Chapter 165 Be Strong
In the days that followed, the atmosphere in Kyoto did become strange, there were many more officers and soldiers on the streets, the officials' homes were much quieter, the banquets were sharply reduced, and the ladies and dependents hardly went out.
"It's a good thing we didn't bring peace back!" Xiao Jingyan expressed his merits, how decisive and witty he is! It is a very wise choice to leave the little niece in the safer palace courtyard.
"Our family is also more peaceful, and the ladies don't go out recently, let alone discuss state affairs in private." The old man, who had been promoted to the rank of marquis, glared at his complacent youngest son and said, although it is a special pity that he has not been able to see his baby granddaughters recently, but for the sake of his granddaughter's health and safety, such an arrangement is already the best.
"You brothers, who are already on errands, do more things and talk less, and when the time comes, hurry home as soon as possible; A few students should not participate in other people's discussions on state affairs in the academy, do not stay outside after school, and if there are disobedient people, they will serve in the family law, do you hear clearly? Following the old marquis's speech, Xiao Jingkang, as the head of the new generation of the family, carefully instructed his nephew.
"Got it." The six boys replied in a low voice, only Xiao Jun replied weakly, since he knew that his sister would not come back in a short time, he had become this weak.
"Next time, the fourth uncle will go to the other courtyard to take you, don't look depressed." My niece is a little devil, and I only feel fear and helplessness for her now, and I miss her a long, long time ago.
Xiao Jun examined the fourth uncle up and down, and finally turned his head in distrust, this fourth uncle is unreliable, and it is better to pray for the Bodhisattva to come to reality!
"Good intentions are not rewarded, who else can you trust if you don't trust me." Xiao Jingyan, who thought he was very capable, was full of confidence and waited for his nephew to take the initiative to show goodwill, as long as he said good things for half an hour, he would reluctantly bring this kid next time.
"Next time, let your third aunt take you there, don't be sad." Xiao Jingtai couldn't get used to the fourth brother's show-off appearance, did he really think that he couldn't do anything without him? This guy has never been self-aware, how can he still not look like he has caused so much trouble, and there is no more worrying thing in the family than him.
was cut off halfway, Xiao Jingyan was very unhappy, not only could he not show off now, but he also had no capital to invite merit when he saw his little niece again, and the second brother has now learned badly These people must have been infected by their little niece to be like this, yes, it must be.
Xiao Jingyan, who always puts himself in the position of being out of the mud and unstained, will never discredit himself, how suave he is, and his character is valuable! The bad ones are all others, and they have nothing to do with him for half a penny.
Xiao Yao waited for two days and didn't wait for the person who came to pick him up, and she couldn't help but become wilted.
"Ping'an, what's wrong?" At dinner, Yin Qianhua asked with concern.
"Two days ago, my fourth uncle said that he would take me and Ruyi home for a few days, but why didn't he come until now!" Xiao Yao said sullenly.
Yin Qianhua pondered for a moment before she spoke: "There have been some things happening in Kyoto recently, the streets are full of officers and soldiers, and few people have gone out, and after a period of time, I will ask your cousin to send you home for a few days." ”
It is difficult for such a young child to endure both physical pain and longing for his family.
"Dr. Lin told me about the condition of the two of you, and that safe acupuncture can be changed from once every other day to once every five days, and you can stop acupuncture after a month, and you can just take medicine until the New Year." Tell this child some good news, and hope she will be happier.
"Really!" So you're going to be back to normal soon? Phew, is the body about to fully recover? After suffering for such a long time, it finally paid off, and Xiao Yao's depressed mood really cleared up in an instant, revealing a clear sky.
"Of course it's true." Seeing that this child was happy, Yin Qianhua felt happy when she saw Xiao Yao's flower-like smile.
"What about the county lord's body!" After getting along for so long, Xiao Yao has already regarded Yun Ruonan as a friend, and when she is happy to learn that she can recover, she will naturally remember her friend.
Yin Qianhua looked at Xiao Yao's gaze more gently, she smiled and said gently: "Ruonan's acupuncture will be changed to once every three days, and it can be stopped after a month, but you will have to take a decoction for a period of time in the future, and after a year, Doctor Lin will take time to give Ruonan a follow-up, depending on the situation, but Doctor Lin also said that Ruonan's body will definitely recover." ”
"Yes, we'll all recover soon, and then the three of us will go to see the sunrise and the sea together." Xiao Yao looked at Yun Ruonan with a bright smile, a table of people who can best understand the mood of the county lord is none other than Xiao Yao, a word of comfort, a little encouragement can make those who endure the torture of illness ignite hope and have the courage to overcome the disease.
"Well, let's go together." Yun Ruonan responded happily to Xiao Yao, since she ate and lived with the Xiao sisters, she has really changed a lot, she is more cheerful, she talks more, and her eyes have more brilliance, these changes King Jing and his wife have noticed it.
