Hengyu asked An to salute, and Mrs. Xiao smiled and took her hand, and asked with concern as she walked out, "After drinking the tranquilizing soup last night, can you still sleep peacefully?" ”

Mrs. Xiao's enthusiasm and concern were undisguised, although Heng Yu was not sure why for a while, she also spoke obediently: "I slept well, thank you Mrs. for your concern." ”

Lowering her eyes, she saw the jade plaque tied in front of her.

Could it be that Mrs. Xiao recognized that this was the eldest princess's thing, so she treated her differently?

Or...... It can't be because of her, right?

She thought in her heart, and her face didn't show anything.

Outside the gate of the Hou Mansion, the carriage has been prepared.

There was a man standing next to the carriage.

The early morning sun shone on the young man in the dark tunic robe, which made his figure more and more majestic, and the contours of his expressionless face were deep and clear, and there was a sense of undesecrated majesty honed on the battlefield. When he stood there quietly like this, it was as if a god had descended into the world in a trance.

Hengyu saw it in his eyes, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart - having a good face is really taking advantage. When she looked at him now, she didn't even think that he would be a rebellious person, but more and more in tune with those gods who responded to their needs.

Being looked at by her like this, Xiao Mu was uncomfortable, and Yin Hai's sentence suddenly flashed in his mind - the one who should be most wary of is this.

Staring at him like this three times and twice, could it be that he really deliberately wanted to use some beauty tricks on him?

Thinking of this, Xiao Mu's body was slightly tense, and his heart was even more guarded.

"Early in the morning, I don't know how to put on a cloak."

Mrs. Xiao glanced at her son with a smile, and then took Hengyu into the carriage.

The two carriages walked slowly, stopped outside the Jingshui Building, and the group went up to the second floor and sat down in the private room near the window.

Jingshuilou's breakfast was very exquisite, and Mrs. Xiao said a few words to Hengyu from time to time while using it. Xiao Mu was used to marching and fighting, and he was not used to eating slowly like this, but he still tried to slow down his chopsticks as much as possible, and ate quietly on the side, rarely talking.

He didn't take the initiative to talk, but he couldn't bear to be pulled by his mother: "Ah Heng, when Jingshi sent you back last night, you didn't meet any more eye-opening assassins, right?" ”

Xiao Mu was silent for a moment.

After half a meal, my mother's title for Ji painter has changed.

"No, I didn't." Everywhere he spoke, Heng Yu couldn't help but look at Xiao Mu: "Thank you, General Xiao, for sending me back last night." ”

"Since his father has an old relationship with Mr. Qinghan, our two families can be regarded as old friends, and there is no need for General Xiao to shout in a loud voice, it seems to be raw for no reason!" Mrs. Xiao glanced at her son, her eyes were full of smiles, and when she was going to speak, she only heard her son speak in front of her-

"That being the case, Master Ji calls me Uncle Shi." Xiao Mu said expressionlessly.

“……？”

Heng Yu was stunned and looked at the other party, only to feel that the other party's body seemed to be surrounded by a momentum that rejected people thousands of miles away.

So, is this Uncle Sheng to cut off anything else to do with her?

Heng Yu blinked his eyes, smiled, and said very cooperatively: "Yes, Uncle Xiao Shi." ”

This uncle shouted obediently and respectfully, as if the opposite side was really an authentic middle-aged man.

Mrs. Xiao was simply stupid.

How can this be...... Suddenly, the relationship between the elders and the younger generations has developed!

This stinky boy, isn't his brain a big hole?!

"What are you shouting Uncle Shi, you are only twenty-three years old this year, Ah Heng is seventeen years old, and half a month is the eighteenth birthday, and the difference is only five years old, you don't want to take advantage of others!" Mrs. Xiao resisted the urge to strangle her son, only glanced at him, turned her face and looked at Hengyu with a smile: "Don't listen to his nonsense, just call him Brother Jingshi in the future!" ”

Xiao Mu: ......

What kind of terrible name is this that can only come up with after reading too much in the book?

Under Mrs. Xiao's expectant gaze, Hengyu looked at Xiao Mu, and saw that she was full of defensiveness and rejection, so that she thought of the big black dog at home for no reason, so she shouted understandingly: "Brother Jingshi——"

The girl's voice is crisp and pleasant, like a spring stream refreshing, and like a breeze with the fragrance of peach blossoms in March.

"......" Xiao Mu was shocked for no reason, and silently clenched his chopsticks - he had never been so tight on the battlefield.

After only a few days of acquaintance, how did she get out of her mouth?

Facing the girl's bright, frank eyes with a smile, General Xiao staggered his gaze again.

Mrs. Xiao laughed contentedly: "Yes, yes, this is pleasing to the ear!" ”

Xiao Mu only felt that he couldn't stay any longer.

And at this moment, a loud scolding suddenly came from downstairs outside the window-

"What are you doing in broad daylight!"

It's a girl's voice.

Gigi's voice, to be exact.

Heng Yu asked Ji Ji to go to the neighborhood to buy candied fruit, and he must have just come back at this time.

Hearing the sound of the dispute outside, Hengyu got up: "Madam, I'll go downstairs and take a look." ”

Mrs. Xiao nodded, the female envoy pushed the door of the private room open, and Xiao Mu looked at Meng Dazhu, who was guarding the door: "Go and see what happened outside." ”

"Yes."

Meng Dazhu strode downstairs with Hengyu.

"I'll let you let go of this lady!"

"It's a yellow-haired girl! Get out of the way, get out of the way! ”

There were already a lot of onlookers gathered downstairs, and as soon as Ji Ji saw his own girl, he hurriedly pointed to a man and said angrily: "Girl, I saw him chasing this lady and beating him, and I don't know where to take people!" ”

Only then did Heng Yu see the situation clearly.

The man pointed by Gigi was about forty years old, wearing a patched coarse cotton robe, with a slightly hunched back, a mustache and a high face with cheekbones, full of ferocity and impatience.

He was tugging on the wrist of a woman, who didn't know whether she had tripped or been injured, and she fell to the ground half-supported, dragged by the man.

The woman was thin, with her hair in a messy bun wrapped in a blue cloth, a sallow complexion, and bruises on her face.

Or because there were so many onlookers, the woman was in tears, her head was lowered and she barely dared to raise her face, and her excessively thin figure trembled slightly.

"Dare to run next time, see if Lao Tzu doesn't break your legs!"

As the man spoke, he kicked her again.

This behavior made Hengyu frown: "Do you know that beating people is to be arrested and taken to the government?" ”

"Hitting?" The man sneered, looked at the onlookers, and said disdainfully and smugly: "She's not a person!" It's just a lowly official slave! ”

Heng Yu pursed the corners of his mouth slightly.

It's really fatal to wait for me to be low to the dust on weekdays, and finally seize the opportunity to trample on and humiliate the disgusting face of others.

She said coldly: "Even if she is cheap, she is not something you can kill at will." ”

Although Dasheng treats the untouchables like ants, and the lowly slaves and maids can even be bought and sold at will, if they are killed for no reason, if someone really reports to the yamen, the government will not punish them at all.

"But she is not only a lowly member, but also a daughter-in-law assigned to me by the official media yamen!" The man's expression became more and more arrogant: "Since I married back, that's my second child's thing!" If you can't fight when you marry her, then what will I do if I marry her! ”

As he spoke, he smiled at the onlookers around him and asked, "Do you think that's the truth?" We can't beat others, can't we beat our own mother-in-law! ”
