Chapter Seventy-Six: Old Things

There is no hostess in King An's mansion, which is certainly less troublesome in some senses. But there are more inconveniences. For example, the Qin family is a female guest, but there is no hostess in King An's mansion. So when King An and the Qin family spoke, Xiao Dong himself became a host and a guest, and led the Qin family to see the house where he lived in Yufang Pavilion, everything in the house was the same, the veil on the window had just been changed, the flowers on the table were also blooming vigorously, and the tent of flowers, birds, fish and insects was hung on the bed. Xiao Dong's eyes were sharp, and he saw that there was a book on the small table next to the couch that had not been put away. It is impossible for the next person to sit on the couch and read a book in her room, presumably either King An has been here, or Zhao Lu has been here for a long time.

Xiao Dong's heart was slightly sour. Whether it was King An or Zhao Lu spending time here, seeing things and thinking about people, it made her feel moved and sorry.

It's true that she's coming back less these days, and her new life is taking up most of her attention.

Be sure to come back frequently in the future. Anyway, the new home is not far from King An's Mansion, and it is convenient for her to come over for three meals a day.

Over the years, she has been well-behaved and obedient, Cheng Huan kneeled, and suddenly got married, King An must feel quiet and lonely in her ears.

Most of Xiao Dong's books had moved to her new home, and there were some books in the study room of Yufang Pavilion that she had read and studied before and couldn't use now, and many of them were used when she was in Jiyutang. Qin Shi praised him: "Have you read all these books?" ”

"I haven't read them all. Like the first few sets on the head, they are used for façade, and they haven't turned a page since they moved in. These are also from the past. ”

"It's amazing to be able to read and read. I don't know much about reading, but I still became a pro-Lie'er and his father taught me by hand, but unfortunately I was young at that time and couldn't sit still, and I always didn't have the patience to learn, just to make him happy, I just followed his will to learn...... Now that I think about it, I regret it. ”

"Shall we go to the garden? There are a lot of fish in the pond behind King An's mansion, and they are fed every day, and those with fat heads and ears are more than two feet long. ”

Qin nodded and said, "Okay." By the way, does Lie'er know that we are coming to the palace tonight? ”

"I know, I've already sent someone to deliver him a letter."

It was already evening, and Xiao Dong and the others had been talking for so long, but when they turned their heads, they didn't see Yao Jinfeng. Xiao Dong called twice, but didn't listen to her. came out to look for her, Yao Jinfeng walked around from the swing frame behind the house.

Qin said, "What are you doing outside?" ”

"I want to see if the house I used to live in is still there."

Xiao Dong looked at her expression and guessed that she probably didn't just feel emotional when she revisited the old land.

In fact, it is often not the old place that evokes people's memories and emotions.

but the people who have seen it in this old land, what they have said, and what they have done.

There is a saying that things are not people. Even though the house where Yao Jinfeng once lived is still the same, everything in the past is in the past after all.

She didn't say much, though.

The dinner is very sumptuous, it is considered to be a pleasure for the guests and hosts, and the chefs of King An's Mansion are also very authentic to make Suizhou-style dishes, Qin Lie specially said that the three dishes of cold water tofu grits and fish and crispy leaf pork ribs are the local chefs in Suizhou who are afraid that they will not be able to make this taste. An Wang just smiled: "Xiao Dong's mother is also half of Suizhou, and the cooks in the house have learned such a trick and a half." ”

Xiao Dong's hand scooping the soup was slightly paused.

Yes, Yao Qingyuan can also be regarded as a native of Suizhou, but Xiao Dong also knows that she left Suizhou and came to the capital when she was very young, so she will always forget this inadvertently.

Qin didn't know what to think of, his face showed a little melancholy and gloom, and the atmosphere on the table sank. Xiao Dong hurriedly diverted the conversation and talked about the big fish in the pond: "This fish is too comfortable to live, and it is so fat that it can't swim." People should be fed less fish food every day. ”

Zhao Lu shook his head and said with a smile: "Sister, don't be too ruthless, how many years can a fish live?" With its age, even if it is not the ancestor of the fish in the pool, it is also the grandfather of the fish, the uncle of the fish, and the sister is the most kind-hearted and soft-hearted, so the right is to respect the elderly, and this fish food should not be harsh. ”

Everyone at the table laughed and covered up the depression just now.

After the meal, King An repeatedly stayed guests, and Xiao Dong smiled and said, "Anyway, it's not far, and it's not too late, so let's go back." If my father doesn't annoy you, I'll come to eat every day in the future. ”

Sure enough, King An smiled and said to her: "It's still so naughty when you get married." He also said to the Qin family that his daughter was stubborn, and hoped that she would be good and she would discipline her.

Every father and mother will say that they don't hear anything, and they want to devalue their children to worthless, but the people who listen to this can never take it seriously. There is a saying that the wife is the good of others, and the children are the good of oneself. Even if their children are really useless, they are also unique treasures in the eyes of their parents. Although Qin's family is straightforward, she can also get around this reason, and then there are people who come and go, and they also praise and belittle Qin Lie to King An, which means that Qin Lie can have this life is given by King An, and when he grows up, he is thanks to King An's support and teaching, and he has blue eyes and gives his beloved daughter to him, and he praises King An in all aspects of love, grace and righteousness. Xiao Dong and Qin Lie, you look at me, I look at you, and listen with a smile.

