Chapter 44: It's not that I gave up on my little niece

"Youqing."

After school, Youqing came out of the classroom with a book in her arms, and when she passed through the garden, she heard someone shouting her name behind her.

Youqing turned around and saw an elegant and thin figure walking out from behind the pillars.

It's Yi Shikai.

Youqing hadn't seen him for a while, only heard Yi Xuecheng say that Yi Shikai seemed to have gone to Jinling, and when he suddenly saw him, Youqing was a little surprised, and when he came back to his senses, he called, "Uncle Yi." ”

Yi Shi opened his head, his expression was gentle, and he said to Youqing, "Something happened in Jinling a few days ago, I haven't seen you for a while, are you okay?" ”

"I'm fine, thank you Uncle Yi for your concern." Youqing's voice was very polite, but it also revealed a sense of alienation.

Yi Shikai naturally noticed it, he was silent for a moment, and said, "Youqing, during this time, I really didn't mean to snub you. ”

"I know, Uncle Yi, I know that something happened to your business, and Xue Cheng told me."

"But I see that you seem to be a lot more distant from me," Yi Shikai's dark eyes stared at her, "Are you blaming me?" ”

"No," Youqing's heart was a little flustered, she raised her head to meet Yi Shikai's gaze, and said softly, "I thank you for your concern for me before, I ...... I just want to read the book well now, I can't accept your wishes, I'm sorry. ”

"Is it because of Xiao Hechuan?" Yi Shikai frowned.

Youqing's face was slightly pale, but she still told him very clearly, "It has nothing to do with Uncle Jiu, Uncle Yi, don't come to me again in the future." ”

After saying this, Youqing turned around and walked quickly out of the garden.

The person who came to deliver the food delivered the food to the door, Li Changfa took it with both hands, and when he went back to the house, he saw Xiao Hechuan bored in a circle in the house.

Li Changfa put the food on the table, he couldn't help it, and said to him, "Ninth Master, why don't you bow your head to the old lady, when will this be closed?" ”

Xiao Hechuan didn't pay attention to him, he looked at the clock and asked, "What about the little niece?" ”

"Went to school."

"Is there anyone picking you up?"

"The old lady arranged for the driver." Li Changfa sighed as he spoke, "I said Jiuye, it's not good for you to tell me who you like, why do you like Miss Youqing......"

"Does she know I'm locked up?" Xiao Hechuan interrupted him.

"Then who wouldn't know?" People outside may not know that something so big has happened in the palace, but the entire Overseer's Mansion has already spread the word.

Xiao Hechuan stopped talking, he lit a cigarette and lay down on the sofa, this little white-eyed wolf had a hard heart, he had learned it, and he knew that he was locked up, maybe she was very happy, and felt that he would not pester her.

in the kitchen.

Mama Li was busy in front of the stove, and when she heard the footsteps behind her, Mama Li turned around and looked, but she was taken aback, "Yo, Miss Youqing, why are you here?" ”

"Mother Li," Youqing was carrying an oiled paper bag in her hand, she was a little hesitant, but she still mustered up the courage to ask, "You have been delivering food to Uncle Nine these days, right?" ”

As soon as she finished asking, Youqing's face turned red, she knew that the people in the house knew that Xiao Hechuan said that she liked herself in front of everyone in the house that day, and she inquired about him like this.

"Yes," Mama Li wiped her hands and looked at Youqing with some puzzlement.

"Uncle Nine, how is he eating, has he eaten?" Youqing almost didn't dare to look at Li's mother's eyes, and she didn't know what was wrong, her nose was sour as soon as she asked this sentence, and she had to hold back stiffly.

"The ninth master has eaten less these days. Adjutant Li ate deliciously, and I saw that he had gained a lot of weight. "Mama Li told the truth.

"There is some sauce beef here, can you help me bring it in for Uncle Nine, don't say I sent it." Youqing handed over the oil paper bag in her hand, she remembered that Xiao Hechuan had inadvertently told herself that Qiao Ji beef on Dong'an Road was authentic, cut a plate, and then hit two catties of burning knives, so it was pleasant to drink and eat.

She couldn't find the burning knife, and the beef was also bought after school after begging the driver and making a special detour.

"Good. Miss Youqing," Mama Li took the paper bag, looked at Youqing's picturesque eyebrows, and couldn't help but say a few more words, "Don't blame me for being too talkative, the identities of you and the Ninth Master are here, where can you do it, you better plan for yourself early, the Ninth Master will not give up for a day, you will not be able to stay in the Xiao family for a day, the old lady and the eldest lady will always send you away." ”

Youqing nodded, "I see, thank you." ”

On the way back from the kitchen, Youqing kept thinking, why don't you go back to Nanchi, go and ask the former principal and teacher, even if it is okay to work and study, she is gone, and as the days go by, Xiao Hechuan's thoughts will fade.

Not to mention anything else, he still has that Miss Qin.

They are the right people, and they are the right people.

Youqing returned to the house a little dejected, she opened the drawer, took out a very beautiful box from it, and opened it, it was the diamond bracelet that Xiao Hechuan gave her.

The lockdown continues.

Xiao Hechuan has always been an idle person, and letting him stay in the house for a few days in the past was almost like killing him, but this time he was patient, calmed down, and never mentioned the matter of going out, and the confidential secretary ran back and forth between the military camp and the Overseer's Mansion every day, sending some important documents to him for review.

This night, Xiao Hechuan was flipping through the military book, when he heard a rush of footsteps, he raised his eyes and looked, Li Changfa rushed in with a solemn face.

"Ninth Master, something happened, the Helian family suddenly sent troops from Pingjiang and occupied Songyang Pass."

Listening to Li Changfa's words, Xiao Hechuan's expression also changed, he sat up and asked Li Changfa a person's name, "Is it Helian Chong?" ”

Li Changfa nodded, "Ninth Master, we had an agreement with Helian Chong before, and we said that the two places would be bounded by Pingjiang, and he openly raised troops this time, which was simply a backtrack!" ”

"The Helian family has always been eyeing Pingjiang, and if they capture Songyang Pass, it is equivalent to having a springboard and can attack Jincheng at any time." Xiao Hechuan's voice was low, and soon, he stood up, picked up his military uniform and put it on his body, fastened the buttons on one side, and said to Li Changfa on the other, "Without further ado, we have to rush back to the barracks." ”

"Old lady, do you want to say something?" Li Changfa asked.

"It's too late, you send someone to Dongyuan to say, the military situation on the front line is urgent, I have to go out, and when I come back, I will ask her for guilt," Xiao Hechuan finished speaking, and then added, "Besides, I went out this time to fight, not to give up my little niece." ”

Xiao Yuanchuan also learned the news, and when Xiao Hechuan arrived, he saw that he also hurriedly walked out of the main building, the brothers looked at each other, Xiao Yuanchuan didn't say anything, only greeted Xiao Hechuan, "Go." ”

Xiao Hechuan glanced towards the main building, and saw that all rooms were lit up, and there was a figure on the terrace on the second floor, which was actually Youqing.

She seemed to have just woken up from her sleep, still wearing a nightdress, she stood there looking at him, but the two of them still saw each other from such a distance, looking at each other, Xiao Hechuan seemed to engrave her in his eyes, but it was only a glance, he turned and got into the car, and the convoy left the Overseer's Mansion like an arrow from the string.
