Zhu Qian misunderstood Liu Xin's gaze, although no one said it explicitly, everyone knew that Liu Xin would stay in her room tonight. So, Liu Xin originally just affirmed her performance at dinner tonight, but she understood it as something else.

It's no wonder that although Zhu Qian is strict with her daughter, she loves her very much in her heart, and Rui'er has been sleeping with her all the time Liu Xin has been out of the world. Liu Xin has been out for so long, and Ma Yun and Bian Yu are both five months pregnant, so they are obviously not suitable for that thing, and they are destined to have a storm tonight.

In fact, Zhu Qian is also looking forward to this moment in her heart, she is a normal young woman, and she also has a strong **, especially after following Liu Xin, she has experienced the happiness of being a woman. At the same time, Zhu Qian was very conflicted, Rui'er was not born to Liu Xin after all, and the seven-year-old already knew a lot of things, so she was sent to another room tonight, but she slept with Liu Xin, who knows what she would think.

Just when Zhu Qian was nervous and at a loss, Liu Xin walked into the small courtyard with her hands behind her back and leisurely. The first one turned out to be Liu Rui, this little girl used to be always kind to Liu Xin, but the biggest reason was that she was a little afraid of him. What no one expected was that because she told a story yesterday afternoon, Liu Xin has now become her dearest person in Rui'er's eyes. In the past, Liu Rui was always forced by Zhu Qian to reluctantly call him dad, but now he ran over happily, took Liu Xin's hand, and shouted sweetly: "Dad, are you here to tell me a story?" ”

Liu Xin picked up the little girl, gently scraped her fingers on her nose, and said, "Rui'er, my father is here to tell you a story." ”

Liu Rui slapped her little face and said happily: "Oh, great, listen to my father's story." ”

Under the dim oil lamp, Zhu Qian was making a female red stitch by stitch, occasionally raising her head to look at Liu Xin's father and daughter, Liu Rui supported her chin, her big eyes flashed, and she was listening attentively. Zhu Qian's heart suddenly felt warm, and now she finally has a sense of home.

Before I knew it, the drum outside was beating three times. If it was usual, at most at the second watch, Liu Rui would be coaxed to sleep by Zhu Qian, but today the little girl's spirit is still very full. Zhu Qian wanted to get up and urge several times, but when she saw Liu Xin, who was foaming at the mouth, she still endured it.

Liu Xin saw that it was already three watches outside, touched Liu Rui's little head, and said, "Dad will talk about this today, Rui'er is obedient, it's time to sleep, Dad will continue to talk tomorrow." ”

Liu Rui tilted her head and looked at Liu Xin and said, "Dad, you are not allowed to deceive people." ”

Zhu Qian hurriedly blamed: "Rui'er, how can you talk to the master like this!" ”

Liu Xin stretched out her hand to stop her, and said to Liu Rui with a smile: "Good, dad is a talker, when did he deceive someone." ”

Liu Rui looked serious and said, "Dad is not ashamed, Dad lied, Dad lied to me yesterday." ”

Liu Xin said strangely: "Yesterday? When did I lie to you yesterday? Yesterday I promised to continue today, but now I'm not talking. ”

Liu Rui pouted and said, "Hmph, my father said yesterday that this story was told by my mother." Today, the eldest mother said that she has never heard this story, didn't you see that the eldest mother also listened to it with relish in the afternoon? ”

Liu Xin couldn't help but wonder, this little girl can also analyze and think, her head is quite bright, her eyes rolled, and she said, "Auntie, they all like to listen to your stories?" ”

Liu Rui said proudly: "Yes, they all like to listen to it so much, and let me continue to talk about it tomorrow." ”

Liu Xin smiled and coaxed her: "Na Rui'er is going to bed early, if you don't sleep again, you will forget all the things that your father said just now." ”

Liu Rui tilted her head sideways and thought for a while, and said, "Rui'er listens to her father, and Rui'er wants to sleep with her father." ”

As soon as the little girl said this, Zhu Qian had already lowered her head in embarrassment, and from the root of her ears to her neck, she turned red. Liu Xin also laughed helplessly and said, "Okay, Rui'er and Daddy sleep together, come, be good, go to sleep." ”

After turning off the lights, Liu Rui unceremoniously lay down between the two of them, a pair of white and tender arms were still tightly wrapped around Liu Xin's neck, in the eyes of the little girl, this stepfather was more than her own father. Zhu Qian's ex-husband has always wanted a son, but Zhu Qian has never been able to conceive again since she gave birth to her daughter.

It didn't take much effort for the little girl to snore slightly, although it was dark night, Liu Xin's eyesight was excellent, and she could see a sweet smile on her face. Liu Xin gently took the little girl's arm away, reached out and touched Zhu Qian in the bed, he was indeed suffocated during this time.

Zhu Qian let Liu Xin's big hand roam around her, and gradually became a little emotional, but with her daughter in the middle, she didn't dare to move, and she didn't even dare to come out, for fear that her daughter would hear something that she shouldn't hear. Zhu Qian gritted her teeth and frowned, forcing herself to hold back, but her breathing became heavier and heavier.