Unexpectedly, the Qin family also talked about these things in one set - sure enough, people are old and fine, whether they are straightforward or not, and they are good at people.

However, her tone was sincere, and what she said was true. Didn't King An help when Qin Lie was born? Otherwise, it is really hard to say whether the lives of the mother and son can be saved. Qin Lie came to the capital to study and lived in King An's Mansion, and in addition, the treasure of the four seas can take root in the capital and develop and grow, and there must be King An's care. Otherwise, can it be so stable? The most important thing in Beijing is the powerful, and if the powerful have the intention of stealing, the trouble is endless.

On the way back, Qin Lie rode a horse, and Xiaodong and their mothers sat in the car. Although it was dark, the hustle and bustle on the streets of the capital was no less than that of daytime. The weather is hot, and the women who come and go on the street are dressed in bright and bright colors, some are bandeau silk skirts, some are wearing hufu shawls, some are wearing hats, and some are covered with veils.

Qin was surprised: "It's so late, there are still so many people on the street?" Isn't there a curfew? ”

"It's not time yet. Summer is always lively, and after eating, there are always people who want to go out for a walk. Winter is much colder. However, there is no curfew for the three days of Shangyuan, and people can have fun at that time. If you want to go shopping, let's stop the car and get out of the car for a turn? ”

Qin shook his head and said, "No need, everyone is tired today." The days are long, and it's never too late to come back for a visit. ”

After lying down at night, Xiaodong was obviously tired, but he couldn't sleep well. It was as if something was vaguely passing through her mind, but she couldn't remember. Turning over, Qin Lie reached out and hugged her, and asked in a low voice, "Can't sleep?" ”

If you can't sleep, you can still make up for sleep the next day, but Qin Lie is going out: "It's okay, it may be hot." ”

Qin Lie touched the head of the bed twice, Xiao Dong only felt a slight coldness on his face, and Qin Lie took a bamboo fan to cool her down.

"No fan, it's not that hot."

"It's okay, you close your eyes, your heart is quiet, and you fall asleep after a while."

Of course, the person who is fanned is comfortable, but the person who wields the fan should be so tired.

Xiao Dong leaned on Qin Lie's shoulder and asked in a low voice, "Aren't you busy today?" It's been a tiring day, too. ”

"It doesn't matter to me, I'm a martial arts practitioner, and my physique is better than yours."

Xiao Dong pinched the sturdy piece of flesh on his arm, and said with a smile: "Yes, like a brute bull." ”

Qin Lie's head leaned over: "Moo-the bull is here." ”

Xiao Dong giggled and knocked him on the chest a few times.

"If you can't sleep, I'll go with you to the garden?"

Xiao Dong shook his head: "Don't go, the doors are locked, I don't have to make everyone quarrel, we are all married, and-" She suddenly remembered something, stunned.

Qin Lie didn't say anything after hearing her say a word, and asked softly, "What's wrong?" ”

"I ......" What Xiao Dong wanted to say just now was that they had become husband and wife, what kind of private meeting did they have in the middle of the night? Quasi-jokes.

But for a moment, she suddenly remembered an old thing. That was a few years ago, when Yao Jinfeng was still living in King An's Mansion. One night, Xiao Dong couldn't sleep, so he went out into the courtyard and heard a man and a woman whispering privately at the base of the wall.

At that time, she only felt that it was Yahuan who had a personal affair with the guard, and she didn't say anything. Later, after a long time, she gradually forgot about it.

But now Xiao Dong suddenly remembered.

At that time, the words of those two people were the urgency of the woman and the helplessness of the man...... Today, Yao Jinfeng walked around from behind the flowers on the swing - the house she lived in was not in that direction.

At that time, the people who had a private meeting by the wall that night were actually Yao Jinfeng and the third prince.

That's right......

The memories that had been blurred gradually became clear.

That's right, it's the two of them.

"Xiaodong? What's wrong? ”

She steadied herself and whispered, "Nothing...... That is, I suddenly remembered that I had heard a man and a woman have a private meeting at the base of the wall of Yufang Pavilion at night. I didn't think about it at the time, but now I suddenly understand that those two people are not others......"

Qin Lie was definitely not stupid, he was stunned for a moment, and immediately said, "It's Jinfeng and the Third Prince?" ”

"Yes, it's them. They've certainly seen it more than once, but I've met that once. At that time, the third prince was already about to get engaged, and Jinfeng was uneasy......"

It turned out that they were passing right under their noses, but they didn't notice it earlier.

"Don't mention it, it's all in the past anyway."

Both of them are married, and there is no need to mention the ridiculous things that they did when they were young and frivolous.

Qin Lie's hand fanning her stopped.

Xiao Dong turned his head to look at him, Qin Lie's hand froze there, his eyes looking at the top of the tent.

"What's wrong?"

Qin Lie came back to his senses and continued to fan her: "It's okay." I thought I was the only one who climbed over the wall of the Yufang Pavilion, but I didn't think that the three princes would also ......."

Xiao Dong snorted him softly, and smiled secretly again.

————————

No, the illness is not lighter, but it is getting worse and worse......

I've only slept for about ten hours in the past few days, and I can't stop coughing.

Go to the hospital tomorrow.

Hug everyone.
