Qin Huaiyuan heard this, "If you want to come to this huge court, only you have the courage and courage to say this." ”

Xiao Xiao also smiled, "I will only be open-mouthed in front of my father-in-law, and if I were outside, I would not be so bold." The Holy One rules the world with benevolence and filial piety, how can he allow such a thing to happen? ”

Both of them are smart people, and they already know each other without having to say it thoroughly. With Li Qitian's character, even if he has something wrong, he will never let people know, and he always has to think of ways to cover up the past.

Qin Huaiyuan thought for a while and said, "I understand what you mean. But the Tiger Ben Army owes military salaries, and the final fault is not up to you. That's why I admire your ability, you have to fight with soldiers and horses, and you have to make your brothers loyal to you, willing to kill the enemy desperately in front of the battle, and make them respect you in the case of arrears of military salaries, without getting everyone to shout and beat, this is really not an easy task. ”

When he heard this, he couldn't help but laugh: "Father-in-law, in fact, this matter is not difficult, as long as I share weal and woe with the soldiers, charge in front and retreat in the rear, this is enough." ”

Qin Huaiyuan looked at him with eyes full of approval: "Although the truth says so. But how many people can really do it? In fact, the truth of many things is the most obvious, so simple that everyone knows it.

"For example, if you want to read a book, you know that if you want to take the imperial examination, you must first study the scope of the examination questions over the years, and then work hard to read it thoroughly, and at the same time pay attention to the court situation, understand the spirit of the people in power, and figure out your thoughts.

Eighty percent of students understand this truth, but there are only a few who can really leap into the dragon gate, because they can't be self-disciplined and persistent.

"Something like reading that is not life-threatening, ordinary people are still like this, not to mention that you are going into battle to kill the enemy, and you are fighting with your life all the time."

Xiao Xiao couldn't erase what Qin Huaiyuan said for a while, waved his hand and smiled: "Where is it so good as my father-in-law said, it's just bold." ”

"Bold, careful, and kind." Qin Huaiyuan stretched out his arm and patted his son-in-law who was sitting opposite the small table, "You are very good." I will hand over Sister Yi'er to you, I am very relieved. ”

Qin Huaiyuan's words were a great affirmation for Xiao Xiao. Xiao Xiao has no father since he was a child, and the guiding light in his growth has always been Yao Chenggu. Yao Chenggu is indeed very smart, but if his cleverness is only to open a restaurant in the market, it is more than enough, if he uses it in the court, he has limited vision after all.

Now that Zhi Pan'an has become his father-in-law, Xiao Xiao feels that he has a little more confidence in doing things, because he knows that when he is confused and can't pay attention, Qin Huaiyuan will definitely show him the right way.

Especially his complete trust in him. From the beginning of his time in the Great Yan Dynasty, he has always trusted him.

This is already a great praise for him as a son-in-law.

Lunch was still placed in the old lady's main room.

When the family had a dinner, the young master didn't stick to those small sections, only put a screen in the middle, and sat down on both sides.

Qin Yining was next to the second lady of the Sun family, and often listened to the elders telling her to eat more, and she could also hear the men's talk on the other side of the screen.

In front of the rest of the people, he was not as talkative as when he was in front of Qin Huaiyuan, but he was not a cold shelf of the prince, he was just steady. He doesn't talk much, but he can get to the point every time he speaks. attracted the second and third masters to praise him, and Qin Han and Qin Yu also had a new understanding of the owl. I used to think that he was a reckless man, but now it seems that he is very wrong.

On this side of the screen, the second lady took Sun's hand and whispered, "It seems that Sister Yi'er has chosen a good family." Sister-in-law can rest assured now. ”

After listening to Qin Yining's introduction and adding his own observations, Sun couldn't be more satisfied with Xiao Xiao now, nodded and said in a low voice: "I only have such a daughter, and if she can live a good life, I will be at ease." ”

Qin Huining, who was sitting not far from Sun's family, heard Sun's sentence "There is only such a daughter", and her heart was so sour that she almost burst into tears on the spot.

She no longer had hope for Sun's relationship with her. She knows that the family raising her now is no different from raising a kitten and puppy that follows the owner for years and wags its tail to beg for food.

But when she really heard that the Sun family didn't care about her at all, Qin Huining was still sad and wanted to cry.

She sniffed and forced herself not to cry on the good day when Qin Yining returned to the door today, but when she raised her eyes, she was facing Qin Yining's smiling eyes.

Qin Huining's pupils shrank, and she was embarrassed as if she had been slapped a few times by someone, and she looked away in embarrassment.

Qin Yining originally wanted to express kindness. She thought that Qin Huining was also her father's adopted daughter in the end, although the two had an unpleasant quarrel, in the end, the matter had passed. Now that she has her own family and a husband who loves her, there is no need to bite the unpleasantness of the past.

It's just that I didn't expect that her kindness seemed to be misunderstood.

