The twilight was bleak, and the door of the house was closed early.

The jackdaw cowered on the branch, frozen, motionless.

It is difficult for He Ziyun to come out for a walk, her month is old, and she can't stand it when she always sits still. It's more comfortable to move for a while and then have dinner than not to move.

"Aunt He, Madame, please come over." Mother Guo didn't know when she came over, like a dead tree stump in the twilight, He Ziyun was particularly afraid of her, and now without the protection of Zhang and Wei Zongyong, He Ziyun had long lost her previous arrogance, so she had to obediently follow Mother Guo to Bao's room.

Compared with the dim and cold outside, the warmth in Bao's room is lingering, the aroma is thick, the two large smoke baskets are burning fine silver bone charcoal, and the Boshan furnace is burning patchouli incense.

Bao sat upright on the Luohan couch, holding a gilt hand stove in his arms.

There were more than two dozen large candles in the room, shining as if it were day.

The silk armor on Bao's body shone like gilt light under the reflection of the candle flame.

It's a pity that that face is a little old after all, and He Ziyun saw it in his eyes, and a sense of superiority arose in his heart.

But it was only a flash, even if Bao's appearance was a little more vicissitudes, He Ziyun didn't dare to show any disrespect to her in person. Because now the lives of her mother and son are pinched in her hands.

"I wonder what Madame told me to do?" He Ziyun still said a blessing with a big belly.

"It's nothing, it's boring to eat alone, so I asked you to come and accompany me." Bao said lightly.

Of course He Ziyun didn't believe it, but she couldn't say anything, so she could only be careful secretly.

The mother-in-law, who was in charge of serving the meal for a while, led the maids to bring up the dinner, and then withdrew after setting it up.

Bao only asked Guo's mother to stay and serve alone, and drove out along with He Ziyun's maids.

He Ziyun felt bad when he saw this posture, and the chopsticks in his hand were a little unable to hold it.

Bao looked at her calmly, and suddenly smiled and asked, "Aunt He, what are you afraid of?" ”

He Ziyun raised his eyes and glanced at Bao Shi and did not speak.

"Do you think I've poisoned this meal to poison you and the child in your belly?"

Bao said a little lazily: "You also underestimate me." ”

"What did Madame call me for? It's not just about eating, is it? He Ziyun didn't want to be too passive, she was originally the weak party.

"I called you here because my lord wrote a letter a few days ago and sent it back to you, and I want to show it to you." Bao said slowly.

"Thank you so much, ma'am." He Ziyun really wanted to know if Wei Zongyong mentioned himself in the letter.

She didn't dare to write a letter to Wei Zongyong, for fear of annoying the Bao family. What's more, although Bao had a holiday with her, he didn't do anything to her these days.

Such a rare peace, He Ziyun didn't want his side to break it first.

Otherwise, with Bao's character, he will definitely lose more than he gains.

"Let's eat first, and we'll see when we're done." Bao said.

He Ziyun had no choice but to lean and sip rice porridge with his head down.

She wasn't worried about Bao poisoning herself, because Bao wasn't stupid enough to do that.

After dinner, Bao asked Guo's mother to show He Ziyun the letter that Wei Zongyong sent back a few days ago.

He Ziyun recognized Wei Zongyong's handwriting, saw that he was mentioned above, and warned Bao not to harm his own thoughts.

He Ziyun couldn't help but burst into tears when he read this, it seemed that the old man still hurt himself.

He Ziyun finished reading the letter, and while wiping away tears, he folded the letter and handed it over.

Who would have thought that after Bao took the letter, he would put the letter directly on the candle flame and ignite it.

He Ziyun wanted to grab it, but he was forced to retreat by Bao's eyes halfway through his hand.

"Aunt He, do you think this letter is useful to me?" Bao asked He Ziyun with a slight smile.

He Ziyun only felt the cold sweat on her forehead trickling down.

First, the Bao family is not afraid of Wei Zongyong, and second, Wei Zongyong is thousands of miles away, even if he wants to, he can't manage it.

"What does the lady mean by asking me to read this letter?" He Ziyun asked in a trembling voice, "Are you just going to embarrass me?" ”

"Whatever you think, I just want you to know that there is no one in this mansion to protect you except me." Bao said.

"Protect me?" He Ziyun was like hearing a big joke, how could the Bao family protect her?

Aside from anything else, the fact that Wei Yimi attacked him and was driven out of the house is enough for the Bao family to hold a grudge against himself in the next life.

Although He Ziyun is young, she is not simple, so she doesn't believe Bao's words.

"If you just care about those personal grievances, it is impossible to keep you until now." Bao snorted coldly: "I called you here today to make a deal with you. ”

"What deal?" He Ziyun was very interested when he heard these two words, it is impossible for a person like Bao to be affectionate, and the transaction is more reliable.

"You should have also seen the situation where the old lady and the Zhang family have been in peace for decades." Bao said calmly: "If it weren't for the Zhang family sitting down on the evil thing, it wouldn't have died well." ”

"What do you mean, ma'am?" He Ziyun seemed to understand something, but he didn't dare to confirm it yet.

"I mean we don't have to emulate this relationship? My son is gone, but someone has to inherit this family business, and the man in your belly says that most of them are a male fetus, in this case, why don't we benefit each other? Do you have to kill you? Bao analyzed: "At that time, I will also ask you for an identity of the command, isn't it very good?" ”

Bao's proposal was very tempting, and He Ziyun was not tempted, but she was still a little uneasy, and asked, "What Madame said is true?" Not kidding me? ”

"What? You don't believe it? The Bao family was calm and relaxed: "Aunt He, I want to ask you, do you have any other choice?" ”

"This ......," He Ziyun said.

There are still several months before Wei Zongyong returns, and if she doesn't agree, then it will be equivalent to standing on the opposite side of the Bao family.

He Ziyun's ambition is clear, and he will never leave hidden dangers, and he is bound to get rid of her.

And He Ziyun has no doubt that the Bao family has many ways to make his death unaware.

"Madame, I promise you." He Ziyun made up his mind.

"Are you sincere?" Bao asked her.

"Of course!" He Ziyun's expression was resolute.

"In this way, the two of us will form an alliance, and since the alliance is formed, you must give me a letter of vote, otherwise I won't believe you." Bao Shi stared at He Ziyun Dao.

"What kind of vote?" He Ziyun was a little stunned.

"Young Master Hong'an has contracted the wind and cold these days," Bao said with a smile: "You often go to the old lady's place, and find an opportunity to sprinkle this bag of things in the porridge he eats, so that no one can see it." ”
