Yi'er brought a bowl of rice and two dishes into Gao Ziang's house early, and he fell asleep without eating a few bites. After a morning of hard work, Gao Ziang was in the room to make up for sleep. Two hours later, although he was still groggy when he woke up, he was much better than when he knelt in his father's study for the night.

He got up and sat down at the round table, poured himself a cup of tea, and took two large sips. Then he put down the teacup and turned to the side, preoccupied. He sighed and stared ahead with a blank look in his eyes.

In the middle of the night, he realized that it was not yet time for lunch, and what he had to do now was to go to his father and thank him.

He walked out of his yard, came to the upper room, and knelt down again in front of Gao Junming: "Thank you, father." ”

His father did not embarrass him: "Get up." Kneeling all night and still haven't knelt enough? I didn't kneel enough, so I'll kneel again tonight. ”

Xie Xiwen hurriedly gave Jin'er a look and ordered her to go over and help the young master up.

Gao Junming glanced at him twice, as if he didn't care about anything, turned around and spit out three words: "Let's eat." ”

After lunch, he originally wanted to rest again, but he was not sure in his heart, so he asked Yi'er to go to Wanning together.

As soon as he walked to the door of Xiaoyaoju, Gao Ziang told Yi'er that he should not tell Wanning about last night, and don't tell her about her father returning the Li family's ancestral house to her.

Didn't the young master explain last night in the master's study that he didn't tell Miss Wanning? People are not old, and their memory is not good? It is probably the reason why the young master didn't sleep all night, and he didn't make up for sleep. Yi'er was stunned for a moment and let out an "oh".

When Wan Ning saw the two, she was taken aback. Both of them were very haggard, especially Brother Ziang, whose face was pale and had heavy dark circles under his eyes. "What's wrong with you? The face is so ugly. ”

"Young master last night-" Yi'er just wanted to tell the truth casually, but suddenly thought of the young master's command, and saw Gao Ziang looking at him with fierce eyes, and swallowed back the words that came to his mouth.

"The young master didn't rest well last night, and he was very tired during the day today."

Hearing Yi'er say this, Gao Ziang slowly retracted his gaze. Wan Ning saw that her brother was indeed very tired, and she wanted to say that she was tired and didn't rest in the room, so she came? But when he thought about it, he came because he cared about himself, so he said, "Then come and rest for a while." ”

As her voice fell, Yi'er was suddenly happy, waiting for your words.

Yi'er helped the young master into Wanning's house and let him lie down on the bed.

"Yi'er, seeing that you are also tired, you should also go and rest." Wan Ning said.

"Yi'er obeys orders, the young master has you to serve, and the little one can rest assured." With that, he withdrew.

Wan Ning sat next to Brother Ziang, and there was a bit of blame in her tone: "Really, how can you not rest well?" ”

Gao Ziang held Wan Ning's hands and said with a smile: "Because Sister Wan is not by my side." ”

Wan Ning looked at him and said, "You know the poor mouth!" She thought about it carefully, "No, why can't Yi'er sleep with you too?" ”

Gao Ziang grabbed her hand and pulled her over violently, he quickly dodged to the side, moved out of a place, and Wan Ning fell on the bed. And as soon as he turned over, he smoothly pressed Wan Ning under him.

The panicked Wan Ning used her limited strength to push him: "In broad daylight, don't make trouble." You still have business tonight, so don't you get some rest yet. In your state, you may be scolded when the time comes. ”

Gao Ziang stared at her for a moment, Wan Ning was thinking about him all the time, and the corners of her mouth gradually smiled: "Then you have to kiss me before I can let you go." ”

Wan Ning's eyes drifted with disdain, there was really no righteousness! But she still snuggled up to him, and her lips gently touched his cheek, and when he seemed to be infinitely intoxicated, she jerked him away, got up and got out of bed. "Okay, I'm not going to mess with you. You sleep quietly, your sister is by your side. ”

"By the way, why did Yi'er go last night? Why didn't he sleep well? Wan Ning asked again.

