The Zhuangzi on the hill closed the door.

Mrs. Yongning Hou and the eldest princess of Pingyang sat in the main hall and discussed things in a low voice.

The important matter of sending the edict fell on Qin Luan and the other three, but the people who stayed in Zhuangzi for the time being were not just waiting quietly.

They have to make other preparations and arrangements.

As much as possible, give more support to those who are at the Flying Gate Gate, to those who are on the road.

Qin Yuan couldn't participate, squatting in the yard with a dignified face.

Qin Miao walked over and squatted down beside her.

"It's only three people, does it matter?" Qin Miao said.

Qin Yuan cupped his cheeks and glanced at his younger brother.

Sister and brother have a heart?

She's thinking about it, too.

Qin Miao continued: "The eldest sister didn't bring any money, and the eldest brother didn't bring Ah Qing. The eldest sister can't fight, and the eldest brother pretends to be sick, but it looks too scary, won't it really affect his skills? ”

Qin Yuan's eyes blinked.

Qin Miao said again: "I don't know how about the handlebar style?" Can it be as powerful as Lao Zhang? ”

Qin Yuan's eyes lit up, and he wanted to talk to his younger brother well.

"Isn't that what you're thinking? Did I guess right? Qin Miao asked, "If you want me to say, it's useless for you to think about it." I really saw through my identity, no matter how good my skills were, I couldn't resist the crowd, so I might as well hope that the officers and soldiers were blind, and I would believe whatever was written on the citation. ”

Qin Yuan: ......

What kind of heart is clear, it is clearly to see her jokes.

This stinky brother will be beaten up sooner or later!

Qin Yuan stood up, did not discuss the strengths and weaknesses with his younger brother, put on the frame, and practiced boxing.

Qin Miao didn't move, still squatting on the ground.

He was actually very worried and uneasy.

In the past, he always felt that there were many benefits to being young.

The youngest son and grandson are all held in the palm of their hands at anyone's house, and they are born to take advantage.

Own too.

His grandfather praised him for his cleverness, and his grandmother praised him for his sweetness.

The second sister shouted and beat him all day long, but she was not really willing to beat him down.

Not to mention the eldest brother, he protects him in everything.

However, it wasn't until today that Qin Miao discovered that being young was really not a good thing.

He doesn't grow tall, and his strength is like that, he is the best among his peers, but when facing "adults", what can he be considered a little child?

If he can grow up a little more, the same age as his eldest brother, then he can invite Ying to go with him.

It is possible to protect the mother.

And not as it is now, only worries.

Just as he was thinking about it, suddenly, a sharp rooster crow came from the direction of the kitchen behind him.

Qin Yuan looked at Qin Miao.

Qin Miao got up and ran to the kitchen.

Chickens are being slaughtered there.

Zhuangzi raised a lot of poultry and fish.

With so many people staying, Ari steward instructed the kitchen to cook some good dishes.

Seeing the two sisters and brothers passing over, the cook smiled happily: "What's so beautiful here, stand far away, don't splash blood." ”

Of course, they are not afraid of blood, and they have seen chickens and ducks killed many times.

If you really want to say how new this thing is, it can't be.

It's just that there is something pressing in my heart, and it is not a taste to be left and right, rather than holding back and thinking nonsense, it is better to watch the chef kill the chicken.

A knife cut the throat, and the chicken's blood flowed out and dripped into the small bowl prepared underneath.

Qiaoyu came to the kitchen to get some hot water to prepare tea, and when she saw the two of them standing here, she saluted.

Qin Yuan asked casually, "Will you kill chickens?" ”

Qiaoyu was stunned by the question.

Qin Miao also stared at Qin Yuan.

Qin Yuan touched the tip of his nose.

It's not curiosity, she really asked casually.

After asking, I remembered that the girl next to the old lady of the Guogong Mansion was nominally a maid, but in fact she was the old lady's own daughter.

It was obviously inappropriate for her to ask people like this.

Qiaoyu replied honestly: "No." ”

"I'm asking nonsense," Qin Yuan said hurriedly, "It's normal if it won't be, and I won't either." ”

Qiaoyu laughed.

She knew that Qin Yuan didn't mean anything else, but she also knew that it wasn't normal.

The girl from Houfu won't, which is not unusual, but she was born in the market......

At this moment, imagining that the girls in the market should know very little, she actually knows very little.

She had never been to the stove, she rarely washed clothes twice a year, and she was studying when girls her neighbors were the same age or even younger than her were working to support the family.

Her grandmother taught her to read and write, and her father, who was a dart master, would teach her the simplest kung fu when he was at home.

My mother often said that my father earned more money than others by running darts, and that his family was more comfortable, so he could hire an old mother to help him, and he didn't need his daughter to do hard work.

She grew up in a relatively well-to-do family, and was also envied by other girls.

Later, she was introduced to the old lady to do things because she had studied.

Qiaoyu never thought that there was anything wrong with this.

Until this time out of Beijing.

Bit by bit, something is wrong, and it comes together.

It's the same again.

When she was young, she really didn't do any rough work.

Qiaoyu returned to the house.

This Zhuangzi looks simple and not big on the outside, but there are actually a lot of wings inside.

The old lady sat by the window, carefully wiping the harp she had brought out with a handkerchief.

Qiaoyu poured water with her.

The old lady took the teacup and took a sip.

Then, she took a deep look at Qiaoyu.

"I've been wondering what I'm going to do with you." The old lady suddenly opened her mouth.

Qiaoyu's heart thumped.

Along the way, she had a lot to ask, and kept telling herself that the timing was not right.

Now, the old lady took the initiative to say it, but she didn't know why, and she didn't dare to listen.

"I, the slave maid ......," Qiaoyu bit her lower lip, "Can you tell the slave maid more stories about the Jewel Guard?" Slaves and maids haven't heard much of ......"

When she was in Beijing, she only heard it once or twice occasionally.

The old lady didn't go into details, and she couldn't ask more.

It wasn't until she left Beijing that she slowly understood the meaning behind the word.

Especially what Steward Ari said.

"I'll tell you all about it slowly," the old lady smiled, motioning for her to sit down beside her, "but before that, I'll tell you something else." ”

Qiaoyu sat down obediently, but her shoulders tensed involuntarily.

Holding Qiaoyu's hand, the old lady looked at her daughter seriously: "I'm sorry." ”

Qiaoyu was stunned.

"I have to say 'I'm sorry' to you a lot," the old lady's voice was hoarse, "many, many ......"

How to tell the two children their true identity, the old lady thought many times.

What I didn't expect was that Nian Zhi had already discovered the clues, and even figured out his identity by himself.

She apologized to Nian Dao.

Now, she also has to apologize to Qiaoyu.

Although it is said that an apology cannot change any of the past, and everything has been a foregone conclusion for more than 20 years, this is the attitude.

Twenty years later, she had to do it earnestly, from the bottom of her heart.

"Why ......," Qiaoyu muttered.

Then she heard the old lady's answer.

"Because you are my own daughter, in order to protect Nianzhi's life, he became my son and your father's son, and you did not grow up with us."

------Off topic------
