Xiao Yu'er and Changqi were in the Third Uncle's Mansion, and they didn't deliberately pay attention to the movements of Minzhou Mansion. But even so, they gradually felt the undercurrent surging beneath the calm surface of the lake.

Minzhou is far from as stable as they thought.

What made Xiao Yu'er even more convinced that the evidence that something big had indeed happened in Minzhou was that the third uncle Xu Chong ended his vacation ahead of schedule and went back to the water division camp on an errand.

Before leaving, he severely beat the subordinates in the mansion, and specially rearranged the guards in the mansion and arranged new patrol tasks. Then with an indifferent look, he left the Xu Mansion casually.

But as clever as a little fish, he still found the solemnity hidden behind the indifferent look of the third uncle.

Minzhou, I'm afraid something big has happened.

Xiao Yu'er was worried about the safety of her father and mother, and she couldn't eat well and couldn't sleep, but she became haggard in two days.

On this day, the two sisters went to Chen Jiayu to say goodbye after breakfast, but they saw that Chen Jiayu also looked like she was in a state of despair.

Changqi, who didn't have a door on her mouth, looked at the third aunt, and then looked at her sister, and blurted out a sentence, "Auntie and sister look the same, and they are all dark now." ”

Chen Jiayu let out an "ah", and reflexively touched his eyes with his hand. Immediately realized what Changqi said, Chen Jiayu's white face turned uncontrollably red.

There was suddenly one less person on the pillow, and Chen Jiayu couldn't sleep steadily. She tosses and turns at night, and usually has to stay up for most of the night before she sleeps, so that now there is no blue and black, and the whole person looks haggard.

But Chen Jiayu really didn't want to say this to the two children, so she made an excuse and said, "Brother Xu is getting bigger and bigger, and as soon as he moves in my stomach, I can't sleep." ”

When Chen Jiayu said this, she restrained herself from blushing, but her cheeks were still redder.

Brother Xu is Xu Chong's nickname for his son, and as for the big name, he is called Xu Changxu. But now that the child hasn't come out yet, the big name or something is just the husband and wife talking and listening to it in private, and outsiders don't know. It's a nickname, and it's already called out, whether it's the maid who waits closely, or Xiao Yu'er and Changqi, the two who want to be sisters, they all know that they are called Brother Xu.

But Brother Xu is only more than four months old now, and although there is already fetal movement, it is not too obvious. When Chen Jiayu said this, he fooled the two children who didn't understand anything. But if she didn't say this, she couldn't find any other excuse for the time being...... Anyway, after all, he told a lie, and Chen Jiayu's face was a little unbearable, so his cheeks turned even redder.

Xiao Yu'er is not easy to explain, she didn't sleep well purely because she felt that Minzhou was not peaceful.

My aunt is still pregnant, so it's not good to be scared again. Especially the third uncle is not in front of him now, if there is a change in Minzhou, the sailor camp will definitely not be a pure land. At that time, whether it is internal turmoil or external turmoil, it will need human lives to heal. As the largest force in Jiangzhou, the water division is designated with casualties.

…… Don't let your aunt know about it, or you won't be able to sleep at night.

Leaving from Chen Jiayu, Xiao Yu'er opened her mouth and said to Changqi, "We haven't been to see my father and mother for a few days, why don't we go over today?" ”

Changqi: "But my mother asked us to go there less, and I just saw my father and mother the day before yesterday." "The day before yesterday, they went to the street with the third aunt and the third aunt's sister-in-law, Sun.

Sun wanted to go to the restaurant to book a few tables and prepare Xu Chong's warm house wine - speaking of warm house wine, it was originally planned to be held three or five days after staying.

Who knows that Xu Chong is a bit of a pit, he really can't even find time to write invitations.

He doesn't write invitations, although Chen Jiaxu is robed with him, but he can't understand who he really befriends in the water master, so he can't make up his mind for him, right? Again, Chen Jiaxu has not held a brush since the death of his parents, and he can also read and break words, but the calligraphy cannot be called calligraphy, and the handwriting is not much better than that of a newly enlightened child.

In view of this, Chen Jiaxu categorically did not dare to write the invitation on his behalf, and Xu Chong couldn't spare time for a long time, so the matter was delayed.

It was delayed for a day or two until Xu Chong returned to the barracks ahead of schedule for some reason...... Okay, there's no need to hold it anytime soon.

Back to the present, the day before yesterday, Xiao Yu'er went shopping with the four of them, and when the third aunt and her sister-in-law went to the restaurant to try the dishes, Xiao Yu'er took Changqi to a post station and met her father.

