When early autumn arrived, Jiang Ning returned to the cold palace with folded willows and snowballs.

Although it is true that living with Liu Jinfu will take care of each other, but disturbing others every day, Jiang Ning is still a little unhappy in his heart.

When they returned to the cold palace, the cold palace had returned to the appearance when she first entered the palace, a dilapidated and decaying scene.

The vegetable patch in the yard was overgrown with weeds, and the leaves were rotting all over the ground. There was a faint smell of decay. A small corner of the closed palace door had been eroded, creating a hole just enough to allow rats to enter and exit.

"This snowball has work again." Zheliu stared at the hole for a long time, and chuckled helplessly.

She rubbed Snowball's head, not knowing whether she was teasing or distressed.

is a good pet, and they have really been raised by them to be the bodyguard of the nursing home.

Jiang Ning smiled dumbly.

Xueqiu seemed to understand the words of the two, kicked Ori Willow's hand with her hind legs, jumped off Ori Willow's body, and walked towards the door with graceful steps.

The master and servant were just that, looked at each other and smiled, and hurriedly followed.

As soon as he took two steps, Jiang Ning heard a faint sound of water flowing in a corner of the courtyard.

Jiang Ning was suspicious in his heart, and walked cautiously towards the source of the sound of water.

What he saw in his eyes was Lin Zheng bending over, constantly scooping water from the small bucket beside him and watering a small vegetable patch in front of him.

The vegetable field was very small, about the width of half a bed, and the soil had been carefully cultivated, and there was an index finger-high rape planted on it, which must have been freshly planted.

When Jiang Ning walked over, Lin Zheng had just finished watering the last seedling, and the moment he looked up, the two looked at each other unexpectedly.

This glance is like a thousand years of travel.

"Mother." Lin Zheng put the bucket aside, bowed slightly and saluted her.

"Commander Lin, this is?"

"The minister thinks that Niangniang will come back after all, and he is worried that Niangniang will not have fresh vegetables to eat after she returns." As he spoke, the corner of his eye inadvertently swept over a weedy barren field not far away, and then he chuckled with some embarrassment.

"It's a pity that Chen's time is limited recently, so he can only do this."

Jiang Ning looked at the vegetable seedlings under Lin Zheng, which were only finger length, but the leaves were green and strong, and there was a little bit of crystal dew on them.

Although it was not planted for a few days, it was really well cared for.

Jiang Ning's heart was hot, but he still said with a calm expression, "Thank you, it's just that I may not be able to eat such good things." ”

Lin Zheng looked up at her, his eyes as calm as water were full of panic.

"Has the mother made up her mind?"

Jiang Ning was silent and did not answer.

"Since Commander Lin is here, let's stay for a meal by the way." She smiled, "I haven't cooked in a long time, and I don't know if I can eat what I've made now." ”

"Okay." This time, Lin Zheng also smiled.

Jiang Ning didn't say anything more, just left alone, and instructed Zheliu to go to the dining room to get vegetables and come back to cook, and he went to the dining room to clean up carefully.

By the time she returned, Lin Zheng was already playing with snowballs at the dining table in the main hall.

Snowball was lying on Lin Zheng's lap, waving her front paws, constantly scratching Lin Zheng's fingers to tease it.

And Lin Zheng also manipulated his fingers to flexibly dodge between the front paws of Snowball, grabbing the space for a while and gently knocking on the door of Snowball's head, and then going around Snowball's chin and scratching it gently.

His lips rose, and even the tense and stiff aura around him on weekdays softened.

Jiang Ning leaned against the door of the main hall and looked at them quietly, and an incomparably strange feeling arose in his heart.

The little thing of the snowball is like a switch on Lin Zheng's body, as long as he touches it lightly, he will completely become another person.

is the opposite of the cold-faced and cold-hearted commander of the forbidden army who followed behind Mu Jingzhao.

Snowball seemed to be a little tired from his tricks, drooped her head, and lazily lay down on his palm.

The cat's face was facing the direction of the door, and it saw Jiang Ning's "meow" and screamed.

Lin Zheng followed its line of sight and turned his head to look, just in time to see Jiang Ning standing at the door with a smile on his face.

Lin Zheng's cheeks were slightly red, and his face suddenly showed a sense of helplessness to be exposed on the spot for doing bad things.

He picked up the snowball, put it aside, and bowed to Jiang Ning, "Niangniang." ”

"Well, I'm ready, I can cook when I come back with the vegetables." She walked into the house under Lin Zheng's gaze, "It's a pity that I've been in this house for too long, and there is no tea to serve you." ”

"It's okay."

Jiang Ning sat down next to Lin Zheng, she held her chin, turned her head to look out the window, and didn't look at Lin Zheng's face, trying to free him from such embarrassment.

"When I heard that the palace change a few days ago was dangerous and abnormal, I felt guilty."

"It's not your fault." Jiang Ning smiled dumbly, but he really didn't feel that there was anything dangerous about those things in his heart.

Everything that happened during that time was like a heavy, muddled nightmare.

Although it was painful, there was no real feeling.

"I heard that Niangniang hurt Lord Shen for the emperor."

Jiang Ning smiled dumbly, "I hurt Lord Shen, but not for the emperor, but for myself." ”

"These things shouldn't be done by the mother." Lin Zheng muttered, "Niangniang's hands shouldn't be stained with blood and killing. ”

She suddenly turned her head to look at Lin Zheng, tilted her head and smiled, the corners of her eyes and eyebrows were full of girlish playfulness.

"In the past 17 years, nothing has made me happier than revenge."

Lin Zheng was stunned.

Outside the door on the side, the girl's crisp voice came.

"Niangniang, I'm back, I heard that we are going to entertain guests, and the dining room gave the slave maid a lot of things."

As soon as Snowball heard this, she quickly meowed and greeted her.

Jiang Ning immediately got up and saluted Lin Zheng.

"Thank you Commander Lin for everything you have done for me and for my family."

Lin Zheng looked at her quietly, did not say anything as before, and humbly said that he should do this.

After Jiang Ning finished speaking, he trotted towards Zheliu.

It wasn't until Jiang Ning walked away that Lin Zheng came back to his senses in a daze.

"It's okay." He whispered.

Jiang Ning's meal was quite hearty.

She used almost every ingredient brought by Zheliu as much as she could, and made a big table with a full budget.

It's a celebration for yourself.

Before eating, Jiang Ning instructed Zheliu to invite Lu Feng, Zheliu looked very reluctant, but he still reluctantly obeyed Jiang Ning's instructions.

When Jiang Ning put the last soup dish on the table, Zheliu was walking into the courtyard with Lu Feng.

This was the first time she had seen Lu Feng during this time. (End of chapter)
