Chapter 117: The Visitation (I)

When Huaxi went back, Mu Xiangqing hadn't come back yet. After finishing the meal, Huaxi lay on the soft couch on her back, and the book was covered on her face, and she couldn't tell whether she was asleep or awake. Cui Ming tiptoed to put up a thin sheet and was withdrawn.

I once imagined what my father looked like, but unfortunately it was just a vague shadow in a dream. Now this person may be not far away, but she suddenly feels that she dare not recognize him. Fourteen years, eight years as an orphan, and suddenly his father, who has never shown up, has a message, who is afraid that it will be difficult to adapt psychologically, right?

Under the shadow of the book, Huaxi smiled self-deprecatingly, and unconsciously, her eyes were already slightly wet.

What about admitting it or not? If you don't admit it, can you really forget the blood connection? admit it, maybe there will be a lot of trouble......

Closing his eyes, for a moment he seemed to hear the dead Mu Xiangwan smiling and whispering his name, and for a while he seemed to see himself kneeling on his parents' grave in his previous life and crying...... Half-asleep and half-awake, Huaxi felt that someone was calling her.

"Girl, girl......"

Huaxi withdrew the book, wiped it with his hand, and wiped away the tears in his eyes, "What's the matter?" ”

"Mrs. Gu is back, please come over."

Huaxi answered, got up, washed her face, changed her clothes and went to the courtyard.

Mu Xiangqing teased Brother Lin in the house, and when Brother Lin saw Huaxi, he wanted to play with Huaxi again.

"My mother wants to talk to my sister, I will ask the nurse to take Brother Lin to play in the garden, and then ask my sister to accompany you when she finishes talking later."

Brother Lin glanced at her mother, then turned her head to look at Huaxi, pouted, and reluctantly said the word "good".

The nurse took Brother Lin and left.

Mu Xiangqing said: "...... Yun Yi is heavy, and she thinks that the palace is boring, and it just so happens that Princess Luodong, the second princess of the first year, is on her birthday, and she said let me take you to the mansion for a walk. The princess agreed. ”

Huaxi nodded, a little absent-minded.

Mu Xiangqing asked, "But it's uncomfortable?" ”

"No, I went to Yao Ji today, and I felt a little tired when I came back."

"Go back and rest later, don't go looking for Brother Lin."

"Hehe, it's okay. The child's mind is sensitive, and since I have already promised Brother Lin, I can't be untrustworthy. ”

Out of the house, Huaxi went to the garden to find Brother Lin, and accompanied him to play and laugh for a while, and the depression in his chest dissipated a lot. Some things are unpredictable, she is upset and useless, Huaxi wants to open up, so she simply doesn't bother anymore.

Early in the morning of the second day of August, Huaxi asked Mu Xiangqing to say goodbye, Mu Xiangqing confessed a few words, and the two got up and went to Donghuali by car.

The car went to the Hanging Flower Gate, and Huaxi got out of the car.

At a glance, the white gray wall, the rhombic tile, along the wall of the leaky window carved with various colors of relief, turn your head, the big red door on the hemp beam head drooping between the lotus pillars carved on the beam carved "Yutang wealth" figure. Red, green, blue, gold, all colors are complex, layered, magnificent.

Compared with the Mu family, which was originally a private residence of a businessman, this is a real wealthy house.

Before I had time to look more, the mother-in-law waiting at the second door led Mu Xiangqing and Huaxi into the door, passed through the hand-copying verandah to the inner courtyard, and the two changed the sedan chair and went to the concubine to meet first.

After getting off the sedan chair, Huaxi lowered her eyebrows and followed behind Mu Xiangqing, not daring to look around.

As the maid lifted the curtain, a faint orchid fragrance hit her nose, and Huaxi raised her feet and stepped over the threshold and entered the main hall.

Mu Xiangqing led Huaxi to greet the concubine, and the concubine politely invited the two to sit down.

Huaxi secretly looked at the two-eyed concubine, around thirty years old, wearing a purple and red quilt, wearing a light bean green sprinkled flower pleated skirt, with delicate makeup painted on her face, her facial features are not top-notch, willow eyebrows and phoenix eyes, with a faint smile at the corners of her lips, dignified and decent.

Concubine Shi and Mu Xiangqing exchanged a few words, and they were so faint from beginning to end, without any enthusiasm. After speaking, she led the two of them to greet Princess Luodong.

As soon as the two entered the house, Princess Luodong was chatting with someone. Huaxi peeked at it, it was Princess Luoxi. Seeing the ceremony, Mu Xiangqing and Huaxi prepared to see Yunyi. Outsiders reported that the eldest princess and the county lord of Duanning had arrived.