"You're all good boys." Yin Qianhua touched the heads of the two children with satisfaction, they were really sensible and obedient children.
Xiao Yuan was originally feasting, and when she saw the warm interaction between the three of them, she also wanted to participate, why did the princess and aunt only touch her sisters and ignore herself!
Yin Qianhua raised her hand and patted her head after noticing her niece's complaining eyes, because she really couldn't think of anything to comfort this niece who ate well, slept well, and had a body stronger than a calf, so she didn't force herself and embarrassed herself.
This treatment is not the same! Xiao Yuan came to Yin Qianhua and strongly demanded that everyone be treated equally, and that people who eat Ma Ma Xiang should not be discriminated against.
"You!" Yin Qianhua, who was entangled and had no choice, had no choice but to touch Xiao Yuan's head, and the latter returned to his seat to continue to fight with the food.
"You should learn this from Ruyi." Yin Qianhua pointed to a plate in front of Xiao Yuan that was about to bottom out and said, it is not unreasonable for people to grow a body of meat, she alone has a larger amount of food than the two children. And Yin Qianhua felt that since she ate at the same table with her niece, her meal has grown. Because when you see her eating, you can't help but think that the dish must be delicious, and you can't help but want to taste it when you see her eating with relish and endless aftertaste.
"I really can't learn this." Xiao Yao has been cultivated for several years and still can't imitate her sister's appearance, she is not envious, but she has a limited amount of food, so she can't make Xiao Yuan's appearance.
Yun Ruonan studied for a while and was defeated, bowing down in front of her cousin, seeing her rosy and shiny lips, Yun Ruonan swallowed her saliva, turned her gaze just to meet Xiao Yao's gaze, the two looked at each other and smiled, and helplessly said that they really couldn't learn.
"We are born with a good appetite, and it is useless for others to envy me, I must eat well and eat well, as long as I have the strength to protect my two sisters in the future!" Look at how you are about to fall when the wind blows, and I don't expect anyone to count on! After Xiao Yuan, who was ashamed to make excuses for eating and drinking, said this, a string of laughter came from the dining room.
Knowing that this is a special period, Xiao Yao no longer worries about going home, and she spends the remaining time after studying reading books and practicing embroidery. There is no way that there are too many people in the family, and Xiao Yao can't do the things that are treated differently, so she can only either not do it, and if she wants to do it, she will bring it according to the number of people, and she will bring it with her. It's better now, and there will be more Yun Ruonan's part, you can imagine how difficult the task is.
Because her daughter's physical condition does not allow, Yin Qianhua never forced her to learn those things that bothered her mind and brainpower, and now her motherly heart has a place to use, she seems to pay special attention to and get busy, not only to find the best silk thread and brocade for Xiao Yao, but also to find an embroidery master for her to be a master, the double-sided embroidery is really amazing, lifelike, Xiao Yao vowed to study hard, and embroider exquisite jewelry and clothes for her family in the future.
"Don't forget my share with Ruonan, my aunt is not greedy, as long as everyone gives one every year when we celebrate our birthday."
At this point, Xiao Yao knew that Princess Jing was born in June of the lunar calendar every year, and silently calculated in her heart that Xiao Yao found that there were less than ten days before the princess's birthday. It's definitely too late to embroider now, not to mention that my craft has not been practiced well, and it can't reach the level of making a birthday gift. In the past, the purses and trinkets embroidered by themselves had a lot of opportunistic elements in them, and they were barely enough to give to their families, and if they were given to outsiders, they couldn't do it at all.
After thinking about it, I had to go back to my old business and paint a portrait of the princess, but if my sister was not ready, the sisters had to appear in the form of a combination again, according to Xiao Yao's estimate, this possibility is very great, because Xiao Yuan runs and plays like crazy every day in addition to the necessary homework, like a loose pony.
"It's good to let her run and jump more." Yin Qianhua likes to listen to her niece's cheerful laughter and happy appearance, and besides, Ruyi has her own princess and aunt, and her grandfather is the famous Yuan family, so will she still have to worry about getting married in the future?
Yin Qianhua also wants to be Xiao Yao's backing, but the child seems to be weak, but in fact he is very strong, what he wants to learn must be learned, reading and writing are not counted, after worshipping this embroidery master, he can't keep the needlework day and night, and sometimes a pair of big eyes are boiled red.
"If you do this again, my aunt will send the embroiderer away."
"Don't, can't I change it?" Xiao Yao said that she would change it, only embroidering for one hour a day, and leaving enough rest time in the middle, so Yin Qianhua put her mind at ease and arranged her birthday.
In this special period, she doesn't plan to invite outsiders, she just thinks about a few people in her family and two nieces to have a meal together.
