"Isn't Miss Liangqiu Min'er's good sister? Why don't you protect her? Yu Wenhe asked rhetorically.

saw Liang Qiu Yayin shrug his eyebrows and said, "Good sisters can't be by her side all the time. Besides, Min'er is the wife of the king, isn't it the husband's natural obligation to protect his wife? I don't mind if I do it for you, will? ”

Yu Wenhe: "I don't want to. ”

Liang Qiu Yayin smiled but did not speak.

The carriage left the palace and went straight to the Xiao Mansion.

The green coat knocked on the door for a long time before an old butler answered the door.

The old housekeeper looked at the green-clothed eyes, "I don't know if the little brother is ......"

"Old housekeeper, it's my master who wants to see Lord Xiao." Yinlin walked over from behind.

“…… It's Aunt Yinlin...... "Mother." The old butler was stunned for a moment, and then recognized Yinlin.

Yinlin smiled and motioned to Xiao Ruyue beside him, "There is a lot of inconvenience at the gate, and it is not a place to speak." ”

The old housekeeper immediately comprehended and hurriedly invited Xiao Ruyue and his party into the house.

Xiao Ruyue and the others entered the main hall, and the old housekeeper hurriedly instructed the maid to cook tea.

"Wait a moment, and the old slave will go and ask the master to come out."

Xiao Ruyue smiled silently.

Xiao's Mansion is her home, but she was able to come back after such a long absence.

The furnishings in my memory have not changed at all, but after so many years, the vicissitudes of life have become much older. My brother and sister-in-law are gone, my parents are gone, only my grandmother and Jing Yu are left, and this huge Xiao Mansion is really deserted.

Under the touching scene, Xiao Ruyue's eyes were slightly red, and the green clothes were close to her, and she glanced at her puzzledly, Xiao Ruyue made a movement of rubbing her eyes to cover up the past.

The old housekeeper quickly went and returned, and Old Madam Xiao and Xiao Jingyu also came out together. There are only eight people in the house up and down with ripples, and they all kneel and kowtow-

"Niangniang is here, Weichen's family has never been far away, and the crime deserves death!"

Xiao's mansion is not as good as in the past, only one cook is left in the house to be responsible for cooking, an old mother and two maids are taking care of the old lady's food and clothing, and there is an old housekeeper to take care of the inside and outside.

The rest is Mrs. Xiao, Xiao Jingyu still has ripples.

The once great Xiao Mansion and the Xiao family have now fallen to this, and I have to say that it is to make people happy.

"Excuse me."

Xiao Ruyue quickly hid the sadness in her eyes and said calmly.

But I still can't help but want to lean into my grandmother.

In the end, she controlled her hands and clenched her fists, almost letting her nails dig into the flesh.

Xiao Jingyu helped Mrs. Xiao to get up, and looked at Xiao Ruyue puzzled, "I don't know what Niangniang is here to order?" ”

Obviously, she didn't expect the queen to dress up as a man again, and she also paid a private visit to Xiao's mansion.

"Lord Xiao, this palace is out of the palace this time, first, to visit Old Madam Xiao, and secondly, to see if Ripples are in trouble in Xiao's Mansion. Not for the sake of state affairs. Xiao Ruyue looked at the ripples meaningfully.

Ripple's cheeks were stained crimson, and his face was full of shame.

Xiao Jingyu was so embarrassed that he didn't know what to say.

"Lord Xiao's body is not completely well, so he still has to take this opportunity to rest. In a few days, he will open a department to take a scholar, and Lord Xiao must have a good body in order to serve the country and contribute to the king. Xiao Ruyue naturally changed the topic.

Xiao Jingyu nodded again and again.

Considering that Xiao Jingyu was seriously ill, most of the official documents from the Ministry of Rites were sent to Xiao's Mansion in the past few days, although he also went to the court early, but most of them came back after the dispersal of the dynasty and would not stay long.

Of course, this is also to hide people's eyes.

Jing Yu will be a pillar of talent, and now it will be good for him to follow Yuwen He to hone more.

Thinking of this, Xiao Ruyue glanced at Xiao Jingyu again.

Xiao Jingyu felt a little strange feeling in his heart when he saw her eyes, but he couldn't tell what it was.

Xiao Ruyue took Old Madam Xiao's hand and said, "Old Madam, this main hall is very restrained, can you take the palace to the backyard to talk." ”

"Naturally, the Xiao Mansion is honored." The queen mother in front of her made Mrs. Xiao feel very cordial, and the old lady smiled from ear to ear.

Xiao Ruyue went to the backyard with Old Madam Xiao, and Yinlin, Green Yi and Ripple also followed.

The rest of the three men of different ages and identities, Shen Liang, Xiao Jingyu and the old housekeeper, looked at each other, but finally smiled.

The backyard is the same as the appearance in Xiao Ruyue's memory, but it is much less angry.

In the past, there were many people in the house, but now there are fewer people, and the mansion is much more deserted, and there are not enough people, so there will be more weeds.

Seeing Xiao Ruyue looking left and right, Old Madam Xiao felt a little lost in her heart, thinking that Xiao Ruyue was disgusted with the vicissitudes of the house, sighed, and said, "It really made the queen smile." Our Xiao family is indeed not what it used to be, and it is not as good as before. ”

"The old lady misunderstood, this palace doesn't mean this." Xiao Ruyue patted the old lady's hand, which was considered to comfort her, "Being diligent and thrifty is exactly what the king advocates." The Xiao Mansion is very quiet, and compared with the extravagance and extravagance of many Houmen families, the palace admires the old lady's housekeeping more. ”

"The queen mother praised it falsely."