That time was also a coincidence, Xu Erlang and Jinniang were both in the post station, but they were also busy with their feet not touching the ground, and they couldn't take the time to talk to their daughter.

In short, the meeting was hasty. But they finally met, and their father and mother were safe, and they also told the two sisters to be more peaceful recently, not to run around, and to go to the post station as little as possible.

Daddy's words are still in my ears, but it's only been a few days, why do you want to go to the post station to see my father?

Changqi touched her head, unable to understand. Xiao Yu'er glared at her, "Let you go and ask your father and mother to say goodbye, and you still push back, your father and mother really raised your daughter for nothing." ”

Changqi was innocently scared and confused.

Why is it raised for nothing? Obviously, she is a good baby who listens to her father's words, and her father and mother don't let them pass. My sister doesn't listen to my father's orders, it's my sister who is wrong, why does my sister still say her in turn?

I don't understand.

But there is no need to wait for Changqi to figure it out, because there is a mother-in-law outside who happily leads a woman dressed as an internal housekeeper and a little maid over.

Take a closer look, isn't it Aunt Qinghe?

Xiao Yu'er and Changqi saw it and hurried over to call someone.

Qinghe smiled and agreed, and at the same time greeted the two girls. Later, she said what she meant, "The master asked someone to send a post to the Qin Mansion, saying that he would visit the mansion tomorrow." Madame asked the two girls to pack up and go over together tomorrow. By the way, let me bring some fresh fruit to the two girls and the third lady to taste. ”

While he was talking, another little maid commanded several mothers-in-law and brought two baskets in.

One of the baskets was filled with yellow, orange and orange oranges, Changqi liked to eat oranges the most, and couldn't wait to peel one off and stuff it into his mouth, squinting his eyes in satisfaction, "It's so sweet." ”

Xiao Yu'er wants to stare at her sister again, she is also a girl from the Governor's Palace, can she not be so unparticular about eating? How about you pluck the veins on the oranges! This was swallowed in the vein, and she felt very uncomfortable.

However, in front of the public, Xiao Yuer cared about her sister's face, and did not lecture her on the spot.

Changqi, who was dull, didn't know that he had escaped. At this time, she went to another basket, which contained a basket of bright red winter dates.

The things that can be delivered to the Governor are carefully selected. It is particularly sweet with tangerine, and even the winter dates are all big, and they are also sweet, and they are very comfortable to eat.

Xiao Yu'er and Qing He were talking, while asking people to carry things to the third aunt's yard.

Chen Jiayu got the letter and said that the aunt who was the housekeeper next to the second sister-in-law came over, so she hurriedly got up to entertain her. Qinghe has always been a good person, and he will talk about thoughtfulness, and offer the blood bird's nest specially prepared by Jinniang for Chen Jiayu, as well as nourishing holy products such as snow clams, so that Chen Jiayu can take care of the fetus, but Chen Jiayu is not moved, and his mouth is full of gratitude for the second sister-in-law.

Qinghe sat with him for a while, and was about to go back.

Xiao Yu'er and Changqi personally sent her out, and when the two sisters came back, Chen Jiayu had already asked people to send most of the winter dates and tangerines to their yard. Even the blood bird's nest and snow clams that were originally said to be for Chen Jiayu's body, Chen Jiayu also gave a part to the two little nieces.

"You are young, it is the time to grow your body, eat more good body bones to be strong."

The things have already been sent, and there is no reason to return them. Xiao Yu'er was embarrassed, and then talked about going to Qin Mansion as a guest tomorrow.

Jin Niang meant to let Chen Jiayu also go over and sit down. After all, they are neighbors, and Chen Jiayu also has a place to spend time after some contacts.

Chen Jiayu had her own concerns, so she said to Xiao Yu'er, "I am heavy now, and it is not too late to visit after giving birth to Brother Xu." Xiao Yuer didn't know that there was a saying in Minzhou that 'there are sick people at home, and pregnant women should not come to the door', saying that they were afraid of restraining people. On the Qin Mansion, in addition to the Qin family, there are also the grandsons of the old man Qin and the old lady's relatives who also live in the mansion. I heard that the little boy was a poor man, because of the persecution of his stepmother, his body was very unhappy. My aunt is pregnant, and if she goes past to her cousin, she won't be beautiful. ”

Xiao Yu'er has never heard the saying that 'there are sick people at home, and pregnant women should not come to the door'. When she was in the capital, she had only heard that pregnant women who were sitting in the womb should avoid the bride and not be happy with the newlyweds.

She disagrees with these bad habits, but Xiao Yu'er is not stupid enough to use her immature shoulders to resist the torrent of the world.

