CHAPTER XXXVIII
"How many people are in Yu Feifei's family?" Although the lady made fun of the valley owner, she still took the initiative to ask Yaoguang's family status according to the mood of the valley owner.
When Yaoguang heard his wife's question, his chopsticks paused in mid-air, and the others waited for Yaoguang's answer, waiting with bated breath one by one. The atmosphere of harmony, which had barely been maintained, fell silent in an instant.
I don't know how many seconds have passed, Yaoguang put the chopsticks on the table, raised his head, and a gentle smile was perfectly displayed on his face: "There are more than a dozen people in the family." ”
Such a vague response seemed to be correct, the lady only asked a few people in the family, but did not stop the question exactly at the blood relationship, plus the servants and housekeepers were more than a dozen.
"I don't know if I can have brothers and sisters." Madame continued to ask questions, which seemed to her as if they were talking about home. What she didn't know was that these questions were pressing step by step, breaking through Yaoguang's psychological defense step by step.
The smile on Yaoguang's face was about to be untenable, and she had to maintain an indifferent posture.
"There are eight brothers and sisters in the family." Originally, the emperor's heirs were extremely thin, and in this harem, it was the mother who relied on the son to be expensive, so it was naturally cut off from the root and suppressed it vigorously.
Yaoguang clearly remembered that when the dynasty fell, there were only eight heirs in this harem.
"Brother Yu, how many are you in the family?" Shao Lian held her chin, tilted her head, and asked very curiously.
Mo Xuan didn't speak, and some thoughts flashed through his mind when he heard Yaoguang say that there were eight brothers in his family.
But then he shook his head to himself, thinking that these ideas were unlikely. In his vague impression, there are only eight brothers and sisters......
It was almost now, and as long as the other party said that number, he was very sure of his guess.
"What do you think I'm number one in the house?" Yaoguang threw the question back to Shaolian, she didn't want to lie, and she didn't want to expose too much information.
"Could it be the boss, Brother Yu is so gentle, it looks like the kind of person who can take care of people. On weekdays, he must be very caring for his younger brothers and sisters. Shao Lian replied a little shyly.
The red cloud had already climbed up her face, and the shy girl lowered her eyes, her long eyelashes covering the watery tenderness.
Yaoguang did not answer directly, but smiled and did not say anything.
When the valley owner heard his daughter's words, he couldn't sit still. Although the folk customs in this valley are relatively open, as a girl's family, you still have to know how to be reserved.
In order to remind his daughter, the valley owner began to deliberately clear his throat.
"Ahem."
"Daddy, are you getting attention again, or is your throat really uncomfortable?" Shao Lian's emotions were completely interrupted by her father, and she said with some displeasure.
The valley lord felt that he had no way to continue eating this meal today, and he would be angry sooner or later.
The topic was led to other places, Yaoguang breathed a small sigh of relief, and when she raised her head, she just happened to see Mo Xuan, who was sitting opposite her, staring at him.
In an instant, I was on pins and needles, and I wanted to escape quickly. She was a little tired of the feeling of being spied on.
Originally, she wanted to know more about Yaoguang, but Madame saw that the topic was getting farther and farther away, so she gave up.
Sometimes, I want to understand what a person is not, listen to what the other person says, but carefully observe her words and deeds, her habits, hobbies, and feelings will be shown from it.
The meal was soon over, and it was noon, and the sun was scorching everything on the earth overhead, and the heat was blowing.
Shaolian originally wanted to follow and Yaoguang to leave together, but before he could get up, he was stopped by the valley master, and let her go out to play for a long time today, but it didn't let her continue in this state.
Shaolian has grown up, and there are still many things to teach her, and it is not very long.
"Dad, I'll just go out and play for a while, I promise to come back early." Shaolian shook the valley master's arm coquettishly, usually this action can definitely make the valley master's heart soften.
But it's impossible today, this little girl has been looking for things for him at the dinner table three times and twice, and it is impossible to let her go easily.
"You haven't learned how to manage your bills with me, there's still a lot to learn, and there's no time left to play." Guism is rhetorical.
There is no room for negotiation.
Shao Lian pouted a little aggrieved, the valley master at this time can be described as iron-faced and selfless, no matter what kind of small actions Shao Lian has, it can't make him soft at all.
Shao Lian tentatively used her tone full of sadness to evoke the valley lord, the kindness in her heart. Unfortunately, it didn't work out.
"When you finish your studies, you will come out with us, I still need to stay in this valley for half a month, and I still have time to be together." Yaoguang comforted Shao Lian.
"Okay, then you have to promise me that you will spend the whole day with me, and it will only be the two of us."
"Okay." Yaoguang should go down.
Mo Xuan stared at the girl who was smiling extremely brightly with some jealousy, he had never been assured by Yaoguang.
He even now misses the days before he didn't come to this valley, although the relationship between the two of them was not as close as it is now, but when the two of them stayed together, the atmosphere was extremely harmonious, and there was always something to talk about.
But the old days are gone, this girl is really a bit of an eyesore, but he can't do anything, he can only stand aside and watch.
"I think you're missing a mirror right now."
"Huh?" Mo Xuan was immersed in his own thoughts, and suddenly he heard that standing beside him, this extremely non-existent guy suddenly spoke.
"You look like a resentful woman now, and no one can guess your true identity." Ling Xi did not forget to continue to mend the knife.
"You, please always remember your identity, no matter how high your status is, you are still a slave in essence." Mo Xuan showed a fierce gesture.
Ling Xi recalled that Mo Xuan, who had been at a loss a few days ago, and the hungry wolf who was like a hungry wolf full of strength at this moment, was a world of difference.
He was not annoyed by these words, but smiled heartily.
Mo Xuan didn't, distraught by the guy's sudden neurotic laughter, but continued to stare at the person in front of him with a cold gaze.
Ling Xi stopped making a sound when he smiled without smiling, perhaps it was the easy-going attitude that Mo Xuan had shown in the past few days that made him forget a little, what was the true identity of this person?
He is not just a puppet emperor, but under the tyranny of someone, he still holds his own affairs in his hands, and has the strength to compete with the other party.
He was too presumptuous.
