Xiao Wenyue turned her eyes and saw a quiet and delicate girl standing in the restaurant, her eyes lit up, and she said with a smile, "This is Sister Youqing?" ”

"Yes, Yueyue, she is Youqing," Pang Shi walked to Youqing's side with a smile, and quietly pushed Youqing, signaling Youqing to go to Xiao Wenyue's side.

Youqing came back to her senses and walked closer to Xiao Wenyue, she didn't know what to call her, it stands to reason that she was going to call Xiao Wenyue a sister, but Xiao Wenyue is the real daughter of the Xiao family, what is she? When she was in Nanchi, it was Xiao Hechuan who took the lead in calling her "little niece", so she dared to call Uncle Jiu.

"Sister Youqing is really good-looking, and they all say that the water and soil in Nanchi raise people, but they don't send a jade person to me." Xiao Wenyue looked at Youqing's white and flawless cheeks, smiled and held Youqing's hand.

Seeing Xiao Wenyue's eyes with a kind smile, Youqing's heart was slightly relieved, and she shouted, "Big sister." ”

"Hey." Xiao Wenyue responded with a smile, took Youqing's hand and sat down at the dining table with Xiao Yuanchuan and his wife, her voice was gentle, she only said that she was idle on weekdays, and she wanted Youqing to go to her yard more if she had nothing to do.

Youqing agreed very obediently, looking at Xiao Wenyue's warm eyebrows, so far, Xiao Yuanchuan, Xiao Wenyue, including Xiao Hechuan, and the people of the Xiao family have left a very good impression on her.

At least...... Youqing glanced at her mother quietly, at least, she felt that they were even more kind to her than her mother was to her.

The servants rushed in and brought breakfast to the table one by one.

"Why hasn't Lao Jiu come yet?" Xiao Yuanchuan glanced at the wall clock next to him and asked the messenger behind him.

"Overseer, the ninth brother has always liked to sleep lazy, and I'm afraid he hasn't woken up yet." Pang Shi on the side served a bowl of soup for Xiao Yuanchuan and said with a smile.

"Yes," Xiao Yuanchuan also hooked his lips, for this younger brother who is a compatriot but nearly twenty years younger than himself, Xiao Yuanchuan has always been tolerant and spoiled, which is not much different from his own children.

"Go back and have someone go to his yard and have a look, so that he can wake up." Xiao Yuanchuan commanded, and as soon as the words fell, he heard a clear male voice coming in, "Don't look, I'm here by myself." ”

Youqing was familiar with this voice, she raised her eyes and saw Xiao Hechuan striding in, his shoulders were wide and his legs were long, his sword eyebrows were handsome, and there was a two-point smile on the corner of his lips, which attracted several little maids in the restaurant to look at him secretly.

Seeing him, Xiao Wenyue was just about to get up, but Xiao Hechuan had already said to her, "Yueyue, you are not in good shape, sit down quickly." ”

After greeting his eldest niece, Xiao Hechuan turned his eyes and looked at Youqing, "The little niece is also there." ”

"Uncle Nine." Youqing hurriedly got up.

Xiao Hechuan waved his hand and asked her to sit down too.

"Big brother, sister-in-law." Xiao Hechuan took a seat, said hello to his brother and sister-in-law, and soon a messenger served him breakfast.

The brothers chatted while eating, and naturally talked about military matters, if it weren't for the presence of Xiao Wenyue and Youqing, Xiao Hechuan would have been eager to scold a few swear words.