Liu Xin smiled and said, "I'll send Rui'er to the wing." ”

Zhu Qian said worriedly: "Don't, don't wake her up." ”

Liu Xin had already picked up the little girl with the quilt and said, "Don't worry, she sleeps to death, even if she throws her into the river, she won't wake up." ”

Without the small light bulb in the middle, the two people hugged each other affectionately, and for a while, the sound of the bed swaying, moaning, and wheezing rippled in the room, forming a beautiful symphony......

The clouds and rain stopped, Liu Xin did not need to be as demanding as usual, and even the movements of the wave just now were much gentler. Zhu Qian was lying quietly in Liu Xin's arms, she could clearly feel Liu Xin's changes, and she was smart enough to naturally understand that Liu Xin did this entirely because she was pregnant. Without a thousand words, Zhu Qian felt a strong sense of love, and at this moment, she finally completely relaxed herself and walked out of the shadows of the past.

Liu Xin caressed her body and said softly: "In the future, you are not allowed to be a subordinate in the mansion again, you are my woman and one of the hostesses in this mansion." In the future, you are not allowed to control Rui'er so strictly, you see that her lively surname is all wiped out by you, and I will treat her as my own daughter. In the future, you have to relax yourself, you are always so thoughtful, people are easy to get old, I will be angry......"

Liu Xin wanted to say these words to Zhu Qian a long time ago, but every time she fell asleep in Liu Xin's arms in the past, she didn't find a chance until today. Only when his women really regard themselves as members of this family, can Liu Xin feel at ease to work outside without any worries. No matter what Liu Xin said, Zhu Qian just said "um" softly, and she was still intoxicated with the happiness just now.

In the next few days, Liu Rui became busy, and the most important thing for the little girl every morning was to pester Liu Xin to tell stories, and she listened very carefully, for fear of missing a detail. In the afternoon, it was time for her to hold a storytelling meeting, she not only spoke vividly, but also always added a lot of body movements, Ma Yun, Bian Yu and other listeners were often amused by her. Liu Rui's innocent and lively surname that has been bound by Zhu Qian for a long time has been completely released, and she is now a little pistachio in the state pastor's mansion, where is she still like the original stupid little girl.

Zhu Qian, who usually only knows that she is busy with housework, seems to have been infected, and she also joins the ranks of the audience when she is fine, her daughter is happy, and she is also happy, and the original inexplicable worries are always thrown out of the clouds.

Cai Yan is now on time every afternoon, not only because the plot of this story deeply attracted her, but also because these stories were made up by Liu Xin. In Cai Yan's heart, being able to make up such a wonderful story, except for a talented and talented man like Liu Xin, others can't do it. While listening to the story, Cai Yan couldn't help but look around, expecting to see Liu Xin's figure, but he couldn't always get his wish.

All this can't escape Ma Yun's eyes, to be honest, Ma Yun still has a good impression of this talented and good-looking little sister, not to mention that she can be counted as her fan at all. Since Liu Xin accepted Zhu Qian, Ma Yun's thinking has completely changed, she no longer has the luxury of being able to monopolize Liu Xin, as long as her position in his heart is unique, she will be satisfied. If Liu Xin was willing, Ma Yun wouldn't mind Cai Yan marrying in, but she also knew that Cai Yong, a university scholar, would agree to let her daughter be a concubine for someone else, and it seems that the two of them can only have a fate.

In a few days, it was Chinese New Year's Eve. This year is different from usual, this is Liu Xin and his family spending Chinese New Year's Eve alone. With Zhu Qian, a good housekeeper, naturally there is no need for Liu Xin and Ma Yun to worry about them, and all affairs are arranged in an orderly manner.

There is also an ancestral hall built behind the governor's house, which is a place to worship ancestors. Liu Xin's current identity is a member of the Han family, and it stands to reason that Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, wants to worship, but there is no portrait of him at home, and more importantly, Liu Xin is not interested in this rogue, scoundrel-born guy, and feels that he is no better than himself as a thief. The person he really wants to thank is actually his stepfather, if it weren't for the fact that he met his stepfather at the beginning, and then so many things happened by accident, he would not have the status he has today.

As a result, a beautiful lacquerware box was placed on the incense table in the ancestral hall, and it was this box that led to all the adventures that followed. Liu Xin took Ma Yun, Bian Yu, Zhu Qian, Liu Yu and Liu Rui, and bowed respectfully three times towards the box. According to Zhu Qian, women are not allowed to enter the ancestral hall, but Liu Xin obviously ignores this, and Ma Yun also scoffs at this idea of male superiority and inferiority.

The Chinese New Year's Eve dinner was very rich, and Liu Xin also personally cooked some game, which made him and Ma Yun feel that there was a fly in the ointment, that is, there was no stir-fry. Liu Xin has secretly made up his mind to wait for the New Year to take some time to invent the wok and shovel. With the adaptation some time ago, now the whole family sits together to eat, and the atmosphere is extraordinarily harmonious.

After dinner, Liu Xin took Liu Rui and Liu Yu to set off firecrackers in the yard, and used the sound of "crackling" to drive away evil spirits and welcome the New Year.

Ma Yun looked at Liu Xin, who looked like a naughty boy, and said with a smile: "Okay, don't scare the child, it's time to post Spring Festival couplets." ”

Liu Xin patted his head: "Oh, how did I forget about this, this year's couplet is not ready yet." ”
