Chapter 35: Night in the Country
Jiang Xinyi pushed open the door, the outline of a small courtyard under the starlight was hazy in front of her, and there was a small boat-like crescent moon hanging in the night sky.
"Woke up?" Wen Yuxin's voice sounded behind her, pulling her back to reality.
"Well, but what kind of place is this?" Jiang Xinyi still looked at the sky and asked the person behind her.
"You don't know, come with me." Wen Yuxin stepped forward and took her hand and walked into another room. As soon as they stepped into the threshold, Xiaohuai rushed to Wen Yuxin's side and looked at Jiang Xinyi and asked; "Daddy, who is this brother? How come I haven't seen it? ”
"Xiaohuai, don't shout." The old woman hurriedly reprimanded.
"Auntie, it's okay." Wen Yuxin let go of Jiang Xinyi's hand and said to the old woman, while hugging Xiaohuai with a frightened face.
Auntie? Daddy? Where is this? confused Jiang Xinyi, who had not fully sobered up.
"Brother, Xiaohuai is wrong, he is Xiaohuai's uncle, not Xiaohuai's father, brother don't tell the bad guys." Xiaohuai pleaded with Jiang Xinyi with tears in her eyes.
Brother? Oh, by the way, Jiang Xinyi remembered that she was a man at this time. What does Wen Yuxin have to do with these people, she is not interested in knowing at all, and it has nothing to do with her anyway.
"The old slave greets the princess, the child is not sensible, please don't blame it." The old woman stood up and said to Jiang Xinyi, and Fu Bo also stood up, but did not speak.
"It's okay, kid, what's not to blame?" Jiang Xinyi said indifferently.
Looking at the jade carved child in front of her, she was a mother's love, and the child's heart was the purest, so she was afraid to clap her hands at Xiaohuai, "Xiaohuai, come and hug my brother." ”
As soon as Xiaohuai heard this, he immediately looked up at Wen Yuxin to ask for his opinion, and when he saw him smiling, he stretched out his little hand to Jiang Xinyi; "I want my brother to hug me."
Jiang Xinyi stretched out her hand to take the child, and naturally kissed him on his little face and said; "That's good."
Jiang Xinyi patronized and looked at the little huai in her arms, but she didn't pay attention at all, and the prince, the old woman, and Fu Bo in the house all felt incredible.
"Brother, let's go to the fire." Xiaohuai pointed to a brazier in the middle of the room, which Fu Bo was afraid of Wen Yuxin's coldness, so he got it.
Jiang Xinyi sat on the chair by the brazier with the child in her arms, and then looked at a few people in the room, first the old woman, who was nearly fifty years old, although the clothes on her body were made of ordinary fabric, and she only had a very ordinary silver hairpin on her head, and there were already a few wrinkles on her face, but she could still see that she was definitely a beauty embryo when she was young.
Look at the white-bearded old man, kind and kind, like Santa Claus, although he is old, he can't see the appearance of the old dragon clock.
Jiang Xinyi could clearly feel that these two didn't seem to have a good impression of her, and there was some contempt and hatred in their eyes, although they were already deliberately hiding, alas, it was still the little boy in her arms, honestly snuggled on her chest, very happy.
"The princess didn't eat dinner, she must be hungry, the old slave will do it, but there are no good things in this countryside, the princess should not dislike it." The old woman said that she was about to go out the door.
"A-Niang, wait." Jiang Xinyi parroted Wen Yuxin and called the old woman and aunt.
The old woman was stunned when she heard this, and then replied; "The old woman's name is Mu Yun, what does the princess say, just say, this aunt, the old body really doesn't dare to take it."
Cut, what is this for? Haven't I known what to call you? Really, I've never seen it before, what's the deep hatred and hatred? Jiang Xinyi felt a little unhappy in her heart, but she didn't want to worry about her.
"It's nothing, I'm not very hungry, so I don't have to bother you." Jiang Xinyi said.
For a while, the atmosphere in the room seemed a little awkward, the old woman did not enter or retreat, and she also regretted what she had just said, but the words she said were like water spilled out, and she could not be recovered.
