Two days later, Yuyang's reply arrived.

Afu sat under the window and read the letter, frightened.

This letter was ghostwritten by Mrs. Mu's maid.

After Zhu Shuomeng was bought into the army, Jin Qing has been locked in the backyard.

Mrs. Mu was not in good health for a long time, so Jin Shao did not let her visit, until one night Jin Qing smashed the door lock and escaped.

At that time, Jin Yao also came back, and the two brothers sent countless families to turn Yuyang upside down, and they never found any clues.

In the end, she couldn't hide it from Mrs. Mu, she was like being struck by lightning, crying every day, and her eyes were crying.

What Jin Heng was worried about finally happened.

Afu clutched the letter paper and didn't recover for a long time.

She felt a little guilty and self-blame, if she had persuaded Brother Jin Shao at that time, would things not be like this?

Sakura Sakura came over and put a small coat on her, squatted down and looked out along her gaze, only to see the osmanthus tree, which drew new branches and sprouts, strange and gratifying: "What do you look at, girl?" So distracted? ”

It's been almost two years, and Sakura sometimes calls her girl.

Afu said in a low voice: "Godmother's eyes are crying. ”

Sakura was stunned and stood up involuntarily: "Why are you crying?" Isn't that slut back? ”

Afu shook her head: "Jin Qing ran away." ”

Sakura Sakura was stupid, she didn't know what to say, and she said for a long time: "Oh my God, should Mrs. write this matter in the letter sent to Jin Heng's son?" He must have been worried when he knew. ”

Afu sighed and stood up holding Sakura's hand.

"Write, how can you not write."

A series of things made Afu very depressed, and she felt a little sad about the difficulties of life.

At this time, seeing Xiaorou's carefree smiling face, it was like a beam of sunshine shining in.

Therefore, as soon as Afu was free, she went straight to Qingyaju, and Huan Xian took Xiaorou to wander around the spring-filled Pei Mansion.

Ji Heng and Shu Yu came back from the next court, and what was waiting for them was always a dark courtyard, and the two could only say to each other that they were hard brothers and sisters.

Huan Xian always felt that Afu was an outsider, and Wang Xi was her sister-in-law and cousin.

Looking at Afu, who was staring at Xiaorou with low eyes, she suddenly felt as if she had closed the door of her heart at the beginning.

Afu gently plucked a leaf that fell on Xiao Rou's face, and said with a smile: "The child grows up really fast, I see her look the same every day." ”

Huan Xian smiled and nodded: "Yes." The days have passed really fast, and in a blink of an eye, Xiaorou has been ten months. ”

Afu looked at the sweet sleeping Xiaorou and said, "Yes..."

It's almost a year coming.

A-Niang just passed away at this time last year, and now that a year has passed, the white silk in the house has just been removed, and I am afraid that Master Mu will accept the bride.

The world is impermanent, and she is still not pregnant.

Huan Xian took Afu's hand and said gently, "What does my sister-in-law think?" ”

Ah Fu didn't hide it from her, and frowned: "I really envy you, you are accompanied by such a little person." ”

Huan Xian knew that she was worried that she had not been pregnant for a long time, so she relieved her heart and said: "The second sister-in-law is in good health, and I am afraid that there will be more children in the future!" If I feel lonely right now, I hugged Xiaorou, I'm tired and panicked! ”

This was naturally Huan Xian's polite words, and Ah Fu didn't take it seriously, and said with a smile: "If I really took it away, you must be going to kill me." ”

Huan Xian also laughed, smiling and smiling, and suddenly thought of the scene of Xiangyuan, who was raised by Afu, crying at every turn at last year's New Year's banquet.

She was stunned in her heart, listening to Afu's words, I'm afraid that Xiangyuan's A-Niang is not simple.

Huan Xian seemed to say unintentionally: "What happened to Xiangyuan?" ”

Afu smiled: "People have their own mothers, I don't want to get involved." ”

Huan Xian was even more aware in his heart, so he didn't mention it, and laughed: "But the second sister-in-law is dominating other people's fathers!" I see that the second brother has hardly ever been close to Xiangyuan, right? This child is one year old and eight months old, and when he sees his second brother, he doesn't know that he is called Daddy, which shows how estranged he is on weekdays. ”

Afu nodded: "Yes, my husband didn't like children." ”

She touched Xiao Rou's little face and said with a smile: "But except for Xiao Rou, he is envious of Ji Heng, there is such a lovely girl." ”

Huan Xian smiled: "My husband is also a hands-off shopkeeper, when Xiaorou is happy, he comes to join in the fun, and when he cries, he will be taken away." ”

Afu clasped her palms, and couldn't help but think of Wang Xi who was still locked up in Wutong Courtyard.

