When did the Tang clan leave, Meng Yuxuan didn't know at all. Later, Aunt Lin came and said that Tang was carried home, and Hui'er Niang followed Tang back to her parents' house with a puppy on her back. Hui'er, who was weak at home, was ignored, and Xiao Chen scolded in the yard for a long time, scolding Tang and Hui'er Niang dozens of times, until the saliva dried up.

When such a thing happened, Aunt Lin didn't draw a line with her, and kindly told her to be careful of the Tang family. Tang didn't look like a woman, but he was one of the most muddy people within a radius of several miles. She was quite beautiful when she was young, and she followed the acrobatic class to the north and south, and met many gangsters. The people who offended her before didn't end well, but now that Meng Yuxuan has provoked her, she said that she will not let go of their family.

"What kind of big waves can a country woman turn?" Shangguan Huan, who was standing at the door, said calmly.

Aunt Lin shuddered. She pulled Meng Yuxuan's sleeve and said in her ear, "This man...... I love face. He is now wounded again, and his right hand is afraid that it will be difficult to heal. In the future, if he says something that he doesn't like, you can let it go, and it will be regarded as coaxing the child. You are stubborn, don't come with him. ”

Flutter! Meng Yuxuan sneered.

Aunt Lin obviously regarded what Shangguan Huan said as crazy words, so she quietly told her this.

She glanced at Shangguan Huan opposite. I don't know if it's an illusion, the man's face is extremely ugly. Could it be that he heard what Aunt Lin said?

"Auntie, I know." Meng Yuxuan didn't dare to stimulate the man anymore. She held back a smile and sent Aunt Lin away. "Thank you, auntie, for this trip."

"Our folks, don't be so polite. By the way, you're going to sell hawthorn cakes tomorrow, do you want us to help? Anyway, Feng'er and I don't have anything to do. Aunt Lin stood at the gate of the courtyard and said to Meng Yuxuan: "Don't take today's matter to heart. The things you said about are not something that ordinary people can afford to eat, and no one should commit this taboo. ”

"Thank you, auntie. I don't have much to prepare tomorrow, so I don't have to trouble my aunt and sister-in-law Feng'er. Meng Yuxuan smiled.

"You girl is so polite. Let's go! Tell us if there's anything useful. Don't be polite with us. Aunt Lin smiled lovingly: "Have you been tired lately?" Look at your little face, which was already small, but now it's thinner. Although it is important to take care of your household, you must also take care of your own body. You fall, who will take care of Xi'er and your head of the house? ”

"That's what my aunt said. I'm going to keep an eye on it, and I'm not going to let myself fall. Meng Yuxuan was embarrassed by Aunt Lin. She hasn't done anything lately, and it feels like she is the best wife in the world when she says from her mouth.

Finally sent away Aunt Lin, who likes to nag, Meng Yuxuan thought about what she had to do tomorrow. The first thing to do was to sell the hawthorn cake, and if you could sell it for some money, buy some medicine bags from Shangguan Huan and his son. The second thing is to buy some hatched chicks and raise them back, so that they can eat eggs every day in the future, which is also an opportunity to supplement nutrition for Shangguanxi, who is growing up.

"I've lost weight." The slender legs blocked in front of Meng Yuxuan, and the man's deep voice sounded overhead.

Meng Yuxuan looked up and saw Shangguan Huan's narrow gaze. By the time she wanted to take a closer look, he had already gone into the house. Meng Yuxuan looked blankly in the direction he left, and said to herself, "What does this mean?" What the hell is this man trying to say? ”

"Daddy means that you have lost weight, and he is very distressed." Xi'er's good baby raised an innocent smile in front of the door. "Mother, Daddy likes you very much! He cares about you. ”

"......" Meng Yuxuan was helpless.

Looking at the little guy's sincere eyes, even she couldn't help but believe it. However, she still has reason, and she still has wisdom. She would be foolish to believe what he said.

"Alright, don't mess around. My mother still has a lot of things to do. If you really want to help, help me wash these hawthorns! Meng Yuxuan patted Shangguan Xi's head and said.

"Good. I'll make sure I'm going to wash it clean. After Shangguan Xi finished speaking excitedly, he turned around and saw Shangguan Huan walking out of the door and shouted, "Dad, where are you going?" Don't you accompany Xi'er to wash the hawthorn? ”

Shangguan Huan changed his clothes and looked ready to go out. When Shangguan Xi stopped him, he had already walked to the door and stopped when he heard Shangguan Xi's words.

He looked back at Shangguan Xi and said lightly: "You wash it!" Daddy is going to go out. You don't have to wait for me to eat. If you come back, you will do so before dark. If you don't come back, you'll come back tomorrow. ”

"Your wounds are not healed yet, be careful with your wounds." After Meng Yuxuan finished speaking, she didn't look at Shangguan Huan's reaction and pulled Shangguan Xi into the kitchen.

waited for Shangguan Huan's figure to disappear before she poked her head out. took a deep breath, patted his chest and said, "Did your father kill too many prey, why do you feel so scary?" ”

"How scary?" One whispered in her ear.

