When Wei Ziqian sent Jiu'er home, smoke had already risen at the head and end of the village. The setting sun leaned lazily on the edge of the distant mountain, spreading the shy haze of the sky at random.

After the Huang family came back from the other courtyard, he frowned sometimes and sometimes worried, looking preoccupied. Seeing that Gorou sent Jiu'er home with a bruised face at this hour, he didn't say much nagging and greetings, but only placed his daughter in the room to play by herself, so he silently washed his hands and made soup.

When the simple meal was placed on the wooden table, there was a creak of the ugly wooden door opening and closing outside the courtyard, Lu Jiu'er sat on the wooden bed and looked out of the hall, only to see a thin figure stepping into the door with the light on his back. And Huang greeted him happily.

"How did you get back!" She smiled and took the things he was carrying, turned her head and called to the inner room, "Nan'er, your father, he's back—"

Dad...... Hers, father?

Lu Jiu'er tilted her head unblinking, looking at the man who strode in. He also looked down at her in surprise, and couldn't help but turn his head and ask Huang, "Why are you still so young?" ”

Huang pursed his lips and smiled. "Silly you, it's not only ten months old."

Lu Yonghong's dusty face was complicated, and he stretched out his hand to touch the child, but he shrank back halfway, and said with emotion: "It's been almost half a year since I left. She...... Can you walk? ”

"It didn't take long to learn to climb. But recently, she has been learning to walk by touching things by herself, and it is estimated that she will be able to do so in a few months. Huang picked up his daughter with satisfaction, "Da Hong, you hug her?" ”

Lu Yonghong took half a step back. "I traveled for a few days, and I could shake off a few taels of dust at any time. Let's eat first. ”

In the evening, when the sky darkened, the house was lit in advance, and the walls were brightly illuminated. Lu Yonghong habitually hurriedly picked up a few mouthfuls of food, and Huang sandwiched the dried fish into his bowl and persuaded him: "Eat slowly." So he put down the spoon and changed the spoon, and patiently fed the rice cereal in the crook of his arm.

"She's quitting?" Lu Yonghong seemed to ask casually, but without waiting for her to answer, he said, "I am in another courtyard today, how did you go back to the manager?" ”

Huang wanted to mention this matter, but when he saw him start, he couldn't help but ask: "Da Hong, is the mansion in the city looking for a nurse?" Although the manager didn't say it clearly in front of everyone, he probably had such a meaning in his words. Before leaving, the man of the Cao family hurried over and borrowed a step to talk to the manager, as if he had handed something over...... Dahong, you say, should we also send some silver to the top......

"Enough, don't mess around." Lu Yonghong frowned.

"I ...... How did I mess up? Huang was stunned and slightly annoyed, "It's you, why didn't you send the news back first, if you go to the point early, you will have a greater certainty." ”

"What do women know?" Lu Yonghong became impatient, and his voice couldn't help but be louder.

"Why don't I understand?" Huang threw the spoon on the table, "When you are not at home, I am alone!" Housework, farm work, and Gu looked at Jiu'er, who was busy like a spinning top every day, but the money in his hand still didn't add anything! Now it's okay, the young master and young lady in the main house want to find a nurse to raise, not to mention how much higher the monthly receipt is than now, as long as you can lean on the side of the master, you can get ten times better than now! ”

Lu Yonghong was annoyed when he heard this, and slammed the dishes and chopsticks on the table, making the boss's sound and scaring Jiu'er in his arms. He inadvertently caught a glimpse of Nan'er staring at himself stunned with black eyes, and the restlessness in his chest disappeared a lot.

Lu Yonghong sighed, stretched out his hand to pick up Jiu'er, and personally spooned the rice cereal to feed her.

Huang was also knocked in his heart just now, and when he saw this in a blink of an eye, he also lowered his voice aggrievedly: "I just think that if we can go to the main house to do things, our family will be able to be together, and we won't see each other a few times in a year...... Isn't that also wrong? ”

"The personnel in the main house are very complicated, and I can't explain a sentence or two. But you only need to remember that when you wait in front of your master, you will bow your head more than you will look up, and you will not be as comfortable as working in another village. Jiu'er's face was stained with rice paste, and Lu Yonghong stretched out his rough fingers and carefully wiped it off.

Huang lowered his eyebrows and said vaguely: "As long as there is more money, it is not comfortable and worth it." ”

Lu Yonghong became annoyed again when he heard this. "You don't care who lives in the house, what kind of twists and turns are in your stomach, you fight to the death for some rights, and you can't count the ten fingers that died and were kicked out in the middle of the year!"

"But ......"

"If you don't understand, I'll tell you directly!" Lu Yonghong deliberately suppressed his annoyance, "What do you think the nurse is good at work?" The seventh young master is already three years old, why did he suddenly say that he wanted to change the nurse, where did the predecessor go, why did he leave, and how many people can tell why? No! Even if someone really knows, there is something to say!

"Think about it again, if you really want to take care of the Seventh Young Master, is the Lord willing to let you take Nan'er with you at the same time? So what does she do? You want to take care of the children for the master's family, and leave your own family behind? ”

Huang hesitated. "Then, you can send my mother's ......"

"Nan'er is so small, you are really ruthless to leave her?"

Huang opened his mouth, but finally couldn't speak, so he had to bury his head in the food sullenly.

Lu Yonghong was reluctant to say more, but when he saw her like this, he eased his face and said lightly: "What you just said, you will rot in your heart, if you listen to other people's mention, it is best to avoid it, if you can't, don't talk to it." ”

“…… Well. ”

"Even if you are alone with the Wei family, you can listen more, and if you can not speak, don't squeak."

“…… Well. ”

I don't know if it's because of the night, but the room is slowly getting colder. Lu Jiu'er quietly looked at her mother's expression, and looked at the father who met for the first time, her eyes wandered and outlined the slightly frosty thick skin on his face, and the eyebrows and eyes that were more honest than Sven, while obediently swallowing all his feeding into his stomach, while portraying his appearance bit by bit in his heart.

"You ......" Huang Shi paused his eyes, looked up at him, and hesitated, "You are working in the main house, aren't you...... Not having a lot of fun?

"There's nothing unpleasant about work." Lu Yonghong glanced at her, picked up his chopsticks and picked up the chopsticks for her, "No matter how dark and miserable the house is, as long as it doesn't matter, you have the right to watch the show." I usually pretend to be deaf and dumb, I don't get involved with fire and water, and it's best to be able to live a plain life. ”

When Huang heard this, he looked at him silently, and then lowered his head to pick up the rice, thinking between his eyebrows.