Xiao Ruyue's appeasement was very effective, and only three or two sentences made Old Madam Xiao smile.

There is a Qingxin Pavilion in the backyard, which was built by Xiao Jingyu when he was a child, Xiao Ruyue was still young at that time, and she was a few years older than Jing Yu. This Pure Heart Pavilion is their shared memory.

Ripples diligently brought hot tea and snacks, didn't dare to speak more, and stood quietly behind Old Madam Xiao.

Xiao Ruyue glanced at her, smiled and asked Old Madam Xiao, "Old Madam, did the ripples come to the Xiao Mansion to cause you trouble?" ”

"No, no, the mother misunderstood, Ripple is a good child, since Ripple came over, all the work at home was done by her alone, and she always rushed to do it with the cook, the old body didn't want her to work so hard, but this child just didn't listen."

The old lady was afraid that Ripple would be punished, and her tone was a little eager.

"Niangniang, you help persuade her, you can't let her be so aggrieved, no matter how you say it, Ripples is also the person who came out of the Feng Palace, Niangniang."

The old lady was full of concern for the ripples in and out of her words, but in the end, she was afraid that Xiao Ruyue would hear something, so she hurriedly added.

Xiao Ruyue paused, "That old lady came out of the Invitation Phoenix Palace because of the ripples, and she didn't want to wronged her, or was she afraid that she would work hard and worry about her?" ”

Saying this, Xiao Ruyue's gaze shot sharply at the ripples.

Old Madam Xiao didn't know how to deal with it for a while.

Ripple stood behind the old lady, her little face turned white, and she was a little at a loss.

"Niangniang, the old body also knows that Miss Ripple is a person from the Invite Feng Palace, and our Xiao family should not be delusional. But this kid is ...... with our family."

The old lady wanted to speak and stopped, and when she turned around and saw the ripples on her pale face, she couldn't care much about it, got up and knelt down towards Xiao Ruyue.

"Niangniang, Ripple is a good girl, everything she has done in our house these days, the old body has seen it. The old body begged the mother to let the ripples stay! ”

Ripple also knelt down and said tremblingly: "Niangniang, Ripple begs you to let the slave stay." In the future, you let the ripples be a cow and a horse. ”

"Old lady, please get up." Xiao Ruyue was kneeling down by her and quickly got up and helped the old lady up.

The green clothes were quick and helped the ripples up.

Xiao Ruyue said: "Old lady, you also understand what you mean. According to the example, palace maids can go out of the palace to marry after they reach their age, and this precedent for leaving the palace in advance is not unprecedented. It's not a big deal. If Lord Xiao and Ripple are in love, this palace can fulfill them, and there is no need to be so serious as a cow or a horse. ”

Ripple's eyes were red with excitement, and tears were falling from her eyes.

The old lady also thanked her repeatedly.

But Xiao Ruyue sank, and said: "But old lady, you really think about it, with the Xiao family's court, do you really let Lord Shangshu marry a girl from a humble background like Ripple as his wife?" If Lord Xiao marries a little palace maid, I am afraid that others will gossip in the future. ”

Although she is happy to be an adult, this is related to Jing Yu's future after all, and she doesn't want to be too hasty.

As soon as Xiao Ruyue said this, the ripples bit her lower lip tightly, but the tears stopped.

She knelt down in front of Xiao Ruyue and kowtowed solemnly: "Niangniang, Ripples know that her humble background is not worthy of Lord Xiao and the courtyard of Xiao Mansion, but if Ripples is lucky enough to marry into the Xiao family, Ripple Ding will do her best to take care of the adults and the old lady, so that the adults have no worries." ”

"Niangniang, you also heard it, there are ripples, and the old body has nothing to worry about." Old Madam Xiao was also moved by Ripple's words.

"Marriage is indeed a matter of being a good person, but it is more important to be happy and stay together, Niangniang, please let the ripples stay."

The old lady said that she was about to kneel down again.

Xiao Ruyue quickly hugged her, "The old lady doesn't want to kneel anymore, since Lord Xiao and the old lady can see the ripples, and the ripples are willing to stay in the Xiao Mansion, the palace will not forcibly take people away." However, marriage events should not be sloppy, after the entrance examination of the University of Science and Technology today, it is still necessary for Lord Xiao to prepare for his life, and the three books and six ceremonies will welcome the ripples through the door. ”

"Yes, yes, etiquette cannot be abolished." The old lady had a lot on her mind, and she was full of smiles.

"Slave and maid, thank the queen for her great kindness." Ripple solemnly kowtowed in thanksgiving.

Xiao Ruyue did not stop this ceremony.

Because, being reasonable, whether she is Xiao Ruyue or the queen's mother, the ripples are all to thank for this gift.

Xiao Ruyue was also relieved.

But suddenly I heard the old lady sigh: "If my son and daughter-in-law are alive, and my grandchildren, granddaughter-in-law and Yue'er are also here, and the family is happy to marry Yu'er, how good it would be." ”

Xiao Ruyue's heart froze, and she throbbed like a hammer.

At this moment, tears almost burst out of my eyes.

She had a lot of words in her heart, she wanted to call her grandma in front of the old lady, and wanted to tell her grandmother: I am Yue'er, Yue'er is back.

But she didn't have the courage to do it, and she couldn't do it.

Ripple helped the old lady and said to Xiao Ruyue worriedly: "Grandma often talks about the old lady and the young lady, the young lady married the prince of Wei as a concubine, but unfortunately died in childbirth. Since the prince of Wei remarried the current princess, the two families have broken off contact. Grandma, this is touching the scene. ”