This Wan sister, I can't hide from you anymore. Gao Ziang complained in his heart, and only prevaricated: "I didn't sleep well as the master, but he can sleep well?" ”

"You're just going to bully the righteous." Wan Ning pulled a thin quilt over him and covered him, "Forget it, don't talk about it, you can rest quickly." ”

Gao Ziang himself felt strange, he couldn't sleep in the house, and he felt sleepy when he came to Wanning to lie down here for a while. As soon as he saw Wan Ning, he seemed to have lost his mind, and naturally fell asleep.

said that he would guard him, Wan Ning quietly moved a chair next to the bed, and sat down quietly to do needlework. It was a navy blue coat with fleece on the inside, but she had already done almost it, except for some ornamentation embroidered with gold thread on the sleeves.

She hopes to finish it before her brother wakes up.

Time passed unconsciously, and Wan Ning gradually felt that the light in the room was insufficient, and she realized that the sun was already tilting to the west. She can't light candles and will disturb her brother's sleep. Be sure to do it before dark, there's only a little bit left anyway.

Therefore, he became more and more immersed in his own work, and he didn't even find out when Gao Ziang woke up.

When Wan Ning inadvertently looked at the bed, Gao Ziang was holding his head with one hand and looked at her with a slight smile: "Sister Wan, you are so serious, what are you doing?" ”

"Are you awake?" Wan Ning saw him wake up this time, and his complexion improved a lot, "You leave later, the night breeze will be very cold, I will make a big one, and my brother will put it on his body when he leaves." ”

"So you're in a hurry?"

"Where?" Wan Ning lifted her head, "Look, this is all done, isn't it?" ”

Gao Zi stood up and wanted to hug her. Wan Ning felt that this was a good time for him to try it on, so she draped it over him. "Brother, put it on and try it on, does it fit?"

Gao Ziang didn't answer her, he wrapped his hands around Wan Ning's slender waist and tightly wrapped the entire jade body in his arms: "Wan Ning, do you remember that you promised to marry me before?" If one day, you return to the Li Mansion and return to your own home, you must not forget what you said earlier. ”

His words were so sudden that Wan Ning was a little overwhelmed.

Gao Ziang saw her thoughts, so he replied, "What does this kind of clothing do not fit?" Besides, how can the garment you made for me not fit? ”

"Isn't that afraid that you won't feel comfortable wearing it?"

"No, it won't."

He hugged Wan Ning tightly, without the slightest intention of letting go, Wan Ning simply stretched out his hands and hugged him. It was already getting dark, and the candles in the house should have been lit a long time ago, and his warmth was the candle that illuminated the whole world.

Wan Ning ordered the kitchen to cook more food for one person early in the morning, and Gao Ziang ate dinner here at Wan Ning. After that, he had to go back to Gaofu to change his clothes before he could enter the palace.

On the way back to Gaofu, as Wan Ning said, the weather was getting colder, and the night wind was already making people feel biting.

He instructed Yi'er beside him: "Yi'er, don't let Wanning know that I asked my father to return the Li family's ancestral house." Tell Uncle Zhong about the Li family's ancestral house, and Uncle Zhong knows what to say and do. ”

"Understood, young master."

Half a month later, Uncle Zhong told Wanning the good news. He just said that the old man of the Gao family cared about the old relationship between the two families, and he couldn't bear to see the people of the Li family, especially the eldest lady, upside down.

On the day of the move, Gao Ziang naturally arrived. He wanted to see the joy on Wan Ning's face, and that smile would make him feel extremely reassured.

Wan Ning moved back with her subordinates this time. Although someone moved things for her, she was also tired enough when her belongings were moved into the house, both large and small.

To catch her breath, she sat on the box. Gao Ziang, who was originally beside her, also sat down beside her, tilted his head and asked, "Moved back, are you happy?" ”

Wan Ning nodded: "Well, happy." However, as soon as she finished speaking, her smile narrowed a little in an instant, "Hmph, it's all my uncle's fault for driving me around." ”

"Okay, okay, it's all his fault, I've suffered it for him, okay?"

Wan Ning didn't answer him.

I heard Gao Ziang say again: "I want to tell you the most important thing, do you remember what you told me in this room?" ”

"Say what?"

"You said you wanted to be with me forever."

Wan Ning suddenly thought of the rainy night she was with her brother, and the smile on the corner of her lips could not be hidden. But his soft cheeks were already flushed with shame, and he didn't want to answer anything, just turned sideways.

Gao Ziang's performance puzzled Gao Ziang, so he asked, "What do you mean?" If you're happy, you don't want to ignore me, and if you're not happy, you don't want to ignore me. ”

Wan Ning didn't say a word, and still sat dumbfounded.