"Xinyi, don't be childish, A-Niang is my nurse, and you are the princess, she is not suitable for being called so." Wen Yuxin said a contradictory sentence on the side.
Jiang Xinyi turned her head to look at him and thought, why am I so childish? You didn't tell me how to call her, it was my fault, what else do you explain? She clearly has a prejudice against me.
Xiaohuai also noticed that Jiang Xinyi was angry, he raised his little face, looked at her flatteringly and smiled, Rao is Jiang Xinyi is willful, and he can't bear it, "How old is Xiaohuai?" She asked, tapping her finger at his little nose.
"Five years old." Xiaohuai replied shyly.
"Brother, how old are you?" Xiaohuai asked innocently, he still doesn't understand the definition of the word princess, maybe it's his brother's name!
"Well, my brother is eleven years older than you, tell me, how old is my brother this year?" Jiang Xinyi teased him.
Xiaohuai blinked, thought for a moment, and replied loudly; "Xiaohuai knows, my brother is sixteen years old."
"Wow, Xiaohuai is so smart, come and reward one, huh." Jiang Xinyi exaggeratedly kissed Xiaohuai again.
Mu Yun, who was still standing at the door, hesitated for a moment and walked out, followed by Fu Bo and Wen Yuxin. Jiang Xinyi pretended not to see it and continued to tease Xiaohuai.
Outside the door, Wen Yuxin walked to Mu Yun's side and comforted her; "A-Niang, she is this kind of character, don't take it to heart."
"Yu'er, what happened just now was actually my fault, somehow, when I saw her, I thought of Jiang Shiqian's thief." Mu Yun said apologetically.
"Auntie, don't say that, I'm the same, I don't know how to face her." Wen Yuxin sighed and said.
"Let's go inside, it's cold outside." Fauber said on the side.
The three of them walked into the house together, one big and one small inside were having fun, Xiaohuai stood in front of Jiang Xinyi, Jiang Xinyi was sitting, and the two of them waved their arms figuratively, "Two little bees, flying among the flowers, flying left, flying again, flying, bobo, flying, bobo." Jiang Xinyi's voice and Xiaohuai's child's voice, like a natural sound, hit the eardrums of the three people at the door, and when they boo, they really kissed mouth-to-mouth, and the three of them were dumbfounded.
"Brother, why don't you stop, let's continue playing." Xiaohuai pulled Jiang Xinyi's hand and said.
"Xiaohuai, come here, daddy hug." Wen Yuxin stretched out his hand to Xiaohuai and said.
"I don't want my dad to hug me, I want my brother to hug me." Xiaohuai threw himself into Jiang Xinyi's arms very shamelessly.
Wen Yuxin spread her hands and looked at Mu Yun, Duyun and Fu Bo were also wondering, how could this little guy fall in love with her so much, even his favorite prince and father had to stand aside!
The three of them sat down around the brazier again, Jiang Xinyi raised her head to meet Mu Yun's gaze, she obviously felt that there were a lot of bad things in the other party's eyes, and there were more doubts, Jiang Xinyi replied with a friendly smile.
"Why don't the old slave go and make you a bowl of egg noodles." Twilight asks tentatively, afraid that she will hold a grudge against her.
Mu Yun didn't mean anything else, just to see if she could treat Xiaohuai like this, whether it was disguised or sincere, Xiaohuai's happiness was the most important thing.
"Don't bother, I don't want to eat." Jiang Xinyi refused without thinking about it.
She didn't see Wen Yuxin's gloomy face, nor did she see Fu Bo's frowning brows, but she suddenly smiled at Mu Yun, who was a little uncomfortable, and said; "I'd like to ask you something, okay?"
"Princess, where is this, but I don't know what I want?" Mu Yun hurriedly asked.
"Can you give me a few of those sweet potatoes?" Jiang Xinyi embarrassedly pointed to the corner next to the door, she saw it just now, she didn't expect to see this thing, she loves to eat it the most, when she was in high school, the aunt who sold roasted sweet potatoes at the school gate was happy when she saw her.