Therefore, since the third aunt said so, let's believe it, the third aunt just doesn't go.

But I have to mention a few words to my mother when I go to a certain place in the future, and I will inquire about the local customs and taboos. Otherwise, it would be embarrassing to encounter a situation like today.

Xiao Yu'er and Changqi stayed with Chen Jiayu for a while, and then left.

Since my father and mother will come to pick them up tomorrow and go to Qin Mansion as guests, then I don't need to go to the post station to say hello to my father and mother today.

Xiao Yu'er was a little more stable in his heart, so he picked up the brush and wanted to practice two pages of big characters. Not only did she practice by herself, but she also stared at Changqi to practice together, and Changqi felt very offended.

Just ask her why she is an old child? When you are young, you can only be bullied by your sisters, and you can't resist yet! If she was older and she was her sister, she would definitely not be "bullied" like this.

Changqi was passive and slacked off, and when he wrote that he was going to have lunch, he didn't finish a single page. Looking at her words carefully, one by one she is missing arms and legs, and she is as miserable as she can be, which is completely perfunctory.

Xiao Yu'er's chest hurt, and he secretly made a note for Changqi, preparing to sue his father and mother tomorrow.

Changqi, who didn't know that he was going to suffer, washed his hands as soon as he put down the brush, and drooled over the colorful and fragrant food on the table.

She ate a lot, her eyes lit up when she ate, and she still wanted to eat after two bowls of rice. Then, no more, my sister has already asked people to take down all the food.

Changqi couldn't help but sigh when she was lying on the bed; When will she be able to live without restraints? There is no oppression by brothers and sisters, and parents are in control, and those days are very beautiful when you think about them.

Changqi slept for half an hour in the afternoon, and then was pulled up by Xiao Yu'er.

After coming to Minzhou, the sisters' homework stopped, and Xiao Yuer never felt that there was anything wrong. But after the morning's lesson, Xiao Yuer realized that she couldn't continue to waste her studies.

She was going to practice dancing in the afternoon, and by the way, she called her sister to get up and practice. Of course, she can write in large letters, and she can also endorse it. However, compared with the three, Xiao Yuer felt that Changqi would definitely prefer to do some exercise with her.

Changqi's choice did not exceed Xiaoyuer's expectations.

The sisters spent the afternoon in the practice room, and when it was over, Xiao Yu'er sighed with satisfaction, "The days are so full that they are comfortable." ”

Changqi looked at her sister like a lightning strike, and Xiao Yu'er noticed her gaze and looked over, "What, do you have an opinion on my words?" ”

Changqi said against his will, "No." ”

In fact, the face is bitter, and the villain in his heart is also shouting wildly: What kind of life is this, it's so bitter.

At night, when Xiao Yu'er fell asleep, Changqi secretly got up from the bed, put on her clothes neatly, and prepared to go to Ah Xun to complain.

Since the first time he went to find Ah Xun, Changqi went again in the middle. Ah Xun's eyes were full of surprises, which made Chang Qi sincerely happy, so she secretly decided to visit Ah Xun more often in the future.

Now that it's been five days since we last met, it's time to go again.

Changqi was wearing a small pink dress, and her figure swept through the air.

It's also a coincidence, it's foggy tonight. Even if they are ten meters away from each other, they can't necessarily see each other, let alone the figures that fly from the air like sharp arrows.

The dense fog also reduces people's perception, so the middle-aged man who happened to be keeping vigil again tonight did not notice the abnormality this time.

At this time, Xiao Changqi was sitting on the stool in Wu Xun's room in distress, kicking her little feet while complaining with a bitter face, "Sister is so strict, more like a mother than a mother." ”

Wu Xun's eyebrows were amused by these words, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but turn up, and the laughter was about to overflow his lips.

However, the laughter stirred up the noise in his chest, and he only felt an itch rush over him. As a result, the laughter that came to the lips became coughing. And the cough is getting louder and louder, and it gradually becomes heartbreaking.

Although Xiao Changqi had only been in contact with Wu Xun twice, he was accustomed to his coughing posture.

She poured hot tea for Wu Xun and handed it over, and patted him on the back, "You said you, why hasn't your illness improved?" Haven't you been taking medicine, why doesn't it work? ”

Changqi's already bitter little face became even more bitter, "In the past few days, I have seen several doctors in your house." Are they all helpless about your condition? Ah Xun, tell me, what kind of disease do you have, why is it so difficult to treat? ”

Wu Xun didn't have time to respond to her, he seemed to cough up his heart, liver, spleen and lungs. The whole person's cheeks were flushed, and with his skinny cheeks, he looked a little oozing.
