Steward Hao woke up the sleepy-eyed Qingfeng, and let Qingfeng stay here to guard the master, and he and Xu Lanyin walked out of the hall gently.

At this time, it was already the middle of the moon.

Steward Hao didn't want Xu Lanyin to go back to the Hu family now, for fear that if the master suddenly woke up. arranged for Zhao Wu to rest in the wing, and asked Banyue to take Xu Lanyin to the wings in the courtyard of the little lady Minjia to rest.

It is impossible for Xu Lanyin to live in the front yard, although there is an empty yard in the backyard, it has not been cleaned up. Now, Xu Lanyin is a distinguished guest in the eyes of Steward Hao, of course, it is impossible to wronged her to live in an uncleaned guest room, so she has to live in the courtyard of the little lady.

Steward Hao softly instructed Banyue, "Don't wake up my sister, if the uncle has been sleeping well, please ask Miss Xu to come here after breakfast there tomorrow morning." He smiled with Xu Lanyin again, "My sister is six years old and relatively quiet. I'm asleep now, and I won't get up until early tomorrow. ”

Zhao Wu nodded to Xu Lanyin, meaning that you can rest assured in the mansion of Minhu.

Xu Lanyin followed Banyue to the backyard.

The early summer night breeze was cool and fragrant with flowers, and the moonlight shone through the gaps in the branches and leaves, leaking shimmering pieces of silver. Walking in the strange and quiet courtyard, Xu Lanyin's mind was extremely clear.

They walked through a secluded path to the second gate, knocked on the second door, and went directly to a small courtyard.

gently slapped the small courtyard open, and Half Moon whispered to the girl who opened the door.

The girl nodded and let the two into the courtyard. The yard is full of flowers, fragrant and fragrant, so quiet that there is a sound of needles falling, and the "creaking" sound of opening the door is very obvious.

The girl led Xu Lanyin to the north room of the West Wing, where all the furniture was complete, and the girl took out a new futon from the big box and spread it.

Half Moon brought warm water, Xu Lan cleaned her face and feet, and only then did Half Moon go to the backyard room to rest.

Xu Lanyin plugged the door of the west chamber and lay down on the bed. After more than half a year, she slept on a soft bed for the first time, or a carved bird shelf bed, and it felt great.

Through the thin gauze tent, she stared at the carved window lattices sprinkled with moonlight and was stunned for a moment. Thinking that now that the family has money, I will go to the county seat to buy a yard and clean up the house elegantly and comfortably, so as not to wronged myself. When the Yiju Restaurant is served, maybe Zhao Wu has been transferred to the provincial capital, and his family has also come to the provincial capital to settle down and open a teahouse here......

She gradually became a little sleepy, and before she could fall asleep when she closed her eyes, she felt a slight sound in the lattice.

Xu Lanyin opened her eyes suddenly, and the sound was gone. Thinking it might be a hallucination, she closed her eyes again, and the sound came again.

She got up lightly and went to the window, and opened the small window, which was slitted, and in front of the window stood a little girl.

Xu Lanyin was so frightened that her hair almost stood up, and she forced the scream into her throat.

Under the bright moonlight, the little girl was about six years old, wearing a white silk shirt and pants, her long black hair was scattered, her facial features were somewhat similar to those of Minhu, very thin, her chin was pointed, and her face was so white that it seemed to have no blood.

The little girl is holding a kitten doll in her left hand, the kitten is wearing a blue and white skirt, and the cat is wearing small flowers on its ears, which is from Xu Lanyin's hand, which should be given to her by Min Nan. Her eyes were dark and big, and she looked at Xu Lanyin quietly.

Xu Lanyin had already seen that this child was different from ordinary children. It's not a dementia, it's too silent, as silent as a pool of stagnant water. Minhu's voice said that she was speechless......

Xu Lanyin stuck her head out and laughed softly, "Is it Sister Jia'er?" ”

Min Jia didn't nod or shake his head, but picked up the big cat doll in his hand and shook it.

Xu Lanyin understood, she should have seen the kitten doll she was wearing. He smiled and said, "I know the big cat in your hand, I have a small kitten, which is its baby." ”

As she spoke, she turned around and brought over the kitten doll that was placed with her coat, the kitten was exactly the same as the big cat in Min Jia's hand, and even the color of the skirt was the same, but it was much smaller.

The little girl's silent eyes shrank slightly.

Xu Lanyin shook the kitten doll in his hand and smiled, "Shall I give this baby cat to you, so that their mother and daughter can be reunited." ”

A hint of joy flashed in Min Jia's silent eyes, and her little face suddenly became vivid. Xu Lanyin handed the kitten doll out the window, and Min Jia raised his hand to take it, but he had no intention of leaving.

The night breeze was still a little cold, and Xu Lan was afraid that she would be cold, so she smiled again, "It's late, sister, go back and rest." ”

Min Jia looked at her quietly, her feet didn't move as if they had taken root.

Xu Lanyin thought for a while, and said softly, "The big cat in your hand was also made by me, and I lived happily with this little cat before." One day, I went to Aunt Nan's house and gave the big cat to Aunt Nan. When I got home, I found that the kittens were crying sadly, and I regretted that I shouldn't have let them separate. Now, the mother and the baby are reunited, and they will never be separated in the future. ”

She wanted to have a good relationship with the little girl, so she made up this lie.

Xu Lanyin noticed that when she said, "The little kitten is so sad that she cries", Min Jia's eyes actually swelled with a layer of tears, and the little girl at this time looked like a child of a few years old.

When she said, "Never separate in the future", Min Jia's mouth hooked upwards and her eyes bent.

Xu Lanyin felt that she might have inadvertently touched the softest place of the child.

She smiled, "Sister wants the cat mother and the cat baby to be together forever, right?" ”

Min Jia nodded.

Xu Lanyin said again, "That sister came into the house, and Aunt Xu arranged a beautiful home for them." ”

The little girl can't be allowed to stand in the night wind all the time. Let her into the house first, and wait for her nurse or girl to pick her up.

Min Jia listened and really walked towards the door of the wing.

Xu Lanyin lit the candle on the table, opened the door and invited Min Jia into the house.

Such a child is sensitive, Xu Lan didn't dare to be too intimate, so she was always two steps away from her, and let the little girl sit on a chair in the bedroom.

Xu Lanyin looked around and saw a plum-shaped lacquer eight-treasure box on the chest of drawers. She went over to take off the lid of the box, folded a green silk tablecloth from the top of the table and put it into the lid, and specially folded two extra layers on one side as pillows.

After that, he smiled at Min Jia and said, "Put the cat mother and the baby cat on it, they are sleepy." ”

Min Jia was stunned, very novel, but carefully put the two cat dolls in his hand into the lid, and adjusted their posture to make them sleep more comfortably.

Put it away, Xu Lan looked around, there was nothing better to use as a quilt for cat dolls, so she had to take out a handkerchief from her arms and cover the two cat dolls. smiled at Min Jia, "Sister, look, are their pillows and quilts good-looking?" ”

Min Jia nodded, looking intently at the cat doll.