The adults were talking, Youqing naturally didn't dare to interject, she lowered her head and quietly ate the meal in front of her, but suddenly Xiao Yuanchuan's eyes looked at her and asked her, "By the way, child, what grade are you studying?" ”

Youqing put down the dishes and chopsticks and sat up straight, "Uncle Xiao, I'm in my second year of high school." ”

"Oh," Xiao Yuanchuan nodded, and instructed his younger brother, "Lao Jiu, I remember that you have a good relationship with Principal Qi, you say hello to him and send this child to study in a Chinese and Western girls' school." ”

Xiao Hechuan glanced at Youqing and said to Xiao Yuanchuan, "Big brother, you also know, I just came back from Nanchi, and there are a lot of things in the camp pestering me, I want to help my little niece, but how can I be free." ”

Xiao Yuanchuan smiled, knowing that this kid was asking for leave from himself, he nodded and said, "Then give you a few days off, you should have a good rest, and you will accompany her more when you have time from your mother." ”

"Cheng," after listening to the eldest brother's words, Xiao Hechuan's eyes lit up, and he said to Youqing, "Little niece, your reading is on me." ”

Youqing is also very happy, she didn't dare to laugh openly, only dared to show a shallow laugh, but the smile in her eyes couldn't be hidden, her heart was hanging on the way to Beijiang, I don't know if she can continue to study after getting the Overseer's Mansion, now Xiao Yuanchuan's brother's words are like giving her a reassuring pill, it's always good to have a book to read, she needs to be self-reliant, only if she has knowledge, can she not have to look at the faces of others, in order to control her own life.

At night.

Youqing entered the small hall and shouted softly to Pang Zi, "Mother." ”

Pang Zi raised his head and glanced at her, and said with a slight bow, "Ming'er is going to school, have you packed up your things?" ”

"It's all packed up, Uncle Nine helped me complete the formalities, and I'll just go to school to report directly tomorrow." Youqing said softly.

"Well, Zhongxi Girls' High School is the top girls' school in Jincheng, you have to study hard after you enter, don't lose my face." Pang Shi Yin advised, listening to her words, Youqing couldn't say it in her heart, she thought that her mother had something to say to her when she asked her to come over tonight, but she didn't think about it, all she cared about was her face.

Is it true that he only has face left for his mother? For the sake of face, I had to take her to my side. For the sake of face, she had to be sent to the best school.

"Mom!"

Just when Youqing was thinking nonsense, a childish child's voice came into her ears, Youqing turned to look, and saw a boy about seven or eight years old running in from outside, followed by several maids and grandmothers behind him, Pang Zi just saw the child, the look in her eyes suddenly became gentle, she opened her arms and took the boy in her arms, and shouted with pity, "Why is Lin'er here?" ”

"I miss my mom and tell my grandma I want to come see you." The boy who called Lin'er was nestled in Pang Zi's arms, this child was the youngest son born to Pang Shi and Xiao Yuanchuan, and he had always been raised in the courtyard of Old Lady Xiao, and it was the first time that Youqing had seen him in the Overseer's Mansion for a few days.

"Mother also misses Lin'er," Pang Zi smiled, his eyebrows were full of love and gentleness, and he hugged the little boy in his arms, Youqing stood aside and looked at it in a daze, Lin'er looked at Youqing with some curiosity, and asked her mother, "Mom, who is she?" ”

Pang Zi also glanced at Youqing, stroked his son's head and said, "She is your Youqing's sister." ”

Lin'er flattened her mouth, "Oh, that southern barbarian." “

"Lin'er," Pang shook his head lightly and said softly, "You can't talk like that. ”

"Hmph, Mom is my own!" Lin'er was dissatisfied with her eyes, and hugged her mother like a declaration of sovereignty, and looked at Youqing with hostility.

Pang Zi patted his son's back, as if he was very satisfied with his son's attachment to him, the corners of her lips smiled, and she instructed Youqing, "Okay, you go down first." ”

Youqing's heart was sour, and when she walked to the door, she couldn't help but look back again, and saw Pang Zi holding a piece of dim sum and feeding Lin'er there, Xu is child doesn't like to eat, Pang Zi hurriedly picked up other snacks to feed him.

Youqing didn't know if her mother had fed her like this when she was a child, she thought, maybe...... There have been, too.

She lowered her eyes and left silently.