"Sweet potatoes? Oh, the princess is talking about red melons, I thought I wanted something, you wait, I'm going to steam a pot. Mu Yun said with a sigh of relief.
"Don't steam it, I'll come by myself, hehe, I'm afraid it's the seed you left, I didn't dare to move, otherwise I can eat it now." Jiang Xinyi stood up with a mutter, put Xiaohuai into Wen Yuxin's arms, walked over by herself, squatted in front of the pile of sweet potatoes, picked a few small ones, and held them to the edge of the brazier, dug a pit on the edge of the charcoal fire with a shovel, put the sweet potatoes in it, and then cultivated the charcoal fire.
The three adults all looked at Jiang Xinyi as if they were watching the play, but Xiaohuai tried to break free of Wen Yuxin's arms, he still wanted to find this brother, but Wen Yuxin shook his head at him, hinting that no, he only obediently watched this brother wait for sweet potatoes on the edge of the brazier, but he didn't understand, that thing was not very delicious, why did his brother like it so much?
Jiang Xinyi didn't care about this, her attention was in the brazier, and after a short time, the fragrance of sweet potatoes floated out, it should be almost, Jiang Xinyi carefully dug out the sweet potatoes, and pinched them tentatively, the inside was soft, well, that is, cooked.
She didn't hide her gluttony at all, although she wanted to eat it with her mouth, but she still couldn't help but ask others, "It's okay to eat, which of you wants a piece?" ”
Fu Bo shook his head with a smile, Mu Yun hurriedly waved his hand, Wen Yuxin had several Tianlong on his forehead, and Xiaohuai shook his head without interest.
Neither? That's better, I'll eat it myself, hehe, Jiang Xinyi picked up a piece, held it on the palm of her hand, burned her left and right several times, gently patted the ash on it, tore open a piece and ate it into her mouth.
Mu Yun didn't expect her to eat her skin, and wanted to open her mouth to remind her, but she was half a beat slower, and people had already stuffed it into her mouth, so she had to cover her mouth and snicker, and then glanced at Wen Yuxin, he was much calmer.
Jiang Xinyi's hungry wolf eating made Fu Bo think of the famine, and Mu Yun remembered that she just said that she was not hungry, how does this look like not being hungry? She really wanted to pull Wen Yuxin outside and ask, is there a mistake, is this really Jiang Shiqian's daughter?
Well, it's so delicious, after a few pieces of sweet potatoes next to the brazier were wiped out, Jiang Xinyi picked up the shovel and pulled it in the brazier uneasily, afraid that there would be a pull, and after making sure that there was no fish that slipped through the net, she patted the ash on her hand with satisfaction, thinking how to sleep tonight?
"Alright, there's no charcoal fire in the basin, it's time to rest with me." Wen Yuxin handed the sleeping Xiaohuai to Mu Yun's hand and said to Jiang Xinyi.
Yes? Go to bed? Sleep with him? Jiang Xinyi was dumbfounded, but she didn't know how to refuse, she also noticed it outside just now, there didn't seem to be many rooms here, and it was estimated that there were no more guest rooms.
"I'm already awake, you go sleep by yourself, I'll go outside and watch the stars." Jiang Xinyi discussed incoherently with Wen Yuxin.
"It's going to be winter, it's cold, what stars to look at?" Wen Yuxin asked her with a wicked smile.
Jiang Xinyi blinked, walked to Twilight's side, and said with a hippie smile; "Why don't I sleep with you, I sleep very well, don't snore."
"My bed is narrow, not to mention a small locust." Mu Yun refused with a smile.
Just when Jiang Xinyi was depressed, Wen Yuxin walked up to her with a smile, took out a handkerchief to help her wipe the black marks around her lips, it was very funny, like a circle of beard, he estimated that if Jiang Xinyi changed her identity, Mu Yun and Fu Bo would have been unable to help laughing out loud.
"Don't embarrass A-Niang, don't worry, I won't touch you, you won't have no confidence in yourself, right?" Wen Yuxin said evilly in her ear.
"Hmph, who's afraid of you." Jiang Xinyi pushed him away and ran out.
"Looks like I was right to bring you here." Wen Yuxin said to herself.
