After Zhao pondered for a moment, he looked up at Xie Xiaoyu again before he smiled: "I understand what Yu'er means, don't worry, I won't let them bully Nan'er." ”

Xie Xiaoyu has been with people for so long today, and has watched Zhao Nan'er play for so long, saying so many words, and having some other thoughts, because he was already tired, so he naturally didn't notice Zhao's last look, but he breathed a sigh of relief, got up and saluted and was about to leave.

Zhao hurriedly grabbed her and said with a smile: "What are you running back and forth?" If you get sick from the cold, just rest here with me. ”

Xie Xiaoyu shook her head, and Bi Tao was busy laughing beside her: "Madam, Miss Cousin is still over there." ”

Zhao was helpless, so he had to order someone to prepare a soft sedan chair to carry her back, and said, "Don't be so willful in the future." ”

Xie Xiaoyu nodded, tossing people in the middle of the night, once is enough, where can it always be like this?

After she left, Zhao did not rest, but leaned on the bed to think about things, looking solemn.

Caixia, who was on duty at night, saw it and came over and said, "Madam, what's wrong?" It's not too early, so let's take a break. ”

Zhao looked at her, and thought for a moment before asking, "You usually get close to the people in the courtyard of the jade girl?" ”

Caixia was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly lowered her head and said: "Yes, the slaves and maids are about the same age, so they naturally get along kindly." ”

Besides, the population of the Hou Mansion is so simple, and there is usually not so much open and secret fighting, so it is naturally good.

"Then have you heard them talk about it, what happened to the Ying family?"

"No," Caixia hurriedly shook her head, "never." ”

Her heart was beating hard.

How dare they talk about the eldest lady behind their backs? I didn't dare to say it in front of my wife.

And some things are just seen, and I don't even dare to talk about them!

"Didn't you say anything about those two peaches?"

"No...... Madame, do you want to know something? Or the slave maid to inquire? Caixia asked cautiously.

Zhao finally shook his head and said, "That's it, let's talk about it when Hou Ye comes back." ”

Xie Xiaoyu definitely knows something, maybe it's hard to say, maybe it can't be said, but it must be a big deal.

But her daughter has very little to say, if she refuses to tell the truth, even the Hou Ye can't pry her mouth open.

Ying Jia, what can you do to make Xie Xiaoyu notice?

There is also the matter of the Feng family, Xie Xiaoyu's question is also very reasonable, what if someone is really behind it?

She said that since the rain in southern Xinjiang, everything has been weird.

Fortunately, Hou Ye is coming back soon.

Caixia saw that Zhao didn't speak, just lay down again, hurriedly put down the bed tent for her, turned off the lights and retreated, glanced back at the bed tent, and retreated thoughtfully.

……

Now in this capital, the Zhao family is not the only one waiting for Xie Chunshan to return to Beijing.

Looking forward to the 27th day of the lunar month, the army returning to Beijing has already reached the border of Gyeonggi, and it will be able to return to Beijing on the 29th.

It is close to the New Year, if it is left behind, it must be a festive thing, but one is that Xie Chunshan went south this time for disaster relief, and the other is because of the matter of the four princes, the capital is really not very festive.

The emperor is angry at the unfilial piety, although he is currently only examining the people around the drunken red mansion and the four princes, and he has not arrested people for the time being, but if the hundred officials' families are too festive at this time, they still look like the angry emperor.

Especially the family of the father and the son, it is better to keep a low profile recently.

However, only the interior of the Huaiyang Marquis Mansion for the female dependents was really happy because of the Hou Ye's return to Beijing, and even the faces of the servants were full of happy smiles.

The Zhao family is naturally the one who pleases the most.

After a few months of separation from her husband, the military home, parting is common, but it is precisely because it is often that I miss it even more.

Early in the morning of the 29th, Xie Xiaoyu and Zhao Nan'er got up early, changed into beautiful clothes of new colors, and went to the city gate together to greet Xie Chunshan.

When Zhao heard this, while arranging a carriage for them, he smiled and said: "When you come back at this time, you want to enter the palace to face the saint, I don't know how long it will be, you two just watch it, and you can't speak, why bother?" ”

Zhao Nan'er grinned: "Then it's good to see your uncle in advance, right?" Sister. ”

Xie Xiaoyu nodded, and her heart was very peaceful.

As long as she thinks that her father is coming back, she feels that many things that have been around her recently will be resolved.

Zhao's mind is also heavy now, but he was still amused by Zhao Nan'er, Weng pulled her beside him and said, "Don't like to say these things at this time, remember to listen to your sister when you go out, be quiet." ”

"Oh." Zhao Nan'er grinned, took Xie Xiaoyu's arm, and got into the carriage together, and Bi Tao and Hua'er also got into the car with their own young lady's things.

The Zhao family measured the situation in Beijing today, so naturally they couldn't make a big splash, so they only arranged two family members to follow.

Of course she wasn't worried, Xie Xiaoyu used to bring only two peaches to the street, but if the safest place today is on the streets of the capital.

At least four of the soldiers at the entrance of the yamen were on the street, and there was absolutely no accident.

……

When she left the mansion, Zhao Nan'er was quiet for a moment, then she couldn't bear it anymore and asked Xie Xiaoyu:

"Is my sister cold? If it's not cold, why not roll up the curtains? ”

Xie Xiaoyu held the stove and smiled in agreement.

Zhao Nan'er smiled happily, Bi Tao had already moved over and rolled up the curtain.

Although Zhao Nan'er knew that there were major events in the imperial court now, she didn't understand them, so she only leaned on the window of the car, looking out happily, and occasionally there were soldiers patrolling by, and she saw that it was the carriage of the Huaiyang Marquis Mansion, and she saw that it was a few little girls, she didn't pay much attention to it, but she was quite respectful.

In the days of the end of the year, even if the people in the temple are panicked, but after arriving in the outer city, they can still feel the excitement, especially those children who don't know anything, as well as those who set off firecrackers, all of them are happy and joking, which is completely the atmosphere of the New Year.

Zhao Nan'er looked happy, and occasionally stopped to buy some street snacks, Xie Xiaoyu let her go, so that it didn't take long to pile up half a car of food.

"Miss Cousin bought so much, I can't eat it." Bi Tao smiled, "Rabbits don't eat this." ”

"Naturally, I ate it myself," Zhao Nan'er stuffed a mouthful of hemp balls and muttered, "My sister eats it too." ”

Xie Xiaoyu just shook his head, and suddenly felt a sensation in his right eye.

Zhao Nan'er on the opposite side clearly saw that the pupil of Xie Xiaoyu's right eye suddenly stretched rapidly, becoming a deep pure black.

This was the first time she saw this scene, and she couldn't help but swallow the whole ball in fright, almost choking herself.

"Sister, your eyes—"

Before she could finish speaking, Xie Xiaoyu slammed her to the ground.

Three "whoosh" sounds pierced the air, followed by the screams of the two family members.

And the third short arrow, which entered through the window, flew out of the window on the other side, and nailed it to the wall of the merchant opposite.

Something happened!
