The sky was like stars, Xi Yan was still wearing a thin shirt, crouching in front of the desk to deal with unfinished business, and An Ruofei was sitting beside him.

The candle flame on the lampstand was bright enough, and An Ruofei leaned under the lamp, embroidering a handkerchief very intently.

Zishi's drums have sounded, but they don't have the intention of resting, since the daytime to the temple to pray for blessings, Xi Yan told her about the Hanshui Villa, An Ruofei is very much looking forward to it, although Xi Yan is not very anxious, but he has to follow her intentions, every day to light the lamp and boil oil to deal with business.

No heir, has always been a scab in her heart, although Xi Yan doesn't care, but An Ruofei knows that she is his only wife, if she can't even give birth to a child for him, don't say that the officials outside, even herself, can't accept it.

An Ruofei untied the embroidered handkerchief from the embroidered bandage, put the pattern under the lamp and looked at it carefully, and then handed it to him.

"Look, I saw that the piece you used a few days ago was a little old, so I hurried to embroider a new one for you."

Xi Yan put the pen aside, smiled and took the square handkerchief, which was a very elegant pale green silk cloth, and only embroidered a clump of green bamboo in the lower left corner, which was in line with her temperament, and she liked it very much.

"With such fine stitches, you have been learning from Arou for the past two years...... It's a lot of progress. ”

An Ruofei smiled, and then snatched the handkerchief back from his hand: "Don't talk about what you have, look at your excerpts, I'm done...... Let's go to Coldwater Villa as soon as possible. ”

"This woman is eccentric, and it is really incomparable, and she has no children now, so she dislikes me so much. If I really have a child, I'm afraid I won't even have a place for my pillow. ”

An Ruofei blushed when he said it, it was rare for him to have such frivolous times in the past, but since he became a parent, his words such frivolous became more and more.

Although he was a little shy in his heart, An Ruofei still pretended to be disgusted and said: "It's getting more and more serious, if you still say this if you have a child in the future, I won't allow you to enter the room, and save it from bringing our children to the rescue." ”

Xi Yan still smiled at her here, closed the fold with a "snap", stretched out his arm and grabbed the person to himself, and exhaled softly in her ear, making An Ruofei soft and weak.

"When you say that, I don't want to go to Coldwater Villa...... Save having a little thing to compete for favor. ”

He actually said such a thing as competing for favor, An Ruofei was so angry that he beat him with his hand, but he was pinched by his wrist.

"How can you afford a good year? Madam, how are we talking at night? ”

Xi Yan secretly thought to himself: "If you have a child in the future, there will not be so many good times, while no one is bothered, it is important to hurry up and do business!" ”

couldn't allow An Ruofei to speak at all, Xi Yan picked her up horizontally, and the next moment, the person was lying on the bed.

……

In the early morning of autumn, the frost and dew are so thick that they cannot be melted.

In front of the Xifu Gate in Anding City, dozens of horses were neatly arranged, clustered around a spacious carriage.

After several days of careful preparation, Xi Yan still decided to take An Ruofei to Hanshui Villa, not only to ask Zhao Hengyu for the elixir to treat the wounds, but also to find a doctor to regulate An Ruofei's body.

Even Xi Yan can't say clearly, in his heart, which of these two things is more important?

The envoy had already set off three days ago, and Xi Yun took people to Hanshui Villa to wait first, so that his group's visit would not be so abrupt.

The purple horse was empty, swaying and following the car, and the owner of the horse was lazily leaning on the cushion in the car.

An Ruofei peeled a citrus and fed a petal to Xi Yan's mouth: "You don't like to ride in the car, so in order to accompany me, you are willing to leave your horse empty." ”

"Why compare yourself to a horse?" Xi Yan took the idle book she held before going out, and couldn't help but tease her, "Since you are traveling, how can there be any reason to leave you in the car?" If it spreads out, it will be said to be incomprehensible. ”

"You, you're so understanding......"

An Ruofei is indeed from the heart, no matter what he says or does, Xi Yan can accurately guess his intentions, and then make the most reassuring and comfortable response, even if he only vaguely mentioned twice that he wanted to go to Hanshui Villa, and Xi Yan immediately began to prepare, and even when Xi Yan told himself that he was going out early this morning, An Ruofei simply thought that he was just traveling around Anding City.

In a short time, the guards stepped on the back of their horses one by one, they were all one of the best secret guards, although there were not many people, but they were enough to resist most dangers. Let them guard him and An Ruofei by his side, and Xi Yan is more at ease.

The crisp sound of the whip sounded, and the carriage slowly moved forward, all the way out of Anding City, without any sign of the government, and passers-by only thought that it was a rich and noble family traveling.

can not only do business, but also observe the people's feelings along the way, Xi Yan prefers this method.

The charcoal fire in the small furnace in the car was blazing, An Ruofei took out a spoonful of tea leaves, threw it into the pot, and after a while, the sound of hot air opening the lid of the pot spread in the car.

An Ruofei was not in a hurry to pour out the tea, but played against Xi Yan, who twisted a sunspot with two fingers and fell into the chessboard first. An Ruofei thought for a while, then carried a white piece and landed on the other side of the chessboard.

Although there were some bumps in the car, the chess pieces would not be scattered at all, and after careful inspection, An Ruofei found that the chessboard and chess pieces were made of magnets, and he was secretly wondering who had such a delicate mind, but Xi Yan had already opened his mouth to solve his doubts.

"When I first arrived in Lingjiang, the Ji family in Anding City spent a lot of effort to build it for me in order to please me, but over the years, I have used it no more than five times."

I wanted to ask why I had been accumulating dust for thousands of years, but I heard Xi Yan and said: "I was young and vigorous at the time, and I had to ride a horse wherever I went, even if it was windy and rainy, the Ji family's flattery, but it was the horse's fart that slapped the horse's leg." At first, I always thought that the car was too dull, but now it seems that this car is still good. ”

"What's in it for you?"

"For example...... Go to bed. Xi Yan picked up a chess piece and tapped rhythmically on the chessboard, "Spacious is always spacious, resting in this car is not much worse than the bed in the house." ”

For some reason, it was a normal word, but An Ruofei felt that there were other meanings coming out of his mouth, and he couldn't help but blush again.

When he was still in a trance, Xi Yan had already poured the tea, flipped over the chess table again, revealing the side without patterns, turned around and took out some refreshments from the cabinet, and placed them in front of himself and An Ruofei one by one.

"Let's have some snacks," Xi Yan put a plate of goose fat rolls closest to her, "You don't usually go on a diet, but why are you always so thin?" ”

An Ruofei didn't live up to his wishes, he thought that everything should be simple when traveling, but who knew that he would move the best of the house to this car, if he let those old and pedantic officials know, I am afraid that he will have to say that he is not.

As early as when they first got married, several officials persuaded Xi Yan to take concubines, but Xi Yan, who was usually quite mild, did not give in on this matter, and after disposing of a few people who made too much trouble with the momentum of thunder, no one dared to mention it.

The carriage walked forward steadily, and although the refreshments were small, Xi Yan had prepared a lot, and she had tasted each of them.

After a few cups of tea, An Ruofei was already full of food, and before he could say a few words, he fell asleep in his arms. Xi Yanfu picked up the book again, hugged her with one hand, and read it carefully with the other.

Juniper was burning in the incense burner on the carpet, but Xi Yan only felt that no matter how good the spices were, they couldn't compare to the sweet fragrance she breathed.
