Chapter 33: Master and Servant

The morning air is cool and pleasant, the sky is blue and almost transparent, and sparrows are chirping in groups above the green branches.

At the gate of Xiao's mansion, Yelu opened the curtain of the carriage and helped Xiao Siwen down, Han Kuangsi and Han Derang were about to come down to say goodbye, Xiao Siwen waved his hand, "You haven't slept all night, let the slanting send you back to rest." ”

Han Kuangsi thanked him again and again. Han Derang also bowed, his eyes as if he could see something through the gate of Xiao Mansion.

Xiao Siwen instructed Yelu to slanted, "We must send Lord Han's father and son back to the mansion safely." He nodded and entered the Xiao Mansion.

The door of the Xiao Mansion opened and closed, cutting off Han Derang's thoughts.

Han Kuangsi said viciously, "Can't you see enough?" He glared at Han Derang, then turned into the carriage and threw down the curtain heavily.

Han Derang looked at Yelu obliquely, shook his head, and smiled bitterly.

Jerew smiled back and understood, then waved his hand and asked him to sit back into the carriage.

Yelu drove the carriage around and headed towards Hanfu.

The carriage fell silent again, and father and son thought about each other.

"You shouldn't have agreed to Xiao Siwen so arbitrarily," Han Kuangsi forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart, "Our Han family is fortunate to be able to protect itself in this great Liao, how can we be greedy for clinging to the powerful?" Who could have known that King Jin would definitely be the final winner? His voice was very low, lest Jerod, who was driving, would hear a word.

Han Kuangsi is cowardly and afraid, and he only wants to be able to keep his Han family's hard-won property in this wild land, and he doesn't dare to think about climbing the dragon and attaching the phoenix anymore.

He thought that his son Han Derang was for the name of the Xiao family, a well-known royal relative, so he agreed to Xiao Siwen's request to marry.

How did Han Kuangsi know what Han Derang really thought? He didn't know that Han Derang disdained the Ronghua magnates, he didn't know Han Derang's benevolence, and he didn't know Han Derang's affection for Xiao Xuan's childhood sweetheart over the years.

Han Derang said lightly, "I really want to marry Yanyan, don't think about it." Dad, I won't involve the Han family, and Yanyan won't. ”

He knew that his father was loyal, and he didn't want to cause more trouble, and even taking refuge in Yeluxian was a decision made after careful consideration.

This said what Han Kuangsi was really worried about, what he was most afraid of was that one day the Xiao family would collapse and the Han family would suffer.

Han Kuangsi snorted coldly, "Hmph, the Han family and the Xiao family have always been good friends, how could I be afraid of this!" He also said this to save face in front of his son.

Han Derang was silent and no longer accepted Han Kuangsi's words.

Shaw House.

As soon as Xiao Siwen stepped into the courtyard, he saw Xiao Xuan and Ah Yu tending to peony flowers, and heard her tactful and beautiful voice, she was humming a grassland pastoral song, and her singing voice was melodious and moving.

This song tugged Xiao Siwen's thoughts, making him feel as if he had returned to his youth, when he first met Mrs. Xiao on the grassland.

At that time, Mrs. Xiao was still a little girl, she led the horse to stroll on the grassland, the beautiful pastoral song echoed in the empty field for a long time, and it was also such a dusty sky, occasionally geese fluttered their wings and flew by, he sat on the ground in front of the yurt on the grassland, and watched Mrs. Xiao walk all the way to himself with the sound of singing.

Xiao Siwen smiled and sighed, in the years, there will always be people who are old, and there will always be people who are young.

He looked at Xiao Xuan's cheerful figure and called softly, "Yanyan, get up so early?" ”

Xiao Yu turned around, handed the things in his hand to Ah Yu, and ran over happily, spilling a string of pleasant laughter.

She pulled Xiao Siwen's arm, "It's not early, I think that my flowers are awake and I haven't gotten up yet, they are going to laugh at me for being lazy!" She winked mischievously.

Where did she get up early, and she was obviously excited all night and didn't fall asleep.

Xiao Xuan couldn't help but be overjoyed at the thought of seeing Ye Luxian again in seven days.

"You girl." Xiao Siwen patted Xiao Xuan's hand and was amused by Xiao Xuan.

"My father attended Prince Zhao's wedding yesterday, and he couldn't rest well all night, right? Go and rest. Xiao Sui only said that it was Zhao Wangye, but she didn't mention Xiao Shuangshuang, she knew that it was impossible for her and her second sister to go back to the past, and her heart would sting when she thought about it, so it was better not to want to.

Xiao Siwen naturally noticed Xiao Xuan's words, he groaned slightly, nodded, he thought about it again and again, but he still didn't tell her about the conversation with Han Derang, and went back to the bedroom.

Xiao Sui looked up at the sky, so clean, so beautiful, how good it would be if life could be like this.

She pursed her lips, lowered her head and turned around, and inadvertently caught a glimpse of Xiao Shuangshuang's bedroom built opposite her.

That's fine.

She walked over to Arabic and picked up the kettle, happily watering the peony.

Ah Yu glanced at Xiao Shuangshuang's room and asked curiously, "Miss, did the master stay in King Zhao's Mansion all night yesterday?" Could it be that the second lady is so reluctant to be a master... It's not like yes..."

Ah Yu knew that Xiao Shuangshuang and the Xiao family had fallen out, so he asked.

Xiao Xuan ignored the Arabic language, but continued to hum the pastoral song happily, busy with his work.

"Third Miss, aren't you afraid that Second Miss will retaliate against you after she becomes Princess Zhao? Aren't you worried at all? Ah Yu has followed Xiao Yu for many years, so he has the courage to say it directly.

Xiao Yu was stunned, stopped humming the song, stopped pouring water, stood up, and looked at Ah Yu meaningfully, "Ah Yu, she is my own sister, she will only be good to me." ”

Ah Yu was about to argue, Xiao Yu said again, "Ah Yu, no matter where she is, she will always be the Xiao family, the master of the Xiao family, and your master, you have to remember." Her sharp gaze fell on Arabic language.

Xiao Sui didn't want to speak ill of her and use her identity as a master and servant to pressure her, especially to Ah Yu, who had followed her for many years, but she valued Xiao Shuangshuang more than anything else in her heart, even if Ah Yu was right, she didn't want to face such a cruel truth.

Ah Yu shrunk her neck, not daring to meet her gaze.

Under Ah Yu's drooping eyelashes, tears flowed, but there were wisps of hatred.

It's the status of a master and servant again! Could it be that she can only succumb to Xiao Xuan forever and be a lowly maidservant!

Xiao Sui looked at Ah Yu, who was trembling slightly, and sighed, "You go back and rest, I don't need your help now." He squatted down and fiddled with the peony flowers.

Fortunately, there are peonies.

Fortunately, we can still look forward to seeing each other in seven days.

Thankfully, he has.
