Chapter 256: Return to Beijing

As soon as these words came out, Lian Mo's face suddenly became more and more pale, seeing Lian Mo's complexion, he secretly sneered, and then paced towards the door, and a hoarse voice fell coldly: "Finally, I will give you another chance, although Xiao Chen still doesn't know that you are my person, but if you disobey my orders again, I will definitely not show mercy to your subordinates." ”

Seeing the dark figure disappear at the door of the tent, Lian Mo's face became more and more pale, and her eyes were slightly red, she swallowed her tears back into her stomach, straightened her mind, touched the long sword in her arms, and at the end, her face fell silent, as if nothing had happened, but something was different.

Not long after, the barbarian soldiers attacked again, Da Liang won a big victory because of the formation set by the Wushuang County Lord, it was already a later story, when he heard the news of the victory, Chu Nianren was already in the capital, and Chu Yuanlang was secretly handed over to the care of the Medicine King, and it was said to the outside that Chu Yuanlang was still at the border and was not rescued.

Next, it's time to deal with the house thieves.

The news of Chu Nian's return to Beijing had already spread all over the capital one step ahead of Chu Nian, and when Xiao Chen heard the news, his face immediately turned pale, "Wasn't she arrested by Qinghe?" How is it still alive? ”

"Not only is she still alive, I heard that she has also learned illusions, so she is already a person from Qinghe."

Hearing this, Xiao Chen suddenly sat down on the Taishi chair and looked at the people in the room with a helpless face: "What should I do?" What are we going to do? Did she already know that Chu Yuanlang was arrested by someone I sent? ”

The dark rin on the side calmly drank the tea in the cup, and after a while, he played with a string of Buddhist beads on his wrist and said, "When Madam did these things, she didn't think that Chu Nian would come back?" ”

Xiao Chen gradually calmed down, and after a while, she gritted her teeth and said, "Please give instructions to the Deputy National Teacher, what should we do now?" ”

Dark Rin swept over Xiao Chen without a trace of emotion: "I thought that with Madame's ability, I would not be afraid of the unequaled county lord." ”

After saying that, he got up and said, "The Queen Mother said, if you are really the enemy of Chu Nian, you will be useless." ”

After that, he didn't care about Xiao Chen's gloomy complexion, turned around and walked towards the door, Xiao Chen was standing in place, gritting his teeth and making people suspicious, if Dark Rin stayed for a while, he was afraid that he would be eaten alive by her.

At this stall, I saw a little maid walking in from outside the door: "Mrs. Qiyu, Mother Zhu asked, if the lady comes back, should a few charcoal pots be added to this herb house." ”

Xiao Chen snorted coldly: "This is that as soon as Chu Nian comes back, she wants to turn over and be the master?" Halfway through her words, she suddenly had a flash of inspiration and said, "Wait." ”

The little girl who had been ordered to leave looked back at her wife a little strangely, and saw an inexplicable and sinister smile on Xiao Chen's face, which made the little maids present shudder.

"Ma'am, ma'am?"

Xiao Chen laughed, then put on a kind face and said: "Of course, the charcoal basin has to be added, and it has to be added more, don't freeze the three ladies, by the way, go back and call Zhu's mother over once, I still have something to ask her." ”

"Yes." The maid was puzzled, took the order, turned around and walked out of the door, and when she was far away, she dared to whisper, "What's wrong with this lady?" Didn't you don't want to see Zhu's mother on weekdays, and how many times did you want to kick Zhu's mother out? How did you turn sex today......"

The news of Chu Nian's return spread in the city for three days, but when Chu Nian really came back, it was three days later, and the strange thing was that Xiao Chen took almost the whole family to wait at the door of Chu's house, and that battle was almost much stronger than every time the prince came to Chu's house.

Seeing such a battle, Chu Nian was not too surprised, when Chu Nian's carriage stopped at the door and Xiao Chen personally greeted her, Chu Nian regarded her as air and didn't even look at her.

Getting off the carriage, Chu Nian walked towards the herb house, Xiao Chen's face was gloomy for a moment, and then he hurriedly waved his subordinates away, only then did he put a stiff smile on his face, and trotted all the way to catch up with Chu Nian.

"Nian'er, at the Qinghe Hall Master, are you injured? Did they bully you? Is it still a hard journey? I've already asked someone to make you a few winter coats, and it's already cold these days, so you don't want to wear them so thinly anymore. ”

Chu Nian has been gone for more than a month, looking at the Chu family compound in front of her at this moment, she actually felt a little strange, she looked around, only to see that the flowers and trees in the center of the herb seemed to have been trimmed, at this moment in the winter a few lonely branches and some hay, she turned her eyes to look at the center of the garden, the huge plane tree was still there.

After a little calm, Chu Nian turned his eyes and glanced at Xiao Chen, who was still following him with a smile, and said indifferently: "Madame, doesn't there anything else to do?" I don't need a lady to serve here. ”

Hearing this, Xiao Chen's footsteps stopped, his face froze, and he saw Chu Nian walking towards the house, ignoring her again.

Xiao Chen's face was touched, and when he heard a whisper from a few maids on the side, his face suddenly turned gloomy, and he turned his eyes to look at a few maids and said, "Why don't you go and prepare for the third lady to catch the wind and wash the dust, what are you talking about here?" Begging for a beating? ”

Seeing that Xiao Chen's anger, several maids and wives suddenly dispersed, Xiao Chen's eyes turned at this time, glanced at the door of the herb house with a gloomy face, gritted his teeth and snorted coldly, and turned to leave.