The right prime minister's mansion is just one street away from Pei's mansion, and Wang Youxiang, as Wang Xi's biological father, has never even come to see Wang Xi once.

Although from time to time, there are servants who are ordered to come to send this and that, but the king will not personally manage the house, probably it is the intention of others.

Wang Xi has been locked up in the palace for six months now, and when he went to see her a few days ago, his eyes were dull, and his mouth was full of "thieves hurt my husband" and "I want to avenge Zhong Ju".

I could see that people were feeling sorry for themselves, but they didn't dare to speak out, so they could only let the government doctor hastily diagnose and treat them, but there were signs of getting heavier and heavier.

There has been no news of his daughter for six months, and Wang Xiang has not had the slightest doubt.

Is fatherly love so thin?

Afu thought of Master Xiang, and in all fairness, Master Xiang was very fond of her.

Treating her since she was a child, even if she was scolded last time, she will not be treated differently in the future.

It's Afu herself, and her state of mind can't go back to the past. As long as she doesn't think about it deliberately, Daddy and Auntie will hardly jump into her mind.

In a flash, I haven't been back for almost a year.

But it's okay, anyway, it's about to be the New Year, and this year is definitely going to hold a serious family banquet, maybe you have to do a war of words.

Because Aunt Li's daughter Xiang Yu will be ten years old next year, she will be included in the family tree according to the law. Whether it is good or low, it is not yet known.

Aunt Li is a lowly woman from Goulan, and she can only be a room according to the law, but because of the charm of the fox, she made an exception, and everyone in the house called her aunt, and she also asked for permission from the lord to raise Xiang Yu personally.

It is not too much for a lowly concubine to raise her children in person, but she wants to bring her own doll and want her to follow her mother into a good family, which is too deceitful.

In the past ten years, Mrs. Xiang has had more than one attack every year, and it has been broken by Aunt Li's method of turning steel into finger wrapping. At this year's family dinner, I'm afraid it's time to fight to the death.

If it is really when the family tree is rebuilt next year, Xiang Yu, who grew up with his biological mother since he was a child, is written under the name of the main mother, and Mrs. Xiang has to set the family ancestral hall on fire.

Afu has been out of her mind for a long time, and Huan Xian didn't say anything, looking at the distance steadily.

Ah Fu followed her gaze and saw that Mrs. Pei was holding the little maid and looking out from afar on the Double Wild Goose Pagoda.

Pei Mansion has three groups of courtyards, and the entrance is directly opposite the outer hall used to see guests, the Hundred Lion Hall; Walking to the right-hand side is the courtyard where Rongdongyuan, Dehetang Qingyaju and other masters live.

Behind the Baishi Hall, separated by a high wall, is the backyard where the ancestral hall is located, surrounded by green mountains and small rivers.

Among them, the east side of the family ancestral hall is the Xiangyi Terrace where Afu and others are located, and the west side echoes the tallest building in the entire Pei Mansion - the Double Wild Goose Pagoda.

Because there are a lot of precious ancient musical instruments hidden in it, no one goes to the tower when they are idle, and Afu has never been there, only to hear Shuyu say, looking south from the top of the tower, you can always see the Qujiang Pond full of peach trees.

Old lady Pei can lead that maid up so many floors of the tower, but it can be regarded as a heart.

Huan Xian said worriedly: "Look at this, my father-in-law is afraid that he will soon accept her through the door...."

"Brother and sister, have you ever called that Aunt Man'er? Or mother-in-law? ”

Huan Xian glanced at Afu: "I can't shout!" Besides, I'm ashamed to be my maid just like that..."

Afu smiled and motioned for her to silence: "You should be careful, too!" In case it is heard, it will be another storm! ”

Huan Xian smiled: "Second sister-in-law, you are really mature, and now you can be regarded as paying attention everywhere and always careging." I remember when you first walked through the door, you were more innocent than Shure..."

Afu thought to herself, I'm just going to put it out, and I'm going to be careful. He only smiled on his face: "My husband is busy at home and away during this time, and I really don't want to add to his thoughts." You also know that I really don't dare to meddle in my sister-in-law's matter, so I can only keep him busy. ”

Huan Xian nodded: "It's better not to interfere, maybe one day my uncle Wang Youxiang and the queen will remember to care again." ”

Afu was about to inquire, and suddenly Wanwan trotted all the way over, although she did not lose her manners, a layer of fine sweat had already oozed from her forehead: "I have seen the second lady, the third lady." ”

"Get up, what's the matter?"

Wanwan's face was solemn: "Madam, the second master just sent the news that Qiao Guifei's little prince has died, and the emperor should order the hundred officials to wear filial piety, please prepare for it." In addition, it may be rumored that the lady will enter the palace to comfort the concubine and ask the lady to bathe and cleanse herself first. ”
