The early stall had already been set up outside the city gate, and the wine shop was still there, "Boss, come here for two catties of beef, a pot of good wine, take it away." ”

The boss still greeted so warmly, and soon packed it with butter paper, Lu Xiaoqi carried wine and meat into the city, and the teahouses, butchers, tea shops, taverns, pawnshops, and workshops on both sides of the street all opened their doors early in the morning, and there were still those stall vendors in the open spaces on both sides of the street, extending to the east and west.

The newly lit sunlight faintly spread on the red bricks and green tiles and the eaves of the pavilion, adding a bit of hazy and poetic to the prosperous morning scene of the capital in front of you.

After passing the steamed bun bean curd stall where I once brought my brother, the steaming was already full of people who got up early to catch up with work, and there were still people walking on the street looking like fortune tellers, sparkling cars and horses, the flow of people was weaving, and the vendor's penetrating shouting, and occasionally there was a long neighing of horses, Lu Xiaoqi couldn't help but stop, and his complicated eyes wanted to penetrate into the Chenwang Mansion that passed by.

At the current Guogong Mansion, Qiqiao also got up early to prepare clothes for Lu Xiuran, since she came back, Lu Yuqiu asked him to do things in his courtyard, I don't know if it was because Lu Yuqiu's conscience found out that Qiqiao and Lu Xiaoqi had suffered over the years, so he was merciful and let her stay in Lu Xiu's dyeing courtyard to serve.

Lu Xiaoqi still didn't go to the main gate, and climbed over the wall where she used to go out and play with Qiqiao in the past, and there was no one in the back alley at this time, Lu Xiaoqi threw the meat and wine over first, she knew that there must be a haystack in that place, so she couldn't break it if she threw it on the haystack.

Lu Xiaoqi climbed up the wall very easily, but what he didn't expect was that someone was standing there, holding a basin of washing water, only to hear a "bang", the basin fell to the ground, and the water spilled and wet the shoes and socks.

The man was shocked and excited, the tears that were originally swirling ran out of her eyes after a while, she didn't believe that the person in front of her was a ghost, although this dress was men's clothes, but Qiqiao still recognized it, and shouted in a trembling voice: "Miss......"

"Long time no see." Lu Xiaoqi smiled with moist eyes, jumped on the haystack, went down to hug Qiqiao, Qiqiao also hugged her, she was also worried about Qiqiao this year, I don't know how she was doing, Qiqiao sniffed hard, "Miss, where have you been for more than a year?" He let go of her arm and smiled, "I'm going to find my uncle." ”

"Then why don't you send a letter home, we're worried about you." Lu Xiaoqi Zheng Ran, I don't know what to say, I thought about letting my uncle or Wen Yuesheng pass the news to Qiqiao and my brother, but I thought that I might not meet in the future, let them know that I am still here, it is better to let them slowly forget, but things are far from what they thought, and even they did not think that they would change their minds and return to the capital.

"Let's not talk about it yet, let's go, Qiqiao will take you to see Childe, you know, Childe cares about you every day." But Qiqiao didn't pull her hand, but was pulled over by Lu Xiaoqi, "Qiqiao, don't tell anyone about my return." ”

Qiqiao nodded and agreed, and the two quietly entered Lu Xiuran's room while it was still early, and saw that Lu Xiuran was already sitting on the table reading a book, his eyes were red and left a tear, "Brother." ”

The man raised his head suddenly, he couldn't believe that this young man dressed as a man was his sister, Lu Xiaoqi stood in front of him, stood up, walked to the front, and touched her face, it was warm, not an illusion, she should have jumped up happily, but her heart was full of waves, but her face stiffly evoked a smile, "Xiaoqi, you are back." ”

"Yes, brother, I'm back."

There are thousands of things in the chest, and there is nothing to say when we meet.

In the past year, Lu Xiaoqi had saved up a lot of words to say to Lu Xiuran, but until they met, they didn't know where to start, and now they can't even say a word.

"Xiaoqi, where have you been for so long, why haven't you come back?" Lu Xiuran pulled Lu Xiaoqi to sit down, very concerned about how she was doing for more than a year, whether she was hungry and cold, she felt a little guilty in her heart, she was sorry for the people who cared about her, "For more than a year, I went out for a walk, did I come back unharmed." ”

"However, brother, Xiaoqi wants to ask you to help me hide it, and don't tell the public about my return." Lu Xiuran nodded, he knew, knew that she didn't want to see those she didn't want to see.

"Are you still leaving? Let's not go. ”

"Well, no, but I can't live here." Lu Xiaoqi told the truth and told Lu Xiuran that she would write to him when she settled down.

"But my father is also very concerned about you, in the year you have been gone, my father has asked someone to secretly check the news of you, and there has been no news, he is also very anxious, do you want to tell him......" Lu Xiuran asked for her consent.

Lu Xiaoqi's eyes froze instantly, not knowing what he was thinking, and then he took Lu Xiuran's hand and smiled coldly, "No, I will appear in front of him when the time is right." ”

Lu Xiuran knew that Lu Xiaoqi had not forgiven his father, so he could only say it for the time being.

also knows that although Xiaoqi seems to be soft and weak, the stubbornness in her bones is very similar to her father, if something touches her bottom line, she will solve it in her way, there is no doubt about it.

"Brother, I have to go."

"Let's go after dinner."

"Nope." Lu Xiaoqi took the pot of wine and two catties of beef he just mentioned from the side, and patted the beef outsourcing, "My rice is packed, this beef is delicious, I have time to take you to eat." ”

Lu Xiaoqi walked out with the beef, changed back to a lively and naughty mode, and gave Lu Xiuran a bear hug in a jump, "Let's go, don't come out." ”

Lu Xiaoqi closed the door for him, if his brother came out to send it, it would be too attention-grabbing, anyway, there will be a chance to meet again in the future.

How did you come and how to get out, Lu Xiaoqi still climbed out from the low wall, he could climb out before, and it was easier to climb out than the current Lu Xiaoqi.

The sun was already hanging overhead, and today's sun was not very hot, Lu Xiaoqi walked to the street, went to a shop, and came out empty-handed after a while.

Chenwang's Mansion

"Lord, the princess has returned to the principality's mansion, but she only stayed for a stick of incense and came out again, went to a teahouse, and came out again after a while, I don't know what to do." Ah Wu replied, Xiao Yichen stared.

"What? I'm sure I'd like to see the house. A young man opened the door and looked out, and looked at the person outside the door was a young man about twenty years old, "Where did the little doll come from, the tone is so big, do you know how much money is in a house, so you say that you want to see the house." ”
