Su Jin hugged her knees and watched Xiao Yan busy in the small room.

Less than half an hour after they met, Xiao Yan first mended the tiles on the roof, then pinched the rag and began to wipe the ash from the beams, and then dragged the bluestone floor in the house with an apron, and filled in the three ant holes in the corner of the wall according to Liu Xiaofen's instructions.

Su Jin looked at the sweat on Xiao Yan's forehead and was distressed to death.

He hadn't even sat down yet.

"Where's the tea?" Liu Xiaofen and the old lady sat in the house and talked about the mountains, and threw the rind melon seed skin on the ground, "We have been chatting for so long and we haven't seen tea, what are you doing?" ”

Xiao Yan hurriedly brought the tea and put it down, but before his arm was withdrawn, Liu Xiaofen pointed with his hand, "I see that the chicken pen is a little loose, you go and build it." ”

Xiao Yan hurriedly turned around to do it, Su Jin pouted, quietly poured a cup of tea and hid it in his sleeve to send it to Xiao Yan.

"Where?" Liu Xiaofen didn't raise her head, "If you want to drink water, drink it here." ”

Su Jin gritted her teeth, "I'll go to the yard to drink..."

"Drink it right here." Liu Xiaofen picked up the oranges, "How do I know who I fed in the yard." ”

Su Jin collapsed, drank the tea in one gulp, and sat on the steps to sulk.

It was the day when the sun was at its highest, and Xiao Yan squatted in the sun like that, weaving around a pile of rattans.

Su Jin sighed, and quietly went over and squatted beside him, "Xiao Yan..."

"What are you doing here?" Xiao Yan was stunned, and immediately raised his arm to block the sun above her head, and pulled her back to the eaves, "Dry there, you are here." ”

"What about you?" Su Jin stretched out his hand to wipe the sweat on his head, "Are you tired?" ”

"Tired," Xiao Yan smiled like a fox, "but there is a lady who wipes her sweat herself, no matter how tired she is, she is comfortable." ”

"you, who's your lady?" Su Jin hurriedly withdrew his hand, "Give some sunshine and it will be brilliant." ”

Xiao Yan smiled, suddenly remembered something, took out a pack of snacks from his arms and stuffed them into her arms, "The snacks I bought before entering the city were all busy and forgotten, you can try them." ”

He touched the top of her head, then turned and crouched on the ground to weave a chicken cage.

Su Jin opened it, pinched those delicate and cute little desserts and put them in his mouth, looked at the young man who was busy not far away, and suddenly smiled.

It seems that even the air has the sweetness of a snack.

As soon as the chicken coop was made, Liu Xiaofen shouted in the house again, "It's time for dinner, right?" ”

"Here we are." Xiao Yan hurriedly responded and ran to the kitchen again.

Su Jin's buttocks quietly moved in the direction of the kitchen, feeling that she was out of Liu Xiaofen's sight, so she hurriedly bent her waist and prepared to rush to the kitchen.

Xiao Yan little butterfly, I'm here!

"Sit!"

As soon as her legs went limp, she immediately fell to the spot.

So after finally finishing cooking, Xiao Yan, who had finished washing the dishes, was finally able to breathe when Liu Xiaofen was about to take a nap.

Before leaving, the old lady looked at Xiao Yan with a smile and nodded.

"He's a good boy."

Xiao Yan immediately saluted her respectfully, "Grandma." ”

The old lady patted Su Jin's little hand and turned her head back to the house.

Seeing that the people in the house were gone, Su Jin hurriedly pulled Xiao Yan to sit down, and gave him a massage with his little hand on his shoulder, "Woo, we Yanyan have worked hard." ”

"My hand hurts," Xiao Yan pressed her for a while, then reached out and pulled her back and hugged her in his arms, "What do you want to eat at night?" ”

Su Jin snorted and laughed, his forehead pressed against him, and his eyes met, "You are like a family cook now." ”

The fragrance of the girl on the tip of her nose lingered, and Xiao Yan remembered the kiss in the kitchen in the morning, and leaned forward unconsciously.

"Huh."

His hand shook, and the bruises on his forehead erupted from this familiar "heh".

Su Jin hurriedly distanced herself from Xiao Yan in a panic, "Mother, don't you want to sleep?" ”

"Can't sleep." Liu Xiaofen walked in with a sewing box and glanced at Xiao Yan, "By the way, I told you that Su Jin was raised as a boy from childhood to adulthood, and you can see it." When you have children in the future, you can't always rely on embroiderers, right? ”

Su Jin sighed in her heart.

Sure enough, Liu Xiaofen said leisurely, "If you really love her, don't let her worry about such a trivial matter, come, I'll teach you some skills, and when you are idle in the future, you will also take care of your family." ”

Su Jin suddenly covered her face in pain.

However, Xiao Yan still looked humble and asked for advice, moved a chair and sat down, and studied seriously.

Liu Xiaofen saw that he did not refuse, her eyes flashed, but she didn't say anything.

After teaching a few times, Xiao Yan operated independently. Liu Xiaofen looked at it, yawned twice, and instructed from time to time.

I don't know how long it took, Su Jin was a little drowsy, and in a daze, she felt that someone picked her up and gently placed her on the couch.

She opened her eyes and saw Xiao Yan smiling softly at her.

"Why are you here?" She subconsciously glanced at Liu Xiaofen and found that she was asleep.

