In the evening, in Chang'an City, where the lights are on, snowflakes are flying in the wind or scattered in the streets and alleys, and every household is dyed with the ice water it has melted.

In the courtyard of the Su family, the wet bluestone road winds and stretches to the outside of the Qingfeng Pavilion.

Xu Yue was on the second floor at this time, leisurely eating pastries and tasting tea, and at this moment, he listened to the sound of climbing the stairs, and the words of Youlan came up.

"Girl, girl, the old lady called you to the front yard."

Xu Promise put down the teacup, and when he raised his eyes, he saw Youlan carrying it, and a small blue charcoal came up.

Youlan walked to the charcoal brazier, put charcoal in the charcoal brazier, and said to Xu Promise: "Girl, I just finished taking the charcoal outside the house, and when I returned to the house, I happened to see Sister Lan'er walking towards us, and she said that the old lady has something to say, so let you go quickly." ”

Xu Promise answered softly, picked up the tea and took another sip, and saw Youlan looking at her expressionlessly, Xu Promise smiled and said, "Oops! Come and help me get dressed! Hurry up, I'm just waiting for you. ”

Xu Yu stood up, Youlan walked to her with a smile and helped sort out Xu Yue's clothes, and at this moment, Mama Qiu's anxious voice came up from downstairs, accompanied by the sound of climbing the stairs.

"Girl, girl."

Mama Qiu came upstairs with the food box, and saw the master and servant sorting out their clothes, and suddenly they were stunned at the staircase, and asked suspiciously: "Girl, what are you doing here?" ”

"Madame, call the girl to speak." Youlan glanced at Mama Qiu and explained.

"Oh! Hurry up, does the girl still have to comb her hair and sideburns? Mama Qiu put the food box in her hand on the table, turned to Xu Promise and asked.

"No, it's not very messy. Now it's dark, and no one will notice. Xu Yue looked out the window and said to Mama Qiu.

Xu Promise looked at himself in the mirror, smiled with satisfaction, and said to Youlan, "Let's go!" Hopefully, we're not the last to arrive. ”

Xu Yu and Youlan walked out of Qingfeng Pavilion, and Mama Qiu on the second floor suddenly patted her leg and hurriedly walked down, muttering, "Oops! I don't know what this letter is about, but what can I do if I misunderstand the girl's business! ”

Mama Qiu walked quickly to the door of Qingfeng Pavilion, looked at the empty bluestone road, sighed, and then walked into the house worriedly and sat on the small couch.

After a while, Xu Yue walked under the umbrella held by Youlan, came to the door of Mrs. Su's house, and watched Youlan take the umbrella and put it next to the door, and the little maid at the door lifted the curtain and said inside: "Master, madam, the cousin is here." ”

As soon as Xu Yue stepped in, he saw the Su family and his wife, sitting on the Luohan bed.

"Uncle, aunt." Xu Shili said.

She got up but heard Mrs. Su say to Youlan: "Youlan, right! You go out first! Let's talk to your girl. ”

Xu Yu turned his head to look at Youlan Shili and retreated, and looked back at the Su family and his wife with some confusion.

"Noir! You, are you ......" Su Guiyou said with difficulty to the promise.

"No'er, tell your aunt if you have a crush." Mrs. Su glanced at Su Guiyou and asked helplessly.

Xu Yu was suddenly shocked, and said in his heart, how could they ask like this, could it be that Su Qi told them, or .......

Xu Yu thought wildly in his heart, and listened to Mrs. Su continue: "I know that the girl's family chooses Langjun by herself, which is a little unruly, but it is not impossible. So don't be afraid, we're just asking. ”

"Nope." Xu didn't think about it, and denied it flatly.

"Oh! That's good, that's good. Mrs. Su glanced at Su Guiyou with a smile and said gently.

"I don't know, uncle, is there anything wrong with my aunt calling Nuo'er here?" Xu said that Xindao called me so late just to ask me if I had someone I liked!

"Oh! Noel, sit down first! Mrs. Su said softly.

After Su Guiyou looked at Xu Yu and sat down, he said: "Just now, General Qin sent a letter saying that he met your father in Huiwen Prefecture, and he said that he would protect your father and return to Beijing with your father." ”

Xu Yu nodded lightly, he understood, and then he heard Mrs. Su say: "It's not too early, you go back first!" We won't leave you here to eat, now the snow is a little heavy, I'm afraid that after a while, the snow is burying the road, and it will be difficult for you to go back. ”

"Yes, uncle and aunt, Nuo'er will go back first." Xu Promise got up and gave a gentle salute as he spoke, then turned and walked out.

The promise that came out of the curtain whispered to Youlan, who was standing aside and waiting, "Let's go!" ”

Youlan held up the umbrella and walked to the promise, and with the promise's steps, the master and servant slowly walked out of Mrs. Su's courtyard.

"Oops! Girl, you're coming. ”

As soon as Xu Yue lifted the curtain and walked into the house, he saw Mama Qiu running to her in a hurry and said.

"What's going on? A wolf has chased you. Hehe! Xu Promise said with a smile and joked to Mama Qiu.

"No, no, girl, I went to the kitchen to get food, and the maid who called me last time gave me another letter this time." Mama Qiu took out the letter from her arms and handed it to the promise who was untying her cloak.

