Chapter 8: Butterflies Fly
At lunchtime, Mama Li saw Xiao Jingqi standing there stupidly, and asked him curiously, "What's wrong with big brother?" Why don't you skip eating? ”
Xiao Jingqi didn't move, just frowned and muttered, "Brother, brother!" ”
"Oh, it turns out that the eldest brother is asking why the elder brother didn't come to dinner?"
Mama Li is simply Xiao Jingqi's interpretation flower, as long as Xiao Jingqi makes a move, she is always the first to know what this child wants to express.
Hearing Mama Li mention Xiao Jingxuan, Zhao Qingxiang raised her eyebrows: "Regardless of him, let's eat first!" ”
Mama Li was kind-hearted, promised in her mouth, and went to call Xiao Jingxuan as soon as she turned around.
But no matter how she coaxed at the door of the room, Xiao Jingxuan just wouldn't open the door.
Mama Li was very anxious, but saw that Zhao Qingxiang was calm: "It's okay, don't get used to him!" ”
In the afternoon, the good day suddenly changed its face, and after a while, it rained heavily.
Due to the lack of care, there was soon stagnant water in the Xiyuan.
Zhao Qingxiang took a few maids and grandmothers, rolled up their sleeve robes and dredged the drainage ditch in Xiyuan to prevent the stagnant water from flooding the yard.
After the clean-up was completed, several maids and grandmothers couldn't help but look at Zhao Qingxiang again: I didn't expect the master's illness to be very sick! Even the menial work of cleaning the gutter can be done! And it's particularly professional.
Fortunately, the glazed tiles on the roof are sturdy, and there is no rain leakage in the house.
Otherwise, no matter how powerful his master is, he can't go up to the roof to repair the tiles, right?
Everyone felt a little fortunate in their hearts.
After a busy time, and it coincided with the cloudy and tidal weather, the old problem of the two grandmothers' backache and back pain was committed, and they were restless there.
Zhao Qingxiang was born in a doctor's family, although his medical skills are not good, he still knows some ways to relieve pain.
Seeing this, they taught Begonia a set of fingering techniques and asked them to pinch the ...... for the two grandmothers.
Mama Li was puzzled: "Miss, when did you learn to heal?" ”
Zhao Qingxiang said perfunctorily: "No, I just saw it in an idle book, and now that I think about it, let them try it." ”
"Madame is really powerful, the old body is much more comfortable after such a kneading." Mama Sun smiled knowingly.
"It's good that Mama is comfortable." Although Zhao Qingxiang doesn't like Grandma Sun, he won't show it on his face.
Besides, it's in a cage, and laughter is better than sighing.
"I'll just say that our young lady is the most capable." The wrinkles on Mama Li's face stretched.
Mama Sun didn't roll her eyes this time, just smiled.
"The two grandmothers have to take care of their health, and the two children still expect the two grandmothers to take care of them! There are also begonias and begonias, you must also take care of yourself. There are many people to be lively, and I don't want the soul of the Xiyuan to be cold and deserted. ”
"Yes!" The two grandmothers and Begonia happily agreed.
The heat in the courtyard had been washed away by the rain, but there was a smell of moldy earth filling the air in the courtyard.
Xiao Jingxuan was attracted by the laughter in the courtyard, and finally opened the door.
Zhao Qingxiang secretly stuffed Xiao Jingqi with two eggs: "Go and give it to my brother, remember to call my brother!" ”
The eggs were boiled at noon, and due to limited supply, only two were boiled.
Xiao Jingqi pinched the egg, and saliva flowed down again. He looked at the eggs, then at his brother, and after some inner struggle, he finally took a step away.
Ran to his younger brother in a few steps and stretched out his hands: "Brother! To give! ”
Mama Li was busy correcting him in the back: "It's my brother!" Can't be called brother! ”
Xiao Jingqi turned his head and stared blankly at Mama Li for a while, and then turned his head: "Brother eat!" ”
Xiao Jingxuan knocked down the egg in his hand: "The goose (I) don't eat it!" ”
Xiao Jingqi swallowed his saliva, picked up the egg and stretched it out to his younger brother again: "Brother, hungry!" Eat! His little face was flushed, and tears were almost pouring out.