"Jin'er," Xiao Yan lowered her body and kissed her on the forehead, "If you're sleepy, you can sleep for a while." ”

Su Jin stroked his eyebrows and eyes, feeling that Xiao Yan looked a little haggard.

"I'm tired these days, I should have a good rest today." She said, "Why don't you go back to Xuanjing quietly and rest, anyway, it is estimated that we will have to go back tomorrow." ”

Xiao Yan smiled and shook his head, "What if I don't want to leave you for a moment now?" ”

Su Jin's face was a little red, and he was about to speak, but he suddenly felt that Xiao Yan was stuffed into a piece of silk cloth in his hand.

She smiled in confusion.

The white cloth was crookedly embroidered with red silk threads, and it could be seen that the embroiderer was not of high level, extremely unskilled, and the stitches were rough.

However, Su Jin still felt that somewhere in her heart was stuffed.

"It's not a good embroidery, but it's my first work." Xiao Yan smiled, "I'll give it to you." ”

Su Jin said duplicityly, "It's so ugly." ”

Xiao Yan smiled and shook his head.

Su Jin looked at him.

Xiao Yan's eyebrows are like mountains, her eyes are like the sea, but in the vastness she hides the wind and snow that she originally disdained, gentle and cold.

She knew that in this life, it was him.

There is no need to ask if the road ahead is high and the water is far away, she wants to take his hand and go down.

After Liu Xiaofen woke up, she didn't feel sorry for Xiao Yan anymore, but on the grounds of "I learned the rules here today", she waved him to "where did you come from". Xiao Yan nodded respectfully to Liu Xiaofen, and after saying goodbye to Su Jin, he rode away.

Su Jin watched him rush around again to get busy with his career, sighed slightly, and turned around to see Jun Ran standing quietly behind her with a sword in his hand.

"What are you doing standing here?" Su Jin blinked, "Why don't you enter the house?" ”

Jun Ran didn't say a word, just looked at her quietly, until Su Jin was a little scared, he spoke softly.

"You, like him?"

Something suddenly flashed in Su Jin's heart, and she immediately spoke, "Jun Ran has something, I have to tell you, Su Xiaohua is actually..."

"Su Jin," Jun Ran interrupted her, "You just need to tell me, do you have an invitation to him?" ”

"Yes." Su Jin bit her lip, "I like him." ”

When Jun Ran heard this, he immediately lowered his eyes, and his fingers turned slightly white.

"Jun Ran ......" Su Jin hesitated, not knowing how to speak.

"You don't have to say it." Jun Ran suddenly took a breath, as if he had made a lot of determination, "I understand." ”

Su Jin opened his lips, not knowing what he understood.

"Su Jin, remember, if he loses you, I am still here." Jun Ran looked at her deeply.

I will protect you, no matter what your name is, what identity you live in, or who you fall in love with.

I'll be there.

He turned and walked away.

--

Liu Xiaofen's family appeared on the second day of Xiao Yan's return to Xuanjing, according to the recollection of the official who was responsible for handing over the body at the time, Liu Xiaofen, who "returned from playing but suddenly heard bad news", cried and only took out a straw mat, wrapped the "Grandpa Guo", and threw it on the ground casually.

The meaning of the palace is that since Lord Su died during the prayer period, he will subsidize some silver for funeral expenses to express His Majesty's sympathy, and His Majesty is sick and inconvenient to go, so the newly established prince Xiao Nanhao will go to condole with a representative.

Su Jin was really taken aback when she heard the news.

In just two days, Xiao Nanhao couldn't help but get rid of the pain of grounding, and became the crown prince, I have to say that this is another layer of resistance to Xiao Yan's plan to compete for the throne.

However, Su Jin also smelled something unusual from it.

It's not a good thing for Xiao Nanhao to rise too fast, but I'm afraid that the higher he climbs, the worse he falls.

It's just that I don't know, is the person behind this who wants to kill him friend or foe?

Because the corpse had been soaked and the weather was hot, it was already a little decomposed, Liu Xiaofen made a bold decision:

Immediately after dusk, there is no need to stop the spirit overnight.

For those who know the truth, they are just afraid of long nights and dreams, but in the eyes of outsiders, they feel that this matter is extremely inappropriate.

However, people have the final say, and outsiders have no reason or right to ask, so they have to pity each other on the same day.

On this day, a funeral was held, and Liu Xiaofen asked Su Jin to stand at the back in a woman's dress with her face covered, and Su Jin did so.

She understood what Liu Xiaofen meant.

Everything starts here, must end here, and she, the client, must be present no matter what, watch the past life buried in the ground, and then start a new life.

The white prayer flags of the Guogong Mansion fluttered everywhere, and everyone in the Guogong Mansion was acting hard, making a look of extreme sadness, and the officials who came to participate in the condolences for a while also wiped their tears.

"The people in your house are really Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon." Lu Jun spoke beside Su Jin, "I almost believed it." ”

"I said, whoever doesn't play well today won't give a penny at night," Su Jin smiled, "They can't wait for me to be finished now." ”

Lu Jun shook his head, "You, you're really naughty." ”

"By the way, why didn't Ruyi come today?" Su Jin was a little puzzled, "There is still a free meal today." ”

Lu Jun's expression changed slightly, "Ruyi her, she hasn't been doing well lately." ”