Xu Promise took the letter, turned around and climbed the stairs, Youlan followed behind him with a cloak, and Mama Qiu was stunned for a while and followed.

Xu Yue walked to the table and sat down, and Mama Qiu behind her was stunned when she saw Xu Yue staring at the letter, and stepped forward and said, "Girl, can you eat now?" ”

Mama Qiu looked at Xu Promise and didn't speak, but Youlan pulled her, and she instantly realized that Xu Promise was thinking about things now and couldn't be disturbed. She took a slow step back and stood quietly to the side.

Xu Xu looked at the envelope, which had not a word, and was stunned for a while before slowly opening the envelope.

Xu Promise broke open the letter paper, approached the juan yarn lamp basket on the table, and looked at the letter that read:

Ling Zun will arrive in Chang'an early next month —— Zhinu

Xu Promise looked at the letter with only one line of words, smiled helplessly, and said that he could think of it.

"Let's eat!" Xu Yu suddenly realized that Mama Qiu and Youlan were staring at her, she put away the smile on the corner of her mouth, and said to Mama Qiu calmly.

"Yes, girl." Mama Qiu walked to the table with a smile and took out the food from the food box.

Youlan picked up the white porcelain bowl, filled a bowl of soup for the promise, and put it in front of the promise.

Half a quarter of an hour later, after eating, Xu Yu took a sip of tea, rinsed his mouth, wiped his mouth with an embroidered handkerchief, and said happily to Youlan: "Youlan, my father is coming back soon, and I am going to return to my uncle's mansion." ”

He smirked for a while, and then said, "By the way, I still have some silver tickets, so I'm giving you some!" You may not be able to go back with me, but it's good to have some more money here, and I'm saying that when I get home, I won't need that much money. ”

Promise got up, ran to the side of the bed, climbed into the bed, and took out four silver tickets from the pillowcase.

She turned around with a smile and shook the silver ticket at them, then looked at Mama Qiu with her hands and said, "Girl, this is unacceptable, you gave us a lot last time, and this time I really can't ask for it." You'd better keep it! Maybe you can still use it in Uncle Guo's mansion. ”

"Oops! How could it be! My father could not have done me any wrong. Promise replied.

"Girl, I don't want it." Youlan also echoed and said.

"No, if I take so much money back, my father will suspect it, or else, I will give you one in one person, and I will keep two to hide in case of emergency. Hehe! That's it. Xu Promise smiled and persuaded.

"Oops! Girl, you should go back and save more money for self-defense! Mama Qiu said refusingly.

"Girl, don't be busy with us first, listen to me first, after you go back, be more careful like Madame, she was our girl's personal maid, and within a month of marrying Madame, she climbed into Uncle Guo's bed, I know it's a little inappropriate to tell you this, but the old slave must say, in case you are calculated by her." Mama Qiu pressed the promise on the stool and whispered.

"Mama, Youlan, you also sit down. Mama, tell me about my mother's past, and my mother never mentioned her to me. Xu Yu pulled Mama Qiu to sit down and said.

"Alas! I didn't want to talk about these things, so I should repay our girl for saving her life! ”

Mama Qiu muttered in a low voice, straightened her waist, looked at the promise, and said with a firm gaze: "When the girl got married, she brought a personal maid such as a thin maid, and Mama Wei brought me, as well as me and the four little maids, we are all inferior maids and mothers-in-law. After the girl got married, it took more than half a year to get pregnant, but it was early, and the girl found out that she was pregnant in three months. We didn't know it at the time, until she gave birth three months earlier than the girl, and we didn't know that the word spread in the house, and Uncle Guo gave an order the next day that if anyone said about it, he would be killed. ”

Xu Yu looked at Mama Qiu and swallowed her saliva, she poured a cup of tea and handed it to Mama Qiu and said, "Mama speak slowly, drink saliva!" ”

"Thank you! Girl, you are as kind-hearted as our girls. Mama Qiu said with emotion.

Xu Promise smiled embarrassedly, and listened to Mama Qiu continue: "Until the girl gave birth to you, this matter was brought up again, and everyone talked about it, saying that she was a big girl, or you were a big girl." In the end, Uncle Guo ordered that you are the eldest girl of Uncle Guo's mansion. Xiru was dissatisfied with Uncle Guo, Uncle Guo didn't go to her since then, and I don't know what method she used, Uncle Guo didn't take long to go to her again, a year later, she was pregnant again, but the girl didn't move at all. Until now, the girl is the only child with you. ”

"Didn't my mother go to the doctor?" Xu Promise asked suspiciously.

"Hey! I saw it, and said that it was caused by smelling too much musk. We all feel that it is as fine as harm, that day when we discussed, unfortunately was heard by the thin maid, as fine as to kill me and the four little maids, the girl went to ask the uncle of the country, only to save our lives, the girl gave us our deed of sale, the four little maids have changed people, I am old, no one wants, the girl personally sent me back to the Su family, alas! Mama Qiu choked up and said, tears couldn't help dripping, Youlan looked at her with tears in her eyes and caressed her back.

Xu Promise smiled and said, "Mama, this is all over, don't think about it, it's not too early, let's rest!" I'll be talking about this money when I leave! ”

Xu Yue watched Youlan walk downstairs with Mama Qiu, who was wiping her eyes, and walked slowly to the bed, without taking off her clothes, kicked off her embroidered shoes, climbed into the bed, and covered the quilt.
