a few pickles garnished, but it smelled more fragrant than the imperial food in the palace, he took a bite and couldn't stop.

This rice is so delicious!

You say this...... What's it called? ”

Liu Qiaoruo couldn't help but smile when he saw that he liked to eat. "Fried rice."

Huo Qiyou has eaten countless delicacies from the mountains and seas, but it is not as appetizing as this fried rice, no wonder Shi always said that the young lady is very good at cooking when he reports to him, and the little lady and they are all very happy.

At that time, he couldn't understand the artistic conception in Shi Ding's words, until he ate this bowl of fried rice, he finally understood that although it was simple, it was a delicacy in the world.

He unconsciously looked at Liu Qiaoruo, why is her cooking skills so good? Was that how it used to be?

For her, he became more and more curious, and he understood more and more why Shi Ding said that the current young lady was not like the young lady he knew.

Really, at this moment, he also felt that he didn't know the woman in front of him.

His gaze made Liu Qiaoruo misunderstand, thinking that he hadn't eaten enough, so he gave him all the fried rice in the pot.

The mother ......, "Seeing that the pot is empty, Huo Xiangning's mouth is flattened, and tears are about to fall."

Huo Qiyou hurriedly handed the fried rice to his daughter, touched her head, and chuckled: "Eat a little more to grow faster." ”

Huo Xiangning looked at his father blankly, a little at a loss. This is the first time Dad has touched her head and spoken to her so gently.

In the past, my father was always very busy, and he almost didn't have time to pay attention to her, and his mother ignored her, so she always ate with the nurse, and sometimes she was bullied by those evil maids, and she especially hoped that someone could accompany her, but her hopes were always disappointed.

But now my mother treats her very well, she accompanies her every day, and her father often comes over, she really feels so happy.

"Thank you, Daddy."

Just such a sentence melted Huo Qiyou's cold heart, he used to be busy, plus he was not good at expressing his feelings, and he didn't know how to get along with his daughter, so he didn't get close to her, but now he knows that family affection is nature, and he doesn't need too many words, as long as he smiles, he can close the distance.

"Daddy will always come to accompany you in the future, okay?"

"Good!" Huo Xiangning immediately replied with a smile, and then proudly showed off to her mother, "Mother, Daddy said that he would often come to accompany Ning'er in the future!" ”

Liu Qiaoruo sighed secretly first, it seemed that her good days of freedom were getting farther and farther away, but seeing Huo Xiangning so happy, she couldn't help laughing.

The child still hopes that her parents can always be by her side, and she, as a mother, can only try her best to cooperate.

After finishing the meal, Huo Qiyou did not leave immediately, but stayed with his daughter, he sat cross-legged on the couch, hugged his daughter on his lap, and told her about the history of the Huo family, as well as his beloved father.

Liu Qiaoruo listened on the side, and then knew that his mother was still alive, but because he was sad about his father's death, his health became very bad.

From his words, she could hear that he was actually very lonely, and his expression unconsciously revealed a faint sadness, thinking that he had picked up the burden of the family at the age of fifteen, and the Huo family's career was also well managed, which was really not simple, which made her feel admired.

The eyes of the two met inadvertently, and then moved away, and their hearts were slightly touched.

As soon as Huo Qiyou stayed in the abandoned house, he stayed until late at night, and he didn't leave until everyone was asleep.

Outside, the wind and snow rose again, and as soon as he rode his horse into the night, Shi Ding quietly followed, facing the winding lights.

Liu Qiaoruo was not asleep, and when she heard the slight sound of Huo Qiyou leaving, she also got up, quietly opened the door, looked at the backs of the two, and was shocked by the lights in the distance.

It turns out that this is the case, no wonder there are lanterns all the way, and I think about it, only Huo Qiyou has that ability, and only he has that reason to hang the lights all the way on the inaccessible road.

She suddenly felt very curious, since Huo Qiyou had feelings for the original owner, why was he so alienated?

Early in the morning, a strange visitor came to the abandoned house, an uncle, who brought a basket of eggs and some meat.

No merit is not accepted, Liu Qiaoruo naturally does not dare to accept it.

The uncle said: "I used to benefit from the young lady, and when I learned that the young lady lived here, I specially gave some things that I grew and sold at home. ”

Benefiting from the young lady? Didn't the original owner always live in a simple house, just like a modern housemaid, and there were still people who benefited from her? Amazing! Weird! But seeing that the other party looked sincere, not like a fake, she had to reluctantly accept it.

After the uncle left, Liu Qiaoruo took the eggs and meat to the kitchen, afraid that the meat would spoil, she first sprinkled salt on the meat, took a clay pot, filled it with some snow, put the meat on the snow, then covered the lid, and finally put the clay pot in the snow, which became the most natural refrigerator.

After handling the meat, she was just about to go out when someone came to the door again.

This time it was an aunt who brought her own pickled fish, because of the cold winter and heavy snow, it was not easy to eat fish, and it was relatively expensive food.

"Auntie, I can't accept your gift for no reason, so please bring it back."

The eldest aunt immediately begged, "Young lady, you have helped our family a lot before, this fish was caught by my son from the river before it snowed, it is really just a small gift, please be sure to accept it." ”

Feeling that if she refused, her aunt would cry, Liu Qiaoruo hesitated for a long time, but still accepted the gift.

When the aunt left, she immediately went to ask Chun'er, "Chun'er, let me ask you something." ”

"Well, what does the young lady want to ask Chun'er?"

That ...... Your young lady...... Belch...... I mean, I used to do good deeds? ”

Chun'er was asked for a while, and she couldn't answer, she really hadn't seen the young lady do any good things, or should she say that she had almost never seen the young lady leave the house, how could she do good things.
