Chapter Eighty-Six: Sweet Dreams
The ceremony cannot be abolished, and Mrs. Tai has not exempted today's morning and dusk, so it is necessary to go to Chaohui Courtyard to ask for peace as usual.
On the way, Hua Jin told his brother everything that had just happened in Hua Wei's house.
Hua Chen frowned and listened, and fell into deep thought.
It wasn't until the two brothers and sisters entered the Chaohui Courtyard that Hua Chen raised his head and stared closely at the eight carved wooden doors.
Suddenly, the door was pushed open, revealing a corner of the dark red brocade robe.
Hua Chen's brows furrowed even tighter, and he moved his steps to protect Hua Jin's body.
Seeing the two brothers and sisters, Zhao Xin's steps unconsciously accelerated, but thinking of the series of strange things that happened yesterday, his steps unconsciously paused.
Hua Chen and Hua Jin walked as usual and greeted them without fear.
Especially Hua Chen, before he walked up to Zhao Xin, he raised his hand and fanned it with his sleeve, as if there was some unpleasant smell around.
Seeing this provocative action, Zhao Xin's eyebrows wrinkled into a Sichuan character, the corners of his mouth were barely picked, and he stepped forward cheekily and said, "Fourth brother, sister Jin'er." ”
Hua Chen fanned his sleeve again before taking a step forward, "Shizi." ”
Zhao Xin relied on the advantage of height to stretch his neck and lean behind Hua Chen.
For a person like Zhao Xin, whose skin is thicker than the bark of a tree, it is not possible to hide.
Hua Jin walked out from behind Hua Chen generously, lowered his eyelids slightly and said: "I heard that the prince is leaving, Hua Jin has come to say goodbye, I hope the prince has a safe journey and a comfortable New Year." ”
Zhao Xin's eyes couldn't help but look at Hua Jin, only to feel that the blood in his whole body kept rolling, which made him inexplicably excited.
Hua Chen clenched his fists...... But he saw Hua Jin raise his head and look at Zhao Xin with a sneering gaze, "Shizi, have you ever heard what Hua Jin said?" ”
Zhao Xin was stunned for a moment, and nodded again and again, "I heard it, I heard it, I heard it, I had a safe and comfortable New Year." By the time he could say anything, the little man had already walked towards the main room.
It's just that the eyes he saw just now, the eyes he couldn't understand, were really projected from the eyes of a little girl under the age of twelve? What makes him a little scared?
"Have a safe journey and enjoy the New Year." Zhao Xin muttered, a little reluctant, and had to take steps to leave the inner courtyard.
I can't help but think in my heart: wait until the end of the New Year, wait until the end of the New Year, and he will come back.
He couldn't help but curse: That damn maid, let her die and really die, otherwise how could he have to go home to avoid bad luck.
Thinking of what happened yesterday in the flower warming room, I beat my chest and regretted it, but I couldn't help but feel that I was really bad luck recently, and it seems that I want to ask my mother to ask my mother to do something to drive away bad luck.
…………
Hua Jin entered the warm pavilion of the landlord of Chaohui Courtyard, and Mrs. Tai smiled lovingly at her and her brother as she did yesterday, "It's cold outside, come and warm up." "It's like nothing happened in the morning.
Hua Jin also suppressed his emotions and stepped forward with his brother to salute, "Grandmother." ”
Before he could raise his head, he heard a sigh beside him, "Hey...... The little four and five girls are the most worrying about me in this family. "I actually played the family card again.
Hua Chen raised his head, slightly hooked the corners of his lips, and looked at Mrs. Tai, "Grandmother, my grandson has grown up, I will take care of myself, and I will also protect my sister and prevent her from being bullied by anyone." ”
As soon as these words came out, Mrs. Tai was slightly stunned, and then said with a smile: "Our brother Chen has grown up sensible and knows how to protect his sister." Your brothers and sisters are also worthy of beating their mother's womb in one place, not only breaking the bones and tendons, but even the heart is also connected. ”
Hua Jin didn't care what Mrs. Tai said at this time, she only felt that there was a warm current, which spread from the bottom of her heart to her whole body little by little.
After quietly being happy for a moment, she met Mrs. Tai's gaze and slightly hooked the corners of her lips, "Grandmother, it is right for my brother to protect my sister, just like grandmother also protects us." ”
Mrs. Tai's smile froze on her face for a moment, but it quickly deepened her smile and nodded, "It's Zhengli'er." He retracted his smile and sighed lightly, "Now that your second room is in an eventful time, my grandmother really can't bear to let you take care of this mess." Grandmother feels sorry for you, and hopes that your second family can live in harmony and beauty, and it can be regarded as worthy......" There was infinite sadness in her eyes.
Is this intended to persuade her to voluntarily give up her stewardship with emotion and reason?
No!
Hua Jin shouted vividly: "Grandmother, grandmother," and looked at Mrs. Tai with a smile, "My sister is going to live at home for a while this time, if my grandmother is afraid that her granddaughter will work hard, it is better to let my sister help her granddaughter take care of it together!" ”
Mrs. Tai frowned invisibly, and before she could speak, she heard Hua Chen's echoing voice, "Sister, this idea is very good!" ”
Her hand hidden in the sleeve of her green velvet satin jacket rubbed the handkerchief fiercely, and she raised her head to look at her brother and sister who were looking at each other and smiling, and there seemed to be a strong hatred in her eyes.
Just for a moment, she put away the emotions in her eyes and replied with a smile: "Okay! ”
…………
Zhao Xin's convoy back to Leling consisted of three black-painted flat-topped carriages and eight horseback retinues.
The other carriage was left in Zhangfu for backup.
At this time, the coachman raised his whip, and the horse's hooves made a "clang" sound when he stepped on the ground, and the carriage moved forward slowly.
Even the slight "squeak" and slight shaking of the carriage failed to pull Zhao Xin's thoughts back.
He repeatedly muttered the two words that Hua Jin had just told him: Have a safe journey and a comfortable New Year.
couldn't help but murmur again: "Fifth sister is really caring!" ”
When the carriage was out of the city gate, he dozed off and had a sweet dream......
…………
Qin Jian'an took more than a dozen of his former brothers and hurried to a necessary road from Dezhou to Leling.
Not far from the entrance, there happened to be several dirt slopes where he and his brothers could hide.
Qin Jian'an used to be righteous when he was in the dart game, and these brothers were born and died, and when they heard that there was such a deal, they responded to it.
But when the fourth young master found him a few days ago, he was even a little reluctant, although he used to be a dart master, although it was dangerous, but he was also a serious businessman, but now he let him do the business of blocking the road and robbing.
I can listen to the fourth young master say that the people they want to teach for a while have more than a dozen lives in their hands, and those lives are all just ten or eight years old little girl, who died miserably.
Thinking of the young daughter in his family, Qin Jian'an did not hesitate to respond to this matter, not to mention that the fourth young master gave his brothers a generous reward.
set up an ambush on the ground, and Qin Jian'an instructed the dozen or so brothers, "Don't forget to cover your face for a while, and be careful." ”
Seeing that the brothers had all agreed, he began to distribute again, "A few of you hide behind those two dirt slopes, and a few of you hide behind these dirt slopes with me." ”
As soon as he hid himself, he heard the sound of hooves in the distance......