That's it, if she is too close, maybe she will frighten Qin Huining, anyway, she doesn't expect any future contacts, so let's leave it at that.

After eating, Qin Yining accompanied Sun back to the room to talk, and took a short nap in the afternoon, while Xiao Xiao had been discussing state affairs with Qin Huai in the distance.

The old lady pulled Mama Qin in the main room and whispered, "You go and see what the four girls are doing, why don't you come back to talk to me." ”

When Mama Qin heard this, she couldn't help but sigh helplessly. I broke my face with Miss Four at the beginning, but now I suspect that people don't interact to get close, and Miss Four is not faceless, skinless and self-esteem, where will I rush to come?

I thought so in my heart, but I couldn't say that. Mama Qin had no choice but to say: "The fourth lady is not used to leaving the eldest lady's side, and I want to come out of the pavilion, and I also have some considerate words to say to the eldest lady." ”

When the old lady heard this, she naturally thought about some things between husband and wife, and nodded understandingly, although she was still dissatisfied with Qin Yining's estrangement, but at least it was not as obvious as it was.

In the evening, it was getting dark, and if he didn't leave, there would be a curfew, so Qin Yining reluctantly said goodbye to his family and got into the carriage with Xiao Xiao.

Watching the door of the Qin family's mansion getting farther and farther away, it wasn't until he turned the corner that Qin Yining sat up straight and sighed softly.

Xiao Xiao stretched out his arm to wrap his arms around her, let her lean on his shoulder, and asked in a low voice, "Reluctant?" It's okay, anyway, our house is not far away, and you can come back at any time if you want to come back in the future. ”

"Hmm." Qin Yining nodded lightly, and said quietly: "Actually, it's not simply reluctant, but I feel a little stunned in my heart, when I was at home in the past, I always felt that there were many places that were not satisfactory, and I thought that maybe it would be good to leave those troublemakers when I left the cabinet in the future." But now that I have a new life, I will still miss those days of chickens and dogs. It's not that I miss being made around, but I miss that time. ”

"I can understand what you're saying." Xiao Xiao sighed lightly and kissed the top of her hair, "Don't worry, anyone will feel this way, memories and nostalgia are not bad things, but life still has to go on." The days to come will be better, and there will be more things to keep in mind. ”

The big hand rubbed on her back, and finally the hand grasped her slender waist and carried it into his arms: "In the future, when we have children, you will be busier." ”

Qin Yining was stunned when he heard this, and his face turned red.

Yes, she didn't think much about it, and now she realized that they were married and would have children. They were so affectionate, and Rock Candy showed her again, saying that although she was weak, it would not affect her fertility. If it goes on like this, maybe she will have a child soon.

Thinking like this, Qin Yining blushed and was uneasy, but there were still some expectations in his heart.

He lowered his head and gently bit her earlobe.

Qin Yining's body trembled when he was excited, and he hurriedly retreated a little, covering his ears and glaring at him with a red face, "What are you doing." ”

Xiao Xiao was itched by her pink and blushing appearance, and stretched out his long arm to hold the person in his arms, urging the people outside: "Hurry up." Get home before curfew, don't delay. "The words are decent, but the movements in the hands are very improper.

Qin Yining's face was red by him, and when he returned home, he rushed back to the room first, not daring to look up at the faces of the servants and maids around him.

But he was leisurely and complacent, and he looked like he was completely fine, and he also followed back to the room to have a deeper communication that could not be carried out on the carriage.

Sleepless nights.

When Qin Yining got up the next day, he only felt sore, without any strength, and he didn't want to get up because of the pain in his back. The long lotus root arm rubbed beside him, only to find that the outside of the stepping bed was empty.

She opened her eyes and saw the bright light of the sky through the red veil.

"What time is it?"

Hearing her question, Jiyun, who was guarding outside, came in and said with a smile: "The princess has woken up, it's time now, and the prince has already gone to the court, but the prince doesn't allow the slaves and maids to disturb the princess's rest." ”

Qin Yining Xiafei had her cheeks and put on yesterday's middle clothes first, and then got up to change her clothes and wash.

When everything was sorted out, Bingtang brought the ginseng chicken soup simmered in the small kitchen, and said with a smile: "The prince instructed you to make up for it." He squeezed his eyes at her.

Qin Yining glared at her, and drank the soup quietly first.

At this moment, Xianyun's voice came from outside: "Princess, Mr. Xie and Mr. Xu ask to meet." There is something important to come back to. ”

Qin Yining was stunned when he heard this, and the ease and comfort on his face disappeared without a trace. They are all the most trusted people around them, and they must have something important when they come suddenly.

"Please."

Qin Yining wiped his mouth and hurried to the main hall.

Xie Yue and Xu Weizhi saw Qin Yining, saluted first, did not delay time, and directly explained their intentions.

"Princess, I just followed the tiger next to the prince to arrange for a brother to come back and spread the word, saying that the old capital of Southern Dayan Dilong has turned over, and the saint plans to send the prince to relieve the disaster."