Mama Li couldn't help but open her mouth: "Look at how good your brother is, he is reluctant to eat it himself, he wants to leave it for you to eat, don't you want it?" Hurry up with my brother, right? ”
Xiao Jingxuan finally hesitantly took an egg.
Xiao Jingqi hurriedly stuffed the other one into his hand, and he stood next to him, staring at the egg without blinking and drooling.
Seeing this, Xiao Jingxuan hurriedly handed Mama Li an egg: "Uncle (Mama), have you peeled the shell for Uh-uh (brother)?" ”
"Okay, that's a good boy!" Mama Li was very satisfied with Xiao Jingxuan's sensibility, and was busy praising him.
Seeing that Xiao Jingxuan no longer rejected his stupid brother, Zhao Qingxiang was also very happy.
In the afternoon, for the first time, he hugged the two children in his arms and told them the story of his brother and brother.
Xiao Jingxuan listened to the world in the story and asked his mother: I like the story so much! Mother, when will we get to the story?
"Yes, as long as Xuan'er is obedient, she will definitely be!" Zhao Qingxiang looked into the distance: If you want Xiao Jingxuan to become a talent, you must send him out of this cage!
However, it worked to let him be recognized by the emperor again and restore the status of the prince. But the human nature in this palace is indifferent and cold, and it is extremely cruel, he is a child without the support of the mother, and it may not be easy for him to grow up alive, let alone protect his brother.
The only way to do this is to send him out of the palace and let him grow up freely outside the palace!
On this morning, Wu Gonggong, the steward in charge of this part of the cold palace, routinely sent things over.
Xiao Jingxuan watched the heavy tung oil big iron door open and close, and his heart boiled again.
He pestered Zhao Qingxiang vigorously, wanting to go outside to play.
Mama Li came over to scare him: "There is a monster outside that specializes in catching children, and if you go out, you will be eaten by it." ”
"You are all over (liaring) people! If there is a defeated (strange) thing, why don't you eat Wu Bangbang (father-in-law)? ”
"Gonggong Wu is an adult, monsters don't eat adults!"
Xiao Jingxuan frowned and thought for a while, then asked, "Then why don't you (you) go (out)?" ”
Zhao Qingxiang walked over: "It was your bad father who locked us up and didn't let us out." ”
"Miss," Mama Li changed color in a hurry, and she couldn't wait to step forward and cover Zhao Qingxiang's mouth: "Why do you dare to say anything?" ”
Xiao Jingxuan disagreed: "Why does my father want to lock up the geese (me) for a living?" ”
"Because he's a bad guy and doesn't like us." Zhao Qingxiang hugged Xiao Jingxuan in his arms: "So you have to grow up quickly." ”
"Is it true that when the goose (me) grows up, my father will like the goose (me)?"
Zhao Qingxiang sneered, in order not to spoil the child's fun, and also to plant less hatred in the child's heart. She squatted down and looked into the child's eyes, and said slowly: "My Xuan'er has to grow up quickly, only when we grow up and learn a skill, no one can lock us up." ”
"Hmm!" Xiao Jingxuan seems to understand: "Yang (mother) dear, the goose (me) will definitely be abolished (will) in the future (recognize) the true study of the book (collar)!" ”
He lay on the big iron gate of paulownia lacquer, looking out hard through the crack, although he could not see anything, but he did not move his steps for a long time.
Zhao Qingxiang had already instructed that in the future, the word father and emperor would be replaced by father, as for the reason, she didn't say it, and she didn't need to explain it to them, as long as they did it.
A colorful butterfly flew in and circled around the yard.
Xiao Jingxuan chased the butterfly and was amazed:
"What's that?"
"Won't the monster eat it?"
"Mother, if only I were a butterfly, I could go wherever I wanted!"