Everyone got up and went out to greet them.

Qiongzhi said ten thousand blessings to Princess Luodong, said two auspicious words, and then talked to Huaxi: "You are here too." ”

Huaxi nodded and said, "Hmm"

Over there, Mu Xiangqing was talking to the eldest princess that he was going to Yunyi's courtyard. Princess Luodong and the eldest princess both responded.

Qiongzhi grabbed Huaxi and said to the eldest princess and Princess Luodong: "Mother, you stay and talk to the two princesses, and I will go with Huaxi to see Yunyi first." ”

"Go ahead, let you accompany a few of us, I'm afraid I won't be able to sit still for a moment." The eldest princess smiled, "Xiang Qing, you look at her a little, don't let her hurt Yunyi in a careless way." ”

"Mother-" Qiong Zhijiao snorted, "People won't." ”

Princess Luodong said to Concubine Shifei: "Fang Qing accompanied me to the front yard to have a look, and the guests are estimated to be arriving one after another...... Yun Yi has a body, and he can't help you, so I'm more tired today. ”

The concubine replied on the side: "Whatever the mother says, this is what the daughter-in-law should do." ”

sent the three of them all the way to Yunyi's courtyard, and when they arrived at the place, the concubine left.

When the three of them entered the house, Yunyi was leaning on the side of the kang to eat.

"Auntie, Huaxi, Duanning, are you all here?" Seeing them coming, Yunyi hurriedly asked the maid to clean up the kang table and wanted to get off the kang.

Mu Xiangqing hurriedly stopped, "You should lie down because of your weight." ”

Huaxi took a closer look, Yunyi's face was also a little rounder than the last time she was in Qinghu, her belly was obviously bulging, and her body was a lot bloated.

"Fourth sisterβ€”" Huaxi called, "You better lie down." ”

"Yes, yes, they are not outsiders. Shumin, your belly is so big, it's better to be careful. Qiong Zhi leaned in curiously, stretched out her hand to touch Yunyi's belly, remembered what the eldest princess said and took it back.

Yun Yi lay back as she said, and told the maid with a smile: "Come on, prepare tea." ”

Mu Xiangqing asked Yun Yi how she was doing these days and how she was eating. Huaxi listened on the side, and Qiongzhi's eyes were always on Yunyi's belly, and she couldn't wait to go up and touch it when she saw that look. Huaxi lowered her head and snickered, Qiong Zhi heard it, glanced at her, snorted lightly, and turned her head away in shame.

The maids came in to serve tea, Huaxi raised her eyes and found that it was Frangipani who served tea, and she was smiling and wanting to say hello, but she saw that the hair ornament on her head had changed, and she had combed the woman's bun, and her eyes were dark.

"County lord, girl, please use tea."

Qiong Zhi hummed in a low voice, and listened to Mu Xiangqing and Yun Yi talking again. Huaxi nodded at Frangipani, and the smile on her face disappeared. Su Xin seemed to feel that Huaxi's face suddenly changed, her face showed a little unnaturalness, and she put down the teacup and retreated.

Huaxi kept watching her leave, and then withdrew her gaze.

Qiong Zhi on the side was puzzled: "Do you know that maid?" ”

"Hmm" Huaxi nodded, "It's the fourth sister's side to marry the maid." ”

Qiong Zhi saw that Huaxi's face was wrong, and said lightly: "Oh, it's just a maid in the room." There are also five concubines in the Luodong Wang's mansion, and the most disadvantaged father is also a seventh-grade official...... Don't worry, she won't get in the way of Somin. ”

Huaxi sighed and didn't speak again, her eyes looked at Yun Yi who was smiling, and somehow, her heart was clogged......

"Huaxi, what's wrong?" Yun Yi seemed to sense that the atmosphere on Huaxi and Qiongzhi's side was not right, and asked softly.

Huaxi hurriedly smiled and said, "It's okay." Qiong Zhi looked at the fourth sister's belly and her eyes lit up...... Hehe, I thought about going up and touching her when I saw her......"

Yun Yi was stunned, Qiong Zhi glared at Hua Xi, and turned her head to look at Yun Yi, "Don't listen to Hua Xi's nonsense." ”

Huaxi glanced at Qiong Zhi, "Actually, I want to touch it too." ”

Yun Yi smiled happily: "It's okay, before you came, this little guy was still moving, but there was no movement now." ”

"Really?" Qiong Zhi's eyes widened, "I'll just touch it, I'll be very careful." ”