Chu Nian entered the vanilla house, only to find that there were a lot of charcoal pots in the vanilla house, and Mei Xiang and Zhu's mother had already greeted them, followed by a strange maid.

Mei Xiang took a few steps forward, looked at Chu Nian with surprise in her eyes and said, "Lady, you can count yourself back!" ”

Zhu's mother was also in tears, and seeing that Chu Nian was intact, Zhu's mother wiped her tears and said, "It's okay if the lady is fine, it's good to come back." ”

Knowing that Mother Zhu had been thinking about herself, Chu Nian couldn't help but feel nostalgic in her heart, and took a few steps forward to take Mother Zhu's hand and said, "Mom, don't cry, I'm fine?" By the way, Mom, I haven't come back these days, I still miss the osmanthus cake made by Mother Zhu very much, can you make me some relief from my cravings? ”

Seeing Chu Nian comforting herself, Mother Zhu wiped a handful of tears and opened her mouth, and at this point, she saw Mei Xiang answering: "Lady doesn't need to say, knowing that the lady is safe and sound, Mother Zhu has already prepared a large plate of osmanthus cakes, just waiting for the lady to come back to appetize the lady, and a large table of meals, which are already on the way to prepare." ”

Chu Nian smiled and nodded, and turned his eyes to look at Mother Zhu gently: "Mother Zhu has a heart." ”

Mother Zhu couldn't help but feel nostalgic in her heart, in the end, the child she watched grow up was no different from the child she gave birth to, and now that she has achieved something and is so sensible, she is also a little distressed, what happened to Chu Nian along the way, she also sees it in her eyes, and now seeing Chu Nian grow into the pillar of the entire Chu family, she can't help but feel very relieved in her heart.

At this time, he spoke again: "If the lady is alive and knows that the lady is doing well now, I am afraid that it will be very relieved, but it is a pity that ......"

Chu Nian frowned, and immediately took Zhu's mother's hand and comforted: "Mother Zhu, don't worry, now my mother must also be smiling Jiuquan." ”

Seeing that Mother Zhu opened her mouth to say something, Chu Nian, who was reluctant to continue this heavy topic, hurriedly changed the topic and said, "I'm a little hungry, Mother Zhu, where is the osmanthus cake?" ”

"Here," Zhu's mother hurriedly took Chu Nian's hand and walked towards the cabinet: "It's tiring to travel, the lady must be hungry, look at my temperament, I like nostalgia." ”

Mei Xiang on the side followed behind Chu Nian very happily, muttering, "It's good that the lady is back, and we are not afraid that Xiao Chen will bully us again." ”

As she spoke, she also glared fiercely at the strange little maid who followed behind her, and then said loudly: "I still want to install people in our herb house, and I don't dislike cheesy again." ”

The maid's face turned red when she was sneered by Mei Xiang, and she hurriedly waved her hand and said, "No, it's not like this, Sister Mei Xiang, Madam just thinks that the lady is not enough to come back to Vanilla House, and she is afraid that she will not be able to take care of the lady, so she sent me to ......."

Chu Nian glanced at her sideways: "It's enough for Vanilla to have Mei Xiang and Mother Zhu, if it's not enough, I will ask Madame for it, you go back." ”

After that, without looking at the embarrassed maid, he walked towards the cabinet.

In the cabinet, a whole table was set up with a dazzling array of snacks, and it seemed that Zhu's mother had been busy for a long time to prepare these snacks.

When he was in the place of Hutong, all the food was prescribed by Hutong, and then prepared by Li'er herself, Li'er's craftsmanship was a little worse, and there were some porridge and side dishes every day, Chu Nian had already eaten uncomfortably, and now seeing the steaming dim sum made by Zhu's mother, he suddenly moved his index finger, and regardless of the people who followed him, he rushed forward and feasted on it.

Mother Zhu looked at Chu Nian who was eating with relief, and couldn't help but say, "Lady, you eat slowly, drink some tea, and there will be a reception banquet in a while, don't stay and can't eat for a while." ”

Chu Nian stuffed a piece of osmanthus cake into his mouth, and when the osmanthus cake melted in his mouth, he saw Mei Xiang take a few steps forward, holding a cup of tea in his hand.

Swallowing the osmanthus cake and taking another sip of tea, Chu Nian felt a little better, until he tasted the bitter taste in his mouth, Chu Nian frowned and said, "What kind of tea is this?" ”

Mei Xiang opened her mouth, and at this stall, she saw the little maid who followed them at some point and said, "Hui Niangzi, this is orange tea, which is used to ward off evil spirits." ”

Chu Nian narrowed his eyes, put the tea cup aside, and saw that Mei Xiang was a little annoyed and said, "You said you were going to make tea, so I let you go, what kind of orange tea did you make?" Do you want to make the young lady cold in winter? ”

The little maid was scolded by Mei Xiang for her blood, so she looked at Chu Nian for help, and when she saw Chu Nian ignoring it, she turned her eyes to look at Mother Zhu for help.

Mother Zhu was the most soft-hearted, and she couldn't see the pitiful appearance of the little maid at the moment, so she sighed and said: "Meixiang, it's just a little girl, you go and make a pot again, don't refute the lady's interest." ”

Hearing this, Mei Xiang had no choice but to glare at the maid fiercely, turned around and went to the side room to make tea again.

Chu Nian raised his eyes and glanced at the maid, then turned his eyes to Mother Zhu and said, "Mother Zhu, has something big happened in the house recently?" ”

Hearing this, Mother Zhu suddenly turned her head to look at Chu Nian and opened her mouth, "Lady's ......"