Meng Yuxuan froze for a moment, took a few steps back in a panic, looked at the man in front of her vigilantly, and said unhappily, "Aren't you leaving?" How did you come back again? ”

"I'm not leaving." The man said lightly: "You just looked ahead, didn't you notice that I didn't move?" ”

"Yes, yes, I didn't pay attention. So you're staying to mock me? Meng Yuxuan glared at him unhappily.

"I just wanted to tell you. If I don't come back in the evening, remember to take care of the stream. Shangguan Huan glanced at Shangguan Xi.

"That's as it should be. Needless to say, I'll take care of Xi'er too. Meng Yuxuan nodded, smiled softly at Shangguanxi and said, "I'll make you something to eat tonight." If your father doesn't come back, we won't keep it for him, so that he won't be able to eat and he will regret it. ”

"Hmm. Listen to my mother. Shangguan Xi stuck out his tongue at Shangguan Huan.

Shangguan Huan rubbed Shangguan Xi's hair and said in a low voice, "Wait for me to come back." ”

"Dad, you and your mother really have a tacit understanding, you both like to touch my hair." Shangguan Xi curled his mouth with a look of displeasure. "If you touch it again, you'll become bald."

A smile flashed in Shangguan Huan's eyes.

In just a few days, the little guy who always hid in the corner and secretly cried seemed to have suddenly grown up a lot. All thanks to the woman who was willing to stay.

Shangguan Huan would leave the village for a few days every once in a while, in the past, he would ask Aunt Lin to take care of Shangguan Xi, but now that he has Meng Yuxuan at home, he is more relieved. In the past, even if people left, they were still worried about Shangguanxi. Now I know that he will be well taken care of, and there is no care, and there is only that unfinished thing in his heart.

"Cry if you want to!" Meng Yuxuan stood next to Shangguan Xi, patted his slender shoulder, and gently comforted.

"I'm a man, so I don't cry! Last year, my father was scratched by a blind bear, and there was a big blood hole in his chest, and the doctor said that it couldn't be cured, but he didn't survive it? I want to be a strong man like my father. Dad said, a man bleeds without tears. Besides, it's not like my dad won't come back, he'll be back with me soon. What do I have to cry about? I still have a mother! My mother will also accompany me. Shangguan Xi swept it with his sleeves, and all his snot and tears were wiped clean by his sleeves.

"Yes, my mother is here! Don't cry! Meng Yuxuan wiped away the tears from the corners of Shangguanxi's eyes with a handkerchief.

That night, Shangguan Huan did not return home.

Meng Yuxuan finished her work and was about to go back to her room to rest, but found a small black shadow shrinking at the door.

She illuminated the candlestick in her hand and saw Shangguan Xi's tearful little face. She immediately put down the things in her hand, helped Shangguan Xi up, and said, "What's wrong?" ”

"Mother, can I sleep with you? I'm afraid. Shangguan Xi pulled the corner of Meng Yuxuan's clothes.

"Good. Come on in! Meng Yuxuan pulled Shangguanxi into the house and helped him wash his face and feet.

"Itchy! Ha ha...... Don't touch ...... It's so itchy. Shangguan Xi, who was originally sleepy, was made to laugh by Meng Yuxuan.

Meng Yuxuan grabbed his foot and wiped the water stains on it. She laughed and said, "What are you hiding?" There is still water on your feet, so be careful of the cold. ”

"It's itchy! Mother, don't touch it! Shangguan Xi laughed weakly.

The stars at night show their unique beauty. In this silent night, the light of the stars and the silver moonlight shine on the head of the bed, reflecting the little face on the bed.

Meng Yuxuan leaned on Shangguan Creek and fell asleep at some point. Falling asleep, a dangerous aura woke Meng Yuxuan from her sleep suddenly. She opened her eyes and looked sharply at the other side.

"It's me." A familiar voice soothes a grumpy someone. "Keep sleeping!"

Meng Yuxuan recognized the owner of the voice, and said with a sigh of relief: "It's you!" Why did you come back so late? Come back, come back, what are you doing here without resting? Xi'er had already fallen asleep, and she was not afraid to scare him. ”

"I ...... Probably going to be away for a while. Can you help me take care of Xi'er? Shangguan Huan said suddenly.

"What do you mean?" Meng Yuxuan sat up and looked at the man opposite suspiciously. "You're leaving? Won't you tell Xi'er? Although Xi'er likes to follow me, the person he relies on the most has always been you! He'll freak out if you let him know you're leaving and don't know when you'll be back. ”

"I know." Shangguan Huan frowned and said irritably: "So, you have to take good care of him and let him adapt to the days when I am not there earlier." You tell him and I'll come back to pick him up. ”

"Did something happen? You value Xi'er so much, if there is nothing important, you will not leave, right? Meng Yuxuan said: "What is it that makes you have to leave?" ”

"Those things aren't for you to take care of. You just need to take care of the stream. When I come back, I'll give you everything you want. Shangguan Huan took out a jade pendant from his arms. Keep this thing in good place, and don't let others find out about its existence. If you really can't get by, take the jade pendant and find someone, and he will help you. ”

Meng Yuxuan instinctively felt that this jade pendant was a hot potato. She didn't want to take this thing, but she couldn't refuse Shangguan Huan, who looked at her earnestly.

"Hey......" Meng Yuxuan wanted to say something, but when she turned around, she found that there was no figure in front of her. Shangguan Huan just explained a few words casually and ran away.
